Leviticus 20
1 Yahweh also said this to Moses/me:
BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
2 “Tell the Israeli people, ‘[This is what Yahweh says]: Any Israeli or any foreigner who is living in Israel who sacrifices any of his children to be an offering to the god Molech must be executed. The people of the town must kill him by throwing stones at him.
“Israel ca rhoek taengah thui pah. Israel ca rhoek neh Israel taengah aka bakuep yinlai khui lamkah hlang khat khat loh a tiingan te Molek taengah a paek atah vang khuikah pilnam loh lungto neh dae uh saeh lamtah duek rhoela duek saeh.
3 I will reject [IDM] such people and command that they no longer be allowed to associate with my people.
Tekah hlang te kai loh ka hmai ka khueh thil ni. A tiingan te Molek taengla a paek tih ka rhokso te a poeih phoeiah ka ming cim te a thae sak dongah a pilnam khui lamkah ka khoe ni.
4 If the people of that man’s town ignore it when he kills one of his children to offer him as a sacrifice to Molech, and if they do not execute that person,
Tedae Molek taengah a tiingan aka pae hlang te khohmuen pilnam loh a mik a him a him thil uh tih a duek sak uh pawt atah,
5 I myself will punish that person and his family, and I will command that he no longer be able to associate with my people. And I will do the same thing to any others who do the same thing that he did to worship Molech.
tekah hlang neh a huiko te kai loh ka hmai ka khueh thil van vetih anih neh anih taengkah aka cuk aka halh boeih khaw, Molek taengah aka cuk aka halh khaw a pilnam khui lamkah ka khoe ni.
6 ‘will reject [IDM] those who go to those who (consult/talk with) the spirits of dead people and fortune-tellers to seek advice from them. I will command that they no longer be allowed to associate with my people.
Rhaitonghma neh hnam hnukah cukhalh ham aka mael hinglu te khaw ka hmai ka khueh thil bal ni. Tekah hlanghing te a pilnam khui lamkah ka khoe ni.
7 ‘Set yourselves apart and be holy, because I, Yahweh your God, am holy, [and I want you to be like me].
Kai tah na BOEIPA Pathen la ka om dongah nangmih khaw ciim uh lamtah a cim la om uh.
8 Obey carefully [DOU] all my laws. I am Yahweh, the one will cause you to be holy.
Kai kah khosing he ngaithuen uh lamtah vai uh. Kai tah nangmih aka ciim BOEIPA ni.
9 ‘If anyone curses his father or his mother, he must be executed. He himself will be responsible for his own death [MTY].
Hlang khuikah hlang loh a manu neh a napa te a tap atah duek rhoe duek saeh. A manu a napa a tap dongah amah thii te amah pum ah tla saeh.
10 ‘If a man commits adultery with some other man’s wife, both of them, the man and the woman, must be executed.
Hlang yuu neh aka samphaih tih, a hui kah a yuu neh aka samphaih hlang te aka samphaih pa khaw aka samphaih nu khaw duek rhoe duek rhoi saeh.
11 ‘If a man has sex with [EUP] one of his father’s wives, he has disgraced his father. So both that man and that woman must be executed, they will be responsible for their own deaths [MTY].
Hlang te a napa yuu taengah yalh tih a napa kah a yah te a poelyoe pah atah amih rhoi te duek rhoe duek rhoi saeh lamtah a thii te amamih dongah om saeh.
12 ‘If a man has sex with [EUP] his daughter-in-law, both of them must be executed. What they have done is very perverse; and they will be responsible for their own deaths [MTY].
Hlang te a langa taengah a yalh atah amih rhoi te duek rhoe duek saeh. Amah thii te amah dongah pitpom ham a saii rhoi.
13 ‘If two men have sex together, they have done something detestable. They must both be executed, they will be responsible for their own deaths [MTY].
Huta thingkong bangla tongpa neh tongpa aka yalh te khaw tueilaehkoi ni. Amamih rhoi kah a saii vanbangla duek rhoe duek rhoi saeh lamtah a thii te amamih rhoi tlak thil saeh.
14 ‘If a man marries both a woman and her mother, that is a wicked thing. All three of them must be burned to death, in order that such a wicked practice will not [continue to be done] among you.
Tongpa pakhat loh huta neh a manu te rhen a loh te khaw khonuen rhamtat ni. Amih te hmai neh hoeh uh. Te daengah ni nangmih khui ah khonuen rhamtat a om pawt eh.
15 ‘If a man has sex with an animal, he must be executed, and you must also kill that animal.
Rhamsa taengah a tamtah aka khueh hlang te tah duek rhoe duek sak lamtah rhamsa te ngawn uh.
16 ‘[Similarly], if a woman has sex with an animal, both the woman and that animal must be killed [DOU]; they are responsible for their own deaths [MTY].
Rhamsa boeih te khaw amah taengah kui sak ham ni huta loh a paan atah huta te ngawn lamtah rhamsa khaw duek rhoe duek sak uh. A thii te amah pum dongah tla saeh.
17 ‘If a man marries his sister, the daughter of either his mother or his father, and they have sex together, that is disgraceful. They must not be allowed to continue to associate with my people. And because he has disgraced his sister, he must be punished.
A napa canu, a manu canu, amah ngannu aka lo tih a napa kah a yah aka so neh a manu kah a yah aka so hlang he khaw rhaidaeng. A pilnam boeina mikhmuh lamkah khoe saeh. A ngannu kah a yah a hli a phen dongah amah kah thaesainah te phuei saeh.
18 ‘If a man has sex with [EUP, DOU] a woman during her monthly menstrual period, they have both revealed why she was bleeding, so both of them must not be allowed to associate with my people any more.
Hlang pakhat loh pumthim aka tlo huta te a yalh puei atah anih kah a yah ni a hli a phen pah tih pumthim ni a tai pah. Huta amah long khaw a rhoi tih a thii pumthim te a tai dongah amih rhoi te pilnam khui lamkah khoe uh saeh.
19 ‘Do not have sex with the sister of either your father or your mother, because that would be disgracing someone who is a close relative. And you and the woman must both be punished.
Na nu kah a tanu neh na pa ngannu kah a yah khaw hliphen boeh. Te dongah amah saa aka yan tah amamih kah thaesainah te phuei uh saeh.
20 ‘If a man has sex [EUP] with his aunt, he has dishonored his uncle. I will punish both of them by causing them to die without having any children.
Hlang pakhat mai long ni a napi te a yalh puei atah a nupu kah a yah ni a hli a phen. Te dongah a tholh te phuei saeh lamtah cakol la duek saeh.
21 ‘If a man marries his brother’s wife [while his brother is still living], that is disgraceful. He has dishonored his brother; and they both will die without having any children.
U bang hlang long khaw a manuca kah a yuu aka rhawt pah tah rhalawt la om. A manuca kah a yah te a hliphen dongah cakol la duek saeh.
22 ‘Obey all my laws/decrees [DOU] carefully, in order that you will not be forced to leave [MET] the land to which I am bringing you.
Te dongah ka khosing te ngaithuen lamtah ka laitloeknah boeih te vai uh. Te daengah ni kai loh kam pha sak khohmuen loh nangmih te n'lok thil pawt vetih a khuiah te kho na sak uh eh.
23 Do not imitate/adopt the customs of the people of the land from which I will expel them as you advance. I hated them because they did all those things.
Namtom kah khosing bangla pongpa uh boeh. Te boeih te a saii uh tih amih te ka muei a puel dongah nangmih mikhmuh lamkah ka haek.
24 But I said to you, “You will take their land from them; I will give it to you to be yours, a land that is very fertile [IDM]. I am Yahweh your God, who has set you apart from the people of other nations.”
Tedae amih kah khohmuen te na pang ham, ‘Suktui neh khoitui aka long khohmuen pang ham khaw nangmih taengah kamah loh kam paek ni,’ tila nangmih taengah ka thui. Nangmih kah Pathen BOEIPA kamah long ni pilnam khui lamkah nangmih kan hoep.
25 ‘So you must distinguish between birds and animals that are unacceptable to me and those that are acceptable to me. Do not defile yourselves by [eating] birds or animals, or anything that scurries across the ground, that I have said are unacceptable for you.
Te dongah rhamsa aka cuem te rhalawt khui lamloh, vaa rhalawt te khaw a cuem lamloh hoep uh. Na hinglu te rhamsa nen khaw, vaa nen khaw, diklai kah aka colh boeih nen khaw rhun uh boeh. Te tah nangmih ham aka poeih uh lam ni ka hoep.
26 You must behave in ways that I consider to be holy, because I, Yahweh, am holy, and I have set you apart from the [ungodly people of other] nations to belong to me.
BOEIPA kamah ka cim dongah kai taengah a cim la om uh. Kamah taengah om sak ham ni pilnam rhoek khui lamkah nangmih te kan hoep.
27 ‘You must execute any man or woman among you who (consults/talks with) the spirits of dead people or who is a fortune-teller. Kill them by [throwing] stones at them; but they will be responsible for their own deaths.’”
Te dongah tongpa khaw huta khaw, rhaitonghma neh hnam te a om atah duek rhoe duek saeh. Amih te lungto neh dae uh saeh lamtah a thii te amamih dongah tla saeh,” a ti nah.
