< Jezekiel 18 >
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Hichun kahenga Pakai thusei achom dang khat ahung lhunge.
2 Son of man, what mean you by this parable among the children of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten unripe grapes, and the children's teeth have been set on edge?
“Ipi dinga hiche thuchih hi Israel gamsung chung thudol nasei kit kit uva, “Minu mipate lengpithei thuh aneuvin ahinlah achateu athei twina jeh chun akamsungu atol lhatai,” tia nasei jiu ham?
3 [As] I live, says the Lord, surely this parable shall no more be spoken in Israel.
Tahbeh mongin keima kahing jinge tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije. Israel lah a hiche hi nanungsei kit louhel diu ahitai.
4 For all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son, they are mine: the soul that sins, it shall die.
Ijeh inem itile mijouse hi keiman athu katan cheh ding ahin, mipate hihen achateu hijongleu agoma kibang cheh ahiuve. Hiche hi kachonna dan ahi, ‘Koi hile chonset bolla chu thitei ding ahi.’
5 But the man who shall be just, who executes judgment and righteousness,
Tekah nan, mipa khat chu michonpha ahi, adih chetna atoh a chuleh adih a ahile,
6 who shall not eat upon the mountains, and shall not at all lift up his eyes to the devices of the house of Israel, and shall not defile his neighbor's wife, and shall not draw near to her that is removed,
Amapa chun molsang chunga Israel milim manga an aneh khah hih hella ahiloule ahouva apna louva ahileh, amapa chun jonthanhoi abolda a, ahilouleh numei khat chu athinei pet a aluppi da a,
7 and shall not oppress any man, [but] shall return the pledge of the debtor, and shall be guilty of no plunder, shall give his bread to the hungry, and clothe the naked;
Amapa chu sumbat hom mikhoto them ahia, mivaichan bat mana athiltun u akoiden louva ahileh, mivaicha ho neile gou achom peh hih leh, hiche sanga chu agilkel ho ann aneh sah a, saguoh keuva umho ponsil apeh a,
8 and shall not lend his money upon usury, and shall not receive usurious increase, and shall turn back his hand from injustice, shall execute righteous judgment between a man and his neighbor,
Sum akan lalouva sumbat ahomma, thudih louva thu kitanna konna akikangse a, lungthengsel ahia, chule midang thutanna agamlat a,
9 and has walked in my commandments and kept mine ordinances, to do them; he is righteous, he shall surely live, says the Lord.
Chuleh tahsan umtah kathupeh le kachondan ho ajuija ahileh, mikhat touvin hiche thilho hi adih a abolla ahile ama chu hing teitei ding ahi” tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije.
10 And if he beget a mischievous son, shedding blood and committing sins,
Ahin hitobang mipa khat chun chapa khat nei hen lang, amapa chu michom tolthat hihen lang, chule thilpha bol ding chu nom tahih henlang hileh,
11 who has not walked in the way of his righteous father, but has even eaten upon the mountains, and has defiled his neighbor's wife,
Chule hiche chapa chun apan abol khah louhel thilphalou jouse bol tahen lang, molsang chung dunga milim doiho chu gahou hen jonthanhoi bol taleh,
12 and has oppressed the poor and needy, and has committed robbery, and not restored a pledge, and has set his eyes upon idols, has wrought iniquities,
Mivaicha leh panpi ding neilou ho chu a engse sea abol'a, asumbat neipa a konna gucha jia, athilbat manna kitungho kilelhat sah ding nom louva, milim doiho hou kidah dah um chonset bolna a kipumpeh,
13 has lent upon usury, and taken usurious increase; he shall by no means live: he has wrought all these iniquities; he shall surely die; his blood shall be upon him.
Chule sum homma aval vala akan kilah, hitobanga chonsepa chu hing thing ding hinam? Ahipoi amachu thitei tei ding chule themmona dimsetna akilah ding ahi.
14 And if he beget a son, and [the son] see all his father's sins which he has wrought, and fear, and not do according to them,
Ahinlah hitobang chonsetna dim mipa chun chapa khat nei henlang hiche achapa chun apa gitlouna chengse chu amudoh tengle hitobang hinkho chu mang talou dingin kigeltha taleh,
15 and [if he] has not eaten on the mountains, and has not set his eyes on the devices of the house of Israel, and has not defiled his neighbor's wife,
Hiche chapa chu molsang chung dunga milim doi ho chu hou ding nom tahih hen lang chuleh jonthanhoi jin kipeh lut da jeng taleh,
16 and has not oppressed a man, and has not retained the pledge, nor committed robbery, has given his bread to the hungry, and has clothed the naked,
Mivaicha ho adihlouvin bolda henlang, ahinlah hicheho sang chun mi sumbat a lahna a kitah hen lang amaho chu chommang da hen. Aman agilkel ho ann nehsah hen lang chule angaiho ponsil peleh,
17 and has turned back his hand from unrighteousness, has not received interest or usurious increase, has wrought righteousness, and walked in mine ordinances; he shall not die for the iniquities of his father, he shall surely live.
Mivachaho kithopi hen, akan dingin sum hom dahen. Chuleh kachondan ho leh kathupeh ho jui bukim soh hen, hitobang mi chu apa chonset jeh a thilou hel ding, amavang hing teitei ding ahi.
18 But if his father grievously afflict, or plunder, he has wrought enmity in the midst of my people, and shall die in his iniquity.
Ahinlah apa vang chu achonsetna tamtah ho jeh a, akhanset jeh a, miho achom jeh a, chule mitmu a kicheh tah a thildihlou abolho jeh a chu thiding ahi.
19 But you will say, Why has not the son borne the iniquity of the father? Because the son has wrought judgment and mercy, has kept all my statues, and done them, he shall surely live.
Iti danna apa chonset man achapan apeh lou ham ipi jeh ham natiuve. Ahipoi chapang chun thilpha abolla adih a achonna chuleh kathupehho ajuija ahile hing teitei ding ahi.
20 But the soul that sins shall die: and the son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, nor shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the iniquity of the transgressor shall be upon him.
Ahinkho a chonsepa vang chu thiding ahi. Apa chonset jeh a achapa ki engbol lou ding, chule achapa chonset jeh a apa ki engbol lou ding ahi. Michonpha ho chu achonphatna jal'a tohphatman asan uva, chuleh migilou techu agitlou nau jal'a, ki engbol dingu ahi.
21 And if the transgressor turn away from all his iniquities which he has committed, and keep all my commandments, and do justice and mercy, he shall surely live, and shall by no means die.
Ahinlah ijem tin migilou techun achonset nau jousea kon in hung kihei mang uhenlang chuleh kathupeh ho hin jui pan uhen, chule thilpha leh adih chu hin bol uhenlang hileh hing teitei dingu ahin, thilou hel dingu ahi.
22 None of his trespasses which he has committed shall be remembers: in his righteousness which he has done he shall live.
Achesa phat a achonset nau jouse kisuhmil peh a chuleh chonphat abol hou jouse jeh a hing diu ahi.
23 Shall I at all desire death of the sinner, says the Lord, as I [desire] that he should turn from [his] evil way, and live?
Migilouho thi chu kamu nomma nangaitou ham tin thaneitah Pakai chun aseije. Migilou chu agitlouna a konna akihei manga ahin ding chu kadei louva nabolu ham?
24 But when the righteous man turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, according to all the transgressions which the transgressor has wrought, none of his righteousness which he has wrought shall be at all remembered: in his trespass wherein he has trespassed, and in his sins wherein he has sinned, in them shall he die.
Iti hen lang hijongle michonpha khat tou chu achonphatna lampia konna akihei manga chonset abolpat tah a, midang chonset banga achonset tah a ahileh, amaho chu ahin diu kiphal peh ding ham. Ahipoi hithei louhel ding ahibouve. Achonphat nahou jouse chu kisuhmil peh a chule achonset nauva thiden diu ahi.
25 Yet you have said, The way of the Lord is not straight. Hear now, all the house of Israel; will not my way be straight? Is your way straight?
Ahijeng vang'in Pakaiyin thilpha chu abollou ham tin nasei jiuve. O Israel mipite! Thilpha bollou chu kei kahi ham? Ahiloule nangho nahiu ham?
26 When the righteous turns away from his righteousness and commits a trespass, and dies in the trespass he has committed, he shall [even] die in it.
Michonpha ho chu achonphat nauva konna akihei mang uva chonset thil abolpat tah uva ahile hiche a chu thi diu ahi. Henge achonset nau jeh a chu thidiu ahi.
27 And when the wicked man turns away from his wickedness that he has committed, and shall do judgment and justice, he has kept his soul,
Chuleh migilou ho chun agitlou nauva konna ahung kihei doh uva, dan ajui uva, chuleh thilpha leh adih abol uva ahileh, amaho chun ahinkhou chu akihuhdoh diu ahi.
28 and has turned away from all his ungodliness which he has committed: he shall surely live, he shall not die.
Achonset nauva konna kiheidoh dinga akigel lhah nau alunggel ho jeh a amaho chu hing diu ahi. Hitobang mi chu thilou ding ahi.
29 Yet the house of Israel say, The way of the Lord is not right. Is not my way right, O house of Israel? is not your way wrong?
Ahijeng vang'in Israel mipi ten hitin aseije uve. Pakaiyin thilpha abolpoi, “O Israel mipite, thilpha bollou chu nangho nahiuvin kei kahipoi.”
30 I will judge you, O house of Israel, says the Lord, each one according to his way: be converted, and turn from all your ungodliness, and it shall not become to you the punishment of iniquity.
Hiche jeh a chu O Israel mipite, nachon nau dungjui cheh uva khat cheh a nachung thu katan ding ahi tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije. Nalung heijun lang chule nachonset nauva kon in keihei mangun kisuhmang sah hih un.
31 Cast away from yourselves all your ungodliness wherein you have sinned against me; and make to yourselves a new heart and a new spirit: for why should you die, O house of Israel?
Doumah mah nabol chengseu chu nanung languvah koijun, lungthah sem uvin lang lhagao thah neijun. Ipijeh a nathi jeng diu ham O Israel mite.
32 For I desire not the death of him that dies, says the Lord.
Kinung heijun lang hingun, nathi diu kadeipoi tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije.
