Deuteronomy 16

1 Observe the month of Abib, and keep the Passover to the LORD your God; for in the month of Abib the LORD your God brought you out of Egypt by night.

Na Angraeng Sithaw mah Abib khrah, aqum ah nangcae Izip prae hoi ang loih o sak pongah, Abib khrah to zaa oh; na Angraeng Sithaw han misong loihhaih niah patoh oh.

2 You shall sacrifice the Passover to the LORD your God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which the LORD shall choose to cause his name to dwell there.

Angraeng mah angmah ih ahmin oh hanah, qoih ih ahmuen ah, misong loih angbawnhaih moi to na Angraeng Sithaw khaeah paek oh.

3 You shall eat no leavened bread with it. You shall eat unleavened bread with it seven days, even the bread of affliction (for you came out of the land of Egypt in haste) that you may remember the day when you came out of the land of Egypt all the days of your life.

Tawt kak hoiah Izip prae to na tacawt o taak pongah, hing thung Izip prae tacawttaakhaih atue to na panoek o poe hanah, ni sarihto thung taeh thuh ai ih takaw to caa oh; taeh thuh ih takaw to caa o hmah.

4 No yeast shall be seen with you in all your borders seven days; neither shall any of the meat, which you sacrifice the first day at evening, remain all night until the morning.

Ni sarihto thung na prae thung boih ah, taeh thuh ih takaw to caa o hmah; ni hmaloe koek duembang ah na paek o ih moi to, khawnbang khoek to amtlai o sak hmah.

5 You may not sacrifice the Passover within any of your gates which the LORD your God gives you;

Na Angraeng Sithaw mah paek ih vangpui boih ah, misong loih angbawnhaih to sah o hmah;

6 but at the place which the LORD your God shall choose to cause his name to dwell in, there you shall sacrifice the Passover at evening, at the going down of the sun, at the season that you came out of Egypt.

na Angraeng Sithaw mah angmah ih ahmin oh hanah, qoih ih ahmuen khue ah, duembang ah misong loih angbawnhaih to sah oh; na tacawt o taak ih Izip prae to panoek poe hanah, niduem naah sah oh.

7 You shall roast and eat it in the place which the LORD your God chooses. In the morning you shall return to your tents.

Na Angraeng Sithaw mah qoih ih ahmuen ah hmai hoi pahai o ah loe, caa oh; khawnbang ah amlaem o ah loe, na oh o haih im ah caeh oh.

8 Six days you shall eat unleavened bread. On the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to the LORD your God. You shall do no work.

Ni tarukto thung taeh thuh ai ih takaw to caa oh, ni sarihto naah loe, na Angraeng Sithaw khaeah amkhueng oh, tok to sah o hmah.

9 You shall count for yourselves seven weeks. From the time you begin to put the sickle to the standing grain you shall begin to count seven weeks.

Cang aah amtong tangsuek nathuem hoi ni sarihto thung kroek oh.

10 You shall keep the feast of weeks to the LORD your God with a tribute of a free will offering of your hand, which you shall give according to how the LORD your God blesses you.

Na Angraeng Sithaw mah tahamhoihaih paek ih baktih toengah, na Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah na koeh zetto angbawnhaih poih to ni sarihto thung patoh oh.

11 You shall rejoice before the LORD your God: you, your son, your daughter, your male servant, your female servant, the Levite who is within your gates, the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow who are amongst you, in the place which the LORD your God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there.

To naah na Angraeng Sithaw mah angmah ih ahmin oh hanah, qoih ih ahmuen ah nangmah hoi na canu na capanawk, na tamna nongpa hoi nongpatanawk, na vangpui thungah kaom Levinawk, angvinnawk, na qahhnawk, nangcae salakah kaom lamhmainawk hoi nawnto, na Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah anghoe oh.

12 You shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt. You shall observe and do these statutes.

Izip prae ah misong ah ka oh, tiah panoek oh, hae zaehhoihaih daannawk hae pazui oh loe, sah ah.

13 You shall keep the feast of booths seven days, after you have gathered in from your threshing floor and from your wine press.

Cang aah pacoeng moe, misurtui na pasawh o pacoengah, ni sarihto thung kahni im poih to sah oh.

14 You shall rejoice in your feast, you, your son, your daughter, your male servant, your female servant, the Levite, the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow who are within your gates.

Poih kungah, nangmah hoi na canu, na capanawk, na tamna nongpa hoi nongpatanawk, Levi kaminawk, angvinnawk, na vangpui thungah kaom, ampa tawn ai kaminawk, lamhmainawk hoi nawnto anghoe oh.

15 You shall keep a feast to the LORD your God seven days in the place which the LORD chooses, because the LORD your God will bless you in all your increase and in all the work of your hands, and you shall be altogether joyful.

Angraeng mah qoih ih ahmuen ah, ni sarihto thung na Angraeng Sithaw hanah poih to sah oh; to tiah na sak o nahaeloe, na Angraeng Sithaw mah na aah o ih cangnawk hoi na sak o ih hmuennawk boih pongah, tahamhoihaih na paek o tih; to naah nangcae loe anghoehaih hoiah na koep o tih boeh.

16 Three times in a year all of your males shall appear before the LORD your God in the place which he chooses: in the feast of unleavened bread, in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of booths. They shall not appear before the LORD empty.

Nongpanawk boih loe Angraeng angmah qoih ih ahmuen ah, na Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah saningto naah taeh thuh ai ih poih vai thumto sakhaih, ni sarihto thung sak ih poih hoi kahni im poihsakhaih ahmuen ah angzoh o han oh; mi kawbaktih doeh Angraeng hmaa ah bangkrai ah angzoh o han om ai.

17 Every man shall give as he is able, according to the LORD your God’s blessing which he has given you.

Na Angraeng Sithaw mah tahamhoihaih ang paek o ih baktih toengah, kami boih mah a sin o thai tawk hmuen to a sin o han oh.

18 You shall make judges and officers in all your gates, which the LORD your God gives you, according to your tribes; and they shall judge the people with righteous judgement.

Na Angraeng Sithaw mah ang paek o ih vangpui kruekah, acaengnawk lokcaekkungnawk hoi ukkungnawk to suem oh, kaminawk to toenghaih hoiah uk oh.

19 You shall not pervert justice. You shall not show partiality. You shall not take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and perverts the words of the righteous.

Nang loe toenghaih loklam hoiah amkhraeng ving hmah; kami mikhmai doeh khen hmah loe, bokhaih tangqum doeh talawk hmah; bokhaih tangqum mah palungha kaminawk to mikmaengsak moe, katoeng kami ih lok to angkoisak.

20 You shall follow that which is altogether just, that you may live and inherit the land which the LORD your God gives you.

Toenghaih khue to pazui oh; to tiah nahaeloe na hing o ueloe, Angraeng Sithaw mah paek ih prae to na toep o tih.

21 You shall not plant for yourselves an Asherah of any kind of tree beside the LORD your God’s altar, which you shall make for yourselves.

Na Angraeng Sithaw han na sak o ih hmaicam taengah kawbaktih Asherah tung doeh thling o hmah.

22 Neither shall you set yourself up a sacred stone which the LORD your God hates.

Na Angraeng Sithaw mah hnukma ih kawbaktih krang doeh thling o hmah.
