Exodus 20
1 God spoke all these words, saying,
Hae loknawk boih Sithaw mah thuih;
2 “I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
kai loe misong ah na ohhaih, Izip prae thung hoi nangcae zaehoikung, Angraeng Sithaw ah ka oh.
3 “You shall have no other gods before me.
Ka hmaa ah Sithaw kalah tawn hmah.
4 “You shall not make for yourselves an idol, nor any image of anything that is in the heavens above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
Van ranui ah kaom krang maw, to tih ai boeh loe long tlim ah kaom krang maw, to tih ai boeh loe tui thungah kaom hmuen hoi kanghmong, kawbaktih krang doeh sah hmah;
5 you shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me,
nihcae hmaa ah akuep o hmah loe, bok o hmah; na Angraeng Sithaw, Kai loe ut panoek Sithaw ah ka oh moe, kai hnuma ampanawk ih zaehaih pongah, a caanawk adung thumto hoi palito karoek to thuitaekkung ah ka oh.
6 and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
Toe kai palung moe, ka thuih ih lok pazui kaminawk loe a caanawk ih adung sangto pong kapop adung khoek to amlunghaih patuekkung ah ka oh.
7 “You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who misuses his name.
Avang ai ah na Angraeng Sithaw ih ahmin to patoh hmah; anih ih ahmin tidoeh na ai ah patoh rumram kami loe, Angraeng mah anih to khen sut mak ai.
8 “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Sabbath ni to ciimsak hanah pakuem poe ah.
9 You shall labour six days, and do all your work,
Ni tarukto thung toksah ah, na tok to sah boih ah.
10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. You shall not do any work in it, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates;
Toe ni sarihto naah loe, na Angraeng Sithaw ih Sabbath niah oh; to niah loe tih tok doeh sah hmah; nangmah doeh, na capa doeh, na canu doeh, na tamna nongpa doeh, na tamna nongpata doeh, na tawnh ih moinawk hoi na khongkha thungah kaom angvin doeh toksak o han om ai;
11 for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day, and made it holy.
Angraeng mah ni tarukto thung van hoi long, tuipui hoi a thungah kaom hmuennawk boih to sak moe, ni sarihto naah loe anghak; to pongah Angraeng mah Sabbath ni to tahamhoihaih paek moe, ciimcaisak.
12 “Honour your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which the LORD your God gives you.
Nam no hoi nam pa khingya ah; to tih nahaeloe Angraeng Sithaw mah paek ih, prae thungah hinglung na sawk tih.
13 “You shall not murder.
Kami hum hmah.
14 “You shall not commit adultery.
Zu sava laep ah nongpa nongpata zaehaih sah hmah.
15 “You shall not steal.
Paqu hmah.
16 “You shall not give false testimony against your neighbour.
Na imtaeng kami nuiah amsawn hnukung ah angdoe hmah.
17 “You shall not covet your neighbour’s house. You shall not covet your neighbour’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbour’s.”
Na imtaeng kami ih im to khit hmah; na imtaeng kami ih zu to khit hmah, to tih ai boeh loe anih ih tamna nongpa, to tih ai boeh loe anih ih tamna nongpata, anih ih maitaw doeh, anih ih laa hrang doeh, na imtaeng kami ih kawbaktih hmuen doeh khit hmah, tiah lok a paek.
18 All the people perceived the thunderings, the lightnings, the sound of the shofar, and the mountain smoking. When the people saw it, they trembled, and stayed at a distance.
Khopazih tuen, tangphrapuekhaih hoi mongkah lok to kaminawk mah thaih o, mae thung hoi tacawt hmaikhue to a hnuk o naah, angnawn o moe, kangthla ah angdoet o.
19 They said to Moses, “Speak with us yourself, and we will listen; but don’t let God speak with us, lest we die.”
Mosi khaeah, Kaicae khae lok na thui ah, kang tahngaih pae o han; Sithaw mah kaicae khaeah lokthui hmah nasoe, ka dueh o moeng tih, tiah a naa o.
20 Moses said to the people, “Don’t be afraid, for God has come to test you, and that his fear may be before you, that you won’t sin.”
Mosi mah kaminawk khaeah, Zii o hmah; mikhmai ah anih zithaih na tawnh o moe, zaehaih na sak o han ai ah, nangcae tanoek han ih Sithaw angzoh tathuk boeh, tiah a naa.
21 The people stayed at a distance, and Moses came near to the thick darkness where God was.
Kaminawk loe kangthla ah angdoet o, toe Mosi loe Sithaw ohhaih kathah parai tamai kamnum ohhaih bangah a caeh.
22 The LORD said to Moses, “This is what you shall tell the children of Israel: ‘You yourselves have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
To naah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah, Israel kaminawk khaeah, Kai mah van hoiah kang thuih ih lok to na hnuk o boeh, tiah thui paeh, tiah a naa.
23 You shall most certainly not make gods of silver or gods of gold for yourselves to be alongside me.
Kai nang bok o naah, nangmacae hanah sui sithaw doeh, sum kanglung sithaw doeh sah o hmah.
24 You shall make an altar of earth for me, and shall sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your cattle. In every place where I record my name I will come to you and I will bless you.
Kai hanah long hoiah hmaicam mae to sah ah loe, to long hmaicam nuiah hmai angbawnhaih, angdaeh angbawnhaih to tuu hoi maitaw taenawk hoiah sah ah; kai ih ahmin pakoehhaih ahmuen kruekah, nang khaeah kang zoh moe, tahamhoihaih kang paek han.
25 If you make me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of cut stones; for if you lift up your tool on it, you have polluted it.
Kai hanah thlung hmaicam to na sak nahaeloe, thuk ih thlung kangphaek nuiah hmaicam to sah hmah; thlung kangphaek thukhaih sum to na phok tahang naah, hmaicam to nam hnongsak ah oh boeh.
26 You shall not go up by steps to my altar, that your nakedness may not be exposed to it.’
Bangkrai ah na ohhaih amtueng han ai ah, hmaicam ranui ah dawhhaih thlak to sah hmah, tiah a naa.
