Deuteronomy 32
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1Give ear, ye heavens, and I will speak; and let the earth hear the words of my mouth.
1Aw vannawk, tahngai oh, lok ka thuih han vop; Aw long, ka pakha thung ih loknawk hae, tahngai ah.
2My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew; as the small rain upon the tender grass, and as the showers upon the herb.
2Ka patukhaih loe kho baktiah angzo ueloe, ka thuih ih lok doeh dantui baktiah krah tih; aan kahing nuiah kakrah kho baktih, qam nuiah kakrah khotui baktiah om tih;
3For I will proclaim the name of the LORD; ascribe ye greatness unto our God.
3Angraeng ih ahmin to ka thuih moe, aicae Sithaw lensawkhaih to ka pakoeh han.
4The Rock, His work is perfect; for all His ways are justice; a God of faithfulness and without iniquity, just and right is He.
4Anih loe lungsong ah oh moe, a toksakhaih doeh akoep; a caehhaih loklamnawk loe toeng boih; anih loe loktang Sithaw ah oh moe, hmuen sakpazaehaih tawn ai, anih loe katoeng kami ah oh, toeng ai tiah thuih koi tidoeh om ai.
5Is corruption His? No; His children's is the blemish; a generation crooked and perverse.
5Nihcae loe amro o boeh; Sithaw ih caa ah om o ai, amhnong o boeh; nihcae loe oepthok ai moe, poekhaih katoeng ai caa ah ni oh o.
6Do ye thus requite the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? is not He thy father that hath gotten thee? hath He not made thee, and established thee?
6Aw palunghahaih tawn ai amthu kaminawk, Angraeng loe to tiah maw na sak pathok o han? Anih loe nangcae zaehoikung ampa ah na ai maw oh? Nangcae sahkung hoi caksakkung ah na ai maw a oh?
7Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations; ask thy father, and he will declare unto thee, thine elders, and they will tell thee.
7Canghnii ih atue to panoek oh loe, kalaem tangcae paroeai atuenawk to poek oh; nam pa to dueng ah, anih mah na patuek tih; kacoehtanawk to dueng oh, nihcae mah na thui o tih.
8When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when He separated the children of men, He set the borders of the peoples according to the number of the children of Israel.
8Kasang koek Sithaw loe Adam ih caa ah kaom kaminawk to tapraek moe, qawk pazet naah, Israel caanawk loe nazetto maw oh o, tiah a khet, to pacoengah kaminawk hanah ramri to pakhoih pae.
9For the portion of the LORD is His people, Jacob the lot of His inheritance.
9Angraeng ih taham loe, angmah ih kaminawk hae ni; Jokob loe anih ih qawk toepkung ah oh.
10He found him in a desert land, and in the waste, a howling wilderness; He compassed him about, He cared for him, He kept him as the apple of His eye.
10Anih mah tidoeh om ai long karoem, praezaek ah Jakob to hnuk naah, anih to zaeh moe, loklam patuek; angmah ih mikmu baktiah a suek.
11As an eagle that stirreth up her nest, hovereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her pinions —
11Tahmu loe angmah ih tabu to ahuenh moe, a caanawk to pakhraeh hoiah hawh; a caanawk khuk hanah pakhraeh phok moe, pakhraeh hoiah a caanawk lak baktih toengah,
12The LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with Him.
12Jakob loe Angraeng angmah khue mah ni zaeh; anih khaeah prae kalah sithawnawk om o ai.
13He made him ride on the high places of the earth, and he did eat the fruitage of the field; and He made him to suck honey out of the crag, and oil out of the flinty rock;
13Anih to maesang ah anghnutsak moe, prae thung ih thingthai hoiah pacah, cathaeng pong ih khoitui hoiah pacah pacoengah, kamtak parai thlung thung ih situi hoiah pacah;
14Curd of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and he-goats, with the kidney-fat of wheat; and of the blood of the grape thou drankest foaming wine.
14kamkhawk maitaw tahnutui, tuu tahnu tui, tuu caa athawk, Bashan ih tuu taenawk, maehnawk, kahoih koek takaw dip hoiah pacah; pacii ih misurtui athii to a naek.
15But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked — thou didst wax fat, thou didst grow thick, thou didst become gross — and he forsook God who made him, and contemned the Rock of his salvation.
15Toe Jeshurun loe thawk hruk moe, khok hoiah pathuih; nang loe na thawk hruk, na qoeng tahang moe, athawk hoiah na koi; to pacoengah anih sahkung Sithaw to caehtaak moe, anih pahlonghaih thlung to tiah doeh sah ai.
16They roused Him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations did they provoke Him.
16Anih to prae kalah sithawnawk hoi utsak moe, panuet thok krangnawk hoiah palungphuisak.
17They sacrificed unto demons, no-gods, gods that they knew not, new gods that came up of late, which your fathers dreaded not.
17Sithaw ah kaom ai, taqawknawk, panoek ai ih sithawnawk, ampanawk mah zii o ai ih, canghni pangah kaom kangtha sithawnawk khaeah, angbawnhaih to a sak o.
18Of the Rock that begot thee thou wast unmindful, and didst forget God that bore thee.
18Nangcae sahkung lungsong to na panoek o ai boeh moe, nangcae cunkung Sithaw doeh na pahnet o boeh.
19And the LORD saw, and spurned, because of the provoking of His sons and His daughters.
19To hmuennawk to Angraeng mah hnuk naah, palungphui moe, a capanawk hoi a canunawk to pahnawt sut.
20And He said: 'I will hide My face from them, I will see what their end shall be; for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faithfulness.
20Nihcae khae hoi mikhmai ka hawk han boeh; nihcae boenghaih kawbang maw om tih, tiah ka khet han; nihcae loe oep kaom ai kami, tanghaih cak ai caa ah oh o.
21They have roused Me to jealousy with a no-god; they have provoked Me with their vanities; and I will rouse them to jealousy with a no-people; I will provoke them with a vile nation.
21Sithaw ah kaom ai hmuen hoiah kai utsak hanah a sak o moe, tidoeh angcoeng ai krang hoiah kai palung ang phui o sak; kaimah doeh nihcae to tiah kaom ai kaminawk hoiah ka utsak moe, kamthu acaengnawk hoiah palung ka phuisak toeng han.
22For a fire is kindled in My nostril, and burneth unto the depths of the nether-world, and devoureth the earth with her produce, and setteth ablaze the foundations of the mountains.
22Kai loe hmai baktiah palungphui amngaeh pongah, kahnaem koek hell thung khoek to kangh tih; long hoi thingthainawk boih hmai ka kanghsak han, mae angdoethaih ahmuen khoek to hmai mah kangh tih.
23I will heap evils upon them; I will spend Mine arrows upon them;
23Nihcae nuiah raihaih ka phaksak moe, nihcae kah hanah kaimah ih pala to ka patoh han.
24The wasting of hunger, and the devouring of the fiery bolt, and bitter destruction; and the teeth of beasts will I send upon them, with the venom of crawling things of the dust.
24Nihcae loe zok amthlamhaih, kabae hmai mah kanghaih, kanung parai amrohaih hoiah dueh o tih; moi kasannawk ih haa hoi maiphu thungah kaom pahui kasoetui to nihcae khaeah ka patoeh han.
25Without shall the sword bereave, and in the chambers terror; slaying both young man and virgin, the suckling with the man of gray hairs.
25Thendoengnawk, kacuem tanglanawk, nawktanawk hoi sampok mitongnawk hanah loe imthung ah zithaih to om ueloe, tasang bangah sumsen hoiah amro o boih tih.
26I thought I would make an end of them, I would make their memory cease from among men;
26Long boeng khoek to nihcae to ka haek moe, kaminawk panoekhaih kang hmatsak han;
27Were it not that I dreaded the enemy's provocation, lest their adversaries should misdeem, lest they should say: Our hand is exalted, and not the LORD hath wrought all this.'
27toe nihcae ih misanawk loe amoek o ueloe, nihcae mah, Angraeng mah sak ih hmuen tidoeh om ai, kacak kaimacae ih ban hoiah ni ka pazawk o, tiah thuih o moeng tih, tiah ka zit tiah, a thuih.
28For they are a nation void of counsel, and there is no understanding in them.
28Nihcae loe poekhaih tawn ai kami, panoekhaih tawn ai kami ah oh o.
29If they were wise, they would understand this, they would discern their latter end.
29Aw nihcae palungha o nahaeloe, hae hmuen hae panoek o ueloe, hnukkhuem ah kawbangah maw om tih, tito panoek o tih, tiah a thuih.
30How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had given them over and the LORD had delivered them up?
30Angmacae ih lungsong mah nihcae to zaw ai moe, Angraeng mah nihcae pahnawt ai nahaeloe, kawbang maw kami maeto mah kami sangto patom thai ueloe, kami hnetto mah kami sang hato cawnsak thai tih?
31For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges.
31Aicae ih misanawk lokcaek ah om o cadoeh, nihcae ih thlung loe aicae ih thlung hoiah anghmong ai.
32For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah; their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter;
32Anih ih misurkung loe Sodom hoi Gomorrah lawk hoi angzo misurkung ah oh; nihcae ih misurthaih loe khaa moe, misur abomnawk doeh khaa parai.
33Their wine is the venom of serpents, and the cruel poison of asps.
33Nihcae ih misurtui loe pahui pui ih kasoe tui hoi pahui sae ih kasoe ah oh.
34'Is not this laid up in store with Me, sealed up in My treasuries?
34Hae hmuen loe kai khaeah suek moe, kai ih hmuen pakuemhaih ahmuen ah tacik daeng boeh na ai maw?
35Vengeance is Mine, and recompense, against the time when their foot shall slip; for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that are to come upon them shall make haste.
35Lu lakhaih hoi sakpazaehaih baktih toengah sak pathok lethaih loe kai ih tok ah ni oh; nihcae loe atue phak naah amthaek o tih; nihcae amrohaih atue loe zoi boeh moe, nihcae mah tongh han ih hmuen doeh karangah angzo tih boeh.
36For the LORD will judge His people, and repent Himself for His servants; when He seeth that their stay is gone, and there is none remaining, shut up or left at large.
36Anih ih tamnanawk loe thaboeng o sut boeh, Angraeng mah angmah ih kaminawk to lokcaek ueloe, thongkrah kami hoi kaloih kami maeto doeh om mak ai, tiah panoek naah, a tamnanawk pongah dawnpakhuemhaih tawn tih.
37And it is said: Where are their gods, the rock in whom they trusted;
37Anih mah, Nihcae ih sithawnawk hoi abuephaih lungsong loe naa ah maw oh?
38Who did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink-offering? let him rise up and help you, let him be your protection.
38Angbawnhaih athawk kacaa kaminawk hoi naek hanah bokhaih misurtui nae kaminawk loe naa ah maw oh o boih boeh? Nihcae angthawk o nasoe, nangcae to abomh o nasoe loe, pakaa o nasoe khae, tiah thui tih.
39See now that I, even I, am He, and there is no god with Me; I kill, and I make alive; I have wounded, and I heal; and there is none that can deliver out of My hand.
39Khenah, Kai loe Sithaw ah Ka oh! Kai pacoengah kalah sithaw roe om ai boeh; Kai mah ka dueksak moe, Kai mah ni ka hingsak let; Kai mah ahma ka caaksak moe, Kai mah ni ka hoihsak let; ka ban thung hoi pahlong thaih kami mi doeh om ai.
40For I lift up My hand to heaven, and say: As I live for ever,
40Van bangah ban ka payangh moe, kai loe dungzan ah ka hingh baktih toengah,
41If I whet My glittering sword, and My hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to Mine adversaries, and will recompense them that hate Me.
41kampha suidik sumsen to ka taak moe, ka ban hoiah lokcaekhaih to ka sak; ka misanawk to lu ka lak moe, kai hnuma kaminawk nuiah kating ah lu ka lak han,
42I will make Mine arrows drunk with blood, and My sword shall devour flesh; with the blood of the slain and the captives, from the long-haired heads of the enemy.'
42kai ih palanawk to kami athii ka naeksak moe, ka sumsen to kami ngan ka caaksak han; hum ih kami hoi naeh ih kaminawk ih athii, misa zaehoikung ih lunawk to ka takroek han, tiah lok ka thuih.
43Sing aloud, O ye nations, of His people; for He doth avenge the blood of His servants, and doth render vengeance to His adversaries, and doth make expiation for the land of His people.
43Aw prae kaminawk, Angraeng ih kaminawk hoi nawnto anghoe oh; anih loe a tamnanawk ih athii tho to la ueloe, a misanawk nuiah lu la tih; angmah ih prae hoi kaminawk nuiah palungnathaih tawn tih.
44And Moses came and spoke all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun.
44Mosi loe Nun capa Hoshea hoi nawnto angzoh hoi moe, kaminawk boih mah thaih hanah, hae laa loknawk hae a thuih pae hoi boih.
45And when Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel,
45Mosi mah Israel kaminawk khaeah hae loknawk thuih pae boih pacoengah,
46he said unto them: 'Set your heart unto all the words wherewith I testify against you this day; that ye may charge your children therewith to observe to do all the words of this law.
46nihcae khaeah, Vaihniah nangcae khae ka thuih ih loknawk boih hae palung thungah pakuem oh; to tiah ni hae ih kaaloknawk hae kahoih ah na pazui o thai boih ueloe, na caanawk khaeah doeh na thui pae o thai tih.
47For it is no vain thing for you; because it is your life, and through this thing ye shall prolong your days upon the land, whither ye go over the Jordan to possess it.'
47Hae loe nangcae han avang ai hmuen na ai ni; nangcae hinghaih ah ni oh; Jordan vapui nang kat o moe, na toep o han koi prae thungah hae hmuen hae na pakuem o nahaeloe, na hinglung sawk o tih, tiah a naa.
48And the LORD spoke unto Moses that selfsame day, saying:
48To na niah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,
49'Get thee up into this mountain of Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel for a possession;
49Jeriko vangpui pacoengah kaom, Moab prae Abarim maesang ih Nebo maesom nuiah daw tahang ah loe, Israel kaminawk khaeah qawk ah toep han ka paek ih, Kanaan prae to dan ah;
50and die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people.
50nang loe na dawh tahang ih mae nuiah na dueh tih, nam ya Aaron loe Hor mae nuiah duek moe, angmah ih kaminawk amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah angkuem baktih toengah, nang doeh nangmah ih kaminawk amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah nang kuem toeng tih:
51Because ye trespassed against Me in the midst of the children of Israel at the waters of Meribath-kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified Me not in the midst of the children of Israel.
51nanghnik loe Zin praezaek ah, Meribah-Kadesh ahmuen ih tuipuek taengah, Israel kaminawk hma ah tang han koi kaom ai ah tok to na sak hoi moe, Israel kaminawk hma ah Kai kaciim ah nang suem hoi ai pongah,
