Ezekiel 33
1 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
2 “Son of man, speak to your people and tell them: ‘Suppose I bring the sword against a land, and the people of that land choose a man from among them, appointing him as their watchman,
tami capa, na miphun na catoun koe lawk dei haw. Ram dawk tahloi ka pha sak teh, ram dawk e taminaw ni amamouh thung dawk e tami buet touh a la awh teh, ramveng lah a hruek awh toteh,
3 and he sees the sword coming against that land and blows the ram’s horn to warn the people.
ram dawk tahloi a pha e a hmu toteh, mongka hah ueng laihoi taminaw hah kâhruetcuetnae poe pawiteh,
4 Then if anyone hears the sound of the horn but fails to heed the warning, and the sword comes and takes him away, his blood will be on his own head.
mongka ueng e pawlawk ka thai e pueng ni kâhruetcuet lai hoi awm laipalah, tahloi hoi a due nakunghai, a thipaling phu teh a ma ni a khang han.
5 Since he heard the sound of the horn but failed to heed the warning, his blood will be on his own head. If he had heeded the warning, he would have saved his life.
Mongka lawk a thai nahlangva, kâhruetcuet poenae banglahai a noutna hoeh dawkvah, a thipaling phu teh a khang han. Hateiteh, a lawkpui lah hrueng pawiteh, a hringnae a rungngang han.
6 But if the watchman sees the sword coming and fails to blow the horn to warn the people, and the sword comes and takes away a life, then that one will be taken away in his iniquity, but I will hold the watchman accountable for his blood.’
Hateiteh, ramveng ni tahloi a pha e hah a hmu teh, mongka ueng hoeh lah, taminaw hah kâhruetcuetnae poe laipalah, ka phat e tahloi ni ahnimouh thung e tami buetbuet touh dout sak pawiteh, payonnae dawk a due han. A thipaling phu teh ramveng koe ka suk han telah dei pouh.
7 As for you, O son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; so hear the word from My mouth and give them the warning from Me.
Hot patetlah nang tami capa, Isarel imthung hanelah, ramveng lah na rawi, hatdawkvah, ka pahni dawk hoi ka tâcawt e lawk hah na thai teh, kai hanelah kâhruetcuetnae na poe awh han.
8 If I say to the wicked, ‘O wicked man, you will surely die,’ but you do not speak out to dissuade him from his way, then that wicked man will die in his iniquity, yet I will hold you accountable for his blood.
Tamikathout koe, Oe! tamikathout na due roeroe han, telah ka ti toteh, tamikathout teh a hringnuen kamlang khai hanelah, kâhruetcuetnae na poe hoeh, haw e tamikathout teh a yon dawk dout pawiteh, a thipaling phu teh nang koe na suk han.
9 But if you warn the wicked man to turn from his way, and he does not turn from it, he will die in his iniquity, but you will have saved your life.
Nahoeh pawiteh, tamikathout teh a hringnuen ceitakhai hanelah kâhruetcuetnae na poe ei, a hringnuen cettakhai hoeh boilah, a payonnae dawk a due han, nang teh na hringnae na rungngang lah ao han.
10 Now as for you, son of man, tell the house of Israel that this is what they have said: ‘Our transgressions and our sins are heavy upon us, and we are wasting away because of them! How can we live?’
Hatdawkvah, tami capa Isarel imthung koevah, hettelah dei haw, ka sak e yonnae hoi lawkeknae ni na ratet, hote hno kecu dawk ka rawknae lah awm pawiteh, bangtelamaw ka hring thai awh han, telah na ti awh.
11 Say to them: ‘As surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked should turn from their ways and live. Turn! Turn from your evil ways! For why should you die, O house of Israel?’
Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei e teh, kai ka hring e patetlah tamikathout teh, a duenae dawk ka lunghawinae ka tawn hoeh, tamikathout ni a hringnuen a ceitakhai e doeh kai ka lunghawinae lah ao.
12 Therefore, son of man, say to your people: ‘The righteousness of the righteous man will not deliver him in the day of his transgression; neither will the wickedness of the wicked man cause him to stumble on the day he turns from his wickedness. Nor will the righteous man be able to survive by his righteousness on the day he sins.’
Kahawi hoeh e na hringnuen koehoi ban awh. Ban awh, Oe! Isarel imthungnaw bang dawk ne na due awh han, telah ati. Hatdawkvah, nang tami capa na taminaw koe dei haw. Tamikalan teh rawm pawiteh a lannae ni a rungngang thai mahoeh. Tamikathout ni thoenae hah roun pawiteh, ahmaloe e a thoenae kecu dawk rawknae koe phat mahoeh. Tamikalan teh a yonnae hnin dawk hring thai kalawn mahoeh.
13 If I tell the righteous man that he will surely live, but he then trusts in his righteousness and commits iniquity, then none of his righteous works will be remembered; he will die because of the iniquity he has committed.
Tamikalan koevah na hring roeroe han telah ka ti navah, a lannae kâuep hoi yonnae sak pawiteh, lannae a sak e hah buet touh hai panue pouh e lah awm mahoeh, yonnae a saknae dawkvah a due han.
14 But if I tell the wicked man, ‘You will surely die,’ and he turns from his sin and does what is just and right—
Tamikayon koevah na due roeroe han, bout ka ti pouh teh, a yonnae kamlang takhai pawiteh, thoungnae hoi lannae a sak toteh,
15 if he restores a pledge, makes restitution for what he has stolen, and walks in the statutes of life without practicing iniquity—then he will surely live; he will not die.
Tamikayon na hung e hno hah a pâban teh, a paru e hah bout a poe, hringnae a phunglam hah a tarawi payonnae banghai sak hoehpawiteh, a hring roeroe han, dout mahoeh.
16 None of the sins he has committed will be held against him. He has done what is just and right; he will surely live.
Yonnae a sak tangcoung e hah nâtuek hai pâkuem pouh mahoeh toe. Thoungnae hoi lannae a sak toung dawkvah, a hring roeroe han.
17 Yet your people say, ‘The way of the Lord is not just.’ But it is their way that is not just.
Hateiteh, na taminaw ni BAWIPA hno sak e lan hoeh ati awh toteh, a sak awh e hah a lan hoeh dawk doeh.
18 If a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, he will die for it.
Tamikalan ni a lannae kamlang takhai teh yonnae sak pawiteh, hote kecu dawk a due han.
19 But if a wicked man turns from his wickedness and does what is just and right, he will live because of this.
Tamikayon ni a yonnae a kamlang takhai teh, thoungnae hoi lannae sak pawiteh, hote lahoi a hring han.
20 Yet you say, ‘The way of the Lord is not just.’ But I will judge each of you according to his ways, O house of Israel.”
Hateiteh, BAWIPA hnosaknae heh, lan hoeh telah na ti awh, Oe! Isarel imthungnaw, tami pueng amamae a hringnae patetlah lawkceng han telah a ti.
21 In the twelfth year of our exile, on the fifth day of the tenth month, a fugitive from Jerusalem came to me and reported, “The city has been taken!”
Kaimouh santoungnae kum hlaikahni, thapa yung hra, hnin panga hnin vah, Jerusalem hoi ka yawng e tami buet touh kai koe a tho teh, khopui teh tâ e lah ao toe telah a ti.
22 Now the evening before the fugitive arrived, the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He opened my mouth before the man came to me in the morning. So my mouth was opened and I was no longer mute.
Hote ka yawng e a pha hoehnahlan tangminlah, BAWIPA ni kaie lathueng a kut a toung, amom lah kai koe a tho navah, ka pahni yo na ang sak toe. Hottelah ka pahni ka ang teh, lawk ka dei thai laipalah ka o.
23 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
24 “Son of man, those living in the ruins in the land of Israel are saying, ‘Abraham was only one man, yet he possessed the land. But we are many; surely the land has been given to us as a possession.’
tami capa ka rawk e Isarel ram dawk kaawm rae ahnimouh ni Abraham teh buet touh dueng eiteh, ram teh a ring. Maimouh teh moipap awh teh ram râw lah na poe awh toe nahoehmaw, telah ati awh.
25 Therefore tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘You eat meat with the blood in it, lift up your eyes to your idols, and shed blood. Should you then possess the land?
Hatdawkvah, ahnimouh koe Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Moi hah a thi hoi na ca awh teh, meikaphawknaw koe na mit na um sak awh, tami na thei awh, nangmouh ni ram hah na coe awh han na maw.
26 You have relied on your swords, you have committed detestable acts, and each of you has defiled his neighbor’s wife. Should you then possess the land?’
Na tahloi na kâuep awh teh, panuettho e hno hah na sak awh. Na imri e yunaw na yonkhai awh, nangmouh ni ram hah na coe han na maw.
27 Tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘As surely as I live, those in the ruins will fall by the sword, those in the open field I will give to be devoured by wild animals, and those in the strongholds and caves will die by plague.
Hettelah ahnimouh koe na dei pouh han, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, Kai ka hring e patetlah ka rawk e ram dawk kaawm e hah tahloi hoi a due roeroe han, kahrawngum kaawm e hah, sarang ni a ca hanelah ka poe han. Kacake rapanim hoi talung kâko dawk kaawm e hah lacik patawnae hoi a due awh han.
28 I will make the land a desolate waste, and the pride of her strength will come to an end. The mountains of Israel will become desolate, so that no one will pass through.
Ram pueng kingdi vaiteh, takikathopounge lah ka o sak han, a hnotithainae a kâoupnae hah a baw han toe. Isarel mon teh kingdi vaiteh, apinihai cet awm awh mahoeh toe.
29 Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I have made the land a desolate waste because of all the abominations they have committed.’
Panuet ka tho e hno a sak awh kecu dawkvah, a ram teh ka raphoe vaiteh, takikathopounge lah ka o sak hnukkhu, kai teh BAWIPA lah ka o tie a panue awh han.
30 As for you, son of man, your people are talking about you near the city walls and in the doorways of their houses. One speaks to another, each saying to his brother, ‘Come and hear the message that has come from the LORD!’
Hathnukkhu nang, tami capa, tapang teng e takhangnaw koe, na taminaw hoi pou na dei awh vaiteh, tami pueng ni a hmaunawngha koevah, tho awh haw, BAWIPA koe e lawk thai awh haw sei, telah ati awh han.
31 So My people come to you as usual, sit before you, and hear your words; but they do not put them into practice. Although they express love with their mouths, their hearts pursue dishonest gain.
Kaie tami patetlah nang koe a tho vaiteh, kaie ka tami patetlah na hmalah a tahung awh vaiteh, nange na lawk a thai nakunghai yah, tarawi awh mahoeh. Ngai ka tho poung e mitnoutnae hah a pahni hoi a kamnue sak nakunghai, a lungthin ni talai hno dueng hah a pouk awh han.
32 Indeed, you are to them like a singer of love songs with a beautiful voice, who skillfully plays an instrument. They hear your words but do not put them into practice.
Khenhaw! nang teh ahnimae lah pahrennae la, kahawipoung lah sak e hoi kahawicalah kueng e lah na o han, na lawk a thai awh han, hatei tarawi awh mahoeh.
33 So when it comes to pass—and surely it will come—then they will know that a prophet has been among them.”
Hattoteh a pha han toe, khenhaw! a pha torei teh, ahnimouh koe profet ao tie hah ahnimouh ni a panue awh han telah, tet pouh telah a ti.
