Ezekiel 29
1 Kum hra, thapa yung hra, hnin hlaikahni navah, BAWIPA e lawk teh kai koe a pha teh,
In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the eleventh day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 tami capa Izip siangpahrang Faro taranlahoi kangdout sin nateh ahni hoi Izip ram pueng taranlahoi lawk pâpho haw.
“Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and you shall prophesy about him and about all of Egypt.
3 Pato nateh Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei e hah dei pouh haw, Izip siangpahrang Faro, tuipui lungui dawk ka tabawk e, takikathopoung e khorui, tuipui heh kaie doeh, kama hanelah ka sak e doeh katetkung nang hah na taran.
Speak, and you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh, king of Egypt, you great dragon, who rests in the midst of your rivers. And you say: ‘Mine is the river, and I have made myself.’
4 Hateiteh na pâkha dawk hradang hoi na vawi vaiteh, tuipui dawk e tanganaw hah nange na lakep dawk ka kâbet sak han, nange tuipui lungui hoi kai ni ka rasa han, tuipui dawk kaawm e tanganaw, nange na lakep dawk ka kâbet sak han.
But I will place a bridle in your jaws. And I will adhere the fish of your rivers to your scales. And I will draw you out of the midst of your rivers, and all your fish will adhere to your scales.
5 Nang hoi na tuipui dawk e tanga pueng hah, kahrawngum na ceitakhai vaiteh, kahrawngum vah na bo han, na racawng vaiteh bout na pâkhueng mahoeh toe, kahrawng e sarang hoi kalvan e tavanaw e rawca lah na poe han.
And I will cast you into the desert, with all the fish of your river. You will fall upon the surface of the earth; you will not be taken up, nor gathered together. I have given you to the beasts of the earth and to the birds of the air, to be devoured.
6 Isarel imthung hanelah lungpum sonron patetlah ao dawkvah, Izip vah kho ka sak e pueng ni, kai heh BAWIPA lah ka o tie a panue awh han.
And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the Lord. For you have been a staff made of reed to the house of Israel.
7 Kut hoi na man awh navah khoe pouh teh, ahnimae loungnaw pueng na rakhing pouh, nang dawk a kamngawi awh navah, nang na kâkhoe vaiteh ahnimae a keng na pataw sak.
When they took hold of you with the hand, you broke, and so you wounded all of their shoulders. And when they leaned on you, you shattered, and so you injured all of their lower backs.
8 Hatdawkvah, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Khenhaw! na lathueng vah tahloi ka pha sak vaiteh, tami hoi saringnaw be ka thei han.
Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will lead the sword over you, and I will destroy both man and beast from among you.
9 Izip ram teh tami kingdi lah ao han, hahoi kai teh BAWIPA lah ka o e hah a panue awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tuipui hai kaie lah ao teh, ka sak e doeh, telah ati.
And the land of Egypt will be a desert and a wilderness. And they shall know that I am the Lord. For you have said, ‘The river is mine, and I have made it.’
10 Hatdawkvah, kai ni na taran teh, nange tuipui Migdol hoi Syene, Ethiopia khori totouh, Izip ram teh tahloi hoi be ka thei vaiteh kingdi lah ka o sak han.
Therefore, behold, I am against you and against your rivers. And I will make the land of Egypt into a wilderness, destroyed by the sword from the tower of Syene all the way to the borders of Ethiopia.
11 A kum 40 totouh tami cet mahoeh. Saring hai cet mahoeh, apihai karingkung awm mahoeh.
The foot of man will not pass through it, and the foot of cattle will not walk in it. And it will be uninhabited for forty years.
12 Ka rawk e ramnaw dawk Izip ram teh kai ni ka raphoe han, tami kingdinae khonaw dawk a kum 40 touh Izip ramnaw dawk a rawk awh han. Izipnaw hah a ram tangkuem koe kai ni kâkayei sak han.
And I will set the land of Egypt in desolation, in the midst of desolate lands, and its cities in the midst of overturned cites. And they will be desolate for forty years. And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and I will disperse them among the lands.
13 Hateiteh, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, kum 40 a pha hnukkhu Izip heh a kâkayeinae koehoi tamihu koehoi ka kaw vaiteh, ka pâkhueng han.
For thus says the Lord God: After the end of forty years, I will gather the Egyptians from the peoples among whom they had been scattered.
14 Izipnaw hah santoungnae koehoi ka bankhai vaiteh, a onae ram dawk kârahnoum e uknaeram lah ao awh han.
And I will lead back the captivity of Egypt, and I will collect them in the land of Pathros, in the land of their nativity. And in that place, they will be a lowly kingdom.
15 Jentelnaw hah bout uk awh mahoeh, uknaeramnaw pueng dawk kathoungcalah ao han, alouke miphun hah bout uk sak hoeh nahanlah ka rahnoum sak han.
It will be the lowest among the other kingdoms, and it will no longer be exalted above the nations. And I will diminish them, lest they rule over the Gentiles.
16 Ahnimouh koelah kangvawi e pueng ni a payonnae a kâpanue awh dawkvah, Isarelnaw kâuepkhai poung e lah awm mahoeh, hahoi Bawipa Jehovah lah ka o tie a panue awh han.
And they will no longer be the confidence of the house of Israel, teaching iniquity, so that they may flee and follow them. And they shall know that I am the Lord God.”
17 Kum 27, thapa yung pasuek, hnin pasuek nah BAWIPA e lawk kai koe bout a pha teh,
And it happened that, in the twenty-seventh year, in the first month, on the first of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
18 tami capa Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar ni Taire taranlahoi thaw kalenpoung tawk hanelah, a ransahu hah a patoun. Tami pueng tampasam a nganae hoi aloungnaw be a kâpin toe, hatei, ama hoi a ransahu ni hai thaw a tawk awh e dawk Taire koe hoi a meknae banghai hmawt awh hoeh.
“Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, has caused his army to serve with great servility against Tyre. Every head was shaven, and every shoulder was stripped of hair. And wages have not been paid to him, nor to his army, for Tyre, for the service by which he served for me against it.
19 Hatdawkvah, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! Izip ram teh, Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar koevah ka poe han, a hnopai moikapap lah a lawp vaiteh, lawphno lah be ao vaiteh, hot teh ransahu e tawkphu lah ao han.
Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will station Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, in the land of Egypt. And he will take its multitude, and he will prey upon its profits, and he will plunder its spoils. And this shall be the wages for his army
20 Kaie thaw a tawk awh dawkvah, Izip ram heh a tawkphu lah ka poe telah Bawipa Jehovah ni ati.
and for the work by which he has served against it. I have given to him the land of Egypt, because he has labored for me, says the Lord God.
21 Hote hnin navah, Isarel imthung hanelah, ki ka cawn sak han. Ahnimouh koe na pahni ka ang sak han, hottelah hoi BAWIPA lah ka o tie hah a panue awh han telah ati.
In that day, a horn will spring forth for the house of Israel, and I will give to you an open mouth in their midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
