< Ezekiel 3 >
1 And he said unto me, Son of man, eat what thou findest: eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.
Te phoeiah kai te, “Hlang capa aw hekah cayol he na hmuh te ca la ca. Te phoeiah cet lamtah Israel imkhui te thui pah,” a ti.
2 So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat this roll.
Te dongah ka ka te ka ang tih cayol te ka caak.
3 And he said unto me, Son of man, feed thy belly, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I am giving unto thee. And I ate it; and it was in my mouth like honey in sweetness.
Te phoeiah kai te, “Hlang capa aw namah taengah cayol kam paek he na bungko duela ca lamtah na bung hah sak,” a ti. Ka caak tangloeng vaengah tah ka ka dongah a didip neh khoitui bangla om.
4 And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.
Te phoeiah kai taengah, “Hlang capa, cet lamtah Israel imkhui te paan laeh, amih taengah kamah ol neh thui pah.
5 For not to a people of an obscure speech and of a difficult tongue art thou sent, but to the house of Israel;
A hmuilai aka khuet neh ol aka kael pilnam taengah pawt tih Israel imkhui taengah ni nang kan tueih.
6 Not to many people of an obscure speech and of a difficult tongue, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would truly have hearkened unto thee.
A hmuilai aka khuet tih a ol a kael neh a olka na yakming pawh pilnam cungkuem taengah moenih. Amih taengah pawt koinih nang kan tueih khaw amih loh nang ol te a hnatun uh suidae.
7 But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me; for all the house of Israel have a bold forehead, and a hard heart.
Tedae Israel imkhui loh nang ol te hnatun ham huem uh pawh. Kai ol pataeng hnatun ham a ngaih uh moenih. Israel imkhui boeih tah a tal tlungluen tih a lungbuei khaw mangkhak uh.
8 Behold, I have made thy face strong against their face, and thy forehead strong against their forehead.
Na maelhmai te amih maelhmai bangla ka tlungluen sak vetih na tal khaw amih tal bangla te ka tlungluen sak bitni ne.
9 As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead: thou shalt not fear them, nor shalt thou be dismayed at their presence, though they be a rebellious family.
Na tal te hmailung lakah tlungluen lungning la kang khueh bitni. Amih te rhih boel lamtah amih boekoek imkhui kah a mikhmuh ah rhihyawp boeh,” a ti.
10 And he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I will speak unto thee receive in thy heart, and hear [them] with thy ears.
Te phoeiah kamah te, “Hlang capa aw, nang taengah ka thui kamah ol boeih he na thinko ah dueh lamtah na hna neh hnatun.
11 And go, get thee to those in exile, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal: whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.
Cet lamtah na pilnam paca vangsawn te paan laeh. Amih te thui pah lamtah a hnatun akhaw a toeng akhaw Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he amih taengah thui pah,” a ti.
12 Then a spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, [saying, ] Blessed be the glory of the Lord from his place.
Te vaengah mueihla loh kai te n'dangrhoek tih ka hnukkah amah hmuen ah BOEIPA kah thangpomnah a tanglue la a uem te hinghuennah ol la yaak.
13 [I heard] also the sound of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the sound of the wheels at the same time with them, and the sound of a great rushing.
Mulhing manu neh a la te a phae hum ol neh a voeivang kah lengkho ol khaw hinghuennah tanglue ol la ka yaak.
14 So a spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I walked in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit, and the inspiration of the Lord was strong upon me.
Te phoeiah mueihla loh kai n'dangrhoek tih ng'khuen. Tedae BOEIPA kut he kai soah ha tlungluen tih ka mueihla tah kosi neh khahing la ka cet.
15 Then came I to the exiles at Tel-abib, who dwelt by the river Kebar, and I remained where they dwelt, and I remained there in a state of confusion among them seven days.
Te dongah Kebar tuiva ah kho aka sa Telabib vangsawn taengla ka pawk. Amih khosa rhoek taengah pahoi ka om tangloeng dae hnin rhih ka om mah amih lakli ah ka pong coeng.
16 And it came to pass at the end of seven days, That the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
Hnin rhih a bawtnah a pha vaengah BOEIPA ol kai taengla ha pawk.
17 Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: and thou shalt hear the word out of my mouth, and give them warning from me.
Te vaengah, “Hlang capa nang te Israel imkhui ham rhaltawt la kang khueh coeng. Ka ka lamkah ol he na yaak coeng dongah kai lamlong mah amih te thuituen.
18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou dost not give him warning, and speakest not to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life: the same wicked man shall die through his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thy hand.
Halang te, 'Na duek rhoe na duek ni, 'ka ti coeng. Tedae halang te a halang longpuei lamloh ah hinglu hlawt ham thuituen tueng te na thuituen pawt tih na thui pawt vaengah, halang khaw amah kathaesainah neh duek koinih anih thii te nang kut lamloh ka suk ni.
19 But thou, —if thou hast warned the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way: he shall indeed die in his iniquity; but thou hast surely delivered thy soul.
Tedae nang halang te na thuituen lalah a halangnah neh a halang longpuei lamloh a mael pawt atah, anih te amah kathaesainah dongah duek vetih nang tah na hinglu na huul ni.
20 Again, When a righteous man do turn from his righteousness, and do what is wrong: then will I lay a stumbling-block before him, [so that] he shall die; yet if thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his acts of righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require from thy hand.
Hlang dueng khaw a duengnah lamloh mael tih dumlai a saii van atah a mikhmuh ah hmuitoel ka khueh pah vetih anih te duek ni. A tholhnah dongah anih na thuituen pawt koinih a duek vaengah duengnah a saii te poek uh mahpawh. Tedae a thii te nang kut dongah kan toem ni.
21 But if thou hast truly warned him, —the righteous, that the righteous should not sin, and he doth not sin: he shall surely live, because he attended to the warning, and thou hast surely delivered thy own soul.
Aka dueng te a tholh pawt ham a dueng la amah na thuituen van atah anih khaw tholh mahpawh. A thuituen lamloh hing rhoe hing vetih nang khaw na hinglu te na huul van ni,” a ti.
22 And the inspiration of the Lord came there over me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the valley, and there will I speak with thee.
Te phoeiah kai soah BOEIPA kah kut pahoi om tih kai taengah, “Thoo lamtah kolbawn la na pawk vaengah namah te pahoi kam voek ni,” a ti.
23 And I arose, and went forth into the valley; and, behold, there was the glory of the Lord standing, like that glory which I had seen by the river Kebar: and I fell down on my face.
Te dongah ka thoo tih kolbawn la ka cet. Te vaengah BOEIPA kah thangpomnah tah thangpomnah bangla pahoi a pai tarha te Kebar tuiva ah ka hmuh tih ka hmai longah ka bakop.
24 Then entered a spirit into me, and placed me upright on my feet, and spoke with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself up within thy house.
Te vaengah ka khuila mueihla ha kun tih ka kho lamloh kai n'thoh. Te daengah kai te m'voek tih kamah taengah, “Na im khui te paan lamtah khai laeh.
25 But thou, O son of man, behold, they put ropes upon thee, and bind thee with them, that thou canst not go out among them:
Nang hlang capa te ne, nang soah rhuivaeh hang khueh uh vetih amih taengah nang m'pin uh ni. Te dongah amih lakli ah na mop thai mahpawh.
26 And I will let thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not become to them a man who reproveth; for they are a rebellious family.
Na lai khaw na dang la ka kap sak vetih na tum uh ni. Amih boekoek imkhui aka tluung loh hlang bangla amih taengah na om thai moenih.
27 But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, He that heareth, let him hear; and he that forbeareth, let him forebear; for they are a rebellious family.
Tedae nang taengah kan thui vaengah na ka kang ong bitni. Te vaengah amih te, 'Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui,’ ti nah lamtah, aka ngai long tah ngai saeh. Amih tah boekoek imkhui la a om dongah a hnawtkhoe long tah toeng ngawn saeh,” a ti.
