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.
Ataruknae kum, ataruknae thapa, hnin panga hnin vah, kai teh kama im ka tahung navah, Judah miphun kacuenaw kaie hmalah a tahung awh navah, Bawi Jehovah e kut hah kaie lathueng vah a pha.
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 khet navah hmai patetlah ka kamnuek e tami hah ao. A keng koehoi a rahim lah hmai patetlah a kamnue. A keng koehoi a lathueng lah a kamnue teh a ang poung.
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 patet e a dâw teh, ka tampa sam dawk hoi na man. Muitha ni talai hoi kalvan rahak vah na tawm teh, Cathut a kamnuenae im Jerusalem vah a ceikhai. Jerusalem a tung lae tumdumnae thung hoi longkha tho tarennae a kung koe, na phakhai. Hawvah lungkhueknae meikaphawk tahungnae hmuen ao teh, hote ni a lungkhuek sak.
4 And there I saw the glory of the God of Israel, like the vision I had seen in the plain.
Khenhaw! ayawn dawk ka hmu e patetlah haw tueng vah Isarel Cathut bawilennae ao.
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.
Ahni ni tami capa atunglah kamlang nateh na mit hoi radoung haw telah ati. Hottelah atunglah kangvawi laihoi ka mit hoi ka radoung navah, khenhaw! khoungroe takhang kâennae koe lungkhueknae meikaphawk teh ao.
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.”
Ahni ni kai koevah, tami capa hmuen kathoung koehoi kahlatpoung lah na kacetkhaikung ahnimouh ni panuet hoe ka tho e hah Isarel imthung ni hitueng vah a sak awh. Hmuen kathoung koehoi kahlatpoung lah ka cei nahanelah, a sak awh e hah na hmu maw. Atu kamlang haw panuet hoe ka tho e na hmu han.
7 Then He brought me to the entrance to the court, and I looked and saw a hole in the wall.
Thongma e takhang koe totouh kai hah na ceikhai teh, ka khet navah tapang dawk a kâko teh ao.
8 “Son of man,” He told me, “dig through the wall.” So I dug through the wall and discovered a doorway.
Tami capa, tapang hah tai haw ati e patetlah kai ni ka tai teh takhang ka aw e ka hmu.
9 Then He said to me, “Go in and see the wicked abominations they are committing here.”
Kâen haw hie hmuen koe na sak awh e panuettho e kahawi hoeh e a sak awh e khenhaw! telah ati.
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 kâen teh ka khet navah, tapang tangkuem dawk vonpui hoi kâva e khe hoi, panuettho e moithang phunkuep hoi Isarel imthungnaw ni a bawk awh e meikaphawknaw e mei kaawm pueng hah a vo awh.
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.
Hote a hmalah Isarel kacuenaw thung hoi tami 70 touh a kangdue awh. A lungui vah Shaphan capa Jaazaniah hah a kangdue. Tami pueng ni tongben rip a patuep awh teh, hmuitui hmai a sawi awh teh, hmaikhu teh a tung lah a luen.
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.’”
Tami capa, Isarel imthung kacuenaw ni ka hmawt e rakhan thung kaawm e a sak awh e hno hah na hmu toung. Ahnimouh ni BAWIPA ni na hmawt hoeh, BAWIPA ni ram teh a ceitakhai toe telah ati awh.
13 Again, He told me, “You will see them committing even greater abominations.”
Ahni ni kai koevah, bout kamlang haw, a sak awh e panuetthopounge hah na hmu hah telah ati.
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.
BAWIPA im atunglah hoi kâennae longkha tho koe na ceikhai. Khenhaw! haw vah napuinaw Tammuz pouk laihoi a ka awh teh a tahung awh.
15 “Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see this? Yet you will see even greater abominations than these.”
Ahni ni kai koevah, Oe tami capa, hetheh na hmu maw. Hethlak patenghai panuettho e hai a na hmu han rah telah ati.
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.
BAWIPA im thongma a thung totouh na ceikhai teh, bawkim takhang bawkim alawilah hoi khoungroe rahak vah, tami 25 touh bawkim hnamthun takhai hoi kanîtholah a kamlang awh teh, Kanîtholae kanî hah a bawk awh.
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!
Ahni ni kai koe hetheh na hmu ou. Oe tami capa, panuettho e a sak awh teh, hi tueng a sak awh e hah Judah imthung hanelah hno titca namaw. Ram teh kâyue kâounnae hoi a kawi sak awh teh, ka lungkhuek sak awh, thinghna hoi a hnawng a ramuk awh.
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.”
Hatdawkvah, kai ni hai lungkhueknae lahoi ka sak van han. Ka mit ni roun mahoeh, ka pahren mahoeh. Ka hnâkâko dawk kacaipounglah ka hram nakunghai ka thai pouh mahoeh telah ati.
