Isaiah 7
1 Jotham chapa, Uzziah tupa, Ahaz chu Judah Lengpa ahi laiyin, Syria Lengpa Rezin le Israel Lengpa Remaliah chapa Pekah chu Jerusalem bulu dingin anakondoh lhonin ahi. Hinla agondan bangun thil anaumtapoi.
And it comes to pass in the days of Ahaz, son of Jotham, son of Uzziah, king of Judah, [that] Rezin king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, have gone up to Jerusalem, to battle against it, and he is not able to fight against it.
2 Hiche thudol chu Judah leng inpiah: “Eiho dou dingin Syria toh Israel akikhutjop tauve!” tiin thu ahunglhungin ahi. Hichun Judah Lengpa le amite lungsung chu huipi hatlaha thingphung kihotling bangin akithing gamtai.
And it is declared to the house of David, saying, “Aram has been led toward Ephraim,” and his heart and the heart of his people is moved, like the moving of trees of a forest by the presence of wind.
3 Hichun Pakaiyin Isaiah hengah, “Nachapa Shear-jashub kipuiyin lang Leng Ahaz gakimupi ta’n. Ama chu vonsopna mun jotna lampi koma, twikul sahnungjoa longlut twilam mong lama chu anaum ding ahi.
And YHWH says to Isaiah, “Now go forth to meet Ahaz, you and your son Shear-Jashub, to the end of the conduit of the upper pool, to the highway of the fuller’s field,
4 Ama chu lungkhama umloudin seipeh-in. Hol kilhut-al lenglung bang jeng Syria Lengpa Rezin le Remaliah chapa Pekah chu akichatlouhel dingin seipeh-in.
and you have said to him: Take heed, and be quiet, do not fear, And do not let your heart be timid, Because of these two tails of smoking brands, For the fierceness of the anger of Rezin and Aram, And the son of Remaliah.
5 Henge, Syria Lengpa le Israel Lengpa chu nangma dou dingin ahungkon lhonin,
Because that Aram counseled evil against you, Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, saying,
6 ‘Judah gamsung bulu-utin amite lunglinglaovin koiyute. Chuteng Jerusalem lutnutin Tabeel chapa chu Judah lengpan gatungute,’ atiuve.
We go up into Judah, and we distress it, And we divide it to ourselves, And we cause a king to reign in its midst—The son of Tabeal.
7 Hinla hichehi Thuneipen Pakaiyin kaseipeh nahiuve: Hitia gal ahung bol gotnuhi guilhunglou ding ahi.
Thus said Lord YHWH: It does not stand, nor will it be!
8 Ajehchu Syria hi akhopi Damascus sanga jong hatmojo ahi’n, chuleh Damascus jong alengpau Rezin sanga hatmojo ahi. Israel chu ahi kit leh, kum somguple-nga kah-a suhchimit le suhgama umding ahitai.
For the head of Aram [is] Damascus, And the head of Damascus [is] Rezin, And within sixty-five years Is Ephraim broken from [being] a people.
9 Israel chu akhopi, Samaria sanga hatmojo ahi’n, chuleh Samaria chu alengpau Pekah, Remaliah chapa, sanga hatmojo ahikitne. Natahsanna adet kahsea nangma kadindetsah theilou ahi,” tiin gaseipehtan ati.
And the head of Ephraim [is] Samaria, And the head of Samaria [is] the son of Remaliah. If you do not give credence, Surely you are not steadfast.”
10 Chomkhat jouvin, Pakaiyin Leng Ahaz hengah thuhetsah hitihin athottai:
And YHWH adds to speak to Ahaz, saying,
11 “Pakai na-Pathen chun photchen melchihna ahinpeh dingin thum'in, Ahaz. Ahahtheipen—van san geiya sang ahiloule mithikho umna geiya thuh hijongleh nadeigotnin thumna bolin,” ati. (Sheol h7585)
“Ask for a sign from your God YHWH, Make the request deep, or make [it] high upwards.” (Sheol h7585)
12 Hinla lengpa anompon, “Angaipoi. Keiman Pakai chu hitichun patep ponge,” ati.
And Ahaz says, “I do not ask nor try YHWH.”
13 Chuin Isaiah’n aseiyin, “Phaten ngaiyun nangho David leng-insungmiten! Mihem jaidojouna le thohhatjouna suhlhah jong phaset hitalouham? Pathen thohhatjouna jong suhlhah tei ding nagot nah laiyuham?
And he says, “Now hear, O house of David, Is it a little thing for you to weary men, That you also weary my God?
14 Ahileh aphai, Pakaiyin Ama chama melchihna ahinpeh ding ahi. Veuvin! Nungah thengin nao ahinvop ding ahi! Amanu chun chapa ahinnei ding amin Immanuel (hichu ‘Pathenin eiumpiuve’ tina) asah ding ahi.
Therefore the Lord Himself gives a sign to you, Behold, the virgin is conceiving, And is bringing forth a Son, And has called His Name Immanuel,

He eats butter and honey, When He knows to refuse evil, and to fix on good.
16 Ijeh-inem iti leh naosen chu chutithei dinga akhanlet masanga, nakichat mama jeng lengteni gamsung chu akidalhasa khogemnung hiding ahitai.
For before the youth knows To refuse evil, and to fix on good, The land you are distressed with is forsaken, because of her two kings.
17 Chuteng Pakaiyin nangma chung, nanam sung, chuleh nainsungmite chunga Judah-a kon’a Israel apetdoh-a pat itih-a lhung khalou thil ahinlhunsah ding ahi. Assyria lengpa nachunga hung leng ding ahi!
YHWH brings on you, and on your people, And on the house of your father, Days that have not come, Even from the day of the turning aside of Ephraim from Judah, By the king of Asshur.”
18 Chuniteng chuleh Pakaiyin Egypt lhanglam le Assyria galsat gal-hangho dinga khutkoi amutging ding ahi. Amaho chun thousi le khoite banga nahin lonkhum diu ahi.
And it has come to pass in that day, YHWH hisses for a fly that [is] in the extremity of the brooks of Egypt, And for a bee that [is] in the land of Asshur.
19 Amaho chu ahonpiuva hung lenglutnuva gamphalai jouse, phaicham gam-ong, komtong, songkohom chule linglekhao lah geiya jong hung chengdim diu ahi.
And they have come, and all of them rested in the desolate valleys, And in holes of the rocks, and on all the thorns, And on all the commendable things.
20 Chuniteng chuleh Pakaiyin Euphrates luigalla Assyria lengpa-a kon’a thihhem athalah-a nagam, naloulaiya ga le kehho chule namite chu a-attansohhel ding ahi.
In that day the Lord shaves, By a razor that is hired beyond the river, By the king of Asshur, The head, and the hair of the feet, Indeed, it also consumes the beard.

And it has come to pass, He eats butter from the abundance of the yielding of milk, For everyone who is left in the heart of the land eats butter and honey.
23 Chuniteng chuleh tua dangka sangkhat man lengpileiho hi ling le khao lah kisohgam diu ahitai.
And it has come to pass in that day, Every place where there are one thousand vines, At one thousand pieces of silver, Is for briers and for thorns.
24 Agampheng pumpi chu ling le khao lah, gamsaho lhatna le gamlengho gamlenna higam ding ahitai.
He comes there with arrows and with bow, Because all the land is brier and thorn.

And all the hills that are kept in order with a mattock, There does not come [for] fear of brier and thorn, And it has been for the sending forth of ox, And for the treading of sheep!
