< Ezekiel 30 >

1 BAWIPA e lawk kai koe bout a pha teh,
Another message from the Lord came to me, saying,
2 tami capa lawk dei haw, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, Aiyoe! hote hnin hanelah hram haw.
“Son of man, prophesy and announce that this is what the Lord God says: Weep! This is a terrible day!
3 Hote hnin a hnai toe. BAWIPA e hnin a hnai toe. Khopâuinae hnin, miphunnaw rawpnae hnin,
The day is soon coming—the Day of the Lord is near. It will be a gloomy, cloudy day, a time of judgment for the nations.
4 Izip lathueng vah tahloi a pha vaiteh, Ethiopia lathueng vah, lungtangponae hnin a pha han. Izip vah thei e naw a rawp toteh, a taminaw koung la pouh vaiteh, adu ungnae be raphoe pouh han.
A sword will come to attack Egypt, and there will be anguish in Cush when people are killed in Egypt, when it's robbed of its wealth and the country ruined.
5 Ethiopia, Put hoi Lud ka kambawng e tamihu pueng, Khubnaw, kâhuiko e khocanaw pueng teh Izipnaw hoi tahloi hoi reirei a due awh han.
Cush, Put, and Lud, and many other peoples, as well as Arabia, Kub, and the people of the promised land, they all, like Egypt, will be killed by the sword.
6 BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, Izip ram ka dounrouk nakunghai a rawp vaiteh, a due han. Izip ram thasainae a bawilennae a pout han. Migdol hoi Syene totouh, tahloi hoi be a due awh han, telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei.
This is what the Lord says: Egypt's allies will fall, and the country will lose its prestigious position. From Migdol in the north to Syene in the south, they will be killed by the sword, declares the Lord God.
7 Ka rawk e ramnaw dawk buet touh e lah ao han. Kingdi e khopuinaw dawk Izip khonaw hai a bawk awh han.
Egypt will become more of a wasteland than any other country, and its towns will be left in ruins.
8 Izip ram dawk hmai ka tâco sak vaiteh, kabawmkungnaw be ka raphoe torei teh, BAWIPA lah ka o tie a panue awh han.
Then they will acknowledge that I am the Lord when I set fire to Egypt and all its allies are crushed.
9 Hot hnin navah, ka kâhruetcuet hoeh e Ethiopianaw, kâran sak hanelah, kai koehoi patounenaw teh amamae long hoi a cei awh han. Izip ram e hnin patetlah lungthin reithainae hah ahnimae a lathueng a pha han, khenhaw! atu a pha lahun.
At that time I will send messengers in ships to shock Cush out of its sense of security. They will tremble in fear when disasters hit Egypt. Watch out! It's definitely coming!
10 Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar e kut hoi Izip taminaw pueng be ka thei han.
This is what the Lord God says: I will use Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to take away Egypt's wealth.
11 Ram raphoe hanelah, ama hoi a san miphunnaw koe takikathopoung e hah pha sak e lah ao han, Izip lathueng vah tahloi palik awh vaiteh ram teh tami ro hoi a kawi sak awh han.
He and his army from the cruelest nation in the world will be brought to destroy the country. They will use their swords to attack Egypt, and they will fill the land with dead bodies.
12 Hahoi tuipui hah ka hak sak vaiteh, ram teh tamikayonnaw koe ka yo han. A ram hoi a thung e kaawm pueng hah miphunnaw e kut hoi be ka raphoe han, kai BAWIPA ni ka dei toe telah ati.
I will dry up the rivers and sell the land to wicked people. Using these foreigners I will ruin the land and everything in it. I the Lord have spoken.
13 Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei, meikaphawk hai ka raphoe han, Noph hoi meikaphawk hah ka pâmit han, Izip ram dawk Bawi roeroe awm mahoeh toe, Izip ram dawk taki lungpuennae hah ka o sak han.
This is what the Lord God says: I'm going to destroy the idols and get rid of the images in Memphis. There won't be a prince in Egypt any longer, and I will make everyone in the country terrified.
14 Pathros hah kai ni ka raphoe han, Zoan vah hmai ka tâco sak vaiteh, No kho dawk lawkcengnae ka kuep sak han.
I will destroy Pathros, set Zoan on fire, and punish Thebes.
15 Izip kalupnae Sin kho lathueng vah, ka lungkhueknae ka kamnue sak vaiteh, No khocanaw hah be ka thei han.
I will pour out my wrath on Pelusium, Egypt's fortress town, and wipe out the army at Thebes.
16 Izip ram dawk hmai ka tâco sak han, Sin kho teh, kângai mathoe awh han. No kho hai be a tip han. Noph kho teh, hnintangkuem a kângairu han.
I will set fire to Egypt, Pelusium will suffer, Thebes will be ripped apart, and Memphis will face trouble every day.
17 Aven kho hoi Pibeseth thoundounnaw hah tahloi hoi a due awh han. Hete khopuinaw hah san lah a ceikhai awh han.
The young soldiers of Heliopolis and Bubastis will fall by the sword, and the people from those towns will be taken captive.
18 Izip tahroe hah ka khoe vaiteh, a kâoupkhai e a thasainae hah ka pout sak navah, Taphanhes vah khodai nah kho a hmo han. Khopâui vaiteh kho thung e canunaw teh san lah a man awh han.
It will be a dark day in Tahpanhes when I break Egypt's power and bring to an end their proud strength. It will be under a cloud as the people go into captivity.
19 Hettelah Izip ram vah lawkcengnae hah ka kuep sak han, hottelah kai teh BAWIPA lah ka o tie a panue awh han telah ati.
This is how I'm going to punish Egypt, and they will acknowledge that I am the Lord.”
20 Kum hlaibun, thapa yung pasuek, hnin sari hnin BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
On the seventh day of the first month of the eleventh year, a message from the Lord came to me, saying,
21 Tami capa Izip siangpahrang Faro e a kut hah ka khoe pouh toe. Khenhaw! tahloi patuep thai totouh, bout a thasai nahanelah, tâsi hluk teh bout kawm mahoeh toe.
“Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. You can see that it hasn't been bandaged up to heal it, or put it in a splint to provide enough strength to hold a sword.
22 Hatdawkvah, Bawipa Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Khenhaw! Izip ram Faro hah ka taran. Kâkhoe tangcoung e a kut hah a hawinae koelae hai bout ka khoe han, hahoi a kut dawk e tahloi hah a kut dawk hoi ka bo sak han.
So this is what the Lord God says: Watch out, because I'm condemning Pharaoh king of Egypt! I will break his arms, both the one that's still good and the one already broken, and I will make him drop his sword.
23 Izipnaw hah miphunnaw rahak hoi kâkayei sak vaiteh, ram tangkuem koe ka yawng sak han.
I will scatter the Egyptians among the different nations and countries.
24 Babilon kut hah a thasai sak vaiteh, a kut dawk tahloi ka sin sak han. Faro e kut teh ka khoe pouh han. Siangpahrang hmalah, ahni teh due hane patetlah a hmâ ka cat e patetlah a hram han.
I will make the arms of the king of Babylon strong, and put my sword in his hand, but I will break Pharaoh's arms, and he will moan in pain like someone who's about to die.
25 Babilon siangpahrang e a kut a thasai sak vaiteh, Faro e kut teh be a kamyai han. Babilon siangpahrang e kut dawk tahloi ka poe vaiteh, Izip ram taranlahoi a palik navah, kai teh BAWIPA lah ka o tie hah a panue awh han.
I will make the arms of Babylon's king strong, but Pharaoh's arms will drop to his sides, weak and useless. Then they will acknowledge that I am the Lord, when I put my sword in the hand of the king of Babylon and he uses it to attack Egypt.
26 Izipnaw hah miphunnaw thung hoi kâkayei sak vaiteh, ram tangkuem koe koung ka pâlei han, hahoi BAWIPA lah ka o tie hah a panue awh han, telah ati.
When I scatter the Egyptians among the different nations and countries, they will acknowledge that I am the Lord.”
