Isaiah 32
1 Manghai tah duengnah neh manghai vetih mangpa rhoek loh a tiktam la boei uh ni.
Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment.
2 Te vaengah tah khohli vaengkah congket conglong neh hlipuei vaengkah a huephael bangla, rhamrhae kah sokca tui bangla, buhmueh rhathih khohmuen kah thaelpang puei kah hlipkhup bangla boeih om ni.
And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.
3 Aka hmu rhoek loh a mik buem uh voel pawt vetih aka ya kah a hna long khaw hnatung uh pawn ni.
And the eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the ears of them that hear shall hearken.
4 Thinko aka loe long khaw ming hamla a yakming ni. Ol khol khaw a loe la puk cal ni.
The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.
5 Hlang ang te hlangcong la khue voel pawt vetih ngukngak te hlang rhoeikhang ti nah mahpawh.
The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be bountiful.
6 Lailak la saii ham neh BOEIPA te rholrhaknah thui ham, akaang loh boethaehalang a thui tih a lungbuei kah boethae a saii. Hlang kah hinglu te bungpong la a kaeng tih tuihalh khaw tui-ok loh a vaitah sak.
For the vile person will speak villainy, and his heart will work iniquity, to practice hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
7 Ngukngak loh a boethae hnopai te khonuen rhamtat la a khueh tih, khodaeng loh tiktam a thui vaengah pataeng kodo mangdaeng te a honghi ol neh vueinan hamla caai.
The instruments also of the churl are evil: he devises wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaks right.
8 Tedae hlangcong long tah moeihoeihnah neh a uen tih moeihoeihnah neh pai van.
But the liberal devises liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand.
9 Mongkawt nu rhoek thoo uh lamtah ka ol hnatun uh. Palyal tanu rhoek ka olthui he hnakaeng uh lah.
Rise up, all of you women that are at ease; hear my voice, all of you careless daughters; give ear unto my speech.
10 Palyal rhoek te kum at hnin at ah na tlai uh bitni. Misurbit loh n'khah vetih cangah khaw pha mahpawh.
Many days and years shall all of you be troubled, all of you careless women: for the vintage shall fail, the gathering shall not come.
11 Mongkawt nu te lakueng saeh, palyal nu rhoek khaw tlai uh saeh. Hni te pit saeh lamtah a yal la a pumpu te vah saeh.
Tremble, all of you women that are at ease; be troubled, all of you careless ones: strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins.
12 Naidoeh lohma ham neh misur thaihsu ham te rhangsuk mah rhaengsae laeh.
They shall lament for the teats, for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.
13 Hling neh lota he ka pilnam kah hmuenlung ham a yam pah coeng tih, khorha kah omthennah dongah aka yalpo imkhui boeih ham pai ni.
Upon the land of my people shall come up thorns and briers; yea, upon all the houses of joy in the joyous city:
14 Impuei te a phap vetih khopuei a lilup khaw a hnoo ni. Molpuei neh rhaltawt imsang te kohong marhang kah a omthennah neh tuping uemnah la poeh vetih kumhal due lungtokhui la om ni.
Because the palaces shall be forsaken; the multitude of the city shall be left; the forts and towers shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks;
15 Hmuensang lamkah Mueihla te mamih soah han kingling vaengah tah khosoek khaw cangphil cangngol la poeh tih khoham cangphil cangngol bangla a poek.
Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness be a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.
16 Te vaengah tah khosoek ah tiktamnah loh kho a sak vetih, duengnah loh cangphil cangngol te a om thil ni.
Then judgment shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness remain in the fruitful field.
17 Duengnah kah a khoboe tah rhoepnah la, duengnah kah thohtatnah tah kumhal due mong vetih ngaikhuek la om ni.
And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
18 Ka pilnam long tah rhoepnah tolkhoeng neh pangtungnah tolhmuen ah duemnah neh a mongkawt la kho a sak ni.
And my people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places;
19 Te dongah duup khaw rhael aka bo loh a hnaa vetih khopuei khaw tlarhoelnah la kunyun ni.
When it shall hail, coming down on the forest; and the city shall be low in a low place.
20 Te dae tui kaeng te boeih aka tawn tih vaito neh laak kho neh aka tluek rhoek tah na yoethen uh.
Blessed are all of you that sow beside all waters, that send forth thither the feet of the ox and the ass.
