Isaiah 22
1 Jerusalem chung changa thuhil hitin ahunge-Gaova kimu phaicham: Ipi thu um hitam? Inchung sao langa chu ibola mijouse lhai lou vaham?
The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops?
2 Khopi sung jouse tijan aboi taove. Ipi kamu hitam kipana a anadim khopi a hi? Thilong ho muntinna akijam in, gala thijong ahipouvin, natna leh kella thi ahibou vui.
Thou that art full of stirs, a tumultuous city, a joyous city: thy slain [men are] not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle.
3 Na lamkai hou ajammang gam taove kithuh a pangsa louvin akipedoh jeng taove. Mipi jong a jammang gutnaova mat tup in aum taove.
All thy rulers are fled together, they are bound by the archers: all that are found in thee are bound together, [which] have fled from far.
4 Hijeh a chu kasei ahi, “Kapdin neidalha uvin; lhepbi ding neigo hih un. Kamite kisuhmang kavet toh kilhonin amaho din kap inge.”
Therefore said I, Look away from me; I will weep bitterly, labour not to comfort me, because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people.
5 Aw, iti kisuchipdeh gallel nikho hia tam! Lungboina leh tijatna nikho hia hitam, van janel Pakai in ahin lhunsah hi, gaova thilmuna mun phaicham ahi. Jerusalem bang jouse akisuchip tan, molsang jouse akonin mithiho kana husa a kithong jeng jung jengin ahi.
For [it is] a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity by the Lord GOD of hosts in the valley of vision, breaking down the walls, and of crying to the mountains.
6 Elamite ten thalpi a kipoh un, sakol kangtalai holeh a tolthem ho toh ahiuvin ahi. Kir miten galvon ompho ho a tuhdoh taovin ahi.
And Elam bare the quiver with chariots of men [and] horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield.
7 Sakol kangtalai jin na phaicham mun hoi jouse hin lon dimin tin, atolhon na kotpi ahin tum hong diu ahi.
And it shall come to pass, [that] thy choicest valleys shall be full of chariots, and the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate.
8 Judate kivenna chu sutlhah peh in a um tan, galvon kikoina a galmanchah ladinga nalhai ding ahi.
And he discovered the covering of Judah, and thou didst look in that day to the armour of the house of the forest.
9 Jerusalem bang kisuchim chu naga khol chilin, dilneo hoa twi nakholtup in ahi.
Ye have seen also the breaches of the city of David, that they are many: and ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
10 In ho na ga tetoh in, themkhat na phetlhan, bang ho alhou nadin songho nagol challin ahi.
And ye have numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses have ye broken down to fortify the wall.
11 Khopi sung bangho kikah a twikholna khat na sadoh in, dilneo lui a konin twi nakhom tup e. Ahinla, abolpa kom'a panpina nathum naisaipoi. Phat sot a patna hin gong jing Pa nageldoh khapoije.
Ye made also a ditch between the two walls for the water of the old pool: but ye have not looked unto the maker thereof, neither had respect unto him that fashioned it long ago.
12 Hiche phat chun Pakai, van janel Pakai chun na kouvin, puldou ding leh kapdin nasole. Na chonset naho jal'in lung lengvai tah in nalu kivomuijin atin, chuleh lung kisih na vetsahnan khaodip pon kivon din aseije.
And in that day did the Lord GOD of hosts call to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth:
13 Ahin alamchom beh in nalam in, na kichemin ahi; na gancha holeh na kelngoi nathat in ahi. Ju leh sa in golnop nabolin ahi. Hiti jong hin na seije, “Neu hitin don uhite, ajehchu jing leh ithi diu ahi! “
And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: let us eat and drink; for to morrow we shall die.
14 Van janel Pakai chun kei koma ahin seidoh tai: “Nathi nikho a hunglhun masang sen hiche chonset jeh ahi ngaidam nachan lou hel ding ahi. “Hiche hi Pakai, van janel Pakai thutan ahi.
And it was revealed in mine ears by the LORD of hosts, Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith the Lord GOD of hosts.
15 Hiche hi ahi Pakai, van janel Pakai in kahenga asei chu: “Shebna, leng inpi vaihom chu kimaitopin chuleh hiche thuhil hi pen:
Thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, [even] unto Shebna, which [is] over the house, [and say],
16 “Koihija naki gel a, chuleh hilai jahi ipi nabol a, nakivuina ding khuh hoitah nakisah a, songpi chung sanga hetjing nading na kitun ham?
What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewed thee out a sepulchre here, [as] he that heweth him out a sepulchre on high, [and] that graveth an habitation for himself in a rock?
17 Ajehchu Pakai in na lemang vahding ahitai, mihatpa. Aman nahung matchah ding ahi,
Behold, the LORD will carry thee away with a mighty captivity, and will surely cover thee.
18 Kanglum akisea akichon banga naki chon sah ding, chuleh napei a, gam lataha napei mang ding ahi. Hilai achu nahung thi den ding, naloupina kangtalai ho kisusen tin, man thei hilou ding ahitai. Na lamkaipu molphouna nahung hiding ahi!
He will surely violently turn and toss thee [like] a ball into a large country: there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory [shall be] the shame of thy lord’s house.
19 “ahi, natoh namun a kona katoldoh ding nahi,” tin Pakai jin aseije. “Nadin mun sangtah'a kona kakai lhah ding nahi.
And I will drive thee from thy station, and from thy state shall he pull thee down.
20 Hiteng chuleh kasohpa Hilkiah chapa Elaikim, nakhel dinga kakou ding ahi.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:
21 Amachu na lengvon kakivon sahding chuleh na minvo leh nathuneina kipeding ahitai. Jerusalem leh Judah tedinga mipa hung hiding ahi.
And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
22 David chenna in kanglong honna kapeh ding-leng thutan namun dia dinmun sangpen ahi. Aman kot ho ahon teng leh koiman akhathei louding, akha teng leh koiman ahon theilou ding ahi.
And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
23 A insung ahin choisang ding ahi. Ajeh chu keiman amachu dettah a kakoi ding, Thingkil banga kikhen lut bang ding ahi.
And I will fasten him [as] a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father’s house.
24 Mopohna lentah peuvin tin, a insungmi aneopen geija choisanga umding ahi.”
And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups, even to all the vessels of flagons.
25 Ahin, van janel Pakai in hitijong hin aseije: “Phat hung lhung ding ahi, thingkil detchet na kikhena angaitou chu, keiman kabo doh ding ahi. Hung doh intin, tol'a lhading ahi. Asuhdet ho puma hunglha mang diu ahi. Keima Pakai in kasei ahi!”
In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the nail that is fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that [was] upon it shall be cut off: for the LORD hath spoken [it].
