Ezekiel 44

1 Kai te khothoeng la aka mael poengben rhokso vongka longpuei la n'mael puei vaengah te te ana khai uh pueng.

Then he brought me towarde the gate of the outwarde Sanctuarie, which turneth towarde the East, and it was shut.

2 Te vaengah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Vongka a khaih he ana om saeh. Ong boel saeh lamtah he lamloh hlang kun boel saeh. Israel Pathen BOEIPA he te lamloh a kun lalah a khaih uh dongah ana om saeh.

Then saide the Lord vnto me, This gate shalbe shut, and shall not bee opened, and no man shall enter by it, because the Lord God of Israel hath entred by it, and it shalbe shut.

3 BOEIPA mikhmuh ah buh aka ca aka ca ham khoboei, khoboei mah a khuiah ngol saeh. Vongka kah ngalha long kun saeh lamtah amah long ah cet saeh,” a ti.

It appertaineth to the Prince: the Prince himselfe shall sit in it to eate bread before the Lord: he shall enter by the way of the porche of that gate, and shall go out by the way of the same.

4 Te phoeiah im hmai kah tlangpuei vongka longpuei la kai n'khuen. Ka sawt vaengah BOEIPA im te BOEIPA kah thangpomnah tarha bae tih ka maelhmai neh ka bakop.

Then brought he mee toward the North gate before the House: and when I looked, beholde, the glorie of the Lord filled the house of the Lord, and I fell vpon my face.

5 Tedae BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Hlang capa aw na lungbuei ah khueh lamtah na mik neh hmu laeh. Na hna neh ya laeh. A cungkuem dongah kai loh nang te BOEIPA im kah khosing boeih neh a olkhueng dongkah olkhueng cungkuem te kang uen coeng. Te dongah na lungbuei te a im vongrhai rhokso kah a thoengnah cungkuem taengah khueh laeh.

And the Lord sayd vnto me, Sonne of man, marke well, and behold with thine eyes, and heare with thine eares, all that I say vnto thee, concerning al the ordinances of the house of the Lord, and al the lawes thereof, and marke well the entring in of the house with euery going forth of the Sanctuarie,

6 Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he, Israel imkhui boekoek taengah thui pah. Israel imkhui nang kah tueilaehkoi cungkuem te nangmih taengah temah laeh saeh.

And thou shalt say to the rebellious, euen to ye house of Israel, Thus saith ye Lord God, O house of Israel, ye haue ynough of al your abominations,

7 Lungbuei pumdul rhoek neh pumsa kah pumdul, kholong ca rhoek te ka rhokso ah om ham nang khuen uh. A tha neh a thii te ka buh la na nawn vaengah ka im te a poeih tih nangmih tueilaehkoi cungkuem loh ka paipi te a phae.

Seeing that yee haue brought into my Sanctuarie strangers, vncircumcised in heart, and vncircumcised in flesh, to bee in my Sanctuarie, to pollute mine house, when yee offer my bread, euen fat, and blood: and they haue broken my couenant, because of all your abominations.

8 Ka cimcaihnah loh a kuek te na ngaithuen uh pawt dongah ka rhokso dongkah ka kuek te aka ngaithuen la nangmih na khueh uh thae.

For yee haue not kept the ordinances of mine holy things: but you your selues haue set other to take the charge of my Sanctuarie.

9 Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Lungbuei pumdul neh pumsa pumdul, kholong ca boeih tah Israel ca lakli kah kholong ca boeih khaw ka rhokso la mop boel saeh.

Thus saieth the Lord God, No stranger vncircumcised in heart, nor vncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my Sanctuarie, of any stranger that is among the children of Israel,

10 Te dongah Levi pataeng kai taeng lamloh a lakhla vaengah tah Israel loh kho a hmang. Kho a hmang vaengah kai taeng lamloh a mueirhol hnuk a vai uh dongah amamih kathaesainah te phuei uh saeh.

Neither yet ye Leuites that are gone backe from me, when Israel went astray, which went astray from thee after their idoles, but they shall beare their iniquitie.

11 Te daengah ni ka rhokso ah om uh vetih im vongka kah cawhkung la aka thotat neh im ah aka thotat la a om uh eh. Te rhoek loh pilnam ham hmueihhlutnah neh hmueih te ngawn pah saeh. Te rhoek te amih bong ham amih mikhmuh ah pai saeh.

And they shall serue in my Sanctuarie, and keepe the gates of the House, and minister in the House: they shall slay the burnt offring and the sacrifice for the people: and they shall stand before them to serue them.

12 Amih loh a mueirhol hmai ah a thohtat uh khaw Israel imkhui ham tathaesainah hmuitoel la poeh uh. Te dongah ni ka kut he amih ka phuel thil. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni. Te dongah amamih kathaesainah te phuei uh saeh.

Because they serued before their idoles, and caused the house of Israel to fall into iniquitie, therfore haue I lift vp mine had against the, saith the Lord God, and they shall beare their iniquity,

13 Kai taengah khosoih bi ham ka taengla ha mop uh boel saeh. Cimcaihnah khui lamakh cimcaihnah ni kai kah cimcaihnah cungkuem khuiah ha mop eh. Te dongah amamih kah mingthae neh amamih kah tueilaehkoi a saii uh te phuei uh saeh.

And they shall not come neere vnto me to do ye office of ye Priest vnto me, neyther shall they come neere vnto any of mine holy things in the most holy place, but they shall beare their shame and their abominations, which they haue comitted.

14 Tedae amih te a thohtatnah cungkuem dongah ka im kah a kuek aka ngaithuen tih a khuiah a cungkuem aka saii la ka khueh ni.

And I will make them keepers of ye watch of the House, for all the seruice thereof, and for all that shalbe done therein.

15 Tedae Zadok koca, Levi khosoih rhoek loh ka rhokso kah a kuek te ngaithuen uh saeh.

He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni.

But the Priests of the Leuites, the sonnes of Zadok, that kept the charge of my Sanctuarie, when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come neere to me to serue me, and they shall stande before me to offer me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord God.

16 Amih ni ka rhokso la a kun uh eh. Te phoeiah amih ni kai aka bong ham ka caboei taengah ha mop uh vetih ka kuek te a ngaithuen uh eh.

They shall enter into my Sanctuarie, and shall come neere to my table, to serue me, and they shall keepe my charge.

But when they goe foorth into the vtter court, euen to the vtter court to the people, they shall put off their garments, wherein they ministred, and lay them in the holy chambers, and they shall put on other garments: for they shall not sanctifie the people with their garments.
