< Numbers 19 >
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron. He said,
BAWIPA ni Mosi hoi Aron hah a pato teh,
2 “This is a statute, a law which I am commanding you: Say to the people of Israel that they must bring to you a red heifer without flaw or blemish, and which has never carried a yoke.
hethateh, BAWIPA kâlawk poe e phunglam kâlawk doeh. Isarel catounnaw hah maitola ka paling e kacuem e a laphu thueng pouh hoeh e, thokhai hanlah dei pouh.
3 Give the heifer to Eleazar the priest. He must bring it outside the camp, and someone must kill it in front of him.
Rapan hloilah ceikhai vaiteh, a hmalah thei thai nahanlah vaihma Eleazar koevah na poe han.
4 Eleazar the priest must take some of its blood with his finger and sprinkle it seven times toward the front of the tent of meeting.
Vaihma Eleazar ni a kutcarei hoi thipaling youn touh a la vaiteh, kamkhuengnae lukkareiim hmalah, vai sari touh paloupalou a kathek han.
5 Another priest must burn the heifer in his sight. He must burn its hide, flesh, and its blood with its dung.
Hottelah maitola teh a pho, a moi, a thi hoi a ei hai a mithmu vah hmaisawi han.
6 The priest must take cedarwood, hyssop, and scarlet wool, and throw it all into the middle of the burning heifer.
Vaihma ni sidar thing hoi dingsala hoi langsan a la vaiteh, maitola hmaisawinae koe a tâkhawng han.
7 Then he must wash his clothes and bathe in water. Then he may come into the camp, where he will remain unclean until the evening.
Vaihma ni a khohna a pâsu vaiteh, tui a kamhluk han. Hahoi roenae hmuen koe a cei han, tangmin totouh vaihma teh a khin han.
8 The one who has burned the heifer must wash his clothes in water and bathe in water. He will remain unclean until the evening.
Hmai kasawikung ni hai amae khohna a pâsu vaiteh tui a kamhluk han, tangmin totouh a khin han.
9 Someone who is clean must gather up the heifer's ashes and put them outside the camp in a clean place. These ashes must be kept for the community of the people of Israel. They will mix the ashes with water for purification from sin, since the ashes were from a sin offering.
Kathounge ni maitola hraba hah a kawn vai teh, rapan hloilah thoungnae hmuen koe a ta vaiteh, Isarel catounnaw, tamimaya hanlah kamthoungnae tui dawk a hno han, hethateh yon thung hoi thoungnae doeh.
10 The one who gathered the heifer's ashes must wash his clothes. He will remain unclean until the evening. This will be a permanent law for the people of Israel and the foreigners who stay with them.
Hahoi maitola hraba kakawnkung teh, a khohna a pâsu vaiteh, tangmin totouh a khin han. Hethateh Isarel catounnaw hoi ahnimouh koe kaawm e imyinnaw hanlah a yungyoe phunglam lah ao han.
11 Whoever touches the dead body of any man will be unclean for seven days.
Bangpatetlae tami ro nakunghai katekkung teh hnin sari touh thung a khin han rah.
12 Such a person must purify himself on the third day and on the seventh day. Then he will be clean. But if he does not purify himself the third day, then he will not be clean on the seventh day.
Hahoi tami teh hnin thum hnin vah hraba hoi a kamthoung vaiteh, hnin sari hnin vah a thoung han. Apâthum hnin kamthoung hoehpawiteh, asari hnin totouh a khin han.
13 Whoever touches a dead person, the body of a man who has died, and does not purify himself—this person defiles Yahweh's tabernacle. That person must be cut off from Israel because the water for impurity was not sprinkled on him. He will remain unclean; his uncleanness will remain on him.
Tami bangpatet ni hai Bangpatete tami ro hai a tek awh teh kamthoung awh hoehpawiteh, BAWIPA lukkareiim kakhinsakkung lah ao teh, hote tami teh Isarel taminaw thung dawk hoi hnoun e lah ao han. Kamthoungnae tui ahnimouh koe kathek sin lah ao hoeh dawkvah, a khin han. A khinnae hah ahnimouh koe ao rah.
14 This is the law for when someone dies in a tent. Everyone who goes into the tent and everyone who is already in the tent will be unclean for seven days.
Tami buet touh lukkareiim dawk dout pawiteh, hetheh kâlawk lah ao han. Lukkareiim dawk kâen e pueng teh lukkareiim dawk kaawm e pueng hnin sari touh thung a khin han.
15 Every open container with no cover becomes unclean.
Hahoi hlaam a khuem kâkhuem hoeh e puenghai a khin han.
16 Similarly, anyone outside a tent who touches someone who has been killed with a sword, any other dead body, a human bone, or a grave—that person will be unclean for seven days.
Hahoi tami bangpatet ni law vah, tahloi hoi a thei awh e thoseh, ao navah kadout e ro thoseh, tami kadout e hru thoseh, tangkom dawk thoseh, tek pawiteh hnin sari touh a khin han.
17 Do this for the unclean person: Take some ashes from the burnt sin offering and mix them in a jar with fresh water.
Hahoi kathoung hoeh naw hanlah, yon thoung nahanlah hmaisawi e, maitola hraba teh a la vaiteh, amamae tongben dawk, ka lawng e tui a ta awh han.
18 Someone who is clean must then take hyssop, dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, on all the containers inside the tent, on the persons who were there, and on anyone who touched the bone, the one who was killed, the one who died, or the grave.
Hahoi kathounge ni dingsala a la vaiteh, tui dawk a padung han. Hahoi lukkareiim hlaamnaw pueng hai haw e kaawmnaw pueng hraba thoseh, ka tek e pueng teh be a kahei sin han.
19 On the third day and on the seventh day, the clean person must sprinkle the unclean person. On the seventh day the unclean person must purify himself. He must wash his clothes and bathe in water. At evening he will become clean.
Hahoi kathounge naw ni apâthum hnin hoi asari hnin vah kathoung hoeh pueng a kahei sin han, a khohna a pâsu hoi tui a kamhluk vaiteh tangmin lah teh a thoung han.
20 But anyone who remains unclean, who refuses to purify himself—that person will be cut off from the community, because he has defiled Yahweh's sanctuary. The water for impurity has not been sprinkled on him; he remains unclean.
Hatei kakhin e ka kamthoung hoeh e niteh, BAWIPA e hmuen kathoung a khin sak dawkvah, hote tami teh kamkhueng e tamihu thung hoi takhoe e lah ao han. Kamthoungnae tui hah ahni koe kahei sin lah ao hoeh dawkvah, kakhin e lah ao.
21 This will be an ongoing law concerning these situations. The one who sprinkles the water for impurity must wash his clothes. The one who touches the water for impurity will become unclean until evening.
Hetheh ahnimouh han a yungyoe phunglam lah ao han. Kamthoungnae tui kahei sin e pueng ni a khohna a pâsu han, hahoi a kamthoungnae tui kateknaw pueng teh tangmin totouh a khin han.
22 Whatever the unclean person touches will become unclean. The person who touches it will become unclean until evening.”
Kathounghoehe naw ni a tek e pueng teh kakhin e lah awm toung vaiteh, hot hno kateknaw pueng teh, tangmin totouh a khin han, telah a ti.
