Habakkuk 2
1 Kagalvenna muna chun kaldoh ingting chuleh ka pansatna muna chun ding ing’e. Chu che muna kona chu Pakaiyin kajaha ipi aseiding ve’ing ting chuleh keima kiphinna iti eidonbut nem ti ngah-inge.
I will stand at my guard post and station myself on the watchtower, and I will watch carefully to see what he will say to me and how I should turn from my complaint.
2 Chutah in Pakaiyin kajah a, “Ka donbutna hi songpheng ho chunga jihdoh in, hiti henlang hileh, alhaile pa chun midang ho koma thu phatea agalhut thei ding ahi.
Yahweh answered me and said, “Record this vision, and write plainly on the tablets so that the one reading them might run.
3 Hiche ahung lhung ding kimu hi khonung’a ding ahi. Hiche hin achaina ding ahilchenin, chule hiche hin gu ilhungtei ding ahi. Ahung vaigeija ahijong leh, ngah hat in, ajeh chu kho ngaisot lou ding, hung lhung tei ding ahi.
For the vision is yet for a future time and will finally speak and not fail. Though it delays, wait for it. For it will surely come and will not tarry.
4 Mi kilesah chu vetem in! Amaho tah akisong uvin, chuleh ahinkho mandan’u chu akon chetchut nin ahi. Hinlah midih chu Pathena dinga tahsan aum nauva hing ding ahiuve.
Look! The one whose desires are not right within him is puffed up. But the righteous will live by his faith.
5 Nei le nga hao mana lungngahna thei ahidehpoi, chuleh mihoitho hon kicholdona anei hih uve. Amahon lhan tobang'in akamu chu ahonglenun, chuleh thina kisei tobang'in aphatai atipouve. Akiloset manuvin amahon namtina mi akhom khomuvin, chuleh mitampi chu aval lhum tauve. (Sheol h7585)
For wine is a betrayer of the arrogant young man so that he will not abide, but enlarges his desire like the grave and, like death, is never satisfied. He gathers to himself every nation and gathers up for himself all of the peoples. (Sheol h7585)
6 Hinla asoh chan loi jengu hin amaho ajumso ding’u ahi. Amaho chun dai thanopna anei uva, Migucha nangho itobang lunghemna in nahinphah diu hitam? Tua hi nachan ding dol’u na kimu ding’u ahi! Alamlouva na hung hao dohu ahin, hinlah itih chanpi hi hitia na masot nahlai dingu ham?
Will not all these create a saying to ridicule him and a taunting song about him, saying, 'Woe to the one increasing what is not his! For how long will you increase the weight of the pledges you have taken?'
7 Phulou helouva na leibatna houvin nachunguva thutanna nanei khum ding’u ahi. Na chunguva hungkiheijuva kicha le tija'a nadinpet’uva nanei jouseu nalahpeh dingu ahi.
Will the ones biting at you not rise up suddenly, and the ones terrifying you awaken? You will become a victim for them.
8 Ajeh chu nanghon namtin vaipi nei jouse nachom jeng’u ahin, tua hi ason achilhah ho jouseu chun nangho nei achom dingu ahi. Nanghon thinglhang gam pumpia tolthana naboluvin chuleh khopi ho chu alamlouva gimbolna in na lodimsah tauve.
Because you have plundered many peoples, all the remnant of the peoples will plunder you. For you have shed human blood and acted with violence against the land, the cities, and all who live in them.
9 Alamlouva phatchomna naholnauva konna in lentah tah nasahu hin itobang lunggim nan nahin lhunkhum ding’u hitam! Nagou haonauvin huhbit nachoh pehthei dingin na tahsan’un, hahsatna in aphah joulouna ding muna na insung mi busatsah a nahiuve.
'Woe to the one who carves out evil gains for his house, so he can set his nest on high to keep himself safe from the hand of evil.'
10 Hinlah tolthana nabol jeh a hi, namin na jachat sah a chuleh nahinkhou nachan lo-u ahitai.
You have devised shame for your house by cutting off many people, and have sinned against yourself.
11 Banga song hohin nangho douna a kholhang ahinsap doh ding, chule inchunga inkam kilhunna inching noilama kidap hon jong noplouna ahin phondoh ding ahi.
For the stones will cry out from the wall, and the rafters of timber will answer them,
12 Tolthana le a lamlouva sumtong mu’a konna khopi sadoh ho itobang lunghem nan na hinphah diu hitam!
'Woe to the one who builds a city with blood, and who establishes a town in iniquity.'
13 Van Sepai ho Pakai chun namtin vaipi ahaonau hi vutvai kisopeh ding ahi tia ana thutepsa hilou ham? Na tampi atohdohu jong aboncha pannabei ahi.
Is it not from Yahweh of hosts that peoples labor for fire and all the other nations weary themselves for nothing?
14 Tihon twikhanglen in achup bangin, leiset hi Pakai loupina hetna in alodim ding ahi.
Yet the land will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of Yahweh as the waters cover the sea.
15 Naheng nakom kham ngolsah a nangma itobang lungkhamnan nahinphah ding hitam! Nakhon chu achunguva na ngamin, amaho chu adasa sauvin a jachatpiu sagohkeu ahinau chu deitah a navet theina dingin nabollin ahi.
'Woe to the one who forces his neighbors to drink— you express your anger over and you make them drunk in order to look at their nakedness.'
16 Hinla kintaha na chunga minset sahna hung lhung ding ahi. Hungin, donin chuleh muthei din kilangdohin. Pakai thutanna khon’a kon chun hung donin, chule na loupinau jouse chu jachatna hin sodoh hen.
You will be filled with shame instead of glory. Now it is your turn! Drink, and you will expose your uncircumcised foreskin! The cup in Yahweh's right hand is coming around to you, and disgrace will cover your glory.
17 Nanghon Lebanon gammang ho chu na satchaijui. Tua hi nangho kisatlha ding nahiuve. Nanghon gamsa ho chu na sumang hel’ui, hijeha hi amaho kicha a na um’u ahitai. Agamsung pumpia toltha naboluvin, chule khopi ho jong chu nosopa kibolna nadip dimu ahitai.
The violence done to Lebanon will overwhelm you and the destruction of animals will terrify you. For you have shed human blood and you have acted with violence against the land, the cities, and all who live in them.
18 Mihem khutnin asem milim chu ipi phatchomna uma ahilouleh nalhemlhauva pang milim kilhajol chu phamonga hinam? Nakhut tahun asem thil tahsan chu ipi phatchomna ham, pathen kihoulimpi thei hilou chu!
What does the carved figure profit you? For the one who has carved it, or who casts a figure from molten metal, is a teacher of lies; for he trusts his own handiwork when he makes these mute gods.
19 Thinga kona kisem milimho jaha, “Khangin lang chule nei huhdoh un” tiho chunga itobang lunghemna in nanga’u hitam! Thusei theilou song milim kisem ho jah a, “Thoudoh un chuleh neihilun” natiuve. Milim khat nin ipi bol ding nahil theijum? Sana le dangka a kisem himaithei junte, hinla amahon asunguva hinna anei pouve.
'Woe to the one saying to the wood, Wake up! Or to the silent stone, Arise!' Do these things teach? See, it is overlaid with gold and silver, but there is no breath at all within it.
20 Hinlah Pakai hi Ahou In Thenga aum’e. Leiset pumpi a angsunga thipchet hen”.
But Yahweh is in his holy temple! Be silent before him, all the land.”
