1Then the LORD said to Moses,
1Moses te BOEIPA loh a voek tih,
2“Speak to the Israelites and tell them: I am the LORD your God.
2“Israel ca rhoek te voek lamtah thui pah. Kai tah BOEIPA na Pathen ni.
3You must not follow the practices of the land of Egypt, where you used to live, and you must not follow the practices of the land of Canaan, into which I am bringing you. You must not walk in their customs.
3Egypt 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.
4You are to practice My judgments and keep My statutes by walking in them. I am the LORD your God.
4Kai kah laitloeknah he ngai uh lamtah ka khosing te vai ham ngaithuen uh. Kai tah nangmih kah Pathen Yahweh ni.
5Keep My statutes and My judgments, for the man who does these things will live by them. I am the LORD.
5Te dongah kai kah khosing aka ngaithuen tih ka laitloeknah aka ngai hlang te tah tekah khosing dongah hing van ni. Kai tah BOEIPA ni.
6None of you are to approach any close relative to have sexual relations. I am the LORD.
6Hlang la aka om hlang long tah amah kah a pum a saa boeih te ayah hliphen ham paan boel saeh. Kai tah BOEIPA ni.
7You must not expose the nakedness of your father by having sexual relations with your mother. She is your mother; you must not have sexual relations with her.
7Na pa kah a yah khaw, na nu kah a yah khaw, na manu khaw hliphen boeh. A yah khaw hliphen pah boeh.
8You must not have sexual relations with your father’s wife; it would dishonor your father.
8Na pa yuu kah a yah, na pa kah a yah te hliphen pah boeh.
9You must not have sexual relations with your sister, either your father’s daughter or your mother’s daughter, whether she was born in the same home or elsewhere.
9Na 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.
10You must not have sexual relations with your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter, for that would shame your family.
10Na 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.
11You must not have sexual relations with the daughter of your father’s wife, born to your father; she is your sister.
11Na pa yuu canu kah a yah khaw, na pa kah pacaboeina, na ngannu kah a yah khaw hliphen boeh.
12You must not have sexual relations with your father’s sister; she is your father’s close relative.
12Na pa ngannu kah , na pa huiko kah a yah khaw hliphen pah boeh.
13You must not have sexual relations with your mother’s sister, for she is your mother’s close relative.
13Na nu kah a tanu, na nu huiko kah a yah khaw hliphen pah boeh.
14You must not dishonor your father’s brother by approaching his wife to have sexual relations with her; she is your aunt.
14Na pa manuca kah a yah khaw hliphen boeh. Anih yuu neh na pi khaw paan pah boeh.
15You must not have sexual relations with your daughter-in-law. She is your son’s wife; you are not to have sexual relations with her.
15Na langa kah a yah te hliphen pah boeh. Na ca yuu kah a yah khaw hliphen pah boeh.
16You must not have sexual relations with your brother’s wife; that would shame your brother.
16Na manuca yuu kah a yah, na manuca kah a yah te hliphen pah boeh.
17You must not have sexual relations with both a woman and her daughter. You are not to marry her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter and have sexual relations with her. They are close relatives; it is depraved.
17Na 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.
18You must not take your wife’s sister as a rival wife and have sexual relations with her while your wife is still alive.
18Na yuu amah a hing lalah a yah hliphen pah ham neh daengdaeh ham a tanu te lo boeh.
19You must not approach a woman to have sexual relations with her during her menstrual period.
19Te phoeiah huta te a ti a hnai neh pumom tue vaengah a yah hliphen pah ham paan boeh.
20You must not lie carnally with your neighbor’s wife and thus defile yourself with her.
20Na imben kah a yuu aka poeih ham khaw na tamtah tii te khueh boeh.
21You must not give any of your children to be sacrificed to Molech, for you must not profane the name of your God. I am the LORD.
21Na tiingan te Molek taengah khumpael sak ham pae boeh. Te dongah na Pathen ming te poeih boeh. Kai tah BOEIPA ni.
22You must not lie with a man as with a woman; that is an abomination.
22tongpa puei khaw huta thingkong bangla yalh puei boeh. Te ta tueilaehkoi ni.
23You must not lie carnally with any animal, thus defiling yourself with it; a woman must not stand before an animal to mate with it; that is a perversion.
23Rhamsa 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.
24Do not defile yourselves by any of these practices, for by all these things the nations I am driving out before you have defiled themselves.
24He boeih nen he poeih uh boeh. Namtom rhoek khaw he boeih nen he a poeih uh dongah ni nangmih mikhmuh ah ka haek.
25Even the land has become defiled, so I am punishing it for its sin, and the land will vomit out its inhabitants.
25Khohmuen pataeng a poeih uh dongah amah kathaesainah te ka cawh pah tih, khohmuen kah khosa rhoek khaw a lok thil.
26But you are to keep My statutes and ordinances, and you must not commit any of these abominations—neither your native-born nor the foreigner who lives among you.
26Tedae 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.
27For the men who were in the land before you committed all these abominations, and the land has become defiled.
27Nangmih mikhmuh kah tolrhum hlang rhoek loh he rhoek kah tueilaehkoi boeih he a saii uh dongah khohmuen khaw a poeih uh.
28So if you defile the land, it will vomit you out as it spewed out the nations before you.
28Te dongah nangmih mikhmuh kah namtom a tha bangla na khohmuen na poeih uh van tih nangmih khaw khohmuen loh n'tha boel saeh.
29Therefore anyone who commits any of these abominations must be cut off from among his people.
29U hlang khaw he rhoek kah tueilaehkoi hno khat khat a saii atah aka saii hlanghing boeih te pilnam lamkah hnawt saeh.
30You must keep My charge not to practice any of the abominable customs that were practiced before you, so that you do not defile yourselves by them. I am the LORD your God.”
30Te 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.
