Isaiah 10
1 Ohe itobang lunghemnan hiche thudihlouva thutanho le dan dihlouva vaihom ho chu alamto tadem!
Woe to them that make unrighteous decrees, That write oppressive decisions,
2 Amahon migentheiho chungah kithutandihna alhunsah pouvin, kamite lah-a alhasamhon angaichat achandiu dol chanvou jong aphalpeh pouve. Meithaiho agem’un, naochagaho lhahsamna chungah phatchomna akiholuve.
To turn away the needy from judgment, And rob the poor of my people of their right; That the widows may become their prey, And that they may plunder the orphans.
3 Gamlatah-a kon hahsatna kahin lhunsah-a gotna kahin chansah tengule ipi nabol diu ham? Koi kom nangatnuva panpina nathum diu hitam?
What will ye do in the day of visitation, And in the desolation which cometh from afar? To whom will ye flee for help, And where will ye leave your glory?
4 Galmun’a nathilouvujongle soh-a dinga mi’n nakaimang diu ahitai. Hiche geiya jong Pakai lungdam dehlou ding, talen matsahbe dia khut alap jing nahlai ding ahi.
Forsaken by me, they shall sink down among the prisoners, And fall among the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, But his hand is stretched out still.
5 “Ohe! Itobang vangsetnan ahinlamto tadem—Keiman kalunghanna mite jepna tenggol banga kamanji Assyria chu.
Woe to the Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, The staff in whose hands is the instrument of my indignation!
6 Keiman Assyria hi eilunghansah mite kadelkhumsah-in, anei agou jouseu kachomgamsahin, tolbol laha amite kachilthangsah-e.
Against an impious nation I will send him, And against a people under my wrath I will give him a charge To gather the spoil, and seize the prey, And to trample them under foot like the mire of the streets.
7 Ahinlah Assyria Lengpan ama chu kamanchah, kakhetbuh ahilam akihetpon; alungin angaito phapoi. Ama lunglam chu bailamtaha nam khat a pat nam khat suhmang jeng ding ti bou chu ahi.
But he doth not so purpose, And his heart doth not so intend; But to destroy is in his heart, And to cut off a multitude of nations.
8 Ama’n seiyinte: ‘Kagal lamkai jouse jong hi lenga hungpang loi diu ahi.
For he saith, “Are not my princes altogether kings?
9 Calno kasumangui, Carchemish kabol bangun. Hamath jong Arpad bangin kamasanguva abohkhup tauve. Chuleh Samaria jong Damascus bangin kasumang tauve.
Is not Calno as Carchemish? Is not Hamath as Arpad? Is not Samaria as Damascus?
10 Henge, lenggam tamtah, apathen’u Jerusalem le Samariatea sanga loupijoho jeng jong abonuvin kajousoh tauve.
As my hand hath seized the kingdoms of the idols, Whose graven images were more numerous than those of Jerusalem and Samaria,
11 Chuti ahijeh-a chu Jerusalem le apathen’u chu kasuhmang diu ahitai, Samaria le apathen kasuhmangtha banguva,” tiin.
Behold! as I have done to Samaria and her idols, So will I do to Jerusalem and her images.”
12 Pakaiyin atohgon Zion molsang le Jerusalem’a asuhbulhitna dinga Assyria lengpa amanchah banga, Ama’n Assyria lengpa chung ngeiya jong gotna alhunsah ding ahi—ijeh-inem itileh ama chu akiletsah-in ahamhoitho ta’n ahi.
But when the Lord hath accomplished his whole work upon Mount Zion and Jerusalem, Then will he punish the fruit of the proud heart of the king of Assyria, And the arrogance of his lofty eyes.
13 Ama chun, “Keima banthahat vanga bou hichan hi kaboldoh ahitai. Keima chihna le themna dungjuiya thilgon kabol ahi. Chitin namtin galkul kaphutvangin anei-agouvu kachomngim tai. Alengteu jong bongchal kikailhu bangin kasulhugamtai.
For he hath said: “By the strength of my hand I have done it, And by my wisdom; for I am wise; I have removed the bounds of nations, I have plundered their treasures; As a hero have I brought down them that sat upon thrones.
14 Loubolpa’n ahtui alokhom bangin agoubom’u le alenggam jouseu kalohkhom sohhel tai. Koiman keima douna-a alha ajap ngam tahlou ding chuleh keima douna kamcheng khat jeng jong aphondoh ngamlou ding ahitai,” tiin aseiye.
The riches of the nations hath my hand seized, as a nest; As one gathereth eggs that have been left, So have I gathered the whole world. And there was none that moved the wing, Or that opened the beak, or that chirped.”
15 Ahileh, heicha’n athingtanpa sanga thupijoa kiseithei mong ding hinam? Thing-at chu athing-atpa sanga thupijoam? Thing tenggolin achanga lam ajotthei ding hinam?
Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth with it? Or shall the saw magnify itself against him that moveth it? As if the rod should wield him that lifteth it! As if the staff should lift up him that is not wood!
16 Hijeh-a chu, Pakai, Van galsatte Pakai chun Assyriate galsat hamhoithoho laha chu hise alhunsah ding, akiloupisahnau chu meikongin ahallhum ding ahi.
Wherefore the Lord, the Lord of hosts, shall send upon his fat ones leanness, And under his glory shall he kindle a burning, like the burning of a fire.
17 Pakai, Israelte salvah chu meikongin pangintin, Athengpa chu ameikou hiding ahi. Ama’n ling le khao jouse le melmate chu jan khat kah-a meikonga ahallhum ding ahi.
The light of Israel shall be a fire, And his Holy One a flame, Which shall burn and devour his thorns and briers in one day.
18 Pakaiyin Assyria loupina chu theiga phatna gam'a gammang meikah banga meiya aleochaisoh ding; hichu nat-hise la’n jeh'a hiveiho amahthahgam banga manthaina umding ahi.
The glory of his forest and of his fruitful field From the spirit even to the flesh shall he consume; It shall be with them as when a sick man fainteth.
19 Hiche gammang thupitah sunga thingphung lhomcha sohcha ding—alhom dan chu chapang jengin jong ajat asimthei khambep hiding ahi.
The remaining trees of the forest shall be few, So that a child may write them down.
20 Chuniteng chuleh Israel gam'a akidalha ahingdoh chengse chun Van galsatte Pakai, Israelte Athengpa chu kitahtah-a atahsan diu ahitai.
In that day shall the remnant of Israel, and they that have escaped of the house of Jacob, no more lean upon him that smote them; They shall lean upon Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
21 Hiche akidalha ahingdohho, Jacob chilhahte chu Pathen Hatchungnung hengah kiletauvinte.
The remnant shall return, the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty Potentate;
22 Israelte chu twipi panga neldi jat phajongleu, alahuva ahingdohho bou chu Pakai koma kile ding ahiuve. Pakai chun amite chu asuhmang dinga thulhuhna dihtaha abol ahitai.
For though thy people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea, Only a remnant of them shall return. The devastation is decreed; It shall overflow with righteousness.
23 Henge, Pakai, Van gatsatte Pakai chun agamsung pumpi chu suhmang dinga anagotsa ahitai.
For devastation and punishment doth the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, execute in the midst of the whole land,
24 Hijehchun Pakai, Van galsatte Pakai chun hitin aseiye: “O Zion’a um kamite, Masanglaiya Egypt gam'a suhgentheiya naum lai banguva Assyriaten mollhon le hem’a nahin sat tengule kichahihun.
Yet thus saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts: Fear not, O my people, that dwellest in Zion, because of the Assyrian! With his rod indeed shall he smite thee, And lift up his staff against thee in the manner of Egypt;
25 Chomkhat joule nachunguva kalunghanna hung beiyintin, chuteng kalunghanna chu namelmateu suhchimitna dingin kileheitante.
But yet a very little while, and my indignation shall have past, And my anger shall destroy them.
26 Keiman Oreb songpi chunga Midian mite kakhaoguiya kajep’a Gideon galjona kapeh-a, chuleh kamoljol akidopsanga Egypt galsatte twipin alhohmanggam banga Assyriate jong kasuhmanggam ding ahi.
Jehovah of hosts shall raise up against him a scourge, As he smote Midian at the rock of Horeb, And as he lifted up the rod against the sea; Yea, he shall lift it up, as in Egypt.
27 Chuniteng chuleh Pakaiyin amite sohchanna phat akichaisah ding, alengkou-uva kon’a soh namkol asutlhahpeh ding ahi.
In that day shall his burden be removed from thy shoulder, And his yoke from thy neck; Yea, thy yoke shall be broken, as that of a fat steer.
28 Veuvin, tuhin Assyriate Aiath ah aumtauve. Migron ajotpauvin amanchah thilkeohou Micmash munah akoikhomuve.
He is come to Aiath; he passeth through Migron; In Michmash he leaveth his baggage;
29 Agallangkhat ahung galkaiyun, Geba munah ajan-geh tauve. Ramah khopi kichatnan akithingtai. Saul khopi, Gibeah mite jong ajam gamtauve.
They pass the strait; At Geba they make their night-quarters; Ramah trembleth; Gibeah of Saul fleeth.
30 Tijatnan kholhang akisam’e: Vo Gallim mite! Laishah mite ngaiyun! Khoto naum ngeiyui, O Anathoth mite!
Cry aloud, O daughter of Gallim! Hear, O Laish! Alas, poor Anathoth!
31 Madmenah mite jong ajamcheh gamtauve. Gebim khomiten kiselna ding mun aholtauve.
Madmenah hasteth away; The inhabitants of Gebim take to flight.
32 Tu’n jong Nob khomunah nilhumin melmate akicholdovin, Jerusalem lhanga Zion Molsang hoitah chu agaldotnun akhuttum ajelkhumui.
Yet one day shall he rest at Nob, Then shall he shake his hand against the mount of the daughter of Zion, The hill of Jerusalem.
33 Hinla veuvin! Pakai, Van galsatte Pakaiyin Assyriate thingphung lentahpa chu thahattaha aphuhlhuh ding ahi! Akiloupisahna chu asatlhuh ding ahi. Hiche thingphung sangtahpa chu kiloilhu ding ahi.
But behold! the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, shall lop the branches with fearful force, And the high of stature shall be cut down, And the lofty shall be brought low.
34 Gammang thingphungho banga heicha-a kitulhugam diu ahi. Lebanon chu Hatchungnungpa masanga lhuding ahi.
He shall hew the thickets of the forest with iron, And Lebanon shall fall by a mighty hand.
