< Ezekiel 5 >

1 Nang tami capa, pataca hruepatue e hah tahloi yueng lah lat haw, na lû hoi pâkhamuen hah ngaw haw. Yawcu dawk khing nateh, alouklouk lah kapek haw.
And thou, son of man, take thee a sword sharper than a barber's razor; thou shalt procure it for thyself, and shalt bring it upon thine head, and upon thy beard: and thou shalt take a pair of scales, and shalt separate the hair.
2 Khopui kalupnae tueng a kuep navah, sam hoi pâkhamuen, pung thum touh dawk pung touh hah khopui thung hmaisawi nateh, pung touh e hah tahloi hoi tâtueng haw, pung touh e hah kahlî thonae koe paleng sak. Kai ni tahloi hoi ka pâlei han.
A fourth part thou shalt burn in the fire in the midst of the city, at the fulfillment of the days of the siege: and thou shalt take a fourth part, and burn it up in the midst of it: and a fourth part thou shalt cut with a sword round about it: and a fourth part thou shalt scatter to the wind; and I will draw out a sword after them.
3 Youn touh na la vaiteh, na angki pawi dawk na taoung han.
And thou shalt take thence a few in number, and shalt wrap them in the fold of thy garment.
4 Hote youn touh bout na lat nateh hmai sawi haw. Haw hoi teh Isarel imthung hoi hmai a tâco han.
And thou shalt take of these again, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them up with fire: from thence shall come forth fire; and thou shalt say to the whole house of Israel,
5 Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Hetheh Jerusalem kho doeh, miphunnaw umsali ka hrek teh a tengpam vah ramnaw hah ao.
Thus saith the Lord; This is Jerusalem: I have set her and the countries round about her in the midst of the nations.
6 Miphunnaw hlak hawihoehnae a sak teh, ka lawkcengnae a taran teh, a tengpam e ramnaw hlak ka phunglam hah hoe a taran. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka lawkcengnae hah a oun awh teh, ka phunglam tarawi awh hoeh.
And thou shalt declare mine ordinances to the lawless one from out of the nations; and my statutes [to the sinful one] of the countries round about her: because they have rejected mine ordinances, and have not walked in my statutes.
7 Hatdawkvah, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, Na tengpam e miphunnaw hlak lawkeknae hah hoe na pung sak teh ka phunglam tarawi awh laipalah ka lawkcengnae hah na pâkuem awh hoeh.
Therefore thus saith the Lord, Because your occasion [for sin has been taken] from the nations round about you, and ye have not walked in my statutes, nor kept mine ordinances, nay, ye have not even done according to the ordinances of the nations round about you; therefore thus saith the Lord;
8 Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! kai kama roeroe ni na taran awh vaiteh, miphunnaw e mithmu roeroe vah ka lawkcengnae ka kuep sak han.
Behold, I am against thee, and I will execute judgment in the midst of thee in the sight of the nations.
9 Panuet na thonae kecu dawk, ka sak boihoeh e hoi sak lah hai bout ka sak hoeh hane hah nangmouh koe ka sak han.
And I will do in thee things which I have not done, and the like of which I will not do again, for all thine abominations.
10 Hatdawkvah, nangmouh koe lawkcengnae ka kuep sak vaiteh, a na pa ni a canaw a ca awh han, a ca ni hai a napanaw a ca awh han. Nang koe ka cawi rae naw hah koung ka kâkahei sak han.
Therefore the fathers shall eat [their] children in the midst of thee, and children shall eat [their] fathers; and I will execute judgments in thee, and I will scatter all that are left of thee to every wind.
11 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei e hateh, kai ka hring e patetlah na kamhnawngnae hoi panuetthonae lahoi ka hmuen kathoung hah na kamhnawng sak dawkvah, kai ni nang pasainae ka tawn mahoeh. Koung na pahma han, na pahren mahoeh.
Therefore, [as] I live, saith the Lord; surely, because thou hast defiled my holy things with all thine abominations, I also will reject thee; mine eye shall not spare, and I will have no mercy.
12 Nangmouh thung pung thum touh dawk pung touh teh lacik patawnae hoi thoseh, takang hoi thoseh a due awh han. Pung touh hah tahloi hoi na teng vah a due awh han. Pung touh hah ka kâheisak vaiteh tahloi hoi ka pâlei han.
A fourth part of thee shall be cut off by pestilence, and a fourth part of thee shall be consumed in the midst of thee with famine: and [as for another] fourth part of thee, I will scatter them to every wind; and a fourth part of thee shall fall by sword round about thee, and I will draw out a sword after them.
13 Hettelah ka lungkhueknae kamnue sak e lah ao han. A lathueng vah, ka lungkhueknae kamnue sak e lah ao navah, BAWIPA ni ngaikhainae hoi ka dei toe tie a panue awh han.
And my wrath and mine anger shall be accomplished upon them: and thou shalt know that I the Lord have spoken in my jealousy, when I have accomplished mine anger upon them.
14 Hothloilah, ahni teng ka cet pueng e a hmalah nang heh tami kingdinae, na teng petkâkalup lah kaawm e miphunnaw ni dudam e lah na o han.
And I will make thee desolate, and thy daughters round about thee, in the sight of every one that passes through.
15 Lungkhueknae a len poung e lahoi nang dawk ka pataw poung e kâhruetcuetnae na poe toteh, na tengpam kaawm e miphun pueng dawk dudam yonpen kawi lah pouk hanelah, kângairu hno lah na o han.
And thou shalt be mourned over and miserable among the nations round about thee, when I have executed judgments in thee in the vengeance of my wrath. I the Lord have spoken.
16 Kai BAWIPA ni yo ka dei toe. A lathueng vah takang, kahawihoehe kahma katanae pala mathout e, kai ni ka pabo toteh, nangmouh thung takangthonae ka pung sak vaiteh, na hringnae lah kaawm e na rawcanaw ka raphoe han.
And when I have sent against them shafts of famine, then they shall be consumed, and I will break the strength of thy bread.
17 Nangmouh koe takang hoi sarang ka tha vaiteh, na hringnae a pahma han. Lacik hoi kâtheinae ni na katum awh vaiteh, nangmouh koe tahloi ka thokhai han. Kai BAWIPA ni ka dei toe telah ati.
So I will send forth against thee famine and evil beasts, and I will take vengeance upon thee; and pestilence and blood shall pass through upon thee; and I will bring a sword upon thee round about. I the Lord have spoken.
