Deuteronomy 14

1 Ye are sons of Jehovah your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for a dead person.

Nangho Pakai, na Pathen a mong nahinau photchetna ding in, nachalsam kalval uva navotol louhel diu ahi. Hichu athiho lunghempina ahi.

2 For thou art a holy people unto Jehovah thy God, and thee hath Jehovah chosen for a people of possession unto himself, out of all the peoples that are upon the face of the earth.

Pakai, na Pathen diuva nangho atheng nahi tauve, leiset chunga nam jouse lah a goulu pena nalhen doh’u ahitai.

3 Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.

Chule gancha boh kiti phot naneh thei lou diu ahi.

4 These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat;

Hichengse vang hi naneh thei diu ahi: bongchal, kelngoi, kelcha,

5 the hart, and the gazelle, and the stag, and the wild goat, and the dishon and the oryx, and the wild sheep.

sajuh, pelkai, sakhi, gam kel, chule molchunga kelngoi jaona neneh thei diu ahi.

6 And every beast that hath cloven hoofs, and the feet quite split open into double hoofs, [and] which cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that ye shall eat.

Nanghon a-an lhai umho naneh thei diu ahi.

7 Only these ye shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those with hoofs cloven and split open: the camel, and the hare, and the rock-badger; for they chew the cud, but have not cloven hoofs — they shall be unclean unto you;

Hinlah a-an lhai umlou sa vang chu naneh lou diu ahi. Hichu sangong sang, talep, bui amaho cheng hin an-lhai aneiyun ahinlah a-ihdoh pouvin ahi. Hijeh achu hiche gancha hohi nangho dinga atheng lou ahi.

8 and the swine, for it hath cloven hoofs, yet cheweth not the cud — it shall be unclean unto you. Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch.

Chule vohcha jong naneh lou diu ahi. Anlhai aneiyin hinlah a-ihdoh poi, hijeh achu nangho dia atheng lou ahiye. Hiche gancha hose hi neh jong naneh thei lou diu chule tohjong natoh khah lou diu ahi.

9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales shall ye eat;

Twikhanglen'a cheng ganhing lah a, aling nei naneh thei diu ahi.

10 but whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye shall not eat: it shall be unclean unto you.

Hijeh chun twikhanglen'a um alingnei naneh diu, hinlah aling nei lou kitiphot vang naneh lou diu ahi. Ajeh chu hichengse hi nangho dia atheng lou ahi.

11 All clean birds shall ye eat.

Chule nanghon chungleng vacha namkim naneh thei diu ahi.

12 But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle,

Hinlah vacha hichengse hi naneh thei lou diu ahi: muthang chule mubong naneh lou diu,

13 and the falcon, and the kite, and the black kite after its kind;

chule Muvom, muthi, sumbupi,

14 and every raven after its kind;

va-ah leh ama tobang va dang jouse,

15 and the female ostrich, and the male ostrich, and the sea-gull, and the hawk after its kind;

muthi, muthi-muhchom, chule adang phabep jaona,

16 the owl, and the ibis and the swan,

sumbupi nou, sumbupi len, sumbu changlit,

17 and the pelican, and the carrion vulture, and the gannet,

muthibong, sumbu changlit, sumbupi, Egypt mite muthi,

18 and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.

bah chule adang phabep jaona naneh lou diu ahi.

19 And every winged crawling thing shall be unclean unto you; they shall not be eaten.

Tollham a ganhing vahle jouse hi naneh lou diu ahi, ajeh chu atheng lou ahi.

20 All clean fowls shall ye eat.

Hinlah vacha lhanei atheng kitiphot chu naneh diu ahi.

21 Ye shall eat of no carcase; thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is within thy gates, that he may eat it, or sell it unto a foreigner; for thou art a holy people to Jehovah thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in its mother's milk.

Ganthikam kiti naneh louhel diu ahi. Nakhopi sunguva kholjin miho naneh sah thei diu ahilouleh na hetkhah lou mikoma najoh thei diu ahi. Amavang nanghon naneh thei louhel diu ahi. Ajeh chu Pakai, na Pathen diuva atheng nahiuve. Chule nanghon kelchanou chu kelchapi noituiya nahon lou diu ahi.

22 Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, the produce of the field, year by year.

Gasoh lah a somakhat ding nakoi doh diu gasoh jouse lah a, somakhat kumseh le na katdoh diu ahi.

23 And thou shalt eat before Jehovah thy God, in the place which he will choose to cause his name to dwell there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear Jehovah thy God continually.

Hiche somakhat chu Pathen houna muna nahin choi diu Pakai, Pathen in amin dopsang nadinga alhenna muna chu nahin choi diu, hichu Pakai angsunga naneh diu ahi.

24 And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it, because the place is too far from thee, which Jehovah thy God will choose to set his name there, when Jehovah thy God blesseth thee;

Pakai, na Pathen uvin phatthei nahin boh tenguleh mun gam lha tah hijongleh lousohga tamtah nalo diu, chuteng hoilai muna kon hijongleh somakhat nahin choi diu ahi.

25 then shalt thou give it for money, and bind the money together in thy hand, and go to the place which Jehovah thy God will choose,

Amun chu agamlhat behseh a ahileh, hiche gasoh chu najoh diu najohna manu vang chu Pakai, na Pathen'u houna muna chu nalhut diu ahi.

26 and thou shalt give the money for whatever thy soul desireth, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever thy soul asketh of thee; and thou shalt eat there before Jehovah thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou, and thy house.

Nahung lhun tenguleh, nanghon nadeichan nasumuva nakichoh diu bongchal, kelngoi, kelcha, lengpitwi chule adang donthei nachoh jeng theiyu ahi. Chuteng nangho leh nainsung mi teuvin Pakai ansunga an-najon khom diu ahi.

27 And thou shalt not forsake the Levite that is within thy gates; for he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee.

Chule nalah uva Levi mite nahebol jing diu ahi. Ajeh chu amaho chenna ding nei louva um ahiuve.

28 At the end of three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates;

Kumthum lhinsih leh somakhat achombeh a nahin choi diu, hichu khopi toh kinaichaa nakhol khom diu,

29 and the Levite — for he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee — and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou doest.

hichu Levi mite napeh diu ahi. Ajeh chu amaho gam nei louva khosa ahiuvin, hichu amahon aneh uva lungkim sela umdiu ahit. Chutile Pakai, na Pathen uvin phatthei naboh diu ahi.
