< 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.
In the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, Rezin the king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up to Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail 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.
David’s house was told, “Syria is allied with Ephraim.” His heart trembled, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest tremble with the 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.
Then the LORD said to Isaiah, “Go out now to meet Ahaz, you, and Shearjashub your son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool, on 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.
Tell him, ‘Be careful, and keep calm. Don’t be afraid, neither let your heart be faint because of these two tails of smoking torches, for the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.
5 Henge, Syria Lengpa le Israel Lengpa chu nangma dou dingin ahungkon lhonin,
Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have plotted evil against you, saying,
6 ‘Judah gamsung bulu-utin amite lunglinglaovin koiyute. Chuteng Jerusalem lutnutin Tabeel chapa chu Judah lengpan gatungute,’ atiuve.
“Let’s go up against Judah, and tear it apart, and let’s divide it among ourselves, and set up a king within it, even the son of Tabeel.”
7 Hinla hichehi Thuneipen Pakaiyin kaseipeh nahiuve: Hitia gal ahung bol gotnuhi guilhunglou ding ahi.
This is what the Lord GOD says: “It shall not stand, neither shall it happen.”
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 Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin. Within sixty-five years Ephraim shall be broken in pieces, so that it shall not be 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.
The head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If you will not believe, surely you shall not be established.’”
10 Chomkhat jouvin, Pakaiyin Leng Ahaz hengah thuhetsah hitihin athottai:
The LORD spoke again 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 a sign of the LORD your God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above.” (Sheol h7585)
12 Hinla lengpa anompon, “Angaipoi. Keiman Pakai chu hitichun patep ponge,” ati.
But Ahaz said, “I won’t ask. I won’t tempt the LORD.”
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?
He said, “Listen now, house of David. Is it not enough for you to try the patience of men, that you will try the patience of my God also?
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 will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin will conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
15 Hiche naosen chun ase le apha hetkhentheina neiya ahung khanlet teng tah chuleh bongnoi-ha le khoiju aneh ding ahi.
He shall eat butter and honey when he knows to refuse the evil and choose the 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 child knows to refuse the evil and choose the good, the land whose two kings you abhor shall be forsaken.
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!
The LORD will bring on you, on your people, and on your father’s house days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah, even the king of Assyria.
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.
It will happen in that day that the LORD will whistle for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
19 Amaho chu ahonpiuva hung lenglutnuva gamphalai jouse, phaicham gam-ong, komtong, songkohom chule linglekhao lah geiya jong hung chengdim diu ahi.
They shall come, and shall all rest in the desolate valleys, in the clefts of the rocks, on all thorn hedges, and on all pastures.
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 will shave with a razor that is hired in the parts beyond the River, even with the king of Assyria, the head and the hair of the feet; and it shall also consume the beard.
21 Chuniteng chuleh bong lagol khat le kelngoi ahiloule kelcha ni neijou loubolmi chu avangpha hiding ahi.
It shall happen in that day that a man shall keep alive a young cow, and two sheep.
22 Ahijengvanga, akoijouse dinga bongnoi vang kininglhing ding ahi — ijeh-inem iti leh agamsunga chu mihem lhomcha bou umding ahitai. Amaho chu bongnoi-ha le khoijua kivah diu ahi.
It shall happen, that because of the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat butter, for everyone will eat butter and honey that is left within the land.
23 Chuniteng chuleh tua dangka sangkhat man lengpileiho hi ling le khao lah kisohgam diu ahitai.
It will happen in that day that every place where there were a thousand vines worth a thousand silver shekels, will be for briers and thorns.
24 Agampheng pumpi chu ling le khao lah, gamsaho lhatna le gamlengho gamlenna higam ding ahitai.
People will go there with arrows and with bow, because all the land will be briers and thorns.
25 Lhanggam ngalbu nem lah le pahcha anapahna hon lama koima chetalou ding ahi—ijeh-inem itileh hilam munho chu ling le khao dimtantin, bong le kelcha-kelngoiho lhatna le kivahvana mun hiding ahitai,” ati.
All the hills that were cultivated with the hoe, you shall not come there for fear of briers and thorns; but it shall be for the sending out of oxen, and for sheep to tread on.”
