Ezekiel 4
1 Thou also, son of man, take thee a tile, and lay it before thee, and pourtray upon it a city, even Jerusalem:
Nang hlang capa namah loh laiboeng lo lamtah namah mikhmuh ah tloeng laeh. A soah Jerusalem khopuei te tarhit laeh.
2 and lay siege against it, and build forts against it, and cast up a mount against it; set camps also against it, and plant battering rams against it round about.
A taengah vong khueh pah lamtah a taengah buep khueh pah. A taengah tanglung khueng lamtah a taengah rhaehhmuen khueh. A kaepvai te maehdoelh khueh pah.
3 And take thou unto thee an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city: and set thy face toward it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.
Te phoeiah namah loh thi thiphael te namah ham lo lamtah namah laklo neh khopuei laklo ah thi pangbueng la khueh. Te vaengah na maelhmai te a taengla hoi pah. Vongup ah a om bangla la khopuei te na dum bitni. He miknoek he Israel imkhui ham ni.
4 Moreover lie thou upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: [according to] the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it, thou shalt bear their iniquity.
Te phoeiah nang te banvoei kah na vae neh yalh lamtah Israel imkhui kathaesainah te a soah tloeng pah. A soah na yalh khohnin tarhing ah amih kathaesainah te na phueih ni.
5 For I have appointed the years of their iniquity to be unto thee a number of days, even three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
Amih kathaesainah kum tarhing bangla nang te kan tueih tih khohnin ya thum neh hnin sawmko ah Israel imkhui kathaesainah te na phueih van ni.
6 And again, when thou hast accomplished these, thou shalt lie on thy right side, and shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah: forty days, each day for a year, have I appointed it unto thee.
Te rhoek te na coeng van neh na vae bantang dongah yalh lamtah Judah imkhui kathaesainah te khohnin la hnin sawmli phueih pah. A kum la kum ham te hnin at ni nang kan tueih.
7 And thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with thine arm uncovered; and thou shalt prophesy against it.
Te phoeiah Jerusalem vong la na maelhmai hooi lamtah na ban te khawn lamtah, a taengah tonghma pah.
8 And, behold, I lay bands upon thee, and thou shalt not turn thee from one side to another, till thou hast accomplished the days of thy siege.
Te vaengah nang dongah rhuivaeh kang khih ni ne. Te dongah na vongup kah khohnin na poeng hill na vae khat ben lamloh na vae khat ben duela na hoi uh thai mahpawh.
9 Take thou also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make thee bread thereof; [according to] the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side, even three hundred and ninety days, shalt thou eat thereof.
Te phoeiah namah loh namah ham cang neh cangtun, maidawn neh rhacik, malket neh cangkuem khaw lo ne. Te te amrhaeng pakhat dongah pae uh lamtah na vae neh na yalh khohnin tarhing ah na buh la te te khueh. Khohnin ya thum sawmko khuiah te te ca.
10 And thy meat which thou shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shalt thou eat it.
Na caak te khaw a khiing la shekel pakul mah ca. A khohnin ham te a tue, a tue vaengah ca.
11 And thou shalt drink water by measure, the sixth part of an hin: from time to time shalt thou drink.
Tui khaw khoe dongah bunang parhuk o lamtah a tue a tue vaengah o.
12 And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it in their sight with dung that cometh out of man.
Cangtun buh te na caak vaengah hlang kah natcaeh aek neh amih mikhmuh ah hai.
13 And the LORD said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations whither I will drive them.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh, “Israel ca he tlam ni a buh rhalawt te a caak uh eh. Amih tenamtom taengah pahoi ka heh ni,” a ti.
14 Then said I, Ah Lord GOD! behold, my soul hath not been polluted: for from my youth up even till now have I not eaten of that which dieth of itself, or is torn of beasts; neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth;
Tedae, “Ka Boeipa Yahovah aw, ka hinglu he maehrhok saha neh a poeih vai moenih ne. Ka camoe lamloh tahae hil ka ca vai pawt tih maeh khaw ka ka ah dikyik dikyak ka a kun moenih,” ka ti nah.
15 Then he said unto me, See, I have given thee cow’s dung for man’s dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread thereon.
Te vaengah kai te “Ana so, hlang aek yueng la vaito aek ni nang taengah aek la kam paek vetih na buh te a soah tawn,” a ti.
16 Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight, and with carefulness; and they shall drink water by measure, and with astonishment:
Te phoeiah kai te, “Hlang capa aw, Jerusalem kah thahuelnah buh te ka bawt pah coeng. Te dongah buh te amah tarhing ah mawnnah neh a caak uh vetih tui te khoe dongah a maehmanah neh a ok uh ni.
17 that they may want bread and water, and be astonied one with another, and pine away in their iniquity.
Buh neh tui a vaitah vetih hlang neh a manuca pong ni. Te vaengah amamih kathaesainah dongah muei uh ni.
