< Ezekiel 22 >
1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Hothloilah, BAWIPA e lawk hah kai koe a pha teh,
2 “And you, son of man, do you judge? Do you judge the city of blood? Then you have caused it to know all its abominations,
nang tami capa, thi ka Palawng e khopui hah lawk na ceng hah na maw, Bokheiyah panuet a thonae naw hah panuek sak.
3 and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: The city is shedding blood in its midst, For the coming in of its time, And it has made idols on it for defilement.
Ahnimouh koe Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Amae tueng roeroe navah thipalawngnae khopui atueng a pha nahanelah, amahoima kâkhinsak hanelah meikaphawk hah a sak.
4 You have been guilty by your blood that you have shed, And you have been defiled by your idols that you have made, And you cause your days to draw near, And have come to your years, Therefore I have given you [for] a reproach to nations, And a derision to all the lands.
Tami hringnae na thei e lahoi yonpen e lah na o teh meikaphawk na sak e dawkvah na kâkhinsak. Namae na hnin na hnai sak teh, na kum apoutnae meimei a pha toe. Hatdawkvah, miphunnaw na pathoenae hoi ram pueng ni dudam e lah na o sak han.
5 The near and the far-off from you scoff at you, O defiled of name—abounding in trouble.
Na tengpam e taminaw hoi lamhla e taminaw ni pathoenae hoi pacekpahleknae hoi ka kawi e patetlah na panuikhai han.
6 Behold, princes of Israel—each according to his arm Have been in you to shed blood.
Khenhaw! Isarel ukkungnaw ni nangmouh thi Palawng hanelah a thaonae rip a hno awh.
7 They have made light of father and mother in you, They dealt oppressively to a sojourner in your midst, They oppressed fatherless and widow in you.
Nangmouh thung manu na pa hah a dudam awh teh, nangmae rahak alouke miphun khok hoi a coungroe awh teh, nangmouh dawk e nara hoi lahmai hah banglahai noutna awh hoeh.
8 You have despised My holy things, And you have defiled My Sabbaths.
Nang ni kaie thoungnae naw banglahai noutna hoeh e lah na sak toe. Kaie sabbath hninnaw na tapoe toe.
9 Men of slander have been in you to shed blood, And they have eaten on the mountains in you, They have done wickedness in your midst.
Namamouh thung e tami thipalawng han na ngai teh, thuengnae moi, tami tangawn ni a ca awh, hno kathout ka sak e ao awh.
10 One has uncovered the nakedness of a father in you, They humbled the menstruous woman in you.
Nangmouh thung dawk a na pa e yu hah caicinae na ramuk awh hoeh. Kampheng lahun e napui hai a yonkhai awh toe.
11 And each has done abomination with the wife of his neighbor, And each has defiled his daughter-in-law through wickedness, And each has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter, in you.
Nangmouh thung dawk tami tangawn ni amae imri yu koe panuettho e hno a sak awh toe, a langa a kamhnawngkhai awh toe, tangawn ni a tawncanu, a na pa e canu hah a pacekpahlek awh.
12 They have taken a bribe to shed blood in you, You have taken usury and increase, And cut off your neighbor by oppression, And you have forgotten Me, A declaration of Lord YHWH!
Nangmouh thung dawk tami theinae han lah tadawnghno hai na la awh, apung na ca teh, tangka na cawi awh, imri e hnopai na lawp awh.
13 And behold, I have struck My hand, Because of your dishonest gain that you have gained, And for your blood that has been in your midst.
Hatdawkvah, nama ni na pâkhueng e hnopai namamouh thung dawk thi na Palawng e kecu dawk kai ni kut ka tambei sin han.
14 Does your heart stand—are your hands strong, For the days that I am dealing with you? I, YHWH, have spoken and have done [it].
Kai ni nang lawk na ceng toteh, na lungthin na cak sak thai han na ou. Na kut hai a tha ao thai han na ou. Kai BAWIPA ni ka dei tangcoung e patetlah ka sak han.
15 And I have scattered you among nations, And have spread you out among lands, And consumed your uncleanness out of you.
Nang hai ram miphun tangkuem koevah, na kâkayei sak han. Hateiteh, na khinnae hah be kahma sak han.
16 And you have been defiled in yourself Before the eyes of nations, And you have known that I [am] YHWH.”
Miphunnaw e hmaitung vah mahoima na kâkhinsak. BAWIPA lah ka o tie na panue han ati tet pouh telah ati.
17 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
18 “Son of man, the house of Israel has been for dross to Me, All of them [are] bronze, and tin, and iron, and lead, In the midst of a furnace—silver has been dross,
tami capa Isarel imthung hah kai hanelah sumei lah doeh ao. Ahnimanaw teh sôlêi e, tahmanghmai dawk phum e, rahum paling, rahum pangaw, sum hoi ngunei patetlah doeh ao awh.
19 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Because you have all become dross, Therefore, behold, I am gathering you into the midst of Jerusalem,
Hatdawkvah Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Ei rumram lah na o awh dawkvah, khenhaw! Jerusalem kho lungui na pâkhueng awh.
20 A gathering of silver, and bronze, and iron, and lead, and tin, Into the midst of a furnace—to blow fire on it, to melt it, So I gather in My anger and in My fury, And I have let rest, and have melted you.
Ngun, rahum paling, rahum pangaw, sum, konlawk naw hmai patawi sin teh a tui lah kamyawt hanelah, thawngnae dawk khuk papawp e patetlah kai teh ka lung puenghoi a khuek teh, nangmouh teh kho lungui vah na pâkhueng awh vaiteh, atui lah na kamyawt sak han.
21 And I have heaped you up, And blown on you in the fire of My wrath, And you have been melted in its midst.
Atangcalah na pâkhueng awh vaiteh, kaie ka lungkhueknae hmai, ka patawi vaiteh, nangmouh teh kho thung atui lah na kamyawt awh han.
22 As the melting of silver in the midst of a furnace, So you are melted in its midst, And you have known that I, YHWH, have poured out My fury on you.”
Ngun thawngnae dawkvah atui lah kamyawt e patetlah nangmanaw teh kho thung vah atui lah na kamyawt awh vaiteh, kai BAWIPA ni nangmae lathueng vah, kaie ka lungkhueknae ka awi toe tie hah na panue awh han telah ati.
23 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
24 “Son of man, say to it, You [are] a land, It [is] not cleansed nor rained on in a day of indignation.
tami capa ahni koe dei pouh nang teh, lungkhueknae ahni dawk kho ka rak hoeh e, khotui hah ka dawp hoeh e ram lah ao.
25 A conspiracy of its prophets [is] in its midst, As a roaring lion tearing prey; They have devoured the soul, They have taken wealth and glory, Its widows have multiplied in its midst.
Hote ram dawkvah, profetnaw teh a kâyouk awh toe. Ka huk ni teh moi ka kei e sendek patetlah taminaw a ca awh. Hno kuemnae hoi aphu kaawm e hnopainaw a lawp awh toe. Khothung vah lahmainaw moikapap lah ao sak awh.
26 Its priests have wronged My law, And they defile My holy things, They have not made separation between holy and common, And they have not made known [the difference] between the unclean and the clean, And they have hidden their eyes from My Sabbaths, And I am pierced in their midst.
Ahnimae vaihmanaw ni hai kaie kâlawk a ek awh teh, kaie a thoungnae hmuen hai a khinsak awh. Kathounge hoi kathounghoehe hoi kapek awh hoeh. Kathounge hoi kathounghoehe mak kâkalawtsak awh, kaie sabbath hnin hai a kâpahnim sak awh.
27 Its princes [are] as wolves in its midst, Tearing prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, For the sake of gaining dishonest gain.
Kahrawikungnaw ni hai moi ka kei e Asuinaw patetlah ram thung ao awh teh, kamsoumhoehe apung a tawng awh teh, tami hringnae a thei awh.
28 And its prophets have coated with chalk for them, Seeing a vain thing, and divining a lie for them, Saying, Thus said Lord YHWH, And YHWH has not spoken.
Ahnimae profetnaw ni thungpangaw a hluk awh teh, kaphawk e kamnuenae hah a hmu awh. Laithoe lahoi cungpam a rayu pouh awh. BAWIPA ni banghai a dei hoeh nakunghai, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, telah ouk ati awh.
29 The people of the land have used oppression, And have taken plunder away violently, And have oppressed humble and needy, And oppressed the sojourner without judgment.
Khocanaw hai rektapnae tahloi hoi a tuk awh, ka roedengnaw hah pacekpahleknae Jentelnaw hai kahawihoehe lahoi a pacekpahlek awh.
30 And I seek from them a man making a wall, And standing in the breach before Me, In behalf of the land—not to destroy it, And I have found none.
Ram hah ka raphoe hoeh nahan, rapan ka sak hane hoi ram e a yueng lah kai han e ka kangdout hanelah ahnimouh koe ka tawng, hatei ka hmawt hoeh.
31 And I pour out My indignation on them, I have consumed them by [the] fire of My wrath, I have put their way on their own head, A declaration of Lord YHWH!”
Hatdawkvah, ka lungkhueknae teh ahnimae lathueng ka rabawk teh, ka lungkhueknae hmai hoi ka sawi. A hringnae hoi kamcu lah ahnimae lathueng ka pha sak e doeh telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei, tet pouh telah ati.
