< Ezekiel 43 >
1 Te phoeiah kai te vongka taengla n'caeh puei. Vongka te khothoeng longpuei la mael.
And he took me to the doorway looking to the east:
2 Te vaengah Israel Pathen kah thangpomnah tah khothoeng longpuei lamloh tarha ha thoeng. A ol te tui yet ol bangla lo tih diklai te a thangpomnah neh a tue.
And there was the glory of the God of Israel coming from the way of the east: and his voice was like the sound of great waters, and the earth was shining with his glory.
3 Mueimae pakhat te a mueimae phek ka hmuh. Khopuei phae ham kai taengla ha pawk vaengkah ka hmuh mueimae phek la om. Mangthui khaw Kebar tuiva kah ka hmuh mueimae bangla om tih ka maelhmai te ka buenglueng.
And the vision which I saw was like the vision I had seen when he came for the destruction of the town: and like the vision which I saw by the river Chebar; and I went down on my face.
4 Te vaengah BOEIPA kah thangpomnah tah khothoeng longpuei lamloh a hmai vongka longah imkhui la kun.
And the glory of the Lord came into the house by the way of the doorway looking to the east.
5 Te phoeiah Mueihla loh kai te m'pom tih vongtung khui la kai te n'khuen. Te vaengah im te BOEIPA kah thangpomnah neh tarha bae.
And the spirit, lifting me up, took me into the inner square; and I saw that the house was full of the glory of the Lord.
6 Te vaengah im lamloh kai m'voek te ka yaak tih kai taengah aka pai hlang pakhat om.
And the voice of one talking to me came to my ears from inside the house; and the man was by my side.
7 Te phoeiah kai taengah, “Hlang capa aw, he he ka ngolkhoel hmuen neh ka kho kah khopha hmuen ni. Israel ca rhoek lakli ah kumhal duela kho ka sak pahoi vetih ka ming cim te amih Israel imkhui neh a manghai rhoek loh a pumyoihnah nen khaw a hmuensang kah a manghai rhok nen khaw poeih uh voel mahpawh.
And he said to me, Son of man, this is the place where the seat of my power is and the resting-place of my feet, where I will be among the children of Israel for ever: and no longer will the people of Israel make my holy name unclean, they or their kings, by their loose ways and by the dead bodies of their kings;
8 A cingkhaa te ka cingkhaa taengah, a rhungsut te ka rhungsut taengah a khueh uh tih kai laklo neh amih laklo ah pangbueng ni a om coeng. Ka ming cim he amamih kah tueilaehkoi a saii uh neh a poeih uh. Te dongah ni ka thintoek ah amih te ka thup.
By putting their doorstep by my doorstep, and the pillar of their door by the pillar of my door, with only a wall between me and them; and they have made my holy name unclean by the disgusting things which they have done: so in my wrath I sent destruction on them.
9 Amih kah pumyoihnah neh a manghai rhok te kai lamloh lakhla laeh saeh. Te daengah ni amih lakli ah kumhal duela kho ka sak eh.
Now let them put their loose ways and the dead bodies of their kings far from me, and I will be among them for ever.
10 Nang hlang capa aw, Israel imkhui taengah im kawng te puen pah. Te daengah ni amamih kathaesainah dongah a hmaithae uh vetih a cungkuemnah nen khaw a nueh u eh.
You, son of man, give the children of Israel an account of this house, so that they may be shamed because of their evil-doing: and let them see the vision of it and its image.
11 Im kah a khui a lam a saii uh boeih te a hmai a thae uh atah a hmuenmol khaw, a thoengnah neh a kunnah khaw, a khui a lam boeih neh a khosing boeih khaw, ka khui ka lam boeih neh a khui a lam khaw, a olkhueng cungkuem dongkah a olkhueng khaw amih te ming sak. Amih mikhmuh ah daek lamtah a khui a lam boeih ngaithuen uh saeh. Te daengah ni a khosing boeih te a vai uh eh.
And they will be shamed by what they have done; so give them the knowledge of the form of the house and its structure, and the ways out of it and into it, and all its laws and its rules, writing it down for them: so that they may keep all its laws and do them.
12 He tah tlang som im kah olkhueng ni. A khorhi kaep, kaep boeih tah cim rhoela cim. He he im kah olkhueng ni ne.
This is the law of the house: On the top of the mountain all the space round it on every side will be most holy. See, this is the law of the house.
13 He rhoek he a dong la a dong vaengkah hmueihtuk cungnueh coeng ni. Te te dong khat neh kutsom pakhat lo. Tungngol dong khat lo tih a daang dong khat neh a rhi hmoi ah khap at phueih om. He tah hmueihtuk dongkah sawn bong ni.
And these are the measures of the altar in cubits: (the cubit being a cubit and a hand's measure; ) its hollow base is a cubit high and a cubit wide, and it has an overhanging edge as wide as a hand-stretch all round it:
14 Diklai tungngol lamloh tungkha hmui hil dong nit neh a daang dong khat lo. Tungkha ca lamloh tungkha puei duela dong li neh a daang dong khat lo.
And from the base on the earth level to the lower shelf, the altar is two cubits high and a cubit wide; and from the smaller shelf to the greater shelf it is four cubits high and a cubit wide.
15 Hmueihtuk tlang te hmueihtuk lamloh dong li hil a ki pali la cawn hang.
And the fireplace is four cubits high: and coming up from the fireplace are the horns, a cubit high.
16 Hmueihtuk te a yun hlai nit, a daang hlai nit neh a vae pali la hniboeng bangla om.
And the fireplace is twelve cubits long and twelve cubits wide, square on its four sides.
17 Tungkha te a yun hlai li neh a daang hlai li lo saeh. A vae pali neh a rhi taengah dong kaek neh a tungngol te a kaepvai duela dong khat lo. A tangtlaeng te khothoeng la hooi saeh,” a ti.
And the shelf is fourteen cubits long and fourteen cubits wide, on its four sides; the edge round it is half a cubit; the base of it is a cubit all round, and its steps are facing the east.
18 Te phoeiah kai taengah, “Hlang capa aw, ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. A soah hmueihhlutnah khuen ham neh a soah thii haeh ham hmueihtuk kah khosing he amah a saii khohnin ah coeng.
And he said to me, Son of man, the Lord God has said, These are the rules for the altar, when they make it, for the offering of burned offerings on it and the draining out of the blood.
19 Te dongah Levi khosoih rhoek taengah pae kuekluek laeh. Amih Zadok tiingan lamloh ka taengah ha yoei uh. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni. Vaitotal te kai aka bong la, saelhung ca te boirhaem la om saeh.
You are to give to the priests, the Levites of the seed of Zadok, who come near to me, says the Lord God, to do my work, a young ox for a sin-offering.
20 A thii te lo lamtah a ki pali dongah khaw, tungkha bangkil pali dongah khaw, a rhi kaepvai ah hluk. Te dongah te te cim sak lamtah dawth kuekluek.
You are to take some of its blood and put it on the four horns and on the four angles of the shelf and on the edge all round: and you are to make it clean and free from sin.
21 Vaitotal te boirhaem la khuen lamtah rhokso voel kah im hloeh ah hoeh.
And you are to take the ox of the sin-offering, and have it burned in the special place ordered for it in the house, outside the holy place.
22 A hnin bae ah maae ca hmabuet te boirhaem la khuen. Te vaengah hmueihtuk te vaitotal neh a ciim uh bangla ciim uh saeh.
And on the second day you are to have a he-goat without any mark on it offered for a sin-offering; and they are to make the altar clean as they did with the young ox.
23 Na ciim bawt bawt ah saelhung ca khuikah vaitotal hmabuet neh boiva khui lamloh tutal hmabuet te na nawn ni.
And after you have made it clean, let a young ox without a mark be offered, and a male sheep from the flock without a mark.
24 Te te BOEIPA mikhmuh la khuen lamtah khosoih rhoek loh lungkaeh phul thil saeh. Te phoeiah BOEIPA taengah hmueihhlutnah la khuen saeh.
And you are to take them before the Lord, and the priests will put salt on them, offering them up for a burned offering to the Lord.
25 Hnin rhih khuiah saii lamtah, hnin at dongkah boirhaem la maae khaw, saelhung ca khuikah tah vaitotal khaw, boiva khuikah tah tutal khaw a hmabuet te nawn uh saeh.
Every day for seven days you are to give a goat for a sin-offering: and let them give in addition a young ox and a male sheep from the flock without any mark on them.
26 Hnin rhih khuiah hmueihtuk te dawth uh saeh lamtah caihcil uh saeh. Te daengah ni a kut, a kut ah a cung u eh.
For seven days they are to make offerings to take away sin from the altar and to make it clean; so they are to make it holy.
27 Khohnin te cup tih hnin rhet dongla ana om ni. Te phoeiah tah nangmih kah hmueihhlutnah neh rhoepnah te khosoih rhoek loh hmueihtuk dongla khueh uh saeh lamtah nangmih te kan moeithen bitni. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni,” a ti.
And when these days have come to an end, then on the eighth day and after, the priests will make your burned offerings on the altar and your peace-offerings; and I will take pleasure in you, says the Lord.
