< Ezekiel 9 >
1 Then I heard him shout out with a loud voice, “Start the attack, you who are in charge of punishing Jerusalem! Pick up your weapons!”
Hottelah, khopui kakhenkung hah tami pueng raphoenae senehmaica sin lahoi rek hnai naseh telah kacaipounglah dei e ka thai.
2 I watched as six men approached from the upper gate that faces north. All of them were carrying battle axes. There was another man with them. He was dressed in linen and had a scribe's writing kit at his side. They entered and stood next to the bronze altar.
Khenhaw! atunglae longkha a lathueng lahoi ceinae koehoi tami taruk touh a tho awh. Tami pueng ni senehmaica a sin awh. A lungui e tami buet touh hni loukloukkaang kâkhu e ni, cahangum a sin. Hottelah a kâen awh teh rahum khougroe koe a kangdue awh.
3 The glory of the God of Israel rose from its usual place on the cherubim and went over to the Temple entrance. The Lord called out to the man dressed in linen with the writing kit,
Isarel Cathut bawilennae hah a onae cherubim takhang koe lah a luen teh, hni loukloukkaang kâkhu ni teh cahangum ka sin e hah a kaw.
4 “Go through the whole the city of Jerusalem and place a mark on the foreheads of those who sighing and mourning at all the disgusting sins that are done there.”
BAWIPA ni ahni koevah, Jerusalem khopui lungui cet haw. Khopui hah koung katin. A thung e panuettho e hno a sak e kecu dawk ka khui ka kap e naw tampa dawk noutnae na sak pouh han telah ati.
5 Then I heard him tell the others, “Follow him all through the city and start killing people. Don't be kind or merciful to anyone!
Tami alouknaw koehai khopui thung ahni hnukkâbang nateh, pasainae hoi pahrennae tawn laipalah thet awh.
6 Kill the old men, the young men and girls, the women and children, but do not go anywhere near those who have the mark. Start at my sanctuary.” So they started by killing the elders who were in front of the Temple.
Kacue e thoundoun tangla hoi camonaw hoi napui tongpa koung thet awh. Mitnout katawnnaw hah teh hnai hanh awh. Bawkim hmalah hoi kamtawng awh telah ati. ahnimouh ni hai bawkim hmalah kaawm e kacuenaw hah hmaloe thet awh.
7 Then he told them, “Make the Temple unclean and fill the courtyards with dead bodies. Go ahead and do it!” So they went and started killing all through the city.
Ahni ni ahnimouh koe bawkim teh a kamhnawng sak awh teh, a thei awh e ronaw hoi a thongmanaw hah kingkawi sak nateh, cet awh telah ati e patetlah a tâco awh teh, khopui vah a thei awh.
8 While they were busy killing people, I was left by myself. I fell facedown to the ground and cried out, “Lord God, when you pour out your anger on Jerusalem, are you going to destroy everyone who's left in Israel?”
Hettelah khopui dawk a thei awh lahun navah, kai teh na ceitakhai awh teh, pakhup lah rawp ka tabo. Oe Bawipa Jehovah, Jerusalem lathueng vah, lungkhueknae na awi e hah, kacawirae Isarel taminaw hai na raphoe han namaw telah ka hram.
9 “The sins of the people of Israel and Judah are really terrible,” he replied. “The whole country is full of murderers, and those living in the city are criminals. They're saying, ‘The Lord has given up on our country. He can't see what we're doing.’
Ahni ni kai koevah Isarel hoi Judah e payonnae teh apap poung dawk doeh. Ram teh thipaling hoi a kawi teh khopui teh, kalanhoehe lawkcengnae hoi akawi. BAWIPA ni ram teh a ceitakhai toe. BAWIPA ni banghai hmawt hoeh bo telah ati awh.
10 But I certainly won't be kind to them or have mercy on them. I will make sure they suffer the consequences of what they've done.”
Hatdawkvah, kai ni pasainae ka tawn mahoeh. A yonnae phu hah ahnimae lû lathueng ka pha sak han telah ati.
11 Then the man in linen with the writing kit returned and reported, “I've done what you told me to do.”
Hni loukloukkaang e kâkhu niteh, cahangum ka sin e ni hai, kâ na poe e patetlah be ka sak toe telah ati.
