Ezekiel 29
1 Kum rha dongkah hla rha hnin hlai nit vaengah BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk tih,
In the tenth year, in the tenth [month], in the twelfth [day] of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 “Hlang capa aw, Egypt manghai Pharaoh te na maelhmai khueh thil lamtah amah neh Egypt boeih te tonghma thil.
Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt:
3 Voek lamtah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he thui pah. A sokko tuilung ah aka kol tuihnam puei, Egypt manghai Pharaoh nang kam pai thil coeng ne. Amah long tah kai taengah, ‘Ka sokko he kai loh kamah kah la ka khueh,’ a ti.
speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself.
4 Thisum, thisum neh na kam ah kan dueh vetih na sokko kah nga te na lip dongah ka ben ni. Na sokko khui lamloh nang kan doek vetih na sokko kah nga boeih khaw na lip dongah kap ni.
And I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales; and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, with all the fish of thy rivers which stick unto thy scales.
5 Namah neh na sokko nga boeih khaw na khuikah khosoek ah kam phap vetih, lohma tlai ah na cungku ni. Nang n'khoem pawt vetih n'coi mahpawh. Diklai mulhing ham neh vaan kah vaa ham nang te cakok la kam paek ni.
And I will leave thee [thrown] into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open field; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: I have given thee for meat to the beasts of the earth and to the fowls of the heaven,
6 Te vaengah Egypt khosa boeih loh BOEIPA kamah ni tila a ming uh ni. Amih te Israel imkhui kah capu conghol la om coeng.
And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
7 Amih loh nang te na kut, kut ah n'tuuk vaengah na paep tih amih kah laengpang boeih na phen pah. Nang dongah a hangdang vaengah nim te na khaem sumsoek tih amih kah cinghen boeih na phit sak.
When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst break, and didst rend all their shoulders: and when they leaned upon thee, thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.
8 Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Kai loh nang taengah cunghang kang khuen vetih nang lamkah hlang neh rhamsa khaw ka thup ni.
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and will cut off from thee man and beast.
9 Tedae, ‘Sokko te kamah ham tih kamah loh ka saii,’ a ti dongah Egypt khohmuen te khopong neh imrhong la a poeh vaengah BOEIPA kamah he a ming uh bitni.
And the land of Egypt shall be a desolation and a waste; and they shall know that I am the LORD: because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it.
10 Te dongah namah neh na sokko khaw ka pai thil coeng ne. Egypt kho te Syene Migdol lamloh Kusah khorhi due kholing khopong kah imrhong la ka khueh ni.
therefore behold, I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and will make the land of Egypt an utter waste and desolation, from the tower of Seveneh even unto the border of Ethiopia.
11 Te longah hlang kho loh paan pawt vetih rhamsa kho long khaw, te longah paan mahpawh. Kum sawmli khuiah khosa om mahpawh.
No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
12 Egypt khohmuen te khopong la ka khueh vaengah diklai hman ah pong ni. A khopuei rhoek khaw khopuei rhoek lakli ah a khah vetih kum sawmli khopong la om ni. Egypt te namtom taengla ka taek ka yak vetih amih te diklai ah ka haeh ni.
And I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be a desolation forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
13 Tedae ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Kum sawmli a thok vaengah Egypt te ka taek ka yak nah pilnam taeng lamloh pahoi ka coi ni.
For thus saith the Lord GOD: At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the peoples whither they were scattered:
14 Egypt thongtla te ka mael puei vetih amih te amah tuikong khohmuen kah Parthros khohmuen la ka bal sak ni. Te vaengah tlarhoel ram la pahoi om uh ni.
and I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their birth; and they shall be there a base kingdom.
15 Ram tom lakah tlarhoel la om vetih namtom soah koep cungphoek mahpawh. Amih te ka muei sak daengah ni namtom soah a taemrhai pawt eh.
It shall be the basest of the kingdoms; neither shall it any more lift itself up above the nations: and I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
16 Te vaengah a taengla amamih hooi uh tih thaesainah aka poek rhoek kah pangtungnah la Israel imkhui he om voel mahpawh. Te phoeiah Kai he, ka Boeipa Yahovah ni tila a ming uh bitni,” a ti.
And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to remembrance, when they turn to look after them: and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
17 Kum kul kum rhih, hla lamhma hnin at dongla a om vaengah BOEIPA ol kai taengla ha pawk tih,
And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first [month], in the first [day] of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
18 “Hlang capa aw, Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh Tyre te a caem kah thohtatnah a len neh a thohtat sak coeng. A lu khaw boeih tlong tih laengpang boeih thool coeng. Tedae amah ham neh a caem ham thapang om hae pawh. Tyre lamkah thohtatnah lamloh a taengah a thohtat sak.
Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his army, from Tyre, for the service that he had served against it:
19 Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Kai loh Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar taengah Egypt khohmuen ka paek coeng he. Te vaengah a hlangping te a khuen pah vetih a kutbuem khaw a buem pah ni. A maeh te a poelyoe pah vetih a caem ham thapang la om ni.
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall carry off her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
20 A taengah a thohtat te khaw kai ham a saii uh dongah, a thaphu la anih te Egypt khohmuen ka paek. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni.
I have given him the land of Egypt as his recompence for which he served, because they wrought for me, saith the Lord GOD.
21 Te khohnin ah Israel imkhui ham ki cawn ni. Te vaengah nang te amih lakli ah ka ongnah ka paek vetih BOEIPA kamah he m'ming uh ni,” a ti.
In that day will I cause an horn to bud forth unto the house of Israel, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
