Ezekiel 38
1 Yahweh gave me another message. He said to me,
BOEIPA ol kai taengah ha pawk tih,
2 “You human, turn and face Magog, the country where Gog [is the king]. He is [also] the ruler of [the nations of] Meshech and Tubal. Prophesy about [the terrible things that will happen to] him,
“Hlang capa aw Meshek neh Tubal lu kah khoboei, Magog khohmuen kah Gog te na maelhmai khueh thil lamtah anih te tonghma thil lah.
3 and say, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: Gog, you who rule Meshech and Tubal, I am opposed to you.
Te vaengah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he thui pah. Meshek neh Tubal lu kah khoboei Gog nang te kam pai thil coeng he.
4 [It will be as though] I will turn you around and put hooks in your jaws and bring you [to Israel]—you and all of your army, [including your] horses and men carrying weapons who ride the horses, and many other soldiers carrying large shields and small shields, all of them carrying swords.
Nang te kam mael sak vetih na kam ah thisum kan dueh ni. Namah neh na caem boeih, marhang neh amih pueinak aka soep marhang caem boeih, photlinglen neh photlingca aka hlangping a yet khaw, amih cunghang aka muk boeih khaw ka khuen ni.
5 [Armies from] Persia, Ethiopia, and Put/Libya will also come, all of them with shields and helmets.
Persia, Kusah neh, Put loh amih taengah a pum la photling neh lumuek a mukuh.
6 An army from Gomer [north of Israel] will come, and an army from Togarmah far north [of Israel] will come. Armies of many nations will accompany you.’
Gomer neh a caembong boeih, tlangpuei tlanghlaep kah Togarmah imkhui neh a caembong boeih neh na taengah pilnam khaw muep omuh.
7 [Tell Gog, ] ‘Get ready and be prepared to be the commander of all those groups of soldiers.
Namah ham te cikngae rhoe cikngae saeh. Namah neh na hlangping boeih loh nang taengah aka tingtun. Tedae amamih te thongim la poeh bitni.
8 At some future time, I will command you to lead those armies to attack [Israel], a country whose [buildings] have been rebuilt after [they were destroyed in] wars. Their people will have been brought back from many nations [to live again] on the hills of Israel, which had been deserted for a long time. They had been brought back from [other] nations and will be living peacefully.
A tue a sen phoeiah na cawh ngawn ni. Hmailong kum ah tah cunghang lamkah aka mael loh khohmuen la na pawk ni. Pilnam lamloh Israel tlang la pawk tingtun uh ni. Te ah te imrhong bangla puet om uh cakhaw pilnam lamloh a khuen tih ngaikhuek la boeih kho a sak uh.
9 You and all those armies from many nations will go up to Israel, advancing like [SIM] a big storm. Your army will be like a huge cloud that covers the land.
Khohli rhamrhael bangla na cet vetih khohmuen te thing ham cingmai bangla na pawk ni. Te vaengah namah khaw na caembong boeih neh na taengkah pilnam hlangping neh na om ni.
10 But this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: On that day, you will have an idea about [DOU] doing an evil thing.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Te khohnin ah tah na thinko ah ol ha cuen vetih kopoek thae te na moeh ni.
11 You will say [to yourself], “My [army] will invade a country where the villages do not have walls around them. We will attack people who are peaceful and do not suspect/think [that they will be attacked]. Their towns and villages do not have walls with gates and bars.
Te vaengah, 'Khohmuen vongah te ka paan vetih amih ngaikhuek la kho aka sa boeih te a mong la ka pawk bitni. Vongtung om mueh la kho a sak uh tih thohkalh neh thohkhaih khaw amih taengah om pawh,’ na ti bitni.
12 So [it will be easy for] us to attack the people who are living again in those towns that were previously destroyed. They are people who have been gathered from many countries [where they had lived for many years], people who now live safely in their land with all their livestock and other possessions. They are living in the country that is in the middle of the most important countries (OR, [that they think is] [IRO] the most important country) in the world. Our soldiers will take away [DOU] all their valuable possessions.”
Kutbuem la buem ham neh maeh la poelyoe ham, imrhong kah khosa taengah neh pilnam taengah na kut thuung ham, boiva aka khueh namtom neh diklai laklung ah khosa rhoek kah hnopai te coi ham om.
13 [Then people of] Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish and nearby villages will come and say to you, “Are you gathering all your soldiers in order to [attack Israel and] take away all their silver and gold? [Do you plan] to take away their livestock and all their other valuable possessions [DOU]?”’
Sheba neh Dedan khaw, Tarshish kah aka thenpom neh a sathuengca boeih loh nang taengah, 'Nang tah kutbuem buem ham maco na pawk? Maeh la poelyoe ham bal maco? Cak neh sui phuei ham, boiva loh ham neh hnopai te kutbuem muep buem ham ni na hlangping na tingtun sak,’ a ti uh ni.
14 Therefore, you human, prophesy about Gog and say to him, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: At that time, when my people of Israel are living safely, you will certainly think about that.
Te dongah hlang capa aw tonghma lamtah Gog te thui pah. Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Te khohnin ah ka pilnam Israel loh ngaikhuek la kho a sak vaengkah te na ming mahpawt nim.
15 So you will come from your place far north [of Israel], with the armies of many [other] nations, all riding horses, a huge army.
Na tlangpuei tlanghlaep lamkah namah hmuen lamloh na pawk vetih na taengah pilnam khaw yet ni. Amih boeih tah marhang dongah hlangping tanglue neh tatthai boeiping la ngol uh.
16 You will march toward my Israeli people, and [your soldiers] will cover the land like a huge cloud. Gog, I will bring your army to attack the country that belongs to me, but [what I do] for you will show the people of other nations that I am holy.
Cingmai loh diklai a thing bangla ka pilnam Israel te na paan ni. Hmailong khohnin ah ha thoeng bitni. Nang te ka khohmuen la kam pawk sak daengah ni namtom loh kai he m'ming eh. Gog nang lamloh amih mikhmuh ah ka ciim uh pueng ni.
17 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say to Gog: In past years, when I gave messages to my servants, the prophets [in Israel], there were messages [RHQ] about you. At that time, they prophesied for [many] years that I would bring your [armies] to attack my people.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Yan khohnin ah ka sal Israel kah tonghma rhoek kut ah ka voek te nang pai a? Nang te amih taengla khuen ham a kum khohnin neh ana tonghma uh.
18 [So] this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say will happen: When your [army] attacks Israel, I will be very angry with you.
Te khohnin ah tah Gog loh Israel khohmuen a paan khohnin te om ni. He tah Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni. Ka kosi he ka thintoek ah ni a phoe eh.
19 I will be very furious, and to show that I am angry, there will be a great earthquake in Israel, [where your armies will be].
Ka thatlainah neh, ka thinpom hmai neh ka thui coeng. Te khohnin ah Israel khohmuen he lingluei muep om het mahpawt nim?
20 The fish in the sea, the birds, the wild animals, and the animals/creatures that crawl on the ground, and all the people on the earth will tremble because of what I [am doing]. Mountains will fall down, cliffs will crumble, and walls everywhere will fall to the ground.
Tuipuei nga rhoek neh vaan kah vaa khaw, khohmuen mulhing neh diklai ah aka colh rhulcai boeih, diklai maelhmai kah hlang boeih khaw ka mikhmuh ah hinghuen uh ni. Tlang rhoek te koengloeng uh vetih longpoeng rhoek khaw cungku uh ni. Vongtung boeih khaw diklai la cungku ni.
21 Gog, on all the mountains in the country that belongs to me I will cause your soldiers to fight against each other with their swords.
Anih te ka tlang tom ah cunghang ka khue thil ni. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni. Hlang kah cunghang loh a manuca a cuk thil ni.
22 I will punish [MTY] you [and your soldiers] with plagues and murders [MTY]. And I will send down [from the sky], on you and your troops that have come from many nations, huge amounts of rain and hail and burning sulfur.
Anih soah duektahaw neh thii neh khonal aka long neh rhael lung hmai neh lai ka tloek ni. Amah so neh a caembong soah khaw a taengkah pilnam boeiping soah kat ka tlan sak ni.
23 By doing that, I will cause [the people of] many nations to know that I am very great and holy, and they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do the things that I say that I will do].’”
Ka pantai tih ka ciim uh phoeiah namtom boeiping mikhmuh ah ka phoe vaengah kai he BOEIPA la a ming uh ni.
