< Deuteronomy 10 >

1 “Then Yahweh said to me, ‘Cut two stone tablets like the first ones. And make a wooden chest to put them in. Then [bring the tablets] up to me on this mountain.
Te vaeng tue ah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Lungto te lamhma kah lungpael rhoi bangla namah loh saek lamtah tlang ah kai taengla ha yoeng. Te phoeiah thing thingkawng khaw namah loh saii bal.
2 I will write on those tablets the same words that I wrote on the first tablets, the ones that you broke. Then you can put them in the chest.’
Lamhma kah vik na dae lungpael rhoi dongkah aka om olka te tahae kah lungpael rhoi dongah koep ka daek saeh lamtah thingkawng khuiah khueh,” a ti.
3 “So I made a chest. I used wood from an acacia tree to make it. Then I cut two tablets of stone like the first ones, and I went up the mountain carrying the tablets.
Te dongah rhining thing te thingkawng la ka saii tih lungto panit te lamhma kah cabael bangla ka saek. Te phoeiah kut dongkah cabael rhoi neh tlang la ka luei.
4 There Yahweh wrote on the tablets the [same] Ten Commandments [that he had written on the first tablet]. They are the commandments that he told to your ancestors from the middle of the fire on the mountain, when they were gathered [at the bottom of the mountain]. Then Yahweh gave the tablets to me,
Te daengah ni hlangping hnin kah tlang ah BOEIPA loh nangmih ham hmai khui lamkah a thui olka lungrha te lungpael dongah lamhma kah cadaek bangla a daek tih BOEIPA amah loh kai m'paek pueng.
5 and I turned and went down the mountain. Then, just as he had commanded, I put them in the chest that I had made. And they are still there.”
Te dongah tlang lamkah ka mael tih ka suntlak vaengah lungpael rhoi te BOEIPA loh kai n'uen vanbangla ka saii thingkawng khuiah ka khueh tih om van.
6 (Then, from the wells that belonged to the people of Jaakan, the Israeli people traveled to Moserah. There Aaron died and was buried, and his son Eleazar took his place and became the Supreme Priest.
Israel ca rhoek loh Beeroth-Bene-jaakan lamkah Moserah la a caeh uh vaengah Aaron duek tih pahoi a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Eleazar te anih yueng la khosoih.
7 From there, the Israelis traveled to Gudgodah, and from there to Jotbathah, which was a place that had many streams.
Te lamkah te Gudgodah la cet uh tih Gudgodah lamloh Jobathah kho kah soklong tui la cet uh.
8 At that time, Yahweh (set apart/appointed) the tribe of Levi to carry the chest that contained [the tablets on which were written] the Ten Commandments, and to stand in Yahweh’s presence [in the sacred tent], to offer sacrifices, and to pray for Yahweh to bless [the people. They are still doing those things] at the present time.
Te vaeng hnin ah Levi koca rhoek tah, BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng aka kawt ham, a bibi la BOEIPA mikhmuh ah aka pai ham tihnin duela a ming neh yoethen paek ham khaw BOEIPA loh a hoep.
9 That is the reason that the tribe of Levi did not receive any land like the other tribes did. What they received was the work/privilege of being Yahweh’s [priests], which is what he said that they should do.)
Te dongah Levi kah khoyo neh a manuca rhoek taengkah rho he rhawp om pawh. BOEIPA na Pathen kah a thui bangla BOEIPA amah ni anih kah rho la aka om coeng.
10 “I stayed on the mountain 40 days and nights, just like I did the first time. [I prayed to] Yahweh, and he (answered my prayers/did what I requested) again and said that he would not destroy your ancestors.
Kai ngawn tah hnuk vaengkah bangla tlang ah khohnin likip khoyin khothaih sut ka om. Tekah khohnin ah khaw BOEIPA loh ka ol a hnatun bal dongah ni nang phae ham te BOEIPA loh a huem pawh.
11 Then Yahweh said to me, ‘Continue your journey, going in front of the people, to occupy the land that I vowed your ancestors that I would give to you.’”
Te dongah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Thoo, longpueng ah khaw pilnam kah a hmai la na caeh pah daengah ni amih taengah paek hamla, a napa rhoek taengah ka caeng khohmuen te kun uh vetih a pang uh eh,” a ti.
12 “Now, you Israeli people, [I will tell you] [RHQ] what Yahweh our God requires/demands that you do. He requires you to revere him, to conduct your lives as he wants you to, to love him, and to serve him wholeheartedly [DOU],
Tahae ah Israel nang, BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang taeng lamkah balae ham bih? Tedae BOEIPA na Pathen te rhih ham neh, a longpuei boeih dongah pongpa ham, amah lungnah ham neh BOEIPA na Pathen te na thinko boeih, na hinglu boeih neh thothueng ham,
13 and to obey all of his commandments [DOU] which I am giving to you today for your benefit.
BOEIPA kah olpaek neh a khosing tah ngaithuen ham ah om. Te te namah kah a then ham ni tihnin ah kai loh nang kang uen.
14 “Do not forget that Yahweh our God owns even the sky and everything that is in it. He also owns the earth and everything that is on it.
Vaan neh vaan kah vaan boeih khaw, diklai neh a khuiah aka om boeih khaw, BOEIPA na Pathen ham ni ke.
15 But [in spite of owning all those things], Yahweh loved your ancestors, and from all the people-groups [on the earth] he chose us, their descendants, and we are still his people.
Na pa rhoek te BOEIPA loh a ven tih, a lungnah dongah ni amih hnukkah a tiingan la, nangmih te pilnam cungkuem soah tihnin kah bangla n'coelh.
16 So you must stop sinning [MET] and stop being stubborn [IDM]!
Te dongah na thinko yahhmui te rhet uh lamtah na rhawn khaw mangkhak sak uh voel boeh.
17 Yahweh our God is greater than all gods, and he is greater than all rulers. He is very powerful [DOU] and awesome. He (is impartial/does not do things that favor one (group/person) more than others), and he does not accept bribes.
BOEIPA na Pathen tah pathen boeih kah Pathen, boei boeih kah Boeipa, hlangrhalh Pathen puei la om tih a rhih a om dongah hlang maelhmai khaw dan pawt tih kapbaih khaw doe bal pawh.
18 He makes sure that orphans and widows are treated fairly. He loves even (foreigners/people from other countries) who live among us Israeli people, and he gives them food and clothes.
Cadah nuhmai kah laitloeknah te a rhuun tih yinlai te buh neh himbai paek ham a lungnah.
19 So you must love those foreigners too, because you were once foreigners when you were living in Egypt.
Egypt kho ah yinlai la na om uh dongah yinlai te lungnah uh van.
20 Revere Yahweh our God and worship only him. (Be faithful to/Have a close relationship with) him, and say that he should punish you if you do not do what you promise.
BOEIPA na Pathen amah te rhih lamtah thothueng lah. Amah taengah pangnal lamtah a ming neh toemngam lah.
21 He is the one whom you must praise. He is our God, and we have seen the great and amazing things that he has done for us.
Anih tah na koehnah neh na Pathen la om. Amah loh nang ham hno len a saii dongah a rhih om la na mik loh a hmuh.
22 When our ancestors, [Jacob and his family], went down to Egypt, there were only seventy of them. But now Yahweh our God has caused us to be as numerous as the stars in the sky.”
Na pa rhoek te hinglu sawmrhih ni Egypt la aka suntla. Tedae tahae ah BOEIPA na Pathen loh vaan aisi yet la nang n'khueh.
