Isaiah 29
1 Anunae Ariel, David loh a rhaeh thil Ariel khorha aih, a kum, kum ah n'koei saeh lamtah khotue te vael uh nawn.
Ah altar, altar of the citie that Dauid dwelt in: adde yere vnto yere: let them kill lambs.
2 Ariel te ka kilh vetih rhahdueknah neh ngueknah om bitni. Te vaengah hmueihtuk la ka taengah om ni.
But I wil bring the altar into distresse, and there shalbe heauines and sorowe, and it shall be vnto me like an altar.
3 Nang te kaluek la kang rhaeh thil vetih nang taengah laivung kan lun ni. Te phoeiah nang taengah kasam ka too ni.
And I wil besiege thee as a circle, and fight against thee on a mount, and will cast vp ramparts against thee.
4 Na kunyun vaengah diklai lamloh m'voek vetih na olthui loh laipi lamkah n'rhuepthuep sak ni. Te vaengah na ol te diklai lamloh rhaitonghma bangla ha om vetih, laipi khui lamkah na olthui loh a muep ni.
So shalt thou be humbled, and shalt speake out of the ground, and thy speach shalbe as out of the dust: thy voyce also shall be out of the ground like him that hath a spirite of diuination, and thy talking shall whisper out of the dust.
5 Tedae nang taengah aka lueng he laipi canghet bangla muep om ni. Hlanghaeng hlangping khaw cangkik bangla poeng vetih buengrhuet la pahoi om ni.
Moreouer, the multitude of thy strangers shalbe like small dust, and the multitude of strong men shalbe as chaffe that passeth away, and it shall be in a moment, euen suddenly.
6 caempuei BOEIPA loh, khohum neh, lingluei neh, cangpalam puei kah ol neh, hlipuei neh ng'hip vetih hmai khuikah hmaihluei loh n'hlawp ni.
Thou shalt be visited of the Lord of hostes with thunder, and shaking, and a great noyse, a whirlewinde, and a tempest, and a flame of a deuouring fire.
7 Ariel aka muk namtom boeih neh aka muk carhui boeih, te te aka kilh a rhalvong te khaw hlaempang kah a mangthui tah mang pakhat neh a lilup la om ni.
And the multitude of all the nations that fight against the altar, shalbe as a dreame or vision by night: euen all they that make the warre against it, and strong holdes against it, and lay siege vnto it.
8 Bungpong khaw mang a man vaengkah bangla om ni. A caak coeng akhaw a haenghang neh a hinglu hoep hailek tih tuihalh ni a man. A ok akhaw a haenghang vaengah a buhmueh rhathih neh a hinglu halthi coeng ke. Tangkuet la Zion tlang aka muk namtom boeih khaw hlangping la om ni.
And it shalbe like as an hungry man dreameth, and beholde, he eateth: and when he awaketh, his soule is emptie: or like as a thirsty man dreameth, and loe, he is drinking, and when he awaketh, beholde, he is faint, and his soule longeth: so shall the multitude of all nations be that fight against mount Zion.
9 Uelh uh laeh, ngaihmang neh na mik buem uh. Mik buem rhuihmil neh a ngaengai te misurtui nen moenih, yu nen bal moenih.
Stay your selues, and wonder: they are blinde, and make you blinde: they are drunken but not with wine: they stagger, but not by strong drinke.
10 BOEIPA loh mikku mueihla te nang soah ham bueih tih na mik na hna nah tonghma rhoek te a tahoeng sak tih na lu nah khohmu rhoek te a dah pah coeng.
For the Lord hath couered you with a spirite of slumber, and hath shut vp your eyes: the Prophets, and your chiefe Seers hath he couered.
11 Mangthui boeih he miknoek a daeng. cabu dongah nangmih ham ol la om coeng. Te te cabu aka hmat taengah a paek tih, “Tae mai he,” a ti nah. Tedae, “Te te miknoek a daeng tih ka noeng moenih,” a ti nah.
And the vision of them all is become vnto you, as the wordes of a booke that is sealed vp, which they deliuer to one that can reade, saying, Reade this, I pray thee. Then shall he say, I can not: for it is sealed.
12 Cabu te cabu aka ming pawt taengah a paek tih, “Tae dae he,” a ti nah hatah, “Ca ka ming moenih,” a ti.
And the booke is giuen vnto him that can not reade, saying, Reade this, I pray thee. And he shall say, I can not reade.
13 Te dongah ka Boeipa loh, “Pilnam long he a ka kak neh ha mop tih a hmui kak neh kai n'thangpomuh. A lungbuei tah kai lamloh a lakhla sak. Hlang kah olpaek a cang neh kai aka rhih bangla om.
Therefore the Lord sayd, Because this people come neere vnto me with their mouth, and honour me with their lips, but haue remooued their heart farre from me, and their feare toward me was taught by the precept of men,
14 Te dongah pilnam he khobaerhambae neh mueipuel sak ham mueipuel hnatlak la ka koei ni he. Te vaengah aka cueih rhoek kah cueihnah he paltham vetih aka yakming rhoek kah yakmingnah khaw thuh uh ni.
Therefore behold, I wil againe doe a marueilous worke in this people, euen a marueilous worke, and a wonder: for the wisdome of their wise men shall perish, and the vnderstanding of their prudent men shalbe hid.
15 Anunae cilsuep thuh ham te BOEIPA taeng lamloh aka muelh uh mai. A khoboe uh khaw khohmuep khuikah la om rhoe tih, “Mamih aka hmu te unim? mamih aka ming te unim?,” a ti uh.
Wo vnto them that seeke deepe to hide their counsell from the Lord: for their workes are in darkenes, and they say, Who seeth vs? and who knoweth vs?
16 Nangmih khuplat rhoek aw, ambop te amlai bangla a poek vetih bitat aka saii taengah, “Kai n'saii boeh,” ti saeh a? Benbonah la amah aka saii te yakming pawh,” ti saeh a?
Your turning of deuises shall it not be esteemed as the potters clay? for shall the worke say of him that made it, Hee made me not? or the thing formed, say of him that facioned it, He had none vnderstanding?
17 A yolkai bet pueng pawt nim? Lebanon te cangphil cangngol neh ha mael vetih a cangthai te duup bangla a ngai ni.
Is it not yet but a litle while, and Lebanon shall be turned into Carmel? and Carmel shall be counted as a forest?
18 Tekah khohnin ah tah cabu dongkah olka te hnapang rhoek loh a yaak uh vetih khohmuep neh hmaisuep lamkah mikdael mik long khaw a hmuh uh ni.
And in that day shall the deafe heare the wordes of the booke, and the eyes of the blinde shall see out of obscuritie, and out of darkenesse.
19 Kodo rhoek tah BOEIPA dongah kohoenah neh thap uh vetih khodaeng hlang rhoek khaw Israel kah hlangcim dongah omngaih uh ni.
The meeke in the Lord shall receiue ioye againe, and the poore men shall reioyce in the holy one of Israel.
20 Hlanghaeng te a khawk sak vetih hmuiyoi khaw a khah ni. Boethae neh aka hak rhoek khaw boeih a saii uh pueng ni.
For the cruel man shall cease, and the scornefull shalbe consumed: and all that hasted to iniquitie, shalbe cut off:
21 Hlang he olka dongah lai a hmuh. Vongka ah a tluung neh dong a naat tih aka dueng te hinghong neh a vuei a nanuh.
Which made a man to sinne in ye worde, and tooke him in a snare: which reproued them in the gate, and made the iust to fall without cause.
22 Te dongah ni Abraham aka lat BOEIPA loh Jakob imkhui te, “Jakob te yahbai voel pawt vetih a maelhmai khaw hmaithikak mahpawh.
Therefore thus sayth the Lord vnto the house of Iaakob, euen hee that redeemed Abraham, Iaakob shall not now be confounded, neither now shall his face be pale.
23 Ka kut dongkah bibi te a ca rhoek loh a hmuh vaengah amah khui ah ka ming a ciim uh ni. Te vaengah Jakob kah a Hlangcim te a ciim uh vetih Israel Pathen taengah a sarhing uh ni.
But when he seeth his children, the worke of mine hands, in the mids of him, they shall sanctifie my Name, and sanctifie the holy one of Iaakob, and shall feare the God of Israel.
24 Te vaengah mueihla khohmang rhoek kah yakmingnah te a ming uh vetih cailak rhoek kah rhingtuknah a cang bitni,” a ti he.
Then they that erred in spirit, shall haue vnderstanding, and they that murmured, shall learne doctrine.
