Ezekiel 22
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk tih,
2 “And you, son of man, should you not judge, should you not judge the city of blood?
“Nang hlang capa aw, lai na tloek aya? Thii aka long khopuei te lai na tloek aya? Anih te a tueilaehkoi boeih ming sak.
3 And you shall reveal to her all her abominations. And you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: This is the city which sheds blood in her midst, so that her time may come, and which has made idols against herself, so that she may be defiled.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he thui pah. Khopuei loh amah tue pai sak ham a laklung ah thii a long sak tih amah aka poeih ham mueirhol a saii.
4 You have offended by your blood, which you shed from yourself. And you have been defiled by your idols which you yourself made. And you have caused your days to approach, and you have brought on the time of your years. Because of this, I have made you a disgrace to the Gentiles, and a derision to all the lands.
Na thii na hawk te na boe tih na mueirhol na saii long te m'poeih. Na khohnin ha tawn uh tih na kum te ha pawk coeng. Te dongah nang te namtom kah kokhahnah neh diklai pum kah soehsalkoi la kang khueh coeng.
5 Those that are near and those that are far from you will triumph over you. You are filthy, infamous, great in destruction.
Nang lamkah a yoei neh a hla loh nang te n'soehsal uh vetih, rhalawt ming dongah soekloeknah bae ni.
6 Behold, the leaders of Israel have each used his arm to shed blood within you.
Israel khoboei rhoek aih ke, a bantha neh na khuiah thii hawk ham hlang om coeng.
7 They have abused father and mother within you. The new arrival has been oppressed in your midst. They have grieved the orphan and the widow among you.
Manu napa te a vapsa tak uh tih na khuikah yinlai te hnaemtaeknah neh a saii uh. Na khui kah cadah neh nuhmai te namah khui ah na vuelvaek uh.
8 You have spurned my sanctuaries, and you have defiled my Sabbaths.
Kai kah a cim te na hnaep uh tih ka Sabbath te na poeih uh.
9 Maligning men were within you, in order to shed blood, and they have eaten upon the mountains within you. They have worked wickedness in your midst.
Thii hawk sak ham te na khuiah caemtuh hlang rhoek om uh. Na khuikah loh tlang ah a caak tih na khui ah khonuen rhamtat a saii uh.
10 They have uncovered the nakedness of their father within you. They have debased the uncleanness of the menstruous woman within you.
Pa kah a yah te na khuiah a poelyoe tih pumom kah a rhalawt neh na khuiah phaep uh.
11 And each one has committed abomination with the wife of his neighbor. And the father-in-law has heinously defiled his daughter-in-law. The brother has oppressed his sister, the daughter of his father, within you.
Hlang he a hui yuu taengah tueilaehkoi a saii tih hlang he amah langa khaw khonuen rhamtat la a poeih. Hlang he a napa canu, amah ngannu khaw na khuiah a phaep.
12 They have accepted bribes among you to shed blood. You have received usury and superabundance, and in avarice you have oppressed your neighbors. And you have forgotten me, says the Lord God.
A casai thii long sak ham na khuiah kapbaih a loh uh. A puehkan la na loh tih hnaemtaeknah neh na hui te na mueluem dongah kai he nan hnilh. He tah Ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni.
13 Behold, I have clapped my hands over your avarice, which you have worked, and over the blood that has been shed in your midst.
Te dongah na mueluemnah la na saii tih na khui ah na thii a om te ka kut ka paeng pawn ni he.
14 How can your heart endure, or your hands prevail, in the days that I will bring upon you? I, the Lord, have spoken, and I will act.
Na lungbuei om cakhaw na kut a moem uh venim? Te khohnin ah kai loh nang te kan saii ni. Kai BOEIPA loh ka thui he ka saii ni.
15 And I will disperse you among the nations, and I will scatter you among the lands, and I will cause your uncleanness to fade away from you.
Nang te namtom taengah kan taek kan yak vetih diklai ah nang kan haeh ni. Te vaengah nang kah a tihnai te nang lamloh ka boeih sak ni.
16 And I will possess you in the sight of the Gentiles. And you shall know that I am the Lord.”
Nang te namtom mikhmuh ah m'poeih uh vaengah BOEIPA kamah te nan ming bitni,” a ti.
17 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
BOEIPA ol te kai taengla koep ha pawk ol tih,
18 “Son of man, the house of Israel has become like dross to me. All these are brass, and tin, and iron, and lead in the midst of the furnace; they have become like the dross of silver.
“Hlang capa aw, Israel imkhui he a pum la kai taengah aek khuikah aek la poeh uh coeng. Rhohum neh samphae khaw, thicung neh kawnlawk khaw hmai-ulh khui ah cak aek la poeh coeng.
19 Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Since you have all turned into dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you together in the midst of Jerusalem,
Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Nangmih te aek la boeih poeh sak ham ni kai loh nangmih te Jerusalem khui la kan coi tangloeng ne.
20 just as they gather silver, and brass, and tin, and iron, and lead in the midst of the furnace, so that I may kindle in it a fire to melt it. So will I gather you together in my fury and in my wrath, and I will be quieted, and I will melt you down.
Cak neh rhohum, thi neh kawnlawk neh samphae te hmai-ulh khui la hmuh tih hmai dongah tlae hamla coinah om. Ka thintoek ah kan coi tih ka kosi neh kan tloeng vaengah na tlae uh bitni.
21 And I will gather you together, and I will burn you in the fire of my fury, and you will be melted in its midst.
Nangmih te kan calui tih ka thinpom hmai neh nang kang ueng thil vaengah a khui ah na tlae bitni.
22 Just as silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so will you be in its midst. And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have poured out my indignation upon you.”
Hmai-ulh khui kah cak tlae bangla a khui ah na tlae van ni. Te vaengah BOEIPA kamah loh nangmih soah ka kosi ka hawk te na ming ni,” a ti.
23 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
BOEIPA ol kai taengah ha pawk tih,
24 “Son of man, say to her: You are a land unclean and not rained upon, in the day of fury.
“Hlang capa aw, a taengah thui pah. Khohmuen nang te n'caihcil pawt pai tih kosi khohnin ah khotlan tal.
25 There is a conspiracy of prophets in her midst. Like a lion, roaring and seizing the prey, they have devoured souls. They have taken riches and a price. They have multiplied widows in her midst.
A khui ah a tonghma rhoek kah lairhui khaw maeh aka baeh sathueng kah a kawk bangla om. Hinglu neh khohrhang a yoop tih nuhmai kah umponah aka rheth khaw a khui ah a ping sakuh.
26 Her priests have despised my law, and they have defiled my sanctuaries. They have held no distinction between holy and profane. And they have not understood the difference between defiled and clean. And they have averted their eyes from my Sabbaths. And I was profaned in their midst.
A khosoih rhoek loh ka olkhueng a poe tih ka hmuencim a poeih uh. Cimcaihnah neh rhongingnah te paekboe uh pawh. Rhalawt khaw, a cuemcaih khaw ming sak uh pawh. Ka Sabbath te a mik a him thil uh tih amih khui ah kai m'poeih.
27 Her leaders in her midst are like wolves seizing the prey: to shed blood, and to perish souls, and to continually pursue profit with avarice.
A khui kah a mangpa rhoek khaw maeh aka nget uithang bangla thii aka hawk ham neh hinglu aka ngawn ham mueluemnah dongah mueluem uh.
28 And her prophets have covered them without tempering the mortar, seeing emptiness, and divining lies for them, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord God,’ when the Lord has not spoken.
A tonghma rhoek loh amamih ham a rhorhap te a bol uh. Amamih ham a poeyoek la a hmuh uh. Hlang aka bi loh BOEIPA loh a thui pawt khaw ka Boeipa Yahovah kah a thui he laithae ni a ti uh.
29 The people of the land have oppressed with slander and have seized with violence. They have afflicted the needy and the poor, and they have oppressed the new arrival by accusations without judgment.
Khohmuen kah pilnam te hnaemtaeknah neh a hnaemtaek uh tih huencannah neh a reth uh. Mangdaeng neh khodaeng a vuelvaek uh tih yinlai a hnaemtaek uh dongah tiktamnah om pawh.
30 And I sought among them for a man who might set up a hedge, and stand in the gap before me on behalf of the land, so that I might not destroy it; and I found no one.
Vongtung biing tih khohmuen phae pawt ham a yueng la ka mikhmuh kah a puut ah aka pai hlang khaw amih lakli ah ka tlap dae ka hmu pawh.
31 And so I poured out my indignation upon them; in the fire of my wrath I consumed them. I have rendered their own way upon their head, says the Lord God.”
Te dongah ka kosi he amih soah ka hawk vetih ka thinpom hmai neh amih ka khah ni. Amih kah longpuei te amamih lu dongah ka thoeng sak ni. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni,” a ti.
