Ezekiel 3
1 Hothloilah, tami capa, na hmu e hah cat haw. Cakalawng hah cat nateh, Isarel imthung koe lawk dei loe, telah ati.
He said to me, “Son of man, eat what you find. Eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”
2 Hottelah ka pahni ka ang teh, cakalawng hah ka ca.
So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat the scroll.
3 Ahni ni, tami capa na von dawk paen nateh, hete cakalawng na poe e heh na von dawk kawi naseh, telah ati. Hottelah ka ca teh, ka kâko dawk khoitui patetlah a radip.
He said to me, “Son of man, eat this scroll that I give you and fill your belly and your bowels with it.” Then I ate it. It was as sweet as honey in my mouth.
4 Ahni ni kai koevah, tami capa Isarel imthung koe cet nateh, ahnimouh koe kaie ka lawk hah dei haw.
He said to me, “Son of man, go to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them.
5 Bangkongtetpawiteh, lawk phunlouk hoi thai ka ru e lawk koevah, patoun e nahoeh, Isarel miphunnaw koe na patoun e doeh.
For you are not sent to a people of a strange speech and of a hard language, but to the house of Israel—
6 Ka bawilen e miphun, a lawk ka hram niteh, a lawk hoi lawk thai panuek hoeh e koe na patoun hoeh, ahnimouh koe na patoun pawiteh, na lawk a ngai awh han.
not to many peoples of a strange speech and of a hard language, whose words you can’t understand. Surely, if I sent you to them, they would listen to you.
7 Hatei Isarel imthung ni teh, nange na lawk ngai awh mahoeh. Kaie ka lawk hai ngai awh mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarel imthung pueng teh, tami lung ka patak e hoi dei han ka ru poung e lah ao.
But the house of Israel will not listen to you, for they will not listen to me; for all the house of Israel are obstinate and hard-hearted.
8 Khenhaw! ahnimae minhmai katarankung lah nangmae minhmai, ahnimae tanpa katarankung lah nangmae tanpa hah ka te sak toe.
Behold, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your forehead hard against their foreheads.
9 Kate katang e talung hmaikhom patet lae kate e tampa hah na tawn sak teh, Taket hanh loe, taran ka thaw e imthung lah kaawm nakunghai a mithmainaw ni takinae na poe hanh naseh.
I have made your forehead as a diamond, harder than flint. Don’t be afraid of them, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.”
10 Hothloilah kai koevah, tami capa nang koe ka dei hane pueng na hnâpakeng nateh, na lungthin dawk paen haw.
Moreover he said to me, “Son of man, receive in your heart and hear with your ears all my words that I speak to you.
11 cet nateh, na hmaunawngha san lah kaawm e koevah cet haw. A tarawi hai a tarawi hoeh hai hettelah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei telah pâpho nateh dei telah ati.
Go to them of the captivity, to the children of your people, and speak to them, and tell them, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says,’ whether they will hear, or whether they will refuse.”
12 Muitha ni kai hah na tawm teh, ka hnuklah kacaipounge khoparit lawk hah ka thai. Ama hmuen koehoi BAWIPA bawilennae teh pholen lah awm seh telah ati.
Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the voice of a great rushing, saying, “Blessed be the LORD’s glory from his place.”
13 Moithangnaw a rathei buet touh kâhmo e pawlawk hoi a tengpam e leng pawlawk hoi kacaipounge khoparit law hah ka thai.
I heard 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 Hottelah Muitha ni na tawm teh, yout na la, kâan e, kakhat e, lungpuennae hoi na pâlei. Hatei Thakasai e BAWIPA kut hah ka lathueng vah ao.
So the Spirit lifted me up, and took me away; and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; and the LORD’s hand was strong on me.
15 Hottelah Telabib e san lah kaawm e Kebar palang dawk kho ka sak e naw koevah ka pha. A tahungnae koe ka tahung. Kângairu lahoi hawvah, hnin sari touh ka tahung.
Then I came to them of the captivity at Tel Aviv who lived by the river Chebar, and to where they lived; and I sat there overwhelmed among them seven days.
16 Hnin sari touh abaw hnukkhu vah hettelah doeh. BAWIPA e a lawk kai koe a pha.
At the end of seven days, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
17 Tami capa Isarel imthung kakhenkung lah na pouk e doeh. Hottelah ka lawk na thai vaiteh, kaie yueng lah kâhruetcuetnae na poe han.
“Son of man, I have made you a watchman to the house of Israel. Therefore hear the word from my mouth, and warn them from me.
18 Tamikathout, na due roeroe han ka ti pouh teh, hote tamikathout e a hringnae rungngang hanelah, a yonnae lamthung a kamlang takhai hanelah kâhruetcuetnae na poe hoeh lah, na dei pouh hoeh pawiteh, hote tamikathout teh a payonnae dawk dout pawiteh, a thi phu teh nang koe na suk roeroe han.
When I tell the wicked, ‘You will surely die;’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life, that wicked man will die in his iniquity; but I will require his blood at your hand.
19 Hatei, tamikathout hah kâhruetcuetnae na poe teh, a thoenae cettakhai laipalah kahawihoehe lamthung dawk hoi kamlang hoehpawiteh, a payonnae dawk a due han, nang teh na hringnae na hlout han.
Yet if you warn the wicked, and he doesn’t turn from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he will die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul.”
20 Tamikalan ni a lannae a kamlang takhai teh, yonnae sak pawiteh, a hmalah tâlaw nahan ka tat pouh pawiteh, a due han. Kâhruetcuetnae na poe hoeh dawkvah yon dawk a due han. Lannae a sak tangcoung e hah panue pouh e lah awm mahoeh toe, a thi phu nang koe ka hei han.
“Again, when a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he will die. Because you have not given him warning, he will die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he has done will not be remembered; but I will require his blood at your hand.
21 Hateiteh, tamikalan a yon hoeh nahan kâhruetcuetnae na poe teh, payon hoehpawiteh, kâhruetcuetnae na poe e hah a lawkpui lah a pouk dawkvah, a hring han. Nang hai na hlout toe telah ati.
Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous not sin, and he does not sin, he will surely live, because he took warning; and you have delivered your soul.”
22 Hawvah BAWIPA e kut ka lathueng ao teh, kai koevah thaw nateh ayawn dawk cet loe. Hawvah kai ni na pato han telah ati. Hattoteh ka thaw teh ayawn koe ka cei.
The LORD’s hand was there on me; and he said to me, “Arise, go out into the plain, and I will talk with you there.”
23 Khenhaw! hawvah, BAWIPA bawilennae Kebar palang ka hmu e bawilennae patetlah a kangdue teh, kai teh pakhup lah rep ka tabo.
Then I arose, and went out into the plain, and behold, the LORD’s glory stood there, like the glory which I saw by the river Chebar. Then I fell on my face.
24 Hottelah hoi Muitha teh, kai dawk a kâen. Ka khok hoi na kangdue sak teh, na pato, cet nateh na im kangungh.
Then the Spirit entered into me and set me on my feet. He spoke with me, and said to me, “Go, shut yourself inside your house.
25 Nang tami capa tangron hoi na pakhi awh vaiteh na katek awh han.
But you, son of man, behold, they will put ropes on you, and will bind you with them, and you will not go out among them.
26 Na lai hah na adangka dawk kâbet sak vaiteh, lawk na tho mahoeh toe. Ahnimouh na yue mahoeh toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tarankathaw e imthung doeh.
I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth so that you will be mute and will not be able to correct them, for they are a rebellious house.
27 Hateiteh, nang koe lawk ka dei navah, na pahni na ang sak vaiteh, ahnimouh koe, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Ka tarawi e ni tarawi naseh, ka tarawi ngaihoeh e ni tarawi hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tarankathaw e imthung doeh telah na dei han
But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall tell them, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says.’ He who hears, let him hear; and he who refuses, let him refuse; for they are a rebellious house.”
