< Ezekiel 22 >
1 Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
Tun Pakaija konna thu kisei kahenga ahung lhunge:
2 “You human, are you ready to condemn the people of Jerusalem? It is [RHQ] a city full of murderers [MTY]. Remind them of all the detestable things that they have done.
“Mihem chapa, Jerusalem thutan dinga nakigot jou hitam? Hiche tolthatte khopi thutan dinga nakigot hitam? Kidah dah um achonsetna ho khu japi masanga phondoh pehsoh hellin.
3 [Then] say, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: By your murdering people and by (defiling yourselves/making yourselves unacceptable to God) by making idols, you people of this city [APO] have brought to yourselves the time when you [will be destroyed].
Chule thaneitah pakaija kon hiche thu amanu khu gapen: O tolthat khopi, manthahna ke mochanna milim doi dimsetna khopi, anen leh anamse
4 You have become guilty by doing both of those things [DOU]. You have brought to an end your time [to remain alive] [DOU]. Therefore I will cause you to become a group whom the [people of other] nations will scorn; they will all laugh at you [DOU].
Nathisanso jeh a themmo chang nahi. Nangma namilim doi sem ho jeh a kisuboh nahi. Namanthahna nikho chu hung lhung ahitai. Nakum kichaina chu nalhun ahitai.
5 People in countries that are near you and people who live far from you will make fun of you, because your city is full of lawless people and full of confusion.
O minse khopi! Nohphah na a dimset, nanghi agamla leh anaija miho jouse tot nopna nahung hi tei ding ahitai.
6 Think about how each of your Israeli kings have used their power to cause people to be murdered [MTY].
Israel sunga lamkai ho jouse nakulpi sunga chengho jouse chu tolthat kun cheh ahiuve.
7 Your people do not respect/honor their parents; they have oppressed foreigners; they mistreat orphans and widows.
Mipate lhe minu teho kimusit a kilhemto cheh ahiuve. Gamchom miho jong chu namna a avengtup diu akikoiju ngai ahitai. Chagate leh meithai ho jong dan dihlou vin akibol in, chuleh genthei akithoh sah uve.
8 You despise my sacred places and (dishonor/do not respect) the Sabbath days.
Nangin kathil thengho ijan neise peh pon, chuleh ka cholngah nikhon cholngah ni jong nasukeh uve.
9 Among you are men who tell lies in order to cause others to be executed [MTY]. There are those who [food offered to idols] at the hilltop [shrines], and they perform disgusting sexual acts.
Miho chun midang khat chu dihlou tah in themmo achanin chule amaho chu athina diu munna chun asol jiuve. Nangla namilim doihou chule thilphalou bol nadimset uve.
10 There are men who have sex with their father’s wives [EUP], and men who have sex with women during their monthly menstrual periods.
Pasal ho chu apa jinu toh alum khomun, chule numei athilon pet jong akitimat piuve.
11 There are men who have sex with someone else’s wife. Some men have sex with their daughters-in-law or with their sisters or half-sisters.
Nakulpi sunga chun pasal ho chu a inhengpa jinu toh ajongun ahi. Khat chun amounu asuboh in, khat kit ma chun asopinu khel khel jong ada achamlouvin aluppin ahi.
12 There are among you men who accept bribes in order to cause someone to be executed [MTY]. You charge high interest when you lend people money. You become rich by forcing people to give you money. [the worst thing is that] you have forgotten me, Yahweh the Lord.
Hicheho hi tolthat ding kigo sumpa homma dan dihlou sumhol, muntinna mi nei lahpeh in aume. Aman keima mong mong eigelpha tapouvin, chuleh kathupeh ho jong ahepha tapouve.
13 So I will shake my fists at you to show that I am angry with you because of your stealing money from people and murdering [MTY] people who live among you.
Ahinlah tua hi keiman nalung thim thenlouna leh nathisan so hatna jeh a vetda naum na chunga kakhut teni kabeh ding ahi.
14 When I [punishing] you, you will no longer [RHQ] be courageous/brave [DOU]. I, Yahweh, have said [what I will do to you], and I will do it.
Nachung thu kitan niteng ichan thahatna hia chule hangsan tah le kichatna beihel nah idem? Keima, Pakaiyin kasei ahi. Chuleh keiman kaseisa chu kabol ding ahi.
15 I will cause you to be scattered among many nations [DOU], and I will cause you to stop your sinful behavior.
Keiman namtin vaipi ho lah a kathu thethanga chule nagitlouna jousea kasuhtheng ding nahi.
16 When [the people of other] nations see that you have been humiliated, you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
Nangho jeh a namtin vaipi jouse lah a jabolna beija kahung um teng leh keima hi Pakai kahi ti neihin hetdoh ding ahi.
17 Yahweh [also] said to me,
Hichun Pakaija konin hiche thuhi kahenga ahung lhunge:
18 “You human, your Israeli people [MTY] have [useless] to me. They are [like] [MET] dross/slag to me. They are like [SIM] [worthless] copper, tin, iron, and lead that remains after silver is melted in [very hot] furnace.
Mihem chapa, Israelte hi dangka kisol nunga thih eh panna neilou bep ahiuve. Amaho hi thih eh kidalha hah, tin thih chule ngenthih kihal panna bei ahiuve.
19 Therefore, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: Because you have all become [like] dross/slag, I will gather you in Jerusalem.
Hijeh chun, amaho chu seipeh in, hiche hi Pakai thusei ahi. Nangho Jerusalema patepna hoise tah kapuilut ding nahi.
20 People [ore containing] silver, copper, iron, lead, and tin in a [very hot] furnace and melt them in a blazing [to burn up the impurities]. Similarly [SIM], I will gather you [inside Jerusalem], and because I am very angry with you, [what I will do will be as though] I am melting you.
Thuhkhuh lentah a hah, thih, ngen chule tinho kisong jol banga kason jol ding nahi. Kalungsatna meikouva kason jol ding nahi.
21 [It will be as though] I will blow on you with a hot breath that shows that I am very angry, [it will be as though] you will be melted,
Keiman nangho kapui khomuva chule kalung hanna meikou chu kasemlut khum diu nahi.
22 as though you will be melted like [SIM] silver is melted in a furnace, and then you will know that I, Yahweh, have poured out my punishment [MTY] on you.”
Chutia chu nangho danka banga naki song jol diu ahi. Hiteng chuleh nanghon kalung hanna chung uva keima Pakaiyin kasunlhah khumu ahi chu nahin hetdoh dingu ahi.
23 Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
Pakaija konin kahenga thukhat ahung lhung kitne:
24 “You human, say to the Israeli people, ‘[Yahweh] is angry with you, there has been no rain or showers in your country.’
“Mihem chapa, hiche thuhi Israel mite pen. Vetda a naum lai nikho sunga hi akisubohsa gam, gojuh louna gam tobang hiding ahi.
25 Your leaders are like [SIM] lions that tear apart the animals that they have killed. Your leaders destroy their people. They steal treasures and [other] valuable things from people, and they cause many women to become [by murdering their husbands].
Naleng chapateu chu guhtima thildih gongho lah a ajauvun keipin aneh ding sa agep bangin avah leuve. Mona neilou miho aval lhumuve. Gou kikholho leh gouthil mantam ho alahpeh uva amhon gamsunga mitamtah meithai asosah tauve.
26 Their priests disobey my laws and disrespect my sacred things by saying that there is no difference between things that are sacred and those that are not sacred, and by ignoring my laws about honoring the Sabbath days. As a result, they no [longer] honor me.
Nathempu houvin kahilna ho asuseuvin, chule kathil thengho asuboh tauve. Amahon ipi chu thil theng hija ipi chu athenglou ham ti akikhetsah pouve. Hou thua chondan theng leh athenglou kikah a akibah louna jong kamite ahil pouve. Kachol nikho jong adonse pouvin hijeh chun amaho lah a jabol louvin kaum lotai.
27 Their officials are like [SIM] wolves that tear apart the animals that they have killed: They murder people [DOU] in order to get their money.
Nalamkai teho'u chu athasa bottle tel jeng ngeiho tobang ahiuve. Amahon mihem tamtah hinkho sum jeh in asumang tauve.
28 Their prophets, by falsely saying they have received [from God], and by giving false messages, try to (cover up [MET]/say that it is all right to commit) those sins. They say, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says,’ when I have said nothing to them.
Chule na themgao hou jong gaothil mu dihlou vin akisel un, miho dingin ajou jouvun phun asan peh uve. Amahon kathusei hi thaneitah Pakaija kon ahi atiuve, Pakaiyin bon amaho a koma thu sei khalou hella.
29 The Israeli people force others to give them money, and they rob people. They oppress poor [DOU] people, and they mistreat foreigners among them by not treating them [in the courts].
Milham ho jengin jong vaichate abol gentheijun, genthei te achomun, gamdang miho chu anei agou alahpeh jiuve.
30 I looked among them to find a man who would cause the people of the city to repent [MET] so that I would not need to get rid of them. But I did not find anyone.
Keiman agamsung huhna ding chonphatna kulbang gen pha ding mikhat tou aumdem tin kavelen ahi. Keiman agamsung kasuh mang louna dinga a onglai bang kah a ding ding mikhat tou aum dem tin kaholle, ahivangin khatcha kamudoh poi.
31 So because I am very angry with them, I will severely punish them [MTY] for [all] the wicked things that they have done. [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh the Lord, have said it.”
Hijeh a chu tua hi keiman kalungsatna achung'uva kasunlhah khum diu, kalung hanna meikonga kahalvam diu ahi. Achonsetnau jeh a achung'uva achiana gimbolna aluchung uva kaset khum peh diu ahi tin thaneitah Pakai keiman kasei ahi.”
