Deuteronomy 26
1 “After you occupy the land that Yahweh our God is giving to you, and you (have settled/are living) there,
Nangho Pakai, Pathen in napehnau gamsunga nachenlut tenguleh,
2 [each of] you must take some of the first crops that you harvest, put them in a basket, and take them to the place that Yahweh will have chosen for you to worship [MTY] there.
Pakai, Pathen in napeh'u, nalou lhosoh-gau masa akona phabep khat nakoidoh diu, hichengse chu pucha sunga nakoi khom diu, chuteng Pakai, Pathen in adeilhenna mun achu nachea'uva naga lhut diu ahi.
3 Go to the Supreme Priest who is serving at that time and say to him, ‘[By giving you this first part of my harvest] today, I am declaring to Yahweh our God that I have [picked it in] the land that he vowed to our ancestors to give to us.’
Hiche laimuna thempu natongpa koma chu nache uva, hitia hi ahenga nagasei diu ahi. Tunin keiman Pakai, Pathen henga ka phondoh ahitai, ajeh chu Pakai, Pathen in ipului khang uva pat aki tepna gamsunga keima ka hung lhung tai, tia nasei diu ahi.
4 Then the priest must take the basket of food from your hand and put it on the altar where sacrifices are offered to Yahweh our God.
Hiteng chule, Thempu pan jong na pocha uchu na doplhah peh diu, hichu Pakai, Pathen maicham maiya nagakoi peh diu ahi.
5 Then in Yahweh’s presence you must say this: ‘My ancestor [Jacob] was a man from Aram/Syria who was continually wandering [from one place to another]. He took his family to Egypt. They were a small group [when they went there], but they lived there and their descendants became a very large/populous [DOU] and powerful nation.
Nanghon Pakai, Pathen henga hitia hi nasei diu, keima pupa chu Ram mi anahin, hiche muna chu khopem ahin, ami jeng jong lhomcha bou ahi. Chomlou kah in Egypt gamsunga nam lentah ahung hidoh tan, ahung hatdoh jeng tan ahileh mihem jeng jong tampi ahung hidoh tan ahi.
6 Then the people of Egypt treated them very harshly [DOU], and they forced them to become their slaves and to work very hard.
Chujouvin Egypt miten ei sugim lheh jeng tauvin, gentheina tin chang eithoh sah uvin, soh le kol in hinkho iman sah uvin ahi.
7 Then our ancestors cried out to you, Yahweh our God, and you heard them. You saw that they were suffering, and that they were forced to work very hard, and were being oppressed.
Chuin kapu, kapa luiteu khanga pat, Pathen henga chun ka tao un, Pakaiyin ka taonau awgin ajatan ahileh, ka thoh gimna jouseu le gim hesoh a ka umna jouseu amusoh kei tan ahi.
8 Then by your great power [MTY] and by performing many kinds of miracles [DOU], and other terrifying things, you brought them out of Egypt.
Chutah chun Pakaiyin athahat apan in, abanjang thahat apantan, kichat umtah leh melchihna kidang tamtah tothon Egypt gamsunga kon chun Pathen in eihin puidoh tauvin ahi.
9 You brought us to this land and gave it to us, a land that is very fertile [IDM].
Hichea kon chun eihin pui galkai uvin ahileh, khoiju le bongnoi lonna gamsunga chun ka hung galkai lhung tauvin ahi.
10 So now, Yahweh, I have brought to you the first part of the harvest from the land that I received.’ Then you must set the basket down in Yahweh’s presence and worship him there.
Tun Pakai vetan, nagman nei peh'u leiset gamasa chengse kahin lhut tai. Chuteng leh Pakai, Pathen angsunga hi natun doh diu, Pakai, Pathen chu chibai naboh diu ahi.
11 And you must celebrate [by eating a meal together to thank] Yahweh our God for all the good things that he has given to you and to your family. And you must invite the descendants of Levi and the foreigners who are living among you to also rejoice [and eat] with you.
Pakai, Pathen akona thilpeh jouse hin kipana nachan sah diu, nangho nahiu vin, Levi mite ahin chule nalah uva hung kholjin miho jouse jaona na kipa soh kei diu ahi.
12 Every third year, you must bring to the descendants of Levi and to the foreigners [who are living among you] and the orphans and the widows (a tithe/10 percent) of your crops, in order that in every town they will have plenty to eat.
Chule hopsom pehna dinga, kum thum sunga peh ding dol chengse nasim toh soh kei diu, hichengse chu Levi mite ahin, nulou palou, meithai ho dinga na khindoh ding, na khopi sung'uva cheng jousen aneh uva va sohkei diu ahi.
13 Then you must say to Yahweh, ‘I have brought to you, from my house, all of the sacred tithe [from my harvest this year]. I am giving it to the descendants of Levi, to the foreigners, the orphans, and the widows, as you commanded us to do. I have not disobeyed any of your commands [about the tithes], and I have not forgotten any of your commands [about tithes].
Chule Pakai, Pathen angsunga nasei diu, ka insunga kon in ijakai atheng jouse chu ka koidoh soh kei tan ahi. Hiti chun, athil theng jouse akon chun Levi mite, kholjin mi, nulou, palou chule chaga hole meithai ho kape tan ahi. Na thupeh abonchan ka subukim soh keiyun ahi.
14 [I declare that] I have not eaten any food from the tithe while I was mourning [for someone who died]. And I have not touched any of it while I was unacceptable to you; I have not offered any of it to [spirits of] dead people. Yahweh, I have obeyed you and done everything that you have commanded us [concerning the tithe].
Kaboi pet tah jeng in jong hopsom ka mangcha hih nai, atheng lou dinmuna kaum laiyin jong hopsom neocha jong ka kilah hih uve, hopsom kiti hi mithi opnan jong thilpeh a kamang khapouvin, keiho hin Pakai thupeh abonchan kajui jing un, nangma thupeh bang bang in ijakai ka bol kimsoh keiyun ahi.
15 So [please] look down from your holy place in heaven, and bless us, your Israeli people. Also bless this very fertile [IDM] land which you have given to us, which is what you promised our ancestors that you would do.’
Na umna muntheng laiya kon chun neihin vetan, chule nami Israelte napehna gamsunga hin phatthei lhingset hin boh tauvin, ajeh chu hiche gamsung hi khoiju leh bongnoi lonna gam ahin, kapu kappa teu khang apat eipeh sau ana hitai, tia nasei ding ahi.
16 Today Yahweh our God is commanding you to obey all these rules and regulations. So obey them faithfully, with your entire inner being [DOU].
Hijeh chun Pakai, Pathen in tuni hin nanghon hiche chondan josue hi na jui diuvin nape tauve. Hicheng ho jouse hi nahinkho lhum keiyuva natoh doh nadiuva limgeh chaa naum diu ahi.
17 Today you have declared that Yahweh is your God, and that you will conduct your lives as he wants you to do, and that you will obey all his commands and rules and regulations, and that you will do all that he tells you to do.
Ajeh chu nanghon hiche hi tunia, Pakai thudola naphon doh'u ahitan, nangho dia tonsot Pathen ahijing in, ama lampi jinga na lamlhah diu chule achonna dan jouse le athupeh aboncha najui kimsoh kei diu ahi.
18 And today Yahweh has declared that you are his people, which is what he promised that you would be, and he commands you to obey all his commands.
Pakaiyin hiti hin aseiyin, na chung chang thua aphongdoh in, nang hohi aman aphondoh banga amite mong mong ama dia lhentum chu nahi diu, athupeh jouse hi nanit bukim soh kei diu ahi.
19 If you do that, he will cause you to become greater than any other nation that he has established, and he will enable you to praise him and honor him [DOU]. You will truly belong to Yahweh our God, which is what he has promised.”
Chuteng Pakaiyin, asemsa vannoi leiset mite lah a choi-atna dim, jabolna dimset a natun doh diu ahitai. Pakaiyin aseidohsa bang banga nang hohi nam thengte nahi jing diu ahi.
