Ezekiel 3

1 Ogin khat chun kajah a thu aseijin, “Mihem chapa, ipi hile kapeh hohi nen – hiche lekhajol hi nen. Chuti chun chen lang kathusei ho hi Israel mipi gasei peh tan,” eiti.

And He said unto me: 'Son of man, eat that which thou findest; eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.'

2 Hijeh chun kakam kakat leh lekhajol eineh sah e.

So I opened my mouth, and He caused me to eat that roll.

3 “Hichu oiva set in nen,” atin ahi. Chule keiman kanen ahileh hichu kakamah khoiju lhumin alhume.

And He said unto me: 'Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee.' Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.

4 Hichun kajah a “Mihem chapa Israel mipi ho henga khun chen lang kathusei ho hi amaho gaseipeh tan” tin aseije.

And He said unto me: 'Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with My words unto them.

5 Keiman nangma gamdang mi apauvu nangin kahet lou miho koma kasol nahi poi.

For thou art not sent to a people of an unintelligible speech and of a slow tongue, but to the house of Israel;

6 Ahipoi keiman hetkhah lou miho leh kihoupi hahsa miho koma kasol nahipoi.

not to many peoples of an unintelligible speech and of a slow tongue, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, if I sent thee to them, they would hearken unto thee.

7 Ahinlah mipite chun kei thusei angainom lou sang uvin ngainom deh pouvinte. Ijeh inem itile apumpiuva hi milungtah te le milouchalte ahiuve.

But the house of Israel will not consent to hearken unto thee; for they consent not to hearken unto Me; for all the house of Israel are of a hard forehead and of a stiff heart.

8 Ahinlah ven keiman nangma hi amaho tobanga louchal tah leh lungtah tah a kasem nahi.

Behold, I have made thy face hard against their faces, and thy forehead hard against their foreheads.

9 Sontah pen tah sanga tah jon nachalpang kasem peh e. Hijeh chun amaho khu kicha hih in, ahiloule doumah in chon uhen lunghang tah in nahin ve jong leu

As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead; fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, for they are a rebellious house.'

10 Hichun aman abelap in mihem chapa kathuho jouse hi nangma lungchang mong monga longlut masa hen. Nanga ding tumin hicheho chu ngaiphan.

Moreover He said unto me: 'Son of man, all My words that I shall speak unto thee receive in thy heart, and hear with thine ears.

11 Chuti chun namite sohchangho koma khun chen lang chuleh amaho gasei peh tan, “Hichehi thanei vaihom Pakai thusei ahi, ngaiju hen lang ngaihih jong leu gabol in,” atin ahi.

And go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and tell them: Thus saith the Lord GOD; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.'

12 Hichun lhagaovin keima eidomsang in ahile keiman kanung langa thilging lutlut husa gin khat kajan ahi. (Pakai loupina chu amun a chun vahchoijin umhen).

Then a spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the voice of a great rushing: 'Blessed be the glory of the LORD from His place';

13 Hiche ho chu ganhing ho lhaving khat leh khat akijap khah tou gin le amaho noija kangtalai ho ging lullul husa gin chu ahi.

also the noise of the wings of the living creatures as they touched one another, and the noise of the wheels beside them, even the noise of a great rushing.

14 Lhagao chun keima eidomsang in eipo mangtai. Keima lunghang tah le lung chih lah lah a kaumin ahi, ahinlah Pakai chu akhut thahattah chun eituh e.

So a spirit lifted me up, and took me away; and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of the LORD was strong upon me.

15 Hichun Kebar vadung pang Tel-abib mun a Juda sohchang ho chenna munna chun kahung lhunge, kalung akham val in amaho lah a chun nisagi kaga touve.

Then I came to them of the captivity at Tel-abib, that dwelt by the river Chebar, and I sat where they sat; and I remained there appalled among them seven days.

16 Nisagi kichaijin Pakaiyin kakoma thu aseitai, aman aseijin,

And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:

17 “Miihem chapa, keiman nangma hi Israel ngah ding kapansah nahitai. Keija konna thu najah tihtih leh mipi ho chu gangtah in gihsal jengin.

'Son of man, I have appointed thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; and when thou shalt hear a word at My mouth, thou shalt give them warning from Me.

18 Keiman migiloupa chu thina chan gimna chang ding nahitai tia kaseija, ahialah nangin nagihsal louva ahileh amaho chu achonset naova thiden diu ahitai. Chule athinao themmona a chu nang chung kahin del ding ahi.

When I say unto the wicked: Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at thy hand.

19 Nangin nagih salla ahija la amapa chun alung ahei nom louva a chonset jinga ahileh achonset na a chu thiden ding ahitai. Ahinlah nangin keima thu nangai jeh a nahinkho naki huhhong ding ahi.

Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.

20 Michonpha ho chu achonphat nauva konna akihei mang uva akituh oh nao alampiuva kakoi peh akihetmo sah uva ahitah leh thiden diu ahitan, chule nangin nagihsal louva nakoija ahileh achonset nauva thidiu ahitai. Achonphat naoo khat cha jong kigeldoh peh talou diu ahitan, chule themmona chu nachunga kahin lhut ding ahi.

Again, when a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, I will lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die; because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thy hand.

21 Ahinlah michonpha ho chu achonphat nauva konna achonset lou nadiuva nagih salla chule amahon nathusei angai uva achonset dauva ahileh amaho chu hingdoh diu ahi. Chutengleh nangin jong nahinkho nakihuh hing ding ahi.”

Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he took warning; and thou hast delivered thy soul.'

22 Chuin Pakai chun ituh chah in chule ahin seije, “Kipat doh in lang phaicham langa khun chen chule hiche munna chu keiman najah a thu kaseipeh ding nahi,” ati.

And the hand of the LORD came there upon me; and He said unto me: 'Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there speak with thee.'

23 Hijeh chun keijong kakipat doh in kachetai. Chule hiche munna chun Kebar vadung pang kana mu masat tobang chun Pakai loupina chu kamun hichun kamai tolla kasulut tai.

Then I arose, and went forth into the plain; and, behold, the glory of the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.

24 Chuin Lhagao chu kasunga ahung lut in kakeng phang tenin eidin sah tai, Aman eihoulim pin kajah a “Chenlang nainsunga nangma chang kot ga kikha khum tan” ati.

Then spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet; and He spoke with me, and said unto me: 'Go, shut thyself within thy house.

25 Mihem chapa, hiche munna chu nangma khaova naki kanchah a hijeh a chu miho henga nachedoh theilou ding ahi.

But thou, son of man, behold, bands shall be put upon thee, and thou shalt be bound with them, and thou shalt not go out among them;

26 Chule keiman nalei chu nadang chunga kabe den sah a hijeh a chu paomo a naum ding amaho chu nasap set thei louding ahi. Ajeh chu amaho khu doumah bolte ahiuve.

and I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover; for they are a rebellious house.

27 Amavang keiman thu kaseipeh tengleh nalei kalhap kang peh a thu kasei sah ding nahi. Chutengleh nangin amaho koma chu, hiche thanei vaihom Pakai thusei ahi, nati ding ahi. Koi hileh ngai ding goho chun ngaijuhen amavang angainom louho chun ngaida hen ajeh chu ama chu doumah bolte ahiuve.

But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them: Thus saith the Lord GOD; he that heareth, let him hear, and he that forbeareth, let him forbear; for they are a rebellious house.
