Ezekiel 14
1 Then came certain of the elders of Israel unto me, and sat before me.
Israel patong rhoek khui lamkah hlang rhoek te kai taengla ha pawk uh tih ka mikhmuh ah ngol uh.
2 And the word of Yhwh came unto me, saying,
Te vaengah BOEIPA ol te kai taengah ha pawk tih,
3 Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumblingblock of their iniquity before their face: should I be enquired of at all by them?
“Hlang capa aw, he kah hlang rhoek he a lungbuei ah a mueirhol a khueh uh. Amamih mikhmuh ah a thaesainah hmuitoel a khueh uh. A toem ham khaw amih te ka toem aya?
4 Therefore speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Every man of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet; I Yhwh will answer him that cometh according to the multitude of his idols;
Te dongah amih te voek lamtah amamih te thui pah. Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Hlang khaw Israel im kah hlang tah a lungbuei ah a mueirhol a khueh tih a mikhmuh ah amah kathaesainah hmuitoel a khueh phoeiah tonghma taengla pawk. A mueirhol khuehtawn neh aka pawk te BOEIPA kamah loh ka doo ni.
5 That I may take the house of Israel in their own heart, because they are all estranged from me through their idols.
Te dongah Israel imkhui te amamih kah lungbuei bangla tuuk ham om. Amih boeih te amamih kah mueirhol dongah ni kai taeng lamloh a kholong uh.
6 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Repent, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations.
Te dongah Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he Israel imkhui taengah thui pah. Yut uh lamtah na mueirhol taeng lamloh mael uh. Nangmih kah tueilaehkoi cungkuem taeng lamloh na maelhmai te mangthuung laeh.
7 For every one of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourneth in Israel, which separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to a prophet to enquire of him concerning me; I Yhwh will answer him by myself:
Te dongah hlang he Israel imkhui kah hlang khaw, Israel khuikah aka bakuep yinlai khaw kai te n'hai. Te dongah a lungbuei ah a mueirhol a khueh tih a mikhmuh ah amah kathaesainah hmuitoel a khueh. Tedae anih lamloh kai he toem ham tonghma taengla pawk kai BOEIPA kamah loh anih te ka doo ni.
8 And I will set my face against that man, and will make him a sign and a proverb, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I am Yhwh.
Tekah hlang te ka maelhmai ka khueh thil vetih anih te miknoek neh thuidoeknah la ka khueh ni. Ka pilnam lakli lamloh anih ka saii vaengah BOEIPA kamah te nan ming uh bitni.
9 And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a thing, I Yhwh have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
Tedae tonghma te a hloih tih ol thui cakhaw te tonghma te BOEIPA kamah loh ka hloih coeng. Te dongah anih te ka kut ka thueng thil vetih ka pilnam Israel khui lamloh anih te ka mitmoeng sak ni.
10 And they shall bear the punishment of their iniquity: the punishment of the prophet shall be even as the punishment of him that seeketh unto him;
Amamih kathaesainah te a phueih uh vetithaesainah a toem uh vanbangla tonghma kathaesainah khaw ana om saeh.
11 That the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, neither be polluted any more with all their transgressions; but that they may be my people, and I may be their God, saith the Lord Yhwh.
Te daengah ni Israel imkhui te kai hnuk lamloh khohmang voel pawt vetih a boekoek cungkuem neh koep a poeih uh pawt eh. Kamah taengah pilnam la om uh vetih kai khaw amih taengah Pathen la ka om ni. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni,” a ti.
12 The word of Yhwh came again to me, saying,
BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk tih,
13 Son of man, when the land sinneth against me by trespassing grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and will break the staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will cut off man and beast from it:
“Hlang capa aw khohmuen loh kai taengah boekoeknah la boekoek ham a tholh atah ka kut a taengah ka thueng vetih a thahuelnah buh te ka pat sak ni. A soah khokha ka tueih pah vetih a hlang neh rhamsa te ka saii ni.
14 Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord Yhwh.
A khui ah hlang pathum, Noah, Daniel neh Job om koinih amih kah duengnah loh te rhoek kah a hinglu a huul pah khaming. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni.
15 If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because of the beasts:
Khohmuen longah boethae mulhing ka paan sak vetih cakol la om ni. Te vaengah khopong la poeh vetih mulhing mikhmuh ah aka pongpa om mahpawh.
16 Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord Yhwh, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate.
Kai tah hingnah ni tite ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni. A khui kah hlang pathum long he a capa khaw huul thai pawt vetih a canu khaw huul thai mahpawh. Amih te amamih bueng ngawn a huul uh khaming dae a, khohmuen tah khopong la om ni.
17 Or if I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through the land; so that I cut off man and beast from it:
Khohmuen te cunghang ka muk thil coeng. Khohmuen te cunghang loh a paan ham ka thui dongah a hlang neh rhamsa te ka saii ni.
18 Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord Yhwh, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only shall be delivered themselves.
Kai tah hingnah tite ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni. A khui kah hlang pathum long he a capa khaw a canu a huul thai pawt atah amih loh amamih bueng khaw huul uh thae khaming.
19 Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast:
Te cakhaw khohmuen te duektahaw ka tueih thil vetih ka kosi a soah ka hawk ni. A hlang neh rhamsa saii ham thii long ni.
20 Though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live, saith the Lord Yhwh, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall but deliver their own souls by their righteousness.
Kai tah hingnah ni tite Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni. A khui kah Noah, Daneil neh Job long pataeng a canu a capa te a huul thai moenih. Amamih kah duengnah nen ni a hinglu a huul.
21 For thus saith the Lord Yhwh; How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beast, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast?
Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Ka taengkah tholhphu pali ngawn tah boethae cunghang neh khokha khaw, boethae mulhing neh duektahaw la a hlang neh rhamsa rhaih ham Jerusalem ah ka tueih.
22 Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that shall be brought forth, both sons and daughters: behold, they shall come forth unto you, and ye shall see their way and their doings: and ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it.
Tedae rhalyong la a khuen capa canu te a khuiah sueng ni. Amih khaw nangmih taengla ha thoeng coeng te. Amih khosing neh a khoboe rhamlang na hmuh uh coeng. Te dongah Jerusalem soah ka thoeng sak yoethae neh a soah a cungkuem la ka thoeng sak te na ko damti uh bitni.
23 And they shall comfort you, when ye see their ways and their doings: and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, saith the Lord Yhwh.
Amih kah khosing neh a khoboe rhamlang na hmuh vaengah damti uh bitni. Te vaengah a khuiah a cungkuem ka saii te lunglilungla la ka saii uh pawt khaw na ming uh ni. He tah Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni,” a ti.
