< Ezekiel 25 >
1 BOEIPA ol kai taengla ha pawk tih,
[Some time later, ] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
2 “Hlang capa aw, Ammon koca rhoek te na maelhmai khueh thil lamtah amih te tonghma thil.
“You human, turn toward where the Ammon people- [lives], and prophesy [what will happen to] them.
3 Ammon ca rhoek te thui pah lamtah ka Boeipa Yahovah ol te ya uh saeh. Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Ahuei, ka rhokso a poeih coeng tih Israel khohmuen te pong coeng, Judah imkhui te vangsawn la cet coeng,” na ti.
Say about them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “You shouted joyfully when my [in Jerusalem] was destroyed, and when the country/land of Israel was ruined, and when the people of Judah were (exiled/forced to go) [to Babylonia].
4 Te dongah nang te khothoeng koca taengah khoh la kam paek coeng ne. Nangmih lakli ah a lumim a ngol sak uh vetih a tolhmuen na taengah a khueh uh ni. Amih loh na thaih a caak vetih amih loh na suktui a ok uh ni.
Therefore, I am going to allow you to be conquered by people [who will come] from the east. They will set up their tents in your country and live there. And they will eat the fruit from [fruit trees] and drink the [from your cattle].
5 Rabbah te kalauk tolkhoeng la, Ammon koca rhoek te boiva kah a kolhmuen la ka khueh vaengah BOEIPA kamah he nan ming uh bitni.
I will [your capital city] Rabbah to become a pasture for camels, and the rest of Ammon to [only] a resting place for sheep. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
6 Te dongah ah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Kut na paeng tih kho neh na daep. Hinglu dongkah na uetnah cungkuem neh Israel khohmuen na kokhahnah thil.
This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: “You clapped your [joyfully] and stomped your feet, and laughed because you despised [the people in] the land of Israel.
7 Te dongah ka kut he nang kan thueng thil vetih nang te namtom taengah maeh la kam mop ni ne. Nang pilnam lamloh kan saii vetih diklai lamloh nang kam milh sak ni. Nang kam mitmoeng sak vaengah BOEIPA kamah he nan ming bitni.
Therefore, I will use my power [MTY] against you, and I will enable [other] nations [conquer you and] take away your valuable possessions. I will destroy you completely [DOU], with the result that you no longer will be a nation. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
8 Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. “Moab neh Seir khaw Judah im kah namtom cungkuem banghui ni ke,” na ti nama.
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[The people of] [south of Ammon] and [the people of] [south of Moab despised Israel and] said, ‘The people [MTY] of Israel have [as unimportant] as all the other nations!’
9 Te dongah Bethjeshimoth khohmuen kah kirhang, Moab tlanghlaep Baalmeon Kiriathaim neh Kiriathaim khaw khopuei lamloh a khopuei patoeng a khobawt duela ka lim coeng he.
Therefore, I will destroy the cities that protect the borders of Moab, starting at Beth-Jeshimoth, Baal-Meon, and Kiriathaim, the finest cities in Moab.
10 Ammon koca te Khothoeng koca taengah khoh la ka paek van coeng. Te daengah ni Ammon koca rhoek te namtom lakli ah a poek pawt eh.
I will enable people from the east to conquer Moab and also to conquer Ammon. As a result, [I will cause that] Ammon will no longer be remembered by other nations.
11 Moab te tholhphu ka suk vaengah BOEIPA kamah he m'ming uh bitni.
I will also punish [the people of] Moab. When that happens, they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
12 Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Edom loh Judah imkhui ah phulohnah neh phu a loh. Tedae amih soah phu a loh khaw a boe lamni a boe coeng.
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[You people of] Edom are guilty of getting revenge on the people [MTY] of Judah.
13 Te dongah ka Boeipa loh Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Edom taengah ka kut ka thueng vetih a khui lamkah hlang neh rhamsa te ka saii ni. Te te imrhong la ka khueh vetih Teman lamloh Dedan due khaw cunghang dongah cungku uh ni.
Therefore this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: 'I will use my power against [the people of] Edom and will get rid of their men and their animals. I will ruin the land from Teman [region in central Edom] to Dedan [region in the south of Edom], and many of their men will be killed [their enemies] swords.'
14 Edom sokah ka tawnlohnah te ka pilnam Israel kut ah ka paek vetih ka thintoek tarhing neh ka kosi tarhing ah Edom te a saii uh ni. Te vaengah ka tawnlohnah te a ming uh bitni. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni.
The Israeli people will use their power [MTY] to get revenge on [the people of] Edom. They will show [the people of] Edom that I have been angry with them, and I will punish [MTY] them. The people of Edom will experience my getting revenge on them. Then they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
15 Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Philisti te tawnlohnah neh saii ham coeng dongah a hinglu kah uetnah neh, khosuen kah thunkha thunhling kutcaihnah neh phulohnah te phu a loh uh.
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “The Philistia people-group wanted very much to get revenge [on the people of Judah]. They very maliciously wanted to destroy [Judah].
16 Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Kai loh Philisti soah ka kut ka thueng thil coeng. Kerethi te ka saii vetih tuipuei langkaeng kah a meet khaw ka milh sak ni.
Therefore this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: I am about to use my power [MTY] against the Philistia people. I will get rid of the Kereth people-group and all [those who live along] the coast of the [Mediterranean] Sea.
17 Tawnlohnah tanglue te amih soah kosi kah toelthamnah neh ka saii vaengah BOEIPA kamah he m'ming uh bitni. Kai kah tawnlohnah he amih soah ka khueh ham om coeng,” a ti.
By the way I punish them, I will get great revenge on them and show that I am angry with them. And when I get revenge on them, they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'”
