< Ezekiel 31 >
1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the third [month], in the first [day] of the month, [that] the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Kum hlai khat hla thum dongkah a hnin at dongla a om vaengah BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk tih,
2 Son of man, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude; Whom art thou like in thy greatness?
“Hlang capa aw, Egypt manghai Pharaoh neh a hlangping te thui pah. Na boeilennah dongah aka lutlat te unim?
3 Behold, the Assyrian [was] a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with a shadowing shroud, and of an high stature; and his top was among the thick boughs.
Assyria khaw Lebanon kah lamphai la ke. A hlaeng sakthen tih thingkho khaw a khuk. A songsang neh oek uh tih a thingsoi khaw a bu sola om.
4 The waters made him great, the deep set him up on high with her rivers running round about his plants, and sent out her little rivers unto all the trees of the field.
Tui loh anih a pantai sak tih a laedil lamloh anih a pomsang. A thingling kaepvai ah a tuiva te long tih a tuilong te khohmuen thingkung boeih taengah a thak.
5 Therefore his height was exalted above all the trees of the field, and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long because of the multitude of waters, when he shot forth.
Te dongah a sang khaw khohmuen thingkung boeih lakah sang tih a pae khaw yet. Tui yet te a a pha vaengah tah a thingvak khaw thingvak lakah sen.
6 All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under his shadow dwelt all great nations.
A baek dongah vaan kah vaa boeih loh bu a tuk tih a thingvak dangah khohmuen mulhing boeih thaang. A hlipkhup ah namtom boeiping boeih kho a sak.
7 Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by great waters.
A yung loh tui yet te a paan coeng dongah a boeilennah neh sawtthen tih a hlaeng a vak nen khaw sawtthen coeng.
8 The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chesnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty.
Lamphai te Pathen kah dum ah huep uh thai pawh. Hmaical loh a baek te puet bal pawh. Hlimbok khaw anih kah thingsam bangla a om moenih. Pathen dum kah thing boeih loh a sakthen dongah anih te a puet moenih.
9 I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that [were] in the garden of God, envied him.
Te te a hlaeng boeih neh sakthen la ka saii dongah Pathen dum kah Eden thingkung boeih loh a taengah thatlai uh.
10 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;
Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Thingvak khaw na sang tih a bu so duela a thingsoi a khueh. Te dongah a oeknah la a thinko a pomsang.
11 I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.
Te dongah anih te namtom tutal kut ah ka paek. A halangnah bangla anih te saii rhoe saii ham ham ka haek.
12 And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land; and all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him.
Te kholong kah namtom hanghaeng loh a hum. Tlang ah a yaal tih a hlaeng loh kolrhawk tom ah yalh. Khohmuen sokca boeih ah a thingsam tlawt. Te dongah diklai pilnam boeih khaw a hlipkhup lamloh suntla uh tih a toeng uh.
13 Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:
A cungkunah soah vaan kah vaa boeih loh kho a sak uh tih a thingsam dongah khohmuen mulhing boeih om uh.
14 To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.
Te daengah ni tui dongkah thing boeih loh a thingvak nen khaw a sang pawt vetih a bu so la a thingsoi a khueh uh pawt eh. Te phoeiah tui aka o boeih loh amih kah oeknah dongah amih te a pha pawt eh. Amih boeih dueknah dongah tah tangrhom khuiah aka suntla hlang ca lakli ah khaw diklai laedil la a khueh uh coeng.
15 Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him. (Sheol )
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Saelkhui la a suntlak khohnin ah anih te tuidung neh ka thing tih ka nguekcoi sak. A tuiva te ka kueng pah tih tui yet khaw a sihtaeh uh. Anih kongah Lebanon khaw kopang tih anih kongah khohmuen thingkung boeih huum coeng. (Sheol )
16 I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth. (Sheol )
Anih te tangrhom kah aka suntla rhoek neh saelkhui la ka suntlak vaengah a cungkunah ol neh namtom ka hinghuen sak. Te daengah ni Eden thing then boeih neh Lebanon hnothen tui aka o boeih diklai laedil ah dam a ti eh. (Sheol )
17 They also went down into hell with him unto [them that be] slain with the sword; and [they that were] his arm, [that] dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the heathen. (Sheol )
Amih khaw anih neh namtom lakli kah a hlipkhup ah aka om a bantha neh cunghang dongkah rhok taengah saelkhui la suntla uh. (Sheol )
18 To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with [them that be] slain by the sword. This [is] Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
Thangpomnah neh Eden thingkung kah boeilennah dongah unim na puet van te. Eden thingkung neh pumdul lakli ah diklai laedil la na suntla vetih cunghang dongkah rhok neh na yalh ni. He tah Pharaoh neh a hlangping boeih kah a kawng ni. He he ka Boeipa Yahovah olphong ni,” a ti.
