Ezekiel 20
1 It came about in the seventh year, on the tenth day of the fifth month, that elders of Israel came to inquire of Yahweh and sat before me.
Lengpa Jehoiachin sohchan kal kum sagi lhin kum August 14 nin, Israel lamkai ho phabep Pakaija kon thuseidoh nomin ahung uve. Amaho chu kamasanga atouvun adonbutna angah uve.
2 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Hichun Pakaija konin hiche thuhi kahenga ahung lhunge.
3 “Son of man, declare to the elders of Israel and say to them, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Have you come to inquire of me? As I live, I will not be inquired of by you!—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'
“Mihem chapa, hichehi thaneitah Pakai thusei ahi. ‘Nanghon iti dana keima thu neidoh ngammjeng uham? Keima kahing jinge tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije. Keiman nangho ima seipeh pouvinge’ tin Israel lamkai ho seipeh tan.
4 Will you judge them? Will you judge, son of man? Let them know about their fathers' abominations.
Mihem chapa, amaho dounan achungchang thu kisutna chu hin podoh in lang amaho chu themmo chan temin. Apu apateu kidah um umtah'a achonset nau khu geldohsah in.
5 Say to them, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: On the day that I chose Israel and raised my hand to swear an oath to the descendants of the house of Jacob, and made myself known to them in the land of Egypt, when I raised my hand to swear an oath to them. I said, “I am Yahweh your God”—
Pakaija kon hiche thu kisei hi amaho chu seipeh in. Keiman Israel kana lhen chun Egypt gam'a um Jacob chilhah ho koma keimatah kana kilah in, keima Pakai hi a Pathen u kahi ding ahi tin kitah tah in kihahsel in kana neije.
6 on that day I raised my hand to swear an oath to them that I would bring them out of the land of Egypt into a land that I had carefully selected for them. It was flowing with milk and honey; it was the most beautiful ornament among all the lands.
Hiche nikho mama chun keiman kitah tah in kaki hahsel in, keiman amaho chu Egypt gam'a konna kahin puidoh a amaho dinga kamudoh a kahetdoh nag am phapen, khoiju leh bongnoi lonna gam'a kapuilut ding ahi.
7 I said to them, “Let each man throw away the detestable things from before his eyes and the idols of Egypt. Do not make yourselves unclean; I am Yahweh your God.”
Hichun keiman amaho koma kaseijin, nangho amichan cheh in nalung sungu lodimset kidah umtah milima kon chun hung potdoh'un. Egypt mite milim doi semthu a chun kisuboh hih un. Ajeh chu keima na Pathen u kahi.
8 But they rebelled against me and were unwilling to listen to me. Each man did not throw away the detestable things from before his eyes nor forsake the idols of Egypt, so I determined to pour out my fury upon them to satisfy my wrath among them in the middle of the land of Egypt.
Ahinlah amaho kei dounan, doumah mah abol'un, kathu angai pouve. Alungsungu lodimset kidah dah um, chonsetna konna ahung kiheidoh uva, ahilouleh Egypt mite doilim semthu ho ahin dalha pouve. Hichun keiman kalung hanna suhbulhit nadinga kalungsatna nachung uva twisun a kasun lhah khum diu ahi tin kagih sal e.
9 I acted for my name's sake so it would not be profaned in the eyes of the nations among whom they were staying. I made myself known to them, in their eyes, by bringing them out of the land of Egypt.
Ahinlah ja umtah kamin huhdoh nadingin kaseisa chu kabol tapoi. Egypt gam'a kipatna Israel te kahin puidoh laiya namtin vaipi keima tah akimvel uva chengho mitmua kana kiphonna min chu jaum leh jachatna aum ding chu kana phal poi.
10 So I sent them out of the land of Egypt and brought them into the wilderness.
Hijeh chun keiman Egypt gam'a kipat in amaho chu gamthip noija kahin puidoh in,
11 Then I gave them my statutes and made my decrees known to them, by which a man will live if he obeys them.
Hiche munna chun keiman kathupeh leh kachondan ho ahin theina dinguva achinghoi diuvin kanapen,
12 I also gave them my Sabbaths as a sign between myself and them, for them to know that I am Yahweh who makes them holy.
Chule amaho leh keima kikah kiguijop nading kacholngah nikho kanapen ahi. Keima a Pakaiju kahi a chuleh athenga aumdohna ding uva ana chomkhen pa kahi chu ahet jing theina ding uva kana peh ahi.
13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness. They did not walk in my statutes; instead, they rejected my decrees, by which a man will live if he obeys them. They greatly profaned my Sabbaths, so I said I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness in order to end them.
Ahivangin Israel miten keidou nan doumah mah abol uvin, chuleh gamthip noija chun kathupeh ho ajui nom pouve. Seingaina chun chenna apeh diu vang chun kachon dan ho juinom deh pouvin te. Kacholngah nikho jong asukeh uve. Hijeh chun kalunsatna sunlhah khum jeng din kana gihsal in, chuleh gamthip laiya chu suhmang hel jeng ding hitam tin kana gonge.
14 But I acted for my name's sake so it would not be profaned in the eyes of the nations, in whose sight I had brought them out of Egypt.
Ahivangin Israelte Egypt gam'a kipatna kathahatna kahin puidoh anamu namtin vaipiho masanga kamin kijabol huhdoh nadingin, kanung tahdoh kit tai.
15 So I myself also raised my hand to swear an oath to them in the wilderness not to bring them into the land that I had been going to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey, which was the most beautiful ornament among all the lands.
Ahinlah gamthip noija chun amaho dounan kihahselna dihtah kaneijin, keiman peh dinga kagotna khoiju leh bongnoi lonna gamsung leiset chunga gamhoi pen gam'a chu kapuilut louhel diu ahi tia kaki hahsel ahi.
16 I swore this because they had rejected my decrees and did not walk in my statutes, and they profaned my Sabbaths, since their hearts walked after their idols.
Ijeh inem itile amahon kachondan ho anotthap un thupeh ho ajui nom pouvin, chuleh ka cholngah niho asukeh uve. Alungthim houvin amilim doi semthu hou bou agellui.
17 But my eye spared them from their destruction and I did not annihilate them in the wilderness.
Hijeng jongleh achung'uva lainatna kanei kit in gamthip noija suhmang ding kagotsa kahaijin, kana sumang tapoi. Beihel in jong kalha poi.
18 I said to their children in the wilderness, “Do not walk in the statutes of your fathers, or keep their rules, or defile yourselves with their idols.
Hitichun keiman achateu chun anu apateu khonung ajui lou diu, amilim doi semthu houva akisuhboh lou diu kadeije.
19 I am Yahweh your God, walk in my statutes; keep my decrees and obey them.
Keima na Pakai na Pathen u kahi, kathupeh ho nit uvin lang, kachondan ho lunglut tah in jui uvin.
20 Keep my Sabbaths holy so that they will be a sign between me and you, so that you will know that I am Yahweh your God.”
Chuleh ka cholngah niho athengin koi uvin, ajeh chu hiche hi nang le keima Pakai na Pathen u toh ikiguijop nau melchihna ahi tin kaseipeh uve.
21 But their sons and daughters rebelled against me. They did not walk in my statutes or keep my decrees, by which a man might live if he obeys them. They profaned my Sabbaths, so I determined to pour out my fury upon them to satisfy my wrath against them in the wilderness.
Ahivangin lah achate hou jengin keidounan doumah abol'uve. Amahon sei angai uva ahileh ahinpi diu ahijeng vang'in ajui nom pouve. Chuleh amahon ka cholngah niho asukeh kit uve. Hijeh chun kalungsatna hi gamthip noija twisuna kasun lhah khum diu nahi tin kagihsal kit e.
22 But I turned my hand away and acted for my name's sake, so it would not be profaned in the eyes of the nations in whose sight I had brought out the Israelites.
Hijeng ta jongle kathahat sanna Egypt gam'a konna kahin mu a namtin vaipi ho masanga kamin kijabolna venbit nadingin suhmang dinga kana gotsa kanung lahdoh kit tai.
23 I myself also lifted up my hand to swear to them in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the nations and disperse them among the lands.
Ahinlah gamthip noija chun amaho dounan amahohi namtin vaipi ho lah a kathethang ding ahi tin kihahselna dettah in kabol e.
24 I decided to do this since they had not obeyed my decrees, and since they had rejected my statutes and profaned my Sabbaths. Their eyes were longing after their fathers' idols.
Amahon keima chondan ajui nom pouve. Amahon kathupeh ho deimo vetsahnan kacholngah nikho ho asukeh uve. Chuleh aputeu apateu milim doi semthu ho bou chu angaicha jing uve.
25 Then I also gave them statutes that were not good, and decrees by which they could not live.
Keiman amaho chunga chun hinna a apuilou diu thupeh ho leh chondan hi kapen ahi.
26 I declared them to be unclean through their gifts—they made a sacrifice of every firstborn of the womb and caused them to pass through the fire—that I might fill them with horror so they will know that I am Yahweh!'
Keiman thilpeh a kapeh ho tah chun amaho leh amaho kisuboh tauvinte katin chuleh a Pathen hou govam thilto a ato diuvin achapa peng masa pen hou govam dingin kaphal peh uve. Hijeh chun amaho kasuhmang theina dingleh keima changseh hi Pakai kahi chu ahetdoh theina dinguva hiche hi kapeh ahi.
27 Therefore, son of man, speak to the house of Israel and say to them, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: In this also your fathers blasphemed me when they were unfaithful to me.
Hijeh chun mihem chapa thaneitah Pakaija kon hiche thu Israel mipite chu pen. Napu napateuvin eina taitom un, chuleh mikhutna eina pedoh uve.
28 When I brought them into the land that I had sworn to give them, and then whenever they saw any high hill and leafy tree, they offered their sacrifices, they provoked me by their offerings, and there they also burned their fragrant incense and poured out their drink offerings.
Keiman amohpeh dinga kaki hahselna sa gamsunga kahin puilut phat in amahon molsang sang lai jouse leh thingna engnoi tin amudoh jouseu kithoina govam thilto atoh uve. Amilim doi semthu ho govam thilto ahouvu chun kalungsatna chu asuthou bebe jeng uve. Amahon gim namtwi leh thao namtwi ho chu ahinchoi jun hicheho houva chun aasunglha lha jenguve.
29 Then I said to them, “What is this high place where you bring offerings there?” So the name is called Bamah to this day.'
Keiman nachennau munsang ho chu ipi kiti ham tia amaho koma kasei jeh chun (pathen tahsan louho muntheng chu tuni chan geijin Bamah munsang akitin ahi)
30 Therefore say to the house of Israel, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Why do you make yourselves unclean with the ways of your fathers? So why do you act like prostitutes, searching for disgusting things?
Hiijeh chun Israel mite chu thaneitah Pakaija kon hiche thuhi pen. Napu napa teuvin anabol bang banguva chu nangho leh nangho kisuboh dinga nakigot uham? Kidah umtah milim doiho houna a chu nangho leh nangho noti chonna chon jeng dinga nakigel jeng nahlai uham?
31 When you offer up your gifts—when you cause your sons to pass through the fire—to this day you defile yourselves with all your idols. So why should I let you seek me, house of Israel? As I live—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—I will not allow you to seek me.
Ajeh chu nachateu govam thilto dinga nachateu neucha chaho amaho thilpeh a napeh jing jeh uva chu tuni chan gei namilim doi semthu uva chu nakisuhboh jengu ahin, achutile keima komma thu neidoh diu chu kaphal peh diu hinam? O Israle mite! Keima kahin laisen imacha naseipeh pouvinge tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije.
32 The thought that is forming in your mind will never happen. You say, “Let us be like the other nations, like the clans in the other lands who worship wood and stone.”
Nanghon akimvel uva namtin vaipiho thingle songa kisem milim doi houho bangin um uhite tin nasei uve. Ahivangin nalung uva nagel u chu hithei louhel ding ahi.
33 As I live—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—I will certainly reign over you with a mighty hand, a raised arm, and fury that will be poured out on you.
Tahbeh mongin keima kahing jinge tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije. Keiman kalung hanna nasatah a nachunga thih khuttuma leh kichat tijatna thahattah'a vai kahin hom khum ding nahi.
34 I will bring you out from the other peoples and will gather you out of the countries among whom you have been scattered. I will do this with a mighty hand and with fury poured out.
Chuleh lunghang tah a kakhut thahattah leh kaban jang thahattah kahin lhan doh ding chu nakithe cheh nau gamho a konna kahin le puikhom kit ding nahiuve.
35 Then I will bring you into the wilderness of the peoples, and there I will judge you face to face.
Keiman namtin vaipi ho gamthip noija kahin puilutna chuleh hiche munna chu kimaito a nathu katan ding ahi.
36 As I judged your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so also I will judge you—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
Egypt gam'a konna napu napateu kahin puidoh nunga gamthip noija athu katan banga chu hiche lau munna chu nathu katan ding ahi tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije.
37 I will cause you to pass under my rod, and I will make you obey the requirements of the covenant.
Keiman nang chingthei tah a kavet chil uva chuleh kitepna dungjuija katuh dingu nahi.
38 I will purge from among you the rebels and those who revolt against me. I will send them out from the land where they are staying as foreigners, but they will not enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.
Doumah bolho leh kei douna galbol ho jouse nalah uva konna kasuh theng dingu ahi. Keiman amaho chu akisol mang nau gam'a konna kahin puikit uva, ahivanga amaho chu Israel gam lut louhel diu ahi. Hitia chu nanghon keima Pakai kahi chu nahet doh dingu ahi.
39 So to you, house of Israel, the Lord Yahweh says this: Each of you should go to his own idols. Worship them if you will refuse to listen to me, but you must no longer profane my holy name with your gifts and your idols.
O Israel mite, nangho dinga thaneitah Pakai thusei chu hiche hi ahi. Amasanga khun che inlang, chuleh namilim doi semthu ho chu gahou kit tan. Ahivangin agang ham agei ham le nangin kathu nangaija chule namilim doi houva kamintheng suhboh nangah dingu ahitai.
40 For on my holy mountain, on the mountain peak of Israel—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—all of the house of Israel will worship me there in the land. I will be pleased to require your offerings there, and also the firstfruits of your tribute with all your holy things.
Ajeh chu keima molsang theng leh Israel mol thupi ho chunga chu nikho khat teng chule Israel miten eihin hou dingu, chuleh keiman amaho chu kakisan diu ahi tin thaneitah Pakaiyin aseije. Hiche munna chu nanghon nathilto ho jouseu leh deilhen thilpeh chu kilhaina ho chu nahin ngeh ding ahi.
41 I will accept you like fragrant incense when I bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you have been scattered. I will show myself as holy among you for the nations to see.
Nakisol mang nauva konna in na kahin puilhung teng uleh keija dinga kilhaina lunglhai umtah chu nahi diu ahi. Chutia chu namtin vaipi ho vet ding nangho a chu kathenna kaphon doh ding ahi.
42 Then, when I bring you to the land of Israel, to the land that I have lifted up my hand to swear to give to your fathers, you will know that I am Yahweh.
Hitia chu keiman napu napa teu koma peh dinga tahsan tah a kaki hahsella kaki tepna gamsung a in uva kahin lut tengu leh nang hon keima hi Pakai kahi ti neihet dingu ahi.
43 There you will call to mind your conduct and all of your deeds by which you defiled yourselves, and you will despise yourselves in your own eyes for all your evil deeds that you have done.
Nanghon nahole nangho nakisuhboh nau lampi ho chu nanung vet uva chule nathilse boljeh uva nangho leh nangho jong nakideimo dingu ahi.
44 So you will know that I am Yahweh when I do this to you because of my name's sake, and not because of your evil deeds, and not because of your corrupt deeds, house of Israel—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
O Israel mite, nangho nagitlouna dungjui hilouva kamin jabolna jal'a ngailutna lhingsetna kagihsal uleh nanghon keima hi Pakai kahi ti nahin hetdoh dingu ahi, tin thaneitah Pakaiyin anaseije.
45 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Hiti chun Pakaija konin hiche thuseihi kahenga ahung lhunge.
46 “Son of man, set your face toward the southern lands, and speak against the south; prophesy against the forest of the Negev.
Mihem chapa kiheiyin lang lhanglang khu namai ngait inlang chule amaho dounan thuseijin: Negev gammang dounan gaothu seijin.
47 Say to the forest of the Negev, 'This is Yahweh's declaration—the Lord Yahweh says this: See, I will set a fire among you. It will devour every fresh tree and every dried tree among you. The fiery flame will not be quenched; every face from the south to the north will be burned.
Lhanglang sang gamthip jah a khun seipeh in, ‘hichehi thaneitah Pakai thusei ahi; Pakai thusei hi ngaijuvin! Keiman mei kahin halla chule thingphung jouse chu a-eng hihen ago hijongleh ania kavam soh ding ahi. Tijat umtah ameikou chu kisumit pontin, lhanglang sanga patna sahlang sang chan a kagop ding ahi.
48 Then all flesh will see that I am Yahweh when I light the fire, and it will not be quenched.'”
Chutia chu vannoi leisetna mijousen hiche mei chu keima hal ahi ti amu cheh diu ahin, kiphel mit joulou ding ahi.
49 Then I said, “Alas! Lord Yahweh, they are saying of me, 'Is he not a mere teller of parables?'”
Hichun keiman, O thaneitah Pakai! Aman thuchih jengin thu aseije, tin kajah a aseijuve katin ahi.
