< Ezekiel 4 >

1 Kami capa, kangphaek daek amlai long to la ah, na hma ah suem ah loe, a nuiah Jerusalem, vangpui krang to soi ah;
And you, son of man, take you a brick, and you shall set it before your face, and shall portray on it the city, [even] Jerusalem.
2 vangpui to takui ah, misa buephaih im to sah ah loe, sipae to thungah; misatuh kaminawk to pakhueng ah loe, a taengah thing abumnawk to suem boih ah.
And you shall besiege it, and build works against it, and throw up a mound round about it, and pitch camps against it, and set up engines round about.
3 To pacoengah nangmah hoi vangpui salakah, sum sipae to thung ah; na mikhmai vangpui bangah anghae hmah, to tiah na takui baktih toengah, vang pui takui khoephaih to om tih. Hae loe Israel imthung takoh hanah angmathaih ah om tih.
And take you to yourself an iron pan, and you shall set it [for] an iron wall between you and the city: and you shall set your face against it, and it shall be in a siege, and you shall besiege it. This is a sign to the children of Israel.
4 Banqoi bangah angqoi ah loe, angsong ah, a nuiah Isarael imthung takoh zaehaih to amtii ah; to tiah nang songhaih ni zetto nihcae zaehaih to na phaw tih.
And you shall lie upon your left side, and lay the iniquities of the house of Israel upon it, according to the number of the hundred and fifty days [during] which you shall lie upon it: and you shall bear their iniquities.
5 Ani nambat baktih toengah, nihcae zaehaih saningnawk to na nuiah kam tik boeh; to pongah ni cumvai thum, qui takawtto thung, Israel imthung takoh zaehaih to na phaw tih.
For I have appointed you their iniquities for a number of days, for a hundred and ninety days: so you shall bear the iniquities of the house of Israel.
6 To tiah na sak pacoengah, bantang bangah angqoi ah loe, angsong let ah, vaihi loe Judah imthung takoh zaehaih to ni qui palito thung na phaw tih; nang hanah nito hae saningto ah kang suek pae.
And you shall accomplish this, and [then] shall lie on your right side, and shall bear the iniquities of the house of Juda forty days: I have appointed you a day for a year.
7 To tiah na takui ih Jerusalem to anghae thui ah, ban payangh loe, vangpui misa haih lok to thui ah.
So you shall set your face to the siege of Jerusalem, and shall strengthen your arm, and shall prophesy against it.
8 Khenah, na takuihaih ni boeng ai karoek to, hae bang hoi ho bangah nang qoi thaih han ai ah, qui hoiah kang taoeng han.
And, behold, I have prepared bonds for you, land you may not turn from your one side to the other, until the days of your siege shall be accomplished.
9 Ata dip, barli dip, peh, peh kathim, maket hoi tunhnawk to la ah, laom maeto thungah atok ah loe, takaw to sah ah; panak bang hoi nang songhaih ni, cumvai thum, qui takawtto karoek to takaw to buh ah caa ah.
Take you also to you wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and bread-corn; and you shall cast them into one earthen vessel, and shall make them into loaves for yourself; and you shall eat them a hundred and ninety days, according to the number of the days [during] which you sleep on your side.
10 To takaw to tah ah loe, nito naah shekel pumto caa ah; atue phak naah caa ah.
And you shall eat your food by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shall you eat them.
11 To tiah tui to tah pacoengah, pailang hin vai tarukto ah tapraek ah loe, nae ah; atue phak naah nae ah.
And you shall drink water by measure, even from time to time you shall drink the sixth part of a hin.
12 Barli cang hoi sak ih takaw to buh ah caa ah; Kaminawk mikhnuk ah, kami aek kazaek hoiah takaw to hmai pahai ah, tiah ang naa.
And you shall eat them [as] a barley cake: you shall bake them before their eyes in man's dung.
13 Angraeng mah, Israel kaminawk ka haek ih prae, Gentel kaminawk salakah angmacae mah amhnongsak ih ciimcai ai buh to caa o tih, tiah thuih.
And you shall say, Thus says the Lord God of Israel; Thus shall the children of Israel eat unclean things among the Gentiles.
14 To naah kai mah, Angraeng Sithaw, khenah, ka hinghaih kam hnongsak ai vop, thendoeng nathuem hoi vaihi khoek to, angmah koeh ah kadueh moi, to tih ai boeh loe moi kasan mah kaek ih moi to ka caa vai ai vop; panuet kathok moi roe ka pakha thungah akun vai ai vop, tiah ka naa.
Then I said, Not so, Lord God of Israel: surely my soul has not been defiled with uncleanness; nor have I eaten, that which died of itself or was torn of beasts from my birth until now; neither has any corrupt flesh entered into my mouth.
15 To pacoengah anih mah, Khenah, kami ih aek na ai maitaw aek to kang paek, maitaw aek hoiah takaw to pahai ah, tiah ang naa.
And he said to me, Behold, I have given you dung of oxen instead of man's dung, and you shall prepare your loaves upon it.
16 To pacoengah anih mah kai khaeah, Kami capa, khenah, Jerusalem comhaih takaw to ka boengsak ving han; kaminawk mah buh to tah o ueloe, mawnhaih hoiah caa o tih; tui doeh tah o ueloe, dawnraihaih hoiah nae o tih,
And he said to me, Son of man, behold, I break the support of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight and in lack; and shall drink water by measure, and in a state of ruin:
17 takaw hoi tui khahaih to om tih, maeto hoi maeto dawnraihaih hoiah om o ueloe, angmacae zaehaih pongah dueh o boih tih.
that they may lack bread and water; and a man and his brother shall be brought to ruin, and they shall pine away in their iniquities.
