Isaiah 14
1 BOEIPA loh Jakob te a haidam vetih Israel te koep a coelh ni. Amih te amah khohmuen ah a khueh vetih yinlai loh amih taengah naep ni. Te vaengah yinlai khaw Jakob imkhui la thawth uh ni.
FOR the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
2 Amih te pilnam loh a khuen vetih amah hmuen la a thak ni. BOEIPA kah khohmuen ah amih te Israel imkhui kah salnu neh salpa la a pang uh ni. Te vaengah amih kah a sol te a hlang sol a khueh uh vetih amih aka tueihno rhoek te a taemrhai uh ni.
And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the Lord for servants and handmaids: and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
3 Na tloh khui lamloh, nang kah khoponah khui lamloh, nang taengah manghkhak la aka thohtat sak thohtatnah lamloh nang duem sak ham BOEIPA kah khohnin ha pawk ni.
And it shall come to pass in the day that the Lord shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve,
4 Te vaengah Babylon manghai taengah thuidoeknah he na khuen vetih, “Tueihno te metlam a paa tih thisanah a kangkuen mai.
That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased!
5 BOEIPA loh halang kah conghol neh boei kah mancai khaw a khaem pah coeng.
The Lord hath broken the staff of the wicked, and the sceptre of the rulers.
6 Hmasoe kah a thinpom neh pilnam a ngawn. Koeknah pawt khaw, thintoek neh a namtom taemrhai tih, phaepnah te tuem pawh.
He who smote the people in wrath with a continual stroke, he that ruled the nations in anger, is persecuted, and none hindereth.
7 Duem aka mong diklai pum khaw tamlung neh rhong uh coeng.
The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing.
8 Hmaical loh nang te n'kokhah thil tih na yalh vaeng lamkah long ni Lebanon lamphai loh, “Mamih aka vung te pongpa voel pawh,” a ti coeng.
Yea, the fir trees rejoice at thee, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying, Since thou art laid down, no feller is come up against us.
9 Saelkhui te nang doe hamla ha pawk vaengah nang ham te a laedil ah tlai coeng. Diklai kikong boeih kah sairhai te nang hamla a haeng coeng tih namtom manghai boeih te a ngolkhoel lamloh a thoh sak. (Sheol h7585)
Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
10 Amih te boeih a doo uh vetih nang taengah, “Namah khaw kaimih bangla na nue coeng tih kaimih bang boeiloeih la na om coeng.
All they shall speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? art thou become like unto us?
11 Na hoemdamnah na thangpa ol te, Saelkhui la a suntlak sak coeng. Namah hmui ah arhit phaih uh tih na dakda talam la poeh coeng,” na ti uh bitni. (Sheol h7585)
Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee. (Sheol h7585)
12 Yaoe thuipa khaw vaan lamloh na cungku mai tih khothaih capa khaw diklai la m'vung tih namtom taengah aka rhaa uh mai.
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13 Nang khaw na thinko ah,” Vaan la ka luei hang vetih Pathen kah aisi soah ka ngolkhoel ka pomsang saeh lamtah tlangpuei tlanghlaep kah tingtunnah tlang ah ka ngol eh.
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 Hmuensang khomai dongah ka cet vetih Khohni te ka puet eh?,” na ti.
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. (Sheol h7585)
16 Nang aka hmu rhoek loh namah te m'hmaitang uh. Nang kawng te, “Diklai aka tlai sak tih ram aka hinghuen hlang te a?
They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
17 Lunglai te khosoek la aka khueh tih khopuei khaw a koengloeng. A thongtla te im la hlah pawh,” tila m'hmat uh.
That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?
18 Namtom manghai boeih khaw a thangpomnah neh a im ah a pum la rhip yalh uh.
All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house.
19 Tedae nang te thingpae bangla na phuel lamloh m'voeih. cunghang neh a thun tih a ngawn kah pueinak bangla n'tuei coeng. Lungto tangrhom khuila aka suntla rhok bangla n'suntlae coeng.
But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.
20 Na khohmuen kah na pilnam te na phae tih na ngawn coeng dongah phuel ah khaw amih te pitpom sak mahpawh. Thaehuet rhoek kah tiingan tah kumhal duela thoel boel saeh.
Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned.

Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they do not rise, nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world with cities.
22 Amih voelah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong te ka thoh puei vetih Babylon ming neh a ca aka sueng te khaw, a cadil khaw ka saii ni. BOEIPA olphong coeng ni he.
For I will rise up against them, saith the Lord of hosts, and cut off from Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the Lord.
23 Khopuei te kharhoeng hut neh tuibap tui la ka khueh ni. Lungtang neh ka nawt vetih ka mitmoeng sak ni. Caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni he.
I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water: and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the Lord of hosts.
24 Caempuei BOEIPA loh a toemngam tih, “Ka cai bangla om tangloeng tih ka uen bangla a thoh tangkhuet moenih a? a ti.
The Lord of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:
25 Ka khohmuen kah Assyria khaem hamla ka tlang dongah ka suntlae ni. Te vaengah amih lamkah a hnamkun te a dul vetih a laengpang dong lamkah a hnorhih a hal ni.
That I will break the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders.
26 Hekah cilsuep he diklai pum ham ni a. poek tih kut he khaw namtom rhoek boeih a thueng thil coeng.
This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations.
27 caempuei BOEIPA loh a uen coeng dongah u long a phae voel. A kut te a thueng coeng dongah u long a yueh thai voel.
For the Lord of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? and his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
28 Manghai Ahaz a dueknah kum ah hekah olrhuh he ha pawk.
In the year that king Ahaz died was this burden.
29 Nang aka ngawn mancai a tlawt te Philistia nang loh boeih kokhahnah boeh. Rhul a yung te rhulthae la thoeng vetih a thaih te aka ding minyuk la poeh ni.
Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent’s root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent.
30 Tattloel rhoek kah caming rhoek te luem uh vetih khodaeng rhoek khaw ngaikhuek la kol uh ni. Tedae na yung te khokha neh ka duek sak vetih na meet te a ngawn ni.
And the firstborn of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety: and I will kill thy root with famine, and he shall slay thy remnant.
31 Vongka nang rhung laeh. Khopuei nang pang laeh. Tlangpuei lamkah hmaikhu ha thoeng tih a caempa khuiah a pangoe pawt dongah Philistia nang tah boeih paci coeng.
Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestina, art dissolved: for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his appointed times.
32 BOEIPA loh Zion a suen tih a khuiah a pilnam mangdaeng a ying ham te namtom puencawn loh metlam a doo eh.
What shall one then answer the messengers of the nation? That the Lord hath founded Zion, and the poor of his people shall trust in it.
