< Ezekiel 18 >
1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Hichun kahenga Pakai thusei achom dang khat ahung lhunge.
2 “What [is it] to you [that] you are using this allegory Concerning the ground of Israel, saying, Fathers eat unripe fruit, And the sons’ teeth are blunted?
“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,” a declaration of Lord YHWH, “You no longer have the use of this allegory in Israel.
Tahbeh mongin keima kahing jinge tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije. Israel lah a hiche hi nanungsei kit louhel diu ahitai.
4 Behold, all the souls are Mine, As the soul of the father, So also the soul of the son—they are Mine, The soul that is sinning—it dies.
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 And a man, when he is righteous, And has done judgment and righteousness,
Tekah nan, mipa khat chu michonpha ahi, adih chetna atoh a chuleh adih a ahile,
6 He has not eaten on the mountains, And has not lifted up his eyes To idols of the house of Israel, And did not defile his neighbor’s wife, And did not come near to a separated woman,
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 He does not oppress a man, He returns his pledge to the debtor, He does not take away plunder, He gives his bread to the hungry, And covers the naked with a garment,
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 He does not give in usury, and does not take increase, He turns back his hand from perversity, He does true judgment between man and man.
Sum akan lalouva sumbat ahomma, thudih louva thu kitanna konna akikangse a, lungthengsel ahia, chule midang thutanna agamlat a,
9 He walks in My statutes, And he has kept My judgments—to deal truly, He [is] righteous—he surely lives,” A declaration of Lord YHWH.
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 he has begotten a son, A burglar—a shedder of blood, And he has made a brother of one of these,
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 And he has not done all those, For he has even eaten on the mountains, And he 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 He has oppressed the afflicted and needy, He has taken away plunder violently, He does not return a pledge, And he has lifted up his eyes to the idols, He has done abomination!
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 He has given in usury, and taken increase, And he lives? He does not live, He has done all these abominations, He surely dies, his blood is on 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—behold, he has begotten a son, And he sees all the sins of his father, That he has done, and he fears, And does not do like 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 He has not eaten on the mountains, And he has not lifted up his eyes To idols of the house of Israel, He 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 He has not oppressed a man, He has not bound a pledge, And he has not taken away plunder, He has given his bread to the hungry, And he covered the naked with a garment,
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 He has turned back his hand from the afflicted, He has not taken usury and increase, He has done My judgments, He has walked in My statutes, He does not die for the iniquity of his father, He surely lives.
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 His father—because he used oppression, Violently plundered a brother, And did that which [is] not good in the midst of his people, And behold, he is dying 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 And you have said, Why has the son not borne of the iniquity of the father? And the son has done judgment and righteousness, He has kept all My statutes, And he does them, he surely lives.
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 The soul that sins—it dies. A son does not bear of the iniquity of the father, And a father does not bear of the iniquity of the son, The righteousness of the righteous is on him, And the wickedness of the wicked is on 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 the wicked—when he turns back From all his sins that he has done, And he has kept all My statutes, And has done judgment and righteousness, He surely lives, he does not 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 All his transgressions that he has done Are not remembered to him, In his righteousness that he has done he lives.
Achesa phat a achonset nau jouse kisuhmil peh a chuleh chonphat abol hou jouse jeh a hing diu ahi.
23 Do I take pleasure [or] delight in the death of the wicked?” A declaration of Lord YHWH, “Is it not in his turning back from his way—And he has lived?
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 And in the turning back of the righteous from his righteousness, And he has done perversity, According to all the abominations That the wicked has done, Does he then live? All his righteous deeds that he has done are not remembered, For his trespass that he has trespassed, And for his sin that he has sinned, For them he dies.
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 And you have said, The way of the Lord is not pondered. Now hear, O house of Israel, My way—is it not pondered? Are not your ways unpondered?
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 In the turning back of the righteous from his righteousness, And he has done perversity, And he is dying by them, He dies for his perversity that he has done.
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 in the turning back of the wicked From his wickedness that he has done, And he does judgment and righteousness, He keeps his soul alive.
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 he sees and turns back, From all his transgressions that he has done, He surely lives, he does 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 And the house of Israel has said, The way of the Lord is not pondered, My ways—are they not pondered? O house of Israel—are not your ways unpondered?
Ahijeng vang'in Israel mipi ten hitin aseije uve. Pakaiyin thilpha abolpoi, “O Israel mipite, thilpha bollou chu nangho nahiuvin kei kahipoi.”
30 Therefore, I judge each according to his ways, O house of Israel,” A declaration of Lord YHWH, “Turn back, indeed, turn yourselves back, From all your transgressions, And iniquity is not for a stumbling-block to you,
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 all your transgressions from over you, By which you have transgressed, And make a new heart and a new spirit for yourselves, And why do 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 have no pleasure in the death of the dying,” A declaration of Lord YHWH, “Therefore turn back and live!”
Kinung heijun lang hingun, nathi diu kadeipoi tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije.
