< Ezekiel 6 >

1 BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 tami capa Isarel mon hah radoung haw. Ahnimouh koe taranlahoi pâpho haw.
“Son of man, set your face toward the mountains of Israel, and you shall prophesy against them,
3 Isarel monnaw Bawipa Jehovah e lawk ngai awh. Bawipa Jehovah ni ram hoi monrui koe thoseh, tanghling hoi ravo koe thoseh hettelah dei haw, kai kama roeroe nangmouh koe tahloi ka pha sak vaiteh, hmuenrasang be ka raphoe han.
and you shall say: O mountains of Israel, listen to the word of the Lord God! Thus says the Lord God to the mountains and hills and cliffs and valleys: Behold, I will lead over you the sword. And I will destroy your exalted places.
4 Nangmae khoungroenaw teh kingkadi lah ka o sak han. Nangmae meikaphawk cathutnaw be ka rek sak han. Kutsak meikaphawknaw e hmaitung, nangmae ransanaw be ka raphoe han.
And I will demolish your altars. And your graven images will be broken apart. And I will throw down your slain before your idols.
5 Isarelnaw e a ronaw meikaphawk teng koe ka hruek han, na hrunaw hah khoungroe petkâkalup lah ka yat han.
And I will lay the dead bodies of the sons of Israel before the face of your idols. And I will scatter your bones around your altars.
6 Na khosaknae khopui pueng a ro vaiteh, hmuenrasang pueng kingkadi lah ao han. Khoungroenaw be raphoe vaiteh, meikaphawk pueng be tâtueng vaiteh, nangmouh ni na sak e hnonaw be a rawkphai awh han.
In all of your habitations, the cities will be made desolate, and the exalted places will be torn down and scattered. And your altars will be broken and destroyed. And your idols will cease to exist. And your shrines will be crushed. And your works will be wiped away.
7 Thei e naw nangmouh umsali a rawp awh han. Hottelah hoi BAWIPA lah ka o tie na panue awh han
And the slain will fall in your midst. And you shall know that I am the Lord.
8 Hateiteh, ram tangkuem koung na kâkahei toteh, miphunnaw thung dawk tahloi hoi na kahlout e hai na o awh han. A tangawn teh na pâhlung awh han rah.
And I will leave among you those who will escape the sword among the Gentiles, when I will have dispersed you upon the earth.
9 Nangmouh thung dawk hoi ka hlout e naw ni san lah a ceinae hmuen miphunnaw koevah, kai na pahnim awh mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, alouke meikaphawk ngainae lungthin, kai koehoi kâkapeknae hoi, meikaphawk koe a kâyo awh, a mitnaw cawngkhawi toe tie a kâpanue awh vaiteh, panuetthopoung a sakpayonnae kecu dawk amahoima a kâpanuet awh han.
And your liberated shall remember me among the nations to which they were led away as captives. For I have crushed their heart, which fornicated and withdrew from me, and their eyes, which fornicated after their idols. And they will be displeased with themselves over the evils that they have done by all their abominations.
10 BAWIPA lah ka o teh, a lathueng vah hete rawkphainae heh, ka pha sak han telah ka dei e hah rumram nahoeh tie hah a panue awh han telah ati.
And they shall know that I, the Lord, have not spoken in vain, that I would do this evil to them.”
11 Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Na kut tambei nateh, na khok hoi kamleng haw. Aya! panuettho e Isarel imthung yonnae kecu dawk na ou, bangkong tahloi, takangnae hoi lacik patawnae hoi due awh han.
Thus says the Lord God: “Strike with your hand, and stomp with your foot, and say: ‘Alas, to all the abominations of the evils of the house of Israel!’ For they will fall by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence.
12 Lamhla pui lah kaawm e hah lacik patawnae hoi a due awh vaiteh, kahnaicalah kaawm e hah tahloi hoi a due awh han. Kacawiraenaw hah takang hoi a due awh mingming han. Het patetlae ka patawpoung e ka lungkhueknae hah a lathueng vah ka kuep sak han.
Whoever is far away will die of pestilence. But whoever is near will fall by the sword. And whoever remains and is besieged will die by famine. And I will fulfill my indignation among them.
13 Meikaphawknaw koe hmuitui hah a thuengnae hmuen, khoungroenaw tengpam rasangnae hmuen, monsom kaawm pueng e a lathueng, kahring e thingkung, tâhlip kahawi e thingkung rahim tangkuem vah, meikaphawknaw a rawp awh teh, a due awh toteh, kai teh BAWIPA lah ka o tie a panue awh han.
And you shall know that I am the Lord, when your slain will be in the midst of your idols, all around your altars, on every exalted hill, and on the summits of all the mountains, and under every dense tree, and under every leafy oak: the places where they burned sweet-smelling incense to all their idols.
14 Ahnimae a lathueng vah ka kut ka dâw vaiteh, Diblah kho hoi kâkuen e khosaknae hmuen pueng kahrawngum hah tami kingdinae, kângairunae hoe ka o sak torei teh, kai teh BAWIPA lah ka o tie a panue awh han telah ati.
And I will extend my hand over them. And I will make the earth desolate and destitute: from the desert of Riblah to all their dwelling places. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
