< Ezekiel 23 >
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk tih,
2 Son of man, there were two women, daughters of one mother.
“Hlang capa aw, manu pakhat kah a canu huta panit om.
3 And they committed fornication in Egypt, in their youth they committed fornication: there were their breasts pressed down, and the teats of their virginity were bruised.
Tedae a camoe lamloh pahoi cukhalh rhoi tih Egypt ah cukhalh rhoi. A rhangsuk te a duep rhoi tih a cuemnah sukbam te hnap a saii.
4 And their names were Oolla the elder, and Ooliba her younger sister: and I took them, and they bore sons and daughters. Now for their names, Samaria is Oolla, and Jerusalem is Ooliba.
A ming ah a ham te Oholah tih a mana te Oholibah ni. Ka taengah a om rhoi hatah canu capa a sak rhoi tih a ming ah Samaria Oholah neh Jerusalem Oholibah la om.
5 And Oolla committed fornication against me, and doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians that came to her,
Oholah he kai hmanah cukhalh tih a lungnah khoyoei Assyria taengah pumben coeng.
6 Who were clothed with blue, princes, and rulers, beautiful youths, all horsemen, mounted upon horses.
Rhalboei rhoek kah pueinak thim neh, ukkung tongpang naidoeh rhoek, amih marhang dongah aka ngol khaw marhang caem boeih ni.
7 And she committed her fornications with those chosen men, all sons of the Assyrians: and she defiled herself with the uncleanness of all them on whom she doted.
Amih taengkah a cukhalhnah te amih Assyria koca kah hlangrhoei boeih taengah a paek uh tih amih kah mueirhol cungkuem neh aka pumben boeih taengah poeih uh.
8 Moreover also she did not forsake her fornications which she had committed in Egypt: for they also lay with her in her youth, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured out their fornication upon her.
Egypt lamkah a cukhalhnah te toeng pawt tih a camoe pueng ah anih te a ih puei uh. Amih taengah ah a cuemnah sukbam te a saii tih a cukhalhnah te amah soah a hawk uh.
9 Therefore have I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the sons of the Assyrians, upon whose lust she doted.
Te dongah anih te a lungnah kut a pumben Assyria ca rhoek kut ah ka paek.
10 They discovered her disgrace, took away her sons and daughters, and slew her with the sword: and they became infamous women, and they executed judgments in her.
Amih loh a capa rhoek neh a canu kah a yah te a poelyoe uh. A khuen uh tih anih te cunghang neh a ngawn uh. Te dongah huta khuiah a ming om tih tholhphu te anih soah a suk uh.
11 And when her sister Ooliba saw this, she was mad with lust more than she: and she carried her fornication beyond the fornication of her sister.
A mana Oholibah loh a hmuh vaengah a cuknah dongah poci ngai tih a cukhalhnah neh a maya kah pumyoihnah lakah nah.
12 Impudently prostituting herself to the children of the Assyrians, the princes, and rulers that came to her, clothed with divers colours, to the horsemen that rode upon horses, and to young men all of great beauty.
Assyria hlang rhoek neh pueinak aka soep ukkung hmaiben, amih boeih tongpang naidoeh, marhang dongah aka ngol marhang caem kah rhalboei te a pumben.
13 And I saw that she was defiled, and that they both took one way.
Te dongah longpuei pakhat ah a boktlap la a poeih uh te ka hmuh.
14 And she increased her fornications: and when she had seen men painted on the wall, the images of the Chaldeans set forth in colours,
Tedae a cukhalhnah te a koei tih hlang a hmuh te pangbueng dongah a vuel. Khalden, Khalden kah mueihlip tah pangcik neh a tarhit pah.
15 And girded with girdles about their reins, and with dyed turbans on their heads, the resemblance of all the captains, the likeness of the sons of Babylon, and of the land of the Chaldeans wherein they were born,
A cinghen ah hailaem phaivaep neh a lu kah lupong khaw cawklawih. Amih boeilu boeih kah a mueimae he a pacaboeina khohmuen kah Khalden Babylon ca phek ni.
16 She doted upon them with the lust of her eyes, and she sent messengers to them into Chaldea.
A mik dongah a mueimae dongah amih te a pumben a pumben tih Khalden kah amih taengah puencawn te a tueih.
17 And when the sons of Babylon were come to her to the bed of love, they defiled her with their fornications, and she was polluted by them, and her soul was glutted with them.
Te vaengah Babylon ca rhoek tah a taengkah a hlo thingkong dongla ha pawk tih anih te amih cukhalhnah neh a poeih uh. Amih loh a poeih daengah a hinglu te amih taeng lamloh a hoeng.
18 And she discovered her fornications, and discovered her disgrace: and my soul was alienated from her, as my soul was alienated from her sister.
A cukhalhnah a poelyoe tih a yah a hliphen. Ka hinglu loh a maya a moeng bangla anih taeng lamloh ka hinglu a hoeng.
19 For she multiplied her fornications, remembering the days of her youth, in which she played the harlot in the land of Egypt.
A camoe tue vaengah Egypt khohmuen ah a cukhalh thoelh ham nim te a cukhalhnah loh ping.
20 And she was mad with lust after lying with them whose flesh is as the flesh of asses: and whose issue as the issue of horses.
A taengcaeh rhoek hnukah pumben. Amih saa tah laak saa tih amih yangtui tah marhang yangtui pawn ni.
21 And thou hast renewed the wickedness of thy youth, when thy breasts were pressed in Egypt, and the papa of thy virginity broken.
Na camoe kah khonuen rhamtat te na hue vaengah na camoe kah rhangsuk neh na sukbam Egypt ah na duep.
22 Therefore, Ooliba, thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will raise up against thee all thy lovers with whom thy soul hath been glutted: and I will gather them together against thee round about.
Te dongah Oholibah aw, ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Kai loh nang taengkah na lungnah te ka haeng coeng ne. Na hinglu lohamih te a moeng dae amih te a kaepvai lamloh nang taengla kang khuen ni.
23 The children of Babylon, and all the Chaldeans, the nobles, and the kings, and princes, all the sons of the Assyrians, beautiful young men, all the captains, and rulers, the princes of princes, and the renowned horsemen.
Babylon ca rhoek neh Pekod Khalden boeih khaw, Shoa neh Koa, amih taengkah Assyria koca boeih, rhalboei naidoeh tongpang neh amih boeilu ukkung boeih khaw marhang dongah aka ngol la boeih a khue uh.
24 And they shall come upon thee well appointed with chariot and wheel, a multitude of people: they shall be armed against thee on every side with breastplate, and buckler, and helmet: and I will set judgment before them, and they shall judge thee by their judgments.
Nang taengah leng neh humhae cungpoel khaw, pilnam hlangping te photlinglen neh photlingca neh lumuek neh ha pawk uh vetih na kaepvai ah a khueh uh ni. Amih mikhmuh ah laitloeknah kang khueh vetih amih kah laitloeknah neh nang lai kan tloek ni.
25 And I will set my jealousy against thee, which they shall execute upon thee with fury: they shall cut off thy nose and thy ears: and what remains shall fall by the sword: they shall take thy sons, and thy daughters, and thy residue shall be devoured by fire.
Ka thatlainah he nang taengah kam paek vetih nang te kosi neh n'saii uh ni. Na hnarhong neh na hna te han hlap uh vetih na hmailong ah cunghang loh a cungku sak ni. Na capa neh na canu a khuen uh vetih na hmailong ah hmai loh a hlawp uh ni.
26 And they shall strip thee of thy garments, and take away the instruments of thy glory.
Nang te na himbai ham pit uh vetih na boeimang hnopai khaw han loh uh ni.
27 And I will put an end to thy wickedness in thee, and thy fornication brought out of the land of Egypt: neither shalt thou lift up thy eyes to them, nor remember Egypt any more.
Te vaengah nang lamkah na khonuen rhamtat neh Egypt khohmuen lamkah na thurha te ka kangkuen sak ni. Te daengah ni amih soah mik na huel pawt vetih Egypt khaw koep na poek pawt eh.
28 For thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I will deliver thee into the hands of them whom thou hatest, into their hands with whom thy soul hath been glutted.
Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Kai loh nang te rhoek kut ah kan tloeng coeng ne. Te rhoek kut te na hmuhuet tih na hinglu loh amih te a moeng dae ta.
29 And they shall deal with thee in hatred, and they shall take away all thy labours, and shall let thee go naked, and full of disgrace, and the disgrace of thy fornication shall be discovered, thy wickedness, and thy fornications.
Hmuhuetnah neh nang te n'saii uh vetih na thaphu boeih han loh uh ni. Nang te pumtling neh yangyal la n'hnoo uh vetih na yah neh pumyoihnah, na khonuen rhamtat neh na cukhalhnah a hliphen ni.
30 They have done these things to thee, because thou hast played the harlot with the nations among which thou wast defiled with their idols.
Namtom hnukah na cukhalh tih amih kah mueirhol neh na poeih uh dongah ni te rhoek te nang soah a saii.
31 Thou hast walked in the way of thy sister, and I will give her cup into thy hand.
Na maya kah longpuei ah na pongpa dongah a boengloeng te nang kut ah kam paek ni.
32 Thus saith the Lord God: Thou shalt drink thy sister’s cup, deep, and wide: thou shalt be had in derision and scorn, which containeth very much.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Na maya boengloeng te ki na ok vaengah nueihcil la om mungkung vetih tamdaengnah te muep eal ni.
33 Thou shalt be filled with drunkenness, and sorrow: with the cup of grief, and sadness, with the cup of thy sister Samaria.
Rhuihahnah neh kothae, na maya Samaria kah imsuep boengloeng neh khopong boengloeng na hah bitni.
34 And thou shalt drink it, and shalt drink it up even to the dregs, and thou shalt devour the fragments thereof, thou shalt rend thy breasts: because I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.
Te te na ok tih na caep phoeiah a paikaek te na cilh vetih na rhangsuk na phuet ni. Ka Boeipa Yahovah kamah loh olphong ka thui coeng.
35 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast forgotten me, and hast cast me off behind thy back, bear thou also thy wickedness, and thy fornications.
Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Kai nan hnilh tih na nam la kai nan rhoe dongah namah loh namah kah khonuen rhamtat neh na cukhalhnah te khaw phuei laeh,” a ti.
36 And the Lord spoke to me, saying: Son of man, dost thou judge Oolla, and Ooliba, and dost thou declare to them their wicked deeds?
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Hlang capa aw, Oholah neh Oholibah te lai na tloek tih amih rhoi kah tueilaehkoi te amih rhoi taengah na thui aya?
37 Because they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands, and they have committed fornication with their idols: moreover also their children, whom they bore to me, they have offered to them to be devoured.
Samphaih uh tih a kut ah thii kap. A mueirhol neh samphaih uh tih kai ham a sak a ca rhoek pataeng amih taengah toihthing bangla a cum uh.
38 Yea, and they have done this to me. They polluted my sanctuary on the same day, and profaned my sabbaths.
Kai taengah a saii rhoi he khaw te khohnin ah ka rhokso ni a poeih rhoi tih ka Sabbath ni a poeih rhoi.
39 And when they sacrificed their children to their idols, and went into my sanctuary the same day to profane it: they did these things even in the midst of my house.
Te vaengah a ca rhoek te a mueirhol ham a ngawn uh tih te khohnin ah ka rhokso te poeih ham a kun thil uh. Te dongah ka im khui ah a saii uh tangkhuet he.
40 They sent for men coming from afar, to whom they had sent a messenger: and behold they came: for whom thou didst wash thyself, and didst paint thy eyes, and wast adorned with women’s ornaments.
Amih taengah puencawn la a tueih tih khohla bangsang lamloh aka pawk hlang ham pataeng khaw a tueih thiluh. Ha pawk uh vaengah tuihlu lamtah na mik duum ne. Te phoeiah cangen te oi ne.
41 Thou sattest on a very fine bed, and a table was decked before thee: whereupon thou didst set my incense, and my ointment.
Khuehtawn thingkong dongah na ngol tih a mikhmuh ah caboei a phaih. Kai kah bo-ul neh ka situi tah amah dongah na khueh van.
42 And there was in her the voice of a multitude rejoicing: and to some that were brought of the multitude of men, and that came from the desert, they put bracelets on their hands, and beautiful crowns on their heads.
A kaepvai hlangping kah thayoeituipan ol neh bitun tongpa khuikah hlang khaw, khosoek lamkah yumii, yumii khaw hang khuen. Te vaengah a kut dongkah khungpak neh a lu dongah boeimang rhuisam a khuem uh.
43 And I said to her that was worn out in her adulteries: Now will this woman still continue in her fornication.
Te vaengah, 'Samphaihnah neh rhuem coeng tih anih ham tah a cukhalhnah dongah cukhalh la cukhalh laeh saeh,’ ka ti.
44 And they went in to her, as to a harlot: so went they in unto Oolla, and Ooliba, wicked women.
Pumyoi nu taengah aka kun bangla anih te a paan uh. Te dongah khonuen rhamtat nu Oholah taeng neh Oholibah taengla pawk uh tangkhuet.
45 They therefore are just men: these shall judge them as adulteresses are judged, and as shedders of blood are judged: because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.
Tedae amih hlang dueng loh amih te samphaih laitloeknah neh thii hawk kah laitloeknah dongah lai a tloek uh ni. Amih te samphaih uh tih a kut ah thii kap.
46 For thus saith the Lord God: Bring a multitude upon them, and deliver them over to tumult and rapine:
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Amih te hlangping paan sak lamtah amih te ngaihuetnah neh maeh la pae.
47 And lee the people stone them with stones, and let them be stabbed with their swords: they shall kill their sons and daughters, and their houses they shall burn with fire.
Amih te hlangping loh lungto neh dae saeh lamtah amih te a cunghang neh hum saeh. A ca tongpa rhoek neh a ca huta rhoek te a ngawn pah vetih a im te hmai neh a hoeh uh ni.
48 And I will take away wickedness out of the land: and all women shall learn, not to do according to the wickedness of them.
Tedae khohmuen kah na khonuen rhamtat te ka paa sak daengah ni huta boeih te thuituen uh vetih nangmih kah khonuen rhamtat bangla a saii uh pawt eh.
49 And they shall render your wickedness upon you, and you shall bear the sins of your idols: and you shall know that I am the Lord God.
Nangmih kah khonuen rhamtat te namamih soah han tloeng vetih na mueirhol tholhnah khaw na phueih ni. Te vaengah ka Boeipa Yahovah kamah he nan ming uh bitni.
