< Ezekiel 1 >
1 Juda mi Babylon gam Chebar vadung pang a sohchang ho lah a kana umna kum somle kumthum alhin kum July 31 lhinni achun van ana kihongin chule Pathen thilmu theina chu kana mui.
And it cometh to pass, in the thirtieth year, in the fourth [month], in the fifth of the month, and I [am] in the midst of the Removed by the river Chebar, the heavens have been opened, and I see visions of God.
2 Hiche hi Jehoiachin lengpa asohchan jou kal kum nga lhin kuma chu soh ahi.
In the fifth of the month — it is the fifth year of the removal of the king Jehoiachin —
3 (Pakaiyin hiche thuhi Buzi chapa Ezekiel thempupa kom a Babylon lenggam Chebar vadung panga aum petna anapeh ahin, chule Pakai khut chu achungah ana kingame)
hath the word of Jehovah certainly been unto Ezekiel son of Buzi the priest, in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river Chebar, and there is on him there a hand of Jehovah.
4 Keiman kavet pettah chun Sahlam a kon huipi gopi nasatah ahung kitol kamun, Meilhang lentah masanga kolphe toh kitho a vah pempumin ahunge. Meilom lah a chun meikou aumin, chule meikou lailunga chun khichang tobang meikou vahlap lap aume.
And I look, and lo, a tempestuous wind is coming from the north, a great cloud, and fire catching itself, and brightness to it round about, and out of its midst as the colour of copper, out of the midst of the fire.
5 Meilom lailunga kon chun mihem melput tobang thil hing thei li ahung doh e.
And out of its midst [is] a likeness of four living creatures, and this [is] their appearance; a likeness of man [is] to them,
6 Maili leh lhaving li aneiyu tailouvin,
and four faces [are] to each, and four wings [are] to each of them,
7 Akeng hou chu ajangpet in, akengphangu chu bongnou keng to abangin alange.
and their feet [are] straight feet, and the sole of their feet [is] as a sole of a calf's foot, and they are sparkling as the colour of bright brass;
8 Alhaving li noicheh a chun mihem ho khut kamu doh e.
and hands of man under their wings — on their four sides, and their faces and their wings — [are] to them four;
9 Ahingthei ho lhaving ho chu khat le khat akijop jel cheh in ahi. Khat cheh a chu akipat doh teng leh kihei louvin jangpet in masang lam ngan akijot jiuve.
joining one unto another [are] their wings, they turn not round in their going, each straight forward they go.
10 Amasang uva chun mihem mai aneiyun, ajetlang uva chun keipi mai aneiyun, aveilang uva chun bongchal mai aneiyun, chule anung lam uva chun muvanlai mai anei cheh uve.
As to the likeness of their faces, the face of a man, and the face of a lion, toward the right [are] to them four, and the face of an ox on the left [are] to them four, and the face of an eagle [are] to them four.
11 Khat cheh chun lhaving kijal doh kopni cheh aneiyun, kopn khat cheh chu akijal doh teng ganhing achom khat cheh lhaving chutoh akijop mat jel jengin, chule kop khat cheh chun atahsao akhu chah kheh cheh un ahi.
And their faces and their wings are separate from above, to each [are] two joining together, and two are covering their bodies.
12 Amaho chu ipi hijongle lhagaovin alhenpeh nalam ngan ajet aveija kiheidoh lou hellin jangpet in ache pai jeng jiuve.
And each straight forward they go, whither the spirit is to go, they go, they turn not round in their going.
13 Ganhing liho chu meihol ampem puma kou abangin, ahilouleh meisel lou vah pempum kide abangin, chule kolphe vah bangin amaho lah a chun aki nungtol akima tollun ahi.
As to the likeness of the living creatures, their appearances [are] as coals of fire — burning as the appearance of lamps; it is going up and down between the living creatures, and brightness [is] to the fire, and out of the fire is going forth lightning.
14 Chule ganhing liho chu kolphe vahlap lap bang khun achom le jap jap jeng uvin ahi.
And the living creatures are running, and turning back, as the appearance of the flash.
15 Hitia keiman ganhing liho chu kavetna ahileh leiset chunga chun kangtalai kang ho chu akomuva chun kamun kang khat cheh chu amaho khat cheh a achandiu chu ahi.
And I see the living creatures, and lo, one wheel [is] in the earth, near the living creatures, at its four faces.
16 Kangtalai khat cheh chu hoitah a vahsetna song en tobanga kisemin akimun, liho chu abpn uvin kibang cheh akimun, chule amaho chu kibang cheh a kisem ahiuvin kang khat cheh velkol a chu kangni na aneicheh uve.
The appearance of the wheels and their works [is] as the colour of beryl, and one likeness [is] to them four, and their appearances and their works [are] as it were the wheel in the midst of the wheel.
17 Hiche ho chu akitol tengule kihei lou hella gamkai li a achu angat na lam lama chu kihei jeng thei ahiuve.
On their four sides, in their going they go, they turn not round in their going.
18 Hiche kang li ho chu sang tah cheh ahiuvin, chule timul tho aumin, chule akang ho kimvel a chun met jeng mit jeng in atom dimsetne.
As to their rings, they are both high and fearful, and their rings [are] full of eyes round about them four.
19 Ganhing ho chu ache tenguleh kangtalai kang ho jong chu amaho toh thakhat'in achekhom jiuvin, chung langa alen tou teng uleh akang ho jong chu ache tou jiuve.
And in the going of the living creatures, the wheels go beside them, and in the living creatures being lifted up from off the earth, lifted up are the wheels.
20 Ganhing ho lhagao chu akang ho a chu uma ahi. Hijeh a chu lhagao chena lam lama chu akang ho le ganhing ho jong che jiu ahi.
Whither the spirit is to go, they go, thither the spirit [is] to go, and the wheels are lifted up over-against them, for a living spirit [is] in the wheels.
21 Hiche ho chu ache teng uleh akang ho chu che jiu ahin, hiche ho chu adin teng uleh akang ho kinga ji ahi. Hiche ho chu chung langa alen tou tengu leh akanga chu ganhing ho lhagao uma ahijeh chun akang ho chu akipat doh jiuvin ahi.
In their going, they go; and in their standing, they stand; and in their being lifted up from off the earth, lifted up are the wheels over-against them; for a living spirit [is] in the wheels.
22 Aluvum uva kijal doh chu vanthamjol tobang khat akidalin songvalset vah'in avahsetne.
And a likeness [is] over the heads of the living creatures of an expanse, as the colour of the fearful ice, stretched out over their heads from above.
23 Anoija chun ganhing ho lhavingu chu khat leh khat kijop cheh in akijal doh in chule alhaving ni chun atahsau khat cheh chu akhun ahi.
And under the expanse their wings [are] straight, one toward the other, to each are two covering on this side, and to each are two covering on that side — their bodies.
24 Alen teng ule alhaving ho gin husau chu keima jah in twitam tah in twipang hattah a atagin ahiloule Hatchungung ogin ahiloule, sepai hon tamtah husa gin bangin kajan ahi. Adin teng uleh alhaving u chu akhailha jiuve.
And I hear the noise of their wings, as the noise of many waters, as the noise of the Mighty One, in their going — the noise of tumult, as the noise of a camp, in their standing they let fall their wings.
25 Alhaving u akhailhah uva adin teng uleh vanthamjol tobang valset chunga kon chun o khat in thu ahin seijin ahi.
And there is a voice from above the expanse, that [is] above their head: in their standing they let fall their wings.
26 Achung vum'a chun songval duma kisem laltouna tobang khat akimun ahi. Chule hiche laltouna sangtah chunga kitousah pachu mihem lim leh melput tobang ahi.
And above the expanse that [is] over their head, as an appearance of a sapphire stone, [is] the likeness of a throne, and on the likeness of the throne a likeness, as the appearance of man upon it from above.
27 Akongbuh akipat akilah dan chu khichang vala meikou olla kimujap bangin akimun ahi. Chule akongbuh noilamse chu meikou tobang'in akimvel vah pempum bangin akimun ahi.
And I see as the colour of copper, as the appearance of fire within it round about, from the appearance of his loins and upward, and from the appearance of his loins and downward, I have seen as the appearance of fire, and brightness [is] to it round about.
28 Gojuh nikho a meilah a lhagui kimu bang khun avah pempum in ahi. Hiche hi Pakai loupina keiman kamu abangin, keiman hichehi kamu phat in kamai tollah kasulut in ahileh ogin khat in keima koma ogin kkhat anasei chu kajan ahi.
As the appearance of the bow that is in a cloud in a day of rain, so [is] the appearance of the brightness round about.
