< Ezekiel 21 >

1 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk tih,
2 "Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and speak against the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel;
“Hlang capa, na maelhmai te Jerusalem la khueh lah. Te phoeiah rhokso te cip thil lamtah Israel khohmuen te tonghma thil laeh.
3 and tell the land of Israel, 'Thus says the LORD: "Look, I am against you, and will draw forth my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.
Te vaengah Israel khohmuen te thui pah. BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Kai loh ka cunghang a capang lamloh nang kam bong thil vetih nang lamkah aka dueng neh aka halang khaw ka saii pawn ni.
4 Seeing then that I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the Negev to the north:
Ka cunghang he a capang lamloh thoeng tangloeng vetih nang lamkah pumsa hlang boeih tah aka dueng khaw, aka halang khaw tuithim lamloh tlangpuei due ka saii ni.
5 and all flesh shall know that I, the LORD, have drawn forth my sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more."'
Te vaengah kai BOEIPA loh ka cunghang a capang lamloh ka bong phoeiah koep ka sang pawt te pumsa hlang boeih loh a ming uh ni.
6 "Sigh therefore, you son of man; with the breaking of your thighs and with bitterness you will sigh before their eyes.
Te dongah hlang capa nang te cinghen a khaemnah hil huei lamtah hmuetphawt neh amih mikhmuh ah huei pah.
7 It shall be, when they tell you, 'Why do you sigh?' that you shall say, 'Because of the news, for it comes; and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: look, it comes, and it shall be done, says the LORD.'"
Nang te, 'Balae tih na huei,’ a ti vaengah, 'Olthang ha pawk dongah ni, 'ti nah. Te vaengah lungbuei boeih paci vetih kut khaw boeih tahah ni. Mueihla boeih ueih vetih khuklu boeih tui la poeh ni. Ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong tah ha pawk tih om coeng ke,” a ti.
8 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
BOEIPA ol tah kai taengah koep ha pawk tih,
9 "Son of man, prophesy, and say, 'Thus says the LORD: Say, "A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, and also furbished;
“Hlang Capa aw tonghma lamtah thui laeh. 'Boeipa loh he ni a thui, cunghang te cunghang haat la huen laeh,’ ti nah.
10 it is sharpened that it may make a slaughter; it is furbished that it may be as lightning: shall we then make mirth? The rod of my son, it condemns every tree.
Rhaek la a om due a haat la a huen daengah ni maeh khaw a ngawn eh. Thing cungkuem aka sit ka capa kah mancai te ngaingaih puei sih.
11 It is given to be furbished, that it may be handled: the sword, it is sharpened, yes, it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the killer."'
Huen ham neh a kut dongah pom ham a paek dongah cunghang haat coeng. Te dongah aka ngawn kut dongah paek ham a huen coeng.
12 Cry and wail, son of man; for it is on my people, it is on all the princes of Israel: they are delivered over to the sword with my people; strike therefore on your thigh.
Hlang capa aw pang lamtah rhung laeh. Ka pilnam neh Israel khoboei boeih te a om thil coeng. Ka pilnam neh aka om khaw cunghang dongla a voeih coeng. Te dongah na hlit te tum laeh.
13 For there is a trial; and what if even the rod that condemns shall be no more?" says the LORD.
Loepdak ngawn cakhaw mancai te sawtsit koinih ta? om khueng mahpawh. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni.
14 "You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and strike your hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the deadly wounded: it is the sword of the great one who is deadly wounded, which enters into their rooms.
Te dongah hlang capa nang tonghma lamtah kut neh kut ngawn laeh. cunghang khaw a pathum la rhaep laeh. Amih te aka ngawn kah cunghang soah aka ngawn cunghang loh vael khungdaeng saeh.
15 I have set the threatening sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied: Ah. It is made as lightning, it is pointed for slaughter.
Te daengah ni lungbuei paci vetih a vongka tom ah hmuitoel khaw a suplup eh. Anunae Maeh sah ham khopha bangla a saii tih a hnut cunghang hmui kang khueh coeng.
16 'Gather yourselves together, go to the right, set yourselves in array, go to the left, wherever your face is set.'
Saih lamtah bantang phai, melam khaw na maelhmai te banvoei la khueh lamtah tuentah uh.
17 I will also strike my hands together, and I will cause my wrath to rest: I, the LORD, have spoken it."
Kai khaw ka kut neh ka kut te ka ngawn daengah ni ka kosi ka hlam eh. He tah BOEIPA kamah long ni ka thui,” a ti.
18 The word of the LORD came to me again, saying,
Te phoeiah BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk tih,
19 "Also, you son of man, appoint two ways that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; they both shall come forth out of one land: and mark out a place, mark it out at the head of the way to the city.
“Nang hlang capa aw Babylon manghai kah cunghang ha pawk ham longpuei rhoi te namah loh khueh laeh. Khohmuen pakhat lamloh ha thoeng rhoi saeh lamtah khopuei longpuei longcui ah kutngo suen la suen saeh.
20 You shall appoint a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the people of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem, the fortified.
cunghang ha pawk ham longpuei te Ammon koca Rabbah taengah khaw, Judah taeng neh Jerusalem vong cak taegnah khaw khueh pah.
21 For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination: he shook the arrows back and forth, he consulted the teraphim, he looked in the liver.
Babylon manghai te longpuei caehtung kah longpuei longcoi rhoi ah bihma bi sak ham om ni. Te vaengah thaltang dongah a tap phoeiah sithui te a dawt vetih a thin duela a hmuh ni.
22 In his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, to build forts.
Tedae bihma tah Jerusalem te maehdoelh la khueh ham, ngawnkung taengah a ka ang sak ham, tamlung ol huel ham, vongka ah maehdoelh khueh ham, tanglung lun ham neh buep khoeng ham a bantang la a om pah ni.
23 It shall be to them as a false divination in their sight, who have sworn oaths to them; but he brings iniquity to memory, that they may be taken.
Tedae amih taengah a bi khaw, amih mikhmuh ah a poeyoek la a bi bangla om ni. Amih taengah olhlo neh aka toemngam khaw thaesainah tuuk pah ham aka poek ni te.
24 "Therefore thus says the LORD: 'Because you have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your doings your sins appear; because you have come to memory, you shall be taken with the hand.
Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Nangmih te namamih kathaesainah poek sak ham, na boekoeknah hliphen ham, na tholhnah phoe ham, nangmih kah khoboe rhamlang boeih dongah nangmih thoelh ham a kut neh n'tuuk uh ni.
25 "'You, deadly wounded wicked one, the prince of Israel, whose day has come, in the time of the iniquity of the end,
Nang Israel khoboei hlang rhong neh halang aw, thaesainah a bawtnah tue kah a khohnin ha pawk coeng.
26 thus says the LORD: "Remove the turban, and take off the crown; this shall be no more the same; exalt that which is low, and abase that which is high."
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Lupong te pit lamtah rhuisam khaw dul laeh. Te tlam moenih. Aka toem he sang tih aka sang te a kunyun sak.
27 I will overturn, overturn, overturn it: this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.'
Paletnah, paletnah, paletnah te ka khueh ni. Laitloeknah te anih taengla a pawk due he khaw om pawt vetih anih te ka paek ni.
28 "You, son of man, prophesy, and say, 'Thus says the LORD concerning the people of Ammon, and concerning their reproach; and say, "A sword, a sword is drawn, for the slaughter it is furbished, to cause it to devour, that it may be as lightning;
Nang hlang capa tonghma lamtah thui pah. Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he Ammon koca neh amih kokhahnah kawng ni. Te dongah, “cunghang, cunghang te phong lamtah rhaek bangla maeh hlap ham huen laeh.
29 while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies to you, to lay you on the necks of the wicked who are deadly wounded, whose day has come in the time of the iniquity of the end.
Nang ham te a poeyoek la a hmuh tih nang te laithae neh halang rhok kah a rhawn ah voeih ham ni nang te m'bi. Thaesainah a bawtnah tue kah a khohnin ha pawk coeng.
30 Cause it to return into its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your birth, will I judge you.
A capang khui la sang laeh. Na suen nah hmuen kah namah tuikong khohmuen ah nang te lai kan tloek ni.
31 I will pour out my indignation on you; I will blow on you with the fire of my wrath; and I will deliver you into the hand of brutish men, skillful to destroy.
Nang soah ka kosi ka hawk vetih ka thinpom hmai neh nang kan sat thil ni. Nang te kutthai kut al hlang rhoek kut ah kutcaihnah la kan tloeng ni.
32 You shall be for fuel to the fire; your blood shall be in the midst of the land; you shall be remembered no more: for I, the LORD, have spoken it."'"
Hmai ham te toihthing la na poeh vetih na thii te khohmuen khui ah om ni. BOEIPA kamah loh ka thui coeng dongah nang m'poek uh mahpawh,” a ti.
