< Leviticus 27 >

1 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
BOEPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
2 “Tell the Israeli people [that this is what I am saying to them]: If anyone solemnly promises to dedicate another person to [work solely] for me, the person who is dedicated to me is allowed to be free from having to do that by someone paying [to the priest] a fixed amount of money. The money that is given must be calculated by comparing it with the official pieces of silver in the Sacred Tent.
“Israel ca rhoek te voek lamtah thui pah. Hlang khat khat loh na hinglu phu neh BOEIPA taengah olcaeng a rhaisang sak atah,
3 [These are the amounts that must be paid]: 50 pieces of silver for men who are between 20 and 60 years old,
na phu te tongpa kum kul ca lamkah kum sawmrhuk ca rhoek te tah hmuencim kah shekel ah tangka shekel sawmnga te na phu la om saeh.
4 30 pieces of silver for adult women [who are between 20 and 60 years old],
Tedae anih te huta la a om atah shekel sawmthum na phu la om saeh.
5 20 pieces of silver for young men who are between five and 20 years old, ten pieces of silver for young women who are between five and 20 years old,
Te vaengah kum nga ca lamkah kum kul ca te tah tongpa ham shekel pakul neh huta ham shekel parha te na phu la om saeh.
6 five pieces of silver for boys who are between one month and five years old, three pieces of silver for girls who are between one month and five years old,
Tedae hla khat ca lamkah kum nga ca te tah tongpa ham tangka shekel panga te na phu la om saeh lamtah huta ham tangka shekel pathum te na phu la om saeh.
7 15 pieces of silver for men who are more than 60 years old, ten pieces of silver for women who are more than 60 years old.
Kum sawmrhuk ca lamkah a so te tah tongpa te shekel hlai nga te, na phu la om saeh lamtah huta ham shekel parha om saeh.
8 ‘If anyone who has made such a solemn promise is very poor and unable to pay, to free that person from doing what he had promised, he must take that person to the priest. The priest will set the price [for freeing him] to be what the person who made that solemn promise is able to pay.
Na phu te a daeng bal oeh atah amah te khaw khosoih kah mikhmuh ah pai saeh lamtah khosoih loh a phu tloek pah saeh. Aka caeng kut loh a na tarhing ah khosoih loh rhan pah saeh.
9 ‘If someone solemnly promises to give an animal that is acceptable to be an offering to me, that animal becomes sacred [and belongs to me].
Rhamsa te BOEIPA taengkah nawnnah ham a nawn uh bal atah BOEIPA taengah a paek boeih te tah a cimcaih la om saeh.
10 The person who promised to give it must not give another animal instead of the one that he promised; he must not substitute a bad animal for a good one or even a better one than the one offered. If he would substitute one animal for the other, both animals would belong to me.
A thae te a then neh, a then te a thae neh thung khaw thung boel saeh, tho khaw tho boel saeh. Rhamsa te rhamsa neh a tho la a tho atah rhamsa aka om neh a hnothung te khaw a cimcaih la om saeh.
11 If the animal that he wishes to dedicate to me is a kind that is unacceptable to be an offering to me, he must take that animal to the priest.
Tedae rhalawt rhamsa boeih tah BOEIPA taengkah nawnnah ham khuen uh boel saeh. Tedae rhamsa te khosoih kah mikhmuh ah tloeng saeh.
12 The priest will then decide what its value is, according to the animal’s good and bad points. Whatever value the priests sets will be the value of the animal, [and that is the price that the priest must pay for the animal].
Te vaengah a thae a then khaw anih te khosoih loh a phu tloek saeh lamtah khosoih kah a tloek te na phu la om saeh.
13 If the man who gave the animal later decides that he wants to buy it back, he must pay [to the priest] that price plus an additional 20 percent.
Tedae amah loh a tlan la a tlan atah na phu te panga neh thap van saeh.
14 ‘[Similarly], if someone dedicates his house to be a sacred gift to belong to me, the priest will decide how much it is worth, which will depend on whether the house is in good condition. Whatever the priest says that it is worth, that will be its value [and that is the price that the priest must pay for it].
Hlang pakhat mai long khaw a im te BOEIPA ham a cim la a ciim coeng atah a thae a then khaw khosoih loh a phu tloek saeh lamtah khosoih kah a phu a tloek vanbangla a phu khaw om van saeh.
15 If the man who dedicated his house to me later wants to buy it back, he must pay that price plus an additional 20 percent, and then the house will belong to him again.
Tedae a im a ciim tangtae te a tlan atah a phu te tangka a pueh panga neh koep thap saeh lamtah amah hut la koep om saeh.
16 ‘If someone dedicates to me some of the property that belongs to him and his family, its value will be determined by the number of bushels of seed that will be needed to plant seeds on that land: Its value will be ten pieces of silver for each bushel of seed.
Hlang pakhat mai loh khohmuen khui lamkah amah khohut te BOEIPA ham a ciim atah a cangti a cuk tarhing la a phu om saeh lamtah cangtun tii hma at cuk te tangka shekel sawmnga neh ting van saeh.
17 If he dedicates the land during the Year of Celebration, its full value will be that amount.
Jubilee kum dongah a khohmuen te a ciim atah a phu te amah tarhing la om saeh.
18 But if he dedicates the field after the Year of Celebration, the priest will count the number of years until the next Year of Celebration, and if there are not many years that remain, the price will be much lower [than the full price].
Tedae a khohmuen te jubilee poengah a ciim atah jubilee kum duela aka sueng te khosoih loh tae saeh lamtah a kum tarhing kah tangka vanbangla a phu te hnop van saeh.
19 If the person who dedicated the field later wants to buy it back, he must pay [to the priest] the price that the priest says it is worth, plus an added one-fifth, and then the field will belong to that man again.
A hoep mueh tangtae khohmuen te koep a tlan la a tlan atah khohmuen phu tangka te a pueh panga neh koep thap thil saeh lamtah amah hut la koep om saeh.
20 However, if he does not buy it back, or if it has been sold (OR, the priest has sold it) to someone else, that person will never be permitted to buy it back again.
Tedae khohmuen te tlan pawt tih hlang taengla patoeng a yoih coeng atah khohmuen te koep tlan voel boel saeh.
21 In the Year of Celebration, it will become sacred again, and it will be given to the priest.
Jubilee a poeng vaengah khohmuen loh BOEIPA taengah a cim la a om pueng atah khohmuen bangla yaehtaboeihla aka om te tah khosoih kah khohut la om saeh.
22 ‘If someone dedicates to me some land that he has bought, land which is not part of the land that his family has always owned,
Amah kah khohut khohmuen pawt dae a kho lai te BOEIPA ham a ciim atah,
23 the priest will count the number of years until the next Year of Celebration to determine how much it is worth, and the man must pay that amount to the priest on that day, [and then that land will belong to that man again].
Jubilee kum a pha duela a phu yet te khosoih loh tae saeh lamtah BOEIPA ham a cimcaih sak khohnin van vaengah a phu te pae saeh.
24 But in the Year of Celebration, the land will again be owned by the person from whom he bought it, the person whose family had always owned that land.
Jubilee kum vaengah tah khohmuen a lai vaengkah a kungmah taengah amah kah khohmuen khohut vanbangla bal saeh.
25 All the silver that is paid must be compared with the official pieces of silver in the Sacred Tent.
Na phu boeih boeih hmuencim kah shekel neh tae la om vetih gerah pakul ah shekel pakhat la om saeh.
26 ‘No one is permitted to dedicate to me the firstborn of any cow or sheep, because the firstborn already belongs to me [DOU].
Rhamsa khuikah a cacuek boeih he BOEIPA kah caming omthang la a om dongah vaito mai khaw tu mai khaw BOEIPA hut tangtae te tah hlang long he ciim boel saeh.
27 If someone gives to me a kind of animal that is not acceptable to me, that person may later buy it back by paying what it is worth plus an additional 20 percent of its value. If he does not buy it back, it must be sold (OR, the priest must sell it) for its standard price.
Tedae rhalawt rhamsa mai khaw namah kah phu bangla a lat mai ni. Tedae te te a panga neh thap saeh. A tlan pawt daengah ni namah ka a phu bangla a yoih eh.
28 ‘However, no slave or animal or family land that someone owns can be sold or bought back after it has been dedicated to me [and no price has been paid for it]. That kind of gift belongs to me permanently/forever.
Tedae hlang loh a khueh khui boeih lamkah hlang khaw, rhamsa khaw, amah kah khohut khohmuen khaw BOEIPA ham a ha tangtae, yaehtaboeih la aka om khat khat te tah yoi boel saeh. BOEIPA ham aka cim tih a cim tangkik yaehtaboeih la aka om boeih te tah tlan boel saeh.
29 ‘No person who has [done something that I consider to be very wicked] is permitted to be freed [from being punished]; that person must surely be executed.
Hlang pataeng yaehtaboeih la a ha boeih te tah lat boel saeh lamtah duek rhoe duek sak saeh.
30 ‘One tenth of all the crops and grain or fruit that is produced on anyone’s land is sacred and belongs to me.
Khohmuen cangtii khaw, diklai thing thaih khaw parha pakhat boeih BOEIPA hut la om tih BOEIPA ham cimcaih bal.
31 If anyone wants to buy back any of that tenth, he must pay [to the priest] what it is worth plus an additional 20 percent.
Te dongah hlang khat khat mai loh amah kah parha pakhat te a tlan la a tlan atah amah kah panga neh thap thil saeh.
32 One of every ten domestic animals belongs to me. When a shepherd counts his animals [MTY] [to decide which ones he will give to me], he must mark every tenth one as belonging to me.
Saelhung khaw, boiva khaw mancai hmuikah aka luem boeih kah parha pakhat boeih te BOEIPA kah a cim parha pakhat la om saeh.
33 When he does that, he must not pick out the good ones for himself or leave the bad ones, or substitute bad ones for good ones. If he substitutes one animal for another, both animals will belong to me, and he will not be permitted to buy them back (OR, the shepherd cannot buy them back).’”
A thae a then khaw hnukdawn boel saeh lamtah thovael boel saeh. A tho la a tho atah aka om tangtae neh a hnothung te a cim la rhen om coeng tih tlan thai mahpawh,” a ti nah.
34 Those are the commands that Yahweh gave to Moses/me on Sinai Mountain [to tell to the people].
Tahae kah olpaek rhoek he Israel ca rhoek ham Sinai tlang ah BOEIPA loh Moses a uen.
