< Isaiah 4 >
1 Hiche nikho chuleh pasal lhomcha kidalhading, numei sagiin pasal khat atuhchah-uva, “Keiho khat cheh hi neikichenpi jengun. Keiho le keiho kivah-ungting, sil le chen jong kingaito nauvinge. Naminin najinu din neikichenpi jengun ajeh chu nungah vaokulla jumleja kathohlouna diuvin,” ati diu ahi.
When that happens, [there will be very few unmarried men still alive]. [As a result], seven [unmarried] women will grab one man, and say, “Allow us [all] to marry you [IDM]! We will provide our own food and clothing. All that we want is to no longer be disgraced [because of not being married].”
2 Hinlah khonungtengle Pakaiya kon’a hung jamdoh abah ho chu hoitahtah le loupitah chule agamga kithangatpitah hung hintin, Israel’a dinga kiledohna hung hiding ahi.
[But] some day, Israel [MTY] will be [very] beautiful and great/glorious. The people of Israel who will still be there will be very proud of the wonderful fruit that grows in their land.
3 Zion’a umden jouse chu mithengte kitidiu ahiin, amaho chu Jerusalem setnaa kon’a hung sohcha ahingdohho chu ahiuve.
All the people who will remain in Jerusalem, who were not killed when Jerusalem was destroyed, whose names are listed among those who live there, will be [called] holy.
4 Pakaiyin Zion khopi hoitaha kon’a bohsenen jouse asuhthenga chuleh Jerusalem’a thisan kisoho chu athaneina jal'a nampi thu atan’a asuhtheng ding,
[That will happen when] Yahweh washes away the guilt of the women of Jerusalem, and when he stops the violence [MET] [on the streets of Jerusalem] by punishing [the people of Jerusalem]. When he does that, it will be like a fire to burn up all the impure things.
5 Chuteng Zion molsanga mipi akikhom jouse dinga Pakaiyin sun teng meilhanga alesah-a jan teng mei adetpeh ding, Pathen loupina meipi chun alea aselding ahi.
Then Yahweh will send a cloud of smoke every day and a flaming fire every night to cover Jerusalem and [all] those who gather there; it will be [like] a glorious canopy over the city
6 Pathen loupina khopi chu nisa alepeha huipi le gopi laha jong adaldohpeh ding ahi.
that will shelter the people from the sun during the daytime and protect them when there are windstorms and rain.
