Ezekiel 43

1 Te phoeiah kai te vongka taengla n'caeh puei. Vongka te khothoeng longpuei la mael.

Then did he lead me to the gate, even the gate that was turned in an eastern direction.

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 way of the east; and his voice was like a noise of many waters; and the earth gave light from 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 it was like the appearance of the vision which I had seen, yea, like the vision that I had seen when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I had seen by the river Kebar: 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 the Lord came into the house by the way of the gate which was turned in an eastern direction.

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 did the Spirit take me up, and bring me into the inner court: and, behold, the glory of the Lord 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 him speaking unto me out of the house; and a man was standing alongside of 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 unto 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 children of Israel forever: and the house of Israel shall not defile any more my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their lewdness, nor by the carcasses of their kings on their high-places.

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.

Inasmuch as they placed their threshold by my threshold, and their door-posts close by my door-posts, and the wall being only between me and them, and they defiled my holy name by their abominations which they committed; so that I made an end of 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 will they have to put away their lewdness, and the carcasses of their kings, far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of 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.

Thou, son of man, tell the house of Israel of the house, that they may be confounded because of their iniquities: and let them measure the outlines.

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 confounded because of all that they have done: then let them know the form of the house, and its arrangements, and its means of egress, and its entrances, and all its forms, and all its statutes, and all its forms, and all its laws, and write them down before their eyes; that they may observe the whole of its form, and all its statutes, and carry them out.

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 for the house, Upon the top of the mount shall its whole limit all round about be most holy: behold, this is the law for 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 is a cubit and a hand-breadth; and the bottom shall be a cubit high, and a cubit broad, and its border on its edge round about shall be a span: and this shall be the outside 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 up to the lower projection shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser projection up to the greater projection shall be four cubits, and the breadth one cubit.

15 Hmueihtuk tlang te hmueihtuk lamloh dong li hil a ki pali la cawn hang.

And the upper portion of the altar shall be four cubits; and from the upper surface of the altar and upward shall be the four horns.

16 Hmueihtuk te a yun hlai nit, a daang hlai nit neh a vae pali la hniboeng bangla om.

And the upper surface of the altar shall be twelve cubits long, by twelve broad, 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 projection shall be fourteen cubits in length, by fourteen in breadth on its four sides; and the border round about it shall be half a cubit; and its bottom 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 unto me, Son of man, thus hath said the Lord Eternal, These are the statutes of the altar on the day when it shall be finished, to offer thereon burnt-offerings, and to sprinkle thereon 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.

And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that are of the seed of Zadok, who approach unto me, saith the Lord Eternal, to minister unto me, 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 his blood, and put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of the projection, and upon the border round about; and thou shalt cleanse it and make an atonement for 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 some one shall burn him at an 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 shalt thou offer a he-goat without blemish for a sin-offering: and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse 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.

When thou hast made an end of cleansing it, shalt thou 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 bring them near before the Lord, and the priests shall throw salt upon them, and they shall offer them up as a burnt-offering unto 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.

Seven days shalt thou prepare a goat for a sin-offering every day; and a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish shall they prepare.

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 atone for the altar and purify it; and they shall consecrate the same.

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 are expired, it shall be, that on the eighth day, and thenceforward, the priests shall prepare upon the altar your burnt-offerings, and your peace-offerings: and I will accept you in favor, saith the Lord Eternal.
