Isaiah 33
1 Ipi lunghemnan nangao ham nangho Assyria te, mi sumang ho, ahinla nangho leh nangho a itih in nakisumang kha hih helu vin ahi. Midang najou lhep jiuvin, ahinla nangho lheplha in na um kha hih uve. Mi suhmang nangah teng uleh nangho nakisumang diu ahi. Mi lheplhah nangah tengu leh nangho nakilhem lhadiu na hiuve.
Woe to thee that layest waste, and thou [wast] not laid waste; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt cease to lay waste, thou shalt be wasted; [and] when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.
2 Ahin Pakai, nei hepiu vin, ajehchu nangma ngah a um kahiuve. Nisim in kaban thahat nun hungpangin lang, hahsatna'a kaum teng uleh eihuhdoh diuvin hung pangin.
O LORD, be gracious to us; we have waited for thee: be thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.
3 Na awgin ajah jeh un melmate a jam uve. Nahung dindoh teng leh chitin namtin ajam jitao ve!
At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered.
4 Lungmul, peng palep leh khaokho hon louho leh lengpi gui ho akeova alha bang uva Assyria galsat sepai hojong lhu uva, ima hilou diu ahitai!
And your spoil shall be gathered [like] the gathering of the caterpillar: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.
5 Pakai chu alet a len hihen. Van mun'a cheng hijong leh aman Jerusalem chu thudih leh chonphatna in na asemdoh ding ahi.
The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.
6 Hiche nikho teng leh ama chu na kingap detchet na abul hintin, huhhing'a ninglhing setna kikoi khol, hetna leh chihna napeh ding ahi. Pakai gin chu nadinga gou hiding ahi.
And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, [and] strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD [is] his treasure.
7 Ahin tun vang nagal hang hou lhang phongin akap uvin ahi. Chamna semho nommo tah in lunglha in akap uve.
Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the embassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.
8 Na lampiu ho jong akamdel tai; Koi macha alamlha tapouve. Assyrian ten chamna dinga kinopto nachu asukeh taovin, ahetoh a pangho masanga kitepna ananei uchu anahsah tapou vin ahi. Koima cha gin le ja anei pouve.
The highways lie waste, the way-faring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.
9 Israel gam chu puldou nan achup lhatai. Lebanon jong jachat nin ananglha tai. Sharon phaicham chu tun gamthip gam ahitai. Bashan leh Carmel chom in ana umtai.
The earth mourneth [and] languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed [and] hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off [their fruits].
10 Ahin Pakai in aseije: “Tun keima kadindoh ding ahi. Ka thahat naleh kahatna tua hi kavetsah ding ahi.
Now will I rise, saith the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.
11 Nangho Assyria miten hampa gop ahilouleh kolbu kung tailou ima nasodoh pouve. Nahai nau hu chu mei hung kisoh intin, nahin vallhum dingu ahi.
Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, [as] fire, shall devour you.
12 Ling hamboh a kisatlhah a, meiya akilelut bangin na mite jong kachai keidiu ahi.
And the people shall be [as] the burnings of lime: [as] thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.
13 Ipi kabol doh ham phaten ngaijun, nangho chitin namtin gam la tah'a umho! Chuleh naicha'a umhon kathahat hi hetpeh in nei neijun!”
Ye [that are] far off, hear what I have done; and ye [that are] near, acknowledge my might.
14 Jerusalem'a um michonse ho tija in akithing thing uve. Pathen houlou hochu tijatna nasatah in aman taove. “Hitobang mi vallhum jengthei meikong hi kon athoh jou mong ding ham?” tin akap uvin ahi. “Hitobang meikong nasatah akon'a koiham asohcha ding?”
The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?
15 Mi kitah leh mitheng ho, joule nal'a phatchomna ding nomlou ho, nehguh deilou jeh'a munchom gam latah'a umdoh ho tolthat dinga guhthim'a thilgon ho thusei ngaipeh lou'a da chah khet jeng ho, thilpha lou boldinga lhepna jouse mangcha guho akon'a amit u sing jeng ho-
He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil;
16 mun sang'a cheng ding hochu amaho hi ahiuve. Mol le lhang 'a um songpi hochu akulpiu va pangding ahi. Neh le chah hin kithah peh diu, chule tui jong ning lhing setna aneidiu ahi.
He shall dwell on high: his place of defense [shall be] the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters [shall be] sure.
17 Lengpa aloupina jouse toh namit tah uva namu diu, chuleh gamla tah'a sao gam leiset chu namit'a namu diu ahi.
Thy eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off.
18 Hiche tijat umtah nikho hi nahin nunggel doh diu, chuteng nahin doh diu chu, “Insangho sim toh'a pang Assyrian milun ho chu hoiya um uva hitam? I khopi u alhuh nunga thil le lo ki chomdoh ching tup'a pang lekhabu koitup hochu hoilai ja um uva hitam?”
Thy heart shall meditate terror. Where [is] the scribe? where [is] the receiver? where [is] he that counted the towers?
19 Migilou ho leh mikhanse hon hetkhah lou leh kidang tah paochom athohou hi navel mukit tah louding ahi.
Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, [that thou canst] not understand.
20 Zion chu golnop phatah bolna mun'a nahin lemu joh dingu ahi. Jerusalem chu chamna leh bitkeija umna khopi'a nahin mudingu ahi. Khoilupon in, akhao kiloi detchet leh akhom ho chah thet na kitung tobang ding ahi.
Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thy eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle [that] shall not be taken down; not one of its stakes shall ever be removed, neither shall any of its cords be broken.
21 Eiho dinga Pakai chu Hatchungnung Pen hung hiding ahi. Amachu vadung vailentah in bitkei'a akoi, galmi hon ahin palkai joulou u bangdi ahi. Galmi ho kong jong kitolna thei hilou ding ahi.
But there the glorious LORD [will be] to us a place of broad rivers [and] streams; in which shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass through it.
22 Ajehchu Pakai chu eithutan pao ahin, dan eipeuva leh i lengpao ahije. Aman eikhohsah untin, eihuhdoh diu ahi.
For the LORD [is] our judge, the LORD [is] our lawgiver, the LORD [is] our king; he will save us.
23 Galmite kongtol napon akilhamin, kongleh lang achi pin, manchah hojong pannabei ahitai. Anei agou houjong Pathen mite kihom diu ahitai. Elbai ho jengin jong achan vou u akilah diu ahi!
Thy tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey.
24 “Kadam pouvin chuleh panpi bei kahiu ve,” tia Israel miten asei tahlou diu ahi. Ajeh chu Pakai in achonset nao angaidam ding ahitai.
And the inhabitants shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein [shall be] forgiven [their] iniquity.
