Deuteronomy 9
1 Hear O Israel! thou art passing, to-day, over the Jordan, to go in to dispossess nations, greater and stronger than thou, —cities great and fortified into the heavens;
Oe Isarelnaw thai awh haw. Nangmouh hlak a thakasai e miphun hai thoseh, kalvan kadeng e rapan hoi ka kawi e khopuinaw hai thoseh,
2 a people great and tall, the sons of Anakim, —whom, thou, knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand before the sons of Anak?
Anakim miphun hmalah bangtelah vai kangdue thai tie lawk na thai teh, na panue e Anakim miphun tie kalenpounge miphun hai thoseh, tuk nateh lawp hanelah atu Jordan tui raka tawmlei toe.
3 So then, thou must consider to-day, that Yahweh thy God, he it is that is passing over before thee as a consuming fire, he, will destroy them, and, he, will cause them to bow down before thee, —so shalt thou dispossess them, and destroy them speedily, as Yahweh hath spoken unto thee.
Hatdawkvah, na BAWIPA Cathut ni na hmalah a cei teh, ka kang e hmai patetlah ao teh, ahnimouh a raphoe vaiteh, na hmaitung vah, a tabo han tie hah na lungkuep awh. Cathut ni a dei e patetlah nang ni ahnimouh na pâlei awh vaiteh karang poung lah na raphoe awh han.
4 Do not speak in thy heart, when Yahweh thy God casteth them out from before thee saying, For mine own righteousness, hath Yahweh brought me in, to possess this land, —whereas it is for the lawlessness of these nations, that, Yahweh, is dispossessing them from before thee.
BAWIPA na Cathut ni ahnimouh nang koehoi a pâlei hnukkhu, nang ni kaie lannae dawk doeh BAWIPA ni hete ram ka kut dawk na poe telah na pouk payon vaih. Hote miphunnaw hawihoeh e dawk BAWIPA ni ka hmaitung hoi a pâlei telah pouk awh.
5 Not for thine own righteousness, nor for the uprightness of thine own heart, art thou going in to possess their land, —but for the lawlessness of these nations, is, Yahweh thy God driving them out from before thee, and that he may establish the word which Yahweh sware unto thy fathers, unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob.
Na sak awh e hnokahawi dawk hai thoseh, lannae dawk hoi hai thoseh, hote ram a coe awh hane nahoeh. Hete miphunnaw hawihoeh dawk hoi thoseh, BAWIPA ni na pa Abraham, Isak, Jakop koe lawkkam e lawk hah, a caksak nahan na Cathut ni ahnimouh na hmalah hoi a pâlei e doeh.
6 So then, thou must consider that, not for thine own righteousness, is Yahweh thy God giving unto thee this good land to possess it, —for a stiff-necked people, thou art.
Hatdawkvah, na BAWIPA ni nama e na hawinae dawk hoi, kahawipoung e ram na poe e nahoeh, nang teh na lahuen ka cak e miphun doeh.
7 Remember—do not forget, how thou didst provoke Yahweh thy God, in the desert, —yea from the day when thou camest forth out of the and of Egypt until ye entered as far as this place, have ye been quarrelling, with Yahweh.
Nang ni kahrawngum vah BAWIPA lung na khuek sak e hah, pahnim hanh. Izip ram hoi na tâco pasuek nah, hete hmuen koe na pha a totouh, BAWIPA koe taran lah na thaw awh.
8 Even in Horeb, ye provoked Yahweh to wrath, —so that Yahweh showed himself angry with you to destroy you.
Horeb vah BAWIPA a lung na khuek sak awh teh, nangmouh raphoe hane totouh, BAWIPA hah a lungkhuek.
9 When I went up into the mountain to receive the tables of stone—the tables of the covenant, which Yahweh had solemnised with you, then abode I in the mountain forty days and forty nights, food, did I not, eat, and water, did I not drink.
BAWIPA hoi lawkkamnae thutnae talung, lungphen la hanelah, mon lah ka luen navah, hnin 40 touh thung vaiyei hoi tui ka catnet laipalah, mon vah ka o.
10 Then did Yahweh deliver unto me the two tables of stone, written with the finger of God, —and [there was] upon them, according to all the words which Yahweh had spoken with you in the mountain out of the midst of the fire in the day of the convocation.
BAWIPA Cathut ni lungphen kahni touh Cathut e kut hoi thut e na poe. Na kamkhueng hnin vah, mon som hmai dawk hoi a dei e lawknaw ao.
11 So then it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that Yahweh gave unto me the two tables of stone the tables of the covenant.
Ahnin 40 arum 40 akuep navah hote lawkkam lungphen kahni touh e teh, BAWIPA Cathut ni kai koe na poe.
12 Then said Yahweh unto me—Up! get down quickly out of this mountain, for thy people whom thou hast brought forth out of Egypt, have broken faith, —they have turned aside quickly, out of the way which I commanded them, —they have made them a molten image.
Hahoi BAWIPA ni Thaw nateh karang cathuk leih. Izip ram hoi na tâcokhai e taminaw a rawk awh toe, tarawi hane ka poe e lamthung a phen awh toe. Kutsak meikapawk doeh a bawk awh toe.
13 And Yahweh spake unto me saying, —I have looked on this people, and lo! a stiff-necked people, it is.
BAWIPA ni, hete miphunnaw ka khet nah, a lahuen mangkhak e miphunnaw doeh.
14 Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and wipe out their name from under the heavens, —and make thee into a nation stronger and more in number than they.
Ka madueng na awm sak awh. Ahnimouh kai ni ka raphoe han. A min hai kalvan rahim vah ka raphoe han. Nang teh ahnimouh hlak tha na sai sak vaiteh, miphun ka pungdaw sak han telah a ti.
15 So I turned, and came down out of the mountain, now the mountain was burning with fire, —and the two tables of the covenant were upon my two hands.
Hatnavah lawkkam talung kahni touh ka sin teh, ka kamlang teh hmai ka kang e mon dawk hoi ka kum.
16 Then looked I, and lo! ye had sinned against Yahweh your God, ye had made you a molten calf, —ye had turned aside quickly, out of the way which Yahweh had commanded you.
Nangmouh ni, BAWIPA Cathut koe na yon awh teh, maito meikaphawk hlun awh teh, Cathut ni lawk na poe e lamthung karang poung lah, na phen awh toe tie ka hmu navah,
17 So I seized the two tables, and cast them from off my two hands, —and brake them in pieces before your eyes.
Kut roi hoi ka patuep e lungphen, kahni touh e hah nangmae hmaitung vah ka raphei.
18 Then lay I prostrate before Yahweh as at the first, forty days and forty nights, food, did I not eat, and water, did I not drink, —because of all your sin which ye had sinned, in doing the thing that was wicked, in the eyes of Yahweh. to provoke him to anger.
Nangmouh ni, BAWIPA lung na khuek sak nahanelah, a hmalah yonnae na sak awh e yon pueng dawkvah, yampa e patetlah BAWIPA hmalah ka tabo teh, hnin 40 rum 40 touh vaiyei hoi tui catnet laipalah ka o.
19 For I shrank with fear from the face of the anger and the hot displeasure, wherewith Yahweh was provoked against you to destroy you, —but Yahweh hearkened unto me, even at that time.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni nangmouh na raphoe hanlah, puenghoi lungkhueknae a tâco sak e kai ni ka taki. Hatnavah BAWIPA ni kaie ka lawk bout na thai pouh.
20 And with Aaron, did Yahweh show himself exceedingly angry, to destroy him, —so I prostrated myself, even in behalf of Aaron at that time.
BAWIPA ni Aron raphoe hanelah a lung puenghoi a khuek dawkvah, Aron hane lahai ka ratoum.
21 And your sin which ye had made even the calf, took I and burned it up with fire, and pounded it very small, until it was fine as dust, —then cast I the dust thereof into the torrent that descended out of the mountain.
Yonnae tie na sak awh e maitoca hah ka la teh, a tui lah kalawng sak. A kanuikapin lah rekrek ka kanawi teh, mon dawk hoi ka lawng e palang dawk ka tâkhawng.
22 Also, at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth-hataavah, a cause of provocation, became ye unto Yahweh.
Taberah, Messah hmuen, Kiborthhattaavah hmuen koe hai, nangmouh ni BAWIPA hah a lungkhuek nahanlah na sak awh.
23 Also when Yahweh sent you out of Kadesh-barnea saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given unto you then quarreled ye with the bidding of Yahweh your God, and trusted him not, neither hearkened unto his voice.
Kadeshbarnea hoi BAWIPA ni cet awh nateh, kai ni na poe e ram hah lat awh. Nangmouh na patoun awh navah, nangmouh ni nangmae BAWIPA e kâ poe e na kangek awh. BAWIPA na yuem awh hoeh, lawk hai ngâi laipalah na o awh.
24 Ye have been quarrelling, with Yahweh, —from the day that I first knew you.
Ka panue hnin hoi nangmouh teh BAWIPA hah na taran awh toe.
25 Thus, then lay I prostrate before Yahweh, the forty days and the forty nights that I did lie prostrate, —because Yahweh spake of destroying you.
BAWIPA ni nangmouh na raphoe han telah a dei dawkvah, kai teh yampa e patetlah hnin 40 rum 40 touh ka tabo.
26 Therefore I prostrated myself unto Yahweh and said, My Lord Yahweh! Do not destroy thy people even thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed in thy greatness, —which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a firm hand.
BAWIPA koe, Oe Bawipa Jehovah, lentoenae hoi na ratang teh, thaonae kut hoi Izip hoi na tâcokhai e, nange râw lah kaawm e hete taminaw hah raphoe hanh loe.
27 Have remembrance of thy servants, of Abraham, of Isaac and of Jacob, —do not regard the obduracy of this people, or their lawlessness or their sin:
Nange san Abraham, Isak, Jakop hah pahnim hanh. Hete miphunnaw teh a lungpatanae, a yonnae hoi a hawihoehnae pâkuem pouh hanh.
28 lest the land out of which thou hast brought us forth say, Because Yahweh was not able to bring them into the land of which he had spoken to them, —and because he hated them, took he them forth to put them to death in the desert.
Hottelah hoeh pawiteh, tâconae ram dawk e taminaw ni, Cathut ni a kam pouh e ram dawk, a thokhai thai hoeh dawkvah, a hmu ngaihoeh dawk na ou, kahrawngum thei hanelah a ngai dawk na ou ati han nahoehmaw.
29 Yet, they, are thy people and thine inheritance, —whom thou hast brought forth with thy great strength, and with thy stretched-out arm.
Hetnaw teh lentoenae hoi, na kut na dâw teh, na tâcokhai e nange râwnaw doeh telah kai ni ka ratoum.
