Ezekiel 3

1 Anih mah kai khaeah, Kami capa, na hnuk ih hmuen to caa ah; hae caqam tangoeng caak pacoengah, caeh ah loe Isarael imthung takoh khaeah thui paeh, tiah ang naa.

Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that you find; eat this roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel.

2 To pongah pakha ka angh, anih mah to caqam tangoeng to ang caksak.

So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that roll.

3 To pacoengah anih mah, Kami capa, kang paek ih caqam tangoeng to caa ah loe zok to koisak ah, tiah ang naa. To pongah ka caak, to naah ka pakha thungah khoitui baktiah luep.

And he said unto me, Son of man, cause your belly to eat, and fill your bowels with this roll that I give you. Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.

4 Anih mah kai khaeah, Kami capa, Israel imthung takoh khaeah caeh ah loe ka thuih ih loknawk hae nihcae khaeah taphong ah.

And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get you unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.

5 Na panoek ai ih lok apae kami, karai parai lok apae kaminawk khaeah kang patoeh ai, Israel imthung takoh khaeah ni kang patoeh.

For you are not sent to a people of a strange speech and of an hard language, but to the house of Israel;

6 Na panoek ai ih lok, karai parai lok apae kaminawk khaeah kang patoeh ai. To baktih kaminawk khaeah kang patoeh nahaeloe, nihcae mah na lok tahngai o lat tih.

Not to many people of a strange speech and of an hard language, whose words you can not understand. Surely, had I sent you to them, they would have hearkened unto you.

7 Toe Israel imthung takoh loe ka lok tahngai o ai pongah, na lok doeh tahngai o mak ai; Israel imthung takoh loe palung len o moe, palungthah o boih.

But the house of Israel will not hearken unto you; for they will not hearken unto me: for all the house of Israel are shameless and hardhearted.

8 Khenah, nihcae ih mikhmai baktiah na mikhmai tha kang caksak moe, nihcae ih lupataeh baktiah na lupataeh doeh tha ka caksak boeh.

Behold, I have made your face strong against their faces, and your forehead strong against their foreheads.

9 Na lupataeh to kamtak koek thlung pong tamtak kue ah kang sak pae boeh; nihcae loe laisaep thaih kami ah om o cadoeh, zii hmah; nihcae mah doeh na pazih hmah nasoe, tiah ang naa.

As an adamant harder than flint have I made your forehead: fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.

10 To pacoengah kai khaeah, Kami capa, kang thuih ih loknawk boih kahoih ah tahngai ah loe, palung thungah pakuem ah.

Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I shall speak unto you receive in your heart, and hear with your ears.

11 Misong ah kaom na caengnawk khaeah caeh ah loe Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih, tiah taphong ah, tahngai o maw, tahngai o ai maw, nihcae khaeah lok to taphong ah, tiah ang naa.

And go, get you to them of the captivity, unto the children of your people, and speak unto them, and tell them, Thus says the Lord GOD; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.

12 To pacoengah muithla mah kai ang tapom tahang, a ohhaih ahmuen hoiah Angraeng lensawkhaih tacawt naah, Tahamhoihaih om nasoe! tiah ka hnuk bangah kaom kalen parai lok to ka thaih.

Then the spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, saying, Blessed be the glory of the LORD from his place.

13 Hinghaih katawn hmuennawk maeto hoi maeto mah boh ih pakhraeh tuennawk, nihcae taeng ih rel khok tuennawk hoi katuen parai atuennawk to ka thaih.

I heard also the noise of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the noise of the wheels opposite to them, and a noise of a great rushing.

14 To naah muithla mah ang tapom tahang moe, kalah bangah ang caeh haih, kai loe mawnhaih, palungphuihaih hoiah ka bang; toe ka nuiah thacak Angraeng ih ban to oh.

So the spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; but the hand of the LORD was strong upon me.

15 Khebar vapui taeng, misongnawk ohhaih Tel Abib ahmuen ah ka phak, nihcae ohhaih ahmuen ah ka oh, nihcae salakah dawnraihaih hoi ni sarihto thung kang hnut.

Then I came to them of the captivity at Telabib, that dwelt by the river of Chebar, and I sat where they sat, and remained there astonished among them seven days.

16 Ni sarihto pacoengah, Angraeng ih lok kai khaeah angzoh,

And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

17 kami capa, Israel imthung takoh khenzawnkung ah kang suek boeh; to pongah kang thuih ih lok hae tahngai ah loe, kai khae ih acoehaih lok hae nihcae khae thuiah.

Son of man, I have made you a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.

18 Kai mah, Kahoih ai kami maeto khaeah, Nang loe na dueh tangtang tih boeh, tiah ka naa; Toe nang mah anih to acoehaih na paek ai, kahoih ai kami hinghaih pahlong hanah, kahoih ai kami khaeah acoe paekhaih lok na thui pae ai: to naah a sak ih zaehaih baktiah kahoih ai kami to dueh ving nahaeloe, anih ih athii tho to nang khaeah ka suk han.

When I say unto the wicked, You shall surely die; and you give him not warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at your hand.

19 Toe kasae kami to acoehaih na paek to mah, kasae sakhaih hoi sethaih loklam to angqoi taak ai nahaeloe, a zaehaih pongah dueh tih; toe nang loe na hinghaih to pahlong boeh.

Yet if you warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul.

20 To baktih toengah katoeng kami loe a toenghaih to toengsut moe, kahoih ai hmuen to sah nahaeloe, a hmaa ah amthaekhaih ka suek pae han, anih loe to ah dueh tih; anih khaeah acoehaih lok na thui pae ai pongah, anih loe a zaehaih baktiah dueh tih, a sak ih toenghaih to panoek pae mak ai boeh; anih ih athii tho to nang khaeah ka suk han.

Again, When a righteous man does turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling-block before him, he shall die: because you have not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he has done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at your hand.

21 Toe zaehaih sak han ai ah katoeng kami to acoehaih na paek pongah, katoeng kami mah zaehaih sah ai nahaeloe, acoehaih lok tahngai pongah, anih loe hing tih; nang doeh na hinghaih to pahlong tih, tiah ang naa.

Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he does not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also you have delivered your soul.

22 To ah Angraeng ih ban ka nuiah oh; anih mah kai khaeah, Angthawk loe, azawn ah caeh ah, to ah nang khaeah lok kang thuih han, tiah ang naa.

And the hand of the LORD was there upon me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with you.

23 To pongah kang thawk moe, azawn ah ka caeh; Khenah, Khebar vapui taengah ka hnuk ih lensawkhaih baktih toengah, to ah doeh Angraeng lensawkhaih to oh, to naah kai loe tabok hoiah ka kuep.

Then I arose, and went forth into the plain: and, behold, the glory of the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river of Chebar: and I fell on my face.

24 To pacoengah muithla kai thungah akun moe, ka khok nuih ang doetsak, kai khaeah, Caeh ah, thok to khah loe im thungah om ah, tiah ang naa.

Then the spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet, and spoke with me, and said unto me, Go, shut yourself within your house.

25 Toe nang, Aw kami capa, khenah, nihcae mah qui hoi na pathlet o ueloe, minawk salakah na caeh thaih han ai ah, qui hoiah na pathlet o tih.

But you, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon you, and shall bind you with them, and you shall not go out among them:

26 Nihcae loe laisaep thaih imthung takoh ah oh o pongah, nihcae na zoeh thaih han ai ah, na palai to pakha ranuiah kang betsak caeng han.

And I will make your tongue cleave to the roof of your mouth, that you shall be dumb, and shall not be to them a reprover: for they are a rebellious house.

27 Toe lok kang thuih naah, na pakha to kang paongh pae han, to naah nihcae khaeah, nangcae loe laisaep thaih imthung takoh ah na oh o pongah, tahngai kami loe tahngai nasoe loe, tahngai ai kami loe tahngai hmah nasoe, tiah Angraeng Sithaw mah thuih.

But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD; He that hears, let him hear; and he that forbears, let him forbear: for they are a rebellious house.
