If a man takes a wife, and after they are married she is unpleasing to him because of some bad quality in her, let him give her a statement in writing and send her away from his house.
2 Tedae anih im lamloh coe tih a caeh van coeng atah hlang tloe hut la om coeng.
And when she has gone away from him, she may become another man's wife.

And if the second husband has no love for her and, giving her a statement in writing, sends her away; or if death comes to the second husband to whom she was married;

Her first husband, who had sent her away, may not take her back after she has been wife to another; for that is disgusting to the Lord: and you are not to be a cause of sin in the land which the Lord your God is giving you for your heritage.
5 A thai la yuu aka lo hlang loh caempuei taengah nuen boel lamtah a pum dongah bitat pakhat khaw phuei boel saeh. Kum khat tah amah im ah ommongsitoe la om saeh lamtah a yuu a loh te a kohoe puei saeh.
A newly married man will not have to go out with the army or undertake any business, but may be free for one year, living in his house for the comfort of his wife.
6 Kuelhsum neh leng khaw laikoi boeh, teka te a hinglu ni na laikoi.
No one is to take, on account of a debt, the stones with which grain is crushed: for in doing so he takes a man's living.

If a man takes by force one of his countrymen, the children of Israel, using him as his property or getting a price for him, that thief is to be put to death: so you are to put away evil from among you.

In connection with the leper's disease, take care to keep and do every detail of the teaching of the priests, the Levites: as I gave them orders, so you are to do.

If you let your brother have the use of anything which is yours, do not go into his house and take anything of his as a sign of his debt;
11 Kawtpoeng ah ana pai lamtah hnohol te cangpu kung amah loh nang taengah kawtpoeng la hang khuen saeh.
But keep outside till he comes out and gives it to you.

If he is a poor man, do not keep his property all night;
13 Khomik a tlak vaengah a hnohol te amah taengah bal rhoe bal. Te daengah ni a himbai khuila a yalh vaengah nang yoethen m'paek vetih nang ham khaw BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah duengnah la a om eh.
But be certain to give it back to him when the sun goes down, so that he may have his clothing for sleeping in, and will give you his blessing: and this will be put to your account as righteousness before the Lord your God.

Do not be hard on a servant who is poor and in need, if he is one of your countrymen or a man from another nation living with you in your land.

Give him his payment day by day, not keeping it back over night; for he is poor and his living is dependent on it; and if his cry against you comes to the ears of the Lord, it will be judged as sin in you.
16 A ca rhoek kongah a napa rhoek duek boel saeh lamtah a napa rhoek kongah a ca rhoek duek boel saeh. Hlang boeih he amah tholh dongah boeih duek uh saeh.

Be upright in judging the cause of the man from a strange country and of him who has no father; do not take a widow's clothing on account of a debt:
18 Egypt ah sal la na om tih BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang n'lat te khaw poek. Te dongah ni tahae kah olka he na vai hamla kai loh nang kang uen.
But keep in mind that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God made you free: for this is why I give you orders to do this.

When you get in the grain from your field, if some of the grain has been dropped by chance in the field, do not go back and get it, but let it be for the man from a strange land, the child without a father, and the widow: so that the blessing of the Lord your God may be on all the work of your hands.
20 Na olive te na hae phoeiah namah loh koep khael voel boeh. Yinlai ham, cadah neh nuhmai ham om pawn saeh.

Keep in mind that you were a servant in the land of Egypt: for this is why I give you orders to do this.
