< Ezekiel 28 >
1 BOEIPA ol te kai taengah ha pawk tih,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Hlang capa aw, Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he Tyre rhaengsang taengah thui pah. Na lungbuei sang tih, 'Kai la pathen, tuipuei tuilung kah pathen tolrhum ah ka ngol,’ na ti. Tedae nang hlang tangkik loh na lungbuei tah pathen lungbuei la na poek cakhaw na pathen moenih.
And you, son of man, say to the prince of Tyrus, Thus says the Lord; Because your heart has been exalted, and you have said, I am God, I have inhabited the dwelling of God in the heart of the sea; yet you are man and not God, though you have set your heart as the heart of God:
3 Daniel lakah Daniel la na cueih ta te. A kael boeih khaw nang ham a hmuep moenih ko te.
are you wiser than Daniel? or have not the wise instructed you with their knowledge?
4 Na cueihnah neh na lungcuei lamloh na thadueng la na saii. Na thakvoh khuiah sui neh cak na hen.
Hast you gained power for yourself by your [own] knowledge or your [own] prudence, and [gotten] gold and silver in your treasures?
5 Na hnothungnah dongah na cueihnah khaw puh tih na thadueng sai van. Tedae na thadueng dongah na thinko sang.
By your abundant knowledge and your traffic you have multiplied your power; your heart has been lifted up by your power.
6 Na thinko te pathen kah lungbuei bangla na ngai dongah ni ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he he a thui.
Therefore thus says the Lord; Since you have set your heart as the hart of God;
7 Te dongah ni hlanghaeng neh namtom kholong te nang taengla kang khuen he. A cunghang neh na cueihnah sakthen te a khoh uh vetih na omyalnah khaw a poeih ni.
because of this, behold, I [will] bring on you strange plagues from the nations; and they shall draw their swords against you, and against the beauty of your knowledge,
8 Vaam khuila nang n'suntlak sak uh vetih tuipuei tuilung ah rhok dongkah dueknah neh na duek ni.
and they shall bring down your beauty to destruction. And they shall bring you down; and you shall die the death of the slain in the heart of the sea.
9 Nang aka ngawn kah mikhmuh ah, 'Kai la pathen,’ na ti khaw na ti aya? Nang adam ngawn tah namah aka poeih kut ah na pathen moenih.
Will you indeed say, I am God, before them that kill you? whereas you are man, and not God.
10 Kamah loh ka thui coeng dongah kholong kut ah ni pumdul kah dueknah neh na duek eh. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni,” a ti.
You shall perish by the hands of strangers amongst the multitude of the uncircumcised: for I have spoken it, says the Lord.
11 BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk bal tih,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
12 Hlang capa aw Tyre manghai ham rhahlung phueih pah lamtah amah te thui pah. Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Cueihnah khuengrhueng neh sakthen boeih kah cungkuemnah kutha aka daeng khaw nang ni.
Son of man, take up a lamentation for the prince of Tyre, and say to him, Thus says the Lord God; You are a seal of resemblance, and crown of beauty.
13 Pathen kah dum Eden ah tah lung vang cungkuem te na thoeicamnah tih lungling vaya, lungmik, timsuih, oitha, maihae, minhum khocillung neh tamkuei, na kamrhing neh na rhotak toembael sui hnopai neh nang n'suen khohnin ah ni na khuiah a tawn uh.
You were in the delight of the paradise of God; you have bound upon you every precious stone, the sardius, and topaz, and emerald, and carbuncle, and sapphire, and jasper, and silver, and gold, and ligure, and agate, and amethyst, and chrysolite, and beryl, and onyx: and you have filled your treasures and your stores in you with gold.
14 Nang tah koelhnah aka thingthung cherubim ni. Te dongah ni Pathen kah cimcaihnah tlang ah nang kang khueh. Hmai lungto lakli ah khaw na om tih na pongpa coeng.
From the day that you were created you [was] with the cherub: I set you on the holy mount of God; you were in the midst of the stones of fire.
15 Nang kan suen khohnin lamloh na khuikah dumlai a phoe hil pataeng na longpuei ah na cuemthuek.
You were faultless in your days, from the day that you were created, until iniquity was found in you.
16 Na hnothungnah kah a puhnah lamloh na kotak te kuthlahnah hah tih na tholh. Te dongah ni Pathen kah tlang lamloh nang kam poeih tih hmai lungto lakli lamkah aka thingthung cherubim taeng lamloh nang kam milh sak.
Of the abundance of your merchandise you have filled your storehouses with iniquity, and have sinned: therefore you have been cast down wounded from the mount of God, and the cherub has brought you out of the midst of the stones of fire.
17 Na sakthen dongah na lungbuei khaw sang tih na cueihnah neh na poci. Na omyalnah dongah ni diklai la manghai rhoek kah mikhmuh ah nang kam voeih tih nang te sawt sak ham nang kang khueh.
Your heart has been lifted up because of your beauty; your knowledge has been corrupted with your beauty: because of the multitude of your sins I have cast you to the ground, I have caused you to be put to open shame before kings.
18 Na hnothungnah dumlai dongah namah kathaesainah tah khawk tih na rhokso ni na poeih coeng. Te dongah ni na khui lamloh hmai ka puek sak tih nang n'hlawp. Te vaengah nang aka so boeih kah mikhmuh ah nang te diklai hmaiphu la kang khueh.
Because of the multitude of your sins and the iniquities of your merchandise, I have profaned your sacred things; and I will bring fire out of the midst of you, this shall devour you; and I will make you [to be] ashes upon your land before all that see you.
19 Pilnam khuikah nang aka ming boeih loh nang soah hal uh coeng. Mueirhih la na poeh tanglang tih kumhal duela na phoe pawh,” a ti.
And all that know you amongst the nations shall groan over you: you are gone to destruction, and you shall not exist any more.
20 BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk bal tih,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
21 “Hlang capa aw Sidon te na maelhmai khueh thil lamtah tonghma thil laeh.
Son of man, set your face against Sidon, and prophesy against it,
22 vaengah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he thui pah. Kai loh Sidon nang kam pai thil coeng ne. Na kotak khuiah ka thangpom uh vetih BOEIPA kamah tila m'ming uh bitni. Tholhphu te anih soah ka saii vetih a khuiah ka ciim uh bitni.
and say, Thus says the Lord; Behold, I am against you, O Sidon; and I will be glorified in you; and you shall know that I am the Lord, when I have wrought judgements in you, and I will be sanctified in you.
23 A khuikah duektahaw neh a kawtpoeng ah thii ka tueih vaengah a kaepvai kah cunghang neh a kholung ah a rhok la cungku ni. Te vaengah BOEIPA kamah te m'ming uh bitni.
Blood and death [shall be] in your streets; and [men] wounded with swords shall fall in you and on every side of you; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
24 Te vaengah Israel imkhui ham tangti kah a huet neh hling kah a do khaw om voel mahpawh. A kaepvai boeih lamkah amih aka hnaep long khaw kai he ka Boeipa Yahovah ni tila a ming uh bitni.
And there shall no more be in the house of Israel a thorn of bitterness and a pricking briar proceeding from them that are round about them, who dishonoured them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
25 Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Israel imkhui te pilnam lamloh ka coi. Amih taengla taekyak uh cakhaw namtom mikhmuh kah amih taengah ka ciim coeng. Te dongah a khohmuen ah kho a sak uh ni. Te te ka sal Jakob taengah ka paek coeng.
Thus says the Lord God; I will also gather Israel from the nations, amongst whom they have been scattered, and I will be sanctified amongst them, and before the peoples and nations: and they shall dwell upon their land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.
26 A khuiah ngaikhuek la hing uh vetih im a sak uh ni. Misur a phung uh vetih ngaikhuek la hing uh ni. A kaepvai lamkah amih aka hnaep boeih soah tholhphu ka suk vaengah kai he BOEIPA a Pathen la a ming uh bitni.
Yes, they shall dwell upon it safely, and they shall build houses, and plant vineyards, and dwell securely, when I shall execute judgement on all that have dishonoured them, [even] on those [that are] round about them; and they shall know that I am the Lord their God, and the God of their fathers.
