1 Hiche hi Amoz chapa Isaiah-in Judah le Jerusalem chungchanga mu anei chu ahi.
This is what Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 Ninunung lam tengleh Pakai molsang chu molsang jouse sanga achungnungpen’a hung kitungdoh ding ahi’n, hicheteng chuleh namtin vaipi jouse hiche molsang chunga chu hungkhom diu ahi.
It shall happen in the latter days, that the mountain of the LORD’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be raised above the hills; and all nations shall flow to it.
3 Namtin vaipi hungkhom diu chule hitia hi aseidiu ahi: “Hungun gakaltou-u hite Pakai molsang, Jacob Pathen in'ah; chuteng Ama’n Ama lampi dih chu eihil diu, Ama lampi dih-a chu lam ijotthei diu ahi. Ajeh chu Zion’a kon’a Pakai danthu hung potdoh ding Jerusalema kon’a Pakai thusei hung potdoh ding ahi.
Many peoples shall go and say, “Come, let’s go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For the law shall go out of Zion, and the LORD’s word from Jerusalem.
4 Pakai chun namtin vaipi kah-a thudih-a thu ahin tanding chule chitin namtin dinga thutanlhahna ahin nei ding, mihon achamjem’u tuchaa akikhen diu, atengchau jong kangkuiya akikhen diu, chutengle nam khatnin nam khat dounaa hem le thal alaplou heldiu ahitai. Chule galbol ding dan kihilna umtalou ding ahi.
He will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples. They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 Hunguvin Jacob son le pahte, Pakai vah noiya lamjotnute.
House of Jacob, come, and let’s walk in the light of the LORD.
6 Ajeh chu Pakaiyin amite Jacob son le pahho hi ananungsunsa ahitai. Ajehchu niso lama konin Philistine mite bangin mitphel doithemin adimuvin, gamchommiho toh akhut-u abengkhomun ahi.
For you have forsaken your people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled from the east, with those who practice divination like the Philistines, and they clasp hands with the children of foreigners.
7 Israel chu Sana dangka’n adimsetne. Agouthilhou jong beitih aumtapoi. Galmanchah bulhingsetnin akikoiyun, sakol kangtalai jong bulhingsetnin aneitauve.
Their land is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures. Their land also is full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.
8 Agamsunguvah milimdoi adimsetnin akhut-uva akisemthu ahouvun ahi.
Their land also is full of idols. They worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.
9 Hijeh a chu amaho hi kineosah le suhnema umdiu ahi. Pakaiyin bailamtaha achonsetnau amoh ngaidam jeng ding ahipoi.
Man is brought low, and mankind is humbled; therefore do not forgive them.
10 Songko sunglamah kitholluttan. Pakai agimneina le aloupina kidanga kon chun kiseldoh-in.
Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty.
11 Nakiloupisahna-a kon suhnema naum’a, Pakai bou chu choisanga aum ding nikho chu hung lhung ding ahi.
The lofty looks of man will be brought low, the arrogance of men will be bowed down, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.
12 Chuniteng chuleh Hatchungnung Pakaiyin mikithupisahho chu gotna apeh ding, vutvai khuhella avohlhuh ding ahi.
For there will be a day of the LORD of Armies for all that is proud and arrogant, and for all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low—
13 Lebanon’a cedar thingsangho aphuhlhuh ding, chule Bashan gangpi thingho jong aphuhlhuh ding ahi.
for all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, for all the oaks of Bashan,
14 Molsang jouse jong suhchama umding,
for all the high mountains, for all the hills that are lifted up,
15 Insong le kulbang jouse jong loichima umding ahi.
for every lofty tower, for every fortified wall,
16 Chule Ama’n kong-innei thupitahho jong asuhmang ding,
for all the ships of Tarshish, and for all pleasant imagery.
17 Mihem kiloupisahna kisunem ding, chule mihem kichapousahna jong suhnema umding, hiche thupi tan nikho teng chuleh Pakai jengseh bou choisanga um ding ahi.
The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the arrogance of men shall be brought low; and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.

The idols shall utterly pass away.
19 Ama leiset hotling dinga ahung kipatdoh tengleh mihemte songko sung dunga lut diu, leiko sunga jong lut diu; Pakai gimneina le loupina kidanga kon’a kiselmang diu ahi.
Men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
20 Hiche thutan nikho teng chuleh asanau le sum-enga kisem ahou diuva apathenhou chu adalhah diu, juchate le bahho masanga aselhah-uva adalhahpeh-uva,
In that day, men shall cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold, which have been made for themselves to worship, to the moles and to the bats,
21 Songpi kosung dunga kithollut diu, chule songpi kikah dunga jong lutnuva, Pakai lal loupina le agimneina-a kon’a kiselmang diu ahi leiset hotling dinga Pakai ahung kipatdoh teng tah chuleh.
to go into the caverns of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
22 Mihemah kingai hih helin. Haina-hu kila maimai tobanga tanloi jeng thei ahibou-uve. Ichanpia phachom jou diu ham?
Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he?
