Leviticus 11
1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying unto them:
BAWIPA ni Mosi hoi Aron bout a kaw teh,
2 Speak ye unto the sons of Israel saying, —These are the living things which ye may eat, of all the beasts which are upon the earth:
Nangmouh roi ni Isarelnaw koe patuen bout na dei pouh hane teh, talai van kaawm e moithang pueng dawk,
3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof and is cloven-footed, and cheweth the cud among beasts, that, may ye eat.
A khoksamen samka ni teh a thepkaai e moithangnaw teh ca thainae kâ ao.
4 Nevertheless, these, shall ye not eat, of them that chew the cud, and of them that part the hoof, —the camel, because though he, cheweth the cud, yet, the hoof, he parteth not, unclean, he is to you;
Hatei, thepkaai ni teh khoksamen samka hoeh e moithang thung dawk, ca hoeh hane moithangnaw teh Kalauk teh athepai hoeh eiteh khoksamen samka hoeh dawkvah nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
5 And, the coney, because, though he cheweth the cud, yet, the hoof, he parteth not, —unclean, he is to you;
Kovei teh thepkaai eiteh a khoksamen samka hoeh dawkvah nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
6 And the hare, because though she cheweth the cud, yet the hoof, she parteth not, —unclean, she is to you;
Saveh teh thepkaai eiteh a khoksamen samka hoeh dawkvah nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
7 And, the swine, because though he parteth the hoof, and is cloven-footed, yet, the cud, he cheweth not, —unclean, he is to you;
Vok teh a khoksamen samka eiteh thepkaai hoeh dawkvah nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
8 Of their flesh, shall ye not eat, and, their carcase, shall ye not touch, —unclean, they are to you.
Hot patet e moithangnaw e a moi na cat awh mahoeh. Ro haiyah na tek awh mahoeh. Kathounghoehe lah na pouk awh han.
9 these, may ye eat, of all that are in the waters, —all that have fins and scales in the waters, in the seas and in the rivers, them, may ye eat.

10 But, all that have not fins and scales, in the seas and in the rivers, of all that swarm in the waters, and of all the living souls that are in the waters, an abomination, they are unto you;
A rathei hoi a lakep kaawm hoeh e tuipui hoi sawkca dawk kaawm e moithang pueng teh nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
11 and an abomination, shall they remain to you, —of their flesh, ye shall not eat, and their carcases, shall ye abhor.
A rathei hoi a lakep kaawm hoeh e tui dawk e moithang na cat awh mahoeh.
12 Whatsoever hath not fins and scales in the waters, an abomination, it is unto you.
A ronaw hai panuettho e lah na pouk awh han.
13 And, these, shall ye abhor of birds, they shall not be eaten, an abomination, they are, —the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the osprey;
Nangmouh ni panuettho e lah na pouk awh vaiteh na ca awh hoeh hane tavanaw teh: Mataw, Langta, Tawbu,
14 and the vulture, and the falcon, after its kind;

19 and the stork, and the parrot, after its kind, —and the mountain-cock and the bat.
Butakok phun kuep, Bongpi, Bongcakhat phun kuep,
20 Every creeping thing that flieth, that goeth on all-fours, an abomination, it is unto you.
A rathei ka tawn ni teh a khok pali touh hoi kacetnaw pueng teh nangmouh hanlah kathounghoehe lah ao.
21 Nevertheless, these, may ye eat, of all creeping things that fly, that go on all-fours, —such as have legs above their feet, to leap therewith, upon the earth—
Hateiteh, a rathei a tawn teh a khok pali touh hoi ka cet e phun dawk dawkcawk nahanlah a khok kasaw poung naw teh:
22 these of them, may ye eat: the swarming-locust after its kind, and the devouring locust after its kind, —and the chargol-locust after its kind, and the chagab-locust after its kind.
Samtong, pâluen, tawktaboe, Tawngkaruetnaw teh na ca awh han.
23 But every [other] creeping thing that flieth, which hath four feet, an abomination, it is unto you;
A rathei ka tawn ni teh a khok pali touh hoi ka cet e alouke moithang pueng teh nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
24 and, for these, shall ye count yourselves unclean—whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the evening;

25 and whosoever beareth away aught of the carcase of them, shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening.

26 As for every kind of beast which, though it parteth the hoof, yet is not cloven-footed nor cheweth the cud, unclean, they are unto you, —every one who toucheth them shall be unclean.

27 And, all that go upon their paws, among all the living things that go on all-fours, unclean, they are unto you, —whoso toucheth the carcase of them, shall be unclean until the evening.

29 And, these, unto you, shall be unclean, among the creeping things that creep upon the earth, —the weasel and the mouse, and the lizard after its kind;
Talai dawk a vonpui hoi kâva e saring thung dawk thangbui, moihnam, Insi phun,
30 and the ferret and the chameleon and the wall-lizard, —and the winding lizard, and the mole.
Tawkkei, Tawngkang, Cingkadawt, Dekko hoi Khaipadounnaw teh nangmouh hanlah thoung hoeh.
31 These, are they which are unclean to you among all that creep, —whosoever toucheth them when they are dead shall be unclean until the evening;
Hotnaw e ro katek e tami teh tangmin totouh thoung hoeh.
32 and, everything whereon any of them shall fall when they are dead shall be unclean—of any articles of wood, or cloth, or skin, or sackcloth, any article wherewith any work is done, —shall be put in water and shall be unclean until the evening, and then be clean,
Hote kadout e a ro hah thingkawlung, khohna, a pho, cawngko patetlah e im dawk e hno e buet touh van bawt pawiteh thoung hoeh. Tui dawk ranup han. Tangmin totouh thoung hoeh. Hathnukkhu a thoung han.
33 And, as for any earthen vessel whereinto any of them may fall, everything therein shall be unclean, and, the vessel itself, shall ye break in pieces.
Talai hlaam buetbuet touh van ro hah bawt pawiteh, Hote talai hlaam teh a thounghoeh dawkvah rek hem han.
34 Of all the food that may be eaten, that whereon shall come water, shall be unclean, —and, all drink which might be drunk in any [such] vessel, shall be unclean.

35 And, everything whereon shall fall any part of the carcase of them shall be unclean, oven or fire-range, it shall be destroyed, unclean, they are, —and, unclean, Shall they remain to you.
Takhuen dawk thoseh, lunghmu dawk thoseh, hote hno buetbuet touh bawt pawiteh nangmouh hanelah a thounghoeh dawkvah, peng raphoe han.
36 Notwithstanding, a fountain or cistern wherein is a gathering of waters shall be clean, —but, he that toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean.
Hatei, sambuem, tai e tui im teh kathounghoehe lah awm hoeh. Ro ni a bosin e dueng doeh kathounghoehe lah ao.
37 And when any part of the carcase of them shall fall upon seed for sowing, which is to be sown, the same is, clean.

38 But, when water shall be put upon seed, and there shall fall thereon any part of the carcase of them, unclean, it is to you.

39 And, when any of the beasts which are yours for food shall die, he that toucheth the carcase of it shall be unclean until the evening.

40 And, he that eateth of the carcase of it, shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening, —he also that carrieth away the carcase thereof shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
Hote ro ka cat e tami teh a khohna a pâsu han. Tangmin totouh thoung hoeh. Hote ro ka phawt e tami hai amae a khohna a pâsu han. Tangmin totouh thoung hoeh.
41 And, any creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, an abomination, it is—it shall not be eaten.
Talai dawk kâva e saringnaw pueng teh panuettho e lah ao dawkvah na cat awh mahoeh.
42 Everything that goeth upon the belly, and everything that goeth upon all-fours, even to everything having many feet, as regardeth any creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, ye shall not eat them for, an abomination, they are.
A khok tawn hoeh, a von hoi ka cet e thoseh, khok pali touh hoi ka cet e thoseh, khok pali hlak kapap e khok hoi ka cet e thoseh, talai dawk kâva e saring buet touh boehai na cat awh mahoeh. Panuetkatho e lah ao.
43 Do not make your persons abominable, with any creeping thing that creepeth, —neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should become unclean thereby.
Kâva e saring buetbuet touh kecu namahoima kâkhinsak awh hanh. Hotnaw hoi nama kâkhinsak awh hanh.
44 For, I—Yahweh, am your God, therefore shall ye hallow yourselves and remain holy; for, holy, am, I,—therefore shall ye not make your persons unclean, with any creeping thing that crawleth upon the earth;
Kai teh nangmae BAWIPA Cathut lah ka o. Kai teh kathoung dawkvah nangmouh haiyah namahoima kâthoung sak awh nateh thoungnae tawn awh. Talai dawk kâva e saring buet touh boe hoi hai kâkhinsak awh hanh.
45 for, I—Yahweh, am he that brought you up out of the land of Egypt, that I might become your God, —therefore shall ye be holy, for, holy, am, I.
Kai teh nangmae Cathut lah ka o nahanlah nangmouh teh Izip ram hoi na ka rasat e BAWIPA lah ka o. Kai teh kathoung dawkvah nangmouh hai thoungnae tawn awh.
46 This, is the law of beast and of bird, and of every living soul that moveth in the waters, —and as to every soul that creepeth upon the earth:
Hetnaw teh, kathoung, kathoung hoeh, cakawi hoi cakawi hoeh e saringnaw kapek thai nahanelah,
47 That ye may make a difference—between the unclean and the clean, —and between the living thing that may be eaten, and the living thing which may not be eaten.
Moi, tava, tui dawk kaawm e moithang, talai dawk kâva e moithangnaw puenghoi ka kâkuen e phunglawk doeh ati.
