Ezekiel 28
1 BAWIPA e lawk kai koe bout a pha.
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 Tami capa Taire bawi koevah dei pouh haw, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, na lungthin na kâpouk teh, Cathut lah ka o. Talî lungui vah cathut a tahungnae dawk ka tahung telah na ti, hateiteh, tami rumram lah doeh na o, cathut lungthin lah na kâpouk eiteh, cathut nahoeh.
“Son of man, say to the leader of Tyre: Thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted, and you have said, ‘I am God, and I sit in the chair of God, in the heart of the sea,’ though you are a man, and not God, and because you have presented your heart as if it were the heart of God:
3 Thaihaw Daniel hlak na lunganghnawn, nang koe lawk hro thai kawi lah awm hoeh.
Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is concealed from you.
4 Na lungangnae hoi kho na poukthainae ni na bawi sak teh, na râw bawm dawkvah sui hoi ngun na pâkuem.
By your wisdom and prudence, you have made yourself strong, and you have acquired gold and silver for your storehouses.
5 Ka lentoe poung e na lungangnae hoi na yorannae lahoi, na mek poung teh na tawnta dawkvah na lungthin na kâoup.
By the multitude of your wisdom, and by your business dealings, you have multiplied strength for yourself. And your heart has been exalted by your strength.
6 Hatdawkvah, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, cathut lungthin ka sin e lah na kâpouk dawkvah,
Therefore, thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted as if it were the heart of God,
7 Khenhaw! takikatho poung e alouke miphunnaw hah nang koe ka patoun han, ahnimouh ni nange lungangnae ka lentoe e hah tahloi hoi a bouk vaiteh, na bawilennae a raphoe han.
for this reason, behold, I will lead over you foreigners, the most robust among the Gentiles. And they will bare their swords over the beauty of your wisdom, and they will defile your beauty.
8 Ka dungpoung e tangkom thung na pabo awh vaiteh, talî lungui e ro patetlah na due han.
They will destroy you and pull you down. And you will die the death of those slain in the heart of the sea.
9 Na hringnae ka thet e hmaitung vah, cathut lah ka o na ti han rah na ou, a hmâ na ka paca e kut dawk teh cathut lah na awm hoeh, tami rumram lah doeh na o.
So then, will you speak, in the presence of those who are destroying you, before the hand of those who are killing you, saying, ‘I am God,’ though you are a man, and not God?
10 Imyinnaw e kut dawk vuensom ka a hoeh e, due e patetlah na due han, bangkongtetpawiteh, lawk yo ka dei toe telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei.
You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hand of foreigners. For I have spoken, says the Lord God.”
11 Hothloilah, BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: “Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre,
12 tami capa Taire siangpahrang khuinae kalungla hah phueng nateh, ahni koevah hettelah Bawipa Jehovah ni a ti, ahawinae ka kuep, lungangnae hoi ka kawi e, kamcupoung e meilam hoi ka kuep,
and you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord God: You were the seal of similitudes, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
13 Eden hmuen takha dawk na o toe, na i dawk talung aphu kaawm e aphunphun hoi na kamthoup. Sardis, topaz, diamon, beril, onyx, jasper, saphir, sarakdin, karbokul, phunphun hoi, sui hoi sak e cecak, vovit, naw haiyah na khe tahma vah nang hane sut rakueng e lah ao toe.
You were with the delights of the Paradise of God. Every precious stone was your covering: sardius, topaz, and jasper, chrysolite, and onyx, and beryl, sapphire, and garnet, and emerald. The work of your beauty was of gold, and your fissures were ready in the day when you were formed.
14 Nang teh na karingkung cherubim hoi satui awi e lah na o. Cathut e mon kathoung dawkvah na o sak. hmaito hoi kâvan e talung phukaawm koe na kâhlai.
You were a cherub, stretched out and protecting, and I stationed you on the holy mountain of God. You have walked in the midst of stones containing fire.
15 Na khe hnin hoi na yonnae a kamnue hnin totouh, na sak e pueng dawk na kuep e lah na o,
You were perfect in your ways, from the day of your formation, until iniquity was found in you.
16 Hatei na hno yorannae a pungdaw teh, hnokathout hoi a kawi, na yorannae dawk na rawp toe, hatdawkvah, tamikathout patetlah nang hah Cathut e mon dawk hoi kai ni na hrek toe, karingkung cherubim hmai ka tawk e talungnaw thung hoi kai ni na raphoe toe.
By the multitude of your business dealings, your interior was filled with iniquity, and you sinned. And I cast you away from the mountain of God, and I perished you, O protecting cherub, from the midst of the stones containing fire.
17 Nang teh na takthai meihawinae kecu dawk, kâoupnae lungthin na tawn teh, na bawilennae ni, nange lungangnae teh a raphoe toe. Kai ni nang teh talai totouh na pabo han. Siangpahrangnaw ni nang teh na khet awh teh, a lunghawisak nahanelah ahnimae hmaitung kai ni na hruek han.
And your heart was exalted by your beauty; you have destroyed your own wisdom by your beauty. I have cast you to the ground. I have presented you before the face of kings, so that they may examine you.
18 Nange yonnae teh apappoung dawkvah, hno na yorannae a lanhoehnae ni, na hmuen kathoung hah a kamhnawng sak. Hatdawkvah, na thung hoi hmai a tâco sak. Koung a kak awh teh, na kahmawtnaw ni a mithmu vah vaiphu lah na coung sak.
You have defiled your sanctuaries, by the multitude of your iniquities and by the iniquity of your business dealings. Therefore, I will produce a fire from your midst, which will consume you, and I will make you into ashes upon the earth, in the sight of all who are watching you.
19 Tamihu thung hoi nang ka panuek e pueng ni parap na khet awh teh, kângairu lahoi na kangdue sin awh. Bout kamnuek mahoeh toe telah ati awh.
All who gaze upon you among the Gentiles will be stupefied over you. You were made out of nothing, and you shall not be, forever.”
20 BAWIPA e lawk hah kai koe a pha teh,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
21 Tami capa Sidon hah kangdout sin nateh, amae kong hah dei pouh.
“Son of man, set your face against Sidon, and you shall prophesy about it.
22 Hettelah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei, Oe! Sidon, nang teh na taran, nang dawkvah ka bawilennae ka kamnue sak vaiteh, BAWIPA lah ka onae hah a panue awh han, ahni dawk lawk ka ceng toteh, kathounge hah ka hmu sak han.
And you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Sidon, and I will be glorified in your midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have executed judgments in her, and when I will have been sanctified in her.
23 Lamthungnaw dawk thipaling hoi lacik ka pha sak han, hmuen tangkuem tahloi ni hmâ a paca e naw hah, a rawp awh han, hat toteh BAWIPA lah ka o tie a panue awh han.
And I will send a pestilence upon her, and there will be blood in her streets. And they will fall, slain by the sword, on every side in her midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
24 Hottelah, Isarelnaw hanelah, tami ka ruk e pâkhingkung awm mahoeh toe. Ahnimae tengpam e kadudamnaw thung hoi runae ka poe hane pâkhing awm mahoeh toe. Hahoi kai teh Bawipa Jehovah doeh tie a panue awh han.
And the house of Israel will no longer be a stumbling block of bitterness, nor a thorn bringing pain everywhere around them, to those who turn against them. And they shall know that I am the Lord God.”
25 Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Isarel imthung hah a kâkayeinae ram thung hoi, ka pâkhueng teh ahnimae hmalah miphunnaw e mithmu vah, ka thoungnae hah na hmu sak toteh, Jakop koe ka poe e amamae ram roeroe dawk kho a sak awh han toe.
Thus says the Lord God: “When I will have gathered together the house of Israel, from the peoples among whom they have been dispersed, I shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the Gentiles. And they shall live in their own land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.
26 Hottelah karoumcalah ao awh han, im a sak awh han. Misur takha a sak awh vaiteh, karoumcalah ao awh han, a tengpam e ahnimouh kadudamnaw e a lathueng lawk ka ceng torei teh, kai teh Bawipa Jehovah lah ka o tie a panue awh han telah ati.
And they shall live within it securely. And they shall build houses and plant vineyards. And they shall live in confidence, when I will have executed judgments upon all those who turn against them on every side. And they shall know that I am the Lord their God.”
