1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
1BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
2Speak to Aaron, and thou shalt say to him: When thou shalt place the seven lamps, let the candlestick be set up on the south side. Give orders therefore that the lamps look over against the north, towards the table of the leaves of proposition, over against that part shall they give light, towards which the candlestick looketh.
2“Aaron te voek lamtah amah taengah thui pah. Hmaithoi te namah loh hmaitung hmai a dan ah tok lamtah hmaithoi parhih la vang saeh,” a ti nah.
3And Aaron did so, and he put the lamps upon the candlestick, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
3Te dongah Aaron loh a ngai tangloeng tih BOEIPA loh Moses a uen bangla hmaitung hmai kah a dan ah hmaithoi te a tok.
4Now this was the work of the candlestick, it was of beaten gold, both the shaft in the middle, and all that came out of both sides of the branches: according to the pattern which the Lord had shewn to Moses, so he made the candlestick.
4He hmaitung dongkah kutngo he a kho lamloh a rhaiphuelh duela sui cakben a boh thil. Te kah cakben te khaw BOEIPA loh Moses a tueng a mueimae bangla hmaitung te a saii van.
5And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
5BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
6Take the Levites out of the midst of the children of Israel, and thou shalt purify them,
6“Levi te Israel ca khui lamloh lo lamtah caihcil laeh.
7According to this rite: Let them be sprinkled with the water of purification, and let them shave all the hairs of their flesh. And when they shall have washed their garments, and are cleansed,
7Amih caihcil ham vaengah he he amih ham saii pah. Amih te cangcai tui haeh thil lamtah a pum tom ah paihat caeh sak. Te phoeiah a himbai te suk uh saeh lamtah caihcil uh saeh.
8They shall take an ox of the herd, and for the offering thereof fine flour tempered with oil: and thou shalt take another ox of the herd for a sin offering:
8Te vaengah saelhung ca dongkah vaito neh a khocang dongkah situi neh a thoek vaidam te khuen uh saeh. Te phoeiah saelhung ca dongkah vaito pabae tah boirhaem la khuen.
9And thou shalt bring the Levites before the tabernacle of the covenant, calling together all the multitude of the children of Israel:
9Levi rhoek te tingtunnah dap hmai la khuen lamtah Israel ca rhoek te rhaengpuei la boeih tingtun sak.
10And when the Levites are before the Lord, the children of Israel shall put their hands upon them:
10Levi rhoek te BOEIPA mikhmuh la khuen lamtah Israel ca rhoek loh a kut te Levi soah tloeng uh saeh.
11And Aaron shall offer the Levites, as a gift in the sight of the Lord from the children of Israel, that they may serve in his ministry.
11Israel ca rhoek khui lamkah Levi rhoek te Aaron loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah thueng hmueih la thueng saeh lamtah BOEIPA kah thothuengnah dongah tho aka thueng la om uh saeh.
12The Levites also shall put their hands upon the heads of the oxen, of which thou shalt sacrifice one for sin, and the other for a holocaust to the Lord, to pray for them.
12Levi rhoek long khaw a kut te vaito lu soah tloeng uh saeh lamtah pumat te boirhaem la nawn saeh. Te phoeiah pumat te Levi rhoek ham aka dawth la BOEIPA taengah hmueihhlutnah la nawn saeh.
13And thou shalt set the Levites in the sight of Aaron and of his sons, and shalt consecrate them being offered to the Lord,
13Te vaengah Levi rhoek te Aaron mikhmuh neh anih koca rhoek kah mikhmuh ah pai saehlamtah amih te BOEIPA taengah thueng hmueih la thueng pah.
14And shalt separate them from the midst of the children of Israel, to be mine.
14Levi rhoek te Israel ca rhoek khui lamloh hoep tangloeng lamtah Levi rhoek te kamah taengah om uh saeh.
15And afterwards they shall enter into the tabernacle of the covenant, to serve me. And thus shalt thou purify and consecrate them for an oblation of the Lord: for as a gift they were given me by the children of Israel.
15Te phoeiah tah Levi rhoek te tingtunnah dap ah thothueng ham kun uh saeh. Te vaengah amih te caihcil lamtah amih te thueng hmueih la thueng pah.
16I have taken them instead of the firstborn that open every womb in Israel,
16Israel ca khui lamloh amih te bung boeih kah cacuek yueng la kamah taengah m'pae rhoe m'pae saeh. Israel ca kah caming boeih te kamah ham ka loh coeng.
17For all the firstborn of the children of Israel, both of men and of beasts, are mine. From the day that I slew every firstborn in the land of Egypt, have I sanctified them to myself:
17Israel ca khui kah caming boeih he kamah ham ni. Egypt kho ah hlang khaw rhamsa khaw, caming boeih ka ngawn khohnin ah ni, amih te kamah ham ka ciim coeng.
18And I have taken the Levites for all the firstborn of the children of Israel:
18Levi rhoek te Israel ca rhoek khui kah caming boeih yueng la ka loh.
19And have delivered them for a gift to Aaron and his sons out of the midst of the people, to serve me for Israel in the tabernacle of the covenant, and to pray for them, lest there should be a plague among the people, if they should presume to approach unto my sanctuary.
19Tingtunnah dap ah Israel ca rhoek kah thothuengnah dongah thothueng ham neh Israel ca rhoek ham aka dawth pah la, Israel ca khui lamloh Aaron taeng neh anih koca rhoek taengah ka paek te ni Levi taengah ka paek. Te daengah ni Israel ca loh hmuencim la a mop vaengah tlohthae loh Israel ca rhoek a cuk thil pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
20And Moses and Aaron and all the multitude of the children of Israel did with the Levites all that the Lord had commanded Moses:
20Te dongah Moses, Aaron neh Israel ca rhaengpuei boeih loh Levi rhoek ham a saii pah. A cungkuem dongah BOEIPA loh Levi ham Moses a uen van bangla Israel ca rhoek loh amih ham te a saii uh tangloeng.
21And they were purified, and washed their garments. And Aaron lifted them up in the sight of the Lard, and prayed for them,
21Te phoeiah Levi rhoek te ciim uh tih a himbai te a suk uh. Aaron loh amih te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah thueng hmueih la a thueng. Amih caihcil sak ham te Aaron loh amih ham a dawth pah.
22That being purified they might go into the tabernacle of the covenant to do their services before Aaron and his sons. As the Lord had commanded Moses touching the Levites, so was it done.
22Te phoeiah tah Levi rhoek te a thothuengnah dongah thothueng ham tingtunnah dap kah Aaron mikhmuh neh anih koca rhoek kah mikhmuh la pawk uh. Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Moses a uen vanbangla Levi rhoek ham te amamih taengah a saii van.
23And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
23BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
24This is the law of the Levites: From twenty-five years old and upwards, they shall go in to minister in the tabernacle of the covenant.
24“Levi ham he tah kum kul kum nga ca lamloh a so hang mah tingtunnah dap kah thothuengnah khuiah caempuei la thotat ham kun saeh.
25And when they shall have accomplished the fiftieth year of their age, they shall cease to serve:
25Tedae kum sawmnga ca lamlong tah caempuei lamloh mael saeh lamtah thothuengnah dongah khaw thotat voel boel saeh.
26And they shall be the ministers of their brethren in the tabernacle of the covenant, to keep the things that are committed to their care, but not to do the works. Thus shalt thou order the Levites touching their charge.
26Tedae tuemkoi ngaithuen ham te tingtunnah dap ah a manuca te bong saeh. Te phoeiah thothuengnah dongah amah a thotat ham ngawn moenih. Levi rhoek te amamih kah hutnah te khueh pah,” a ti nah.
