< Ezekiel 44 >

1 Then [in the vision] the man brought me back to the outer entryway to the temple [area], the one on the east side, but the outer entrance was shut.
Hichun mipa chun polam kelkot nisolam ngatna kihoi laiya chun eihin nung puilut kit in ahileh kelkot chu ana kikhah chah tai.
2 Yahweh said to me, “This entrance must remain shut. It must not be opened [by anyone]; no one will be permitted to enter it. It must remain shut because [I], Yahweh, the God of Israel, have [caused it to be sacred by] entering through it.
Hichun Pakaiyin kajah a hiche kelkot hi kikhah jing ding kihong kit lou hel ding chule
3 Only the king [of Israel] will be permitted to sit inside this entryway to eat food in the presence of Yahweh. But he will must enter and leave [the temple area] through the entry room of this entryway.”
Mihem in jong lutna anei louhel ding ahi. Ijeh inem itile hiche kelkot a hi Pakai Israel Pathen hung lutna ahitai. Hijeh a chu a itih a kikhah jing ding ahitai. Lengpa chapa changseh bou chu asunga touva Pakai angsunga an aga neh ding ahi. Ahinlah amachu hiche hongcha lampia kotpia chu lutna chule potna jong anei ding ahi.
4 Then the man brought me through the north entryway to the front of the temple. I looked and saw that the glory of Yahweh filled his temple, and I prostrated myself on the ground.
Hichun mipa chun houin mai sahlang kelkotna kon chun eihin puilutne. Keiman kaven ahile Pakai loupina Pakai houin dimsetna aum chu kamui. Hichun keiman kamai tolla kasulut tai.
5 Yahweh said to me, “You human, look carefully, and listen carefully to everything that I tell you about all the regulations concerning the temple. Note carefully the temple entrance and all the exits.
Chuleh Pakaiyin kahenga aseijin, mihem chapa hetsahna hi chingthei tah in melchih in. Namit leh nanakhang mangchan lang thil jouse ngaijin. Keiman Pathen houin chondan hohi kaseipeh ding nahi. Houin lutna leh potna aum ding dan ho chingthei tah in melchih in.
6 Say this to the rebellious Israeli people: ‘This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: You Israeli people, I will no longer endure the detestable things that you do!
Chuleh hiche doumah bol Israel mite khu hiche thaneitah Pakai thusei hi seipeh in. O Israel mipite! Kidah dah um chonset nabol u chu phatante.
7 In addition to all the other detestable things that you do, you brought into my temple foreign men who had not been circumcised and who were godless [IDM]. By doing that, you caused my temple to be an unacceptable place to worship me, while you offered food and fat and blood, and you disobeyed my agreement with you.
Pathenna dinga lungthim neilou mite, cheptan lou gamdang mite chu kamun, thingphung nahin puilut uva, hiti hin ka houin nasuboh un chule kaneh ding an jong chu nasuboh tha ji tauve. Athau chule kilhaina thisan ho pumin kidah dah umna chonsetnau ho keuseh hilouvin keima kitepna ho nasukeh be nalai juve.
8 Instead of doing what I commanded you to do in regard to my holy things, you appointed foreigners to be in charge of my temple.
Kachon dan thengho nitding khellin kamun theng vettup dingin gamdang miho chu nathalah tauve.
9 But this is what [I], Yahweh, have said: No foreigners, no men who are not circumcised, no godless people are permitted to enter my temple, not even foreigners who live among you [Israelis permanently].
Hijeh a chu hichehi thaneitah Pakai thusei ahi. Cheptan lou chule Pakai koma kipeh dohna neilou Israel te lah a chengsa ho jeng jong koima kamuntheng phunga lut theilou hel diu ahi.
10 [Most of] the descendants of Levi abandoned me along with [most of] the Israeli people, and started to worship idols. They must be punished for their sin.
Chuleh Levi phunga mipa te milim doi hou dinga keija konna achemang laijuva eidalha ho, akitah lou nau dungjuija akipoh diu ahi.
11 They are [still] permitted to work in my temple and to be in charge of the entrances of the temple, and they are permitted to slaughter the animals that will be completely burned on the altar, and [to burn other] sacrifices for the people, and they will [be able to] help the people.
Amaho chu houin veng tupma pang chuleh kelkot ngah a pang chuleh pumgo thilto dinga hung kichoi ganchaho that in pang uhenlang chuleh mipi ho kithopi in pang jong leu
12 But because they helped the people to worship idols and caused [many of] the Israeli people [MTY] to sin [by worshiping idols], I have lifted up my arm and solemnly declared that they must be punished for their sin.
Ahijeng vang'in amahon kamite chu milim doi hou dingin ana tilkhou jiuvinm Israel techu chonsetna thuhtah in alhuhsah jiuve. Hijeh chun keiman kihahselna dettah in kaneijin hijeh a chu amahon achonset nau ga chu akipoh cheh diu ahi, tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije.
13 They must not come near me to serve as priests. They must not come near any sacred things or the holy offerings. They must be ashamed of the shameful things that they did.
Amahon thempu khat hina a kakin bol dinga eihin nailut louhel dingu ahi. Amahon kathil thengho khat atohkhah theilou diu, ahilouleh thilto thengho jong chu athamkhah theilou diu ahi. Ijeh inem itile kidah dah uma chonset nau anabol dohsa hou jouse jachatna chu akipoh diu ahi.
14 But I will still put them in charge of the work in the temple and allow them to do all the work that needs to be done there.
Amaho chun houin phat chomkhat a dinga vaihoma pang diu, vettupma natoh ho a mopona anei diu chule lhangpia natoh jouse jong atoh dingu ahi.
15 But [most of] the priests who are descendants of Levi and from the clan of Zadok worked in my temple when the [other] Israelis abandoned me. [So they] are permitted to come near to me to work for me. They will stand in my presence to offer [sacrifices of animals’] fat and blood.
Itihen lang hijongleh Zadok insung miten Levi themput dolla Israel insung miten milim doi hou dinga adalhah nung uva houin a kitah tah lim aboljiu ahi. Hiche miho hi lhacha natoh a kakin abol diu ahi. Amaho chu kalanga dinguva chuleh kilhaina thisanna atodoh diu ahi tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije.
16 They [are the only ones who] are permitted to enter my temple. They are [the only ones who are] permitted to come near my altar to serve me and do what I tell them to do.
Amaho bou chu kamun theng phunga hunglut uva chuleh ka thempu kin bol dinga ka dokhang ahin nailut dingu ahi. Amahon kangaichat jouse eisuh bulhit peh diu ahi.
17 When they enter [one of] the entrances into the inner courtyard, they must wear linen clothes. They must not wear any clothes [made] of wool while they do their work at the entrances of the inner courtyard or inside [the temple].
Amaho thutanna insung kotpi ahung lut teng uleh amahon tupat ponnem bou akivon diu ahi. Amahon thutanna insunga na atoh tengu leh samul pon akisil theilou diu, ahilouleh houin sunga atoh teng uleh
18 They must have linen turbans [wrapped] around their heads and wrap linen undergarments around their waists. They must not wear anything that would cause them to perspire.
Amahon tupat ponnem aluva delkop akikop diu chuleh tupat ponnem von sungnung a akivon diu ahi. Amahon tiul kaina thei imacha akivon lou diu ahi.
19 Before they go out into the outer courtyard where [other] people are, they must take off the clothes that they have been wearing and leave them in the sacred rooms, and they must put on other clothes, in order that the other people are not punished because of [their touching] the sacred clothes.
Amaho thutanna in polanga akile doh uva mipi kititna mun alhun teng uleh akinbol nauva akivon hou chu akisut lhah diu ahi. Amahon avon hou chu indan theng sungnunga akikoi diu chule hiche vonna konna midang ho thenna apohlut khumuva akichat sahna lou diuva von dang akivon diu ahi.
20 The priests must not shave their heads or allow their hair to become long; but they must regularly trim [the edges of] their hair.
Amahon alujang sam akivo tol lou diu, chujongleh ahoi sau behseh lou diu hiche ho khella chu akisuh jol jing diu ahi.
21 Priests must not drink wine before they enter the inner courtyard.
Thutanna sungnung alut masang uva athempu hon ju adon theilou diu ahi.
22 [Also], priests must not marry widows [of men who were not priests] or women who have been divorced. [Priests are permitted to marry only] Israeli [MTY] virgins or widows of [other] priests.
Amahon aji diu chu Israel sunga nungah thengho bou akilhen diu, ahilouleh thempu ji hisa meithai ho akilhen diu ahi. Amahon meithai dang leh akidasa numei akilhen theilou diu ahi.
23 Priests must teach the people the difference between things that are holy/sacred and things that are not, and they must teach them the difference between things that are acceptable to me and things that are not.
Amahon kamite thiltheng leh athenglou chuleh hou chondan na atheng leh athenglou ipi ham ti ahil diu ahi.
24 When there are disputes [between people], the priests are the ones who must be the judges and decide according to my laws what must be done. They must obey all my laws and decrees concerning the sacred festivals, and they must keep my Sabbath days (holy/set apart).
Amahon kamite lah a lunggel kitolouna aum tengleh asuhchamna dinga thutanna pang diu ahi. Athutan lhah nau chu ka chondan ho toh kitoh a atan diu ahi. Chuleh thempu ho amaho tah in kahilna ho leh kathupeh hohi kut theng hochu kut abol chanuva kut abol diu, chule ka cholngah nikho ho jouse jong athenga anit jing dingu ahi.
25 A priest is permitted to go near the corpse of his father or his mother or his son or his daughter or his brother or his unmarried sister; but he is still defiled by doing that. But a priest must not defile himself by going near a corpse of anyone else.
Thempu khat chu ama leh ama thilong phunga chea kisuboh lou ding ahi. Amavang ijemtia athi chu apa ham, anu ham, acha ham, asopipa ham, ahilouleh jinei loulai asopinu ham ahileh vang hitobang ho chunga vang chu phal ahi.
26 But [even] if a priest touches the corpse [of a close relative, he must perform the rituals to become acceptable to serve me again]. After he performs those rituals, he must wait seven days.
Hiche jeng jong chu hou chondan ho a akisuh theng jou chule ni sagi anga a chujou teng leh houin kin bol dinga kile thei ding ahi.
27 Then, on the day that he enters the inner courtyard [again] to serve me in the temple, he must give an offering to remove his guilt for his sin. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.
Nikho masa pen nia thutanana insung nung leh muntheng phunga alutna chuleh naotng ding ahung kile tengleh ama a ding monga chonset thilto anei ding ahi tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije.
28 The priests are not permitted to own any property. They will have only what I [provide for them].
Thempu khat chun gou akhol lou diu ahilouleh gamtum anei lou diu ahi. Ijeh inem itile keima changseh hi amaho dinga gotchom beh bou chu kahi.
29 They will eat the offerings [other people make] from grain, offerings to remove people’s guilt for having sinned, and offerings made when people fail to give to Yahweh the things that they are required to give. Everything [else] in Israel that is completely dedicated to [me], Yahweh, will belong to the priests.
Amaho anneh ding chu mipi hon houin athilpeh hou leh kilhaina ahinpoh hou jouse chang thilto chonset thilto chuleh themmo thilto ho jouse a konna hung diu ahi. Ipi hijongleh mikhat in Pakaija ding asekhen tapou thempu ho chan ding ahi.
30 The best fruits of the first part of each harvest and all the [other] special gifts that are given to me will belong to the priests. You must give them the first part of your finely-ground flour, in order that I will bless [the people who live in] [MTY] your houses.
Thingga min masa jouse chule Pakaija dinga thilpeh hung kipolut jouse chu thempu ho koma cheding ahi. Tohga masa pen ho chule na changbong masa pen ho jong chu thempu ho kipe ding ahi. Chutileh na in chu phatthei kiboh ding ahi tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije.
31 Priests must not eat the flesh of any bird or animal that was found dead or that has been killed by wild animals.’”
Thempuhon vacha sa ahilouleh gancha moh thi a thi, ahilouleh ganhing dangin adella atha ho chu aneh theilou diu ahi.
