< Ezekiel 23 >

1 Pakaija konin hiche thusei hi kahenga ahung lhunge.
The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
2 “Mihem chapa, phatkhat chun minu khatseh chanu ucha numei ni ana um lhone.
“Son of man, there were two women, daughters of the same mother.
3 Amani chu Egypt gam'a notin apang lhone. Numei chapang cha ahilai lhonna patna chu pasalho anoi amehsah pan lhon ahitai.
They acted as prostitutes in Egypt in the time of their youth. They acted as prostitutes there. Their breasts were squeezed and their virgin nipples were fondled there.
4 Numei alenjo nu chu amin Oholah akitin chule asopinu chu Oholiba ahi. Keiman amani kaki chenpin amanin chapate le Chanute eihin peh lhone. Keiman Samaria le Jerusalem thu a kasei ahi, ajeh chu Oholah ahin chule Oholibah hi Jerusalem ahi.
Their names were Oholah—the older sister—and Oholibah—her younger sister. Then they became mine and bore sons and daughters. Their names mean this: Oholah means Samaria, and Oholibah means Jerusalem.
5 Hitichun Oholah chun kei sangin adeichat dang ho chunga alunglut jon chule angailutna chu Asyria milen ho chu anapen ahi.
But Oholah acted as a prostitute even when she was mine; she lusted for her lovers, for the Assyrians who were dominant,
6 Amaho chu deichat chat um gollhang khangdong ahiuvin, sepai captain ho leh thupeh pea vaihom lea pang ho ahiuvin vanduma dum von hoitah tah a kivon, sakol touthem ahiuvin sakolho chunga ahung touve.
the governor who wore blue, and for his officials, who were strong and handsome, all of them men riding on horses.
7 Chule hiche Assyria mei dei dei um mi ho koma chun amale ama notin aga kijoh un, amilim doiju ahouvin, hiti chun amale ama akisuboh in ahi.
So she gave herself as a prostitute to them, to all the best of Assyria's men, and she made herself unclean with everyone she lusted for—and with all their idols.
8 Ajeh chu aman Egypt gam ahin dalhah a chu anoti chon chu anunga ahin dalhah den lou ahi. Amanu chu akhangdon laiya patna ana huh jing ahin, hitia chu Egypt mite nana luppi teng uleh anoi teni jong ana meh peh peh uva chuleh amanu chu noti a ana man u ahi.
For she had not left her prostitute behavior behind in Egypt, when they had slept with her when she had been a young girl, when they first began to fondle her virgin breasts, when they first began to pour out their promiscuous behavior on her.
9 Ahijeh chun amanu chu adeichat Assyria miho alunglut behsehna miho khutna kana pedoh tai.
Therefore I gave her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians for whom she lusted.
10 Amahon amanu chu avon asutlhah peh un achate soh dingin apuimang un chuti chun amanu chu athat tauve. Amanun aki engbolna chengse athoh chai phat in amanu phatna chu gamsungah numei jouse het in ahung um tai.
They uncovered her nakedness, took her sons and daughters, killed her with the sword, and she became notorious among other women, so they executed judgment on her.
11 Oholibah in amanu sopinu Oholah chunga thilsoh jouse amu jengin jong amanu khonung chu kitohchet in ajuijin ahi. Chuleh amanu chu aphatmo sah dehset in, amanu chu atahsa ngaichat le a noti chonna chun achemang tan ahi.
Her sister Oholibah saw this, but she lusted even more passionately and acted like a prostitute even more than her sister.
12 Amanu chu Assyria miten milal ho sepai captain chule natoh ding pea vaihoma pangho galvon lhingsetna hoitah tah a kivon ho galkonna sakol kangtalai tolho, akang talaija hung ho, lunglut um tahtah golhang ho jeng chunga chun akitau len ahi.
She lusted for the Assyrians, the governors and the dominating officials who dressed impressively, who were men riding horses. All of them were strong, handsome men.
13 Keiman a unu bang banga amaleh ama akisuhboh jengna chu kamun ahi.
I saw that she had made herself unclean. It was the same for both sisters.
14 “Hiti chun amanun a noti chonna a chun achebe jing nalaije. Amanun banga kisem milim ho chu adeichan, Babylon sepai officerho thilkeu manchah angaicha jouse toh galvon sanna kivon ho lim chu ahi.
Then she increased her prostitution even more. She saw men carved on walls, figures of Chaldeans painted in red,
15 Kong gah hoitah tah a akong kigah a aluchung uva lallukhuh banga delkop kikop ho, amaho chu Babylon gam'a hung kon sakol kangtalaija vaihom ho ahiuve.
wearing belts around their waists, with flowing turbans on their heads. All of them had the appearance of officers of chariot troops, the likeness of sons of Babylonia, whose native land is Chaldea.
16 Amanun hiche milim kisem ho chu amu phat in amaleh ama koma kipeh lut ding angaicha lheh e. Hijeh chun amanu in Babylon a konna amanu koma ahung nadiuva gahou dingin thupole mi asolin ahi.
As soon as her eyes saw them, she lusted for them, so she sent out messengers to them in Chaldea.
17 Hijeh chun amaho ahungun chuleh amanu chutoh ajong uvin akidei nau jalkhun chungah chun amanu chu asuboh un ahi. Akisuhboh jou nungin amanun apaidoh in ahung kilep doh tai.
Then the Babylonians came to her and to her bed of lust, and they made her unclean with their promiscuousness. By what she had done she was made unclean, so she turned herself away from them in disgust.
18 Hitobang ma chun keiman Oholibah chu kakidah in, chule amanu asopinu kanotdoh bang chun kanot doh tai. Ajeh chu amanu chu amaho masanga kiletsah tah a gakilah ah ahi. Chuleh ama cham tah in atahsa ngaichat suhbulhit nadingin aga kipedoh in ahi.
When she displayed her acts of prostitution and uncovered her nakedness, I turned away from her, just as I had turned away in disgust from her sister.
19 Ahijeng vang'in a noti chonna chu ahabol be cheh cheh jengin, anungah tillaija Egypt gam'a a noti chonna ho jong ageldoh in ahi.
Then she increased her prostitution as she remembered the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in the land of Egypt.
20 Adeichat ho chunga atahsa ngaichat alunglut val jeh in ajunthahna jong sangan ho bangin alendoh in abotwi ho jong sakolla toh abange.
So she lusted for her lovers, whose private parts were like those of donkeys, and whose reproductive emissions were like those of horses.
21 Chuti ahijeh chun Oholibah Egypt gam nanungah tillaija naumchan ho nanoi teni miho nana mehsah ji lai ho chu nanung ngaichat jing nalaije.
This is how you committed shameful acts of your youth, when the Egyptians fondled your nipples and squeezed your young breasts.
22 Hiche jeh a chu Oholibah hiche hi thaneitah Pakai thusei ahi. Keiman nakidah a nahin dalhah namtin vaipi ho mong mong chu nangma dou ding muntinna konna kahin sol doh peh ding nahi.
Therefore, Oholibah, the Lord Yahweh says this, 'Behold! I will turn your lovers against you. Those from whom you turned away, I will bring them against you from every side:
23 Hitia chu Babylon mite chu Chaldea mite toh Pekod leh Shoa chule Koa kon hung diu ahi. Chule Assyria mite chu khangthah melhoi tah tah captain ho commander ho sakol kangtalaija vaihom ho chule tohmun sangtah tah lamkai ho chutoh sakong chunga touvin hungunte.
the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, Pekod, Shoa, and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them, strong, handsome men, governors and commanders, all of them are officers and men of reputation, all of them riding on horses.
24 Amaho chu nang dou dingin sahlanga konin sakol kangtalai leh kangtalaija galbol khum ding kigosa sepai hon tamtah toh hung diu ahi. Amaho chu mihem lum leh thih lukhuh kikhuh pasal ho toh nakim vel jouse pan mun ahin kisem diu ahi. Chule keiman nangma ama khut a chu na engbol diuva kapeh doh a chutia chu amahon alungdei dei uva nabol thei diu ahi.
They will come against you with weapons, and with chariots and wagons, and with a great crowd of people. They will set large shields, small shields, and helmets against you all around. I will give them the opportunity to punish you, and they will punish you with their actions.
25 Keiman thangtom tah a kalung hanna chu kahin buhlah khuma hitia chu amahon khautah a nabol dingu ahi. Amahon nanah leh nabilkol atlhau vintin chuleh hichea konna hing doh ho chu chemajama kisat tel tel diu ahi. Chule nachateu chu songkulla hen dinga kikai mang uva nathil keuvu nadalhahsa jouseu chu kihal lhading ahi.
For I will set my jealous anger on you, and they will deal with you in fury. They will cut off your noses and your ears, and your survivors will fall by the sword. They will take away your sons and your daughters, and your survivors will be devoured by fire.
26 Amahon napon hoitah tah hole nasong mantam ho chu nasutlhah peh dingu ahi.
They will strip you of your clothes and take away all of your jewelry.
27 Hitia a hi keiman Egypt gam'a konna nahin kipohdoh najon lungput leh na noti chonna chu kasuh tang peh ding nahi. Hiche teng chuleh nangin hiche thilho vetna chu namit heidoh lou ding ahiloule Egypt gam'a naum phat laiho nanung geldoh kitlou ding ahitai.
So I will remove your shameful behavior from you and your acts of prostitution from the land of Egypt. You will not lift up your eyes toward them with longing, and you will think of Egypt no longer.'
28 Hiche jeh a chu thaneitah Pakaiyin hiche thuhi asei ahi. Keiman namelma ho khutna kapeh doh teitei ding ahi. Nabol nom louho nanot thap ho.
For the Lord Yahweh says this, 'Behold! I will give you into the hand of the ones you hate, back into the hand of the ones from whom you had turned away.
29 Amahon thet um tahtah a nabol uva nanei jouse nana lahpeh uva, nasaguoh keu le natahsa keuva ana dalhah diu ahi. Nanoti chonna jachat umtah chu vannoija kiphongdoh ding ahi.
They will deal with you hatefully; they will take all your possessions and abandon you naked and bare, and your nakedness will be uncovered just as when you engaged in promiscuity and prostitutions.
30 Nangman hiche ho jouse hi namdang ho koma noti chonna nachon a, milim doi hou jouseuva nakisuhboh jeh a nangma chunga nakipoh lut khum ahi.
These things will be done to you in your acting like a prostitute, lusting after nations by which you became unclean with their idols.
31 Ajeh chu nangin nasopinu khonung najui jeh ahi. Amanun tijat kichatna dimset adonna khonna chu nang jong nada nacham louva kadon sah ding nahi.
You have walked in the way of your sister, so I will put her cup of punishment into your hand.'
32 “Henge hiche hi thaneitah Pakai thusei ho chu ahi. Nangin tijat kichatna dimset khonna adon banga chu nadon ding ahi. Khon lentah leh thutah chu pampai naleh nuijat um dimset ahi.
The Lord Yahweh says this, 'You will drink your sister's cup that is deep and large. You will become a laughingstock and a subject for derision—this cup contains a great amount.
33 Jukham nale lungnatna a dimin natin ajeh chu nakhon hi angong geija lungnatna jeng leh suhgentheina kisung dimset ahi. Hiche khon mama a chu nasopinu Samaria in adon ahi.
You will be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, the cup of horror and devastation; the cup of your sister Samaria.
34 Nangin kichat tijatna dimset khon chu kang hella atogei nadon jou chutia chu nangin ahal hala nasuh chip a chuleh lung natah a naop nachup ding ahi. Keima thaneitah Pakaiyin kaseijesa ahi.
You will drink it and drain it empty; then you will shatter it and tear your breasts with the pieces. For I have declared it—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'
35 Chuleh nangin keima nei sumil in chuleh nei nungat e. Najon lungput leh na noti chonna konna hungsoh doh ho jouse chu nathoh ding ahi tia hiche thaneitah Pakai thusei ahi.
Therefore, the Lord Yahweh says this, 'Because you have forgotten me and thrown me away behind your back, so also you will bear the consequences of your shameful behavior and acts of sexual immorality.'”
36 Pakaiyin kahenga aseije. Mihem chapa nangin Oholah le Oholibah kidah dah um achonsetna ho jouse chunga themmona nachan sah ding ahi.
Yahweh said to me, “Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? So present to them their disgusting actions,
37 Amanin jonthanhoi le toltha akop lhonin milim doi semthu hou jeh a jonga ahin, chule keija dinga ahinsa achate govam thilto ato jeh a tolthat hi ahi.
since they have committed adultery, and since there is blood on their hands. They have committed adultery with their idols, and they have even caused their sons to pass through the fire, as food for their idols.
38 Hicheng chungchon in ka houin asuboh uvin chule ka cholngah nikho asukeh uve.
Then they continue to do this to me: They make my sanctuary unclean, and on the same day they defile my Sabbaths.
39 Achateu milim doi semthu hounan akatdoh nikho tah chun kitahsan tah leh hangsan tah in Pathen hou din ka houin sungah ahung lut un ahi. Amaho chu ahung lut in kahouin asuboh uve.
For when they had slaughtered their children for their idols, then they came to my sanctuary on the same day to defile it! So behold! This is what they have done in the middle of my house.
40 Na ucha lhonin gamla tah a pasal ahung nadiuvin thupole ho asol hone. Chutia amaho ahung lhun phat uvin nang le nang naga kisil thengin, namit a mitlou nakinun, chule na song mantam hoipen in amaho dingin nakijem in ahi.
You sent out for men who came from far away, to whom messengers had been sent—now behold. They indeed came, those for whom you bathed, painted your eyes, and adorned yourself with jewelry.
41 Pahcha jem hoitah a kijem touna sau hoipen chunga chun amaho toh natou khomin, chule ka gim namtwi leh kathao namtwisel ho chu dokhang chunga namasanga kathenam in ahi.
There you sat on a beautiful bed and at a table arranged before it where you placed my incense and my oil.
42 Napindan sunga konin anneh khom bolla poh cheichui ho husan akijan ahi. Hiche munna chun gammang lah a kon jon lungputna dimset pasal ho leh jukham ho chun nakhut chau nabu peh un naluchunga lallukhuh nakhuh peh uve.
So the sound of a noisy crowd was around her; including all kinds of men, even Sabeans were brought in from the wilderness, and they put bracelets on their hands and beautiful crowns on their heads.
43 Hichun keiman kaseijin, hitia hi amahon noti twitah leh thacholsa chu aluppi nom uleh luppi tauvinte kati.
Then I said of her who was worn out by adultery, 'Now they will be sexually immoral with her, and she with them.'
44 Chuleh hichu amahon abol'u chu ahin, hiche jum lam helou Oholah le Oholibah toh alumkhom tauve.
They went in to her and slept with her as men go in to be with a prostitute. In this way they slept with Oholah and Oholibah, who were immoral women.
45 Amani ajonthan hoi naleh atolthana khopi u chu numei teni chung thuhi michonpha hon ahin tan dingu ahi.
But righteous men will pass judgment and punish them as adulteresses, and they will punish them with the sentence for those who shed blood, because they are adulteresses and blood is on their hands.
46 Tun thaneitah Pakai thusei hiche hi ahi. Amaho doudin sepai ho hin puijin lang chuleh kichatsah dingleh athil lahpeh dingin amaho khut ah pedoh in.
So the Lord Yahweh says this: I will raise up a company against them and give them up to be terrorized and plundered.
47 Ajeh chu amelma teuvin songa aaseuva chule chemjama asatlih diu ahi. Achapa teule achanu teu satha a athapeh uva chule a in hou ahallhah peh dingu ahi.
Then that company will stone them with stones and cut them down with their swords. They will kill their sons and daughters and burn down their houses.
48 Hitia hi ajon thanhoi nauleh amilim doihou nau gamsunga kangah sah a chule hiche kathutan hi midang hon gitlouna lampia ache lou nadiuva kihilna khat hidinga kabol ahi.
For I will remove shameful behavior from the land and discipline all the women so they will no longer act like prostitutes.
49 Na noti chonna leh namilim doi hou nauhi bulhingsetna lethuhna kahin peh ding nahi. Henge gotna bulhingsetna nangin nathoh ding ahi. Hitia chu nangin keima hi thaneitah Pakai kahi ti nahin hetdoh ding ahi.
So they will set your shameful behavior against you. You will bear the guilt of your sins with your idols, and in this way you will know that I am the Lord Yahweh.”
