< Isaiah 27 >
1 Tekah khohnin ah tah BOEIPA loh a cunghang aka ning tih aka len neh aka tlungluen neh Leviathan rhul aka yingyet khaw, Leviathan rhul kawl khaw a cawh ni. Te vaengah tuipuei kah tuihnam te khaw a ngawn ni.
On that day will the Lord punish with his heavy and great and strong sword leviathan the flying serpent, and leviathan the crooked servant; and he will slay the crocodile that is in the sea.
2 Tekah khohnin ah tah naidoeh misurdum te doo laeh.
On that day sing ye a song of the vineyard of excellent wine.
3 BOEIPA kamah loh te ka kueinah tih mikhaptok ah ka suep. Te te khoyin loh cawh ve ka ti dongah khothaih ah ka kueinah.
“I the Lord do keep it; every moment will I water it: that no one shall hurt it, night and day will I keep it.
4 Kosi he kai taengah om pawh. Caemtloek vaengkah lota hling kai taengah aka pae te unim? Te te cuk thil vetih rhenten ka hlup mako.
Wrath have I not: who would set the briers and thorns against me in battle? I would pass through them, and I would burn them altogether.
5 Te cakhaw ka lunghim te hangdang thil saeh lamtah kamah taengah rhoepnah saii saeh, kamah taengah rhoepnah saii saeh.
If he but take hold of my strength, make peace with me; make peace with me.”
6 A yung a hlak tue a pha vaengah Jakob te khooi ni. Te vaengah Israel khaw saihnim vetih a thaih loh lunglai ah baetawt ni.
In the future shall Jacob yet take root; Israel shall bud and blossom, and shall fill the face of the world with fruit.
7 Hmasoe banglam nim anih te a boh khaw a boh aih? Ngawnnah banglam nim a ngawn khaw a ngawn aih.
Hath he smitten him, as he smote the one that smote him? or was he slain with the same slaughter as those of him that were slain?
8 A rhimong la tueih ham na mah coeng. A hil neh khothaih kanghawn bangla khak a haek.
In measure, by driving him forth, thou strivest with him: he removed him with his violent storm on the day of the east wind.
9 Te dongah he nen ni Jakob kathaesainah a dawth pah vetih a tholh kah a thaih boeih he a khoe pa eh. Te vaengah hmueihtuk kah lungto boeih te lungbok lung bangla a khueh ni. Asherah neh bunglawn a dae pah vetih te thoo voel mahpawh.
Therefore by this [only] shall the iniquity of Jacob be atoned; and this shall be all the fruit of the taking away of his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as limestones that are beaten in pieces, when there shall not arise again any groves and sun-images.
10 Khopuei cakrhuet tolkhoeng bueng te a hlah tih, khosoek bangla a hnoo. Vaito ca loh hnap a luem thil tih pahoi a kol thil vaengah tah a boe khaw a thok sak.
For [by this] the fortified city shall be desolate, the habitation be forsaken, and left like a wilderness; there shall the calf feed, and there shall it lie down, and consume its branches.
11 A vuei aka rhae he a khaem uh. Huta ha pawk vaengah te a tok uh dae pilnam kah yakmingnah om pawh. Te dongah anih aka saii loh anih a haidam tih anih aka saii loh anih te rhen pawh.
When its boughs are withered, they shall be broken off; women will come and set them on fire; for it is not a people of understanding; therefore he that made it will not have mercy on it, and he that formed it will show it no favor.
12 Tekah khohnin a pha vaengah tuiva lamloh Egypt soklong duela cangmo te BOEIPA loh a boh ni. Nangmih Israel ca rhoek te pakhat phoeiah pakhat n'yoep ni.
And it shall come to pass on that day, that the Lord will beat off [the fruit] from the channel of the River up to the brook of Egypt; but ye shall be gathered up one by one, ye children of Israel.
13 Tekah khohnin a pha vaengah tuki a len te a ueng vetih Assyria khohmuen ah aka milh khaw ha pawk uh ni. Egypt kho kah a heh rhoek loh Jerusalem kah tlang cim dongah BOEIPA a bawk uh ni.
And it shall come to pass on that day, that the great cornet shall be blown, and then shall come those who are lost in the land of Asshur, and those who are outcasts in the land of Egypt, and they shall prostrate themselves before the Lord on the holy mount at Jerusalem.
