Ezekiel 28
1 BOEIPA ol te kai taengah ha pawk tih,
Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
2 “Hlang capa aw, Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he Tyre rhaengsang taengah thui pah. Na lungbuei sang tih, ‘Kai la pathen, tuipuei tuilung kah pathen tolrhum ah ka ngol,’ na ti. Tedae nang hlang tangkik loh na lungbuei tah pathen lungbuei la na poek cakhaw na pathen moenih.
“Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Your heart is arrogant! You have said, “I am a god! I will sit in the seat of the gods in the heart of the seas!” Even though you are a man and not a god, you make your heart like the heart of a god;
3 Daniel lakah Daniel la na cueih ta te. A kael boeih khaw nang ham a hmuep moenih ko te.
you think that you are wiser than Daniel, and that no secret amazes you!
4 Na cueihnah neh na lungcuei lamloh na thadueng la na saii. Na thakvoh khuiah sui neh cak na hen.
You have made yourself wealthy with wisdom and skill, and obtained gold and silver in your treasuries!
5 Na hnothungnah dongah na cueihnah khaw puh tih na thadueng sai van. Tedae na thadueng dongah na thinko sang.
By great wisdom and by your trading, you have multiplied your wealth, so your heart is arrogant because of your wealth.
6 Na thinko te pathen kah lungbuei bangla na ngai dongah ni ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he he a thui.
Therefore, the Lord Yahweh says this: Because you have made your heart like the heart of a god,
7 Te dongah ni hlanghaeng neh namtom kholong te nang taengla kang khuen he. A cunghang neh na cueihnah sakthen te a khoh uh vetih na omyalnah khaw a poeih ni.
I will therefore bring foreigners against you, terrifying men from other nations. They will bring their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they will profane your splendor.
8 Vaam khuila nang n'suntlak sak uh vetih tuipuei tuilung ah rhok dongkah dueknah neh na duek ni.
They will send you down to the pit, and you will die the death of those who die in the heart of the seas.
9 Nang aka ngawn kah mikhmuh ah, ‘Kai la pathen,’ na ti khaw na ti aya? Nang adam ngawn tah namah aka poeih kut ah na pathen moenih.
Will you truly say, “I am a god” to the face of one who kills you? You are a man and not God, and you will be in the hand of the one who pierces you.
10 Kamah loh ka thui coeng dongah kholong kut ah ni pumdul kah dueknah neh na duek eh. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni,” a ti.
You will die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of foreigners, for I have declared it—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
11 BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk bal tih,
The word of Yahweh came again to me, saying,
12 Hlang capa aw Tyre manghai ham rhahlung phueih pah lamtah amah te thui pah. Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Cueihnah khuengrhueng neh sakthen boeih kah cungkuemnah kutha aka daeng khaw nang ni.
“Son of man, lift up a lament for the king of Tyre and say to him, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
13 Pathen kah dum Eden ah tah lung vang cungkuem te na thoeicamnah tih lungling vaya, lungmik, timsuih, oitha, maihae, minhum khocillung neh tamkuei, na kamrhing neh na rhotak toembael sui hnopai neh nang n'suen khohnin ah ni na khuiah a tawn uh.
You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every precious stone covered you: ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made from gold. It was on the day you were created that they were prepared.
14 Nang tah koelhnah aka thingthung cherubim ni. Te dongah ni Pathen kah cimcaihnah tlang ah nang kang khueh. Hmai lungto lakli ah khaw na om tih na pongpa coeng.
I placed you on the holy mountain of God as the cherub I anointed to guard mankind. You were in the midst of the fiery stones where you walked about.
15 Nang kan suen khohnin lamloh na khuikah dumlai a phoe hil pataeng na longpuei ah na cuemthuek.
You had integrity in your ways from the day you were created until injustice was found within you.
16 Na hnothungnah kah a puhnah lamloh na kotak te kuthlahnah hah tih na tholh. Te dongah ni Pathen kah tlang lamloh nang kam poeih tih hmai lungto lakli lamkah aka thingthung cherubim taeng lamloh nang kam milh sak.
Through your great trade you were filled with violence, and so you sinned. So I threw you out of the mountain of God, as a one who was defiled, and I destroyed you, guardian cherub, and drove you from among the fiery stones.
17 Na sakthen dongah na lungbuei khaw sang tih na cueihnah neh na poci. Na omyalnah dongah ni diklai la manghai rhoek kah mikhmuh ah nang kam voeih tih nang te sawt sak ham nang kang khueh.
Your heart was arrogant with your beauty; you ruined your wisdom because of your splendor. I have sent you down to the earth. I have placed you before kings so they may see you.
18 Na hnothungnah dumlai dongah namah kah thaesainah tah khawk tih na rhokso ni na poeih coeng. Te dongah ni na khui lamloh hmai ka puek sak tih nang n'hlawp. Te vaengah nang aka so boeih kah mikhmuh ah nang te diklai hmaiphu la kang khueh.
Because of your many sins and your dishonest trade, you have defiled your holy places. So I have made fire come out from you; it will consume you. I will turn you into ashes on the earth in the sight of all who look at you.
19 Pilnam khuikah nang aka ming boeih loh nang soah hal uh coeng. Mueirhih la na poeh tanglang tih kumhal duela na phoe pawh,” a ti.
All the ones who knew you among the peoples will shudder at you; they will be horrified, and you will be no more forever.'”
20 BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk bal tih,
Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
21 “Hlang capa aw Sidon te na maelhmai khueh thil lamtah tonghma thil laeh.
“Son of man, set your face against Sidon and prophesy against her.
22 Te vaengah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he thui pah. Kai loh Sidon nang kam pai thil coeng ne. Na kotak khuiah ka thangpom uh vetih BOEIPA kamah tila m'ming uh bitni. Tholhphu te anih soah ka saii vetih a khuiah ka ciim uh bitni.
Say, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I am against you, Sidon! For I will be glorified in your midst so your people will know that I am Yahweh when I execute justice within you. I will be shown to be holy in you.
23 A khuikah duektahaw neh a kawtpoeng ah thii ka tueih vaengah a kaepvai kah cunghang neh a kholung ah a rhok la cungku ni. Te vaengah BOEIPA kamah te m'ming uh bitni.
I will send out a plague in you and blood in your streets, and the slain will fall in your midst. When the sword comes against you from all around, then you will know that I am Yahweh.
24 Te vaengah Israel imkhui ham tangti kah a huet neh hling kah a do khaw om voel mahpawh. A kaepvai boeih lamkah amih aka hnaep long khaw kai he ka Boeipa Yahovah ni tila a ming uh bitni.
Then there will no longer be pricking briars and painful thorns for the house of Israel from all those around her who despise her people, so they will know that I am the Lord Yahweh!'
25 Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Israel imkhui te pilnam lamloh ka coi. Amih taengla taekyak uh cakhaw namtom mikhmuh kah amih taengah ka ciim coeng. Te dongah a khohmuen ah kho a sak uh ni. Te te ka sal Jakob taengah ka paek coeng.
The Lord Yahweh says this, 'When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they were scattered, and when I am set apart among them, so the nations may see, then they will make their homes in the land I will give to my servant Jacob.
26 A khuiah ngaikhuek la hing uh vetih im a sak uh ni. Misur a phung uh vetih ngaikhuek la hing uh ni. A kaepvai lamkah amih aka hnaep boeih soah tholhphu ka suk vaengah kai he BOEIPA a Pathen la a ming uh bitni.
Then they will live securely within her and build houses, plant vineyards, and live securely when I execute justice on all the ones who now despise them from all around; so they will know that I am Yahweh their God!'”
