Ezekiel 22
1 Hothloilah, BAWIPA e lawk hah kai koe a pha teh,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 nang tami capa, thi ka Palawng e khopui hah lawk na ceng hah na maw, Bokheiyah panuet a thonae naw hah panuek sak.
And thou, son of man, wilt thou judge the bloody city? yea, declare thou to her all her iniquities.
3 Ahnimouh koe Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Amae tueng roeroe navah thipalawngnae khopui atueng a pha nahanelah, amahoima kâkhinsak hanelah meikaphawk hah a sak.
And thou shalt say, Thus saith the Lord God: O city that sheds blood in the midst of her, so that her time should come, and that forms devices against herself, to defile herself;
4 Tami hringnae na thei e lahoi yonpen e lah na o teh meikaphawk na sak e dawkvah na kâkhinsak. Namae na hnin na hnai sak teh, na kum apoutnae meimei a pha toe. Hatdawkvah, miphunnaw na pathoenae hoi ram pueng ni dudam e lah na o sak han.
in their blood which thou hast shed, thou hast transgressed; and in thy devices which thou hast formed, thou hast polluted thyself; and thou hast brought nigh thy days, and hast brought on the time of thy years: therefore have I made thee a reproach to the Gentiles, and a mockery to all the countries,
5 Na tengpam e taminaw hoi lamhla e taminaw ni pathoenae hoi pacekpahleknae hoi ka kawi e patetlah na panuikhai han.
to those near thee, and to those far distant from thee; and they shall mock thee, [thou that art] notoriously unclean, and abundant in iniquities.
6 Khenhaw! Isarel ukkungnaw ni nangmouh thi Palawng hanelah a thaonae rip a hno awh.
Behold, the princes of the house of Israel have conspired in thee each one with his kindred, that they might shed blood.
7 Nangmouh thung manu na pa hah a dudam awh teh, nangmae rahak alouke miphun khok hoi a coungroe awh teh, nangmouh dawk e nara hoi lahmai hah banglahai noutna awh hoeh.
In thee they have reviled father and mother; and in thee they have behaved unjustly toward the stranger: they have oppressed the orphan and widow.
8 Nang ni kaie thoungnae naw banglahai noutna hoeh e lah na sak toe. Kaie sabbath hninnaw na tapoe toe.
And they have set at nought my holy things, and in thee they have profaned my sabbaths.
9 Namamouh thung e tami thipalawng han na ngai teh, thuengnae moi, tami tangawn ni a ca awh, hno kathout ka sak e ao awh.
[There are] robbers in thee, to shed blood in thee; and in thee they have eaten upon the mountains: they have wrought ungodliness in the midst of thee.
10 Nangmouh thung dawk a na pa e yu hah caicinae na ramuk awh hoeh. Kampheng lahun e napui hai a yonkhai awh toe.
In thee they have uncovered the father's shame; and in thee they have humbled her that was set apart for uncleanness.
11 Nangmouh thung dawk tami tangawn ni amae imri yu koe panuettho e hno a sak awh toe, a langa a kamhnawngkhai awh toe, tangawn ni a tawncanu, a na pa e canu hah a pacekpahlek awh.
They have dealt unlawfully each one with his neighbor's wife; and each one in ungodliness has defiled his daughter-in-law: and in thee they have humbled each one his sister, the daughter of his father.
12 Nangmouh thung dawk tami theinae han lah tadawnghno hai na la awh, apung na ca teh, tangka na cawi awh, imri e hnopai na lawp awh.
In thee they have received gifts to shed blood; they have received in thee interest and usurious increase; and by oppression thou hast brought thy wickedness to the full, and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord.
13 Hatdawkvah, nama ni na pâkhueng e hnopai namamouh thung dawk thi na Palawng e kecu dawk kai ni kut ka tambei sin han.
And if I shall smite my hand at [thine iniquities] which thou hast accomplished, which thou hast wrought, and at thy blood that has been shed in the midst of thee,
14 Kai ni nang lawk na ceng toteh, na lungthin na cak sak thai han na ou. Na kut hai a tha ao thai han na ou. Kai BAWIPA ni ka dei tangcoung e patetlah ka sak han.
shall thy heart endure? shall thine hands be strong in the days which I bring upon thee? I the Lord have spoken, and will do [it].
15 Nang hai ram miphun tangkuem koevah, na kâkayei sak han. Hateiteh, na khinnae hah be kahma sak han.
And I will scatter thee among the nations, and disperse thee in the countries, and thy uncleanness shall be removed out of thee.
16 Miphunnaw e hmaitung vah mahoima na kâkhinsak. BAWIPA lah ka o tie na panue han ati tet pouh telah ati.
And I will give heritages in thee in the sight of the nations, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
17 BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
18 tami capa Isarel imthung hah kai hanelah sumei lah doeh ao. Ahnimanaw teh sôlêi e, tahmanghmai dawk phum e, rahum paling, rahum pangaw, sum hoi ngunei patetlah doeh ao awh.
Son of man, behold, the house of Israel are all become to me [as it were] mixed with brass, and iron, and tin, and lead; they are mixed up in the midst of the silver.
19 Hatdawkvah Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Ei rumram lah na o awh dawkvah, khenhaw! Jerusalem kho lungui na pâkhueng awh.
Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God; Because ye have become one mixture, therefore I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.
20 Ngun, rahum paling, rahum pangaw, sum, konlawk naw hmai patawi sin teh a tui lah kamyawt hanelah, thawngnae dawk khuk papawp e patetlah kai teh ka lung puenghoi a khuek teh, nangmouh teh kho lungui vah na pâkhueng awh vaiteh, atui lah na kamyawt sak han.
As silver, and brass, and iron, and tin, and lead, are gathered into the midst of the furnace, to blow fire into it, that they may be melted: so will I take [you] in my wrath, and I will gather and melt you.
21 Atangcalah na pâkhueng awh vaiteh, kaie ka lungkhueknae hmai, ka patawi vaiteh, nangmouh teh kho thung atui lah na kamyawt awh han.
And I will blow upon you in the fire of my wrath, and ye shall be melted in the midst thereof.
22 Ngun thawngnae dawkvah atui lah kamyawt e patetlah nangmanaw teh kho thung vah atui lah na kamyawt awh vaiteh, kai BAWIPA ni nangmae lathueng vah, kaie ka lungkhueknae ka awi toe tie hah na panue awh han telah ati.
As silver is melted in the midst of a furnace, so shall ye be melted in the midst thereof; and ye shall know that I the Lord have poured out my wrath upon you.
23 BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
24 tami capa ahni koe dei pouh nang teh, lungkhueknae ahni dawk kho ka rak hoeh e, khotui hah ka dawp hoeh e ram lah ao.
Son of man, say to her, Thou art the land that is not rained upon, neither has rain come upon thee in the day of wrath;
25 Hote ram dawkvah, profetnaw teh a kâyouk awh toe. Ka huk ni teh moi ka kei e sendek patetlah taminaw a ca awh. Hno kuemnae hoi aphu kaawm e hnopainaw a lawp awh toe. Khothung vah lahmainaw moikapap lah ao sak awh.
whose princes in the midst of her are as roaring lions seizing prey, devouring souls by oppression, and taking bribes; and thy widows are multiplied in the midst of thee.
26 Ahnimae vaihmanaw ni hai kaie kâlawk a ek awh teh, kaie a thoungnae hmuen hai a khinsak awh. Kathounge hoi kathounghoehe hoi kapek awh hoeh. Kathounge hoi kathounghoehe mak kâkalawtsak awh, kaie sabbath hnin hai a kâpahnim sak awh.
Her priests also have set at nought my law, and profaned my holy things: they have not distinguished between the holy and profane, nor have they distinguished between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I was profaned in the midst of them.
27 Kahrawikungnaw ni hai moi ka kei e Asuinaw patetlah ram thung ao awh teh, kamsoumhoehe apung a tawng awh teh, tami hringnae a thei awh.
Her princes in the midst of her are as wolves ravening to shed blood, that they may get dishonest gain.
28 Ahnimae profetnaw ni thungpangaw a hluk awh teh, kaphawk e kamnuenae hah a hmu awh. Laithoe lahoi cungpam a rayu pouh awh. BAWIPA ni banghai a dei hoeh nakunghai, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, telah ouk ati awh.
And her prophets that daub them shall fall, that see vanities, that prophesy falsehoods, saying, Thus saith the Lord, when the Lord has not spoken.
29 Khocanaw hai rektapnae tahloi hoi a tuk awh, ka roedengnaw hah pacekpahleknae Jentelnaw hai kahawihoehe lahoi a pacekpahlek awh.
That sorely oppress the people of the land with injustice, and commit robbery; oppressing the poor and needy, and not dealing justly with the stranger.
30 Ram hah ka raphoe hoeh nahan, rapan ka sak hane hoi ram e a yueng lah kai han e ka kangdout hanelah ahnimouh koe ka tawng, hatei ka hmawt hoeh.
And I sought from among them a man behaving uprightly, and standing before me perfectly in the time of wrath, so that I should not utterly destroy her: but I found [him] not.
31 Hatdawkvah, ka lungkhueknae teh ahnimae lathueng ka rabawk teh, ka lungkhueknae hmai hoi ka sawi. A hringnae hoi kamcu lah ahnimae lathueng ka pha sak e doeh telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei, tet pouh telah ati.
So I have poured out my wrath upon her in the fury of mine anger, to accomplish [it]. I have recompensed their ways on their own heads, saith the Lord God.
