¹Israelmite Aw, ngaikhia un: nou sanga thupijaw leh thilhihtheijaw namte, khopi van suna kulh daikaihte leh thupi luah dingin tuniin Jordan galkaha, na kuan ding uh ahi.

¹Hear, O Israel: Thou art to pass over Jordan this day, to go in to possess nations greater and mightier than thyself, cities great and fenced up to heaven,

²Mi lian leh sang, Anak suante, amau, Anak suante maah kua a ding thei dia? A chih uh na theih uh, leh na jaksa uh.

²A people great and tall, the children of the Anakims, whom thou knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand before the children of Anak!

³Huaijiakin TOUPA na Pathian uh katmanghat mei banga na ma ua paijel ahi chih tuniin thei un; aman amaute a hihmang dinga, a honhihniam sak ding; huchiin TOUPAN na kiang ua gensa bangin, amau na delhkhe ding ua, na hihmang pah ding uh.

³Understand therefore this day, that the LORD thy God is he which goeth over before thee; as a consuming fire he shall destroy them, and he shall bring them down before thy face: so shalt thou drive them out, and destroy them quickly, as the LORD hath said unto thee.

⁴TOUPA na Pathian un a hondelhkhiak sak khit chiang in, I diktatna jiaka hiailuah ding TOUPAN honpi lut ahi, na lungsim un chi kei hial un; hiai namte a gitlouh jiakun ahi jaw, TOUPAN a hon delhkhiak sak sin.

⁴Speak not thou in thine heart, after that the LORD thy God hath cast them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness the LORD hath brought me in to possess this land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD doth drive them out from before thee.

⁵Na diktat jiak uhiam, na lungsim uh dik jiak hiamin, a gam uh na luah sin kei ua, hiai namte gitlouh jiak leh TOUPAN napu Abraham te, Isaak te, Jakob te kianga a kichiamna hihkip dingin TOUPA na Pathian un amau a hondelhkhiak sak ahi jaw hi.

⁵Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thine heart, dost thou go to possess their land: but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may perform the word which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

⁶Huaijiakin hiai agam hoih mahmah na diktat jiak ua luah dingin TOUPAN a honpia ahi kei chih thei un; nam paupeng pi lah na hi ngal ua.

⁶Understand therefore, that the LORD thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked people.

⁷Gamdaia TOUPA na hehsak nakdante uh theigige unla, mangngilh kei un; Aigupta gam akipan na pawt ni ua kipanin hiai mun na hongtun tan un TOUPA tunga helhat na hi uh.

⁷Remember, and forget not, how thou provokedst the LORD thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou didst depart out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, ye have been rebellious against the LORD.

⁸Horebah leng TOUPA na hihheh ua, nou honhihmang khop hial dingin TOUPA a heha.

⁸Also in Horeb ye provoked the LORD to wrath, so that the LORD was angry with you to have destroyed you.

⁹Suangpek, na kiang ua TOUPAN thu a khunna suangpek la dinga tanga ka vahoh touh laiin ni sawmli leh jan sawmli tangah ka vaoma; tanghou lah ka ne keia, tui leng ka dawn sam kei hi.

⁹When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant which the LORD made with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty nights, I neither did eat bread nor drink water:

¹⁰Huan, TOUPAN suangpek nih, Pathian khut zunga gelh a honpiaa; huaiah na kikhop khawm ni ua tang tunga mei akipana TOUPAn na kiang ua thu a gen tengteng a tuang hi.

¹⁰And the LORD delivered unto me two tables of stone written with the finger of God; and on them was written according to all the words, which the LORD spake with you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly.

¹¹Huan, ni sawmli leh jan sawmli khitin hichi ahia, suangpek nih, huai thukhunna suangpek a honpia hi.

¹¹And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that the LORD gave me the two tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant.

¹²Huan, TOUPAN ka kiangah, Thou inla. Hiai akipan pai suk mengin, Aigupta gam akipana napikhiak na mite a kihihgawp khin uhi; zuih dinga thu ka honpiak lampi akipan a pial manhial uh, milim sun tawm a kibawl maimah uhi, a chi a.

¹²And the LORD said unto me, Arise, get thee down quickly from hence; for thy people which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt have corrupted themselves; they are quickly turned aside out of the way which I commanded them; they have made them a molten image.

¹³Huan, TOUPAN, Hiai mite ka etet leh, ngaiin, nam paupeng ahi uh;

¹³Furthermore the LORD spake unto me, saying, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:

¹⁴Amau hihmang ding leh van nuaia pat a min uh git mang dingin ka hihhihin ka hih mai ding: huan, nang amau sanga nam thilhihthei leh thupijawin ka honbawl ding, chiin leng a honhoupih lai hi.

¹⁴Let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under heaven: and I will make of thee a nation mightier and greater than they.

¹⁵Huchiin tang akipan ka kiheia, ka pai suka, tang a kang taa; thukhunna suangpek nihte ka khut lang nihin ka tawia.

¹⁵So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount burned with fire: and the two tables of the covenant were in my two hands.

¹⁶Huan, ka ena, ngai un, TOUPA na Pathian uh tungah na nakhialta uh; bawngnou lim sun tawm na nakibawl ua; TOUPAn thu a honpiak lampi akipanin na pial manhial uh.

¹⁶And I looked, and, behold, ye had sinned against the LORD your God, and had made you a molten calf: ye had turned aside quickly out of the way which the LORD had commanded you.

¹⁷Huan, suangpek nihte ka doma, ka khut lang nih apat ka pai a, na mitmuh un ka hihkhama.

¹⁷And I took the two tables, and cast them out of my two hands, and brake them before your eyes.

¹⁸Huan, tumaa ka hih bangin ni sawmli leh jan sawmli TOUPA maah ka khupboha; amah hihheh dinga TOUPA mitmuha na thilhih khelhsa uh nakhelhna tengteng uh jiakin tanghou leng ka ne keia, tui leng ka dawn sam kei hi.

¹⁸And I fell down before the LORD, as at the first, forty days and forty nights: I did neither eat bread, nor drink water, because of all your sins which ye sinned, in doing wickedly in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.

¹⁹Nou honhihmang dinga TOUPA hehna, a thangpaihna leh lungkimlouhna mahmah lah ka lau ngala. Himahleh huai laiin leng TOUPAN ka thu a honngaihkhiak saka.

¹⁹For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure, wherewith the LORD was wroth against you to destroy you. But the LORD hearkened unto me at that time also.

²⁰Huan, TOUPA bel Aron hihmang nuam hial khopin aheha; himahleh Aron mahleng ka thum sak pah ngala.

²⁰And the LORD was very angry with Aaron to have destroyed him: and I prayed for Aaron also the same time.

²¹Na khelhna uh jiaka nabawl uh bawngnou lim ka laa, ka hala, ka satjana, leivui bangin ka gawi nel dimdema; huan, a nel tang akipana lui hong luangah ka pai.

²¹And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, and ground it very small, even until it was as small as dust: and I cast the dust thereof into the brook that descended out of the mount.

²²Tabera khawngah, Masa khawngah, Kibrot-hatava khawngah leng TOUPA n ahihheh uh.

²²And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibrothhattaavah, ye provoked the LORD to wrath.

²³Huan, TOUPAN, Ka hon gam piak valuah un, chia Kades-barnea akipan a honsawl laiin TOUPA na Pathian uh thupiak nahel san ua, amah na um kei ua, a aw lah na ngaikhe sam kei uhi.

²³Likewise when the LORD sent you from Kadeshbarnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you; then ye rebelled against the commandment of the LORD your God, and ye believed him not, nor hearkened to his voice.

²⁴Kon theih tunga kipanin TOUPA tunga hel hat mi na hi gige ua.

²⁴Ye have been rebellious against the LORD from the day that I knew you.

²⁵Huchiin TOUPAN, Ka hihmang sin, a honchih jiakin TOUPA maah ka khupboh a, Ni sawmli leh zan sawmli ka khup boh hi.

²⁵Thus I fell down before the LORD forty days and forty nights, as I fell down at the first; because the LORD had said he would destroy you.

²⁶Huan, TOUPA kiangah ka thuma, TOUPA Pathian aw. Na thupinaa tat, khuthat taka Aigupta gam akipana na tat khiak, namite leh na goutante hihmang ken.

²⁶I prayed therefore unto the LORD, and said, O Lord GOD, destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed through thy greatness, which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand.

²⁷Na sikha Abraham te, Isaak te, Jakob te theigige inla, hiai mite a phengphitdan uh, a gitlouhdan te uh a khelh dante uh en ken:

²⁷Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; look not unto the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin:

²⁸Huchilouinjaw na honpi khiakna gama miten, TOUPAN a gam chiama a pi theih louh jiak leh amuhdah jiakin gamdaiah thah dingin a pikhia, a chi kha dinguh.Na thilhihtheihna thupi tak leh na ban jaka na pi khiak, na mite leh na goutante lah ahi vanglak ngal ua, ka chi hi.

²⁸Lest the land whence thou broughtest us out say, Because the LORD was not able to bring them into the land which he promised them, and because he hated them, he hath brought them out to slay them in the wilderness.

²⁹Na thilhihtheihna thupi tak leh na ban jaka na pi khiak, na mite leh na goutante lah ahi vanglak ngal ua, ka chi hi.

²⁹Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest out by thy mighty power and by thy stretched out arm.
