< Ezekiel 7 >
1 BOEIPA ol kai taengla ha pawk tih,
Yahweh gave me another message. [He said]
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.
“You human, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say to [the people] [MTY] of Israel: All of Israel will soon be destroyed.
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.
[people of Israel], the end has come. I will punish you severely. I will judge you for all the wicked things that you have done, and pay you back for your disgusting behavior.
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 pity you or act mercifully toward you. I will [surely] punish you for your wicked behavior [DOU]. Then you will know that [it has happened because] I, Yahweh, [have done it].”
5 “Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Yoethae lah pakhat kah yoethae thoeng he.
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “You will soon experience many terrible disasters!
6 A bawtnah ha pawk coeng. A bawtnah ha pawk coeng. Haenghang tih nang taengla ha pawk coeng ke.
This will be the [of Israel]; your country will be finished! And your [lives] will be ended [PRS]!
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.
It will be the end of you people who live in the [of Israel]. The time has come; the [when you will be destroyed] is near. At that time [the people who worship idols] on the mountains will not be happy; they will panic.
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.
I am very angry with you and am about to pour out my punishment [MTY] on you. I will judge you for all the wicked things that you have done and pay you back for your disgusting behavior.
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 pity you or act mercifully toward you. I will surely punish you for your wicked behavior [DOU]. Then you will know that it is I, Yahweh, who have punished you.
10 “Khohnin ha pai coeng he, cangen khaw yulh coeng he. Conghol loh khooi tih althanah khaw muem coeng.
The [of your punishment] is here! It has arrived! Disasters have come.
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.
People are acting violently and doing more wicked things. And nothing that belongs to those people will be left, none of their money, nothing that is valuable.
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.
Now is the time; that day has arrived.
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.
People who buy things should not [because of buying things very cheaply], and those who sell things should not be [because they had to sell things cheaply], [Yahweh] will be punishing [MTY] everyone. During the rest of their lives, people who sell some of their property will never be able to buy it back, because I, Yahweh, will never change my mind about what I have declared; because of your sins, [I will destroy] all of you people.
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.
Even though [soldiers] blow [to prepare for] a battle, no soldier will go into a battle, because I will have killed all of them.
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.
[When those things happen, your enemies] will be [the city] with their swords, and there will be plagues and famines [the city]. [who flee from the city] into the countryside will be killed [their enemies’] swords, and those who stay in the city will die from famines and plagues.
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.
Those who survive and escape will flee to the mountains, and they all will moan like doves because of their sins.
17 Kut khaw boeih kha vetih khuklu khaw tui la boeih poeh ni.
[Because everyone will be very afraid, ] all the people’s hands will become limp and their knees will become very weak.
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 clothes made from rough cloth, and they will be terrified. Their faces will show that they are ashamed, and they will shave their [to show that they are very sad].
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 consider that their gold is only like [SIM] garbage, because they will realize that their silver and gold will not be able to rescue them when I, Yahweh, punish them. They will not be able to use their gold and silver to buy things to fill their stomachs, because having a lot of gold and silver has led them to sin.
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.
They were proud of their beautiful jewelry, and they used it to make their detestable idols and disgusting [of their gods]. So I will cause them to be disgusted with those things.
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.
I will give their silver and gold to foreigners who invade your country and take away your valuable treasures. I will give those things to wicked people, and they will do disgraceful things to those treasures that I give 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 not (interfere with/stop) [IDM] robbers when they enter my sacred temple and desecrate it.
23 “Khohmuen he thii kah laitloeknah bae tih khopuei he kuthlahnah a khawk coeng dongah thirhui saii uh laeh.
Prepare chains to be fastened on you. People are being murdered [MTY] throughout the country, and people are acting violently throughout the city.
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 armies of the nations whose people are extremely wicked to occupy the houses of the Israeli people. I will cause Israeli [who think that they] are [IRO] strong/mighty to no longer be proud. Your enemies will cause your places of worship to no longer be acceptable to be used.
25 Mitmoengnah a pai dongah ngaimongnah tlap uh cakhaw dang uh mahpawh.
When your enemies cause you to be terrified, you will plead for them to make peace, but there will be no peace.
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.
You will experience many disasters, and you will continually hear [about disasters that are happening in other places]. People will plead with prophets to tell them what visions they have received, [but the prophets will not have received any visions]. Priests will no longer teach people the [that I gave to Moses].
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.
Your king will mourn, and his son will no [longer] [that good things will happen]. The hands of people throughout the country will tremble. And I will do to them what they deserve for their wicked behavior. I will [and condemn] them the same way they have [and condemned] others. Then they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
