1BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih, “Aaron koca khosoih te voek lamtah thui pah. Amih loh a hinglu te a pilnam taengah poeih boel saeh.
1And the LORD said unto Moses: Speak unto the priests the sons of Aaron, and say unto them: There shall none defile himself for the dead among his people;
2amah pumsa, amah huiko rhep ham, a manu ham, a napa ham, a capa ham, a canu ham, a manuca ham,
2except for his kin, that is near unto him, for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother;
3a ngannu a va om pawt tih anih dongah oila la aka hangdang ham atah poeih uh mai saeh.
3and for his sister a virgin, that is near unto him, that hath had no husband, for her may he defile himself.
4Amah aka poeih ham a pilnam khuikah boei nen khaw poeih uh boel saeh.
4He shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to profane himself.
5A lu te lungawng la kuet rhoe kuet uh boel saeh. A baengpae neh a baengki khaw vo uh boel saeh. A pumsa te a boenah neh boe uh boel saeh.
5They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corners of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
6A Pathen ham a cim la om uh saeh lamtah a Pathen ming te poeih uh boel saeh. Te dongah BOEIPA kah hmaihlutnah, Pathen kah buh aka nawn amih khaw a cim la om uh saeh.
6They shall be holy unto their God, and not profane the name of their God; for the offerings of the LORD made by fire, the bread of their God, they do offer; therefore they shall be holy.
7Pumyoi neh huta rhong te lo uh boel saeh. A va aka ma huta khaw lo uh boel saeh. Te dongah a Pathen ham a cim la om saeh.
7They shall not take a woman that is a harlot, or profaned; neither shall they take a woman put away from her husband; for he is holy unto his God.
8Khosoih long tah na Pathen kah buh a nawn dongah amah te ciim uh saeh. Nangmih aka ciim BOEIPA kamah he ka cim dongah khosoih khaw nang taengah a cim la om saeh.
8Thou shalt sanctify him therefore; for he offereth the bread of thy God; he shall be holy unto thee; for I the LORD, who sanctify you, am holy.
9Khosoih tongpa kah a canu khaw a cuk a halh loh a poeih atah a napa ni a poeih. Te dongah anih te hmai neh hoeh uh saeh.
9And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the harlot, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire.
10A manuca khui lamkah a lu dongah koelhnah situi a suep pah tih himbai bai ham a kut a tloeng thil khosoih a ham long tah a lu dongkah lupong te dul boel saeh lamtah a himbai te phen boel saeh.
10And the priest that is highest among his brethren, upon whose head the anointing oil is poured, and that is consecrated to put on the garments, shall not let the hair of his head go loose, nor rend his clothes;
11Aka duek hinglu boeih taengah khaw cet boel saeh. A napa ham neh a manu ham khaw poeih uh boel saeh.
11neither shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his father, or for his mother;
12Rhokso lamkah khaw nong boel saeh. Anih soah a Pathen kah koelhnah situi rhuisam a om coeng dongah a Pathen kah rhokso te poeih boel saeh. Kai tah BOEIPA ni.
12neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the consecration of the anointing oil of his God is upon him: I am the LORD.
13A yuu khaw a cuemnah neh lo saeh.
13And he shall take a wife in her virginity.
14Nuhmai, vama, pumyoi hlang rhong khaw lo boel saeh. A pilnam khuikah oila bueng te a yuu la lo saeh.
14A widow, or one divorced, or a profaned woman, or a harlot, these shall he not take; but a virgin of his own people shall he take to wife.
15Anih te BOEIPA kamah loh ka ciim coeng dongah a pilnam khuikah a tii a ngan long khaw poeih boel saeh,” a ti nah.
15And he shall not profane his seed among his people; for I am the LORD who sanctify him.
16Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses a voek tih,
16And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
17“Aaron te voek lamtah a cadilcahma ham khaw, 'Na tii na ngan taengah rhip thui pah,’ ti nah. U khaw a pum dongah a lolhmaih a om atah a Pathen kah buh aka nawn ham ha moe boel saeh.
17Speak unto Aaron, saying: Whosoever he be of thy seed throughout their generations that hath a blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
18A pum dongah a lolh a maih aka om hlang boeih, mikdael neh aka khaem khaw, a sa aka vawt neh a sa aka hoei hlang khaw,
18For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath any thing maimed, or anything too long,
19A pum dongah kut tlawt, kho tlawt aka om hlang te khaw,
19or a man that is broken-footed, or broken-handed,
20tingkhun khaw, merheh khaw, mik haeh khaw, phaikawk neh vinhna khaw, til hi khaw ha mop boel saeh.
20or crook-backed, or a dwarf, or that hath his eye overspread, or is scabbed, or scurvy, or hath his stones crushed;
21Khosoih Aaron tiingan khuikah hlang khat khat te a pum dongah a lolh a maih atah BOEIPA kah hmaihlutnah nawn ham ha mop boel saeh. A Pathen kah buh te nawn ham ha mop boel saeh.
21no man of the seed of Aaron the priest, that hath a blemish, shall come nigh to offer the offerings of the LORD made by fire; he hath a blemish; he shall not come nigh to offer the bread of his God.
22A Pathen kah buh tah a cim uet ah cim tih aka cim van loh ca saeh.
22He may eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy.
23Te dongah a pum dongah a lolh a maih aka om loh hniyan khuila kun boel saeh lamtah hmueihtuk taengla mop boel saeh. Te daengah ni ka rhokso te a poeih pawt eh. Amih te BOEIPA kamah long ni ka ciim,” a ti nah.
23Only he shall not go in unto the veil, nor come nigh unto the altar, because he hath a blemish; that he profane not My holy places; for I am the LORD who sanctify them.
24Te dongah Moses loh Aaron neh anih koca rhoek taengah, Israel ca boeih taengah a thui pah.
24So Moses spoke unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel.
