Isaiah 13
1 Amoz capa Isaiah loh Babylon kah olrhuh te a hmuh coeng.
The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see.
2 Tlang aka tlaai soah rholik thoh uh lah. Amih te ol huel thil uh lamtah kut hlaek pauh. Te daengah ni hlangcong thohka la a pawk uh eh.
Set ye up an ensign upon the high mountain, lift up the voice unto them, wave the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
3 Kamah kah ka ciim rhoek te kamah loh ka uen coeng. Ka hoemnah dongah aka yalpo ka hlangrhalh rhoek te ka thintoek ham rhung la ka khue bal.
I have commanded My consecrated ones, yea, I have called My mighty ones for mine anger, even My proudly exulting ones.
4 Tlang sokah hlangping ol tah pilnam mueiloh, namtom ram kah longlonah ol khaw bahoeng tingtun uh coeng. Caempuei BOEIPA loh caemtloek caempuei te a hip coeng.
Hark, a tumult in the mountains, like as of a great people! Hark, the uproar of the kingdoms of the nations gathered together! The LORD of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
5 BOEIPA tah diklai pum he laikoi hamla khohla bangsang kho lamkah neh vaan khobawt lamloh amah kah kosi tubael neh ha pawk uh coeng.
They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons of His indignation, to destroy the whole earth.
6 BOEIPA kah khohnin loh yoei coeng tih rhung uh laeh. Tlungthang taeng lamkah rhoelrhanah la ha pawk ni.
Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; as destruction from the Almighty shall it come.
7 Te dongah kut aka om khaw boeih kha vetih hlanghing kah thinko khaw boeih paci ni.
Therefore shall all hands be slack, and every heart of man shall melt.
8 Thohrhui khaw let vetih rhuihet aka tu ca-om bangla khaem uh ni. Amih maelhmai te hmaihluei la om vetih hlang loh amah hui te khaw maelhmai a hmaang ni.
And they shall be affrighted; pangs and throes shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman in travail; they shall look aghast one at another; their faces shall be faces of flame.
9 BOEIPA kah khohnin tah a thinpom neh muenying muenyang la ha pawk coeng ke. Khohmuen te imsuep la khueh ham thintoek thinsa neh ha pawk tih a khuikah hlangtholh rhoek te a mitmoeng sak pawn ni.
Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel, and full of wrath and fierce anger; to make the earth a desolation, and to destroy the sinners thereof out of it,
10 Vaan kah aisi neh amih kah buhol long khaw a aa thangthen mahpawh. Khomik khaw a thoeng vaengah hmuep vetih hla long khaw a vangnah neh tue voel mahpawh.
For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light; the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
11 Lunglai dongkah boethae neh halang rhoek kathaesainah te khaw ka cawh ni. Thinlen kah hoemdamnah te ka paa sak vetih, hlanghaeng hoemnah khaw ka kunyun ni.
And I will visit upon the world their evil, and upon the wicked their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the tyrants.
12 Hlanghing he suicilh lakah, tongpa he Ophir sui lakah ka kha sak.
I will make man more rare than fine gold, even man than the pure gold of Ophir.
13 Te dongah vaan te ka tlai sak vetih caempuei BOEIPA kah a thinpom neh amah kah thintoek thinsa khohnin ah tah diklai te a hmuen lamloh hinghuen ni.
Therefore I will make the heavens to tremble, and the earth shall be shaken out of her place, for the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and for the day of His fierce anger.
14 Te vaengah a heh uh kirhang neh boiva bangla om ni. Hlang loh a pilnam te a coi uh kolla mael uh vetih amah kho la rhip rhaelrham uh ni.
And it shall come to pass, that as the chased gazelle, and as sheep that no man gathereth, they shall turn every man to his own people, and shall flee every man to his own land.
15 A hmuh carhui a thun vetih a khoengvoep nah la cunghang neh boeih a cungku sak ni.
Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is caught shall fall by the sword.
16 Amih kah a ca rhoek te a mikhmuh ah a til pah ni. A im te a reth pa uh vetih a yuu rhoek taengah a yalh rhoe a yalh pa uh ni.
Their babes also shall be dashed in pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
17 Amih taengah kamah loh tangka aka moeh pawt tih sui aka ngaih pawh Madai te ka haeng pah coeng he.
Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, who shall not regard silver, and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.
18 Camoe rhoek te liva neh a taam uh vetih bungko thaihtae te khaw haidam uh mahpawh. A ca rhoek te amih kah mik loh rhen uh mahpawh.
And their bows shall dash the young men in pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children.
19 Ram tom kah kirhang neh Khalden kah hoemdamnah a boei a mang, Babylon tah Pathen kah imrhong- Sodom neh Gomorrah bangla om ni.
And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans' pride, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
20 Babylon te a yoeyah la om pawt vetih thawnpuei phoeikah cadilcahma duela om mahpawh. Te vaengah Arab khaw puen uh pawt vetih boiva aka dawn khaw te ah te kol uh mahpawh.
It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation; neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there.
21 Te vaengah kohong loh pahoi a kol thil vetih a im ah huiha loh bae ni. Tuirhuk vanu loh hnap a rhaeh thil vetih sathai loh a cungpet thil ni.
But wild-cats shall lie there; and their houses shall be full of ferrets; and ostriches shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there.
22 A lohnong ah sa-ui kuk vetih a bawkim ah pongui loh pangdoknah a khueh ni. A tue ha pawk ham yoei coeng tih a khohnin tah koe voel mahpawh.
And jackals shall howl in their castles, and wild-dogs in the pleasant palaces; and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged.
