Leviticus 27
1 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Angraeng mah Mosi taengah,
2 “Tell the Israeli people [that this is what I am saying to them]: If anyone solemnly promises to dedicate another person to [work solely] for me, the person who is dedicated to me is allowed to be free from having to do that by someone paying [to the priest] a fixed amount of money. The money that is given must be calculated by comparing it with the official pieces of silver in the Sacred Tent.
Israel kaminawk khaeah hae tiah thui paeh; nihcae khaeah, Kami maeto mah angmah ih atho kating ah, Angraeng khaeah paek han lokkamhaih sah nahaeloe,
3 [These are the amounts that must be paid]: 50 pieces of silver for men who are between 20 and 60 years old,
na pakoep o han ih atho loe hae tiah oh; saning pumphaeto hoi saning qui tarukto kaom nongpa loe, hmuenciim ih shekel tahhaih pongah, phoisa shekel qui pangato hoi akrang han oh.
4 30 pieces of silver for adult women [who are between 20 and 60 years old],
Nongpata ah om nahaeloe phoisa qui thumto hoiah akrang tih.
5 20 pieces of silver for young men who are between five and 20 years old, ten pieces of silver for young women who are between five and 20 years old,
Saning pangato hoi saning pumphaeto salak ih kami ah om nahaeloe, nongpa to shekel pumphaeto hoiah akrang ueloe, nongpata to shekel hato hoiah akrang tih.
6 five pieces of silver for boys who are between one month and five years old, three pieces of silver for girls who are between one month and five years old,
Khrahto hoi saning pangato salak kami ah om nahaeloe, nongpa to shekel pangato hoi akrang ueloe, nongpata to shekel thumto hoiah akrang tih.
7 15 pieces of silver for men who are more than 60 years old, ten pieces of silver for women who are more than 60 years old.
Saning qui tarukto hoi ranui bang kami ah om nahaeloe, nongpa to shekel hatlai pangato hoiah akrang ueloe, nongpata to shekel hato hoiah akrang tih.
8 ‘If anyone who has made such a solemn promise is very poor and unable to pay, to free that person from doing what he had promised, he must take that person to the priest. The priest will set the price [for freeing him] to be what the person who made that solemn promise is able to pay.
Anih loe na khaeh ih atho pongah amtang kue nahaeloe, to kami to qaima khaeah caeh haih ah; qaima mah anih ih atho to khaek tih; lokkamhaih sahkung mah paek thaih ih atho baktih toengah, qaima mah atho to khaek pae tih.
9 ‘If someone solemnly promises to give an animal that is acceptable to be an offering to me, that animal becomes sacred [and belongs to me].
Paek han lokkam ih hmuen loe pacah ih moi ah oh moe, Angraeng khaeah tathlang hanah sin nahaeloe, a paek ih hmuen to ciim.
10 The person who promised to give it must not give another animal instead of the one that he promised; he must not substitute a bad animal for a good one or even a better one than the one offered. If he would substitute one animal for the other, both animals would belong to me.
Kahoih maw, kasae maw, moi maeto hoi maeto athlaeng han om ai; moi maeto hoi maeto athlaeng nahaeloe, to moi hoi athlaeng han koeh ih kalah moi maeto loe ciimcai han angaih.
11 If the animal that he wishes to dedicate to me is a kind that is unacceptable to be an offering to me, he must take that animal to the priest.
Kaciim ai moi ah om nahaeloe, Angraeng khaeah tathlang han om ai; to pongah moi to khet hanah qaima khaeah caeh haih ah;
12 The priest will then decide what its value is, according to the animal’s good and bad points. Whatever value the priests sets will be the value of the animal, [and that is the price that the priest must pay for the animal].
anih mah kasae kahoih, atho to thui tih; atho loe qaima mah khaeh ih baktih toengah om tih.
13 If the man who gave the animal later decides that he wants to buy it back, he must pay [to the priest] that price plus an additional 20 percent.
Paekkung mah akrang han koeh nahaeloe, khaeh ih atho nuiah pangato thungah maeto thap ueloe akrang tih.
14 ‘[Similarly], if someone dedicates his house to be a sacred gift to belong to me, the priest will decide how much it is worth, which will depend on whether the house is in good condition. Whatever the priest says that it is worth, that will be its value [and that is the price that the priest must pay for it].
Kami maeto mah a im to Angraeng khaeah kaciim ah paek han koeh nahaeloe, kahoih maw, ka sae maw, atho loe qaima mah khaeh ih baktih toengah om tih.
15 If the man who dedicated his house to me later wants to buy it back, he must pay that price plus an additional 20 percent, and then the house will belong to him again.
To im to ciimsakkung mah akrang koeh nahaeloe, khaeh ih atho nuiah pangato thungah maeto thap ueloe, akrang tih; to pacoengah loe anih ih im ah om tih boeh.
16 ‘If someone dedicates to me some of the property that belongs to him and his family, its value will be determined by the number of bushels of seed that will be needed to plant seeds on that land: Its value will be ten pieces of silver for each bushel of seed.
Kami maeto mah a lawk ahap Angraeng khaeah paek nahaeloe, cang nazetto maw akunh, tito khet moe, atho khaeh han oh; barli cang homer maeto naah, atho phoisa shekel qui pangato oh.
17 If he dedicates the land during the Year of Celebration, its full value will be that amount.
Jubili saning thungah a lawk to paek nahaeloe, atho khaeh tangcae baktiah om poe tih.
18 But if he dedicates the field after the Year of Celebration, the priest will count the number of years until the next Year of Celebration, and if there are not many years that remain, the price will be much lower [than the full price].
Toe Jubili pacoengah ciimsak hanah lawk to paek nahaeloe, qaima mah hmabang ih Jubili phak hanah saning nazetto maw angai vop, tito kroek ueloe, khaeh tangcae ih atho to azuk tih.
19 If the person who dedicated the field later wants to buy it back, he must pay [to the priest] the price that the priest says it is worth, plus an added one-fifth, and then the field will belong to that man again.
Ciimsakkung mah angmah ih lawk to akrang let han koeh nahaeloe, khaeh tangcae atho nuiah pangato thungah maeto thap ueloe, akrang tih; to pacoengah loe a lawk ah om let tih boeh.
20 However, if he does not buy it back, or if it has been sold (OR, the priest has sold it) to someone else, that person will never be permitted to buy it back again.
Toe lawk to akrang let han koeh ai moe, kalah kami khaeah zaw nahaeloe, akrang let thai mak ai boeh.
21 In the Year of Celebration, it will become sacred again, and it will be given to the priest.
Jubili naah lawk to paek let nahaeloe, Angraeng khaeah paek ih hmuen ah oh baktih toengah, lawk to ciim tih; to lawk to qaimanawk ih hmuen ah om tih.
22 ‘If someone dedicates to me some land that he has bought, land which is not part of the land that his family has always owned,
Kami maeto mah angmah ih lawk na ai, kalah lawk to qan moe, Angraeng khaeah paek nahaeloe,
23 the priest will count the number of years until the next Year of Celebration to determine how much it is worth, and the man must pay that amount to the priest on that day, [and then that land will belong to that man again].
qaima mah Jubili karoek to khaeh ih atho to kroek ueloe, Angraeng khaeah ciimsakhaih niah atho to paek roep tih.
24 But in the Year of Celebration, the land will again be owned by the person from whom he bought it, the person whose family had always owned that land.
Jubili saning phak naah loe, to lawk zaw kami, lawk tawnkung khaeah paek let tih.
25 All the silver that is paid must be compared with the official pieces of silver in the Sacred Tent.
Khaeh ih atho loe hmuenciim ih shekel tahhaih baktih toengah om ueloe, shekel maeto naah gerah pumphaeto om tih.
26 ‘No one is permitted to dedicate to me the firstborn of any cow or sheep, because the firstborn already belongs to me [DOU].
Toe Angraeng ih hmuen ah kaom, tapen tangsuek pacah ih moinawk loe mi mah doeh ciimsak hanah tathlang han om ai; maitaw maw, to tih ai boeh loe tuu maw Angraeng ih hmuen ah ni oh.
27 If someone gives to me a kind of animal that is not acceptable to me, that person may later buy it back by paying what it is worth plus an additional 20 percent of its value. If he does not buy it back, it must be sold (OR, the priest must sell it) for its standard price.
Kaciim ai pacah ih moi loe, na khaeh ih atho baktih toengah akrang ah, khaeh ih atho nuiah pangato thungah maeto thap ah loe akrang ah; akrang han koeh ai nahaeloe, khaeh tangcae atho baktih toengah zaw ah.
28 ‘However, no slave or animal or family land that someone owns can be sold or bought back after it has been dedicated to me [and no price has been paid for it]. That kind of gift belongs to me permanently/forever.
Toe kami maeto mah tawnh ih kami maw, to tih ai boeh loe moi maw, to tih ai boeh loe lawk maw, Angraeng khaeah lokkam hoi paek ih hmuennawk boih loe, zaw thai mak ai ueloe, akrang doeh akrang let thai mak ai; palungthin boih hoi paek ih hmuen loe Angraeng khaeah kaciim koek hmuen ah oh.
29 ‘No person who has [done something that I consider to be very wicked] is permitted to be freed [from being punished]; that person must surely be executed.
Kaminawk mataeng doeh, paek tangcae kami loe, akrang let thai ai; hum han ni oh boeh.
30 ‘One tenth of all the crops and grain or fruit that is produced on anyone’s land is sacred and belongs to me.
Lawk ih cang maw, to tih ai boeh loe thingthai qumponawk maw, hato thungah maeto loe Angraeng ih hmuen ah oh, Angraeng ih kaciim hmuen ah oh.
31 If anyone wants to buy back any of that tenth, he must pay [to the priest] what it is worth plus an additional 20 percent.
Kami maeto mah hato thungah maeto akrang koeh nahaeloe, khaeh ih atho nuiah pangato thungah maeto thap pacoengah, akrang han oh.
32 One of every ten domestic animals belongs to me. When a shepherd counts his animals [MTY] [to decide which ones he will give to me], he must mark every tenth one as belonging to me.
Tuu maw, to tih ai boeh loe maitaw maw, tuu khawngkung ih cunghet thungah akun moinawk boih, hato thungah maeto loe, Angraeng khaeah kaciim hmuen ah oh.
33 When he does that, he must not pick out the good ones for himself or leave the bad ones, or substitute bad ones for good ones. If he substitutes one animal for another, both animals will belong to me, and he will not be permitted to buy them back (OR, the shepherd cannot buy them back).’”
Anih mah kasae maw, kahoih maw, qoi mak ai, moi doeh maeto hoi maeto athlaeng mak ai; athlaeng han koeh nahaeloe, paek ih moi hoi athlaeng ih moi to ciim hmaek han oh; akrang doeh akrang thai mak ai, tiah thui paeh, tiah a naa.
34 Those are the commands that Yahweh gave to Moses/me on Sinai Mountain [to tell to the people].
Hae loe Sinai mae ah Israel kaminawk han, Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah paek ih loknawk ah oh.
