Ezekiel 14

1 Hitah chun Israel sunga lamkai phabep kahenga ahungun, hitia amaho kakoma atou pet un,

Then came there unto me certain men of the elders of Israel, and sat down before me.

2 Kahenga Pakaija konin hiche thuhi ahung lhunge.

And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

3 Mihem chapa, hiche lamkai hohin alungsung uva milim doi kisemthu akitun u ahi. Amahon chonsetna alhuh nadiu thilho chu akol chahkheh un ahi. Ipi jeh a athum nau chu kangai peh ding ham?

Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and the stumbling-block of their iniquity have they placed before their faces: shall I in any wise let myself be inquired of by them?

4 Hiche hi thaneitah Pakai thusei ahi tin seipeh in. Israel mipi ten alungthim sung uva milim doi kisemthu akitun soh kei u ahi. Chonsetna lha ahitauvin, chuti chun amaho themgao ho koma thu aga dong jiuve.

Therefore speak with them and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Whatever man it be of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and layeth the stumbling-block of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet: I the Lord will answer him, although he cometh with the multitude of his idols;

5 Hijeh a chu Pakai keiman, amaho chu nasatah a amilim doi hou nauva akhol khom jat dungjui ja kahin donbut diu ahi. Hiche ho kidah dah um amilim doi hounauva konna kamite lungthim leh alungchang u kakhum khom theina ding uva kabol dingu ahi.

In order that I may grasp the house of Israel by their heart, those who are separated from me through all their idols.

6 Hiche jeh chun Israel mipite chu seipeh in, hiche hi thaneitah Pakai thusei ahi. Kisih unlang namilim doi hou nauva konin kihei mangun. Chuleh kidah dah um nachonset nau chu ngau vin.

Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Return, and cause [your heart] to turn away from your idols: and from all your abominations turn away your faces.

7 Kei Pakaiyin Israel insung mi hihen, gamdang mi hijongle, keima eipaija alungchang uva milim doi kitundoh a chonsetna lha ho, chule kei thuhil ngaicha a themgao ho koma che jouse agoma donbutna kapeh ding ahi.

For whatever man it be of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourneth in Israel, that separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and layeth the stumbling-block of his iniquity before his face, and then cometh to the prophet to inquire through him of me: I the Lord will answer him through my word;

8 Hitobanga chon miho douna a kahung kiheija amaho dinga tijat umtah vetsahna kapeh a, kamite a konna amaho hi kasuhmang jeng ding ahi. Hiteng chule nangin keihi Pakai kahi ti nahin hetdoh ding ahi.

And I will set my face against that man, and will make him an astonishment for a sign and for proverbs, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

9 Chuleh ijemtia themgaopa thusei dinga akijou klhep lhah khah tah a ahileh, hiche themgao pachu keima Pakaiyin kajou lhep jeh hiding ahi. Keiman hiche themgao pa chunga chu kakhut tum kahin lap sanga, Israel mite lah a konna amaho chu kasat lhah ding ahi.

And when the prophet suffereth himself to be deceived, and he speaketh a word: I the Lord have suffered that prophet to be deceived: and I will stretch out my hand against him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.

10 Themgao lhem ho leh amaho lamkai ngaichaho jouse chu achonset nau jeh a talen kapeh soh kei diu ahi.

And they shall bear their guilt: as the guilt of the inquirer is, so shall the guilt of the prophet be;

11 Hitia hi Israel mipi te keija konna vahmang kit talou hel diu ahi. Amaho leh amaho chonsetna a kisuboh kit talou diu ahi. Amaho chu kamite hiuva chuleh keima a Pathen u kahi ding ahi, tia Pakai kitipa keiman kaseidoh ahi.

In order that the house of Israel may go no more astray by not following me, and not pollute themselves any more with all their transgressions; but that they may become unto me a people, and I may be unto them a God, saith the Lord Eternal.

12 Chutah chun hiche thusei hi kahenga Pakaija kon in ahung lhunge.

And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

13 Mihem chapa, gamsung khat a mite chu kei dounan hung chonse kha ta leu, keiman amaho suhchipna dinga kakhut kahin lap a aneh hol nau lampi kasuhtang peh a, mihem leh gancha agoma suhmang nadinga kel kalhah sah ding ahi.

Son of man, if a land should sin against me by trespassing grievously, and I stretch out my hand against it, and break unto it the staff of bread, and send out famine against it, and cut off from it man and beast;

14 Noah, Daniel chule Job ho jeng jong achonphat nauvin midang khat jong ahuhhing jou pouvin, amavang amaho changseh bou akihuhhing jou uve, tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije.

And if there be these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, in the midst of it: these through their righteousness should save but their own soul; saith the Lord Eternal.

15 Ahilouleh keiman gamsa ho chu agamsunga kadel khum sah a miho chu athauva chuleh agam chu mi chen louna gam aso uva, chuleh koiman ajot le ngamlou ding ahitai. Ajotpa le ho dinga kichat tijat um kahisah thei ahi.

If I cause wild beasts to pass through the land, and they depopulate it, and it becometh desolate, without any one to pass through because of the beasts:

16 Adihtah mong mongin, keiman kahin laisen pasal thum ana umkhom kha tajong leu achapa teu leh achanu teu huhdoh jou pouvintin, amaho changseh bou kihuhdoh uva, amavang agamsung uhi ahomkeu kiso ding ahi.

These three men [if they were] in it, as I live, saith the Lord Eternal, should not save either sons or daughters: they only should be saved, but the land should be made desolate.

17 Ahilouleh agamsung douna a gal kahin pohlut khuma chule mihem leh ganchaho sumang dinga melma sepaite kahin sollut khum thei ahi.

Or, if I should bring a sword over that land, and say, The sword shall pass through the land, and I cut off from it man and beast;

18 Adih tahbeh mongin keima kahin laisen tin thaneipen Pakijin aseije. Pasal thum ana umkhom jong leu amaho chapate leh chanuteu huhdoh jou pouvintin, amaho changseh bou kihuhdoh jou diu ahi,

And if these three men should be in it: as I live, saith the Lord Eternal, they should not save either sons or daughters, but they alone should be saved.

19 Ahiloule keiman kalungsatna hi agamsunga natna hi kasunlhah khuma chuleh hiche natna chun mihem leh gancha kibanga athagam sah thei ahi.

Or, if I should send out the pestilence against that land, and pour out my fury over it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast;

20 Atahbeh mongin keima kahin laisen tin thaneipen Pakaiyin aseije. Noah, Daniel, Job ho ana umun, amahon amaho chapte leh achanuteu ana kihuhdoh jou pouve. Achonphat nauvin amaho bouseh akihuhhing jouvun ahi.

And if Noah, Daniel, and Job, should be in the midst of it: as I live, saith the Lord Eternal, they should not save either son or daughter; they through their righteousness should save their own soul.

21 Tun thaneipen Pakai thusei chu hiche hi ahi. Jerusalem chunga hiche engbolna hoise tah tah liho hung lhung ding hi ichan a tijat um hiding hitam? Gala kisat a kel lha, gamsaho, chuleh natna hise amanu amite leh aganchate jouse sumang dinga hung lhung ding ahi tin aseije.

For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Although I send my four dreadful means of punishment over Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the wild beasts, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast:

22 Ahijeng vang'in ahing doh umnalai ding ahin, amaho chun Babylon langa delmanga umdinga nangma nung ahin jui diu ahi. Itobang tah a migilou hiuvem? ti nangin namit tah a nahin mu ding, hiteng chule keiman Jerusalema ipi kabol ding ham ti nahet doh thei ding ahi.

Still, behold, there are left therein some that escape who shall be carried forth, both sons and daughters; behold, they are coming forth unto you, and ye will see their way and their doings; and then will ye be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, yea, concerning all that I have brought upon it;

23 Nangin amaho nakimuto pi tengleh aum chanu nahin mu a, hitobang thil hohi ajeh beija kabol ahilou chu nahin hetdoh ding ahi tia keima thaneipen Pakaiyin kasei ahi.

And they will comfort you, when ye see their way and their doings; and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have executed in it, saith the Lord Eternal.
