Thupualakna 8
1 Ceptena a salina a hon ciang in, vantung sia nai lang sung bang dai dide hi.
When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
2 Pathian mai a ding vantungmi sali te; lemle sali a piak ka mu hi.
I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
3 Vantungmi a dang khat hongpai a biaktau hui ah ding hi, ngim namtui halna kham beal nei a; ngim namtui zong tampi pia hi, tua ngim namtui te sia mithiangtho theampo te i thungetna taw kumpi tokhum mai, kham biaktau tung ah piak tu a hihi.
Another angel came and stood over the altar, having a golden censer. Much incense was given to him, that he should add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne.
4 Ngim namtui halna i meikhu le mithiangtho te thungetna sia, vantungmi i khut pan in Pathian mai ah kato hi.
The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel’s hand.
5 Vantungmi in a beal la a, biaktau a mei taw a dimsak zawkciang in, leitung ah buaksuk hi: taciang in aw tatuam hong nging a, van zong to hi, khua zong leng vazial a, zin zong ling hi.
The angel took the censer, and he filled it with the fire of the altar, then threw it on the earth. Thunders, sounds, lightnings, and an earthquake followed.
6 Taciang lemle sali a nei vantungmi sali te lemle tum tu in ki thoai uh hi.
The seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
7 Vantungmi a khatna in a tum zawkciang in, thisan taw a ki hel ngial le mei in zui a, tua te sia leitung ah sung suk hi: taciangin thingkung khenthum sua khen khat te le lopa hing khenthum sua khenkhat kang siat hi.
The first sounded, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth. One third of the earth was burned up, and one third of the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up.
8 Vantungmi a nina in a tum zawkciang in, meikuang vahau mual lian mama bang khat tuipi sung ah khiasuk a: tui khenthum sua khenkhat sia thisan suak hi;
The second angel sounded, and something like a great burning mountain was thrown into the sea. One third of the sea became blood,
9 Taciang tuipi sung a om nuntakna nei piansak nate khenthum sua khen khat thi siat a; tembaw khenthum sua khen khat te zong susia siat hi.
and one third of the living creatures which were in the sea died. One third of the ships were destroyed.
10 Vantungmi a thumna in a tum zawkciang in, meivak a kuang sa bang aksi lian mama sia vantung pan in taksuk a, nguntui khenthum sua khenkhat le ciktui te tung ah tak hi;
The third angel sounded, and a great star fell from the sky, burning like a torch, and it fell on one third of the rivers, and on the springs of water.
11 Tua aksi min sia ngamsai kung kici hi: tui khenthum sua khenkhat ngamsai kung suaksiat a; mi tampi te sia tua tui hang in thi uh hi, banghangziam cile tua tui sia kha hi.
The name of the star is “Wormwood.” One third of the waters became wormwood. Many people died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
12 Vantungmi a li na in a tum zawkciang in, ni, tha le aksik khenthum sua khenkhat vat a; khenthum sua khenkhat thim ahikom, sun sia khenthum sua khenkhat khuavak ngawl a, zan zong tabangma a hihi.
The fourth angel sounded, and one third of the sun was struck, and one third of the moon, and one third of the stars, so that one third of them would be darkened; and the day wouldn’t shine for one third of it, and the night in the same way.
13 Taciang in ka et le, van laizang ah vantungmi khat leang kawm in, leitung mihing te tung ah, vantungmi thum te in a tum lai tu lemle aw hang in leitung mite a mailambing hi, a mailambing hi, a mailambing hi, ci in aw ngingtak in a au ka za hi!
I saw, and I heard an eagle, flying in mid heaven, saying with a loud voice, “Woe! Woe! Woe to those who dwell on the earth, because of the other blasts of the trumpets of the three angels, who are yet to sound!”
