< Leviticus 11 >

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
Angraeng mah Mosi hoi Aaron khaeah,
2 “Speak to the children 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 Whatever parts the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and chews the cud among the animals, that you may eat.
khokpadae kangphae, rawkcaak pathok thaih moinawk to caa oh, tiah a naa.
4 “‘Nevertheless these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those who part the hoof: the camel, because it chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, 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 The hyrax, because it chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, is unclean to you.
Satlaeh loe rawkcaak pathok thaih, toe khokpadae angphae ai pongah, nangcae han ciim ai.
6 The hare, because it chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, is unclean to you.
Saveh loe rawkcaak pathok thaih, toe khokpadae angphae ai pongah, nangcae han ciim ai.
7 The pig, because it has a split hoof, and is cloven-footed, but doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you.
Ok loe khokpadae hnetto angphae, toe rawkcaak pathok ai pongah, nangcae han ciim ai.
8 You shall not eat their meat. You shall not 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 “‘You may eat of all these that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, that you may eat.
Tuipui hoi vapui ih tanganawk thungah loe pakhraeh hoi ahlip kaom tanga to caa ah.
10 All that don’t have fins and scales in the seas and rivers, all that move in the waters, and all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination to 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 and you shall detest them. You shall not eat of their meat, and you shall detest their carcasses.
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 nor scales in the waters is an abomination to you.
Tui thungah kaom pakhraeh hoi ahlip katawn ai tanganawk loe nangcae hanah panuet thoh.
13 “‘You shall detest these among the birds; they shall not be eaten because they are an abomination: the eagle, the vulture, the black vulture,
Nangcae han panuet thoh moe, caak koi ai, panuet thok tavaanawk loe tahmu, tuipui ih tahmu, kamnum tahmu kaprawn,

19 the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and the bat.

20 “‘All flying insects that walk on all fours are an abomination to you.
Pakhraeh kaom, khok palito hoi kavak moinawk boih loe, nangcae han panuet thoh.
21 Yet you may eat these: of all winged creeping things that go on all fours, which have long, jointed legs for hopping on the earth.
Toe pakhraeh kaom, khok palito hoi kavak, long ah angphet thaih khok kasawk moinawk to loe caa oh.
22 Even of these you may eat: any kind of locust, any kind of katydid, any kind of cricket, and any kind of grasshopper.
Pakhuh kaho congca, rong kahing pakhuh, pakhuh kasim hoi dongtaritnawk to caa oh.
23 But all winged creeping things which have four feet are an abomination to you.
Toe khok palito katawn, long ah kavak azawk thaih moinawk loe nangcae han panuet thoh.
24 “‘By these you will become unclean: whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
To moinawk loe ciim ai; to moi kadueh qok sui kami loe duembang khoek to ciim mak ai.
25 Whoever carries any part of their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the 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 isn’t completely divided, or doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them shall 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 goes on its paws, among all animals that go on all fours, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall 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 He who carries their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. They are 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 “‘These are they which are unclean to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth: the weasel, the rat, any kind of great lizard,
Long ah kavak moinawk boih doeh, nangcae han ciim ai; caham, pazu, tokkang congca,
30 the gecko, and the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink, and the chameleon.
tawkkeh, kingkok, lungnat hoi salamhnawk to caa o hmah.
31 These are they which are unclean to you among all that creep. Whoever touches them when they are dead shall be unclean until the 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 Anything they fall on when they are dead shall be unclean; whether it is any vessel of wood, or clothing, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel it is, with which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the 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 Every earthen vessel into which any of them falls and all that is in it shall be unclean. You shall break it.
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 All food which may be eaten which is soaked in water shall be unclean. All drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be 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 Everything whereupon part of their carcass falls shall be unclean; whether oven, or range for pots, it shall be broken in pieces. They are unclean, and shall be 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 Nevertheless a spring or a cistern in which water is gathered shall be clean, but that which touches their carcass shall be 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 part of their carcass falls on any sowing seed which is to be sown, it is 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 seed, and part of their carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you.
Toe tui bawh ih aanmu nuiah kadueh moi maeto krah nahaeloe, nangcae han ciim mak ai boeh.
39 “‘If any animal of which you may eat dies, he who touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
Na caak o han koi moi maeto duek naah, kadueh moi sui kami loe, duembang khoek to ciim mak ai.
40 He who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. He also who carries its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the 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 creeping thing that creeps on the earth is an abomination. It shall not be eaten.
Long ah zok hoi avak moi loe kawbaktih moi doeh panuet thok moi ah oh; caak han om ai.
42 Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, even all creeping things that creep on the earth, them you shall not eat; for they are an abomination.
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 shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creeps. You shall not make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be defiled 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. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy. You shall not defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth.
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 shall 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 of the animal, and of the bird, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the earth,
Hae loe hinghaih katawn, long nui hoi tui thungah kavak moi kasannawk, tavaanawk boih kasaeng daan ah oh;
47 to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.’”
