Thothuengnah 20

1 BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 “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.

You shall also say to the children of Israel, If [there shall be] any of the children of Israel, or of those who have become proselytes in Israel, who shall give of his seed to Moloch, let him be surely put to death; the nation upon the land shall stone him with stones.

3 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.

And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from his people, because he has given of his seed to Moloch, to defile my sanctuary, and profane the name of them that are consecrated to me.

4 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,

And if the natives of the land should in anyway overlook that man in giving of his seed to Moloch, so as not to put him to death;

5 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.

then will I set my face against that man and his family, and I will destroy him, and all who have been of one mind with him, so that he should go a whoring to the princes, from their people.

6 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.

And the soul that shall follow those who have in them divining spirits, or enchanters, so as to go a whoring after them; I will set my face against that soul, and will destroy it from among its people.

7 Kai tah na BOEIPA Pathen la ka om dongah nangmih khaw ciim uh lamtah a cim la om uh.

And you shall be holy, for I the Lord your God [am] holy.

8 Kai kah khosing he ngaithuen uh lamtah vai uh. Kai tah nangmih aka ciim BOEIPA ni.

And you shall observe my ordinances, and do them: I [am] the Lord that sanctifies you.

9 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.

Every man who shall speak evil of his father or of his mother, let him die the death; has he spoken evil of his father or his mother? he shall be guilty.

10 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.

Whatever man shall commit adultery with the wife of a man, or whoever shall commit adultery with the wife of his neighbor, let them die the death, the adulterer and the adulteress.

11 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.

And if any one should lie with his father's wife, he has uncovered his father's nakedness: let them both die the death, they are guilty.

12 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.

And if any one should lie with his daughter-in-law, let them both be put to death; for they have wrought impiety, they are guilty.

13 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.

And whoever shall lie with a male as with a woman, they have both wrought abomination; let them die the death, they are guilty.

14 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.

Whosoever shall take a woman and her mother, it is iniquity: they shall burn him and them with fire; so there shall not be iniquity among you.

15 Rhamsa taengah a tamtah aka khueh hlang te tah duek rhoe duek sak lamtah rhamsa te ngawn uh.

And whoever shall lie with a beast, let him die the death; and you shall kill the beast.

And whatever woman shall approach any beast, so as to have connexion with it, you shall kill the woman and the beast: let them die the death, they are guilty.

Whosoever shall take his sister by his father or by his mother, and shall see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness, it is a reproach: they shall be destroyed before the children of their family; he has uncovered his sister's nakedness, they shall bear their sin.

18 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.

And whatever man shall lie with a woman that is set apart [for a flux], and shall uncover her nakedness, he has uncovered her fountain, and she has uncovered the flux of her blood: they shall both be destroyed from among their generation.

19 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.

And you shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's sister, or of the sister of your mother; for that man has uncovered the nakedness of one near akin: they shall bear their iniquity.

20 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.

Whosoever shall lie with his near kinswoman, has uncovered the nakedness of one near akin to him: they shall die childless.

21 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.

Whoever shall take his brother's wife, it is uncleanness; he has uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall die childless.

And keep you all my ordinances, and my judgments; and you shall do them, and the land shall not be aggrieved with you, into which I bring you to dwell upon it.

23 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.

And walk you not in the customs of the nations which I drive out from before you; for they have done all these things, and I have abhorred them:

24 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.

and I said to you, You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you for a possession, [even] a land flowing with milk and honey: I [am] the Lord your God, who have separated you from all people.

25 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.

And you shall make a distinction between the clean and the unclean cattle, and between clean and unclean birds; and you shall not defile your souls with cattle, or with birds, or with any creeping things of the earth, which I have separated for you by reason of uncleanness.

26 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.

And you shall be holy to me; because I the Lord your God [am] holy, who separated you from all nations, to be mine.

27 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.

And [as for] a man or woman whoever of them shall have in them a divining spirit, or be an enchanter, let them both die the death: you shall stone them with stones, they are guilty.
