Numbers 8
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Pakaiyin Mose henga aseiyin,
2 “Speak to Aaron, and tell him, ‘When you light the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lamp stand.’”
“Aaron in hiche hilchahna ho hi pe in: Thaomei khom sagi chu atunna a natundoh teng le, amalam ma thaomei khom mailah chu a salvah jou nading nading in tundoh in.”
3 Aaron did so. He lit its lamps to light the area in front of the lamp stand, as Yahweh commanded Moses.
Aron in chutichun aboltan ahi. Thaomei khom Sagiho chun amailam salvahna din Pakaiyin Mose henga asei bang bang chun atungdohtan ahi.
4 This was the workmanship of the lamp stand, beaten work of gold. From its base to its flowers, it was beaten work. He made the lamp stand according to the pattern which Yahweh had shown Moses.
Hiche thaomei khom aboncha a, akhombul apat ajem kisemna changei chu sana kikhen a kisemdoh ahi. Hiche hi Pathen in Mose alim umding dol avetsah bangtah a kisem a ahi.
5 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Chuin Pakaiyin Mose henga ahisei in,
6 “Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them.
“Tun Israel mipi adangho jouse a kon in Levite tumkhen inlang, chonna dan ngai bang in sutheng sohkei in.
7 You shall do this to them to cleanse them: sprinkle the water of cleansing on them, let them shave their whole bodies with a razor, let them wash their clothes, and cleanse themselves.
Kisuhtheng na tui chu nathinkhum ding, amaho apumpiuva atahsa uva amul jouseu kivoumui diu chule amanchah jing apon hou akisoptheng diu ahi. Hitia chu abolteng uleh chonna dol a atheng a ahitauve.
8 Then let them take a young bull and its meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil; and another young bull you shall take for a sin offering.
Bongchal gol khat leh lhosohga maicham a kon a changbong Olive thao a kisunum chip chep, chule Bongchal golkhat mama toh chonset kilheina maicham a ding a ahin to dingu ahi.
9 You shall present the Levites before the Tent of Meeting. You shall assemble the whole congregation of the children of Israel.
Chuteng Israel nam mite jouse chu nakhopkhom a Houbuh kotphung a umdia Levite chu na peh doh ding ahi.
10 You shall present the Levites before Yahweh. The children of Israel shall lay their hands on the Levites,
Pathen na dinga Levite chu napeh doh teng le, Israel miten amaho chunga chu akhut u angap diu ahi.
11 and Aaron shall offer the Levites before Yahweh for a wave offering on the behalf of the children of Israel, that it may be theirs to do the service of Yahweh.
Aaron in akhut teni adopsanga Israel mipite lah a kon a Levite chu Pathen a dinga atumbeh a katohna aneiding, hitiachu Pathen lhacha natong ding a lhandohna anei ding ahi.
12 “The Levites shall lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and you shall offer the one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering to Yahweh, to make atonement for the Levites.
Hiche jouteng chule Levite jousen Bongnou achalni chung nga khut ngapna anei diu, Bongchalnou khat chu chule chonset maicham kisem chu pumgo maicham kisem na ding ahin, Pathen henga Levite chun ki suhtheng na anei diu cham dela umdiu ahiye.
13 You shall set the Levites before Aaron and before his sons, and offer them as a wave offering to Yahweh.
Aaron le achaten Levite chu Amaho ma sanga adin sah uva, akhot u adop sang jou teng uleh Pathen masanga loupi tah’a maicham a sempeh diu ahi.
14 Thus you shall separate the Levites from among the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine.
Levite chu Israel mipi telah akonna natum khandoh diu, ajeh chu amaho keija umjing diu ahi.
15 “After that, the Levites shall go in to do the service of the Tent of Meeting. You shall cleanse them, and offer them as a wave offering.
Hi chengse kichai teng, Houbuh sunga chu lut diu ana toh diu ijakai ajom thei diu ahi tai. Ajeh chu Pakaiyin amaho chu asuh thenga na pehdoh ahi tan nangma heng nga loupi tah ana peh doh ahi tai.
16 For they are wholly given to me from among the children of Israel; instead of all who open the womb, even the firstborn of all the children of Israel, I have taken them to me.
Israel mipite ding in Levite hi keima dinga kikoisa ahin Israelte chi lhah’a pang masa pen ho chu keima kona phondoh le lhen doh tum ahi tai. Levite chu numei chilhah apat kilah doh ahiye.
17 For all the firstborn among the children of Israel are mine, both man and animal. On the day that I struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I sanctified them for myself.
Israel mipite lah’a peng masapen mihem pasal ahin gancha hi jong leh keima ahi soh keiyin, Egypt mite pasal chapa masapen jouse kana suhmang nia pat chun keima dinga kana gontup sa ahi tai.
18 I have taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel.
Levite phung hi keiman Israelte lah’a chapa peng masa penna ka koi ahi tai.
19 I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons from among the children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the Tent of Meeting, and to make atonement for the children of Israel, so that there will be no plague among the children of Israel when the children of Israel come near to the sanctuary.”
Aaron le achate ho hi Levite vetup ding nga ki sem ahi tai. Israelte tha khel lah maicham Houbuh a kin theng na tong ding ahiuvin, pumgo maichamma kisuh thengna kin thenga a na tong le ding mong mong ahiuve.
20 Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel did so to the Levites. According to all that Yahweh commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so the children of Israel did to them.
Mose Aaron chule Israel mipi jousen Levite chu alheng doh un Pathen in amaho thu apeh dung juiyin abol tauvin ahi.
21 The Levites purified themselves from sin, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them for a wave offering before Yahweh and Aaron made atonement for them to cleanse them.
Leviten achonset na’u chu aki soptheng uvin chule aponsil ho jong aki noilhah un. Pathen masang nga loupi tah in maicham asem peh tai. Aaron in amaho chu maicham athengsel na ding uvin abolpeh in ajeh chu Pathen toh chamdela aum na diu ahiye.
22 After that, the Levites went in to do their service in the Tent of Meeting before Aaron and before his sons: as Yahweh had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so they did to them.
Chu teng Levite chu Houbuh maicham’a sunglha diu kintheng na toh apat diu, Aaron le achaten aki thopi diu ahiye. Amaho thu nit ding aki pat jouse Pathen in Levite jui dinga Mose ahin hetsah ho chun anit soh keiyun ahi.
23 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Chu in PakaiyinMose hengah hiti hin aseiyin ahi.
24 “This is what is assigned to the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall go in to wait on the service in the work of the Tent of Meeting;
Hiche dan hi Leviten anit’u ngaijin, Houbuh sunga chu kintheng na toh apat na diuva chu kum-somni le nga beh alhin’u ngaiding ahiye.
25 and from the age of fifty years they shall retire from doing the work, and shall serve no more,
Chule Levite chu kum-somnga alhin teng ule kichol thei ding ahitauve.
26 but shall assist their brothers in the Tent of Meeting, to perform the duty, and shall perform no service. This is how you shall have the Levites do their duties.”
Levite chu akichol joulam teng ule asopiu aloi agol hon Houbuh kimvella ajenle a jong pangthei nalaiju ahi. Ahin lah akintheng na tong vang pang thai ta lou ding ahi. Hi chengse hi Levite kin theng natoh na muna aman chah diu dan ahiye.
