Deuteronomy 14

1 You are the children of Yahweh your God. You shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.

Nangho Pakai, na Pathen a mong nahinau photchetna ding in, nachalsam kalval uva navotol louhel diu ahi. Hichu athiho lunghempina ahi.

2 For you are a holy people to Yahweh your God, and Yahweh has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.

Pakai, na Pathen diuva nangho atheng nahi tauve, leiset chunga nam jouse lah a goulu pena nalhen doh’u ahitai.

3 You shall not eat any abominable thing.

Chule gancha boh kiti phot naneh thei lou diu ahi.

4 These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,

Hichengse vang hi naneh thei diu ahi: bongchal, kelngoi, kelcha,

5 the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the chamois.

sajuh, pelkai, sakhi, gam kel, chule molchunga kelngoi jaona neneh thei diu ahi.

6 Every animal that parts the hoof, and has the hoof split in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat.

Nanghon a-an lhai umho naneh thei diu ahi.

7 Nevertheless these you shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of those who have the hoof split: the camel, the hare, and the rabbit. Because they chew the cud but don’t part the hoof, they are unclean to you.

Hinlah a-an lhai umlou sa vang chu naneh lou diu ahi. Hichu sangong sang, talep, bui amaho cheng hin an-lhai aneiyun ahinlah a-ihdoh pouvin ahi. Hijeh achu hiche gancha hohi nangho dinga atheng lou ahi.

8 The pig, because it has a split hoof but doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you. You shall not eat their meat. You shall not touch their carcasses.

Chule vohcha jong naneh lou diu ahi. Anlhai aneiyin hinlah a-ihdoh poi, hijeh achu nangho dia atheng lou ahiye. Hiche gancha hose hi neh jong naneh thei lou diu chule tohjong natoh khah lou diu ahi.

9 These you may eat of all that are in the waters: you may eat whatever has fins and scales.

Twikhanglen'a cheng ganhing lah a, aling nei naneh thei diu ahi.

10 You shall not eat whatever doesn’t have fins and scales. It is unclean to you.

Hijeh chun twikhanglen'a um alingnei naneh diu, hinlah aling nei lou kitiphot vang naneh lou diu ahi. Ajeh chu hichengse hi nangho dia atheng lou ahi.

11 Of all clean birds you may eat.

Chule nanghon chungleng vacha namkim naneh thei diu ahi.

12 But these are they of which you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey,

Hinlah vacha hichengse hi naneh thei lou diu ahi: muthang chule mubong naneh lou diu,

13 the red kite, the falcon, the kite of any kind,

chule Muvom, muthi, sumbupi,

14 every raven of any kind,

va-ah leh ama tobang va dang jouse,

15 the ostrich, the owl, the seagull, the hawk of any kind,

muthi, muthi-muhchom, chule adang phabep jaona,

16 the little owl, the great owl, the horned owl,

sumbupi nou, sumbupi len, sumbu changlit,

17 the pelican, the vulture, the cormorant,

muthibong, sumbu changlit, sumbupi, Egypt mite muthi,

18 the stork, the heron after its kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.

bah chule adang phabep jaona naneh lou diu ahi.

19 All winged creeping things are unclean to you. They shall not be eaten.

Tollham a ganhing vahle jouse hi naneh lou diu ahi, ajeh chu atheng lou ahi.

20 Of all clean birds you may eat.

Hinlah vacha lhanei atheng kitiphot chu naneh diu ahi.

21 You shall not eat of anything that dies of itself. You may give it to the foreigner living among you who is within your gates, that he may eat it; or you may sell it to a foreigner; for you are a holy people to Yahweh your God. You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.

Ganthikam kiti naneh louhel diu ahi. Nakhopi sunguva kholjin miho naneh sah thei diu ahilouleh na hetkhah lou mikoma najoh thei diu ahi. Amavang nanghon naneh thei louhel diu ahi. Ajeh chu Pakai, na Pathen diuva atheng nahiuve. Chule nanghon kelchanou chu kelchapi noituiya nahon lou diu ahi.

22 You shall surely tithe all the increase of your seed, that which comes out of the field year by year.

Gasoh lah a somakhat ding nakoi doh diu gasoh jouse lah a, somakhat kumseh le na katdoh diu ahi.

23 You shall eat before Yahweh your God, in the place which he chooses to cause his name to dwell, the tithe of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock; that you may learn to fear Yahweh your God always.

Hiche somakhat chu Pathen houna muna nahin choi diu Pakai, Pathen in amin dopsang nadinga alhenna muna chu nahin choi diu, hichu Pakai angsunga naneh diu ahi.

24 If the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry it because the place which Yahweh your God shall choose to set his name there is too far from you, when Yahweh your God blesses you,

Pakai, na Pathen uvin phatthei nahin boh tenguleh mun gam lha tah hijongleh lousohga tamtah nalo diu, chuteng hoilai muna kon hijongleh somakhat nahin choi diu ahi.

25 then you shall turn it into money, bind up the money in your hand, and shall go to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose.

Amun chu agamlhat behseh a ahileh, hiche gasoh chu najoh diu najohna manu vang chu Pakai, na Pathen'u houna muna chu nalhut diu ahi.

26 You shall trade the money for whatever your soul desires: for cattle, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever your soul asks of you. You shall eat there before Yahweh your God, and you shall rejoice, you and your household.

Nahung lhun tenguleh, nanghon nadeichan nasumuva nakichoh diu bongchal, kelngoi, kelcha, lengpitwi chule adang donthei nachoh jeng theiyu ahi. Chuteng nangho leh nainsung mi teuvin Pakai ansunga an-najon khom diu ahi.

27 You shall not forsake the Levite who is within your gates, for he has no portion nor inheritance with you.

Chule nalah uva Levi mite nahebol jing diu ahi. Ajeh chu amaho chenna ding nei louva um ahiuve.

28 At the end of every three years you shall bring all the tithe of your increase in the same year, and shall store it within your gates.

Kumthum lhinsih leh somakhat achombeh a nahin choi diu, hichu khopi toh kinaichaa nakhol khom diu,

29 The Levite, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you, as well as the foreigner living among you, the fatherless, and the widow who are within your gates shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Yahweh your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.

hichu Levi mite napeh diu ahi. Ajeh chu amaho gam nei louva khosa ahiuvin, hichu amahon aneh uva lungkim sela umdiu ahit. Chutile Pakai, na Pathen uvin phatthei naboh diu ahi.
