Ezekiel 40

1 Kaimih hlangsol kah kum kul neh nga, khopuei a tloek hnuk kah kum hlai li nah, kum a tongnah kah hla rha lo coeng. Te khohnin ah kuelhuelh ah BOEIPA kut te kai soah om tih kai te pahoi ng'khuen te.

In the twenty-fifth year after we had been taken away prisoners, in the first month of the year, on the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after the town was taken, on the very same day, the hand of the Lord was on me, and he took me there.

2 Pathen kah mangthuinah neh Israel khohmuen la kai n'khuen. Te vaengah kai te tlang sang tangkik ah n'duem sak tih a sokah tuithim ah khopuei mueimae bang om.

In the visions of God he took me into the land of Israel, and put me down on a very high mountain, on which there was, as it seemed, a building like a town opposite me.

3 Kai te pahoi m'pawk puei vaengah tah hlang kah a mueimae mah rhohum kah mueimae bangla tarha om. Te vaengah amah te a kut dongkah hlamik hamnak, capu cungnueh neh vongka ah pai.

He took me there, and I saw a man, looking like brass, with a linen cord in his hand and a measuring rod: and he was stationed in the doorway.

4 Te vaengah kai te, “Hlang capa kah a hlang aw, na mik neh hmu lamtah na hna neh ya lah. Kai loh nang kan tueng boeih te na lungbuei ah khueh lah. Israel imkhui ah na hmuh boeih puen pah. Te te nang tueng ham ni hela n'khuen.

And the man said to me, Son of man, see with your eyes and give hearing with your ears, and take to heart everything I am going to let you see; for in order that I might let you see them, you have come here: and give an account of all you see to the children of Israel.

5 Im vongvoel vongtung aih he a kaep a kaep ah hlang kut kah capu cungnueh neh a dong la dong rhuk kutsom pakhat lo. Buengngol kah a daang te capu pakhat phoeiah capu pakhat a sang la a nueh.

And there was a wall on the outside of the house all round, and in the man's hand there was a measuring rod six cubits long by a cubit and a hand's measure: so he took the measure of the building from side to side, one rod; and from base to top, one rod.

6 Te phoeiah khothoeng longpuei la maelhmai aka mang vongka te a paan tih a tangtlaeng so, a tangtlaeng soah luei. Te vaengah vongka kah cingkhaa te a daang capu pakhat neh a nueh tih cingkhaa pakhat te a daang capu pakhat om.

Then he came to the doorway looking to the east, and went up by its steps; and he took the measure of the doorstep, one rod wide.

7 Tanhnaem te a yun capu khat neh a daang khaw capu khat sen. Tanhnaem laklo te dong nga ka tih vongka cingkhaa taengkah, im vongka kah ngalha khaw capu pakhat sen bal.

And the watchmen's rooms were one rod long and one rod wide; and the space between the rooms was five cubits; the doorstep of the doorway, by the covered way of the doorway inside, was one rod.

8 Im lamloh vongka kah ngalha te capu pakhat la a nueh bal.

And he took the measure of the covered way of the doorway inside,

9 Vongka kah ngalha te a dong ah dong rhet la a nueh. Im hmai ah vongka ngalha dongkah ngalhatung te dong nit lo.

Eight cubits; and its uprights, two cubits; the covered way of the doorway was inside.

10 Vongka tanhnaem te khothoeng longpuei heben ah pathum, keben ah pathum om tih a pathum la a pum vai uh. Ngalhatung ham heben kah neh keben kah te a sang pakhat la om.

And the rooms of the doorway on the east were three on this side and three on that; all three were of the same size; and the uprights on this side and on that were of the same size.

11 Te phoeiah vongka thohka te a daang dong rha neh vongka kah a yun te dong hlai thum la a nueh.

And he took the measure of the opening of the doorway, ten cubits wide; and the way down the doorway was thirteen cubits;

12 Tanhnaem hmai kah longkhawn te dong khat lo tih voeivang kah longkhawn khaw dong khat lo. Te dongah tanhnaem te khatben ah dong rhuk, khatben ah dong rhuk lo.

And the space in front of the rooms, a cubit on this side and a cubit on that side; and the rooms six cubits on this side and six cubits on that.

13 Te phoeiah a vongka tanhnaem imphu lamloh imphu duela a daang a dong pakul panga la a nueh. thohka neh thohka te tah hmaitoh uh rhoi.

And he took the measure of the doorway from the back of one room to the back of the other, twenty-five cubits across, from door to door.

14 Ngalhatung te vongup vongka kaep, kaep kah ngalhatung hil dong sawmrhuk a khueh.

And he took the measure of the covered way, twenty cubits; and opening from the covered way of the doorway was the open square round about.

15 Vongka hmai lamloh vongka ngalha hmai duela a khuirhai neh a khuirhai a dong sawmnga khui.

And from before the opening of the doorway to before the inner covered way of the doorway was fifty cubits.

16 Tanhnaem neh a ngalhatung dongkah bangbuet caek tih vongka khuiben kah a kaep kaep ah om. Te dongah ngalha ham neh bangbuet khui kah a kaep kaep tah, ngalhatung dongah rhophoe a khuehuh.

And the rooms and their uprights had sloping windows inside the doorway all round, and in the same way the covered way had windows all round on the inside: and on every upright there were palm-trees.

17 Te phoeiah kai te vongup khuila voelh n'khuen hatah imkhan khaw lungphaih tarha a na khueh. Vongup kaep kaep ah lungphaih hoengla imkhan sawmthum om.

Then he took me into the outer square, and there were rooms and a stone floor made for the open square all round: there were thirty rooms on the stone floor.

18 Vongka hlaep lungphaih neh vongka dang kah lungphaih tah voeivang ah a yun thikat.

And the stone floor was by the side of the doorways, and was as wide as the doorways were long, even the lower floor.

19 Te phoeiah a dang vongka hmai lamloh a khui vongup hmai duela poenghman ah khothoeng tlangpuei a daang te dong yakhat la a nueh.

Then he took the measure of the square across, from before the lower doorway inside to before the inner doorway outside, one hundred cubits. And he took me in the direction of the north,

20 Te phoeiah a vongka hmai te tlangpuei longpuei vongup voel duela a yun neh a daang a nueh.

And there was a doorway to the outer square, looking to the north; and he took the measure of it to see how wide and how long it was.

21 A tanhnaem khaw khatben ah tanhnaem pathum, khatben ah ngalhatung pathum om. Ngalhatung soah ngalha a tloeng. A ngalha te a yun te lamhma kah vongka bangla om. A yun dong sawmnga neh a daang te dong pakul panga lo.

And it had three rooms on this side of it and three on that; its uprights and its covered ways were the same size as those of the first doorway: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

22 A bangbuet, bangbuet neh a ngalha, a ngalha te rhophoe tlip a khueh. Te te khothoeng longpuei la a maelhmai aka hooi vongka neh a sang vaiuh. Te lam te tangtlaeng parhih neh cet uh. Te vaengah a ngalha neh a ngalha te hmaitoh uh rhoi.

And its windows, and the windows of its covered ways, and its palm-trees, were the same as those of the doorway looking to the east; and there were seven steps up to it; and the covered way went inside.

23 A khui vongup kah vongka loh tlangpuei neh khothoeng kah vongka te a hmaitoh. Te dongah vongka pakhat lamloh vongka pakhat hil te dong yakhat la a nueh.

And there was a doorway to the inner square opposite the doorway on the north, like the doorway on the east; and he took the measure from doorway to doorway, a hundred cubits.

24 Te phoeiah kai te tuithim longpuei la m'mawt hatah tuithim longpuei kah vongka te kak ka hmuh. Te vaengah a ngalhatung neh a ngalhatung khaw a ngalha neh a ngalha khaw cungnueh pakhat la om.

And he took me to the south, and I saw a doorway looking to the south: and he took the measure of its rooms and its uprights and its covered ways by these measures.

25 A bangbuet khaw a ngalha, a ngalha kaep kaep kah bangbuet bangla om. Te rhoek te a yun dong sawmnga neh a daang dong pakul panga lo.

And there were windows in it and in the covered way all round, like the other windows: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

26 A tangkham, a tangkham te tangtlaeng parhih tlip om. A ngalha neh a ngalha te hmaitoh uh bal. A ngalhatung, a ngalhatung soah rhophoe te khatben ah pakhat, khatben ah khaw pakhat om bal.

And there were seven steps up to it, and its covered way went inside: and it had palm-trees, one on this side and one on that, on its uprights.

27 Tuithim longpuei kah vongup khui ah khaw vongka om bal. Tuithim longpuei kah vongka khat lamloh vongka khat hil te dong yakhat la a nueh.

And there was a doorway to the inner square looking to the south: he took the measure from doorway to doorway to the south, a hundred cubits.

28 Te phoeiah kai te tuithim vongka longah vongup khui la n'khuen. Te vaengah tuithim vongka te te rhoek kah cungnueh tarhing la a nueh.

Then he took me to the inner square by the south doorway: and he took the measure of the south doorway by these measures;

29 A tanhnaem neh a tanhnaem khaw, a ngalhatung neh a ngalhatung khaw, a ngalha neh a ngalha khaw cungnueh pakhat la omuh. A bangbuet bal khaw a ngalha, a ngalha kaep kaep ah om tih a yun dong sawmnga neh a daang dong kul dong nga lo.

And the rooms in it and the uprights and the covered ways, by these measures:

30 Ngalha kaep kaep ah a yun dong pakul panga neh a daang dong nga om.

And there were windows in it and in the covered way all round: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

31 A ngalha vong voel la a hmaitoh tih a ngalhatung, a ngalhatung dongah rhophoe om. A taengkah tangkham, tangkham ah tangtlaeng parhet om.

The covered way was on the side nearest the outer square; and there were palm-trees on the uprights: and there were eight steps going up to it.

32 Te phoeiah kai te khothoeng longpuei kah vongup khui la n'khuen tih vongka te a cungnueh tarhing la a nueh.

And he took me into the inner square facing the east: and he took the measure of the doorway by these measures;

33 A tanhnaem neh a tanhnaem khaw, a taengkah a ngalhatung khaw, a ngalha neh a ngalha khaw cungnueh pakhat la a khueh. A bangbuet khaw a ngalha, a ngalha kaep kaep ah a yun dong sawmnga neh a daang dong kul dong nga om.

And of the rooms in it and its uprights and its covered ways, by these measures: and there were windows in it and in the covered way round about: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

34 A ngalha neh a ngalha te vongup voel ah hmaitoh uh rhoi. A ngalhatung, a ngalha so tah khatben ah khaw khatben ah khaw rhophoe tlip om. Te vaengah a tangkham, a tangkham tah tangtlaeng parhet a boh.

And the covered way was on the side nearest the outer square; there were palm-trees on the uprights, on this side and on that: and there were eight steps going up to it.

35 Te phoeiah kai te tlangpuei vongka la n'khuen tih te rhoek cungnueh tarhing ah a nueh.

And he took me to the north doorway: and he took the measure of it by these measures;

36 A tanhnaem neh a tanhnaem khaw, a ngalhatung neh a ngalhatung khaw, a ngalha neh a ngalha khaw vaiuh. A bangbuet te a kaep kaep ah a yun dong sawmnga neh a daang dong kul dong nga lo.

Its rooms, its uprights, and its covered way had the same measures, and its covered way had windows all round: it was fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.

37 A ngalhatung neh a ngalhatung te vongtung voel ah hmaitoh uh. A ngalhatung, a ngalhatung so te khatben ah khaw khatben ah khaw rhophoe tlip a khueh tih a tangkham a tangkham ahtangtlaeng parhet a boh.

Its uprights were on the side nearest to the outer square; there were palm-trees on the uprights, on this side and on that: and there were eight steps going up to it.

38 Vongka ngalha taengkah imkhan thohka ah hmueihhlutnah te pahoi a hoek uh.

And there was a room with a door in the covered way of the doorway, where the burned offering was washed.

39 Vongka ngalha khuikah khatben ah caboei panit, khatben ah caboei panit om bal. Te rhoek soah ni hmueihhlutnah neh boirhaem khaw hmaithennah khaw a ngawn.

And in the covered way of the doorway there were two tables on this side and two tables on that side, on which the burned offering and the sin-offering and the offering for error were put to death:

40 Tlangpuei vongka kah thohka la aka cet ham vongvoel hlaep ah khaw caboei panit om tih vongka kah ngalha hlaep ah caboei a tloe panit om bal.

On the outer side, to the north, as one goes up to the opening of the doorway, were two tables.

41 Tekah khaben ah caboei pali neh khatben ah caboei pali om. Te dongah vongka hael kah caboei parhet soah maeh a ngawn uh.

There were four tables on one side and four tables on the other, by the side of the doorway; eight tables, on which they put to death the beasts for the offerings.

42 Hmueihhlutnah ham caboei pali te lungrhaih lung neh a saii tih pakhat te a yun dong khat phoeiah tintan, a daang dong khat phoeiah tintan, a sang dong khat lo. A soah ah hmueihhlutnah neh hmueih a ngawn vaengkah hnopai te a tloeng uh.

And there were four tables for the burned offering, made of cut stone, one and a half cubits long, one and a half cubits wide and a cubit high, where the instruments were placed which were used for putting to death the burned offering and the beasts for the offerings.

43 Imkhui te a kaep kaep ah lingvawt kutsom pakhat tlip a ten tih caboei soah nawnnah maeh te a tloeng.

And they had edges all round as wide as a man's hand: and on the tables was the flesh of the offerings.

44 Vongka a voel kah imkhan khui ah vongup khui kah aka hlai rhoek te tlangpuei vongka hael ah om. Te vaengah a maelhmai te tuithim longpuei la a hooi. Khothoeng vongka hael kah pakhat long tah a maelhmai te tlangpuei longpuei la a hooi.

And he took me into the inner square, and there were two rooms in the inner square, one at the side of the north doorway, facing south; and one at the side of the south doorway, facing north.

45 Te vaengah kai taengah, “Tuithim longpuei aka hmaitoh imkhan he imkhui kah a kuek aka ngaithuen khosoih rhoek ham saeh.

And he said to me, This room, facing south, is for the priests who have the care of the house.

46 Tlangpuei longpuei la aka hmaitoh imkhan te hmueihtuk kah a kuek aka ngaithuen khosoih rhoek ham saeh. Levi koca lamloh a yoei la Zadok koca rhoek ni BOEIPA amah taengah a pongthoh,” a ti.

And the room facing north is for the priests who have the care of the altar: these are the sons of Zadok, who, from among the sons of Levi, come near to the Lord to do the work of his house.

47 Te vaengah vongup te a yun dong yakhat, a daang dong yakhat tih hniboeng bangla a nueh. Tedae hmueihtuk tah im hmai ah om.

And he took the measure of the open square, a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits wide, being square; and the altar was in front of the house.

48 Kai te im ngalha taengla n'khuen tih ngalha kah ngalhatung te khatben ah dong nga, khatben ah dong nga la, vongka kah a daang te khatben ah dong thum, khatben ah dong thum la a nueh.

Then he took me to the covered way before the house, and took the measure of its uprights, five cubits on one side and five cubits on the other: and the doorway was fourteen cubits wide; and the side-walls of the doorway were three cubits on one side and three cubits on the other.

49 Ngalha te a yun dong kul neh a daang dong hlai khat lo. Te te tangtlaeng neh luei tih tung taengkah ngalhatung te khatben ah pakhat, khatben ah pakhat pai.

The covered way was twenty cubits long and twelve cubits wide, and they went up to it by ten steps; and there were pillars by the uprights, one on one side and one on the other.
