Ezekiel 33

1 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,

Angraeng ih lok kai khaeah angzoh,

2 "Son of man, speak to the children of your people, and tell them, 'When I bring the sword on a land, and the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman;

kami capa, nangmah ih acaengnawk khaeah lokthui ah, nihcae khaeah, prae maeto khaeah sumsen ka sinh naah, prae kaminawk mah misatoep kami maeto suem o nahaeloe,

3 if, when he sees the sword come on the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people;

to kami mah prae thungah angzo sumsen to hnuk naah, kaminawk acoe hanah, mongkah to ueng tih;

4 then whoever hears the sound of the trumpet, and doesn't take warning, if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be on his own head.

mi kawbaktih mah doeh mongkah lok to a thaih, toe acoe ai pongah sumsen mah a hinghaih to la ving nahaeloe, anih ih athii loe angmah lu nuiah krah let tih.

5 He heard the sound of the trumpet, and didn't take warning; his blood shall be on him; whereas if he had taken warning, he would have delivered his soul.

Mongkah lok to a thaih, toe acoe ai pongah, angmah ih athii loe angmah lu nuiah krah let tih. Toe acoehaih tawn kami loe a hinghaih to pahlong tih.

6 But if the watchman sees the sword come, and doesn't blow the trumpet, and the people aren't warned, and the sword comes, and take any person from among them; he is taken away in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand.'

Misatoep kami loe angzo sumsen to a hnuk, toe mongkah to ueng ai, kaminawk han acoehaih paek ai pongah, sumsen to angzo moe, kami maeto hinghaih to la nahaeloe, to kami loe angmah zaehaih pongah hinghaih to lak ah oh, toe anih ih athii tho loe misatoep kami khaeah ka lak han, tiah thuih.

7 "So you, son of man, I have set you a watchman to the house of Israel; therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.

Aw kami capa, nang loe Israel imthung takhoh toepkung ah kang suek boeh; to pongah ka thuih ih lok hae tahngai ah loe, ka lok hoi nihcae to acoehaih paek ah.

8 When I tell the wicked, 'O wicked man, you shall surely die,' and you do not speak to warn the wicked from his way; that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at your hand.

Kahoih ai kami khaeah kaimah, Aw kami zae, nang loe na dueh tangtang tih, tiah ka thuih; to naah kahoih ai kami a caehhaih loklam hoi amlaem let hanah acoehaih na paek ai pongah, to kami zae to a zaehaih pongah dueh ving nahaeloe, a nih ih athi tho to na ban ah ka suk han.

9 Nevertheless, if you warn the wicked of his way to turn from it, and he doesn't turn from his way; he shall die in his iniquity, but you have delivered your soul.

Toe kami zae a caehhaih loklam hoi amlaem let hanah acoehaih lok na thuih pae to mah, a caehhaih loklam hoiah amlaem let ai, to naah anih loe a zaehaih pongah dueh ving nahaeloe, na hinghaih to na pahlong boeh.

10 "You, son of man, tell the house of Israel: 'Thus you speak, saying, "Our transgressions and our sins are on us, and we pine away in them; how then can we live?"'

To pongah kami capa, Israel imthung takoh khaeah, Aicae loe aimacae sakpazaehaih hoi zaehaih to a phawh o moe, tha a zok o nahaeloe, kawbangmaw a hing o thai tih? tiah thui paeh.

11 Tell them, 'As I live,' says the LORD, 'I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn, turn from your evil ways; for why will you die, house of Israel?'

Nihcae khaeah, Kai ka hing baktih toengah, kami zae duekhaih nuiah anghoehaih ka tawn ai, toe kami zae to a caehhaih loklam hoiah amlaem let moe, hinghaih hnuk pongah anghoehaih ka tawnh, tiah Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih; amlaem ah, kahoih ai na loklamnawk hoiah amlaem ah; Aw Israel imthung takoh, tipongah na duek han loe? tiah thui paeh.

12 "You, son of man, tell the children of your people, 'The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his disobedience; and as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turns from his wickedness; neither shall he who is righteous be able to live thereby in the day that he sins.'

To pongah kami capa, nangmah ih acaengnawk khaeah, Katoeng kami mah zaehaih sah let nahaeloe, canghni ih toenghaih mah anih to pahlong thai mak ai; kasae kami mah a sakpazaehaih to amlaem taak nahaeloe, canghni ih zaehaih mah anih to amtimsak mak ai; katoeng kami doeh zaehaih sah let nahaeloe, canghni ih toenghaih mah anih to hingsak thai mak ai.

13 When I say to the righteous "He shall surely live," but he trusts in his righteousness and commits iniquity, none of his righteous deeds shall be remembered; but he shall die because of the iniquity he has committed.

Kami katoeng khaeah, Anih loe hing tangtang tih, tiah ka thuih; toe anih loe a toenghaih to oep pongah, kahoih ai hmuen to sah nahaeloe, canghni ah a sak ih katoeng hmuen maeto mataeng doeh pakuem pae mak ai; anih loe a sak ih kasae hmuen pongah dueh tih.

14 Again, when I say to the wicked, 'You shall surely die'; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;

Kami zae khaeah, Nang loe na dueh tangtang tih, tiah ka naa; toe anih loe a zaehaih thung hoiah amlaem let moe, zaehoihhaih daan baktiah katoeng hmuen to a sak;

15 if the wicked restore the pledge, give again that which he had taken by robbery, walk in the statutes of life, committing no iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die.

kami zae mah kang paek let han hmang, tiah sak ih lokkamhaih baktiah anih mah coi ih hmuen to paek let, a paquk ih hmuen doeh a paek let moe, zaehaih sah ai ah hinghaih loklam to pazui nahaeloe, anih loe dueh mak ai, hing tangtang tih.

16 None of his sins that he has committed shall be remembered against him: he has done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.

A sak ih zaehaihnawk maeto doeh pakuem pae mak ai boeh; katoeng hmuen hoi zaehhoihaih daan baktiah hmuen to a sak boeh pongah, anih loe hing tangtang tih.

17 "Yet the children of your people say, 'The way of the LORD is not just': but as for them, their way is not just.

Toe nang ih acaengnawk mah, Angraeng lokcaekhaih loe toeng ai, tiah thuih o; toe nihcae lokcaekhaih ni toeng ai.

18 When the righteous turns from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, he shall even die in it.

Katoeng kami loe a toenghaih to caehtaak moe, hmuen kasae sah nahaeloe, anih loe a sak ih hmuen pongah dueh tih.

19 When the wicked turns from his wickedness, and does that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby.

Toe kami zae loe a zaehaih hoi amlaem moe, zaehhoihaih daan baktiah kahoih hmuen hoi katoeng hmuen to sah nahaeloe, a sak ih hmuen pongah anih loe hing tih.

20 Yet you say, 'The way of the LORD is not just.' House of Israel, I will judge every one of you after his ways."

Toe nangcae mah Sithaw lokcaekhaih loe toeng ai, tiah na thuih o; Aw Israel imthung takoh, kami boih a caeh o haih loklam baktih toengah lok ka caek han, tiah thuih, tiah thui paeh, tiah ang naa.

21 It happened in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth month, in the fifth day of the month, that one who had escaped out of Jerusalem came to me, saying, "The city has been struck."

Tamna ah ohhaih saning hathlai hnetto, krah hato haih, ni pangato naah, Jerusalem hoi loih kami maeto kai khaeah angzoh moe, vangpui loe amtimh boeh, tiah ang thuih.

22 Now the hand of the LORD had been on me in the evening, before he who was escaped came; and he had opened my mouth, until he came to me in the morning; and my mouth was opened, and I was no more mute.

To tiah kacawn kami to kai khae angzo ai na ih ani duembang ah, Angraeng ih ban ka nuiah oh; akhawnbang ah loe to kami to kai khaeah angzoh, to naah kai ih pakha ang paongh pae, to pongah kai ih pakha loe amongh, to naah kai loe lokaa ah ka om ai boeh.

23 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,

To naah Angraeng ih lok kai khaeah angzoh,

24 "Son of man, they who inhabit those waste places in the land of Israel speak, saying, 'Abraham was one, and he inherited the land: but we are many; the land is given us for inheritance.'

kami capa, kamro Israel prae ah kaom kaminawk mah, Abraham angmah khue mataeng doeh, prae to a toep; aicae loe a pop o parai, to pongah prae toep hanah aicae han paek boeh, tiah thuih o.

25 Therefore tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: "You eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes to your idols, and shed blood: and shall you possess the land?

To pongah nihcae khaeah, Angraeng Sithaw mah, Nangcae loe athii hoiah moi to na caak o, na sak o ih krangnawk na bok o moe, kami ih athii to na palong o, to tiah nahaeloe kawbangmaw prae to na toep o vop tih?

26 You stand on your sword, you work abomination, and every one of you defiles his neighbor's wife: and shall you possess the land?"'

Nangmacae ih sumsen pongah nam ha o moe, panuet thok hmuen to na sak o, na imtaeng kaminawk ih zu to na parueng pae o, to tiah nahaeloe kawbangmaw prae to na toep o thai vop tih? tiah thuih, tiah thui paeh, tiah ang naa.

27 "You shall tell them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "As I live, surely those who are in the waste places shall fall by the sword; and him who is in the open field will I give to the animals to be devoured; and those who are in the strongholds and in the caves shall die of the pestilence.

Angraeng Sithaw mah, Hae kaminawk khaeah, Kai ka hing baktih toengah, kamro prae thungah kaom kaminawk loe sumsen hoiah amtim o tih, azawn ah kaom kaminawk loe moi kasannawk ih rawkcak ah ka paek han, kacak sipae thung hoi thlung khaw thungah kaom kaminawk loe, kasae nathaih hoiah dueh o tih.

28 I will make the land a desolation and an astonishment; and the pride of her power shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, so that none shall pass through.

Kai mah prae to kanung aep ah ka pongsak sut moe, thacak anih amoekhaih to ka boengsak han; Israel ih maenawk loe pong o sut tih, mi doeh to ah caeh o mak ai boeh.

29 Then shall they know that I am the LORD, when I have made the land a desolation and an astonishment, because of all their abominations which they have committed."'

A sak o ih panuet thok hmuennawk pongah, prae to kanung aep ah ka pongsak sut naah, nihcae mah Kai loe Angraeng ni, tito panoek o tih, tiah thuih.

30 "As for you, son of man, the children of your people talk of you by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, everyone to his brother, saying, 'Please come and hear what is the word that comes forth from the LORD.'

To pacoengah Kami capa, nangmah ih acaengnawk mah, nang kawng to sipae hoi khongkhanawk taengah a thuih o, angmah ih nawkamya khaeah, Angraeng khae hoi angzo lok to tahngaih hanah angzo ah, tiah a naa o.

31 They come to you as the people come, and they sit before you as my people, and they hear your words, but do not do them; for with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goes after their gain.

Minawk mah sak o ih baktih toengah, kai ih kaminawk loe nang khaeah angzoh o, kai ih kaminawk baktiah na hmaa ah anghnut o moe, na lok to tahngai o, toe sah o mak ai; pakha hoiah amlunghaih to a thuih o, toe nihcae ih palung loe uthaih hoiah koi o.

32 Look, you are to them as a very lovely song of one who has a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument; for they hear your words, but they do not do them.

Khenah, nang loe nihcae hanah katoeng kruek kop, taaw kahoih kami maeto mah sak ih, koeh koi kaom laa baktiah na oh pae, nihcae loe na lok to thaih o, toe sah o ai.

33 When this comes to pass, (look, it comes), then shall they know that a prophet has been among them."

Toe hae baktih hmuennawk loe pha tangtang tih, to hmuennawk loktang ah phak naah loe khenah, angmacae salakah tahmaa oh vaih boeh, tito nihcae mah panoek o tih, tiah thuih.
