Thou shalt not receive a vain report: thou shalt not agree with the unjust [man] to become an unjust witness.
2 Boethae dongah tah hlangping hnuk khaw om boeh. Kaengyai taengah hlangping neh kaengyai ham tuituknah dongah doo boeh.
Thou shalt not associate with the multitude for evil; thou shalt not join thyself with a multitude to turn aside with the majority so as to shut out judgment.
3 Tattloel long khaw a tuituknah dongah n'hiin boel saeh.
And thou shalt not spare a poor man in judgment.

And if thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt turn them back and restore them to him.

Thou shalt abstain from every unjust thing: thou shalt not slay the innocent and just, and thou shalt not justify the wicked for gifts.
8 Kapbaih khaw lo boeh, kapbaih loh miktueng khaw a dael sak tih a dueng ol khaw a paimaelh.
And thou shalt not receive gifts; for gifts blind the eyes of the seeing, and corrupt just words.
9 Yinlai khaw nen boeh, Egypt kho ah yinlai la na om van dongah yinlai kah hinglu te namah dongah ming puei.
And ye shall not afflict a stranger, for ye know the heart of a stranger; for ye were yourselves strangers in the land of Egypt.
10 Na khohmuen te kum rhuk tawn lamtah a vueithaih khaw coi.
Six years thou shalt sow thy land, and gather in the fruits of it.
11 Tedae a kum rhih te hmil lamtah haai sak. Te daengah ni na pilnam khodaeng loh a caak vetih a noi te khohmuen mulhing loh a caak. Na misurdum ham na olive ham khaw te te saii.
But in the seventh year thou shalt let it rest, and leave it, and the poor of thy nation shall feed; and the wild beasts of the field shall eat that which remains: thus shalt thou do to thy vineyard and to thine oliveyard.
12 Hnin rhuk khuiah na bibi te saii lamtah a rhih hnin ah duem dae. Na vaito neh na laak khaw duem vetih na salnu kah a ca neh yinlai khaw a thasai ni.
Six days shalt thou do thy works, and on the seventh day there shall be rest, that thine ox and thine ass may rest, and that the son of thy maid-servant and the stranger may be refreshed.

Observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and ye shall make no mention of the name of other gods, neither shall they be heard out of your mouth.

Keep ye a feast to me three times in the year.

Take heed to keep the feast of unleavened bread: seven days ye shall eat unleavened bread, as I charged thee at the season of the month of new [corn], for in it thou camest out of Egypt: thou shalt not appear before me empty.
16 Khohmuen na tawn te na bibi dongkah thaihcuek, cangah khotue neh kum boeih kah khohmuen lamloh na bibi na khoem vaengah cangyom khotue om ni.

Thou shalt bring the first-offerings of the first-fruits of thy land into the house of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a lamb in its mother's milk.
20 Longpuei ah nang aka ngaithuen ham neh ka hmoel hmuen hil nang aka khuen ham na mikhmuh ah puencawn kan tueih coeng ne.
And, behold, I send my angel before thy face, that he may keep thee in the way, that he may bring thee into the land which I have prepared for thee.

Take heed to thyself and hearken to him, and disobey him not; for he will not give way to thee, for my name is on him.
22 A ol te na hnatun rhoela na hnatun tih ka thui te boeih na ngai atah na thunkha te ka thunkha nah vetih nang aka daengdaeh te ka dum van ni.
If ye will indeed hear my voice, and if thou wilt do all the things I shall charge thee with, and keep my covenant, ye shall be to me a peculiar people above all nations, for the whole earth is mine; and ye shall be to me a royal priesthood, and a holy nation: these words shall ye speak to the children of Israel, If ye shall indeed hear my voice, and do all the things I shall tell thee, I will be an enemy to thine enemies, and an adversary to thine adversaries.
23 Ka puencawn he nang hmai ah pongpa vetih nang te Amori neh Khitti taengla, Perizzi neh Kanaan taengla, Khivee neh Jebusi taengla n'thak vetih amih te ka thup ni.
For my angel shall go as thy leader, and shall bring thee to the Amorite, and Chettite, and Pherezite, and Chananite, and Gergesite, and Evite, and Jebusite, and I will destroy them.
24 Amih kah pathen taengah bakop boel lamtah amih taengah thothueng boeh. Amih kah khoboe bangla saii boeh. Te rhoek te koengloeng rhoe koengloeng lamtah a kaam te phaek la phaek pah.
Thou shalt not worship their gods, nor serve them: thou shalt not do according to their works, but shalt utterly destroy them, and break to pieces their pillars.
25 BOEIPA na Pathen taengah tho na thueng daengah ni na buh neh na tui khaw a yoethen vetih na khui lamkah tlohtat te kang khoe eh.
And thou shalt serve the Lord thy God, and I will bless thy bread and thy wine and thy water, and I will turn away sickness from you.

There shall not be on thy land one that is impotent or barren. I will surely fulfil the number of thy days.

And I will send terror before thee, and I will strike with amazement all the nations to which thou shalt come, and I will make all thine enemies to flee.

And I will send hornets before thee, and thou shalt cast out the Amorites and the Evites, and the Chananites and the Chettites from thee.

I will not cast them out in one year, lest the land become desolate, and the beasts of the field multiply against thee.
30 Na pungtai hil na mikhmuh lamloh bet bet ka haek daengah ni khohmuen te na pang eh.
By little [and little] I will cast them out from before thee, until thou shalt be increased and inherit the earth.

And I will set thy borders from the Red Sea, to the sea of the Phylistines, and from the wilderness to the great river Euphrates; and I will give into your hand those that dwell in the land, and will cast them out from thee.
32 Amih taeng neh amih kah pathen taengah paipi saii boeh.
Thou shalt make no covenant with them and their gods.
33 Na khohmuen ah khosa uh boel saeh, kai taengah na tholh ve. A pathen taengah tho na thueng atah na taengah hlaeh la poeh van ni.
And they shall not dwell in thy land, lest they cause thee to sin against me; for if thou shouldest serve their gods, these will be an offence to thee.
