Deuteronomy 19

1 When Jehovah thy God hath cut off the nations whose land Jehovah thy God giveth thee, and thou hast dispossessed them, and dwellest in their cities and in their houses,

Pakai, Pathen in nangho napehnau gamsunga cheng mite ahin suhgam teng, nanghon agamsung pumpiu chuleh a in jouseu nalodiu akhopi uva nachen diu ahi.

2 thou shalt separate three cities for thyself in the midst of thy land, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee to possess.

Pakai, Pathen in napehnau gamsunga na chenlut tenguleh, nanghon hiche gamsung chu chenna dinga thum naso diu ahi.

3 Thou shalt prepare thee the way, and divide the territory of thy land, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee to inherit, into three parts, so that every slayer may flee thither.

Hitia chu Pakaiyin napehnau gamsung chu khopi thum naso diu, hiche khopi jousea chu lampi nasem lut cheh diu, nalah uva kona koi tobang mithat auma ahileh, amachu hiche sunga chu jamlut a kihuhdoh thei ding ahi.

4 And this is the case of the slayer who shall flee thither that he may live: he that smiteth his neighbour unwittingly, whom he hated not previously;

Mikhat touvin kidoupi beiya, khat chu amoh tha khah tah a ahileh, khopi khat pen pen achu jamlut a kihihuh hing thei ahi.

5 as when he goeth into the wood with his neighbour to hew wood, and his hand fetcheth a stroke with the axe to cut down the tree, and the iron slippeth from the handle, and lighteth upon his neighbour, that he die; such an one shall flee unto one of these cities, and live;

Tekah nan, mikhat chu asopipa toh gamlah lama thing phuh dinga akon doh’a thing aphuh laitah a aheicha lap chu aki khodoh a, asopipa chu akhokhah jeng tah’a ahileh, aheicha chun asopi chu akhokhah a thina atokhah’a ahileh, mithat khapa chu khopi thum holah a khat pen pena jamlut a ahinkho aki huhdoh ding ahi.

6 lest the avenger of blood pursue the manslayer, while his heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and smite him mortally; whereas he was not worthy of death, since he hated him not previously.

Chule kihuhdohna dinga khopi chu agamlhat behseh a ahileh, akahlah a phula thei khattouvin ahin delkhuma atha jeng thei ahi. Hinlah mithat khapa chun akidoupi hilouvin, khutsoi jeh a atha khah ahi.

7 Therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt separate three cities for thyself.

Hitobang akon kiven doh theina ding chun, keiman naheng uva khopi thum sem uvin kati ahi.

8 And if Jehovah thy God enlarge thy border, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers, and give thee all the land which he promised to give unto thy fathers

Pakai, Pathen in napului, napalui khang uva pat napehsau gamsung hi akehlet ding, agam sung hi aboncha napeh doh diu

9 (if thou keep all this commandment to do it, which I command thee this day, to love Jehovah thy God, and to walk in his ways continually), then shalt thou add three cities more for thyself to these three,

chuteng nanghon khopi thum nalhendoh bediu ahi. (Chingthei tah a kathupeh nangaiyuva Pakai, Pathen nangailut uva alampi nacheuva ahileh Aman hiche gam pumpi hi napeh diu ahi).

10 that innocent blood be not shed in the midst of thy land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance, and blood come not upon thee.

Hitia chu naboluva ahileh, Pakai, Pathen in napehnau hiche gam sunga hi mona beihela thina umlou ding ahi. Chuteng monabei ho thina jal'a mo nachan lou diu ahitai.

11 But if a man hate his neighbour, and lie in wait for him, and rise up against him, and smite him mortally that he die, and he flee into one of these cities,

Hinlah koitobang khat chun asopi ahot bola, chang lhih jinga aum a, adel khum jenga ahileh, hiche tolthatpa chu khopi ho lah a khat pena chu jamlut a kisel jeng thei ahi.

12 then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him thence, and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die.

Chuteng upa chensge chu kon uva mithat pachu khopi sunga aga hol doh diu, amahon aga mudoh diu amapa chu phulahna a ahin lhut diu, athina ding chan gotna apeh uva, thina achansah diu ahi.

13 Thine eye shall not spare him; and thou shalt put away innocent blood from Israel, that it may be well with thee.

Tolthatpa chunga chu lainatna ima nanei lou diu ahi! Hichu Israel mite lah a kona thisan sona chu nasuh bei diu; hichu nangho dinga aphalama pang ding joh ahi.

14 Thou shalt not remove thy neighbour's landmark, which they of old time have fixed in thine inheritance, which thou shalt inherit in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee to possess.

Pakai, Pathen in napehnau gam sung nalhu tenguleh nanei nagou hou, napu napateuva pat gamgi song kitung hochu khat jeng cha jong nabodoh lou diu ahi.

15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, and for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall a matter be established.

Themmona jouse lah a kona mikhat sehseh in themmo thu aseiya kona, adang khat chu themmo namoh chansah lou diu ahi. Hitobang chu hettohsah mini ham mithum ham ahiteng lebou themmo kichan sah bep ding ahi.

16 If an unrighteous witness rise up against any man to testify against him of an offence;

Midang khat chu muda man meimeiya kona adih louva bol jeng lou ding, hettohsah tothoa doumah a abolthei lou ding,

17 then both the men between whom the controversy is shall stand before Jehovah, before the priests and the judges that shall be in those days;

chule mini chu akidouva ahileh anigela Pakai angsung leh thempu ho masang leh thutan vaihom ho henga hung cheh ding ahi.

18 and the judges shall make thorough inquiry; and if the witness be a false witness, and he have testified falsely against his brother,

Chutengleh thutan vaihom hon achan chin thu chu giltah a akhol diu ahi. Hinlah jou leh nal thua Israel khattou ahehset a ahileh,

19 then shall ye do unto him as he had thought to have done unto his brother; and thou shalt put evil away from thy midst.

Hitobanga ahehsepa chu gotna peh chang ding ahi. Hitobang thil phalou chu nalah uva kona nasuh mangdiu ahi.

20 And those that remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such evil in thy midst.

Chuteng midang jousen ahin jah soh keiyuva, kichat nan alhun den diu, nangho jouse lah a thilse kiti him him abol kit tah lou diu ahi.

21 And thine eye shall not spare: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.

Hiche hotobang gitlouna ahin koima khoto hih un! Gotna chang dia dan chu, hinkho khela hinkho, mit khela mit, ha khela ha, khut khela khut chule kengphang khela kengphang lah ding ahi.
