Olrhaepnah 12
1 Khohmuen kah aka hing nangmih te na tue khuiah pang sak hamla na pa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA loh nang taengah m'paek khohmuen ah he rhoek kah oltlueh neh laitloeknah he vai hamla ngaithuen uh.
These are the laws and the decisions which you are to keep with care in the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, has given you to be your heritage all the days of your life on earth.
2 Na haek uh namtom rhoek loh tho a thueng nah hmuen boeih te milh rhoe milh sakuh. Amih kah pathen te tlang ah khaw, som ah khaw, thing hing hmui boeih ah a pomsang uh lah ko.
You are to give up to the curse all those places where the nations, whom you are driving out, gave worship to their gods, on the high mountains and the hills and under every green tree:
3 A hmueihtuk te palet lamtah a kaam te phaek uh. Amih kah Asherah te hmai neh hoeh uh. Amih kah pathen mueidaep te khaw tloek uh. A ming te te hmuen lamloh phae uh.
Their altars and their pillars are to be broken down, and their holy trees burned with fire, and the images of their gods cut down; you are to take away their names out of that place.
4 BOEIPA na Pathen taengah te bang te saii uh boeh.
Do not so to the Lord your God.
5 Tedae BOEIPA na Pathen loh amah ming a phuk tih khosak thil ham a coelh hmuen te mah nangmih koca boeih loh tlap uh lamtah paan uh.
But let your hearts be turned to the place which will be marked out by the Lord your God, among your tribes, to put his name there;
6 Te lam te na hmueihhlutnah neh hmueih khaw, parha pakhat neh na kut dongkah khocang khaw, na olcaeng neh na kothoh khaw, na saelhung neh na boiva cacuek te khaw khuen uh.
And there you are to take your burned offerings and other offerings, and the tenth part of your goods, and the offerings to be lifted up to the Lord, and the offerings of your oaths, and those which you give freely from the impulse of your hearts, and the first births among your herds and your flocks;
7 BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah ca uh. BOEIPA na Pathen loh na yoe han then sak vanbangla namamih neh na imkhui kah na kut thuengnah boeih dongah na kohoe sakuh.
There you and all your families are to make a feast before the Lord your God, with joy in everything to which you put your hand, because the Lord has given you his blessing.
8 Tihnin kah he rhoek ah mamih boeih loh n'saii uh bangla saii uh boeh. Hlang he amah mikhmuh ah boeih thuem ta.
You are not to do things then in the way in which we now do them here, every man as it seems right to him:
9 Duemnah neh BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang taengah m'paek rho khuiah na kun uh pawt ve.
For you have not come to the rest and the heritage which the Lord your God is giving you.
10 Jordan na poeng uh tih BOEIPA na Pathen loh nangmih m'pang sak khohmuen la na om uh vaengah a kaepvai kah na thunkha cungkuem taeng lamloh nangmih n'duem sak vetih ngaikhuek la kho na sak uh bitni.
But when you have gone over Jordan and are living in the land which the Lord your God is giving you as your heritage, and when he has given you rest from all those on every side who are fighting against you, and you are living there safely;
11 Tedae BOEIPA na Pathen loh amah ming om sak ham amah taengah a coelh hmuen te om bitni. Teah tah kai loh nangmih kang uen vanbangla na hmueihhlutnah neh na hmueih khaw, parha pakhat neh na kut dongkah khocang khaw, BOEIPA taengah na caeng, olcaeng piyawn boeih khaw boeih khuen uh.
Then there will be a place marked out by the Lord your God as the resting-place for his name, and there you will take all the things which I give you orders to take: your burned offerings and other offerings, and the tenth part of your goods, and the offerings to be lifted up, and the offerings of your oaths which you make to the Lord;
12 Te vaengah namamih neh na canu na capa rhoek khaw, na salpa neh na salnu rhoek khaw, nangmih bangla khoyo neh rho om pawt tih na vongka khuiah aka om Levi rhoek khaw BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah na kohoe sakuh.
And you will be glad before the Lord your God, you and your sons and your daughters, and your men-servants and your women-servants, and the Levite who is with you in your house, because he has no part or heritage among you.
13 Namah te ngaithuen, na hmuh bangla hmuen cungkuem ah na hmueihhlutnah na tloeng ve.
Take care that you do not make your burned offerings in any place you see:
14 Namah koca pakhat khuiah BOEIPA kah a coelh hmuen bueng ah ni na hmueihhlutnah te na nawn vetih kang uen bangla boeih na saii eh.
But in the place marked out by the Lord in one of your tribes, there let your burned offerings be offered, and there do what I have given you orders to do.
15 Tedae na hinglu loh a hue boeih te ngawn lamtah BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang m'paek yoethennah maeh la ca. Na vongka khuikah boeih te tah rhalawt neh a cuem khaw rhangrhaeh bangla, kirhang bangla ca saeh.
Only you may put to death animals, such as the gazelle or the roe, for your food in any of your towns, at the desire of your soul, in keeping with the blessing of the Lord your God which he has given you: the unclean and the clean may take of it.
16 Tedae thii te tah ca boeh. Diklai dongah tui bangla hawk.
But you may not take the blood for food, it is to be drained out on the earth like water.
17 Na cangpai, misur thai, situi parha pakhat khaw, na saelhung neh boiva cacuek, na caeng tangtae na olcaeng boeih, na kothoh neh na kut dongkah khosaa tah na vongka ah na caak ham coeng pawh.
In your towns you are not to take as food the tenth part of your grain, or of your wine or your oil, or the first births of your herds or of your flocks, or anything offered under an oath, or freely offered to the Lord, or given as a lifted offering;
18 Namah neh na canu na capa long khaw, na salnu salpa long khaw, na vongka khuiah aka om Levi long khaw, BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah ca uh. Tekah a hmuen te tah BOEIPA na Pathen amah long ni a tuek. Te dongah na kut thuengnah boeih nen khaw BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah na kohoe sakuh.
But they will be your food before the Lord your God in the place of his selection, where you may make a feast of them, with your son and your daughter, and your man-servant and your woman-servant, and the Levite who is living with you: and you will have joy before the Lord your God in everything to which you put your hand.
19 Namah te ngaithuen. na khohmuen kah na hing tue khuiah Levi rhoek te na hnoo ve ne.
See that you do not give up caring for the Levite as long as you are living in your land.
20 Nang taengkah a thui vanbangla BOEIPA na Pathen loh na khorhi hang aeh vaengah na hinglu loh maeh caak hamla a nai tih, “Maeh ka caak lah sue,” na ti oeh atah na hinglu loh a hue mebang maeh khaw na caak thai.
When the Lord your God makes wide the limit of your land, as he has said, and you say, I will take flesh for my food, because you have a desire for it; then you may take whatever flesh you have a desire for.
21 BOEIPA na Pathen loh amah ming phuk thil ham a coelh hmuen te nang lamloh hlavak oeh tih, BOEIPA loh nang m'paek saelhung neh boiva ni na ngawn atah, kang uen vanbangla na hinglu loh a hue bangla namah vongka ah khaw ca mai.
If the place marked out by the Lord your God as the resting-place for his name is far away from you, then take from your herds and from your flocks which the Lord has given you, as I have said, and have a meal of it in the towns where you may be living.
22 Rhangrhaeh neh kirhang na caak bangla ca saeh lamtah rhalawt akhaw a cuem akhaw rhenten ca saeh.
It will be your food, like the gazelle and the roe; the unclean and the clean may take of it.
23 Tedae a thii tah hinglu la a om dongah thii te caak pawt ham tuem uh. A hinglu te maeh neh hmaih ca boeh.
But see that you do not take the blood for food; for the blood is the life; and you may not make use of the life as food with the flesh.
24 Te te ca boel lamtah diklai dongah tui bangla hawk.
Do not take it for food but let it be drained out on the earth like water.
25 Na caak pawt daengah ni BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem la a saii vetih namah neh namah hnukkah na ca rhoek loh khophoeng a pha eh.
Do not take it for food; so that it may be well for you and for your children after you, while you do what is right in the eyes of the Lord.
26 Tedae namah taengkah aka om hnocim neh na olcaeng tah khuen lamtah BOEIPA kah a coelh hmuen te mah paan puei.
But the holy things which you have, and the offerings of your oaths, you are to take to the place which will be marked out by the Lord:
27 Na hmueihhlutnah maeh neh thii te BOEIPA na Pathen kah hmueihtuk soah nawn. Tedae na hmueih thii te BOEIPA na Pathen kah hmueihtuk dongah hawk lamtah a saa tah ca mai.
Offering the flesh and the blood of your burned offerings on the altar of the Lord your God; and the blood of your offerings is to be drained out on the altar of the Lord your God, and the flesh will be your food.
28 Kai loh nang kang uen olka boeih he ngaithuen lamtah hnatun. Te daengah ni BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah a thuem neh a then la na saii vetih namah neh na hnukkah na ca rhoek long khaw kumhal duela khophoeng a pha eh.
Take note of all these orders I am giving you and give attention to them, so that it may be well for you and for your children after you for ever, while you do what is good and right in the eyes of the Lord your God.
29 Namtom haek ham na paan vaengah BOEIPA na Pathen loh na mikhmuh lamkah a tulnoi coeng. Te dongah ni amih te na haek tih a khohmuen ah kho na sak.
When the people of the land where you are going have been cut off before you by the Lord your God, and you have taken their land and are living in it;
30 Namah te ngaithuen, na mikhmuh lamkah amih a mitmoeng sak phoeiah amih hnukah n'hlaeh ve. Te dongah, “Namtom rhoek loh a pathen taengah metlam a tho a thueng uh, kai long khaw ka saii van mako?,” aka ti hamla amih kah pathen kawng te na toem ve.
After their destruction take care that you do not go in their ways, and that you do not give thought to their gods, saying, How did these nations give worship to their gods? I will do as they did.
31 BOEIPA kah a tueilaehkoi boeih te tah BOEIPA na Pathen taengah saii boeh. A pathen taengah hmai neh a canu a capa a hoeh uh tih a pathen ham a saii uh te a hmuhuet.
Do not so to the Lord your God: for everything which is disgusting to the Lord and hated by him they have done in honour of their gods: even burning their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods.
32 Kai loh nang kang uen olka boeih he na saii tih na thap pawt ham neh na yueh pawt hamla ngaithuen.
You are to keep with care all the words I give you, making no addition to them and taking nothing from them.
