Deuteronomy 12
1 These are the statutes and the regulations which ye must observe to do, in the land which Yahweh the God of thy fathers hath given unto thee, to possess it, —all the days that ye are living upon the soil:
Nangmouh ni talai dawk na hring nathung na coe awh nahanelah, na mintoenaw ni a bawk awh e BAWIPA Cathut ni na poe e ram dawk na tarawi awh hane phunglawknaw hoi lawkcengnae hateh,
2 Ye must utterly destroy, all the places where the nations whom ye are dispossessing have served their gods, —Upon the high mountains And upon the hills, And under every green tree;
nangmouh ni na uk awh e miphunnaw ni, bawknae monnaw, monruinaw dawk e thingkungnaw rahim kaawm e cathutnaw hai thoseh, bawknae hmuen puenghai thoseh koung na raphoe pouh awh han.
3 And ye must tear down their altars And break in pieces their pillars, And, their sacred stems, must ye consume with fire, And the carved images of their gods, must ye fell to the ground, —And destroy their name out of that place.
Ahnimae thuengnae khoungroenaw hai na raphoe pouh han. Meikaphawknaw hai na raphoe pouh han. Asherimnaw hai hmai hoi na sawi pouh han. Ahnimae cathut kutsaknaw hah na tâtueng awh han. Hote hmuen dawk hote cathut min na raphoe awh han.
4 Ye must not do thus unto Yahweh your God;
Hot patet lae hnonaw hno lahoi BAWIPA Cathut na bawk awh mahoeh.
5 but, unto the place which Yahweh your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, —as his habitation, shall ye ask your way, and come in thither;
Hateiteh, BAWIPA Cathut ni na miphun thung hoi a min ao nahanelah, a rawi e hmuen hah na tawng awh vaiteh hote hmuen koe na cei awh han.
6 and bring in thither your ascending-offerings and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the heave-offering of your hand, —and your vow-offerings and your freewill-offerings, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock;
Hote hmuen koe nangmouh ni hmaisawi thuengnae naw hoi pung hra pung touh thueng e hno, kahek e hno lawkkamnae hoi kâkuen e thueng e hno, mahmawk sak e thueng e hno hoi maito, hmaloe ka khe e tunaw hah na thokhai awh han.
7 and shall eat there before Yahweh your God, and rejoice in all whereunto ye are putting your hand, Ye, and your households, —wherewith Yahweh thy God hath blessed thee.
Hote hmuen koe nangmae BAWIPA Cathut hmalah na ca awh han. Na sak nah tangkuem dawk nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe dawkvah, nangmouh teh, nama hoi na imthungnaw, na kut hoi na tawk e naw pueng dawkvah na lunghawi han.
8 Ye must not do according to all that we are doing here to-day, —every man, whatsoever is right in his own eyes.
Atu e tueng, hete hmuen koe na sak e patetlah hote hmuen koe tami pueng ma pouknae rumram hoi na sak awh mahoeh.
9 Because ye have not entered as yet, —into the resting-place and into the inheritance which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh teh, kâhatnae ram dawk thoseh, nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni râw lah na poe e ram dawk thoseh, na kâen awh hoeh rah.
10 But, when ye shall pass over the Jordan, and settle down in the land which, Yahweh your God, is causing you to inherit, —and he shall give you rest from all your enemies round about, and ye shall dwell securely,
Nangmouh teh Jordan palang na raka awh toteh, na coe awh hane nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni râw lah na poe e ram dawk na o awh vaiteh, tarannaw e kut dawk hoi nangmouh na rungngang teh karoumcalah na o awh han.
11 then shall it be, that unto the place which Yahweh your God shall choose to make a habitation for his name there, thither, shall ye bring in all that I am commanding you, —your ascending-offerings and your sacrifices your tithes and the heave-offering of your hand, and all your chosen vow-offerings which ye shall vow unto Yahweh.
A min ao nahanelah, nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni a rawi e hmuen haw vah ao han. Hote hmuen koe kai ni lawk na thui e patetlah nangmae hmaisawi thuengnae, satheinaw, pung hra pung touh, na kut hoi na sak e hnonaw, BAWIPA koe lawk na kam e patetlah lawkkam e naw pueng hah na thokhai awh han.
12 So shall ye rejoice before Yahweh your God, Ye, and your sons, and your daughters, and your servants and your handmaids, —and the Levite that is within your gates, forasmuch as he hath neither portion nor inheritance with you.
Namamouh hoi nangmae capanaw, canunaw, sanpanaw, sannunaw, râw pang hane ao hoeh dawkvah, nangmae longkha thung kaawm e Levihnaw hoi cungtalah nangmae BAWIPA Cathut hmalah na lunghawi awh han.
13 Take heed to thyself, lest thou cause thine ascending-sacrifice to go up in just any place which thou shalt see;
Nangmouh teh, na hmu awh e hmuen pueng dawk hmaisawi thuengnae na sak awh hoeh nahanelah, na kâhruetcuet awh han.
14 but, in the place which Yahweh shall choose in one of thy tribes, there, shalt thou cause thine ascending-sacrifice to go up, and, there, shalt thou do all that I am commanding thee.
Hatei, nange miphun thung dawk hoi phun touh koe kaawm e BAWIPA ni a rawi e hmuen dawkvah hmaisawi thuengnae hah na sak han. Hote hmuen koevah, kai ni lawk na thui e naw pueng hah na sak awh han.
15 Howbeit of anything thy soul desireth, mayest thou sacrifice and so eat flesh—according to the blessing of Yahweh thy God which he hath bestowed upon thee, in all thy gates, the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, —as the gazelle and as the hart,
Hatnavah, BAWIPA Cathut ni yawhawi na poe e patetlah na onae kho tangkuem kaawm e na ca ngai e pueng na thei vaiteh longkha ca thainae kâ na tawn awh. Kathounge hoi kathounghoehe ni hai sayuk sakhi patetlah hote moi hah a ca thai.
16 Howbeit, the blood, shall ye not eat, —upon the earth, shalt thou pour it out, like water.
Hatnavah, a thi na cat awh mahoeh. Tui rabawk e patetlah talai dawk na rabawk awh han.
17 Thou mayest not eat within thy gates, the tithe of thy corn or of thy new wine or of thine oil, or the firstlings of thy herd, or of thy flock, —nor any of thy vow-offerings which thou shalt vow, nor thy freewill, offerings, nor the heave-offering of thy hand;
Na kho thung kaawm e nange cakang, nange misurtui, nange satui, nange maito, nange tu camin, lawk na kam e nange lawkkam abuemlah, na mahmawk na poe hno, na kut hoi na sak e hno pung hra pung touh hah na cat mahoeh.
18 but before Yahweh thy God, shalt thou eat it in the place which Yahweh thy God shall choose, thou and thy son and thy daughter, and thy servant and thy handmaid, and the Levite who is within thy gates, —so shalt thou rejoice before Yahweh thy God, in all whereunto thou puttest thy hand.
Hatei, nama hoi cungtalah, nange capa, nange canu, nange sanpa, nange sannu, nange longkha thung kaawm e Levihnaw ni nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ma ni a rawi e hmuen koe nangmae BAWIPA Cathut e hmalah na ca awh han.
19 Take heed to thyself, lest thou forsake the Levite, —all thy days upon thy soil.
Na ram thung na o awh roukrak, Levih miphunnaw na pahnim awh hoeh nahanelah kâhruetcuet awh.
20 When Yahweh thy God shall enlarge thy boundary—as he hath spoken unto thee—and thou shalt say. I would eat flesh because thy soul desireth to eat flesh, of whatsoever thy soul desireth, mayest thou eat flesh.
Nange BAWIPA Cathut ni nang hanelah lawkkam e patetlah na ram ramri a kaw sak toteh, nang ni moi ka cat haw nei telah na ti vaiteh, na lungthin ni moi ca hane a ngai dawkvah, nang ni na lungngai e patetlah moi na ca han.
21 When the place which Yahweh thy God shall choose to put his name there, shall be, too far for thee, then shalt thou sacrifice of thy herd or of thy flock which Yahweh hath given unto thee, as I have commanded thee, —and shalt eat, within thine own gates, of whatsoever thy soul desireth.
Nangmae BAWIPA Cathut ni a min ao nahanelah na rawi pouh e hmuen teh, nang hoi hlatpoung pawiteh, nang koe ka dei e patetlah BAWIPA ni na poe e maito hoi tu hah na thei vaiteh, na longkha thungvah na lungngai patetlah na ca thai.
22 Even as the gazelle and the hart is eaten, so, shalt thou eat it, —the unclean and the clean, alike shall eat it.
Sayuk sakhi moi na ca e patetlah hote moi hah na ca thai. Kathounge hoi kathounghoehe ni hai hote moi hah reirei a ca thai.
23 Howbeit firmly refrain from eating the blood; for the blood, is the life, —therefore must thou not eat the life with the flesh.
A thi na ca awh hoeh nahanelah kâhruetcuet sak awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, thi teh hringnae doeh. Hringnae hoi a moi reirei na cat mahoeh.
24 Thou shalt not eat it, —upon the earth, shalt thou pour it out, like water.
Na cat awh roeroe mahoeh. Tui rabawk e patetlah talai dawk na rabawk han.
25 Thou shalt not eat it, —that it may be well with thee and with thy children after thee when thou shalt do that which is right in the eyes of Yahweh.
Nang teh BAWIPA e hmalah kalan e hno hah na sak dawkvah, nang hoi cungtalah, na catounnaw hawinae na coe awh nahan, a thi hah na cat awh mahoeh.
26 Howbeit, thy holy things which thou shalt have and thy vow-offerings, shalt thou take and come in, unto the place which Yahweh shall choose;
Nang dawk kaawm e kathounge hnonaw hoi nange lawkkamnaw dueng hah na sin vaiteh, BAWIPA ni a rawi e hmuen koe na cet awh.
27 and shalt offer thine ascending-sacrifices, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of Yahweh thy God, —and the blood of thine [other] sacrifices, shall be poured out upon the altar of Yahweh thy God, and then the flesh, shalt thou eat.
A moi hoi a thi na kalawt vaiteh, nange BAWIPA Cathut e hmaisawi thuengnae khoungroe van na thueng han. Sathei e a thi hah nange BAWIPA Cathut e thuengnae khoungroe van na awi vaiteh, a moi hah na ca han.
28 Observe and hear all these things which I am commanding thee, —that it may be well with thee and with thy children after thee, —unto times age-abiding, so long as thou shalt do that which is pleasing and right in the eyes of Yahweh thy God.
Nange BAWIPA Cathut hmalah kahawi ni teh kalan e hno na sak dawkvah, nang hoi na catounnaw hoi cungtalah, hawinae pou na coe awh nahan, nang koe kâ na poe e hete lawknaw hah na tarawi nahanelah kâhruetcuet loe.
29 When Yahweh thy God shall cut off from before thee, the nations Whom thou art going in to dispossess, —and thou do dispossess them, and dwell in their land,
Na cei vaiteh na coe hane ram dawk kaawm e miphunnaw hah, nange BAWIPA Cathut ni na hmalah a raphoe toteh, nang ni ahnimanaw hah na pâlei vaiteh, ahnimae ram dawk kho na sak han.
30 take heed to thyself lest thou be thrust after them, after they have been destroyed from before thee, —and lest thou enquire after their gods, saying—In what manner, did these nations serve their gods, that, I too, may do likewise?
Na hmalah ahnimouh a rawk awh hnukkhu, ahnimouh ni a sak awh e patetlah na sak awh teh na yon awh hoeh nahanelah, hete miphunnaw ni amamae cathut hah bangtelamaw a bawk awh, kai hai hottelah ka bawk van han telah dei teh, ahnimae cathut kong pacei hoeh nahanelah mahoima kâhruetcuet loe.
31 Thou shalt not do likewise unto Yahweh thy God, —for everything that is an abomination unto Yahweh which he doth hate, have they done unto their gods, for even their sons and their daughters, do they consume with fire unto their gods.
Ahnimouh ni a sak awh e patetlah na BAWIPA Cathut koe na sak awh mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA Cathut ni a ngaihoeh e panuettho e hno hah amamae cathut koe a sak awh teh, amamae capanaw hoi canunaw patenghai amamae cathut hanelah hmai a sawi awh.
32 Whatsoever be the thing which I am commanding you, the same, shall ye observe to do, —thou shalt neither add thereunto, nor take away therefrom.
Nang teh kai ni kâ na poe e pueng hah na sak nahanelah na kâhruetcuet han. Nang ni bout thapsin hanh, bout rayu hanh.
