< Ezekiel 44 >

1 Then he brought me back the way of the gate of the outward sanctuary which looketh towards the east; and it [was] shut.
Kai te khothoeng la aka mael poengben rhokso vongka longpuei la n'mael puei vaengah te te ana khai uh pueng.
2 Then said the LORD to me; This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no man shall enter in by it; because the LORD the God of Israel hath entered in by it, therefore it shall be shut.
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Vongka a khaih he ana om saeh. Ong boel saeh lamtah he lamloh hlang kun boel saeh. Israel Pathen BOEIPA he te lamloh a kun lalah a khaih uh dongah ana om saeh.
3 [It is] for the prince; the prince, he shall sit in it to eat bread before the LORD; he shall enter by the way of the porch of [that] gate, and shall go out by the way of the same.
BOEIPA mikhmuh ah buh aka ca aka ca ham khoboei, khoboei mah a khuiah ngol saeh. Vongka kah ngalha long kun saeh lamtah amah long ah cet saeh,” a ti.
4 Then he brought me the way of the north gate before the house: and I looked, and behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house of the LORD: and I fell upon my face.
Te phoeiah im hmai kah tlangpuei vongka longpuei la kai n'khuen. Ka sawt vaengah BOEIPA im te BOEIPA kah thangpomnah tarha bae tih ka maelhmai neh ka bakop.
5 And the LORD said to me, Son of man mark well, and behold with thy eyes, and hear with thy ears all that I say to thee concerning all the ordinances of the house of the LORD, and all its laws; and mark well the entrance of the house, with every going forth of the sanctuary;
Tedae BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Hlang capa aw na lungbuei ah khueh lamtah na mik neh hmu laeh. Na hna neh ya laeh. A cungkuem dongah kai loh nang te BOEIPA im kah khosing boeih neh a olkhueng dongkah olkhueng cungkuem te kang uen coeng. Te dongah na lungbuei te a im vongrhai rhokso kah a thoengnah cungkuem taengah khueh laeh.
6 And thou shalt say to the rebellious, [even] to the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; O ye house of Israel, let it suffice you of all your abominations;
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui he, Israel imkhui boekoek taengah thui pah. Israel imkhui nang kah tueilaehkoi cungkuem te nangmih taengah temah laeh saeh.
7 In that ye have brought [into my sanctuary] strangers, uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to pollute it, [even] my house, when ye offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken my covenant because of all your abominations.
Lungbuei pumdul rhoek neh pumsa kah pumdul, kholong ca rhoek te ka rhokso ah om ham nang khuen uh. A tha neh a thii te ka buh la na nawn vaengah ka im te a poeih tih nangmih tueilaehkoi cungkuem loh ka paipi te a phae.
8 And ye have not kept the charge of my holy things: but ye have set keepers of my charge in my sanctuary for yourselves.
Ka cimcaihnah loh a kuek te na ngaithuen uh pawt dongah ka rhokso dongkah ka kuek te aka ngaithuen la nangmih na khueh uh thae.
9 Thus saith the Lord GOD; No stranger, uncircumcised in heart, nor uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of any stranger that [is] among the children of Israel.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Lungbuei pumdul neh pumsa pumdul, kholong ca boeih tah Israel ca lakli kah kholong ca boeih khaw ka rhokso la mop boel saeh.
10 And the Levites that have gone away far from me, when Israel went astray, who went astray from me after their idols; they shall even bear their iniquity.
Te dongah Levi pataeng kai taeng lamloh a lakhla vaengah tah Israel loh kho a hmang. Kho a hmang vaengah kai taeng lamloh a mueirhol hnuk a vai uh dongah amamih kathaesainah te phuei uh saeh.
11 Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, [having] charge at the gates of the house, and ministering to the house: they shall slay the burnt-offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister to them.
Te daengah ni ka rhokso ah om uh vetih im vongka kah cawhkung la aka thotat neh im ah aka thotat la a om uh eh. Te rhoek loh pilnam ham hmueihhlutnah neh hmueih te ngawn pah saeh. Te rhoek te amih bong ham amih mikhmuh ah pai saeh.
12 Because they ministered to them before their idols, and caused the house of Israel to fall into iniquity; therefore have I lifted up my hand against them, saith the Lord GOD, and they shall bear their iniquity.
Amih loh a mueirhol hmai ah a thohtat uh khaw Israel imkhui ham tathaesainah hmuitoel la poeh uh. Te dongah ni ka kut he amih ka phuel thil. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni. Te dongah amamih kathaesainah te phuei uh saeh.
13 And they shall not come near to me, to do the office of a priest to me, nor to come near to any of my holy things, in the most holy [place]: but they shall bear their shame, and their abominations which they have committed.
Kai taengah khosoih bi ham ka taengla ha mop uh boel saeh. Cimcaihnah khui lamakh cimcaihnah ni kai kah cimcaihnah cungkuem khuiah ha mop eh. Te dongah amamih kah mingthae neh amamih kah tueilaehkoi a saii uh te phuei uh saeh.
14 But I will make them keepers of the charge of the house, for all its service, and for all that shall be done therein.
Tedae amih te a thohtatnah cungkuem dongah ka im kah a kuek aka ngaithuen tih a khuiah a cungkuem aka saii la ka khueh ni.
15 But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, that kept the charge of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister to me, and they shall stand before me to offer to me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord GOD:
Tedae Zadok koca, Levi khosoih rhoek loh ka rhokso kah a kuek te ngaithuen uh saeh. Te daengah ni amih Israel ca loh kai taeng lamkah kho a hmang vaengah kai aka bong la kai taengah ha mop uh vetih kai taengah maehtha neh thii nawn ham te ka mikhmuh ah a pai uh eh. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni.
16 They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister to me, and they shall keep my charge.
Amih ni ka rhokso la a kun uh eh. Te phoeiah amih ni kai aka bong ham ka caboei taengah ha mop uh vetih ka kuek te a ngaithuen uh eh.
17 And it shall come to pass, [that] when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come upon them, while they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within.
Amih te a khui kah vongtung vongka khuila kun ham a om vaengah hlamik himbai mah bai uh saeh. Amih te khuiben vongup vongka neh ka im ah a thohtat uh vaengah tah a pum dongah tumul khuen boel saeh.
18 They shall have linen bonnets upon their heads, and shall have linen breeches upon their loins; they shall not gird [themselves] with any thing that causeth sweat.
Hlamik lukhuem te a lu dongah khuem uh saeh lamtah hlamik hnii te a cinghen ah na uh saeh. Himbai-bae la vah uh boel saeh.
19 And when they go forth into the outer court, [even] into the outer court to the people, they shall put off their garments in which they ministered, and lay them in the holy chambers, and they shall put on other garments; and they shall not sanctify the people with their garments.
Amih poengben vongtung taengla aka cet loh poengben vongtung kah pilnam taengla a caeh atah a bibi vaengkah a himbai te pit uh saeh. Te te cimcaihnah imkhan ah khueh uh saeh lamtah himbai tloe bai uh saeh. Amih kah himbai lamloh pilnam khaw vik ciim uh pawt ve.
20 Neither shall they shave their heads, nor suffer their locks to grow long; they shall only poll their heads.
A lu khaw vo uh boel saeh lamtah sammuei khaw sen boel saeh. A lu te rhuep la rhuep uh saeh.
21 Neither shall any priest drink wine, when they enter into the inner court.
Khosoih boeih long tah khuiben vongtung la a kun vaengah misurtui o uh boel saeh.
22 Neither shall they take for their wives a widow, nor her that is put away: but they shall take maidens of the seed of the house of Israel, or a widow that had a priest before.
Nuhmai neh vama khaw a yuu la lo uh boel saeh. Tedae Israel imkhui kah tiingan lamloh oila neh nuhmai khaw khosoih kah yurho la aka om tah lo uh saeh.
23 And they shall teach my people the [difference] between the holy and profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.
Ka pilnam te a laklo ah rhongingnah lamloh cimcaihnah te thuinuet uh. A laklo ah cuemcaih khui lamkah rhalawt hno te tueng uh saeh.
24 And in controversy they shall stand in judgment; [and] they shall judge it according to my judgments: and they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all my assemblies; and they shall hallow my sabbaths.
Tuituknah dongah khaw amih tah kai kah laitloeknah dongah pai uh saeh lamtah tiktamnah ham laitloek uh saeh. Laitloek long khaw ka olkhueng bangla laitloek uh saeh. Ka khoning cungkuem dongah khaw ka khosing te ngaithuen uh saeh lamtah ka Sabbath te ciim uh saeh.
25 And they shall come at no dead person to defile themselves: but for father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter, for brother, or for sister that hath had no husband, they may defile themselves.
Hlang duek taengah mop boel saeh vik poeih uh ve. Te dongah, napa long khaw, manu long khaw, capa long khaw, canu long khaw, manuca neh tanu long khaw va aka om pawt te poeih koinih,
26 And after he is cleansed, they shall reckon to him seven days.
Te dongah anih kah ciimnah te hnin rhih phoeiah ni anih ham a tae pah eh.
27 And in the day that he goeth into the sanctuary, to the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin-offering, saith the Lord GOD.
Hmuencim ah thohtat ham khuiben vongup kah hmuencim la a mop hnin ah a boirhaem te nawn saeh. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah kah olphong ni.
28 And it shall be to them for an inheritance: I [am] their inheritance: and ye shall give them no possession in Israel: I [am] their possession.
Te te amih taengah rho la om saeh. Ka he amih kah rho coeng ni. Te dongah Israel kah khohut te amih taengah pae boeh. Kai he amih kah khohut coeng ni.
29 They shall eat the meat-offering, and the sin-offering, and the trespass-offering; and every dedicated thing in Israel shall be theirs.
Khocang, boirhaem neh hmaithennah te a caak uh vetih Israel khuiah yaehtaboeih boeih te amih ham om bitni.
30 And the first of all the first-fruits of all [things], and every oblation of all, of every [sort] of your oblations, shall be the priest's: ye shall also give to the priest the first of your dough, that he may cause the blessing to rest in thy house.
A tanglue cungkuem neh a thaihcuek boeih, khocang boeih neh na khosaa cungkuem lamkah boeih te khosoih rhoek ham om saeh. Na buhhuem tanglue te khosoih rhoek taengla na paek daengah ni yoethennah te na im ah a pai eh.
31 The priests shall not eat of any thing that is dead of itself, or torn, whether of fowl or beast.
Maehrhok neh saha boeih tah vaa khaw rhamsa khaw khosoih loh ca boel saeh,” a ti.
