Ezekiel 23
1 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
BAWIPA e lawk kai koe bout a pha teh,
2 Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother;
tami capa napui e ca roi kahni touh
3 And they played the harlot in Egypt; in their youth they played the harlot: there were their breasts pressed, and there they suffered their virgin bosoms to be touched.
Izip ram vah a kâyo roi teh, a nawca hoi a kâyo roi toe, hatdawkvah a sanu hah a pânam pouh awh teh, a tanglanae banglahai noutna awh hoeh.
4 And their names were Aholah the elder, and Aholibah her sister; but they became mine, and they bore sons and daughters: and their names are, Samaria is Aholah, and Jerusalem, Aholibah.
Kacuehnawn e min teh Oholah, a nawngha teh Oholibah doeh. Kaie lah ao awh teh napui tongpa hah a khe awh. A min lah Oholah teh Samaria tami doeh, Oholibah teh Jerusalem doeh.
5 And Aholah played the harlot while she was mine; and she longed for her lovers, for the Assyrians that were near [her],
Oholah teh kaie lah ao hnukkhu a kâyo teh, a lungpataw e a imri Assiria teh a noe.
6 Clothed [as they were] in blue, governors, and rulers, attractive youths all of them, horsemen riding upon horses.
Hnipaling hoi kamthoup e ukkung hoi lawkcengkungnaw, a pahren e thoundounnaw, Marangransanaw marangnaw dawk kâcuinaw hah,
7 Thus she played the harlot with them, all of them the chosen ones of the sons of Asshur: and with all for whom she longed, —with all their idols did she defile herself.
hete Assiria thoundoun kahawi pueng koevah, a kâyo teh a mit hoi a nôe e meikaphawk koevah a kâkhinsak.
8 But also her lewdness from Egypt forsook she not; for they had lain with her in her youth, and they had touched her virgin bosom, and had lavished their lewd caresses on her.
A nawca hoi a sanu a pânam pou teh a ikhai awh dawkvah, Izip lahoi a kâyo e hah kâhat hoeh. Ahnimouh ni hai a cuk awh nahanelah, a lathueng vah lungkhuek ati nahanelah a hno awh.
9 Therefore did I give her up into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the sons of Asshur, after whom she longed.
A pahren teh mit ni a nôe e, Assiria kut roeroe dawkvah ka man sak.
10 These were they that laid open her nakedness; her sons and her daughters did they take away, and her they slew with the sword: and she became infamous among women, when they inflicted the decreed punishments on her.
Hetnaw ni caici lah ao nahan angki a rading pouh, a canu hoi a capanaw a la pouh. Ama haiyah tahloi hoi a thei awh teh, napuinaw thung dawk kamthang poung e lah ao. A lathueng vah lawkceng e patetlah a kuep sak.
11 And when her sister Aholibah saw this, she became more corrupt in her longing than she, and in her lewd acts more than her sister's lewdness.
A nawngha Oholibah ni hetheh a hmu. Hateiteh, a hmau hlak hai noenae hoe a len, a kâyonae hai a hmau hlak vah hoe a nut.
12 For the sons of Asshur did she long, the governors and rulers that were near, clothed as they were most gorgeously, horsemen riding upon horses, attractive youths all of them.
Assirianaw e imri ram kaukkungnaw hoi, lawkcengkung ngai han kaawm e thoundoun, Marangransanaw marang van kâcuinaw, kahawipoung lah kamthoup e hah a mit hoi a noe.
13 Then saw I that she was defiled, that they followed both one way.
A khin e hah ka hmu, kahni touh hoi lamthung rei kâvan e a dawn awh.
14 But she added still more to her acts of lewdness; for when she saw men engraved upon the wall, the images of the Chaldeans portrayed with color,
Hateiteh, a kâyonae hoe a nut sak teh, tongpa meikaphawk rapan dawk kamnuek e Khaldeannaw e meilam, paling e lahoi kamthoup e,
15 Bound with girdles on their loins, with hanging down colored turbans on their heads, in appearance like commanders, all of them, in the likeness of the sons of Babylon of the Chaldeans, the land of their birth:
a keng dawk taisawm kâyeng e, a lû dawk a pei lupawk kâmuk e, siangpahrang e mei koung ka lat e, Khaldean ram a tâconae ram, Babilonnaw patetlah a hmu.
16 Then did she long for them as soon as she saw them with her eyes, and she sent messengers unto them to Chaldea.
Ahnimouh a hmu awh tahma tang a ngai awh teh, ahnimouh koe Khaldean totouh patounenaw a patoun.
17 And the sons of Babylon came to her unto the couch of love, and they defiled her with their lewd caresses; and [yet] when she had been defiled with them, she tore her soul away from them.
Babilonnaw hah ahni koevah napui tongpa yonnae ikhun dawk a tho awh teh, a cuknae lahoi a khin sak awh teh, amahoima panuettho e lah be a kangcoung sak awh teh a khin awh.
18 And when she had laid open her lewdness, and had uncovered her nakedness: then my soul tore itself away from her, as my soul had torn itself away from her sister.
Hottelah hoi a kâyonae a kamnue sak teh, caici lah onae hah a kamnue sak, a hmau ka panuet e patetlah a nawngha hai ka panuet van.
19 Yet she multiplied her deeds of lewdness, in calling to remembrance the days of her youth, when she had played the harlot in the land of Egypt.
Hatei, a naw lahunnae Izip ram dawk a kâyo awh e hah pahnim pouh hoeh, hoehoe a kâyo awh.
20 And she longed for her paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose lustfulness is like the lustfulness of horses.
Hahoi kaipkhainaw e a tak teh la e tak patetlah a yangtui teh marang e yangtui doeh toe.
21 And thou calledst to mind the incest of thy youth, when thy bosom was touched by the Egyptians for the sake of thy youthful breasts.
Hettelah na nawca nah na cuknae, Izipnaw ni na sanu a pânam pouh e hah bout na pouk rah.
22 Therefore, O Aholibah, thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will wake up thy lovers against thee, from whom thy soul hath torn itself away, and I will bring them against thee from every side;
Hatdawkvah Oe Oholibah, hettelah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei. Khenhaw! kayonkhaikung, na lungthin hoi na maithoe e hah ka coun vaiteh, a hmuen tangkuem koehoi ka tho sak vaiteh, na tuk sak han.
23 The sons of Babylon, and all the Chaldeans, Pekod, and Shoa and Koa, and all the sons of Asshur with them, attractive youths, governors and rulers all of them, commanders and chiefs, riding upon horses all of them.
Babilon, Khaldean, Pekod, Shoa, hoi Koa hoi ahnimouh koe kaawm e Assirianaw hoi, abuemlahoi ngai ka tho poung e thoundoun, ukkung hoi lawkcengkung, bawi hoi tami a min kamthang abuemlahoi marang dawk kâcui laihoi a tho awh han.
24 And they shall come over thee with weapons, chariots, and wheels, and with an assembly of people, buckler and shield and helmet shall they set up against thee round about: and I will give up before them the right to judge, and they shall judge thee according to their ordinances.
Tarantuknae puengcang, tarantuknae leng, leng hoi tamihupui hoi, a tuk awh han. Saiphei kalen kathoung sumluhuemnaw hoi, ahnimouh koe lawkcengnae hah ka poe han. Lawk a ceng awh e boiboe lah nange lathueng a kuep sak han.
25 And I will set my zealousness against thee, and they shall deal with thee in fury; thy nose and thy ears shall they cut off; and what is left of thee shall fall by the sword: thy sons and thy daughters shall they take away; and what is left of thee shall be devoured by the fire.
Nang e lathueng utnae hah kamnue sak e lahoi, ka hring e hah tahloi hoi a due awh han. Na canu na capa naw hoi na lawp awh han, a hring nah thung hmai ni a kak awh han.
26 And they shall strip thee of thy clothes, and take away thy ornamental attire.
Na khohna hah na rading pouh awh vaiteh, na kamthoupnae kahawi poung e hah koung na la pouh awh han.
27 Thus will I make thy incest to cease from thee, and thy lewdness brought from the land of Egypt: and thou shalt not lift up thy eyes unto them, and Egypt shalt thou not remember any more.
Na cuknae hoi Izip ram hoi na kâyonae hah na kâhat sak han. Hottelah ahnimouh koe lah na mit na hrueng mahoeh toe. Izip ram teh na pâkuem mahoeh toe.
28 For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will give thee up into the hand of those whom thou hatest, into the hand of those from whom thy soul hath torn itself away;
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Bawipa Jehovah ni, hettelah a dei khenhaw! na hmuhma poung e, na lungthin dawk hoi na hmuhma e naw kut dawk na man sak han.
29 And they shall deal with thee in hate, and shall take away all [things acquired by] thy labor, and they shall leave thee naked and bare: and thus shall be uncovered the nakedness of thy lewdness, and thy incest and thy lewd deeds.
Na hmuhma katang awh han. Na tawk awh e a pawhiknaw hah, na la pouh awh han. Caici lah na hruek awh han, na kâyonae caici lah, na cuknae hoi na kâyonae hah kamnue sak e lah ao han.
30 I will do these things unto thee, because thou hast gone with vile lust after the nations, because thou hast defiled thyself with their idols.
Hete hnonaw heh nange lathueng a pha han. Alouke miphun koehoi na kâyo teh a meikaphawknaw dawk na kâkhinsak dawkvah,
31 On the way of thy sister hast thou walked; therefore will I place her cup into thy hand.
na hmau e lamthung na dawn. Hatdawkvah, a neinae manang hah na kut dawk na poe han telah a ti.
32 Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The cup of thy sister shalt thou drink, the deep and wide one: thou shalt become to be laughed to scorn and to be held in derision, more than thou canst bear.
Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Na hmau e a neinae manang kalenpounge thung hoi na nei vaiteh, pacekpahleknae hoi panuikhai e lah na o han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hote manang dawk moikapap a kâen dawkvah.
33 With drunkenness and sorrow shalt thou be filled, [out of] the cup of astonishment and confusion, the cup of thy sister Samaria.
Yamuhrinae hoi lungmathoenae hoi na kawi vaiteh, kângairunae hoi rawknae, na hmau Samaria e manang hoi he na nei han.
34 Thou shalt even drink it and drain it out, and thou shalt break in pieces its fragments, and tear thy own breasts; for I have spoken it, saith the Lord Eternal.
Na nei vaiteh be na yawn han. Manang na kâbang sak vaiteh, a sanu hah hawng pouh han, bangkongtetpawiteh kai ni ka dei toe telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei.
35 Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because thou hast forgotten me, and cast me behind thy back: therefore bear thou also thy incest and thy acts of lewdness.
Hatdawkvah Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Kâ na poe na hnin teh na kamlang takhai dawkvah, na cuknae hoi na kâyonae phu hah na phu hanelah ao.
36 The Lord said moreover unto me, Son of man, wilt thou call Aholah and Aholibah to account? then tell them of their abominations;
Hothloilah BAWIPA ni kai koe lawk bout na dei pouh, tami capa Oholah hi Oholibah teh lawk na ceng han na maw. Panuet a thonae hah ahnimouh koe na pâpho han.
37 That they have committed adultery, and there is blood on their hands, and with their idols have they committed adultery, and also their sons whom they had born unto me have they caused to pass for them through [the fire], to devour them.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a uicuk awh, a thi hah a kut dawk a kâhluk teh, amamae meikaphawk koe a kâyo awh. Kai hanelah a khe e a capanaw hah, ahnimouh koe hmaisawi thueng hanelah a poe awh.
38 Moreover this have they done unto me: they have defiled my sanctuary on the same day, and my sabbaths have they profaned.
Hothloilah kai koe hetheh a sak awh, ahnimouh ni ka min kathoung hah a khin sak awh teh, kaie sabbath hai a tapoe awh.
39 And when they had slain their children to their idols, then came they into my sanctuary on the same day to profane it: and, lo, thus have they done in the midst of my house.
Amamae meikaphawk hanelah a canaw a thei awh hnukkhu, a mamanaw letlang hah, kaie hmuen kathoung kamhnawng sak hanelah a kâen awh. Khenhaw, hettelah ka imthung roeroe vah ouk a sak awh.
40 And farthermore yet, because they sent for men who were to come from afar, unto whom messengers were sent; and, lo, they came, for whom thou didst bathe thyself, paint thy eyes, and deck thyself with ornaments;
Hat dueng nahoeh rah, kho hlanae koe kaawm e hah a tho nahan lawk na thui awh teh, patoune hah na patoun awh. Khenhaw a tho awh teh, ahnimouh kecu dawk na kamhluk teh, na mit dawk puk na hluk teh, aphunphun lah kamthoupnae hoi na kamthoup.
41 And thou didst sit upon a stately bed, with a table spread before it, and my incense and my oil didst thou set upon it.
Kahawi e tahungnae dawk na tahung teh, a hmalah caboi na hung teh hmuitui hoi satui hah hote hmuen koe na pâhung.
42 And the shout of a peaceful joyous multitude was [heard] within her; and with the men of the masses of the common people were brought Sabeans from the wilderness; and these women placed bracelets on their hands, and crowns of glory upon their heads.
A nawmnae lahoi taminaw a hramnae hai ka thai. Alouke taminaw hoi kahrawng hoi rei a tho awh teh, a kut dawk laikaw, a lû dawk kahawipoung e bawilakhungnaw a kâmuk, yamu ka parui e hai a thokhai awh.
43 Then thought I of her that was worn out in adulteries, Will they now [still] commit lewdness with her, when she [is thus]?
Kai ni ka uicuk tangcoung e napui hah a yonkhai ngai awh han na maw telah ka ti.
44 But men went in unto her, as they go in unto a faithless wife: thus went they in unto Aholah and unto Aholibah, the incestuous women.
Kâyawtnaw koe a cei awh toteh, ahnimouh koe mingming doeh a kâen awh. Hottelah ka cuk e napui Oholah hoi Oholibah koe a kâen awh.
45 Righteous men, however—these shall judge them as adulteresses are judged, and as women that shed blood are judged; because adulteresses are they, and blood is on their hands.
Hateiteh, tamikalan ni ka uicuk e hoi kaawm e napui hoi ka tami ka thet e napui lawkceng e patetlah lawk a ceng awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka uicuk e hoi kaawm e a kâbet.
46 For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will bring up against them an assemblage of men, and I will give them up to ill-usage and plunder.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Nangmouh taran e lahoi tamihu hah ka coun han. Na lawp awh vaiteh, ka patawpoung lah na katin sak han.
47 And the assemblage shall stone them with stones, and cut them down with their swords: their sons and their daughters shall they slay, and their houses shall they burn with fire.
Hahoi kamkhueng e tamihu ni talung hoi na dei awh han. Tahloi hoi na bouk awh vaiteh, a canunaw hoi a capanaw a thei awh han. A imnaw hai hmai be a sawi pouh.
48 Thus will I cause incest to cease out of the land, that all women may be warned by example, and not do after your incestuous course.
Napuinaw pueng ni, cuknae hah sak hane nahoeh tie a panue thai awh nah, het patetlah cuknae hah ram thung hoi ka pahma han.
49 And they shall lay your incest upon you, and the sins of your idols shall ye bear: and ye shall know that I am the Lord Eternal.
Namamae lathueng na cuknae hah a moi na pathung awh vaiteh, meikaphawk yonnae hah na khan awh han. Hahoi kai heh Bawipa Jehovah lah ka o tie na panue awh han telah a ti.
