< Ezekiel 8 >

1 Jehoiachin lengpa sohchan kal kumgup lhin kum, lhalam som le sagi nikhon Juda lamkai ho kain a ana um pet un thaneitah Pakai chun eina tuhchah e.
And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the fifth month, on the fifth [day] of the month, I was sitting in the house, and the elders of Juda were sitting before me: and the hand of the Lord came upon me.
2 Mihem put tobang pu gongso khat kamui, kathilmu pa kongbuh noilam chu akilangin, amapa chu meikong toh abange. Akongbuh a pat achunglang chu khisong valla val meikou ol a kimu jap jap bangin akimui.
And I looked, and, behold, the likeness of a man: from his loins and downwards [there was] fire, and from his loins upwards [there was] as the appearance of amber.
3 Amapa chunk hut toh kilou khat ahin lhang doh in kasamin eihin manne. Hichun lhagaovin vanthamjol lang gei eidom tou tan, chuleh Pathen a konna thilmu nei dingin Jerusalem ah ei thah tan ahi. Hichun keima houin leitol sahlang kelkot sunga chun eipuije, hiche mun chu nasatah a Pakai alungnat sah milim loi lentah umna mun chu ahi.
And he stretched forth the likeness of a hand, and took me by the crown of my head; and the Spirit lifted me up between the earth and sky, and brought me to Jerusalem in a vision of God, to the porch of the gate that looks to the north, where was the pillar of the Purchaser.
4 Phulou helouvin phat masa laiya phaichama kana musa Israel Pathen loupina ana um'in ahi.
And, behold, the glory of the Lord God of Israel was there, according to the vision which I saw in the plain.
5 Hichun Pakaiyin kajah a aseije, “Mihem chapa sahlang sang khu ven” atin hijeh chun keiman kaven ahileh sahlang sang kelkot gah lutna pama maicham koma chun Pakai nasatah ana lunghan sah milim doi kitung chu ana dinge.
And he said to me, Son of man, lift up your eyes towards the north. So I lifted up mine eyes towards the north, and, behold, [I looked] from the north towards the eastern gate.
6 “Mihem chapa,” ahin tin, “Ipi abulu namu tah em? Ka houin a konna kei nodohna dinga kidah umtah chonsetna abol'u khu namu tah em? Ahin kahungin nangin hiche ho sanga kidah umjo chonsetna tamtah namube ding ahi.”
And he said to me, Son of man, have you seen what these do? They commit great abominations here so that I should keep away from my sanctuary: and you shall see yet greater iniquities.
7 Hichun aman banghoma konna asunglang kimu theina houin leitol kotphunga chun eipuilut e.
And he brought me to the porch of the court.
8 Aman kakoma aseijin “Tun mihem chapa, bang khu lai vang'in,” eiti. Hijeh chun keiman bang chu kalai vang'in ahileh lampi kiselguh chu kamutai.
And he said to me, Son of man, dig: so I dug, and behold a door.
9 “Lut in,” ati. “Chuleh gitlouna leh chonsetna abol'u khu ven,” eiti.
And he said to me, Go in, and behold the iniquities which they practise here.
10 Hijeh chun kalut tan ahileh, bang dunga ganhing kitholtho ho lim leh kidah dah um thimsem ho lim khet thi a kisem ho chu kamutai. Israel mipiten ahouvu milim doi jatchom chom ho jong chu keiman kamudoh tai.
So I went in and looked; and saw vain abominations, and all the idols of the house of Israel, portrayed upon them round about.
11 Israel lamkai som sagi ho chutoh alai juva Shaphan chapa Jaajaniah adin jong kamudoh tai, amaho khat cheh chun gim namtwi hal bom chu akichoijun, hichea kon chun gim namtwi kihalna meikhu meilom tobang chu aluchung uva ahung kitom jenjun jenge.
And seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel, and Jechonias the son of Saphan stood in their presence in the midst of them, and each one held his censer in his hand; and the smoke of the incense went up.
12 Hichun Pakaiyin kahenga hin ahinseije, “Mihem chapa pindan thim sung khu Israel lamkai hon ipi abol'u ahi namu khah tah em? Pakaiyin igam u adalhah sa ahitah jeh in eimu pouvinte,” tin amahon asei uve.
And he said to me, You have seen, son of man, what the elders of the house of Israel do, each one of them in their secret chamber: because they have said, The Lord see not; The Lord has forsaken the earth.
13 Hichun Pakaiyin aseiben “Hungin chule keiman hiche ho sanga tamjo kidah dah umjo ho chu navetsah inge.”
And he said to me, You shall see yet greater iniquities which these do.
14 Aman Pakai houin sahlang kelkot a chun eipuijin, hiche a chun numei themkhat ana tou uvin, a pathen u Tammuz chu ana kauve.
And he brought me in to the porch of the house of the Lord that looks to the north; and, behold [there were] women sitting there lamenting for Thammuz.
15 “Hiche hi namu hitam” tin aman eidonge. “Ahinlah hiche ho sanga tamjo kidah dah um chonsetna ho navetsah inge” ati.
And he said to me, Son of man, you have seen; but you shall yet see [evil] practices greater then these.
16 Hichun aman Pakai houin leitol sungnung a chun eipuilut e. pindan sung nung lutna leh sum eng maicham kikah a muntheng phung lutna a chun upa somni le nga tobang Pakai muntheng lam nung ngat in ading uve. Amaho chun solam angauvin, nisa hou nan tol ah abohkhup uve.
And he brought me into the inner court of the house of the Lord, and at the entrance of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty men, with their back parts towards the temple of the Lord, and their faces [turned] the opposite way; and these were worshipping the sun.
17 “Mihem chapa, hiche hohi namu khah tah em? tin aman eidonge. Hitobanga kidah umtah chonsetna abol uhi Juda mite dinga imalou thema angaito u ham? Hiche hin anam pumpiuva thaguma kino tona a apui uva, nahko hom leng lunga eivet uva chuleh eiphin lunghang bebe jeng ding ham?
And he said to me, Son of man, you have seen this. [Is it] a little thing to the house of Juda to practise the iniquities which they have practised here? for they have filled the land with iniquity: and, behold, these are as scorners.
18 Hiti ahijeh a chu kalung hanna kadonbut diu, khatcha jong kahing hoi lou ding, chuleh keiman kalungthim a jong, kalainat pilou hel ding ahi. Chuleh kahepina diuvin hung kap jong leu keiman kangaipeh louhel diu ahi.”
Therefore will I deal with them in wrath: mine eye shall not spare, nor will I have any mercy.
