King James Version with Apocrypha
Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them , that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers giveth you.
1Israel aw oltlueh neh laitloeknah te hnatun laeh. Te te vai hamla nangmih kan cang puei. Te daengah ni na hing uh tih na pha uh vaengah khaw na pa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA loh nangmih taengah m'paek khohmuen te na pang uh eh.
2Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
2Kai loh nangmih kang uen olka he thap khaw thap uh boeh, hlaek khaw hlaek uh boeh. Na BOEIPA Pathen kah olpaek, nangmih kang uen te ngaithuen uh.
3Your eyes have seen what the LORD did because of Baal-peor: for all the men that followed Baal-peor, the LORD thy God hath destroyed them from among you.
3Baalpeor ah BOEIPA loh a saii te na mik loh a hmuh uh coeng. Baalpeor hnukah aka cet hlang boeih te na BOEIPA Pathen loh nangmih khui lamkah a mitmoeng sak coeng.
4But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God are alive every one of you this day.
4Tedae na BOEIPA Pathen aka ben nangmih tah tihnin due boeih na hing uh.
5Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it.
5So lah, nangmih te ka Pathen BOEIPA loh kai n'uen bangla oltlueh neh laitloeknah kan cang puei. Te te pang hamla pahoi aka kun nangmih loh tekah khohmuen khui ah vai uh.
6Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.
6Pilnam kah mikhmuh ah na cueihnah neh na yakmingnah ham khaw he he ngaithuen uh lamtah vai uh. Tekah oltlueh boeih te a yaak uh vaengah, 'Hekah Pilnam bueng ni aka cueih tih aka thuep pilnu la aka om he,’ a ti uh ni.
7For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him for ?
7Amah te mamih loh n'khue uh takuem ah mamih kah BOEIPA Pathen bangla aka hmaiben pathen te mebang pilnu ham lae a om eh.
8And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?
8Tihnin kah nangmih mikhmuh ah ka tloeng olkhueng boeih bangla aka dueng oltlueh neh laitloeknah he mebang pilnu ham bal lae?
9Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons’ sons;
9Tedae namah te ngaithuen uh lamtah na hinglu khaw rhep ngaithuen. Na mik loh a hmuh hno te koeloe na hnilh ve, na hing tue khuiah na thinko lamloh nong ve. Te dongah na ca rhoek taeng neh na ca rhoek kah a ca rhoek taengah ming sak.
10Specially the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me, Gather me the people together, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children.
10Na BOEIPA Pathen mikhmuh ah na pai vaeng hnin ah BOEIPA loh Horeb ah, 'Pilnam te kamah taengah tingtun sak. Khohmuen kah mulhing rhoek loh a tue khuiah kai n'rhih uh ham kamah kah olka ka yaak sak vanbangla n'tukkil uh saeh lamtah a ca rhoek te tukkil uh saeh,’ a ti.
11And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness.
11Tedae na pawk uh tih tlang yung kah na pai uh vaengah tlang te hmai la alh tih vaan lungui te cingmai neh yinnah loh a hmuep sak.
12And the LORD spake unto you out of the midst of the fire: ye heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude; only ye heard a voice.
12Te vaengah nangmih te BOEIPA loh hmai khui lamkah m'voek. A olcal ol te na yaak uh ngawn dae a ol bueng mai ni,A muei aka hmuh na om uh moenih.
13And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.
13Te vaengah nangmih loh na vai uh ham ol lungrha n'uen te amah kah paipi la nangmih taengah a doek tih lungto lungpael panit dongah a daek.
14¶ And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it.
14Te dongah nangmih tukkil ham koi oltlueh neh nangmih loh na kun uh tih na pang uh ham koi khohmuen ah na vai uh ham laitloeknah khaw amah tekah khohnin ah ni BOEIPA loh kai n'uen pueng.
15Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day that the LORD spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire:
15Horeb ah BOEIPA loh hmai khui lamkah nangmih m'voek hnin vaengah a muei boeih na hmuh uh pawt dongah na hinglu te mat na ngaithuen uh.
16Lest ye corrupt yourselves , and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
16Na poci uh vetih huta tongpa muei dongkah mueimae boeih,
17The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air,
17Diklai dongkah rhamsa boeih kah a muei, vaan ah a phae neh aka ding vaa boeih kah a muei khaw,
18The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth:
18diklai dongah aka colh boeih kah a muei, diklai hmui ah tui khuikah nga boeih kah muei khaw, nangmih ham mueithuk muei la na saii uh ve.
19And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.
19Na mik te vaan la na huel ve. Khomik, hla, aisi neh vaan caempuei boeih ke na hmuh vaengah na BOEIPA Pathen loh vaan hmui boeih kah pilnam rhoek boeih ham a hmoel taengah thothueng hamla na bakop thil vetih n'heh ve.
20But the LORD hath taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, even out of Egypt, to be unto him a people of inheritance, as ye are this day.
20Tedae tahae khohnin kah bangla amah taengah rho aka pang pilnam la om sak ham ni nangmih te BOEIPA loh Egypt thi hmai-ulh khui lamkah n'loh tih n'khuen.
21Furthermore the LORD was angry with me for your sakes, and sware that I should not go over Jordan, and that I should not go in unto that good land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance:
21Tedae nangmih kah olka dongah BOEIPA te kai taengah a thintoek. Te dongah Jordan ka lan pawt ham neh na BOEIPA Pathen loh nang taengah rho la m'paek khohmuen then khuiah kun pawt ham ol a caeng.
22But I must die in this land, I must not go over Jordan: but ye shall go over, and possess that good land.
22Kai tah hekah khohmuen ah ka duek vetih, Jordan te ka kat voel mahpawh. Tedae nangmih kat uh lamtah khohmuen then te pang uh.
23Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image, or the likeness of any thing , which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee.
23Nangmih te ngaithuen uh , na Pathen BOEIPA loh nangmih taengah a saii paipi te na hnilh uh vetih na Pathen BOEIPA loh nang n'uen bangla a cungkuem muei kah mueithuk te namamih ham na saii uh ve.
24For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.
24Na BOEIPA Pathen tah thatlai Pathen la om tih hmai bangla n'hlawp thai.
25¶ When thou shalt beget children, and children’s children, and ye shall have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt yourselves , and make a graven image, or the likeness of any thing , and shall do evil in the sight of the LORD thy God, to provoke him to anger:
25Ca na sak uh tih ca rhoek kah ca rhoek khaw khohmuen ah na ih nahnut ah na poci uh tih a cungkuem muei kah mueithuk te na saii uh atah, amah te veet hamla na Pathen BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae ni na saii uh.
26I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.
26Tihnin ah Jordan aka kat nangmih te khohmuen dong lamkah koeloe na milh rhoe na milh ham te vaan neh diklai he nangmih taengah kan laipai sak coeng. Khohmuen na pang uh cakhaw na khohnin loh sen uh pawt vetih a mit rhoe la na mit uh ni.
27And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD shall lead you.
27Pilnam rhoek lakli ah nangmih te BOEIPA loh n'taekyaak vetih hlang sii la aka cul te khaw namtom taengla na BOEIPA loh m'vai ni.
28And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
28Te vaengah hlang kut loh lungto thingngo neh a sai pathen, aka hmu mueh, aka ya thai mueh, aka ca thai mueh neh aka him thai mueh te ni tho na thueng thil eh.
29But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him , if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
29Na Pathen BOEIPA te tekah khohmuen lamkah na thuep uh tih na thinko boeih, na hinglu boeih neh na tlap atah na hmuh van ni.
30When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice;
30Vuenvai ah nang ham khobing tih hekah olka boeih loh nang taengla ha pawk uh vaengah na BOEIPA Pathen taengla na bal vetih a ol te na yaak atah,
31(For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them.
31na Pathen BOEIPA he thinphoei Pathen la a om dongah nang te n'rhael pawt vetih m'phae mahpawh. Na pa rhoek taengah a caeng paipi te khaw hnilh mahpawh.
32For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and ask from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been any such thing as this great thing is , or hath been heard like it?
32Diklai dongah Pathen loh hlang a suen khohnin lamloh na mikhmuh ah aka om hnukbuet tue te dawt laeh. Te dongah vaan khobawt lamkah vaan khobawt duela tahae kah hno len bangla om vai nim? Te bang te n'yaak vai nim?
33Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?
33Hmai khui lamkah a thui Pathen kah ol te nang loh na yaak bangla pilnam loh a yaak tih a hing puei van nim?
34Or hath God assayed to go and take him a nation from the midst of another nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?
34Na Pathen BOEIPA loh Egypt ah nangmih ham na mikhmuh ah a saii bangla namtom khui lamkah namtom te amah ham aka lo la a paan tih noemcainah neh, miknoek neh, kopoekrhai neh, caemtloek neh, tlungluen kut neh, ban lam neh, rhimomnah tangkik neh a tloe pathen loh a noemcai a?
35Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that the LORD he is God; there is none else beside him.
35BOEIPA Pathen amah phoeiah a tloe Pathen om pawh tila ming sak ham nang n'tueng coeng.
36Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might instruct thee: and upon earth he shewed thee his great fire; and thou heardest his words out of the midst of the fire.
36Nangmih toel ham ni a ol te vaan lamloh nang n'yaak sak. Diklai dongah khaw amah kah hmai puei te nang n'tueng coeng dongah amah kah olka te hmai khui lamkah na yaak coeng.
37And because he loved thy fathers, therefore he chose their seed after them, and brought thee out in his sight with his mighty power out of Egypt;
37Na pa rhoek te khaw a lungnah dongah ni a hnukkah a tiingan te khaw a coelh tih a mikhmuh ah a thadueng a len neh Egypt lamloh nang n'khuen.
38To drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier than thou art , to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an inheritance, as it is this day.
38Amah tihnin kah bangla nang mawt ham neh amih kah khohmuen te nang taengah rho la paek ham rhoe ni nang lakah aka len neh pilnu namtom te na mikhmuh lamloh a haek.
39Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the LORD he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.
39Te dongah tihnin ah ming lamtah na thinko khui ah dueh laeh. BOEIPA Pathen amah bang he vaan so ah khaw, diklai hman neh a khui ah khaw a om bal moenih.
40Thou shalt keep therefore his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days upon the earth, which the LORD thy God giveth thee, for ever.
40Namah neh na hnukkah na ca rhoek khaw khophoeng a pha van ham tah tihnin ah kai loh nang kang uen oltlueh neh olpaek he ngaithuen. Te daengah ni BOEIPA na Pathen loh na hing tue khui boeih ham nang m'paek khohmuen ah na hinglung a vang eh?,’ a ti.
41¶ Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan toward the sunrising;
41Te vaengah Moses loh khomik khocuk la aka dan uh Jordan rhalvangan kah khopuei pathum te a hoep tih,
42That the slayer might flee thither, which should kill his neighbour unawares, and hated him not in times past; and that fleeing unto one of these cities he might live:
42U khaw a ming mueh neh hlaem hlavai lamkah a taengah a hmuhuet mueh mai ah a hui te a ngawn atah tekah hlang aka ngawn loh a rhaelrham vaengah te tekah khopuei khat khat la rhaelrham sak tih hinglu hlawt sak ham,
43Namely , Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, of the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, of the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan, of the Manassites.
43Reuben koca kah tlangkol khohmuen, khosoek ah Bezer neh, Gad koca kah Gilead ah Ramoth khaw, Manasseh koca kah Bashan ah Golan te a hoep.
44¶ And this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel:
44Hekah olkhueng he Israel ca rhoek kah mikhmuh ah Moses loh a khueh pah tih,
45These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Moses spake unto the children of Israel, after they came forth out of Egypt,
45Hekah olphong neh oltlueh khaw laitloeknah he khaw Egypt lamkah halo vaengah Israel ca rhoek taengah Moses loh a uen.
46On this side Jordan, in the valley over against Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, after they were come forth out of Egypt:
46Moses neh Israel ca rhoek loh Egypt lamkah halo vaengah Jordan rhalvang, Bethpeor imdan kolrhawk khuikah neh Sihon khohmuen dongkah Heshbon ah aka om Amori manghai te a tloek tih,
47And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, which were on this side Jordan toward the sunrising;
47amah khohmuen la, khomik khocuk Jordan rhalvang kah Amori manghai rhoi neh Bashan manghai Oga kah khohmuen,
48From Aroer, which is by the bank of the river Arnon, even unto mount Sion, which is Hermon,
48Arnon soklong tuikung Aroer lamkah Hermon kah Siyon tlang due,
49And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward, even unto the sea of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah.
49Jordan rhalvang khocuk benkah kolken pum neh Pisgah tuibah hmuikah kolken tuitunli due pataeng a huul uh.
