Isaiah 4

1 Tekah khohnin ah tah huta parhih loh tongpa pakhat te a mawt uh vetih, “Kaimih kah buh he ca uh sih lamtah ka himbai he bai uh sih. Kaimih ham nang ming te khue saeh lamtah kaimih kokhahnah khum puei mai,” a ti uh ni.

In that day shall seven women lay hold of one man saying: We will eat our own bread, And wear our own garments, Only let us be called by thy name, And take away our reproach!

2 Tekah khohnin ah BOEIPA kah a dawn te kirhang la, thangpomnah la, khohmuen kah a thaih te mingthennah la, Israel kah rhalyong te boeimang la poeh ni.

In that day shall the increase of Jehovah be glorious and honorable, And the fruit of the land excellent and beautiful, For them that have escaped of Israel.

3 Zion kah aka sueng, Jerusalem ah aka sueng, Jerusalem kah hingnah dongah la a daek boeih te hlangcim la a khue ni.

All that remain in Zion, And all that are left in Jerusalem, Shall be called holy; Every one that is written down for life in Jerusalem.

4 Zion nu kah a khawt neh Jerusalem kah a thii te Boeipa loh a silh pah ni. A kotak lamkah tiktamnah mueihla neh a hoek vetih mueihla neh a hlup ni.

When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, And have removed the blood of Jerusalem from the midst of her, By a spirit of judgment and a spirit of destruction,

5 Te vaengah Zion tlang kah a hmuen takuem neh, a tingtunnah ah, khothaih ah hmaikhu neh cingmai, khoyin ah hmaisai neh hmai aa te imkhui kah thangpomnah boeih soah BOEIPA loh a suen pah ni.

Then shall Jehovah create upon the whole extent of mount Zion, and upon her places of assembly, A cloud and smoke by day, And the brightness of a flaming fire by night; Yea, for all that is glorious there shall be a shelter;

6 Khothaih kholing vaengah poca hlipkhup la, khotlan tuihli lamloh hlipyingnah neh kuepkolnah la om ni.

There shall be a tent by day for a shadow from the heat, And for a refuge and shelter from the storm and rain.
