< Ezekiel 19 >

1 And thou, take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
Hothloilah, Isarel khobawinaw hanlah kalung na sak pouh hane teh,
2 and say, What was thy mother? A lioness: she lay down among lions, she nourished her whelps in the midst of the young lions.
Na manu teh api nama, Sendek napui doeh, a canaw kawkhik laihoi Sendekcanaw koe a tabo.
3 And she brought up one of her whelps; it became a young lion, and he learned to catch the prey; he devoured men.
A kawkhik e a ca buet touh teh sendektan lah ao teh, kahrawngum e moithangnaw kei hanelah na taminaw hai ouk a kei.
4 And the nations heard of him; he was taken in their pit, and they brought him with nose-rings into the land of Egypt.
Miphunnaw ni a thai awh teh, kadungpoung e tangkom dawk a pabo awh, sum hoi a taren awh teh, Izip ram dawk a phakhai.
5 And when she saw that she had waited [and] her hope was lost, she took another of her whelps, [and] made him a young lion.
A manu ni lungpout laipalah ayawmyin lah a ring, bout a sak, sendektanca lah o nahanlah,
6 And he went up and down among the lions; he became a young lion, and learned to catch the prey; he devoured men.
Sendektancanaw koe pou ka paitun e sendektanca lah ao dawkvah, moi kei nahanelah a kamtu teh na taminaw hah a kei.
7 And he knew their [desolate] palaces, and he laid waste their cities, so that the land was desolate, and all it contained, by the noise of his roaring.
Ahnimae moi kamenaw hah a panue teh, ahnimae khopuinaw be a raphoe pouh, a huknae pawlawk dawk ram hoi tami pueng teh kingdi awh.
8 Then the nations set against him on every side from the provinces, and spread their net over him; he was taken in their pit.
Miphunnaw a kamkhueng awh teh, ram pueng ni a tuk awh. Tamlawk rui hoi a kalup awh. Kadungpoung e tangkom dawkvah, a pabo awh.
9 And they put him in a cage with nose-rings, and brought him to the king of Babylon; they brought him into strongholds, that his voice should no more be heard upon the mountains of Israel.
Sumrui hoi a pâkhi awh teh, Babilon siangpahrang koe a thokhai awh. Ahnie a pawlawk teh, Isarel mon dawk bout a cai hoeh nahan, paungnae im dawk a hruek awh.
10 Thy mother was as a vine, in thy rest, planted by the waters: it was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.
Nange na manu teh nang hoi na kâvan teh tui teng ung e misurkung patetlah ao. Tui apap dawkvah abu a rung teh a paw moikapap a paw.
11 And it had strong rods for sceptres of them that bear rule, and its stature was exalted between the thick boughs; and it was conspicuous by its height with the multitude of its branches.
Kaukkungnaw hane sonron hanelah ka khaw e a kangnaw lah a coung. Abu a rung teh a kang a rasang teh a kamnue.
12 But it was plucked up in fury, it was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up its fruit; its strong rods were broken and withered; the fire consumed them.
Hatei, lungkhueknae bahu hoi a khoe teh, talai dawk ka rawm e lah ao toe. Kanîtholae kahlî ni a palek teh a paw kung a ke sak. Hmaipalai hoi kak sak e lah ao toe.
13 And now it is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty ground:
Atu teh, tui a ohoehnae ka ke e kahrawngum vah ung e lah ao toe.
14 and a fire is gone out of a rod of its branches, [which] hath devoured its fruit; so that it hath no strong rod to be a sceptre for ruling. This is a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation.
A kang dawk hoi hmaipalai a tâco teh, koung a kuet, a pawnaw pueng be a ca toe. A kang awm hoeh toe. Kaukkungnaw e sonron hanelah, hetheh kalungla doeh, khuinae koe hno hane doeh.
