¹Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

¹Huan, TOUPA'N Mosi a houpih a,

²“Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded,

²Aron leh a tapate leh Israel suante tengteng houpih inla, a kiang uah, Hiai TOUPA thupiak ahi:

³Whatever man there is of the house of Israel, who kills a bull, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or who kills it outside the camp,

³Israel innko lak a mi himhim bawngpa hiam, belamnou hiam, kel hiam giahmun hiam, dainawl hiam a gou a,

⁴and hasn’t brought it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to offer it as an offering to Yahweh before the tabernacle of Yahweh: blood shall be imputed to that man. He has shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people.

⁴TOUPA biakbuk ma a TOUPA a ding a thillat ding a kihoupihna puan inn kongpi bul a hon tawilou peuhmah, huai mi sisan suah a ngaih ahi ding; sisan suah ngei ahi, huai zaw a chipihte lak a kipan tuamkoih a om ding ahi.

⁵This is to the end that the children of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, that they may bring them to Yahweh, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to the priest, and sacrifice them for sacrifices of peace offerings to Yahweh.

⁵Huaibel, Israel suante'n a kithoihnate uh, gamlak a kithoihnate uh a honlak ua, TOUPA a ding ngei a kihoupihna puan inn kongpi bul a, siampu kiang a ahon lak ua, TOUPA a dia lemna thillat kithoihna ding a kithoihna theihna ding uh ahi.

⁶The priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of Yahweh at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and burn the fat for a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.

⁶Huan, siampu in kihoupihna puan inn kongpi bul a maitam sisan in a theh ding a, a thau TOUPA ding in gimlim tak in a hal ding ahi.

⁷They shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices to the goat idols, after which they play the prostitute. This shall be a statute forever to them throughout their generations.’

⁷A angkawm sekna uh kelpa kiang a a kithoih nawn ding uh ahi ta kei, chih pen. Hiai bel a suante uh zel tan a khantawn ding dan ding ahi.

⁸“You shall say to them, ‘Any man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice,

⁸Huan, a kiang uah, Israel innko mi himhim hiam, gamdang mi a lak ua tengte hiam in haltum thillat hiam, kithoihna hiam,

⁹and doesn’t bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to sacrifice it to Yahweh; that man shall be cut off from his people.

⁹TOUPA kiang a kithoihna ding a kihoupihna puan inn kongpi bul a hon tawilou a om uleh huai mi a chipihte lak a kipan tuamkoih a om ding ahi.

¹⁰“‘Any man of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who eats any kind of blood, I will set my face against that soul who eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people.

¹⁰Huan, kuapeuh Israel innko lak mi hiam, gamdang mi a lak ua teng hiam, bang sisan leng ne peuhmah, huai sisan ne mi tungah ka mai ka gumsak ding a, a chipihte lak a kipan in tuamkoih in ka omsak ding.

¹¹For the life of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that makes atonement by reason of the life.

¹¹Sa hinna pen sisan ah a om ngal a: na hinna ding ua kilemna bawl ding a maitam tung a nou ka hon piak ahi: hinna ding a kilemna bawlna pen sisan mahmah lah ahi ngal a.

¹²Therefore I have said to the children of Israel, “No person among you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger who lives as a foreigner among you eat blood.”

¹²Huaiziak in Israel suante kiang ah, Kuamah in sisan na ne ding uh ahikei, gamdang na lak ua teng in leng sisan a ne ding uh ahi samkei, ka chi ahi.

¹³“‘Whatever man there is of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners among them, who takes in hunting any animal or bird that may be eaten; he shall pour out its blood, and cover it with dust.

¹³Huan, Israel suante lak mi hiam, gamdang mi a lak ua teng hiam, gam va vak a sa hiam, vasa hiam a, nektheih chi a hon tut leh a sisan a pawt ding a, leivui a a vuh ding ahi.

¹⁴For as to the life of all flesh, its blood is with its life: therefore I said to the children of Israel, “You shall not eat the blood of any kind of flesh; for the life of all flesh is its blood. Whoever eats it shall be cut off.”

¹⁴Sa tengteng hinna thu ah a sisan leh a hinna kibang geih ahi; huaiziak in Israel suante kiang ah, Bang sa sisan mawngmawng na ne ding uh ahi kei, sa tengteng hinna a sisan ahi ngal a; kuapeuh a nene tuamkoih a om ding ahi.

¹⁵“‘Every person that eats what dies of itself, or that which is torn by animals, whether he is native-born or a foreigner, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening: then he shall be clean.

¹⁵Huan, amah sisih a si hiam, sa keih hiam nene, huai gam a mi him hiam leng hi hen aw, a puan uh a sawp ding ua, a kisil ding uh ahi, nitak lam tan in a nin ding ua; huaizoh in a hong siangthou ta ding uh.A sawp kei ua a kisil kei ngial uleh houh a thulimlouhna moh a po ding uh ahi, ka chi hi, chi in, chi in.

¹⁶But if he doesn’t wash them, or bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.’”

¹⁶A sawp kei ua a kisil kei ngial uleh houh a thulimlouhna moh a po ding uh ahi, ka chi hi, chi in, chi in.
