Thupualakna 7
1 Hi teng zawkciang in leitung king li ah vantungmi li a ding ka mu a, amate in leitung, tuipi le thigkung te tung ah, hui li te i a mut thei ngawl natu in lenci hi.
After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, and holding back the four winds of the earth so that no wind should blow over the earth or the sea or upon any tree.
2 Taciang nisua na sang pan in a nungta Pathian i ceptena a nei vantungmi a dang khat a kato ka mu hi: tua vantungmi in leitung le tuipi suksiat thei na a nei vantungmi li te tung ah a ngingtak in au a,
And I saw another angel coming from the east and carrying a seal belonging to the ever-living God. He called in a loud voice to the four angels whose work it was to injure the earth and the sea.
3 I Pathian i sila te i talki ah ceptena i khet mateng leitung, tuipi le thingkung te susia heak lai vun, ci hi.
"Injure neither land nor sea nor trees," he said, "until we have sealed the bondservants of our God upon their foreheads."
4 Israel tate nam theampo sung pan tul sang khat le then li le tul li ceptena khen uh hi, ci in a phaza a son ka za hi.
When the sealing was finished, I heard how many were sealed out of the tribes of the descendants of Israel. They were 144,000.
5 Judah nam sung pan in then khat le tul ni ceptena khen hi. Reuben nam sung pan in then khat le tul ni ceptena khen hi. Gad nam sung pan then khat le tul ni ceptena khen hi.

9 Hisia zawkciang ka et le, ngam tatuam, nam tatuam, minam tatuam, kam tatuam sung pan in, kuama i sim zawkngawl mihonpi sia, kumpi tokhum le Tuuno mai ah puanpak tual sil in, a khut uh ah nuktu toai in, a ding ka mu hi;
After this I looked, and a vast host appeared which it was impossible for anyone to count, gathered out of every nation and from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in long white robes, and carrying palm-branches in their hands.
10 Taciang amate in, ngupna sia kumpi tokhum tung a to pa i Pathian le Tuuno tung ah om hi, ci in ngingtak in au uh hi.
In loud voices they were exclaiming, "It is to our God who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb, that we owe our salvation!"
11 Taciang kumpi tokhum, upa te le nganhing li te i kimkot a ding vantungmi theampo, kumpi tokhum mai ah bok uh a, Pathian bia uh hi.
All the angels were standing in a circle round the throne and round the Elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces in front of the throne and worshipped God.
12 Amen; Thupa, minthanna, ciimna, pokna, upatna, vangletna le thahatna te a tawntung in i Pathian tung ah om tahen, Amen, ci uh hi. (aiōn g165)
"Even so!" they cried: "The blessing and the glory and the wisdom and the thanks and the honor and the power and the might are to be ascribed to our God, until the Ages of the Ages! Even so!" (aiōn g165)
13 Upa te sung pan khat in, puanpak tualpi a sil te akuate ziam? Koisung pan hongpai ziam? ci in hong dong hi.
Then, addressing me, one of the Elders said, "Who are these people clothed in the long white robes? And where have they come from?"
14 Taciang keima in, Topa awng, nangma in na he hi, ka ci hi. Taciang in ama in, Hi te sia haksatna lianpi sung pan a suakta te a hihi, taciang amate puantual te sawp a, Tuuno thisan sung ah a paksak te a hihi, hong ci hi.
"My lord, you know," I replied. "They are those," he said, "who have just passed through the great distress, and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 Tua ahikom amate sia Pathian i kumpi tokhum mai ah om uh a, sun le zan in Ama biakinn sung ah Ama na seam uhhi; taciang kumpi tokhum tung ah a topa sia amate sung ah om tu hi.
For this reason they stand before the very throne of God, and render Him service, day after day and night after night, in His sanctuary, and He who is sitting upon the throne will shelter them in His tent.
16 Amate sia ngilkial nawn ngawl tu uh a, dangtak kik nawn ngawl tu uh hi; nisa in zong kang ngawl tu a, bangpo a sa in zong kang nawn ngawl tu hi.
They will never again be hungry or thirsty, and never again will the sun or any scorching heat trouble them.
17 Banghangziam cile kumpi tokhum laizang a topa Tuuno in vak tu a, nuntakna ciktui omna mun ah paipui tu hi: taciang Pathian in a mit pan a luang thitui te nawlsak siat tu hi.
For the Lamb who is in front of the throne will be their Shepherd, and will guide them to watersprings of Life, and God will wipe every tear from their eyes."
