Ezekiel 8
1 In the sixth year, on the fifth day of the sixth month, I was sitting in my house, and the elders of Judah were sitting before me; and there the hand of the Lord GOD fell upon me.
Kum rhuk kum hla rhuk dongkah hnin nga a lo vaengah kamah im ah ka ngol tih kamah mikhmuh ah Judah kah patong rhoek khaw ngol uh. Te vaengah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah kut he kai sola pahoi ha tla.
2 Then I looked and saw a figure like that of a man. From His waist down His appearance was like fire, and from His waist up He was as bright as the gleam of amber.
Ka sawt vaengah hmai kah a mueimae bangla phek om he. A mueimae te a cinghen lamloh a dang due hmai bangla om. A cinghen lamloh a so duela rhohumbok kah a pang neh khophaa kah mueimae bangla om.
3 He stretched out what looked like a hand and took me by the hair of my head. Then the Spirit lifted me up between earth and heaven and carried me in visions of God to Jerusalem, to the entrance of the north gate of the inner court, where the idol that provokes jealousy was seated.
Kut kah muei bang te a thueng tih ka lu samtoel ah kai n'doek. Te vaengah mueihla loh kai he diklai laklo neh vaan laklo la m'pom. Te phoeiah kai te Pathen kah mangthui khuiah tlangpuei la aka mael Jerusalem khui kah vongka thohka la ng'khuen. Te te thatlainah mueimae neh aka thatlai kah tolrhum ni.
4 And there I saw the glory of the God of Israel, like the vision I had seen in the plain.
Te vaengah Israel Pathen kah thangpomnah he kolbawn ah a mueimae la pahoi ka hmuh coeng he.
5 “Son of man,” He said to me, “now lift up your eyes to the north.” So I lifted up my eyes to the north, and in the entrance north of the Altar Gate I saw this idol of jealousy.
Te phoeiah kai taengah, “Hlang capa aw, tlangpuei longpuei la na mik huel laeh,” a ti. Ka mik he tlangpuei longpuei la ka huel tangloeng hatah thatlainah mueimae kah hmueihtuk vongka te tlangpuei ah kak ka hmuh. Te te thohkaeng ah ni a om.
6 “Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see what they are doing—the great abominations that the house of Israel is committing—to drive Me far from My sanctuary? Yet you will see even greater abominations.”
Te phoeiah kai taengah, “Hlang capa, amih te na hmuh nama? Amih loh tueilaehkoi a saii uh khungdaeng coeng te. Ka rhokso lamloh lakhla ham he Israel imkhui long ni a saii. Tedae koep na mael vetih tueilaehkoi khaw muep na hmuh bitni,” a ti.
7 Then He brought me to the entrance to the court, and I looked and saw a hole in the wall.
Te phoeiah kai te vongup thohka la ng'khuen hatah pangbueng dongah a khui pakhat te lawt ka hmuh.
8 “Son of man,” He told me, “dig through the wall.” So I dug through the wall and discovered a doorway.
Te vaengah kai taengah, “Hlang capa, pangbueng te thuk laeh,” a ti. Te dongah pangbueng te ka thuk hatah thohka pakhat lawt ka hmuh.
9 Then He said to me, “Go in and see the wicked abominations they are committing here.”
Te phoeiah kai taengah, “Paan lamtah boethae rhoek kah tueilaehkoi te so lah, te te amih long ni he ah he a saii uh,” a ti.
10 So I went in and looked, and engraved all around the wall was every kind of crawling creature and detestable beast, along with all the idols of the house of Israel.
Ka kun vaengah rhulcai muei cungkuem neh konawhnah rhamsa kah mueirhol boeih khaw kak ka hmuh. Te te Israel im ah pangbueng kah a kaep a kaep ah a vuel.
11 Before them stood seventy elders of the house of Israel, with Jaazaniah son of Shaphan standing among them. Each had a censer in his hand, and a fragrant cloud of incense was rising.
Amih lakli ah Israel imkhui kah patong hlang sawmrhih neh Shaphan capa Jaazaniah khaw pai. Amih hmai ah aka pai hlang loh a kut dongah hmaibael te a pom. Te vaengah bo-ul kah a hu a thah la khu.
12 “Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see what the elders of the house of Israel are doing in the darkness, each at the shrine of his own idol? For they are saying, ‘The LORD does not see us; the LORD has forsaken the land.’”
Te phoeiah kai taengah, “Hlang capa, Israel im kah patong rhoek loh a ngaihlih imkhui kah hlang neh hmaisuep ah a saii te na hmuh nama? 'BOEIPA loh mamih m'hmuh pawt tih khohmuen he BOEIPA loh a hnoo coeng,” a ti uh,” a ti.
13 Again, He told me, “You will see them committing even greater abominations.”
Te phoeiah kai taengah, “Koep na mael vaengah amih loh tueilaehkoi a tanglue a saii uh te na hmuh bitni,” a ti.
14 Then He brought me to the entrance of the north gate of the house of the LORD, and I saw women sitting there, weeping for Tammuz.
Te dongah kai te tlangpuei kah BOEIPA im vongka kah thohka la m'pawk puei. Te vaengah manu tarha ana ngol pahoi tih Tammuz te a rhah uh.
15 “Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see this? Yet you will see even greater abominations than these.”
Te vaengah kai taengah, “Hlang capa na hmuh coeng nama? Koep na mael vaengah he lakah a nah la tueilaehkoi na hmuh ni,” a ti.
16 So He brought me to the inner court of the house of the LORD, and there at the entrance to the temple of the LORD, between the portico and the altar, were about twenty-five men with their backs to the temple of the LORD and their faces toward the east; and they were bowing to the east in worship of the sun.
Te phoeiah kai te BOEIPA im vongup khui la m'pawk puei. Te vaengah BOEIPA bawkim thohka kah ngalha laklo neh hmueihtuk laklo ah hlang pakul panga tluk ana om. BOEIPA bawkim te a hnuk la a rhoe uh tih a maelhmai khothoeng la a khuehuh. Amih loh khothoeng kah khomik te a bawk uh.
17 “Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see this? Is it not enough for the house of Judah to commit the abominations they are practicing here, that they must also fill the land with violence and continually provoke Me to anger? Look, they are even putting the branch to their nose!
Te vaengah kai taengah, “Hlang capa na hmuh coeng nama? Judah imkhui loh tueilaehkoi a saii te phoeng a? Khohmuen te kuthlahnah neh cung sak kuekluek ham ni a saii uh he. Kai veet ham ni mael uh tih amih loh a hnarhong te thingluei a hu thil lah ko te.
18 Therefore I will respond with wrath. I will not look on them with pity, nor will I spare them. Although they shout loudly in My ears, I will not listen to them.”
Te dongah kai loh kosi neh ka saii ni. Ka mik loh rhen pawt vetih lungma ka ti mahpawh. Ka hna ah ol ue la ng'khue uh cakhaw amih ol ka hnatun mahpawh,” a ti.
