Ezekiel 34
1 BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 tami capa Isarel tukhoumnaw taranlahoi pâpho haw. Pâpho nateh, ahnimouh tukhoumnaw koe hettelah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei, Isarel tukhoumnaw, mahoima dueng kâkawknaw teh lungmathoe hanlah a o, tukhoumnaw ni tu hah a kawk awh mahoeh na maw.
Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD to the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks?
3 Nangmouh ni a thaw hah na ca awh teh, a muen hah na kâkhu awh. Kathâw kathâw e na thei awh, hatei, tunaw teh na kawk awh hoeh toe.
Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe yourselves with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: but ye feed not the flock.
4 A thayoun e tha na poe awh hoeh, kapatawnaw na dam sak awh hoeh, a khok kâkhoenaw na kawm pouh awh hoeh. Pâlei e naw bout na bankhai awh hoeh. Kahmat e hai na tawng awh hoeh. Thama thama lahoi lawkkahram lah na hram sin awh.
The diseased ye have not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them.
5 Kakhoumkung ao hoeh dawkvah, tunaw teh a kâkayei awh. A kâkayei toteh, sarangnaw e rawca lah ao awh.
And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became food to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered.
6 Kaie tunaw teh mon tangkuem koe a kâva awh, kaie tu hah talai pueng koe a kâkayei teh khopouk pouh kung hoi katawngkung awm hoeh, telah dei haw telah a ti.
My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek for them.
7 Hatdawkvah, tukhoumnaw BAWIPA e lawk thai awh haw.
Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
8 Kai ka hring e patetlah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei. Tukhoumnaw awm hoeh. Tukhoumnaw ni kaie tunaw hah a tawng awh hoeh dawkvah, kaie tunaw kahrawng e sarangnaw e rawca lah ao awh teh, kaie tunaw hah sarang ni kei hanelah ao awh. Tukhoumnaw ni amahoima a kâkawk awh teh, kaie tuhu hah kawkhik awh hoeh.
As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became food to every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock;
9 Hatdawkvah, nangmouh tukhoumnaw BAWIPA e lawk thai awh haw.
Therefore, O ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
10 Hettelah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei. Khenhaw! tukhoumnaw ka taran, a kut thung e tunaw hah ka lawp vaiteh kaie tukhoumnae koehoi kâhat sak han. Tukhoumnaw teh amahoima kâkawk awh mahoeh toe, bangkongtetpawiteh, tuhunaw hah a râwca lah ao hoeh nahanelah a pahni dawk hoi ka tunaw hah ka la pouh han toe, telah a ti.
Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be food for them.
11 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Khenhaw! kai kama roeroe ni ka tunaw hah ka tawng vaiteh ka hmu han.
For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search for my sheep, and seek them out.
12 Tukhoumkung ni tuhu kâkayei e tunaw a tawng e patetlah ka tunaw hah ka tawng han, tâmai hoi hmonae hmuen koe pueng hai ka tawng han.
As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
13 Ram tangkuem koehoi ka la vaiteh ka pâkhueng han, amamae ram roeroe dawk ka ceikhai han. Isarel ram thung hoi tanghling, khosaknae hmuen pueng koevah ka kawk han.
And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in all the inhabited places of the country.
14 Ramhringnae koe ka pâ sak vaiteh, a im hah Isarel mon rasangnae koe ao han, kahawi e takha dawkvah a tabo awh vaiteh, Isarel mon dawk hrâmnaw a onae koe a pâ awh han.
I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good fold, and in a rich pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel.
15 Kai kama roeroe ni ka tunaw hah ka kawkhik han, karoumcalah ka tabo sak han, telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a ti.
I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord GOD.
16 Kahmat e ka tawng vaiteh, pâlei e bout ka bankhai han. A khok kâkhoe hah ka kawm pouh vaiteh, a patawnae hah kahawi sak han. Hateiteh, kathâw e hoi a thasai e hah ka thei vaiteh, lawkcengnae koe ka pha sak han, telah BAWIPA ni a ti.
I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment.
17 Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei e teh, Oe! ka tunaw, saring alouklouknaw thoseh, tutannaw hoi hmaetannaw thoseh, kai ni ka kapek han.
And as for you, O my flock, thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I judge between cattle and cattle, between the rams and the male goats.
18 Nangmouh teh kahawie hram kanaw e hmuen koe na ca awh e dueng laipalah, kacawie tui hah na khok hoi na pânut sak hane teh, kathoengcae hno doeh, telah na pouk awh na maw.
Seemeth it a small thing to you to have eaten up the good pasture, but ye must tread down with your feet the rest of your pastures? and to have drunk of the deep waters, but ye must foul the rest with your feet?
19 Nangmouh ni na coungroe e phokungnaw thoseh, na khok hoi na pânut sak e tui hai thoseh, kaie tunaw ni a canei awh han na maw.
And as for my flock, they eat that which ye have trodden with your feet; and they drink that which ye have fouled with your feet.
20 Hatdawkvah, Bawipa Jehovah ni ahnimouh koe hettelah a dei, kathâw e saringnaw hoi kamsoe e saringnaw hah kai ni lawkceng han.
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD to them; Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat cattle and between the lean cattle.
21 Nangmouh ni a thakayoune tunaw hah hmuen tangkuem koe kâkayei sak hanelah na loung hoi na en awh teh, na ki hoi na deng awh.
Because ye have thrust with side and with shoulder, and pushed all the diseased with your horns, till ye have scattered them abroad;
22 Hatdawkvah, ka tunaw ka rungngang vaiteh, ahnimouh teh sarang ni a kei rumram e lah awm mahoeh toe. Tunaw e a rahak vah lawk ka ceng han.
Therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between cattle and cattle.
23 Tukhoumkung buet touh ka rawi pouh vaiteh, ahni ni a kawk han. Kaie ka san Devit ni ahnimouh a kawk vaiteh, ama teh kakhoumkung lah ao vaiteh a kawkhik han.
And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd.
24 Kai BAWIPA teh ahnimae Cathut lah ka o vaiteh, ka thaw katawkkung Devit teh ahnimae lathueng kahrawikung lah ao han, kai BAWIPA roeroe ni yo ka dei toe.
And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the LORD have spoken it.
25 Hahoi, ahnimouh hoi roumnae lawkkamnae hah ka sak vaiteh, sarang kathout hah ram thung hoi ka baw sak han, kahrawngum vah karoumcalah kho a sak vaiteh, ratu thungvah karoumcalah a i awh han.
And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.
26 Ahnimouh thoseh kaie mon petkâkalup lah kaawm e hai thoseh, yawhawi ka poe vaiteh, amae atueng dawk kho ka rak sak vaiteh, yawhawinae khotui a rak han.
And I will make them and the places around my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in its season; there shall be showers of blessing.
27 Ram thung e thingnaw ni a pawra han, talai ni hai apaw a tâco sak han, khocanaw ni karoumcalah ao awh han, ahnimouh ni a phu awh e kahnam rui ka a pouh vaiteh, thama thama lah ka rek e ahnimae kut dawk hoi ka tâco sak toteh, kai teh BAWIPA lah ka o tie a panue awh han.
And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I am the LORD, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, and delivered them out of the hand of those that subjected them to service.
28 Jentelnaw ni bout lawm awh mahoeh toe, ram dawk e sarang ni hai kei awh mahoeh toe. Apihai takinae poe mahoeh toe, ahnimouh teh karoumcalah ao awh han toe.
And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make them afraid.
29 A min kamthang e takha hai ahnimouh hanelah kai ni ka sak pouh han, a ram dawk takangnae, kahai lah onae bout awm mahoeh toe. Jentelnaw e dudamnae khang awh mahoeh toe.
And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame of the heathen any more.
30 Ahnimae Bawipa Jehovah teh ahnimouh hoi rei o e thoseh, Isarel imthungnaw hai ka tami lah ao e hai thoseh, a panue awh han telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei.
Thus shall they know that I the LORD their God am with them, and that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, saith the Lord GOD.
31 Nangmouh ka tuhu hoi saring pânae hmuen dawk e ka tuhu hah ka tami na o awh. Kai hai nangmae Cathut ka ka o, telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei telah a ti.
And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, saith the Lord GOD.
