Leviticus 18
1 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Moses te BOEIPA loh a voek tih,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, I am the LORD your God.
“Israel ca rhoek te voek lamtah thui pah. Kai tah BOEIPA na Pathen ni.
3 After the doings of the land of Egypt, in which ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, where I bring you, shall ye not do: neither shall ye walk in their ordinances.
Egypt kho ah na om uh vaengkah bibi bangla saii uh boeh. Te phoeiah kai loh nangmih kam pha sak Kanaan kho kah khoboe bangla om uh boel lamtah amih kah khosing te awt uh boeh.
4 Ye shall perform my judgments, and keep my ordinances, to walk in them: I am the LORD your God.
Kai kah laitloeknah he ngai uh lamtah ka khosing te vai ham ngaithuen uh. Kai tah nangmih kah Pathen Yahweh ni.
5 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a man doeth, he shall live in them: I am the LORD.
Te dongah kai kah khosing aka ngaithuen tih ka laitloeknah aka ngai hlang te tah tekah khosing dongah hing van ni. Kai tah BOEIPA ni.
6 None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness: I am the LORD.
Hlang la aka om hlang long tah amah kah a pum a saa boeih te ayah hliphen ham paan boel saeh. Kai tah BOEIPA ni.
7 The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
Na pa kah a yah khaw, na nu kah a yah khaw, na manu khaw hliphen boeh. A yah khaw hliphen pah boeh.
8 The nakedness of thy father’s wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father’s nakedness.
Na pa yuu kah a yah, na pa kah a yah te hliphen pah boeh.
9 The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy mother, whether born at home, or born abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.
Na ngannu, na pa kah a ngannu, na nu kah a tanu kah a yah khaw, im kah pacaboeina neh kholong kah pacaboeina yah khaw hliphen boeh.
10 The nakedness of thy son’s daughter, or of thy daughter’s daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs is thy own nakedness.
Na capa canu neh na canu canu kah a yah khaw namah kah a yah la a om boeiloeih dongah amih kah a yah te hliphen boeh.
11 The nakedness of thy father’s wife’s daughter, begotten by thy father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
Na pa yuu canu kah a yah khaw, na pa kah pacaboeina, na ngannu kah a yah khaw hliphen boeh.
12 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s sister: she is thy father’s near kinswoman.
Na pa ngannu kah, na pa huiko kah a yah khaw hliphen pah boeh.
13 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister: for she is thy mother’s near kinswoman.
Na nu kah a tanu, na nu huiko kah a yah khaw hliphen pah boeh.
14 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she is thy aunt.
Na pa manuca kah a yah khaw hliphen boeh. Anih yuu neh na pi khaw paan pah boeh.
15 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: she is thy son’s wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
Na langa kah a yah te hliphen pah boeh. Na ca yuu kah a yah khaw hliphen pah boeh.
16 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother’s wife: it is thy brother’s nakedness.
Na manuca yuu kah a yah, na manuca kah a yah te hliphen pah boeh.
17 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, neither shalt thou take her son’s daughter, or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness; for they are her near kinswomen: it is wickedness.
Na yuu neh a canu, a capa canu neh a canu canu kah a yah te hliphen pah boeh. Na thii na saa kah a yah hliphen pah ham lo boeh. Te bang te khonuen rhamtat ni.
18 Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, to vex her, to uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her life time.
Na yuu amah a hing lalah a yah hliphen pah ham neh daengdaeh ham a tanu te lo boeh.
19 Also thou shalt not approach to a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.
Te phoeiah huta te a ti a hnai neh pumom tue vaengah a yah hliphen pah ham paan boeh.
20 Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour’s wife, to defile thyself with her.
Na imben kah a yuu aka poeih ham khaw na tamtah tii te khueh boeh.
21 And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.
Na tiingan te Molek taengah khumpael sak ham pae boeh. Te dongah na Pathen ming te poeih boeh. Kai tah BOEIPA ni.
22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
tongpa puei khaw huta thingkong bangla yalh puei boeh. Te ta tueilaehkoi ni.
23 Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself with it: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down with it: it is confusion.
Rhamsa khat khat neh aka poeih uh ham khaw na tamtah khueh boeh. Huta long khaw rhamsa neh pitpom tih, anih kui hamla duen boel saeh.
24 Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you:
He boeih nen he poeih uh boeh. Namtom rhoek khaw he boeih nen he a poeih uh dongah ni nangmih mikhmuh ah ka haek.
25 And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit its iniquity upon it, and the land itself spueth out her inhabitants.
Khohmuen pataeng a poeih uh dongah amah kathaesainah te ka cawh pah tih, khohmuen kah khosa rhoek khaw a lok thil.
26 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you:
Tedae nangmih loh ka khosing neh ka laitloeknah he ngaithuen uh. Te dongah te bang tueilaehkoi boeih te tolrhum mupoe long khaw, nangmih taengah aka bakuep yinlai long khaw saii boel saeh.
27 (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, who were before you, and the land is defiled; )
Nangmih mikhmuh kah tolrhum hlang rhoek loh he rhoek kah tueilaehkoi boeih he a saii uh dongah khohmuen khaw a poeih uh.
28 That the land may not spue you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you.
Te dongah nangmih mikhmuh kah namtom a tha bangla na khohmuen na poeih uh van tih nangmih khaw khohmuen loh n'tha boel saeh.
29 For whoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
U hlang khaw he rhoek kah tueilaehkoi hno khat khat a saii atah aka saii hlanghing boeih te pilnam lamkah hnawt saeh.
30 Therefore shall ye keep my ordinance, that ye commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile not yourselves in them: I am the LORD your God.
Te dongah nangmih mikhmuh kah tueilaehkoi khosing aka saii rhoek te vai pawt ham kamah loh ka kuek te ngaithuen uh. Te daengah ni amih taengah pum te na poeih uh pawt eh. Kai tah nangmih kah Pathen BOEIPA ni,” a ti nah.
