< Ezekiel 1 >

1 And it cometh to pass, in the thirtieth year, in the fourth [month], in the fifth of the month, and I [am] in the midst of the Removed by the river Chebar, the heavens have been opened, and I see visions of God.
Aruithumnae kum, thapa yung pali, hnin panganae dawkvah, Kebar tui teng san lah kaawm e Judahnaw koe ka o navah, hettelah doeh. Kalvan a kamawng teh, Cathut e vision ka hmu.
2 In the fifth of the month — it is the fifth year of the removal of the king Jehoiachin —
Siangpahrang Jehoiakim e san lah ao nah kum, thapa yung pali, hnin panga hnin dawk,
3 hath the word of Jehovah certainly been unto Ezekiel son of Buzi the priest, in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river Chebar, and there is on him there a hand of Jehovah.
Khaldean ram Kebar tui teng vah, Buzi capa vaihma Ezekiel koevah, BAWIPA e lawk karang poung lah a pha teh, hawvah BAWIPA e kut teh a lathueng vah ao.
4 And I look, and lo, a tempestuous wind is coming from the north, a great cloud, and fire catching itself, and brightness to it round about, and out of its midst as the colour of copper, out of the midst of the fire.
Ka khet teh atunglah hoi katang poung e kahlî kathout a tho e ka hmu. Ka raim poung e tâmai dawk hoi sumpapalik teh, atengpam pueng pheng a ang. Sumpapalik e palek ka ang e teh rahum patetlah ao.
5 And out of its midst [is] a likeness of four living creatures, and this [is] their appearance; a likeness of man [is] to them,
Tâmai lungui vah moithang pali touh a kamnue awh. Hote moithangnaw e meilam teh, tami e meilam ka sin e hah a tâco.
6 and four faces [are] to each, and four wings [are] to each of them,
Minhmai pali touh hoi rathei pali touh rip a tawn awh.
7 and their feet [are] straight feet, and the sole of their feet [is] as a sole of a calf's foot, and they are sparkling as the colour of bright brass;
A khok teh kalanthoung niteh, Maito khokpatin patet e a tawn awh. Rahum loukloukkaang e patetlah a ang awh.
8 and hands of man under their wings — on their four sides, and their faces and their wings — [are] to them four;
Minhmai pali, rathei pali touh hloilah tami kut patetlah pali touh rip a tawn awh teh, rathei rahim lengkaleng ao.
9 joining one unto another [are] their wings, they turn not round in their going, each straight forward they go.
Moithang pali touh e naw ni, a rathei kadai awh nah a rathei dong hmo koung a kâbet. Rathei a kangdue teh, a kâroe awh nahai a tak kâroe laipalah a kâtahruet awh.
10 As to the likeness of their faces, the face of a man, and the face of a lion, toward the right [are] to them four, and the face of an ox on the left [are] to them four, and the face of an eagle [are] to them four.
Moithang pali touh ni minhmai pali touh rip a tawn awh. A hmalah tami e mei, aranglah sendek mei, avoilah maitotan mei, a hnuklah mataw mei a tawn awh.
11 And their faces and their wings are separate from above, to each [are] two joining together, and two are covering their bodies.
Moithang pali touh ni a rathei kahni touh rip a kâhmo thai nahanlah a kadai awh teh, alouke hah a tak a ramuk nah aw.
12 And each straight forward they go, whither the spirit is to go, they go, they turn not round in their going.
Hmalah kalancalah a cei awh teh, muitha ni ceisak han a ngainae pueng koe a cei awh, a cei awh navah kamlang awh hoeh.
13 As to the likeness of the living creatures, their appearances [are] as coals of fire — burning as the appearance of lamps; it is going up and down between the living creatures, and brightness [is] to the fire, and out of the fire is going forth lightning.
Moithangnaw e kâvannae teh, ka tawk e hmaito, moithangnaw rahak vah hnuklah hmalah ka cet e hmaito patetlah ao. Hmaito thung hoi sumpapalik.
14 And the living creatures are running, and turning back, as the appearance of the flash.
Moithangnaw ni hai sumpapalik e patetlah hnuklah hmalah a kamlang awh teh a yawng awh.
15 And I see the living creatures, and lo, one wheel [is] in the earth, near the living creatures, at its four faces.
Moithang pali touh ka khet lahun nah lengkhok hah Moithang pali touh teng vah talai dawk kaawm e hah ka hmu.
16 The appearance of the wheels and their works [is] as the colour of beryl, and one likeness [is] to them four, and their appearances and their works [are] as it were the wheel in the midst of the wheel.
Lengkhoknaw a kamnuenae hoi a coungnae teh Beril talung phukaawm hoi a kâvan. Pali touh hoi a coungnae rei a kâvan awh teh, a meilam teh lengkhok buet touh thung buet touh mawp e patetlah ao.
17 On their four sides, in their going they go, they turn not round in their going.
A kâtahruet navah a hmalah lengkaleng a cei awh teh, a cei awh navah kâhei laipalah a cei thai awh.
18 As to their rings, they are both high and fearful, and their rings [are] full of eyes round about them four.
Lengkhoknaw hai arasang teh taki a tho poung. Hote pali touh teh mit hoi king a kawi awh.
19 And in the going of the living creatures, the wheels go beside them, and in the living creatures being lifted up from off the earth, lifted up are the wheels.
Moithangnaw teh a cei awh navah, lengkhok ni a hnuk a kâbang awh teh, Moithangnaw hah talai dawk hoi tawm takhang lah ao navah, lengkhok hai a kâtawm.
20 Whither the spirit is to go, they go, thither the spirit [is] to go, and the wheels are lifted up over-against them, for a living spirit [is] in the wheels.
Muitha ni ceisak hane a ngainae tangkuem koe a cei awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, muitha hah haw vah a cei. Lengkhok teh amamouh hoi tawm lah ao awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Moithangnaw e muitha teh lengkhok dawk ao.
21 In their going, they go; and in their standing, they stand; and in their being lifted up from off the earth, lifted up are the wheels over-against them; for a living spirit [is] in the wheels.
Ahnimanaw a cei awh navah, lengkhoknaw hai a cei awh. Ahnimouh a kangdue navah, lengkhoknaw hai a kangdue. Ahnimouh talai hoi tawm lah ao navah, lengkhok hai ahnimouh koe tawm e lah ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Moithangnaw e muitha teh lengkhok dawk ao.
22 And a likeness [is] over the heads of the living creatures of an expanse, as the colour of the fearful ice, stretched out over their heads from above.
Moithangnaw e lû dawk khristal talung pangaw loukloukkaang e patetlah sak e kalvan ni a kalup.
23 And under the expanse their wings [are] straight, one toward the other, to each are two covering on this side, and to each are two covering on that side — their bodies.
Hote kalup e rahim vah, Moithangnaw a kangdue. Alawilah amamae tak a ramuk nahanelah rathei kahni touh a kadai. Alouke rathei kahni touh hoi a tak hah a ramuk awh.
24 And I hear the noise of their wings, as the noise of many waters, as the noise of the Mighty One, in their going — the noise of tumult, as the noise of a camp, in their standing they let fall their wings.
A kamleng awh nah a rathei takhawng pawlawk ka thai teh, tuipui tuicapa pawlawk hoi ransahu pawlawk patetlah tamimaya a hram e pawlawk hoi Athakasaipounge Cathut lawk patetlah ka thai teh, a kâhat nah a ratheinaw hah a cakuep awh.
25 And there is a voice from above the expanse, that [is] above their head: in their standing they let fall their wings.
A kâhat awh teh a ratheinaw a cakuep awh navah, ahnimae lû lathueng vah kalvan hoi lawk pou a tho.
26 And above the expanse that [is] over their head, as an appearance of a sapphire stone, [is] the likeness of a throne, and on the likeness of the throne a likeness, as the appearance of man upon it from above.
A lûnaw dawk kaawm e lathueng kalvan rasang dawk bawitungkhung patetlah sapphire talung aphu kaawm e patetlah ka kamnuek e ao. Haw e bawitungkhung patetlah kaawm e dawkvah, tami hoi kâvan e ao.
27 And I see as the colour of copper, as the appearance of fire within it round about, from the appearance of his loins and upward, and from the appearance of his loins and downward, I have seen as the appearance of fire, and brightness [is] to it round about.
A keng lathueng lah dingyinnaw patetlah loukloukkaang e ka hmu. keng koehoi a rahim lae teh, hmaisaan patetlah ka hmu, petkâkalup lah koung a ang.
28 As the appearance of the bow that is in a cloud in a day of rain, so [is] the appearance of the brightness round about.
Kho a rak hnin e tâmai dawk e salumpa kamnuek e patetlah a tengpam angnae a kamnuenae ao. Ka hmu navah, pakhup lah ka rawp teh lawk kadeikung e lawk hah ka thai.
