Ezekiel 1
1 Juda mi Babylon gam Chebar vadung pang a sohchang ho lah a kana umna kum somle kumthum alhin kum July 31 lhinni achun van ana kihongin chule Pathen thilmu theina chu kana mui.
Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth [month], in the fifth [day] of the month, as I was among the captives by the river Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
2 Hiche hi Jehoiachin lengpa asohchan jou kal kum nga lhin kuma chu soh ahi.
In the fifth [day] of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin’s captivity,
3 (Pakaiyin hiche thuhi Buzi chapa Ezekiel thempupa kom a Babylon lenggam Chebar vadung panga aum petna anapeh ahin, chule Pakai khut chu achungah ana kingame)
the word of Jehovah came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of Jehovah was there upon him.
4 Keiman kavet pettah chun Sahlam a kon huipi gopi nasatah ahung kitol kamun, Meilhang lentah masanga kolphe toh kitho a vah pempumin ahunge. Meilom lah a chun meikou aumin, chule meikou lailunga chun khichang tobang meikou vahlap lap aume.
And I looked, and, behold, a stormy wind came out of the north, a great cloud, with a fire infolding itself, and a brightness round about it, and out of the midst thereof as it were glowing metal, out of the midst of the fire.
5 Meilom lailunga kon chun mihem melput tobang thil hing thei li ahung doh e.
And out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man;
6 Maili leh lhaving li aneiju tailouvin,
and every one had four faces, and every one of them had four wings.
7 Akeng hou chu ajangpet in, akengphangu chu bongnou keng to abangin alange.
And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot; and they sparkled like burnished brass.
8 Alhaving li noicheh a chun mihem ho khut kamu doh e.
And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings [thus]:
9 Ahingthei ho lhaving ho chu khat le khat akijop jel cheh in ahi. Khat cheh a chu akipat doh teng leh kihei louvin jangpet in masang lam ngan akijot jiuve.
their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.
10 Amasang uva chun mihem mai aneijun, ajetlang uva chun keipi mai aneijun, aveilang uva chun bongchal mai aneijun, chule anung lam uva chun muvanlai mai anei cheh uve.
As for the likeness of their faces, they had the face of a man; and they four had the face of a lion on the right side; and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four had also the face of an eagle.
11 Khat cheh chun lhaving kijal doh kopni cheh aneijun, kopn khat cheh chu akijal doh teng ganhing achom khat cheh lhaving chutoh akijop mat jel jengin, chule kop khat cheh chun atahsao akhu chah kheh cheh un ahi.
And their faces and their wings were separate above; two [wings] of every one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.
12 Amaho chu ipi hijongle lhagaovin alhenpeh nalam ngan ajet aveija kiheidoh lou hellin jangpet in ache pai jeng jiuve.
And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; they turned not when they went.
13 Ganhing liho chu meihol ampem puma kou abangin, ahilouleh meisel lou vah pempum kide abangin, chule kolphe vah bangin amaho lah a chun aki nungtol akima tollun ahi.
As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches: [the fire] went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.
14 Chule ganhing liho chu kolphe vahlap lap bang khun achom le jap jap jeng uvin ahi.
And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
15 Hitia keiman ganhing liho chu kavetna ahileh leiset chunga chun kangtalai kang ho chu akomuva chun kamun kang khat cheh chu amaho khat cheh a achandiu chu ahi.
Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold, one wheel upon the earth beside the living creatures, for each of the four faces thereof.
16 Kangtalai khat cheh chu hoitah a vahsetna song en tobanga kisemin akimun, liho chu abpn uvin kibang cheh akimun, chule amaho chu kibang cheh a kisem ahiuvin kang khat cheh velkol a chu kangni na aneicheh uve.
The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto a beryl: and they four had one likeness; and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel within a wheel.
17 Hiche ho chu akitol tengule kihei lou hella gamkai li a achu angat na lam lama chu kihei jeng thei ahiuve.
When they went, they went in their four directions: they turned not when they went.
18 Hiche kang li ho chu sang tah cheh ahiuvin, chule timul tho aumin, chule akang ho kimvel a chun met jeng mit jeng in atom dimsetne.
As for their rims, they were high and dreadful; and they four had their rims full of eyes round about.
19 Ganhing ho chu ache tenguleh kangtalai kang ho jong chu amaho toh thakhat'in achekhom jiuvin, chung langa alen tou teng uleh akang ho jong chu ache tou jiuve.
And when the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
20 Ganhing ho lhagao chu akang ho a chu uma ahi. Hijeh a chu lhagao chena lam lama chu akang ho le ganhing ho jong che jiu ahi.
Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went; thither was the spirit to go: and the wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
21 Hiche ho chu ache teng uleh akang ho chu che jiu ahin, hiche ho chu adin teng uleh akang ho kinga ji ahi. Hiche ho chu chung langa alen tou tengu leh akanga chu ganhing ho lhagao uma ahijeh chun akang ho chu akipat doh jiuvin ahi.
When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up beside them: for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
22 Aluvum uva kijal doh chu vanthamjol tobang khat akidalin songvalset vah'in avahsetne.
And over the head of the living creature there was the likeness of a firmament, like the terrible crystal to look upon, stretched forth over their heads above.
23 Anoija chun ganhing ho lhavingu chu khat leh khat kijop cheh in akijal doh in chule alhaving ni chun atahsau khat cheh chu akhun ahi.
And under the firmament were their wings straight, the one toward the other: every one had two which covered on this side, and every one had two which covered on that side, their bodies.
24 Alen teng ule alhaving ho gin husau chu keima jah in twitam tah in twipang hattah a atagin ahiloule Hatchungung ogin ahiloule, sepai hon tamtah husa gin bangin kajan ahi. Adin teng uleh alhaving u chu akhailha jiuve.
And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings like the noise of great waters, like the voice of the Almighty, a noise of tumult like the noise of a host: when they stood, they let down their wings.
25 Alhaving u akhailhah uva adin teng uleh vanthamjol tobang valset chunga kon chun o khat in thu ahin seijin ahi.
And there was a voice above the firmament that was over their heads: when they stood, they let down their wings.
26 Achung vum'a chun songval duma kisem laltouna tobang khat akimun ahi. Chule hiche laltouna sangtah chunga kitousah pachu mihem lim leh melput tobang ahi.
And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone; and upon the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man upon it above.
27 Akongbuh akipat akilah dan chu khichang vala meikou olla kimujap bangin akimun ahi. Chule akongbuh noilamse chu meikou tobang'in akimvel vah pempum bangin akimun ahi.
And I saw as it were glowing metal, 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 saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness round about him.
28 Gojuh nikho a meilah a lhagui kimu bang khun avah pempum in ahi. Hiche hi Pakai loupina keiman kamu abangin, keiman hichehi kamu phat in kamai tollah kasulut in ahileh ogin khat in keima koma ogin kkhat anasei chu kajan ahi.
As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of Jehovah. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
