< Leviticus 11 >

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
Angraeng mah Mosi hoi Aaron khaeah,
2 “Speak to the people of Israel, saying, 'These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth.
Israel kaminawk khaeah, Long ah kaom moinawk boih thungah,
3 You may eat any animal that has a split hoof and that also chews the cud.
khokpadae kangphae, rawkcaak pathok thaih moinawk to caa oh, tiah a naa.
4 However, some animals either chew the cud or have a split hoof, and you must not eat them, animals such as the camel, because it chews the cud but does not have a split hoof. So the camel is unclean to you.
Rawkcaak loe pathok, khokpadae doeh angphae, toe caak koi ai moinawk thungah kaengkuu hrang loe, rawkcaak pathok thaih, toe khokpadae angphae ai pongah, nangcae han ciim ai.
5 Also the rock badger, because it chews the cud but does not have a split hoof, it is also unclean to you.
Satlaeh loe rawkcaak pathok thaih, toe khokpadae angphae ai pongah, nangcae han ciim ai.
6 The rabbit, because it chews the cud, but does not have a split hoof, is unclean to you.
Saveh loe rawkcaak pathok thaih, toe khokpadae angphae ai pongah, nangcae han ciim ai.
7 The pig, although it has a split hoof, does not chew the cud, is unclean to you.
Ok loe khokpadae hnetto angphae, toe rawkcaak pathok ai pongah, nangcae han ciim ai.
8 You must not eat any of their meat, nor touch their carcasses. They are unclean to you.
To baktih moinawk to caa hmah loe, kadueh qok doeh sui hmah; nangcae han ciim ai.
9 The animals living in the water that you may eat are all those that have fins and scales, whether in the ocean or in the rivers.
Tuipui hoi vapui ih tanganawk thungah loe pakhraeh hoi ahlip kaom tanga to caa ah.
10 But all living creatures that do not have fins and scales in the ocean or rivers, including all that move in the water and all the living creatures that are in the water— they must be detested by you.
Toe tuipui hoi vapui ah kaom, pakhraeh hoi ahlip kaom ai, tuipui hoi vapui thungah kaom, hinghaih katawn, angtawt thaih moinawk loe, nangcae hanah panuet thoh.
11 Since they must be detested, you must not eat of their meat; also, their carcasses must be detested.
To moinawk loe nangcae han panuet thoh pongah, nihcae ih moi to caa o hmah; kadueh moi loe panuet thoh.
12 Whatever has no fins or scales in the water must be detested by you.
Tui thungah kaom pakhraeh hoi ahlip katawn ai tanganawk loe nangcae hanah panuet thoh.
13 The birds you must detest and that you must not eat are these: the eagle, the vulture,
Nangcae han panuet thoh moe, caak koi ai, panuet thok tavaanawk loe tahmu, tuipui ih tahmu, kamnum tahmu kaprawn,
14 the kite, any kind of falcon,
moi kacaa tahmu, van ah kamhet tahmunawk boih,
15 every kind of raven,
pangaah hoi kanghmong tavaa boih,
16 the horned owl and the screech owl, the seagull, and any kind of hawk.
bukbuh, aqum ah kazawk tahmu, tahmu congca,
17 You must also detest the little owl and the great owl, the cormorant,
bukbuh kasim, bukbuh kaho, tahnong ah rawkcaak patunghaih kaom tahmawh sawk tavaa,
18 the white owl and the barn owl, the osprey,
tahnong sawk tui tavaa, tanga kacaa tahnong sawk tui tavaa, praezaek ih bukbuh, tanga kacaa tahmu,
19 the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and also the bat.
khok kasawk tavaa, longpai khokpadae hoi kanghmong tahnongsawk tavaa congca, tahmawh sawk tavaanawk hoi pungpihnawk hae ni.
20 All winged insects that walk on four legs are detestable to you.
Pakhraeh kaom, khok palito hoi kavak moinawk boih loe, nangcae han panuet thoh.
21 Yet you may eat any of the flying insects that also walk on four legs if they have jointed legs for hopping on the ground.
Toe pakhraeh kaom, khok palito hoi kavak, long ah angphet thaih khok kasawk moinawk to loe caa oh.
22 You may also eat any kind of locust, katydid, cricket, or grasshopper.
Pakhuh kaho congca, rong kahing pakhuh, pakhuh kasim hoi dongtaritnawk to caa oh.
23 But all the flying insects that have four feet must be detested by you.
Toe khok palito katawn, long ah kavak azawk thaih moinawk loe nangcae han panuet thoh.
24 You will become unclean until evening by these animals if you touch a carcass of one of them.
To moinawk loe ciim ai; to moi kadueh qok sui kami loe duembang khoek to ciim mak ai.
25 Whoever picks up one of their carcasses must wash his clothes and remain unclean until evening.
To baktih moi qok sui kami loe, a khukbuen to pasuk han oh; anih loe duembang khoek to ciim mak ai.
26 Every animal which has a split hoof that is not completely divided or which does not chew the cud is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them will be unclean.
Khokpadae akah boih ai, rawkcaak doeh pathok ai moinawk loe nangcae han ciim ai; to baktih kadueh moi sui kami loe ciim ai.
27 Whatever walks on its paws among all the animals that walk on all four legs, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches such a carcass will be unclean until the evening.
Khok palito hoi kacaeh moinawk boih, khokpacin hoiah kavak moinawk boih loe, nangcae han ciim ai; to baktih kadueh moi sui kami loe duembang khoek to ciim mak ai.
28 Whoever picks up such a carcass must wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening. These animals will be unclean to you.
To baktih kadueh moi sui kami loe, a khukbuen to pasuk han oh; anih loe duembang khoek to ciim mak ai; to moi loe nangcae han ciim ai.
29 Of the animals that creep on the ground, these are the animals that will be unclean to you: the weasel, the rat, every kind of large lizard,
Long ah kavak moinawk boih doeh, nangcae han ciim ai; caham, pazu, tokkang congca,
30 the gecko, the monitor lizard, the lizard, the skink, and the chameleon.
tawkkeh, kingkok, lungnat hoi salamhnawk to caa o hmah.
31 Of all the animals that creep, these are the animals which will be unclean to you. Whoever touches them when they are dead will be unclean until evening.
Long ah avak moinawk boih loe nangcae han panuet thoh; to baktih kadueh moi sui kami loe, duembang khoek to ciim mak ai.
32 If any of them dies and falls on anything, that thing will be unclean, whether it is made of wood, cloth, leather, or sackcloth. Whatever it is and whatever it is used for, it must be put into water; it will be unclean until evening. Then it will be clean.
To moinawk to dueh moe, hmuen maeto nuiah krah moeng nahaeloe, to hmuen loe ciim mak ai boeh; to kadueh moi to thing maw, to tih ai boeh loe khukbuen maw, to ai boeh loe moi hin nuiah maw, to tih ai boeh loe kazii nuiah maw, krah moeng nahaeloe, to hmuennawk loe ciim mak ai boeh; to hmuennawk to tui padung ah; duembang khoek to ciim mak ai; to tiah sak pacoeng naah ni ciim vop tih.
33 For every clay pot into or onto which any unclean animal falls, whatever is in the pot will become unclean, and you must destroy that pot.
To kadueh moi to long laom maeto nuiah krah moeng nahaeloe, to long laom loe ciim ai boeh pongah, laom to pakhoih han oh.
34 Any food that could be eaten but has water on it from such a pot is unclean. Any liquid that is for drinking from such a pot is unclean.
To laom thung ih tui to caak koi buh aan pongah krah moeng nahaeloe, ciim mak ai; a krakhaih boengloeng thung ih tui doeh ciim mak ai boeh.
35 Anything that one of their carcasses falls on becomes unclean; if it is an oven or small stove, it must be broken to pieces. They are unclean and they must remain unclean to you.
To moi loe takoeng nuiah maw, to tih ai boeh loe laom nuiah maw, krah moeng nahaeloe, to hmuennawk loe nangcae han ciim ai boeh pongah, pakhoih boih han oh.
36 A spring or cistern for collecting water remains clean; but anyone who touches their carcass is unclean.
Vacong, to tih ai boeh loe tuibap ih tui loe ciim, toe kadueh moi maeto mah sui moeng ih hmuen boih loe ciim mak ai boeh.
37 If any part of their carcass falls upon any seeds for planting, those seeds will still be clean.
Toe kadueh moi to patit han suek ih aanmu nuiah krah moeng nahaeloe, aanmu loe ciim tih.
38 But if water is put on the seeds, and if any part of their carcass falls on them, then they will be unclean to you.
Toe tui bawh ih aanmu nuiah kadueh moi maeto krah nahaeloe, nangcae han ciim mak ai boeh.
39 If any animal that you may eat dies, then he who touches the carcass will be unclean until evening.
Na caak o han koi moi maeto duek naah, kadueh moi sui kami loe, duembang khoek to ciim mak ai.
40 Whoever eats any of that carcass must wash his clothes and be unclean until evening. Anyone who picks up such a carcass will wash his clothes and be unclean until evening.
Mi kawbaktih doeh kadueh moi caa kami loe, a khukbuennawk to pasuk han oh; anih loe duembang khoek to ciim mak ai; mi kawbaktih doeh kadueh moi akhui kami loe, a khukbuen to pasuk han oh; anih loe duembang khoek to ciim mak ai.
41 Every animal that creeps on the ground is to be detested; it must not be eaten.
Long ah zok hoi avak moi loe kawbaktih moi doeh panuet thok moi ah oh; caak han om ai.
42 Whatever crawls on its belly, and whatever walks on all four legs, or whatever has many feet—all the animals that creep on the ground, these you must not eat, for they are to be detested.
Long ah zok hoi kavak moi maw, to tih ai boeh loe khok palito hoiah kacaeh moi maw, to tih ai boeh loe khok palito pongah kapop khoknawk hoi kacaeh moi to caa o hmah; nangcae han panuet thoh.
43 You must not make yourselves unclean with any living creatures that creep; you must not make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be made impure by them.
Long ah kavak kawbaktih moi hoiah doeh nangmah hoi nangmah to panuet thok ah sah hmah; to moinawk hoiah kaciim ai hmuen to sah hmah.
44 For I am Yahweh your God. You are to keep yourselves holy, therefore, and be holy, because I am holy. You must not defile yourselves with any kind of animal that moves about on the ground.
Kai loe na Angraeng Sithaw ah ka oh; Kai loe ciimcai pongah, nangmacae hoi nangmacae to kaciim ah angpaek oh loe, ciimcai oh; nangmacae hoi nangmacae to long ah kavak moi hoiah amhnong o hmah.
45 For I am Yahweh, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You must therefore be holy, for I am holy.
Kai loe Izip prae thung hoi nangcae zaehoikung, na Angraeng Sithaw ah ka oh; to pongah Ka ciimcai baktih toengah, nangcae doeh ciimcai oh.
46 This is the law regarding the animals, the birds, every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the ground,
Hae loe hinghaih katawn, long nui hoi tui thungah kavak moi kasannawk, tavaanawk boih kasaeng daan ah oh;
47 for which a distinction is to be made between the unclean and the clean, and between the living things that may be eaten and the living things that may not be eaten.'”
caak koi moi hoi caak koi ai moi, kaciim moi hoi kaciim ai moi to tapraek oh, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa.
