< Ezekiel 43 >
1 Te phoeiah kai te vongka taengla n'caeh puei. Vongka te khothoeng longpuei la mael.
Then he brought me to the gate, even to the gate that looketh toward 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 behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the east; and the sound thereof was as the sound of great waters, and the earth shone 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 appearance was like the vision which I saw, like the vision which I saw when I came to destroy the city; it was a vision like the vision which I saw at the river Chebar. And I fell upon my face.
4 Te vaengah BOEIPA kah thangpomnah tah khothoeng longpuei lamloh a hmai vongka longah imkhui la kun.
And the glory of Jehovah came into the house by way of the gate, whose prospect was toward 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.
Then the spirit took me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of Jehovah filled the house.
6 Te vaengah im lamloh kai m'voek te ka yaak tih kai taengah aka pai hlang pakhat om.
And I heard one speaking to me out of the house, and a man was standing by me.
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 of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the sons of Israel forever; and the house of Israel shall no more pollute my holy name, neither they nor their kings, by their fornication, and by the dead bodies of their kings in their sepulchres;
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.
in that they set their threshold by my threshold, and their post near my post, so that there was only a wall between me and them, and defiled my holy name by the abominations which they committed; wherefore I have consumed them in my anger.
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 remove far away from me their fornication, and the carcasses of their kings; and I will dwell in the midst of them forever.
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.
And thou, son of man, show this house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities, and that they may measure the pattern.
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 if they be ashamed of all which they have done, let them know the form of the house and the fashion thereof, and the passages for going out and coming in, and all the forms thereof, and all the statutes thereof, and all the laws thereof, and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the statutes thereof, 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. Upon the top of the mountain, all within its limits shall be most holy. Behold, 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 by cubits; each cubit being a cubit and a hand-breadth. The bottom shall be a cubit high and a cubit broad; and the border thereof, by the edge thereof round about, shall be a span; and this shall be the outer part of the altar.
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 bottom upon the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser ledge to the greater ledge shall be four cubits, and the breadth a cubit.
15 Hmueihtuk tlang te hmueihtuk lamloh dong li hil a ki pali la cawn hang.
And the altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar upward shall be four horns.
16 Hmueihtuk te a yun hlai nit, a daang hlai nit neh a vae pali la hniboeng bangla om.
And the altar shall be twelve cubits long by twelve broad; square on the four sides thereof.
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 ledge shall be fourteen cubits long by fourteen broad on the four sides thereof; and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and the bottom thereof shall be a cubit round about; and its steps shall look toward 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, thus saith the Lord Jehovah: These are the statutes of the altar, in the day when it is made, to offer burnt-offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.
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.
To the priests, the sons of Levi, of the race of Zadok, that come near to me, saith the Lord Jehovah, to minister to me, thou shalt give a young bullock 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.
And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of the ledge, and on the border round about, and thus cleanse and purge it.
21 Vaitotal te boirhaem la khuen lamtah rhokso voel kah im hloeh ah hoeh.
And thou shalt take the bullock of the sin-offering, and it shall be burned in the appointed place of the house, without the sanctuary.
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 thou shalt offer a he-goat without blemish for a sin-offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bullock.
23 Na ciim bawt bawt ah saelhung ca khuikah vaitotal hmabuet neh boiva khui lamloh tutal hmabuet te na nawn ni.
And when thou hast made an end of cleansing it, thou shalt offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
24 Te te BOEIPA mikhmuh la khuen lamtah khosoih rhoek loh lungkaeh phul thil saeh. Te phoeiah BOEIPA taengah hmueihhlutnah la khuen saeh.
And thou shalt offer them before Jehovah, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and offer them up for a burnt-offering to Jehovah.
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.
Seven days shalt thou sacrifice daily a goat for a sin-offering; they shall also sacrifice a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.
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.
Seven days shall they purge the altar, and purify it, and consecrate themselves.
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 they have finished these days, it shall be that on the eighth day and forward the priests shall present your burnt-offerings and your thank-offerings upon the altar, and I will accept you, saith the Lord Jehovah.
