Olrhaepnah 15

1 Kum rhih a thok vaengah laiba hlahnah na saii ni.

At the end of every seven years you shall make a release.

2 He tah laiba hlahnah olka ni. Boei boeih loh a kut dongkah cangpu te a hui taengah a pu. Tedae BOEIPA kah laiba hlahnah a hoe coeng dongah a hui neh a manuca taengah laisuk boel saeh.

And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lends ought unto his neighbour shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD's release.

3 Kholong loh nang a khueh te tah suk mai. Tedae na manuca kah te tah namah kut loh hmil saeh.

Of a foreigner you may exact it again: but that which is your with your brother your hand shall release;

4 Tedae BOEIPA loh nang kah te diklai ah a uem rhoe a uem vetih na khuiah khodaeng om mahpawh. Te te na Pathen BOEIPA loh rho la pang sak ham namah taengah m'paek coeng.

Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD shall greatly bless you in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it:

5 BOEIPA na Pathen kah ol he na yaak la na yaak atah tihnin kah kai loh nang kang uen olpaek boeih he vai hamla ngaithuen.

Only if you carefully hearken unto the voice of the LORD your God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command you this day.

6 Nang taengah a thui bangla BOEIPA na Pathen loh yoethen m'paek bitni. Te vaengah namtom miping taengah cangpu na hlah vetih cangpu na rhong mahpawh. Namtom miping te na taemrhai thil vetih nang te n'taemrhai uh thil mahpawh.

For the LORD your God blesses you, as he promised you: and you shall lend unto many nations, but you shall not borrow; and you shall reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over you.

7 BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang m'paek na khohmuen, na vongka khat khat khuikah na manuca khat khat te nang taengah khodaeng la a om atah na thin pom thil boeh. Na manuca kah a khodaeng te na kut buem thil boeh.

If there be among you a poor man of one of your brethren within any of your gates in your land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart, nor shut your hand from your poor brother:

8 Anih ham te na kut hlam rhoe hlam pah. Anih te a vaitah vaengah a tloelnah carhil tah na pu rhoe na pu ni.

But you shall open your hand wide unto him, and shall surely lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wants.

9 Namah te ngaithuen, na thinko ah a muen ol om ve. Kum rhih dongkah, laiba hlahnah kum yoei coeng,” na ti ve. Na manuca, khodaeng te na mik a lolh lalah anih te na pae pawt ve. Nang te BOEIPA taengah m'pang thil vetih nang soah tholhnah la om ve.

Beware that there be not a thought in your wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and your eye be evil against your poor brother, and you give him nothing; and he cry unto the LORD against you, and it be sin unto you.

10 Anih te na paek rhoek na paek ni. Na paek vaengah na thinko loh hnaih boel saeh. Te bang ol kong ah ni na bibi boeih neh na kut na thuengnah boeih dongah BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang yoethen m'paek eh.

You shall surely give him, and your heart shall not be grieved when you give unto him: because that for this thing the LORD your God shall bless you in all your works, and in all that you put your hand unto.

11 Na khohmuen khui lamkah khodaeng he paa mahpawh. Te dongah ni kai loh nang kang uen tih, “Na khohmuen kah na mangdaeng puei neh na khodaeng puei na manuca ham tah na kut te na hlam rhoela na hlam ni,” ka ti.

For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command you, saying, You shall open your hand wide unto your brother, to your poor, and to your needy, in your land.

12 Nang taengah na manuca Hebrewpa khaw, Hebrewnu khawha yoi uh mai ni. Tedae nang taengah kum rhuk a thohtat phoeiah tah a kum rhih vaengah anih te namah taeng lamloh sayalh la hlah laeh.

And if your brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew woman, be sold unto you, and serve you six years; then in the seventh year you shall let him go free from you.

13 Anih te namah taeng lamloh na tueih vaengah kuttling la tueih boeh.

And when you send him out free from you, you shall not let him go away empty:

14 BOEIPA na Pathen loh yoethen m'paek vanbangla anih te na boiva, na canghlom, na va-am neh na phaeng rhoe na phaeng vetih na paek ni.

You shall furnish him liberally out of your flock, and out of your floor, and out of your winepress: of that wherewith the LORD your God has blessed you you shall give unto him.

15 Egypt kho ah sal la na om vaengah nang aka lat BOEIPA na Pathen te poek lah. Te dongah ni tihnin kah olka he kai loh nang kang uen.

And you shall remember that you were a bondman in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you: therefore I command you this thing to day.

16 Tedae nang n'lungnah tih, “Nang taeng lamloh ka nong mahpawh,” a ti phoeiah na imkhuikho rhangneh anih ham a hoeikhang atah namah taengah om mai saeh.

And it shall be, if he say unto you, I will not go away from you; because he loves you and your house, because he is well with you;

17 Te vaengah ciphuem lo lamtah a hna vueh pah. Na thohkhaih khuiah nang ham sal la kumhal ah om bitni. Na salnu ham khaw te tlam te saii pah van.

Then you shall take an aul, and thrust it through his ear unto the door, and he shall be your servant for ever. And also unto your maidservant you shall do likewise.

18 A kutloh phu rhaepnit neh nang taengah kum rhuk a thohtat coeng dongah namah taeng lamloh sayalh la na hlah vaengah khaw na mikhmuh ah mangkhak sak boeh. Te daengah ni na bi saii boeih dongah BOEIPA na Pathen loh nang te yoethen m'paek eh.

It shall not seem hard unto you, when you send him away free from you; for he has been worth a double hired servant to you, in serving you six years: and the LORD your God shall bless you in all that you do.

19 Na saelhung neh boiva dongkah a tal la aka thaang cacuek boeih te tah BOEIPA na Pathen ham ciim pah. Na vaito cacuek te thohtat sak boeh. Na boiva cacuek mul te khaw vo boeh.

All the first born males that come of your herd and of your flock you shall sanctify unto the LORD your God: you shall do no work with the first born of your bullock, nor shear the first born of your sheep.

20 BOEIPA loh a coelh ham hmuen, BOEIPA na Pathen kah mikhmuh ah namah neh na imkhui loh kum khat phoeiah kum khat ca uh.

You shall eat it before the LORD your God year by year in the place which the LORD shall choose, you and your household.

21 A pum dongah aka khaem tih aka lolhmaih mai khaw mikdael neh aka lolhmaih khat khat a om atah thae aih coeng. BOEIPA na Pathen taengah nawn boeh.

And if there be any blemish therein, as if it be lame, or blind, or have any ill blemish, you shall not sacrifice it unto the LORD your God.

22 A rhalawt akhaw a cuem akhaw na vongka khuiah kirhang bangla, rhangrhaeh bangla rhenten ca.

You shall eat it within your gates: the unclean and the clean person shall eat it alike, as the roebuck, and as the hart.

23 Tedae a thii te ca boeh. Diklai dongah tui bangla hawk.

Only you shall not eat the blood thereof; you shall pour it upon the ground as water.
