Deuteronomy 7
1 “Yahweh our God will bring you to the land that you will soon enter and occupy. As you advance, he will expel from that land seven people-groups that are more powerful and more numerous than you are. He will expel the Heth people-group, the Girgash people-group, the Amor people-group, the Canaan people-group, the Periz people-group, the Hiv people-group, and the Jebus people-group.
Pakai, na Pathen uvin gam sunga nahin puilut teng uleh, nam dang tampi umho khu asuhmang ding ahi: Hit mite, Girgash mite, Amor mite, Canaan mite, Periz mite, Hiv mite le Jebus mite ahi. Hiche nam sagi hohi nang ho sanga hatjo le pungjo ahiuve.
2 When Yahweh our God enables you to defeat [DOU] them, you must kill all of them. You must not make (an alliance/a peace treaty) with any of them. You must not act mercifully toward them.
Pakaiyin akhut akona nang ho nahin pehdoh tenguleh, nang hon abonchauva nasuh gamsoh keidiu ahi. Amaho toh ki chamna ima semlouva abonchauva natha gam diu ahi.
3 You must not marry any of them. You must not allow your daughters to marry any of their sons or allow your sons to marry any of their daughters.
Chule amaho toh chun na kichen thei lou diu ahi. Na chanuteu le nachapate hou chu amaho chanute le chapate toh nakichen sah louhel diu ahi.
4 Because, if you did that, those people would cause your children to stop worshiping Yahweh and to worship other gods. If that happens, Yahweh will be very angry with you and he will get rid of you immediately.
Ajeh chu ama hon na chateu apui mang diu, semthu pathen angsunga abohkhup sah diu ahi. Chuteng Pakai lunghanna nachung uva hung chu jeng ding, chomlou kah a na manthah lo diu ahi.
5 This is what you must do to those people: Tear down their (altars/places for sacrificing animals), break apart the stone pillars [that are dedicated to their male god Baal], cut down the [poles that they use when they worship the goddess] Asherah, and burn their [wooden] idols.
Hitia hi nabol teidiu ahi, amaicham phung hou le akhom ho aboncha naphuh lhuh peh diu ahi. Chule Asherah ho jong naphuh lhuh diu aboncha meiya nahal vam diu ahi.
6 You must do that because you are a group of people who belong to Yahweh our God. He has chosen you from among all the people-groups in the world to be his own special people.
Ajeh chu nangho Pakai, Pathen in vannoi mite lah atumbeh a na lhen’u ahin, chule nangho amagou nahi tauvin, Pakai dinga mithengte nahi tauve.
7 “It was not because you were more numerous than any other people-group that Yahweh preferred you; you are one of the smallest people-groups on the earth.
Pakaiyin namdang te banga thalhing le hatjo nahijeh uva nalhen tumu hilouvin, amavang nam neopen nahijeh uva nalhen joh’u ahi!
8 Instead, it is because Yahweh loved you and because he wanted to do what he vowed to your ancestors. That is the reason that he rescued you by his great power [MTY], and freed you from being slaves [MTY] of the king of Egypt.
Ajeh chu Pakaiyin akitepna ageldoh jing in, nachung uva ngailutna anei jing in ahi. Hijeh achu Pakaiyin athahat pana Egypt gam Pharaoh akon suhgimna nachan nauva kona nahuh doh’u ahi.
9 So do not forget that Yahweh our God is the only/true God. He will do what he agreed to do for you, and he will faithfully love (for 1,000 generations/forever) all those who love him and who obey his commandments.
Hijeh chun hethem un Pakai, Pathen hi nang ho Pathen dihtah mong ahi. Pakai ngailua athupeh nit jing mite chunga, akhang akhanga akitepna akoi jing in ngailutna jong anei jing in ahi.
10 But for those who hate him, he will (pay them back/do to them what they deserve); he will punish them and quickly get rid of them.
Hinlah Pakai nasah louva umho chunga gim genthei alhunsah in asumang jin ahi.
11 “So you must be sure to obey all the commandments and rules and regulations that I am giving to you today.
Hijeh chun tunia thupeh kapeh chengse hi aboncha najui kimsoh kei diu ahi.
12 If you heed these commands and obey them faithfully, Yahweh our God will do what he has agreed to do for you, and he will faithfully love you, which is what he vowed to your ancestors that he would do.
Dan le thupeh aboncha najui kimsoh keiyuva ahileh Pakai, Pathen in na chung uva alungsetna longlou chu akoi jing ding ahi. Ajeh chu napu napateu khanga pet akitepna ahi.
13 He will love you and bless you. He will enable you to have many children [DOU]. He will bless your fields, with the result that you will have plenty of grain and [grapes to make] wine and plenty of [olive] oil. You will have many cattle and sheep. He will do all these things for you in the land that he promised to your ancestors that he would give to you.
Pakaiyin phatthei naleh Ami ngailutna chun naumpi jing diu chule cha jong tampi nahin diu ahi. Pakaiyin gampha tah gaphaso nading leh naganchateu kivahna ding napeh diu, napu napateu khanga peh dinga akitepna gam nalhun tenguleh louga phatah nachom khom diu, lengpi thah leh Olive thao chule bonghon tampi leh kelngoi hon tampi jaona nanei diu ahi.
14 He will bless you more than he will bless any other people-group. All of you will be able to have/produce children [LIT]. All of your livestock will be able to produce offspring.
Chutengleh Vannoiya nam dangte jouse sanga phatthei nachan diu ahi. Numei, pasal hihen nagancha teu hijongleh cha nei louva khatcha naum lou diu ahi.
15 And Yahweh will protect you from all illnesses. You will not be afflicted with any of the dreadful diseases that [our ancestors knew about] in Egypt, but all your enemies will be inflicted with those diseases.
Chule dammo veisetna akona Pakaiyin navenbit jing diu ahi. Egypt gam'a gim genthei nathoh bang uva nathoh sah lou diu, na doumah jouseu aboncha asuh mang ding ahi.
16 You must get rid of all the people-groups that Yahweh our God will enable you to conquer. Do not [SYN] act mercifully toward any of them. And do not worship their gods, because if you do that, it would be like falling into a trap [from which you will never be able to escape].
Pakai, Pathen in nam dangte nakhut a apehdoh chengse aboncha nasuh gam diu ahi. Ngailutna beiya nabol diu chule amaho pathen angsunga nabohkhup lou heldiu ahi.
17 “Do not think to yourselves, ‘These people-groups are more numerous/powerful than we are, so we certainly cannot [RHQ] expel them.’
Amavang nanghon hitia hi nasei diu, hiche nam mite hi eiho sang in ahat jouvin, iti iki doupi thei diu ham?
18 Do not be afraid of them. Instead, think about what Yahweh our God did to the king of Egypt and to all the people whom he [ruled].
Hinlah nakichat thei lou diu ahi! Ajeh chu Pakai, na Pathen uvin Egypt gam Pharaoh henga ichan geiya na atoh ham ti nageldoh diu ahi.
19 Do not forget the terrible plagues that your ancestors saw [Yahweh inflict on the people of Egypt], and the many [DOU] miracles [that he performed], and the very powerful [DOU, MTY] way by which he brought your ancestors out [of Egypt]. Yahweh our God will do the same kind of things to the people-groups that you are afraid of now.
Pakai, na Pathen uvin amaho chunga tijat umtah’a na atoh geldoh jing un, hichu nangho mitmu tah a thilsoh ahi! Chule thil ki dang ijakai akilahsah ho geldoh jing uvin, abanthahat pana anatoh thil kidang hoa kona Egypt gam'a pet nahin puiyu chu na suhmil lou diu ahi. Hiche banga chu Pakai, Pathen in tua nagal miteu chunga na atoh ding ahi.
20 Furthermore, he will cause them to become terrified, and he will destroy those who remain alive and run away to hide from you.
Pakai, na Pathen uvin tijatna phabep namasang lam uva ahin koi ding, chuteng ijakai atol mang soh ding ahi.
21 Do not be afraid of those people, because Yahweh our God will be with/among you. He is a great God; he is the one you should be afraid of.
Hiche nam mite chunga chu kichatna nanei louhel diu ahi, ajeh chu Pakai, na Pathen uvin na umpi jing uve, Pathen thilbol thei kidang ahi.
22 He will expel those people-groups gradually. You should not [try to] expel all of them at one time, because if you did that, the number of wild animals would quickly increase, [and you would not be able to get rid of them].
Pakai, na Pathen uvin hiche nam mite hohi aloi loiya asuh mang ding ahi. Khatvei pansa nasuhmang jeng thei lou diu ahi. Achuti louva ahile gamsate hung dimlha jeng ding ahi.
23 Instead, Yahweh will enable you to defeat your enemies [one people-group at a time]. He will cause them to panic until they are destroyed.
Hinlah Pakai, na Pathen uvin abonchauva nangho khut a apeh doh ding ahi. Amaho abei kahseuva Pakaiyin asuhnoh phah diu ahi.
24 He will enable you to defeat [IDM] their kings. After you kill them, their names will be forgotten {people will forget about them}. No people-group will be able to stop you; you will destroy all of them.
Pakaiyin alengte hou nangho khut a apehdoh ding, chuteng nanghon leiset a amin hou nasuh mang diu ahi.
25 You must burn the wooden idols [that represent] their gods. Do not desire to take the silver or gold [decorations] that are on those idols, because if you take them for yourselves, they will be like a trap [to cause you to want to worship those idols]. Yahweh hates [the worship of those idols].
Chule amilim doi semthu hou aboncha nahalvam peh diu, milim doi tomna ki mang sum-eng hijongleh khat jeng cha na kilah thei lou diu ahi.
26 You must not bring any of those disgusting idols into your houses, because if you do that, God will curse you like he curses them. You must hate and despise [DOU] those idols, because they are things that [Yahweh] has cursed.”
Na insung'u suboh thei ima nanei thei lou diu ahi, ajeh chu amaho kibolna banga nangho jong thina nachan diu ahi. Hitobang thil hoa kona gamna kipan ding chule na kidalse jing diu ahi.
