< Ezekiel 7 >
1 BOEIPA ol kai taengla ha pawk tih,
And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 “Nang hlang capa aw ka Boeipa Yahovah loh Israel khohmuen kah a bawtnah ham he ni a thui. Khohmuen a hmoi pali, pali ah a bawtnah ha pawk coeng.
“O son of man, this is what the Lord GOD says to the land of Israel: ‘The end! The end has come upon the four corners of the land.
3 A bawtnah he nang soah a pai coeng dongah ka thintoek he nang taengla kan tueih ni. Na khosing bangla nang lai kan tloek vetih namah kah tueilaehkoi boeih te namah taengah kan thung ni.
The end is now upon you, and I will unleash My anger against you. I will judge you according to your ways and repay you for all your abominations.
4 Nang te ka mik long khaw n'rhen pawt vetih lungma ka ti mahpawh. Tedae na khosing te namah taengah kam paek vetih namah kah tueilaehkoi te namah khui ah thoeng ni. Te vaengah BOEIPA kamah he nam ming bitni.
I will not look on you with pity, nor will I spare you, but I will punish you for your ways and for the abominations among you. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’
5 “Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Yoethae lah pakhat kah yoethae thoeng he.
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Disaster! An unprecedented disaster — behold, it is coming!
6 A bawtnah ha pawk coeng. A bawtnah ha pawk coeng. Haenghang tih nang taengla ha pawk coeng ke.
The end has come! The end has come! It has roused itself against you. Behold, it has come!
7 Khohmuen kah khosa nang soah cangen la ha thoeng coeng lah ko. Soekloeknah a tue khohnin ha pawk tom coeng tih tlang kah omngaihnah tal coeng.
Doom has come to you, O inhabitants of the land. The time has come; the day is near; there is panic on the mountains instead of shouts of joy.
8 Ka kosi he nang soah a yoei la ka lun pawn vetih ka thintoek he nang taengah ni ka hong eh. Na khosing bangla nang soah lai ka tloek vetih namah tueilaehkoi boeih te nang taengah kam paek ni.
Very soon I will pour out My wrath upon you and vent My anger against you; I will judge you according to your ways and repay you for all your abominations.
9 Ka mik loh rhen pawt vetih lungma ka ti mahpawh. Na khosing bangla nang te kan thuung vaengah namah kah tueilaehkoi te namah khui ah om ni. Te vaengah BOEIPA kamah loh ka ngawn te na ming bitni.
I will not look on you with pity, nor will I spare you, but I will punish you for your ways and for the abominations among you. Then you will know that it is I, the LORD, who strikes the blow.
10 “Khohnin ha pai coeng he, cangen khaw yulh coeng he. Conghol loh khooi tih althanah khaw muem coeng.
Behold, the day is here! It has come! Doom has gone out, the rod has budded, arrogance has bloomed.
11 Kuthlahnah tah halangnah conghol dongah poe. Tedae amih khuikah te a hong ni, a hlangping khuikah khaw a honghi, a boei khuikah a honghi, amih kah rhahlung rhaengsae khaw a hong ni.
Their violence has grown into a rod to punish their wickedness. None of them will remain: none of their multitude, none of their wealth, and nothing of value.
12 A tue ha pawk coeng tih khohnin loh ha pai coeng. Aka lai loh a kohoe boel saeh lamtah aka yoi khaw nguekcoi boel saeh. A hlangping boeih soah a thinsa coeng.
The time has come; the day has arrived. Let the buyer not rejoice and the seller not mourn, for wrath is upon the whole multitude.
13 Aka yoi kah hnoyoih te a hing la a hing uh khui khaw koep mael pawh. A hlangping boeih ham a mangthui te lat mahpawh te. Hlang he amah kathaesainah dongah a hingnah talong thai mahpawh.
The seller will surely not recover what he sold while both remain alive. For the vision concerning the whole multitude will not be revoked, and because of their iniquity, not one of them will preserve his life.
14 “A cungkuem te soepboe ham olueng te a ueng thil. Tedae a hlangping boeih sokah ka thinsa dongah ni caemtloek la a caeh pawh.
They have blown the trumpet and made everything ready, but no one goes to war, for My wrath is upon the whole multitude.
15 Tollong ah cunghang neh im ah duektahaw neh khokha om. Lohma kah te cunghang dongah duek vetih khopuei kah te khokha neh duektahaw loh a dolh ni.
The sword is outside; plague and famine are within. Those in the country will die by the sword, and those in the city will be devoured by famine and plague.
16 Amih hlangyong rhoek tah loeih uh suidae tlang ah kolrhawk vahui bangla om uh ni. Hlang boeih he amamih kathaesainah dongah kawk uh ni.
The survivors will escape and live in the mountains, moaning like doves of the valley, each for his own iniquity.
17 Kut khaw boeih kha vetih khuklu khaw tui la boeih poeh ni.
Every hand will go limp, and every knee will turn to water.
18 Tlamhni a vah uh vetih amih te tuennah loh a thing ni. Maelhmai boeih te yah neh om vetih a lu boeih te lungawng la om ni.
They will put on sackcloth, and terror will overwhelm them. Shame will cover all their faces, and all their heads will be shaved.
19 A ngun tollong la a voeih uh vetih a sui te pumom bangla om ni. A ngun neh a sui loh amih a huul ham a coeng moenih. BOEIPA kah thinpom khohnin ah amih kah hinglu te cung pawt vetih amih bung khaw hah mahpawh. Amih kathaesainah tah hmuitoel la om coeng.
They will throw their silver into the streets, and their gold will seem unclean. Their silver and gold cannot save them in the day of the wrath of the LORD. They cannot satisfy their appetites or fill their stomachs with wealth, for it became the stumbling block that brought their iniquity.
20 Amih kah kirhang cangen te a hoemdamnah ham a khueh. Tedae amih kah tueilaehkoi neh a sarhingkoi tah a muei la amah taengah a saii uh. Te dongah amih te pumom la ka khueh.
His beautiful ornaments they transformed into pride and used them to fashion their vile images and detestable idols. Therefore I will make these into something unclean for them.
21 Kholong kut ah maeh la, diklai halang taengah kutbuem la ka paek ni. Te vaengah anih te a poeih rhoe a poeih uh ni.
And I will hand these things over as plunder to foreigners and loot to the wicked of the earth, who will defile them.
22 Ka maelhmai te amih lamloh ka mangthung vaengah ka khoem duen te a poeih uh. A khuila dingca rhoek kun uh vetih a poeih uh ni.
I will turn My face away from them, and they will defile My treasured place. Violent men will enter it, and they will defile it.
23 “Khohmuen he thii kah laitloeknah bae tih khopuei he kuthlahnah a khawk coeng dongah thirhui saii uh laeh.
Forge the chain, for the land is full of crimes of bloodshed, and the city is full of violence.
24 Namtom kah boethae te ka thoeng sak vetih amih kah im te a huul uh ni. Hlangtlung kah hoemdamnah te ka paa sak vetih a rhokso te a poeih uh ni.
So I will bring the most wicked of nations to take possession of their houses. I will end the pride of the mighty, and their holy places will be profaned.
25 Mitmoengnah a pai dongah ngaimongnah tlap uh cakhaw dang uh mahpawh.
Anguish is coming! They will seek peace, but find none.
26 Lucik soah lucik pai vetih olthang soah olthang om ni. Tonghma lamkah mangthui tlap cakhaw khosoih lamkah olkhueng neh patong rhoek kah cilsuep khaw paltham ni.
Disaster upon disaster will come, and rumor after rumor. Then they will seek a vision from a prophet, but instruction from the priests will perish, as will counsel from the elders.
27 Manghai te nguekcoi vetih khoboei loh khopong ni a bai eh. Khohmuen kah pilnam kut khaw hlinghlawk vetih a khosing bangla amih te ka saii ni. Amamih laitloeknah dongah amamih te lai ka tloek vaengah BOEIPA kamah te m'ming uh bitni,” a ti.
The king will mourn, the prince will be clothed with despair, and the hands of the people of the land will tremble. I will deal with them according to their conduct, and I will judge them by their own standards. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
