< Ezekiel 33 >
1 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
2 Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, If there be a land over which I bring the sword, and the people of the land take a man from among themselves, and appoint him unto themselves for a watchman;
tami capa, na miphun na catoun koe lawk dei haw. Ram dawk tahloi ka pha sak teh, ram dawk e taminaw ni amamouh thung dawk e tami buet touh a la awh teh, ramveng lah a hruek awh toteh,
3 And if he see the sword coming over the land, and blow the cornet, and warn the people;
ram dawk tahloi a pha e a hmu toteh, mongka hah ueng laihoi taminaw hah kâhruetcuetnae poe pawiteh,
4 And whosoever heareth the sound of the cornet, and taketh no warning; and the sword cometh, and taketh him away: his blood shall be upon his own head.
mongka ueng e pawlawk ka thai e pueng ni kâhruetcuet lai hoi awm laipalah, tahloi hoi a due nakunghai, a thipaling phu teh a ma ni a khang han.
5 The sound of the cornet hath he heard, and he hath taken no warning; his blood shall be upon him. But had he taken warning he would have delivered his soul.
Mongka lawk a thai nahlangva, kâhruetcuet poenae banglahai a noutna hoeh dawkvah, a thipaling phu teh a khang han. Hateiteh, a lawkpui lah hrueng pawiteh, a hringnae a rungngang han.
6 But if the watchman see the sword coming, and blow not the cornet, so that the people be not warned, and the sword cometh, and taketh away from among them some person: this one is taken away for his iniquity; but his blood will I require from the watchman's hand.
Hateiteh, ramveng ni tahloi a pha e hah a hmu teh, mongka ueng hoeh lah, taminaw hah kâhruetcuetnae poe laipalah, ka phat e tahloi ni ahnimouh thung e tami buetbuet touh dout sak pawiteh, payonnae dawk a due han. A thipaling phu teh ramveng koe ka suk han telah dei pouh.
7 But as for thee, O son of man, I have appointed thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: so that when thou hearest a word from my mouth, thou shalt warn them from me.
Hot patetlah nang tami capa, Isarel imthung hanelah, ramveng lah na rawi, hatdawkvah, ka pahni dawk hoi ka tâcawt e lawk hah na thai teh, kai hanelah kâhruetcuetnae na poe awh han.
8 When I say unto the wicked, O wicked one, thou shalt surely die; and thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way: that wicked one shall die for his iniquity; but his blood will I require from thy hand.
Tamikathout koe, Oe! tamikathout na due roeroe han, telah ka ti toteh, tamikathout teh a hringnuen kamlang khai hanelah, kâhruetcuetnae na poe hoeh, haw e tamikathout teh a yon dawk dout pawiteh, a thipaling phu teh nang koe na suk han.
9 Nevertheless, if thou hast indeed warned the wicked of his way to turn away from it, and he do not turn from his way: he shall certainly die for his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.
Nahoeh pawiteh, tamikathout teh a hringnuen ceitakhai hanelah kâhruetcuetnae na poe ei, a hringnuen cettakhai hoeh boilah, a payonnae dawk a due han, nang teh na hringnae na rungngang lah ao han.
10 But thou, O son of man, speak unto the house of Israel, Thus do ye speak, saying, Truly our transgressions and our sins are upon us, and through them do we pine away: how then shall we live?
Hatdawkvah, tami capa Isarel imthung koevah, hettelah dei haw, ka sak e yonnae hoi lawkeknae ni na ratet, hote hno kecu dawk ka rawknae lah awm pawiteh, bangtelamaw ka hring thai awh han, telah na ti awh.
11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord Eternal, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but in the return of the wicked from his way that he may live: return ye, return ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei e teh, kai ka hring e patetlah tamikathout teh, a duenae dawk ka lunghawinae ka tawn hoeh, tamikathout ni a hringnuen a ceitakhai e doeh kai ka lunghawinae lah ao.
12 But thou, son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him on the day of his transgression; and as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not stumble through it on the day that he returneth from his wickedness; nor shall the righteous be able to live through the other on the day that he sinneth.
Kahawi hoeh e na hringnuen koehoi ban awh. Ban awh, Oe! Isarel imthungnaw bang dawk ne na due awh han, telah ati. Hatdawkvah, nang tami capa na taminaw koe dei haw. Tamikalan teh rawm pawiteh a lannae ni a rungngang thai mahoeh. Tamikathout ni thoenae hah roun pawiteh, ahmaloe e a thoenae kecu dawk rawknae koe phat mahoeh. Tamikalan teh a yonnae hnin dawk hring thai kalawn mahoeh.
13 When I say of the righteous, that he shall surely live, and he trusteth to his own righteousness, and committeth what is wrong: all his righteous deeds shall not be remembered, and for his wrong that he hath committed, —through this shall he die.
Tamikalan koevah na hring roeroe han telah ka ti navah, a lannae kâuep hoi yonnae sak pawiteh, lannae a sak e hah buet touh hai panue pouh e lah awm mahoeh, yonnae a saknae dawkvah a due han.
14 Again, when I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and he turneth from his sin, and executeth justice and righteousness;
Tamikayon koevah na due roeroe han, bout ka ti pouh teh, a yonnae kamlang takhai pawiteh, thoungnae hoi lannae a sak toteh,
15 If the wicked restore the pledge, make restitution for what he hath robbed, walk in the statutes of life, so as not to do any wrong: he shall surely live, he shall not die.
Tamikayon na hung e hno hah a pâban teh, a paru e hah bout a poe, hringnae a phunglam hah a tarawi payonnae banghai sak hoehpawiteh, a hring roeroe han, dout mahoeh.
16 All his sins that he hath committed shall not be remembered unto him: justice and righteousness hath he executed, he shall surely live.
Yonnae a sak tangcoung e hah nâtuek hai pâkuem pouh mahoeh toe. Thoungnae hoi lannae a sak toung dawkvah, a hring roeroe han.
17 Yet say the children of thy people, The way of the Lord is not equitable: while, as to them, their way is not equitable.
Hateiteh, na taminaw ni BAWIPA hno sak e lan hoeh ati awh toteh, a sak awh e hah a lan hoeh dawk doeh.
18 When the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and doth what is wrong, he shall even die therefore.
Tamikalan ni a lannae kamlang takhai teh yonnae sak pawiteh, hote kecu dawk a due han.
19 And when the wicked returneth from his wickedness, and executeth justice and righteousness, he shall surely live therefore.
Tamikayon ni a yonnae a kamlang takhai teh, thoungnae hoi lannae sak pawiteh, hote lahoi a hring han.
20 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equitable. Every one after his own ways will I judge you, O house of Israel.
Hateiteh, BAWIPA hnosaknae heh, lan hoeh telah na ti awh, Oe! Isarel imthungnaw, tami pueng amamae a hringnae patetlah lawkceng han telah a ti.
21 And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the tenth month, on the fifth day of the month after our exile, that there came unto me one that had escaped out of Jerusalem, saying, The city hath been smitten.
Kaimouh santoungnae kum hlaikahni, thapa yung hra, hnin panga hnin vah, Jerusalem hoi ka yawng e tami buet touh kai koe a tho teh, khopui teh tâ e lah ao toe telah a ti.
22 Now the inspiration of the Lord was come upon me in the evening, before the coming of the one who had escaped; and he had opened my mouth, before he was come to me in the morning; and my mouth was opened and I was not kept dumb any more.
Hote ka yawng e a pha hoehnahlan tangminlah, BAWIPA ni kaie lathueng a kut a toung, amom lah kai koe a tho navah, ka pahni yo na ang sak toe. Hottelah ka pahni ka ang teh, lawk ka dei thai laipalah ka o.
23 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
24 Son of man, they that dwell in these ruins in the land of Israel say as followeth, But one man was Abraham, and he obtained the land as an inheritance; and as we are many, the land must [surely] be given to us for an inheritance.
tami capa ka rawk e Isarel ram dawk kaawm rae ahnimouh ni Abraham teh buet touh dueng eiteh, ram teh a ring. Maimouh teh moipap awh teh ram râw lah na poe awh toe nahoehmaw, telah ati awh.
25 Therefore say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, By the blood do ye eat, and your eyes do you lift up toward your idols, and blood do ye shed: and ye expect to possess the land?
Hatdawkvah, ahnimouh koe Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Moi hah a thi hoi na ca awh teh, meikaphawknaw koe na mit na um sak awh, tami na thei awh, nangmouh ni ram hah na coe awh han na maw.
26 Ye depend upon your sword, ye commit abomination, and ye defile every one his neighbor's wife: and ye expect to possess the land?
Na tahloi na kâuep awh teh, panuettho e hno hah na sak awh. Na imri e yunaw na yonkhai awh, nangmouh ni ram hah na coe han na maw.
27 Thus shalt thou say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, As I live, surely those that are in the ruined places shall fall by the sword, and him that is in the open field will I give to the beasts that they may devour him, and those that are in the strongholds and in the caves shall die through the pestilence.
Hettelah ahnimouh koe na dei pouh han, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, Kai ka hring e patetlah ka rawk e ram dawk kaawm e hah tahloi hoi a due roeroe han, kahrawngum kaawm e hah, sarang ni a ca hanelah ka poe han. Kacake rapanim hoi talung kâko dawk kaawm e hah lacik patawnae hoi a due awh han.
28 And I will render the land desolate and wasted, and the pride of her strength shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, with none to pass through them.
Ram pueng kingdi vaiteh, takikathopounge lah ka o sak han, a hnotithainae a kâoupnae hah a baw han toe. Isarel mon teh kingdi vaiteh, apinihai cet awm awh mahoeh toe.
29 And they shall experience that I am the Lord, when I render the land desolate and wasted, because of all their abominations which they have committed.
Panuet ka tho e hno a sak awh kecu dawkvah, a ram teh ka raphoe vaiteh, takikathopounge lah ka o sak hnukkhu, kai teh BAWIPA lah ka o tie a panue awh han.
30 And thou, son of man, [there are] the children of thy people, who are talking about thee by the walls and in the entrances of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Do come, and hear what the word is which cometh forth from the Lord.
Hathnukkhu nang, tami capa, tapang teng e takhangnaw koe, na taminaw hoi pou na dei awh vaiteh, tami pueng ni a hmaunawngha koevah, tho awh haw, BAWIPA koe e lawk thai awh haw sei, telah ati awh han.
31 And then they come unto thee as the people come, and they sit before thee [as] my people, and they hear thy words, but do not execute them; for as merry songs they carry them in their mouth, while their heart goeth after their unlawful gains.
Kaie tami patetlah nang koe a tho vaiteh, kaie ka tami patetlah na hmalah a tahung awh vaiteh, nange na lawk a thai nakunghai yah, tarawi awh mahoeh. Ngai ka tho poung e mitnoutnae hah a pahni hoi a kamnue sak nakunghai, a lungthin ni talai hno dueng hah a pouk awh han.
32 And, lo, thou art unto them as a merry song of one that hath a pleasant voice, and can play well: and [thus] they hear thy words, but execute them not.
Khenhaw! nang teh ahnimae lah pahrennae la, kahawipoung lah sak e hoi kahawicalah kueng e lah na o han, na lawk a thai awh han, hatei tarawi awh mahoeh.
33 But when it cometh to pass, [lo, it will come, ] then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them.
Hattoteh a pha han toe, khenhaw! a pha torei teh, ahnimouh koe profet ao tie hah ahnimouh ni a panue awh han telah, tet pouh telah a ti.
