Deuteronomy 18
1 Neither the priests the Levites [nor] any of the tribe of Levi, shall have either portion or inheritance with Israel, —the altar-flames of Yahweh and his inheritance, shall they eat.
“Mwet tol ac mwet nukewa ke sruf lal Levi ac fah wangin ip lalos ke facl lun mwet Israel; a elos ac moulkin mwe sang ac mwe kisa saya ma itukyang nu sin LEUM GOD.
2 But inheritance, shall he not have, in the midst of his brethren, —Yahweh, is his inheritance, as he spake unto him.
Ac fah wangin acn selos, tia oana sruf ngia. Ip lalos pa elos mukena sriyukla in oru orekma lun mwet tol lun LEUM GOD, oana ke LEUM GOD El wulela.
3 This, therefore shall be the due of the priests from the people from them who offer the sacrifice whether ox or lamb, —there shall be given unto the priest, the shoulder and the two cheeks and the maw:
“Pacl nukewa ac kisakinyuk cow ku sheep, na in itukyang nu sin mwet tol finpisa, likintupa luo, ac fotowa.
4 the firstfruit of thy corn thy new wine and thine oil and the first of the fleece of thy flock, shalt thou give unto him.
Elos ac fah eis pac ip se emeet ke wheat, wain, oil in olive ac unen sheep.
5 For of him, hath Yahweh thy God made choice out of all thy tribes, —to stand to minister in the name of Yahweh of him and his sons all the days.
Inmasrlon sruf lowos nukewa, LEUM GOD El srela sruf lal Levi in kulansupwal in oru orekma lun mwet tol nwe tok.
6 And when the Levite shall come in out of any of thy gates out of any part of Israel, where he is sojourning, —yea shall come in with all the desire of his soul, into the place which Yahweh shall choose,
“Kutena mwet Levi su lungse in kulansap in mwet tol, el ku in tuku liki kutena siti el muta we in Israel, ac som nu ke acn se ma LEUM GOD El sulela mwet uh in alu nu sel we,
7 then may he minister in the name of Yahweh his God, —like any of his brethren the Levites who are standing there before Yahweh.
ac kulansap we fal nu ke sie mwet tol lun LEUM GOD lal, oana mwet Levi saya su wi orekma we.
8 Portion for portion, shall they eat, —apart from his possessions upon his patrimony.
El ac fah eis lupa se na ma mwet tol ngia eis ke mwe mongo, sayen ma sou lal uh supu nu sel.”
9 When thou art coming into the land which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee, thou shalt not learn to do according to the abominable doings of those nations.
“Pacl se kowos utyak nu in facl se ma LEUM GOD lowos El asot nu suwos uh, nimet etai ouiya na koluk lun mwet in mutunfacl we, su mwe srungayuk.
10 There shall not be found in thy midst—One who causeth his son or his daughter to pass through fire, —Or who useth divination, hidden arts or enchantments Or who muttereth incantations;
Nimet kisakin tulik nutuwos fin e ke loang lowos, ac nik kowos lela mwet lowos in orek susfa, ku orek fweni ke ma ac sikyak in pacl fahsru, ku inutnut,
11 Or who bindeth with spells, —Or who asketh of a familiar spirit or an oracle, Or who seeketh unto the dead.
ku lulalfongi ke inpucl, ac nimet lela elos in lolngok nu sin ngunin mwet misa.
12 For, an abomination unto Yahweh, is everyone who doeth these things, —and on account of these abominations, is Yahweh thy God dispossessing them from before thee.
LEUM GOD lowos El srunga mwet su oru lumah koluk inge, pa oru El lusak mutunfacl ingo ke kowos apkuran in utyak nu in facl selos.
13 Blameless, shalt thou be with, Yahweh thy God;
Kowos in arulana pwayena nu sin LEUM GOD.”
14 for, these nations whom thou art dispossessing, unto them who use hidden arts and unto diviners, do hearken, but as for thee, not so, doth Yahweh thy God suffer thee.
Na Moses el fahk, “In facl se su kowos apkuran in eis, mwet we lulalfongi kas lun mwet susfa ac fweni lalos, tusruktu LEUM GOD lowos El tia lela nu suwos in oru ma inge.
15 A prophet out of thy midst of thy brethren like unto me, will Yahweh thy God, raise up unto thee—unto him, shall ye hearken:
A El fah supwaot sie mwet palu liki inmasrlon mwet lowos, su oana nga, na kowos in aksol.
16 according to all which thou didst ask of Yahweh thy God, in Horeb, in the day of the convocation saying, —Let me no further hearken unto the voice of Yahweh my God, and this great fire, let me not see any more lest I die.
“Ke len se kowos tuh toeni pe Eol Sinai, kowos tuh kwafe kowos in tia sifil lohng pusren LEUM GOD, ku sifil liye e na lulap sac, mweyen kowos tuh nunku mu kowos ac misa.
17 And Yahweh said unto me: They have well said what they have spoken.
Ouinge LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ‘Elos orala sulela na lalmwetmet se.
18 A prophet, will I raise up unto them, out of the midst of their brethren, like unto thee, —and I will put my words in his mouth, so shall he speak unto them whatsoever I shall command him.
Nga ac supwala nu yorolos sie mwet palu oana kom liki inmasrlon mwet lalos. Nga fah fahkang nu sel ma elan fahk, ac el fah fahk nu sin mwet uh ma nukewa nga sapkin.
19 And it shall come to pass, that, the man who will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I, myself will require it of him.
El fah kaskas inek, ac nga fah kai kutena mwet su tia aksol.
20 Howbeit the prophet who shall presume to speak a word in my name which I have not commanded him to speak, or who shall speak in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.
Tusruktu fin oasr sie mwet palu su nunku in sulkakin sie kas inek ke nga tia sapkin elan fahk, el fah misa kac, na ac fah oapana nu sin mwet palu su fahkak ke inen god saya!
21 And, when thou shalt say in thy heart, —In what manner shall we know the word which Yahweh hath not spoken!?,
“Sahp kowos ac suk lah kowos ac etu fuka lah ma sie mwet palu el fahk tia ma tuku sin LEUM GOD.
22 When the prophet shall speak in the name of Yahweh and the word shall not come to pass, neither shall come in, that, is the word which Yahweh, hath not spoken, —presumptuously, hath the prophet spoken it, thou shall not be in dread of him.
Sie mwet palu fin kaskas ke Inen LEUM GOD ac ma el fahk uh tia sikyak oana, na kas lal tia ma sin LEUM GOD me. Mwet palu sac el kaskas ke ku na lal sifacna, na kowos fah tia sangeng sel.
