< 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 five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth [day] of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was smitten, in the same day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and brought me thither.
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 brought me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which [was] as the frame of a city on the south.
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.
And he brought me thither, and behold, [there was] a man, whose appearance [was] like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
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, behold with thy eyes, and hear with thy ears, and set thy heart upon all that I shall show thee; for, to the intent that I might show [them] to thee [art] thou brought hither: declare all that thou seest to the house 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 behold a wall on the outside of the house around, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits [long] by the cubit and a hand-breadth: so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed: and the hight, one reed.
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 gate which looketh towards the east, and ascended its stairs, and measured the threshhold of the gate, [which was] one reed broad; and the other threshhold [of the gate], [which was] one reed broad.
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 [every] little chamber [was] one reed long, and one reed broad; and between the little chambers [were] five cubits; and the threshhold of the gate by the porch of the gate within [was] one reed.
8 Im lamloh vongka kah ngalha te capu pakhat la a nueh bal.
He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.
9 Vongka kah ngalha te a dong ah dong rhet la a nueh. Im hmai ah vongka ngalha dongkah ngalhatung te dong nit lo.
Then he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its posts, two cubits; and the porch of the gate [was] inward.
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 little chambers of the gate eastward [were] three on this side, and three on that side; they three [were] of one measure: and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.
11 Te phoeiah vongka thohka te a daang dong rha neh vongka kah a yun te dong hlai thum la a nueh.
And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; [and] the length of the gate, 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.
The space also before the little chambers [was] one cubit [on this side], and the space [was] one cubit on that side: and the little chambers [were] six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
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.
He measured then the gate from the roof of [one] little chamber to the roof of another: the breadth [was] five and twenty cubits, door against door.
14 Ngalhatung te vongup vongka kaep, kaep kah ngalhatung hil dong sawmrhuk a khueh.
He made also posts of sixty cubits; even to the post of the court around the gate.
15 Vongka hmai lamloh vongka ngalha hmai duela a khuirhai neh a khuirhai a dong sawmnga khui.
And from the face of the gate of the entrance to the face of the porch of the inner gate [were] 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 [there were] narrow windows to the little chambers, and to their posts within the gate around, and likewise to the arches: and windows [were] around inward: and upon [each] post [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 brought me into the outward court, and lo, [there were] chambers, and a pavement made for the court around: thirty chambers [were] upon the pavement.
18 Vongka hlaep lungphaih neh vongka dang kah lungphaih tah voeivang ah a yun thikat.
And the pavement by the side of the gates over against the length of the gates [was] the lower pavement.
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 measured the breadth from the front of the lower gate to the front of the inner court without, a hundred cubits eastward and northward.
20 Te phoeiah a vongka hmai te tlangpuei longpuei vongup voel duela a yun neh a daang a nueh.
And the gate of the outward court that looked towards the north, he measured its length, and its breadth.
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 the little chambers of it [were] three on this side and three on that side; and its posts and its arches were after the measure of the first gate; its length [was] fifty cubits, and its breadth five and twenty cubits.
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 their windows, and their arches, and their palm-trees, [were] after the measure of the gate that looketh towards the east; and they went up to it by seven steps; and its arches [were] before them.
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 the gate of the inner court [was] over against the gate towards the north, and towards the east; and he measured from gate to gate 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.
After that he brought me towards the south, and behold a gate towards the south: and he measured its posts and its arches according to 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 its arches around, like those windows: the length [was] fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
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 to go up to it, and its arches [were] before them: and it had palm-trees, one on this side, and another on that side, upon its posts.
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 gate in the inner court towards the south: and he measured from gate to gate towards 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.
And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate; and he measured the south gate according to 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 its little chambers, and its posts, and its arches, according to these measures; and [there were] windows in it and in its arches around: [it was] fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
30 Ngalha kaep kaep ah a yun dong pakul panga neh a daang dong nga om.
And the arches around [were] five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.
31 A ngalha vong voel la a hmaitoh tih a ngalhatung, a ngalhatung dongah rhophoe om. A taengkah tangkham, tangkham ah tangtlaeng parhet om.
And its arches [were] towards the outer court; and palm-trees [were] upon its posts: and the ascent to it [had] eight steps.
32 Te phoeiah kai te khothoeng longpuei kah vongup khui la n'khuen tih vongka te a cungnueh tarhing la a nueh.
And he brought me into the inner court towards the east: and he measured the gate according to 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 its little chambers, and its posts, and its arches, [were] according to these measures; and [there were] windows in it and in its arches around: [it was] fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
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 its arches [were] towards the outward court; and palm-trees were upon its posts, on this side, and on that side: and the ascent to it [had] eight steps.
35 Te phoeiah kai te tlangpuei vongka la n'khuen tih te rhoek cungnueh tarhing ah a nueh.
And he brought me to the north gate, and measured [it] according to 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 little chambers, its posts, and its arches, and the windows to it around: the length [was] fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
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.
And its posts [were] towards the outer court; and palm-trees [were] upon its posts, on this side, and on that side: and the ascent to it [had] eight steps.
38 Vongka ngalha taengkah imkhan thohka ah hmueihhlutnah te pahoi a hoek uh.
And the chambers and its entries [were] by the posts of the gates, where they washed the burnt-offering.
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 porch of the gate [were] two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay upon it the burnt-offering and the sin-offering and the trespass-offering.
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.
And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entry of the north gate, [were] two tables; and on the other side, which [was] at the porch of the gate, [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.
Four tables [were] on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, upon which they slew [their sacrifices].
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 the four tables [were] of hewn stone for the burnt-offering, of a cubit and a half long, and a cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high: upon which also they laid the instruments with which they slew the burnt-offering and the sacrifice.
43 Imkhui te a kaep kaep ah lingvawt kutsom pakhat tlip a ten tih caboei soah nawnnah maeh te a tloeng.
And within [were] hooks, a hand broad, fastened around: and upon the tables [was] the flesh of the offering.
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 without the inner gate [were] the chambers of the singers in the inner court, which [was] at the side of the north gate; and their prospect [was] towards the south: one at the side of the east gate [having] the prospect towards the 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 chamber, whose prospect [is] towards the south, [is] for the priests, the keepers of the charge 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 chamber whose prospect [is] towards the north [is] for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar: these [are] the sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi, who come near to the LORD to minister to him.
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.
So he measured the court, a hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar [that was] before 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.
And he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured [each] post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and the breadth of the gate [was] three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.
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 length of the porch [was] twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; and [he brought me] by the steps by which they went up to it: and [there were] pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.
