1Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
1The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2Aaron han, Hmaiim na thlaek naah, hmaiim sarihto paanghaih tung hmabang ah thlaek hanah thui paeh, tiah a naa.
2“Speak to Aaron, and tell him, ‘When you light the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lamp stand.’”
3To naah Aaron mah to tiah a sak; Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, anih mah hmaiim tung hmabang ah hmaiim to angqoisak boih.
3Aaron did so. He lit its lamps to light the area in front of the lamp stand, as the LORD commanded Moses.
4Hmaiim tung loe, Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah patuek ih krang baktih toengah a sak; takung hoi tadong khoek to sui hoiah a sak.
4This was the workmanship of the lamp stand, beaten work of gold. From its base to its flowers, it was beaten work. He made the lamp stand according to the pattern which the LORD had shown Moses.
5Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
5The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
6Israel kaminawk salak hoi Levinawk to la ah loe, ciimsak ah.
6“Take the Levites from among the children of Israel, and cleanse them.
7Nihcae ciimsak hanah, hae tiah sah ah; ciimsakhaih tui to nihcae nuiah bawh ah; nganmui to aat o nasoe loe, khukbuennawk doeh pasuk o nasoe, to tiah ciimsak ah.
7You shall do this to them to cleanse them: sprinkle the water of cleansing on them, let them shave their whole bodies with a razor, let them wash their clothes, and cleanse themselves.
8Saning kanawk maitaw tae maeto, cang hoi angbawnhaih sak ih baktiah, situi hoiah atok tangcae ih takaw dip hoi nawnto, zae angbawnhaih sak hanah, kalah saning kanawk maitaw tae maeto sin nasoe.
8Then let them take a young bull and its meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil; and another young bull you shall take for a sin offering.
9Levinawk to amkhuenghaih kahni im hmabang ah angzosak ah loe, Israel acaeng kaminawk to nawnto amkhuengsak boih ah;
9You shall present the Levites before the Tent of Meeting. You shall assemble the whole congregation of the children of Israel.
10Levinawk to Angraeng hmaa ah hoi ah; to naah Israel kaminawk mah nihcae nuiah ban koeng o tih.
10You shall present the Levites before the LORD. The children of Israel shall lay their hands on the Levites,
11Israel kaminawk mah tathlang o ih hmuen ah, Aaron mah Levinawk to Angraeng khaeah tathlang tih; to naah nihcae mah Angraeng ih tok to sah o tih.
11and Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD for a wave offering on the behalf of the children of Israel, that it may be theirs to do the service of the LORD.
12Levi kaminawk mah maitaw lunawk nuiah ban koeng o tih; Levi kaminawk zae angbawnhaih sak hanah maitaw maeto, hmai hoi angbawnhaih sak hanah kalah maitaw maeto Angraeng khaeah paek ah.
12“The Levites shall lay their hands on the heads of the bulls, and you shall offer the one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering to the LORD, to make atonement for the Levites.
13Levi kaminawk to Aaron hoi a caanawk hmaa ah angdoesak ah loe, nihcae to tathlang ih hmuen ah Angraeng khaeah paek ah.
13You shall set the Levites before Aaron and before his sons, and offer them as a wave offering to the LORD.
14Hae tiah Levi kaminawk to Israel kaminawk salak hoi pahoe ah; Levinawk loe kai ih hmuen ah om o tih.
14Thus you shall separate the Levites from among the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine.
15To tiah Levinawk ciimsak hanah na tathlang pacoengah ni, nihcae loe amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah toksak han caeh o vop tih.
15“After that, the Levites shall go in to do the service of the Tent of Meeting. You shall cleanse them, and offer them as a wave offering.
16Nihcae loe Israel kaminawk thungah kai khaeah takpum angpaek boih kami ah oh o; zok thung hoi tacawt kami boih, Israel kaminawk ih calu boih zuengah nihcae to ka lak boeh.
16For they are wholly given to me from among the children of Israel; instead of all who open the womb, even the firstborn of all the children of Israel, I have taken them to me.
17Kami maw, moi maw, Israel kaminawk ih calu boih loe kai ih ni; Izip prae ih calu to ka tamit boih naah, nihcae to kaimah hanah ka pahoe boeh.
17For all the firstborn among the children of Israel are mine, both man and animal. On the day that I struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I sanctified them for myself.
18Israel kaminawk thung ih calu boih zuengah, Levinawk to ka lak boeh.
18I have taken the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the children of Israel.
19Israel kaminawk hmuenciim ah caeh o naah, nathaih kasae a tongh o han ai ah, amkhuenghaih kahni im ah tok to sak o moe, Israel caanawk akranghaih to a sak o hanah, Israel kaminawk thungah Levi kaminawk loe Aaron hoi a caanawk hanah tangqum ah ka paek boeh, tiah a naa.
19I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to his sons from among the children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the Tent of Meeting, and to make atonement for the children of Israel, so that there will be no plague among the children of Israel when the children of Israel come near to the sanctuary.”
20Levi kawng pongah, Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Mosi, Aaron hoi Israel acaengnawk mah, Levinawk nuiah sak o.
20Moses, and Aaron, and all the congregation of the children of Israel did so to the Levites. According to all that the LORD commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so the children of Israel did to them.
21Levinawk loe ciimcai o moe, khukbuennawk to pasuk o; Aaron mah nihcae han paek ih hmuen baktih toengah, Angraeng khaeah a paek moe, nihcae ciim hanah angbawnhaih to a sak pae.
21The Levites purified themselves from sin, and they washed their clothes; and Aaron offered them for a wave offering before the LORD and Aaron made atonement for them to cleanse them.
22Levi kawng pongah, Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, kaminawk mah sak o; to pacoengah Levinawk loe kahni im ah toksak hanah, Aaron hoi a caanawk hma ah caeh o.
22After that, the Levites went in to do their service in the Tent of Meeting before Aaron and before his sons: as the LORD had commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so they did to them.
23To pacoengah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
23The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
24Levi kaminawk loe saning pumphae pangato akoep pacoengah ni, amkhuenghaih kahni im ah toksak han caeh o vop tih; hae loe Levinawk mah sak han koi tok ah oh.
24“This is what is assigned to the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall go in to wait on the service in the work of the Tent of Meeting;
25Toe saning qui pangato akoep naah loe, kahni im thungah toksakhaih hoiah anghak o tih; toksah o mak ai boeh;
25and from the age of fifty years they shall retire from doing the work, and shall serve no more,
26Angmacae nawkamyanawk hoi nawnto toksah o tih; toe nihcae loe toksah o mak ai boeh. Hae tiah Levi kaminawk mah sak han koi tok to sah paeh, tiah a naa.
26but shall assist their brothers in the Tent of Meeting, to perform the duty, and shall perform no service. This is how you shall have the Levites do their duties.”
