Ezekiel 13
1 BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk tih,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Hlang capa aw, Israel tonghma tonghma rhoek soah tonghma pah lamtah amamih lungbuei lamkah tonghma rhoek te, “BOEIPA ol hnatun,” ti nah.
Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel, and you shall prophesy, and shall say to them, Hear you the word of the Lord:
3 Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he a thui. Anunae tonghma ang rhoek aih te, amamih mueihla hnuk a vai uh soe tih a hmuh khaw om hae pawh.
Thus says the Lord, Woe to them that prophesy out of their own heart, and who see nothing at all.
4 Israel nang kah tonghma rhoek te imrhong dongkah maetang rhoek bangla om uh coeng.
Your prophets, O Israel, are like foxes in the deserts.
5 A puut te paan uh boeh. BOEIPA khohnin kah caemtloek dongah pai ham Israel im kah vongtung te biing laeh.
They have not continued steadfast, and they have gathered flocks against the house of Israel, they that say,
6 A poeyoek la aka hmu neh laithae bihma loh BOEIPA kah olphong la a thui. BOEIPA loh amih te tueih pawt dae ol thoh ham a ngaiuep uh.
In the day of the Lord, have not stood, seeing false [visions], prophesying vanities, who say, The Lord says, and the Lord has not sent them, and they began [to try] to confirm the word.
7 Mikhlam te a poeyoek la na hmuh uh tih laithae tonghma te na thui uh pawt het nim? BOEIPA kah olphong aka ti rhoek bal khaw kai loh ka uen moenih.
Have you not seen a false vision? and spoken vain prophecies?
8 Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. A poeyoek la na cal uh tih laithae ni na hmuh uh. Te dongah ni kai loh nangmih taengah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong kang khuen.
And therefore say, Thus says the Lord; Because your words are false, and your prophecies are vain, therefore, behold, I am against you, says the Lord.
9 Ka kut loh a poeyoek la aka hmu tonghma rhoek te a om thil vetih ka pilnam kah baecenol khuiah laithae la aka hma rhoek khaw om uh mahpawh. Israel imkhui kah ca dongah khaw daek uh pawt vetih Israel khohmuen ah khaw kun uh mahpawh. Te vaengah kai ka Boeipa Yahovah tila nan ming uh bitni.
And I will stretch forth my hand against the prophets that see false [visions], and those that utter vanities: they shall not partake of the instruction of my people, neither shall they be written in the roll of the house of Israel, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
10 Ka pilnam te a maelh uh dongah ngaimongnah a ti te khaw ngaimongnah hae moenih. Anih loh vong paam sak tih amih loh a kak la a bol uh coeng ke.
Because they have caused my people to err, saying, Peace; and there is no peace; and one builds a wall, and they plaster it, —it shall fall.
11 A rhorhap neh aka bol rhoek te thui pah. Khonal a pai vaengah tim vetih a yo ni. Rhael lung loh nangmih soah cuhu vetih hlipuei khohli loh n'hep ni.
Say to them that plaster [it], It shall fall; and there shall be a flooding rain; and I will send great stones upon their joinings, and they shall fall; and there shall be a sweeping wind, and it shall be broken.
12 Te vaengah nangmih taengah, “Pangbueng cungku coeng ke, thungbok neh na bol te ta?' ti mahpawt nim?
And behold! the wall has fallen; and will they not say to you, Where is your plaster wherewith you plastered [it]?
13 Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Ka kosi ah hlipuei khohli ka tueih vetih ka thintoek ah khonal kah a yo neh a bawtnah te kosi kah rhael lung ham om bini.
Therefore thus says the Lord; I will even cause to burst forth a sweeping blast with fury, and there shall be a flooding rain in my wrath; and in [my] fury I will bring on great stones for complete destruction.
14 A rhorhap la abol pangbueng te ka koengloeng vetih diklai la ka nolh ni. Tedae a khoengim a poelyoe tih a cungku vaengah amah lakli ah n'khah uh ni. Te vaengah BOEIPA kamah te nan ming uh bitni.
And I will break down the wall which you have plastered, and it shall fall; and I will lay it on the ground, and its foundations shall be discovered, and it shall fall; and you shall be consumed with rebukes: and you shall know that I am the Lord.
15 Ka kosi he pangbueng taeng neh a rhorhap aka bol taengah ka hong eh. Tedae nangmih te, “Pangbueng pawt tih aka bol bal moenih,” ka ti ni.
And I will accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and upon them that plaster it; it shall fall: and I said to you, The wall is not, nor they that plaster it,
16 Jerusalem taengah aka tonghma Israel tonghma rhoek neh ngaimongnah mangthui a hmuh dae ngaimongnah moenih. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni.
even the prophets of Israel, who prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and who see [visions of] peace for her, and there is no peace, says the Lord.
17 Hlang capa nang loh na pilnam nu te na maelhmai khueh thil. Amih amamih lungbuei lamloh aka tonghma khaw hlang rhoek khaw tonghma thil.
And you, son of man, set your face firmly against the daughters of your people, that prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy against them.
18 Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he thui pah. Anunae kai kut sukvai tom ah luhoe aka hui tih hinglu mae ham a songsang cungkuem neh a lu dongkah lumuekhni aka saii rhoek aih. Ka pilnam kah hinglu na mae cakhaw namah kah hinglu tah na hing venim?
And you shall say, Thus says the Lord, Woe to the [women] that sew pillows under every elbow, and make kerchiefs on the head of every stature to pervert souls! The souls of my people are perverted, and they have saved souls alive.
19 Cangtun kutpha yet ham te ka pilnam taengah kai nan poeih uh. A duek pawt koi khaw buh kamat ham hinglu na duek sakuh. Hinglu a hing ham vaengah laithae aka hnatun ka pilnam te nangmih kah laithae loh hing sak pawh.
And they have dishonored me before my people for a handful of barley, and for pieces of bread, to kill the souls which should not die, and to save alive the souls which should not live, while you speak to a people hearing vain speeches.
20 Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Nangmih kah luhoe te ka pai thil coeng ne. Te nen ni nangmih loh aka phuelh bangla hinglu te pahoi na mae uh. Tedae te te nangmih ban dong lamloh ka phen vetih hinglu te ka hlah ni. Te hinglu te nangmih loh aka phuelh bangla na mae uh.
Therefore thus says the Lord God, Behold, I am against your pillows, whereby you there confound souls, and I will tear them away from your arms, and will set at liberty their souls which you pervert to scatter them.
21 Na lumuekhni te ka phen vetih ka pilnam te na kut lamloh ka huul ni. Te daengah ni na kut dongkah rhalvong la koep om uh pawt vetih BOEIPA kamah te nan ming uh eh.
And I will tear your kerchiefs, and will rescue my people out of your hands, and they shall no longer be in your hands to be confounded; and you shall know that I am the Lord.
22 Laithae loh aka dueng kah lungbuei a paeng sak. Kai loh anih thak ka khoeih sak pawt tih halang kut ka moem pah dongah nim amah a hing ham a boethae longpuei lamloh a mael pawh.
Because you have perverted the heart of the righteous, whereas I perverted him not, and [that] in order to strengthen the hands of the wicked, that he should not at all turn from his evil way and live:
23 Te dongah a poeyoek la na hmu uh pawt vetih bihma khaw koep hma mahpawh. Ka pilnam te na kut lamloh ka huul vaengah BOEIPA kamah te nan ming uh bitni,” a ti.
therefore you shall not see false [visions], and you shall no more utter prophecies: but I will deliver my people out of your hand; and you shall know that I am the Lord.
