< Ezekiel 16 >
1 Again the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
BAWIPA e lawk teh kai koe bout a pha.
2 Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,
Tami capa, Jerusalem panuet a thonae hah panuek sak nateh ahni koevah,
3 and say, Thus says the lord Jehovah to Jerusalem: Thy birth and thy nativity is from the land of the Canaanite. The Amorite was thy father, and thy mother was a Hittite.
Bawipa Jehovah ni Jerusalem koe hettelah a dei. Na khenae hoi na tâconae ram teh Kanaan taminaw e ram doeh. Na pa teh Amor tami lah ao teh na manu teh Hit tami doeh.
4 And as for thy nativity, in the day thou were born thy navel was not cut, nor were thou washed in water to cleanse thee. Thou were not salted at all, nor swaddled at all.
Na tâco nah apinihai na thunrui a awh hoeh. Thoung sak hanelah tui dawk hai na pâhluk awh hoeh. Palawi hai na hluk awh hoeh. Kabethueplah hni hoi hoi hai na kayo e hai nahoeh.
5 No eye pitied thee, to do any of these things to thee, to have compassion upon thee, but thou were cast out in the open field. For thy person was abhorred, in the day that thou were born.
Pahren hanelah na lathueng hete hnonaw ka sak hanelah, apie mit ni hai na pahren hoeh, vaipuen vah tâkhawng e lah na o. Bangkongtetpawiteh, na khe na hnin hoi panuet e lah na o.
6 And when I passed by thee, and saw thee weltering in thy blood, I said to thee, in thy blood, Live! Yea, I said to thee, in thy blood, Live!
Nang koe ka tho navah, thi hoi puk na kâkaawk e ka hmu navah, hring loe ka ti, nang teh thi dawk na o lahun nah kai ni ka dei.
7 I caused thee to multiply as that which grows in the field, and thou increased and grew great. And thou attained to excellent ornament, thy breasts were fashioned, and thy hair was grown. Yet thou were naked and bare.
Phokung patetlah na roung sak teh, nang teh pou na len sak e, kamcu meikahawi e hoi na kawi. Na sanu a roung teh na tak dawk hai a muen a tho. Hateiteh khohna tawn laipalah caici lah na o.
8 Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love. And I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness. Yea, I swore to thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, says the lord Jehovah, and thou became mine.
Nang koe ka tho nah na khet toteh, nange na tueng teh pahrennae tueng lah ao teh, kaie hni ka kadai teh caici lah na onae hah ka ramuk. Thoe hai na bo teh nang hoi lawkkamnae ka sak e lahoi, nang teh kaie ka yu lah na o telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei.
9 Then I washed thee with water. Yea, I thoroughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.
Tui hoi na pâsu teh na thipaling teh kathoungcalah ka pâsu teh satui na hluk.
10 I also clothed thee with embroidered work, and shod thee with a certain skin. And I girded thee around with fine linen, and covered thee with silk.
Pathoupnae hni hoi na pathoup teh, a pho phukaawm hoi na khokkhawm na khawm sak, loukloukkaang e hni na kâkhu sak.
11 And I decked thee with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain on thy neck.
Pathoupnae hoi na pathoup teh na kut dawk kuthrawt, na lahuen dawkvah sui dingyin,
12 And I put a ring upon thy nose, and earrings in thine ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.
na hnawng dawk hnongpacap, na hnâ dawk hnâpacap, na lû dawk kahawipoung e suilukhung na kâmuk sak.
13 Thus thou were decked with gold and silver, and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and embroidered work. Thou ate fine flour, and honey, and oil. And thou were very beautiful, and thou prospered to royalty.
Hottelah sui hoi ngun hoi pathoup e lah na o. Na khohna hai loukloukkaang e hni kahawipoung e carouk e hninaw doeh. Na ca hane bu teh tavai kanui hoi khoitui hoi satui doeh. Na kamcu, mei na hawi poung, siangpahrangnu lahoi na kuep doeh.
14 And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty. For it was perfect, through my majesty which I had put upon thee, says the lord Jehovah.
Na meihawinae na miphunnaw koe a kamthang, ka bawilen nahanelah pathoup e lahoi kuepcingnae na tawn telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei.
15 But thou trusted in thy beauty, and played the harlot because of thy renown, and poured out thy whoredoms on everyone who passed by; his it was.
Hateiteh, na meihawinae ekvoi na kâoup dawkvah, na min kamthangnae teh na kâyonae lah na hno. Ka cet kaawm e naw koe na kâyonae na pâpho teh, tongpa pueng ni tha a kâla awh.
16 And thou took of thy garments, and made high places for thee, decked with various colors, and played the harlot upon them, things which should not come, nor should it be.
Na khohna na rading teh hmuenrasang hah nama hanelah na pathoup. Hawvah, na kâyo. Het patetlae heh bout awm boi mahoeh toe.
17 Thou also took thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given thee, and made for thee images of men, and played the harlot with them.
Kaie sui hoi ngun hnopai kahawi kahawi na poe e na la teh, tongpa meikaphawk sak nahanelah na hno teh na kâyo.
18 And thou took thy embroidered garments, and covered them, and set my oil and my incense before them.
A meikahawi e na khohna hah na la teh, ahnimouh hah na kâkhu sak. Kaie satui hoi hmuitui hah a hmalah vah na pâhung.
19 My bread also which I gave thee, fine flour and oil and honey, with which I fed thee, thou even set it before them for a sweet savor, and thus it was, says the lord Jehovah.
Kai ni na poe e vaiyei hoi tavai kahawi e hoi satui hoi khoitui ouk na kawknae hah, hmuitui hanelah a hmalah na pâhung pouh teh, hettelah na toung vai yaw khe, telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei.
20 Moreover thou have taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou have borne to me, and thou have sacrificed these to them to be devoured. Were thy whoredoms a small matter,
Hothloilah, na canu capa na khe pouh e hah ahnimouh koe thuengnae koung hno hanelah na poe, na kâyonae heh rumram nahoeh.
21 that thou have slain my children, and delivered them up, in causing them to pass through the fire to them?
Ka canaw na thei teh, hmai hoi thueng hanelah ahnimouh koe na poe e naw hah,
22 And in all thine abominations and thy whoredoms thou have not remembered the days of thy youth when thou were naked and bare, and were weltering in thy blood.
panuet na thonae hoi na kâyonae naw pueng dawk na lung a mathoe lahun nae, caici lah na onae, thi puk na kâkaawk lahun nae hah na naw nah hoi na panuek hoeh mue toe.
23 And it has come to pass according to all thy wickedness, (woe, woe to thee! says the lord Jehovah),
Na hawihoehnae naw a hnukkhu hettelah doeh. Lungmathoe hanlah ao telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a ti.
24 that thou have built thyself a vaulted place, and have made thee a lofty place in every street.
Lamthung tangkuem meikaphawk bawknae hmuen na sak, nama na kâyo nahane im na sak.
25 Thou have built thy lofty place at the head of every way, and have made thy beauty an abomination. And have opened thy feet to everyone who passed by, and multiplied thy whoredom.
Lamthung kâracutnae koe pueng vah, kâyonae im na sak, na meihawinae teh panuettho lah na coung sak. Ka cet kaawm pueng koe na kâpoe teh na kâyonae teh hoe a pap.
26 Thou have also committed fornication with the Egyptians, thy neighbors, great of flesh, and have multiplied thy whoredom, to provoke me to anger.
Izip tami na imri koevah, na kâyo teh, ka lungkhuek nahanelah na kâyonae na nut sak.
27 Behold therefore, I have stretched out my hand over thee, and have diminished thy portion, and delivered thee to the will of those who hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of thy lewd way.
Hatdawkvah, khenhaw! na lathueng vah ka kut ka dâw teh, ouk na ca boi e bu ka youn sak teh, nang ka maithoe e Filistin tami napui na kâyonae na kayakkhai e poung koe, a ngaithaithue na sak hanelah na poe.
28 Thou have played the harlot also with the Assyrians, because thou were insatiable. Yea, thou have played the harlot with them, and yet thou were not satisfied.
Assirianaw koehai na kâyo teh, a khout toe tie hai na panuek hoeh.
29 Thou have moreover multiplied thy whoredom to the land of traffic, to Chaldea, and yet thou were not satisfied with this.
Kanaan ram Khaldeannaw koe vah na kâyonae bout na nut sak teh, na khout kalawn hoeh.
30 How weak is thy heart, says the lord Jehovah, seeing thou do all these things, the work of an impudent harlot,
Na lungthin banghloimaw a kamko. Na kâroekâkhawinae dawk a lung ka patak e napui patetlah hno na kâyo telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a ti.
31 in that thou build thy vaulted place at the head of every way, and make thy lofty place in every street. And have not even been as a harlot, in that thou scorn hire.
Lam a kâcunae koe pueng tami pawpnae rim hah na sak teh, lamsalun tangkuem koe e kâkaawknae hmuen na sak e naw dawkvah aphu na hei hoeh dawkvah, kâyawt e lah na awm hoeh toe.
32 A wife who commits adultery, who takes strangers instead of her husband!
Thoundoun alouke hoi ka ip e napui, vanaw hlak tami alouke ka ngaihnawn e napuinaw,
33 They give gifts to all harlots, but thou give thy gifts to all thy lovers, and bribe them, that they may come to thee on every side for thy whoredoms.
tongpa ni kâyawt e napui koe aphu ouk a poe awh. Nang ni teh na ka ngai e koe doeh letlang na poe. Ram tangkuem hoi a tho awh teh, na ikhai nahanelah nama ni ouk na pasawt.
34 And thou are different from other women in thy whoredoms, in that none follows thee to play the harlot. And whereas thou give a wage, and no wage is given to thee, therefore thou are different.
Na kâyonae dawk apinihai na pâtam hoeh e hah, kâyawt e alouke hoi na kâvanhoehnae doeh. Apinihai aphu na poe awh hoeh niteh, nang ni law dai na poe e hah kâvanhoehnae doeh.
35 Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of Jehovah.
Hatdawkvah Oe kâyawt e napui, BAWIPA e lawk hah thai haw.
36 Thus says the lord Jehovah: Because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness uncovered through thy whoredoms with thy lovers, and because of all the idols of thy abominations, and for the blood of thy sons, that thou gave to them,
Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, panuet na thonae teh, meikaphawknaw hoi, na kâyonae hoi, caici lah na onae kamnue sak e lahoi, ahnimouh koe na poe e na canaw e thipaling kecu dawkvah,
37 therefore, behold, I will gather all thy lovers, with whom thou have taken pleasure, and all those whom thou have loved, with all those whom thou have hated, I will even gather them against thee on every side. And I will uncover thy nakedness to them, that they may see all thy nakedness.
Khenhaw! na ka ipkhai e hoi na ka pahren e tami pueng, na ka maithoe e pueng hah ka pâkhueng han, nang koe ka thokhai vaiteh, caici lah na onae a hmu awh thai nahan, ahnimouh koe caici lah na onae hah kamnue sak han.
38 And I will judge thee, as women who break wedlock and shed blood are judged. And I will bring upon thee the blood of wrath and jealousy.
Hahoi napui a vâ a kapek teh, mae canaw thipaling palawngnae kong dawk lawk ouk ceng e patetlah nange kong heh lawkceng awh han, lungkhueknae hoi ka patawpoung e lungphuennae ka pha sak han.
39 I will also give thee into their hand, and they shall throw down thy vaulted place, and break down thy lofty places. And they shall strip thee of thy clothes, and take thy fair jewels, and they shall leave thee naked and bare.
Ahnimae kut dawk na poe vaiteh, na kâkaawknae ka raphoe han. Na hmuenrasangnaw ka rawp sak han. Na khohnanaw hah a rading awh vaiteh, a phukaawm e painapaitunnaw a la awh han, hni laipalah tak caici lah na hruek awh han.
40 They shall also bring up a company against thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swords.
Tami moikapap a kaw vaiteh, ahnimouh ni talung hoi na dei awh han. Tahloi hoi na bouk awh han.
41 And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women. And I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou shall also give no wage any more.
Nange im hah hmai hoi a sawi awh han. Napui moikapap a hmunae koe nange lathueng lawkcengnae a pha sak han. Na kâyonae teh ka pout sak vaiteh, nang teh ayânaw na hlai mahoeh toe.
42 So I will cause my wrath toward thee to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will be quiet, and will no more be angry.
Hottelah hoi ka lungkhueknae hah na lathueng vah ka kuepcalah ka kamnue sak han. Na dipmanae hai nangmouh koe hoi ka takhoe vaiteh, muengmueng ka o han, ka lungkhuek mahoeh toe.
43 Because thou have not remembered the days of thy youth, but have raged against me in all these things, therefore, behold, I also will bring thy way upon thy head, says the lord Jehovah. And thou shall not commit this lewdness with all thine abominations.
Na nawnae hnin hah na pahnim teh, hete hnonaw dawk rucatnae na poe dawkvah, khenhaw! na kâroenae patetlah na lathueng ka pha sak han, telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei. Hahoi panuet na thonae pueng thap sin hanelah, hete na kâyonae na sak mahoeh toe.
44 Behold, everyone who uses proverbs shall use this proverb against thee, saying, As is the mother, so is her daughter.
Khenhaw! cingthuilawk kaduemca ka hno e pueng ni hete cingthuilawk hah a hno awh han, a canu ni a manu phek a la, tie hah.
45 Thou are the daughter of thy mother, who loathes her husband and her sons. And thou are the sister of thy sisters, who loathed their husbands and their sons. Your mother was a Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
Na manu mae vâcanaw patenghai kapanuetkung, canu lah na o, hmaunawngha coungnae koe lah mae vâ hoi canaw kapanuetkung hmaunawngha lah na o. Na manu Hit tami doeh, napanaw hah Amornaw doeh.
46 And thine elder sister is Samaria, who dwells at thy left hand, she and her daughters. And thy younger sister, who dwells at thy right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.
Na tawncanu teh Samaria, nange avoilah kho ouk ka sak e hah ama hoi a canunaw hoi doeh. Na hmau na nawngha hoi aranglah kho ouk ka sak e hah teh Sodom hoi a canunaw doeh.
47 Yet thou have not walked in their ways, nor done according to their abominations, but, like it was a very little thing, thou were more corrupt than they in all thy ways.
A hring nuencang hah na tarawi hoeh eiteh, panuet a tho awh e patetlah na sak hoeh ei, na hring nathung e na payonpakainae naw pouk toteh, hothateh, dei hane kamcu hoeh.
48 As I live, says the lord Jehovah, Sodom thy sister has not done, she nor her daughters, as thou have done, thou and thy daughters.
Kai ka hring e patetlah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei, nang nama hoi na canaw ni a sak awh e heh, a hmaunawngha Sodom hoi a canu ni hai sak awh hoeh.
49 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom: pride, fullness of bread, and prosperous ease was in her and in her daughters, and she did not strengthen the hand of a poor and needy man.
Na hmaunawngha Sodom a yonnae teh, hetnaw hah doeh, kâoupnae hoi king ka boum lah canae ama hoi a canunaw a nawmnae lah ao teh, tami ka roedeng hoi voutthoup e taminaw hah kabawm awh hoeh.
50 And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me. Therefore I took them away as I saw fit.
Kâoupnae poung e lah ao teh kaie kahma lah panuettho e hno kasakkungnaw doeh, hatdawkvah, ahawi ka tie patetlah kai ni ka raphoe toe.
51 Neither has Samaria committed half of thy sins, but thou have multiplied thine abominations more than they, and have justified thy sisters by all thine abominations which thou have done.
Samaria nihai, nang ni na sak e yonnae a tangen boehai sak hoeh. Ahnimanaw hlak panuet ka thoe e hno hah na sak dawkvah, na hmaunawnghanaw e yon hah na kamnuek sak hoeh.
52 Thou also, bear thou thine own shame, in that thou have given judgment for thy sisters, through thy sins that thou have committed more abominable than they. They are more righteous than thou. Yea, be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, in that thou have justified thy sisters.
Na hmaunawnghanaw kalanhnawn lah na kamnue sak dawkvah, nang nama roeroe ni na yeiraiponae teh na phu hanelah ao. Ahnimanaw hlak panuetthopounge hno hah hoe kapap lah na sak teh, na hawihoehnae kecu dawk, ahnimouh teh nangmanaw hlak vah a lan hnawn. Na hmaunawngha kalanhnawn lah na kamnuesaknae dawkvah, kayak poung e hoi yeiraiponae hah na coe han.
53 And I will turn back again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and the captivity of thy captives in the midst of them,
Hahoi, Sodom hoi a canu e hringnuen hoi ahnimouh hoi nangmae hringnuen hai ka thung han.
54 that thou may bear thine own shame, and may be ashamed because of all that thou have done, in that thou are a comfort to them.
Ahnimouh han roumnae lah ouk na onae dawkvah, na sak e hnopueng kecu dawk na kayayeirai lah na o thai nahan,
55 And thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former estate, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate, and thou and thy daughters shall return to your former estate.
Na hmaunawngha Sodom hoi a canunaw hoi Samaria hoi a canunaw hah, a hringnuen hmaloe e patetlah bout a hring awh vaiteh, nang hoi na canunaw hai, ahmaloe e na hringnae dawkvah, bout na hring awh han.
56 For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride,
Na hawihoehnae hmu hoehnahlan e, na bawilennae hnin dawkvah, na hmaunawngha Sodom teh a min kuekluek dei mahoeh namaw.
57 before thy wickedness was uncovered, as at the time of the reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all who are round about her, the daughters of the Philistines, who do despite to thee round about.
Atuteh, Siria canu hoi atengpam e tami pueng Filistin canunaw nang teng e na ka panuikhainaw hoi puenghoi na kapathoenaw,
58 Thou have borne thy lewdness and thine abominations, says Jehovah.
na kâyonae hoi panuet na thonae hah pou na kampu telah BAWIPA ni a ti.
59 For thus says the lord Jehovah: I will also deal with thee as thou have done, who have despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Lawkkam e hah tapuet teh, lawkkam e banglahai na noutna hoeh e patetlah na lathueng ka sak van han.
60 Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish to thee an everlasting covenant.
Hateiteh, na camo nah nang koe ka lawkkam e hah ka pahnim mahoeh, nang koe vah a yungyoe kangning e lawkkamnae ka sak han.
61 Then thou shall remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when thou shall receive thy sisters, thine elder sisters and thy younger, and I will give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.
Hottelah hmaunawnghanaw hah na coe awh navah, na lung a ang vaiteh, na kayakhai han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang koe lawk ka kam kecu dawk nahoeh niteh, ahnimouh teh a canu hanelah na poe han.
62 And I will establish my covenant with thee, and thou shall know that I am Jehovah,
Nang koe ka lawkkam e ka cak sak vaiteh, BAWIPA lah ka o tie hah na panue awh han.
63 that thou may remember, and be confounded, and never open thy mouth any more, because of thy shame, when I have forgiven thee all that thou have done, says the lord Jehovah.
Nang ni ouk na sak boi e pueng yontha lah ao han. Ka lung a roum toteh, kai ni na pahnim mahoeh. Kayanae takinae hoi minhmai mathoe kecu dawk lawk ka dei laipalah, ka o han telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a ti.
