< Isaiah 25 >
1 YAHWEH namah ni ka Pathen. Namah te kan pomsang vetih na ming ni ka uem eh. Hlamat lamloh oltak uepomnah neh na cilsuep te khobaerhambae la na saii coeng.
O Lord, thou art my God, I will exalt thee, and give glory to thy name: for thou hast done wonderful things, thy designs of old faithful, amen.
2 Khopuei te khaw lungkuk la, khorha cakrhuet khaw imrhong la, khopuei lamkah kholong impuei te kumhal duela khoeng voel mahpawh.
For thou hast reduced the city to a heap, the strong city to ruin, the house of strangers, to be no city, and to be no more built up for ever.
3 Te dongah namtom khorha kah hlangtlung pilnam loh nang n'thangpom uh vetih hlanghaeng rhoek loh nang n'rhih uh ni.
Therefore shall a strong people praise thee, the city of mighty nations shall fear thee.
4 Tattloel ham lunghim la, khodaeng ham khaw lunghim la, rhal lakli neh khohli vaengah hlipyingnah, kholing vaengah hlipkhup la, hlanghaeng khohli vaengah hlipuei pangbueng bangla om coeng.
Because thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress: a refuge from the whirlwind, a shadow from the heat. For the blast of the mighty is like a whirlwind beating against a wall.
5 Rhamrhae kah kholing bangla, kholong kah longlonah khaw, kholing khaw khomai hlipkhup neh dup na hnah, hlanghaeng kah laa khaw na paa sak.
Thou shalt bring down the tumult of strangers, as heat in thirst: and as with heat under a burning cloud, thou shalt make the branch of the mighty to wither away.
6 Caempuei BOEIPA loh pilnam pum ham situi neh buhkoknah, sampa situi neh buhkoknah, hangnaeng a ciil a rhoe te tlang soah a saii pah ni.
And the Lord of hosts shall make unto all people in this mountain, a feast of fat things, a feast of wine, of fat things full of marrow, of wine purified from the lees.
7 Pilnam cungkuem soah maelhmai khuprhup aka cun neh namtom cungkuem soah mueihlawn aka khuk tah, hekah tlang ah a dolh ni.
And he shall destroy in this mountain the face of the bond with which all people were tied, and the web that he began over all nations.
8 Dueknah loh a yoeyah la a yoop ni. Maelhmai tom kah mikphi te, ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a huih vetih a pilnam sokah kokhahnah khaw diklai hman lamloh boeih a khoe ni. BOEIPA loh a thui ngawn coeng.
He shall cast death down headlong for ever: and the Lord God shall wipe away tears from every face, and the reproach of his people he shall take away from off the whole earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.
9 Tekah khohnin ah tah, “Mamih kah Pathen la ke, amah la n'lamtawn uh dongah la mamih n'khang he. BOEIPA amah te lamtawn uh coeng dongah omngaih uh sih lamtah amah kah khangnah khuiah kohoe sak uh sih,” a ti ni.
And they shall say in that day: Lo, this is our God, we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the Lord, we have patiently waited for him, we shall rejoice and be joyfull in his salvation.
10 Hekah tlang soah BOEIPA kah kut loh a om thil ni. Tedae aeknaeng tui dongkah cangkong a til bangla Moab te a hmuila a til ni.
For the hand of the Lord shall rest in this mountain: and Moab shall be trodden down under him, as straw is broken in pieces with the wain.
11 Tui aka ya loh tuiya ham a phuel uh bangla a laklung ah a kut a phuel vetih a boeimang neh a kut dongkah kutrham te khaw a kunyun pah ni.
And he shall stretch forth his hands under him, as he that swimmeth stretcheth forth his hands to swim: and he shall bring down his glory with the dashing of his hands.
12 Na imsang hmuencak vongtung te a kunyun sak vetih diklai laipi a ben duela a ngam sak ni.
And the bulwarks of thy high walls shall fall, and be brought low, and shall be pulled down to the ground, even to the dust.
