< Leviticus 23 >

1 Yahweh said to Moses/me,
BAWIPA ni Mosi koe, nang ni Isarelnaw koe bout na dei pouh hane teh,
2 “Tell the Israeli people about the festivals that I have chosen, the days when you all must gather together [to worship me].”
Nangmouh ni na sak e kathounge kamkhuengnae, Kai BAWIPA e pawinaw teh; Hnin taruk touh thung thaw na tawk awh han. Hnin sari hnin teh kâhatnae sabbath hnin, kathoung kamkhuengnae lah ao.
3 “You may work for six days [each week], but on the seventh day you must not do any work. You must rest. It is a sacred/holy day when you must gather together [to worship me]. Wherever you live, you must rest on that day.”
Hnin taruk touh thung thaw na tawk awh han. Hateiteh, hnin sari hnin teh kâhatnae, kamkhuengnae hnin kathoung lah ao dawkvah bang thaw haiyah na tawk awh mahoeh, na onae pueng koevah BAWIPA hanlah sabbath hnin lah ao.
4 “There are festivals that I have established for you. Those will also be sacred/holy days when you must gather together [to worship me].
Ama tueng nah nangmouh ni na pathang awh hane kathounge kamkhuengnae lah kaawm e Cathut pawinaw teh;
5 [The first festival is] (the Passover/when you remember that I spared your ancestors when I killed all the firstborn Egyptian sons). That festival will begin at twilight/dusk/sunset on the chosen day (each spring/in March or April each year), [and end on the following day].
Apasueke thapa, hnin hlaipali, tangmin nateh BAWIPA e ceitakhai pawi doeh.
6 The next day, the Festival of Eating Bread That Has No Yeast will begin. That festival will continue for seven days. During that time, the bread that you eat must be made without yeast.
Hote thapa, hnin hlaipanga hnin teh BAWIPA hanlah tonphuenhoehe pawi lah ao. Hnin sari touh thung tonphuenhoehe na ca awh han.
7 On the first day of that festival, you all must stop your regular work and you must gather together [to worship me].
Apasuek hnin vah kathoung kamkhuengnae na sak awh han. Bang thaw hai na tawk awh mahoeh.
8 On each of the seven days, you must present to me [several animals to be] an offering/sacrifice to be completely burned [on the altar]. On the seventh day, you all must again stop your regular work and gather to worship me.”
Hateiteh, hnin sari touh thung BAWIPA koe rawca thuengnae na sak awh han. Asari hnin nah kathoung kamkhuengnae na sak han. Hat hnin nah, bang thaw hai na tawk mahoeh telah a ti.
9 Yahweh also told Moses/me
Cathut ni Mosi koe bout a dei pouh e teh, nang ni Isarel miphunnaw koe patuen na dei pouh hane teh;
10 to tell the Israeli people [about other festivals]. He said, “When you arrive in the land which I am giving to you, and you harvest your crops [for the first time] there, bring to the priest some of the first grain that you harvest.
Kai ni na poe e ram dawk na pha awh toteh, cang na a awh toteh, apasuek na a e cabong buet touh vaihma koe na thokhai awh han.
11 On the day after the [next] Sabbath/rest day, the priest will lift it up [high to dedicate it] to me, in order that I will accept it as your [gift].
Nangmouh ni a lungyouk awh nahanlah vaihma ni sabbath hnin atangtho vah hote cabong hah Cathut hmalah a kahek han.
12 That same day, you must sacrifice to me a one-year-old male lamb that has no defects. You must burn it [on the altar].
Cabong a kaheknae hnin dawkvah âvâ ka cawt hoeh rae tutanca hah BAWIPA hanlah hmaisawi thuengnae a sak han.
13 You must also burn an offering of grain. That offering must consist of (three quarts/3.5 liters) of good flour mixed with [olive] oil. The smell [of those things burning] will be very pleasing to me. Along with that, you must also offer one quart/liter of wine, which will be a liquid offering.
Hote thuengnae hoi ka kâkuen e tavai thuengnae teh Cathut koe hmuitui hanlah hmaisawi thuengnae lah kaawm e satui hoi kalawt e tavai ephah pung hra pung touh kalawt e lah ao han. Awi thuengnae teh misurtui buet touh han.
14 Do not eat any bread or any roasted grain or unroasted grain on that day until after you have brought those offerings to me, your God. You must always obey [LIT] those commands, wherever you live.”
Na Cathut koe thuengnae hnin a pha hoehnahlan vah, vaiyei, vaicakuem karê e, anhla kahring a pawhik na cat awh mahoeh. Hetteh, na onae hmuen pueng koe na catoun ditouh na tarawi hane phunglam lah ao.
15 “Seven weeks after the priest offers that grain to me,
Kahek thuengnae cabong na thokhainae hnin, sabbath hnin atangtho hoi sabbath avai sari totouh na touk awh han.
16 on the next/50th day after he offers it, [each family] must bring to me an offering from the new crop of grain.
Sabbath avai sarinae atangtho amom hoiyah hnin 50 touh na touk hnukkhu, Cathut koe tavai thuengnae a tha lah bout na sak han.
17 From your homes, bring two loaves of bread [to the priest]. He will lift them up [high to dedicate them] as an offering to me. Those loaves must be baked from three quarts/liters of good flour that has yeast mixed with it. That bread will be an offering to me from the first wheat that you harvest [each year].
BAWIPA hanlah aluepaw, ton ni a po sak e tavai ephah pung hra pung hni hoi sak e kahek hane vaiyei kahni touh na im hoi na sin awh han.
18 Along with this bread, you must present to me seven one-year-old lambs with no defects, one young bull, and two rams. They must all be completely burned [on the altar]. All those offerings, with the grain offering and the wine offering, will be burned, and the smell [of all those things burning] will be very pleasing to me.
Hote vaiyei hoi âvâ ka cawt hoeh rae tuca sari touh, maitotanca buet touh, hmae kahni touh, tavai thuengnae, awi thuengnae hoi cungtalah BAWIPA koe hmuitui nahanlah hmai hoi sawi e thuengnae lah kaawm e hmaisawi thuengnae sathei hah na thueng awh han.
19 Then you must also kill one male goat to be an offering/sacrifice for your sins, and two one-year-old male lambs to be an offering to enable you to maintain fellowship with me.
Yon thuengnae lah hmaeca buet touh thoseh, roum thuengnae hanlah âvâ ka cawt hoeh rae tuca kahni touh thoseh, na thueng han.
20 The priest will lift up these offerings [high to dedicate them] to me. He will also offer the loaves of bread that were baked from the first wheat that you harvest. Those offerings are sacred to me, but they are for the priests [to eat].
Vaihma ni aluepaw, vaiyei hoi cungtalah a kahek vaiteh, tuca kahni touh a sin vaiteh BAWIPA hmalah kahek thuengnae a sak han. Hote hnonaw haiyah vaihma hanlah BAWIPA hmalah kathounge hno lah ao.
21 On that day, you must stop your regular work and gather to worship me. You must always obey those instructions/commands, and you must obey them wherever you live.
Hote hnin dawk kathoung kamkhuengnae hah na sak awh han. Thaw banghai na tawk awh mahoeh. Na onae hmuen pueng koe na ca catoun ditouh na tarawi awh hane phunglawk lah ao.
22 “When you harvest the grain in your fields, do not harvest the grain along the edges of the fields, and do not pick up the grain that the harvesters drop. Leave that grain for the poor people and for the foreigners who are living among you. [Do not forget that it is] I, Yahweh your God, [who am commanding those things]!”
Na law dawk cang na a awh navah, lawri totouh koung na a awh mahoeh. Cabong na pâhma e hah bout na racawng mahoeh. Hotnaw teh karoedengnaw hoi imyinnaw hanlah na pek pouh han. Kai teh nangmae BAWIPA Cathut doeh telah a ti.
23 Yahweh also told Moses/me
BAWIPA ni Mosi koe, nang ni Isarel miphunnaw koe patuen bout na dei pouh hane teh,
24 to give these instructions/commands to the Israeli people: “[Each year] in September, on the day that I have chosen, you all must celebrate it by completely resting. You must not do any work on that day. When [the priests] blow their trumpets loudly, you all must gather together to worship me.
Nangmouh ni tha sari, apasuek hnin nah mongka ueng pawi kathoung kamkhuengnae sabbath hnin hah na ya awh han.
25 All of you must not do your regular work on that day. Instead, you must present offerings to me that will be burned [on the altar].”
Thaw na tawk awh mahoeh. BAWIPA hanlah hmaisawi thuengnae na sak han telah a ti.
26 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Cathut ni Mosi koe bout a dei e teh,
27 “You must celebrate a day [on which you request that I] forgive you for the sins that you have committed. That day will be nine days after the festival [when the priests blow] the trumpets. On that day you must (fast/abstain from eating food). You must gather together to worship me and present offerings to me that will be burned [on the altar].
Tha sari, hnin hra navah, yonthanae hnin, kathoung kamkhuengnae saknae hnin lah ao. Khang laihoi BAWIPA hanlah hmaisawi thuengnae na sak awh han.
28 You must not do any work on that day, because it is the day when the priests will offer sacrifices to me to (atone for/ask me to forgive) your sins.
Hote hnin dawk bang thaw hai na tawk mahoeh. Na BAWIPA Cathut hmalah yonthanae hnin lah ao.
29 You must expel from your group anyone who does not (fast/abstain from eating food) on that day.
Hote hnin nah, ka ya hoeh e taminaw teh amae miphun dawk hoi takhoe lah ao han.
30 I will get rid of anyone who does any kind of work on that day.
Hote hnin dawk thaw buetbuet ka tawk e tami teh a miphun dawk hoi a takhoe vaiteh ka raphoe han.
31 You must not work at all! You must always obey those instructions/commands, and you must obey them wherever you live.
Bang thaw hai na tawk awh mahoeh. Na onae hmuen pueng koe na ca catoun ditouh na tarawi awh hane phunglawk lah ao.
32 That day will be a day of complete rest for all of you, and on that day you must (fast/abstain from eating food) [to show that you are sorry for having sinned]. That day of rest and (fasting/abstaining from eating food) will begin on the evening before the day in which you ask me to forgive you for your sins, and it will end on the evening of the following day.”
Hote hnin teh yanae hnin lah ao. Atako hnin tangmin lahoi atangtho tangmin ditouh na ya awh han.
33 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Cathut ni Mosi koe, nang ni Isarel miphunnaw koe patuen bout na dei pouh hane teh,
34 “Tell the Israeli people that [each year] they must also celebrate a festival of living in temporary shelters. That festival will begin five days after the day in which they request me to forgive them for their sins. It will last for seven days.
Nangmouh ni tha sari, hnin hrahlaipanga hnin hoi hnin sari touh thung Cathut hanelah lukkarei pawi na sak awh han.
35 On the first day of that festival, the people must gather together to worship me, and they must not do any regular work on that day.
Apasuek hnin dawk kathoung kamkhuengnae na sak awh han. Thaw na tawk awh mahoeh.
36 On each of the seven days of the festival, they must present to me an offering [of animals] that will be burned [on the altar]. On the next day, they must gather again to worship me and present to me another animal that will be burned [on the altar]. That also will be a sacred gathering, and they must not work on that day, either.
Hnin sari touh thung BAWIPA koe hmaisawi thuengnae na sak awh han. A hnin taroe hnin haiyah, kathoung kamkhuengnae hoi BAWIPA koe hmaisawi thuengnae hah na sak awh han. Ka talue e kamkhuengnae lah ao dawkvah thaw na tawk awh mahoeh.
37 “[To summarize], those are the festivals that I have appointed. Celebrate those sacred festivals by gathering together to present to me all the various offerings that will be burned [on the altar]—animals that will be burned completely, and offerings of grain, and offerings to enable the Israeli people to maintain fellowship with me, and offerings of wine. Each offering must be brought on the day that I have indicated.
Hotnaw teh, BAWIPA e sabbath hnin, BAWIPA koe pasoumhno,
38 (Those festivals must be celebrated/You must celebrate those festivals) in addition to [worshiping on] the (Sabbath days/days of rest). And all those offerings must be given in addition to the offerings that people personally decide to give, and in addition to the offerings that people make to accompany the solemn promises that they have made, or offerings that people make (voluntarily/because they themselves want to).
Lawkkamnae lahoi thuengnae, lungtho lahoi thuengnae hloilah hnin touh hoi hnin touh BAWIPA koe hmaisawi thuengnae, tavai thuengnae, sathei thuengnae hoi awi thuengnae naw sak e lah kathoung kamkhuengnae, BAWIPA e pawinaw lah ao.
39 “[Returning to my instructions about] the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters, you must celebrate this festival after you have harvested all the crops. On the first day and on the last day of that festival, you must rest completely.
Hotnaw hloilah, law dawk e caticamu pâkhueng hnukkhu, tha sari, hnin hrahlaipanga hnin hoi hnin sari touh thung BAWIPA koe pawi na to awh han. Apasuek hnin hoi a taroe hnin vah sabbath na ya awh han.
40 But on the first day, you are permitted to pick fruit from trees. Cut palm fronds/branches and other leafy branches from trees or from bushes that grow by the streams, [and make shelters/huts to live in for that week]. Then rejoice in my presence for those seven days.
Apasuek hnin dawk a paw kahawihloe e, samtue kang hoi a hna karung e thingkangnaw hah a sin awh teh, Nangmae BAWIPA Cathut hmalah hnin sari touh thung na lunghawi sak awh.
41 You must celebrate this festival for seven days every year. You must never stop obeying my commands/instructions for that festival. You must celebrate it in September.
Hote pawi hah kum kum touh dawk hnin sari touh thung Cathut hanlah na sak awh han. Na miphun na catoun ditouh tarawi hane kawi phunglawk lah ao.
42 During the seven days of that festival, all of you people who have been Israelis your entire lives must live in shelters/huts.
Hote pawiteh thapa ayung sari nah na sak awh han.
43 That will remind your descendants that their ancestors lived in shelters [for many years] after I rescued them from Egypt. [Do not forget that] I, Yahweh your God, [am the one who is commanding this].”
Isarel miphunnaw Izip ram hoi tâcokhai navah, thingkang rim dawk o saknae hah na miphun, na catounnaw ni a panue thai nahanelah, Isarelnaw teh thingkang rim dawk hnin sari touh ao han. Kai teh nangmae BAWIPA Cathut doeh a ti.
44 So Moses/I gave to the Israeli people all those instructions concerning the festivals that Yahweh [wanted them to celebrate] each year.
Mosi ni hai BAWIPA e pawinaw hah Isarel miphunnaw koe na pathang pouh.
