¹Huchiin bila ka jakin, Khopi kemmite mi chih hihmanna van tawiin hongnai uhen, chiin ngaihtakin a kikou a.

¹He cried also in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, Cause them that have charge over the city to draw near, even every man with his destroying weapon in his hand.

²Huan ngai in, mallam kongpi tungnung paina akipanin mi guk a hongpai ua, mi chihin hihlupna van a tawi chiat ua; huan alai ua mi khat puan malngat silhin laituibuk a kuah hi. Huan a lut ua, dal maitam chinah a ding uhi.

²And, behold, six men came from the way of the higher gate, which lieth toward the north, and every man a slaughter weapon in his hand; and one man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer's inkhorn by his side: and they went in, and stood beside the brasen altar.

³Huan Israelte Pathian thupina a omna cherub akipanin huai in kongpi chinah a pai toua; huan, puan malngat silh, laituibuk kuahpa a sama.

³And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, whereupon he was, to the threshold of the house. And he called to the man clothed with linen, which had the writer's inkhorn by his side;

⁴Huan TOUPAN a kiangah, Khopi phang inla, Jerusalem phang suakin; a sunga thil kihhuai hihsate jiaka tunggika kap sekte a tal uah chiamtehin, a chi a.

⁴And the LORD said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.

⁵Huan mi dangte kiangah ka jak mahmahin, A nungah khopi phang suak unla, khut kha un, na mit un muh maih kei henla, hehpih sam kei un.

⁵And to the others he said in mine hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity:

⁶Putek te, tangval te, nungak te, naupangte leh nute that siang vek un. Chiamtehna neite bel honnaih kei uh; ka mun siangthou ah pan un, a chi a. Huchiin, biakinn konga upate in a panta uhi.

⁶Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house.

⁷Huan, aman ka kingah, In hihbuah unla, a um sung te mi luangin dimsak unla: pawt un, a chi a. Huan, a pawtta ua, khopi ah a gamtang ta uh.

⁷And he said unto them, Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city.

⁸Huan, hichi ahi a, khopi ah a gamtat lai un kei bel nutsiatin ka naoma, a khupin ka puka. Aw TOUPA PATHIAN, Jerusalem tunga na heh sun buak ah Israel om sunte leng na hihmang vek sin ahia? chiin ka kikou a.

⁸And it came to pass, while they were slaying them, and I was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord GOD! wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel in thy pouring out of thy fury upon Jerusalem?

⁹Huchiin aman ka kiangah, Israel leh Juda inkote thulimlouhna a thupi tela ahi. Gam sisanin a dima: TOUPAN bangmah a mu sama! a chi ngal ua.

⁹Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceeding great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of perverseness: for they say, The LORD hath forsaken the earth, and the LORD seeth not.

¹⁰Ken leng ka muh maih kei dinga, ka hehpih sam kei ding hi; a gitlouh uh a buk a bekin amau ka khusak ding, a chi a.Huan ngai in, puan malngat silha laituibuk kuahpan thu a tuna, Na honthu piak bangin ka hihkhinta, a chi a.

¹⁰And as for me also, mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity, but I will recompense their way upon their head.

¹¹Huan ngai in, puan malngat silha laituibuk kuahpan thu a tuna, Na honthu piak bangin ka hihkhinta, a chi a.

¹¹And, behold, the man clothed with linen, which had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as thou hast commanded me.
