Ezekiel 18
1 The worde of the Lord came vnto me againe, saying,
BOEIPA ol he kai taengla ha pawk tih,
2 What meane ye that ye speake this prouerbe, concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers haue eaten sowre grapes, and the childrens teeth are set on edge?
“Nangmih te mebang nim? Israel khohmuen ham tah he thuidoeknah na thuidoek uh. ‘Pa rhoek loh thaihkang a caak uh tih, ca rhoek kah a no yaa,’ na ti uh.
3 As I liue, sayth the Lord God, ye shall vse this prouerbe no more in Israel.
Kai tah hingnah ni tite, ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni. He thuidoeknah neh na thuidoek he nangmih Israel khuiah om voel mahpawh.
4 Beholde, all soules are mine, both the soule of the father, and also the soule of the sonne are mine: the soule that sinneth, it shall die.
Hinglu boeih te kamah taengkah ni he. A napa kah hinglu khaw ka taengah tah capa kah hinglu bangla om boeiloeih. Aka tholh tah amah hinglu ni a duek eh.
5 But if a man be iust, and doe that which is lawfull, and right,
Hlang he a dueng la a om atah tiktamnah neh duengnah ni a saii.
6 And hath not eaten vpon the mountaines, neither hath lift vp his eyes to the idoles of the house of Israel, neither hath defiled his neighbours wife, neither hath lyen with a menstruous woman,
Tlang ah ca pawt tih Israel imkhui kah mueirhol te a mik huel thil pawh. A hui yuu te poeih pawt tih pumom nu taengah mop pawh.
7 Neither hath oppressed any, but hath restored the pledge to his dettour: he that hath spoyled none by violence, but hath giuen his bread to the hungry, and hath couered the naked with a garment,
Hlang te laibakung kah hnohol vuelvaek pawt tih a huenkoe te a mael tih a rhawth pawt atah, a buh te bungpong taengah a paek tih pumtling te himbai a khuk atah,
8 And hath not giuen foorth vpon vsurie, neither hath taken any increase, but hath withdrawen his hand from iniquitie, and hath executed true iudgement betweene man and man,
A casai la pae pawt tih dumlai lamloh a puehkan la a loh pawt atah. A kut a poem tih hlang neh hlang laklo ah oltak la tiktamnah a saii atah,
9 And hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept my iudgements to deale truely, he is iust, he shall surely liue, sayth the Lord God.
Ka khosing dongah pongpa tih ka laitloeknah he vai ham a dueng la oltak a ngaithuen atah hing rhoe hing ni. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni.
10 If he beget a sonne, that is a thiefe, or a sheader of blood, if he do any one of these things,
Thii aka hawk dingca loh ca a sak mai tih anunae te khuikah pakhat lamloh a saii khaming.
11 Though he doe not all these things, but either hath eaten vpon the mountaines, or defiled his neighbours wife,
Te boeih te anih loh saii pawt cakhaw tlang ah a caak tih a hui yuu te a poeih atah,
12 Or hath oppressed the poore and needy, or hath spoyled by violence, or hath not restored the pledge, or hath lift vp his eyes vnto the idoles, or hath committed abomination,
A huenkoe neh mangdaeng khodaeng a vuelvaek tih hnohol a rhawth pah khaw mael pawh. A mik te mueirhol taengla a huel tih tueilaehkoi te a saii.
13 Or hath giuen forth vpon vsurie, or hath taken increase, shall he liue? he shall not liue: seeing he hath done all these abominations, he shall die the death, and his blood shall be vpon him.
A casai la a paek tih a puehkan a loh dongah hing rhoe hing mahpawh. Tueilaehkoi cungkuem he a saii dongah duek rhoe duek vetih a thii te amah soah tla ni.
14 But if he beget a sonne, that seeth all his fathers sinnes, which he hath done, and feareth, neither doeth such like,
Tedae a ca sak loh a napa kah tholhnah cungkuem a saii te a hmuh ne. A hmuh dae amih bangla a saii moenih.
15 That hath not eaten vpon the mountaines, neither hath lift vp his eyes to the idols of ye house of Israel, nor hath defiled his neighbours wife,
Tlang ah ca pawt tih Israel im kah mueirhol te a mik huel thil pawh, a hui yuu te poeih pah pawh.
16 Neither hath oppressed any, nor hath withholden the pledge, neither hath spoyled by violence, but hath giuen his bread to the hungry, and hath couered the naked with a garment,
Hlang te vuelvaek pawt tih hnohol te laikoi sak pawh, a huenkoe neh hlang rheth pawh. A buh te bungpong taengla a paek tih pumtling te himbai a khuk.
17 Neither hath withdrawen his hand from the afflicted, nor receiued vsurie nor increase, but hath executed my iudgements, and hath walked in my statutes, he shall not die in the iniquitie of his father, but he shall surely liue.
Mangdaeng taengah a kut a poem tih a casai neh a puehkan la lo pawh. Ka laitloeknah te a vai tih ka khosing dongah pongpa. Anih tah a napa kah thaesainah dongah te duek pawt vetih hing rhoe hing ni.
18 His father, because he cruelly oppressed and spoyled his brother by violence, and hath not done good among his people, loe, euen he dyeth in his iniquitie.
A napa khaw hnaemtaeknah neh a hnaemtaek tih a manuca kah kutkho a rhawth, a pilnam lakli ah, a then a saii pawt te amah kah thaesainah dongah ni a duek van eh ne.
19 Yet say ye, Wherefore shall not the sonne beare the iniquitie of the father? because ye sonne hath executed iudgement and iustice, and hath kept all my statutes, and done them, he shall surely liue,
Tedae, “Balae tih pa kah thaesainah te capa loh a phueih pawh,” na ti uh. Ca khaw tiktamnah neh duengnah a saii phoeiah ka khosing boeih te a ngaithuen tih a vai atah hing rhoe hing ni.
20 The same soule that sinneth, shall die: the sonne shall not beare the iniquitie of the father, neither shall the father beare the iniquitie of the sonne, but the righteousnes of the righteous shall be vpon him, and the wickednesse of the wicked shall be vpon him selfe.
Amah tholh ah ni a hinglu a duek eh. Pa kah thaesainah te capa loh phuei pawt vetih capa kah thaesainah te pa loh phuei mahpawh. Aka dueng tah a taengah duengnah om vetih halang, halang tah a taengah halangnah ni a om eh.
21 But if the wicked will returne from all his sinnes that he hath committed, and keepe all my statutes, and doe that which is lawfull and right, he shall surely liue, and shall not die.
Halang khaw tholhnah a saii dae a tholhnah cungkuem lamloh mael tih ka khosing te boeih a vai, tiktamnah neh duengnah te a saii atah hing rhoe hing vetih duek mahpawh.
22 All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned vnto him, but in his righteousnes that he hath done, he shall liue.
A boekoeknah cungkuem a saii te amih soah poek uh mahpawh. Amah kah duengnah a saii dongah hing ni.
23 Haue I any desire that the wicked should die, sayth the Lord God? or shall he not liue, if he returne from his wayes?
Halang kah dueknah te ka ngaih khaw ka ngaih aya? He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni. A longpuei lamloh a mael lalah khaw hing aya?
24 But if the righteous turne away from his righteousnes, and commit iniquitie, and doe according to all the abominations, that the wicked man doeth, shall he liue? all his righteousnes that he hath done, shall not be mentioned: but in his transgression that he hath committed, and in his sinne that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.
Tedae aka dueng khaw a duengnah lamloh mael tih halang loh tueilaehkoi boeih a saii bangla dumlai saii koinih boekoeknah la boe a koek dongah a hing vaengah a duengnah neh duengnah cungkuem a saii khaw a saii la poek uh mahpawh. Amah kah tholhnah a saii dongah amah ni a duek eh.
25 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equall: heare now, O house of Israel. Is not my way equall? or are not your wayes vnequall?
Te pataeng, ‘BOEIPA kah longpuei he tiktam pawh,’ na ti. Israel imkhui hnatun laeh na ti uh. Ka longpuei he a tiktam moenih a? A tiktam pawt te nangmih kah longpuei moenih a?
26 For when a righteous man turneth away from his righteousnes, and committeth iniquitie, he shall euen die for the same, he shall euen die for his iniquitie, that he hath done.
Aka dueng te a duengnah lamloh mael tih dumlai saii koinih te rhoek dongah amah ni aka duek eh. Amah kah dumlai a saii dongah amah duek ni.
27 Againe when the wicked turneth away from his wickednes that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawfull and right, he shall saue his soule aliue.
Tedae halang khaw a halangnah a saii lamloh mael tih tiktamnah neh duengnah saii koinih a hinglu te hing ni.
28 Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his transgressions that hee hath committed, he shall surely liue and shall not die.
A hmuh tih a boekoeknah cungkuem a saii lamloh a mael la a mael atah hing rhoe hing vetih duek mahpawh.
29 Yet saith ye house of Israel, The way of the Lord is not equall. O house of Israel, are not my wayes equall? or are not your wayes vnequall?
Tedae Israel imkhui loh, “Ka Boeipa kah longpuei tiktam pawh,” a ti. Israel imkhui a tiktam pawt te kai longpuei e? Aka tiktam pawt te nangmih kah longpuei moenih a?
30 Therefore I will iudge you, O house of Israel, euery one according to his wayes, sayth the Lord God: returne therefore and cause others to turne away from all your transgressions: so iniquitie shall not be your destruction.
Te dongah hlang he a longpuei banglam ni Israel imkhui nangmih te lai kan tloek eh. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah olphong ni. Yut uh lamtah na boekoek cungkuem lamloh mael uh laeh. Te daengah ni nangmih ham thaesainah hmuitoel la a om pawt eh.
31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye haue transgressed, and make you a newe heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Nangmih kah boekoeknah cungkuem neh boe na koek uh te nangmih taeng lamloh voei uh. Lungbuei thai neh mueihla thai mah namamih ham saii uh. Balae tih Israel imkhui loh na duek uh eh?
32 For I desire not the death of him that dyeth, sayth the Lord God: cause therefore one another to returne, and liue ye.
Dueknah neh a duek te ka ngaih moenih. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni. Te dongah yut uh lamtah hing uh laeh,” a ti.
