Isaiah 7

1 Judah manghai Uzziah koca Jotham capa Ahaz tue a pha vaengah Aram manghai Rezin neh Israel manghai Remaliah capa Pekah loh Jerusalem te caemtloek ham a caeh thil rhoi. Tedae a vathoh thil te coeng thai pawh.

And in the dayes of Ahaz, the sonne of Iotham, the sonne of Vzziah king of Iudah, Rezin the King of Aram came vp, and Pekah the sonne of Remaliah King of Israel, to Ierusalem to fight against it, but he could not ouercome it.

2 Aram taengla Ephraim khoem uh a ti te David imkhui la a puen pah. Te dongah a thinko neh a pilnam thinko tah khohli loh duup thing a hlinghloek bangla a hlinghloek pah.

And it was tolde the house of Dauid, saying, Aram is ioyned with Ephraim: therefore his heart was moued, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest are moued by the winde.

3 Te vaengah BOEIPA loh Isaiah taengah, “Ahaz doe hamla namah cet laeh, na capa Shearjashub khaw hni suk lo long kah a so tuibuem tuilong bawt ah om lah ko,

Then sayde the Lord vnto Isaiah, Goe foorth nowe to meete Ahaz (thou and Sheariashub thy sonne) at the ende of the conduit of the vpper poole, in the path of the fullers fielde,

4 anih te, “Ngaithuen lamtah duem om. Rhih boeh, na thinko khaw phoena boel saeh. Rezin, Aram neh Remaliah koca kah thintoek thinling kongah hmaipok a ngawn la bok khuu coeng.

And say vnto him, Take heede, and be still: feare not, neither be faint hearted for the two tailes of these smoking firebrands, for the furious wrath of Rezin and of Aram, and of Remaliahs sonne:

5 Aram loh Ephraim neh Remaliah koca kah boethae neh nang ng'uen tih,

Because Aram hath taken wicked counsell against thee, and Ephraim, and Remaliahs sonne, saying,

6 Judah la cet uh sih lamtah poelyoe uh sih. Te te mamih ham tael uh thae sih lamtah a khui kah manghai ham te Tabeel koca te manghai sak uh sih,” a ti.

Let vs goe vp against Iudah, and let vs waken them vp, and make a breach therein for vs, and set a King in the mids thereof, euen the sonne of Tabeal.

7 Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh, “Te te thoo hae pawt vetih cak hae mahpawh.

Thus sayth the Lord God, It shall not stand, neither shall it be.

8 Aram kah a lu Damasku, Damasku kah a lu te Rezin. Pilnam khui lamloh Ephraim tah kum sawmrhuk kum nga khuiah a rhihyawp sak ni.

For the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin: and within fiue and threescore yeere, Ephraim shalbe destroyed from being a people.

9 Ephraim kah a lu Samaria, Samaria kah a lu Remaliah capa, na tangnah pawt atah koep na tangnah voel mahpawh tinah,” a ti.

And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliahs sonne. If ye beleeue not, surely ye shall not be established.

10 BOEIPA loh Ahaz a voek te koep a rhaep tih,

And the Lord spake againe vnto Ahaz, saying,

11 BOEIPA na Pathen taeng lamkah miknoek te saelkhui bangla dung tih a so la sang cakhaw namah ham bih lah,” a ti. (Sheol h7585)

Aske a signe for thee of the Lord thy God: aske it, either in the depth beneath or in the height aboue. (Sheol h7585)

12 Tedae Ahaz loh, “Ka bih mahpawh, BOEIPA te ka noemcai mai mahpawh,” a ti.

But Ahaz sayd, I wil not aske, neither will I tempt the Lord.

13 Te vaengah, “David imkhui loh hnatun laeh, hlang na ngae te na yakvawt tih a?, ka Pathen te khaw na ngae uh eh.

Then he sayd, Heare you nowe, O house of Dauid, Is it a small thing for you to grieue men, that ye will also grieue my God?

14 Te dongah Boeipa amah long ni nangmih taengah miknoek m'paek eh?, hula ke vawn vetih ca a sak ni. Te vaengah a ming te Immanu-El a sui ni.

Therefore the Lord himselfe will giue you a signe. Beholde, the virgine shall conceiue and beare a sonne, and she shall call his name Immanu-el.

15 Boethae te hnawt ham neh a then te tuek ham a ming duela suknaeng neh khoitui ni a caak eh.

Butter and hony shall he eate, till he haue knowledge to refuse the euill, and to chuse the good.

16 Tedae camoe loh a thae te hnawt ham neh a then te tuek ham a ming hlanah a manghai rhoi kongah a mueipuel vetih na khohmuen te a hnoo ni.

For afore the childe shall haue knowledge to eschew the euill, and to chuse the good, the land, that thou abhorrest, shalbe forsaken of both her Kings.

17 Ephraim te Judah taeng lamloh Assyria manghai taengla a nong hnin vaeng lamkah aka om noek pawt khaw, tekah khohnin ah tah BOEIPA loh namah taengah, na pilnam taengah, na pa imkhui ah a om sak ni.

The Lord shall bring vpon thee, and vpon thy people, and vpon thy fathers house (the dayes that haue not come from the day that Ephraim departed from Iudah) euen the King of Asshur.

18 Te khohnin a pha vaengah BOEIPA loh Egypt sokko hmoi kah pilyang ham khaw, Assyria khohmuen kah khoi ham te khaw kut a ving pah ni.

And in that day shall the Lord hisse for the flie that is at the vttermost part of the floods of Egypt, and for the bee which is in the lande of Asshur,

19 Amih te boeih ha pawk uh vetih soklong laengsang ah, thaelpang thaelrhaep ah, tangtii boeih neh tuiko tom ah duem uh ni.

And they shall come and shall light all in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rockes, and vpon all thorny places, and vpon all bushy places.

20 Te khohnin ah tah Boeipa loh tuiva rhalvangan lamkah kutloh paihat neh, Assyria manghai te a lu, a kho mul te a vok pa vetih hmuimul te khaw a khoengvoep pah ni.

In that day shall the Lord shaue with a rasor that is hired, euen by them beyond the Riuer, by the King of Asshur, the head and the heare of the feete, and it shall consume the beard.

21 Te khohnin a pha vaengah vaito saelhung neh boiva pumnit nen ni hlang a hing eh.

And in the same day shall a man nourish a yong kow, and two sheepe.

22 Suktui muep buem vetih suknaeng te a caak ni. Khohmuen lakli kah aka sueng boeih loh suknaeng neh khoitui a caak ni.

And for the abundance of milke, that they shall giue, hee shall eate butter: for butter and hony shall euery one eate, which is left within the land.

23 Te khohnin a pha vaengah tah hmuen takuem ah misur thawngkhat neh tangka thawngkhat aka ting khaw lota ham neh hling hamla khoeng a om pah ni.

And at the same day euery place, wherein shalbe a thousand vines, shalbe at a thousand pieces of siluer: so it shalbe for the briers and for the thornes.

24 Khohmuen tom ah lota neh hling loh a cun dongah thaltang neh lii nen ni a paan eh.

With arrowes and with bowe shall one come thither: because all the land shall be briers and thornes.

25 Tlang tom te tuktong neh a yoe uh coeng. Lota neh hling rhihnah dongah hnap na kun voel mahpawh. Vaito kah a taelhnah ham neh tu kah a cawtkoi ham ni a om eh?,” a ti.

But on all the mountaines, which shalbe digged with the mattocke, there shall not come thither the feare of briers and thornes: but they shalbe for the sending out of bullocks, and for the treading of sheepe.
