Ka La 2
1 Pakai alunghan jal'in Jerusalem khopi hoitah chu muthim lhangkhalin atome. Isreal khopi hoi jouse vutvam asoh gam tan, vanchung sanga konin selhah in a um’e. Pakai a lunghan behseh jeh in ahou in jeng jong khoto na anei tapoi.
ALEPH. How has the Lord darkened in his wrath the daughter of Sion! he has cast down the glory of Israel from heaven to earth, and has not remembered his footstool.
2 Khotona beihel in Pakaiyin Isreal insung jouse a subeiyin, a lunghan nan Jerusalem kulpi len jouse a suchip gam’e. Aman aleng gam ule alengteu jong jum tahin tol jep nan anei gam tai.
BETH. In the day of his wrath the Lord has overwhelmed [her] as in the sea, [and] not spared: he has brought down in his fury all the beautiful things of Jacob; he has brought down to the ground the strongholds of the daughter of Juda; he has profaned her kings and her princes.
3 Pakai lunghan na noi a Isreal thaneina jouse a mangthah gam tai. Galmi ten ahin delkhum nauva jong a huhdoh tapon ahi. Aman Isreal gam pumpi chu meikong in ahal lhah bang in ahal gam tan ahi.
GIMEL. He has broken in his fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he has turned back his right hand from the face of the enemy, and has kindled a flame in Jacob as a fire, and it has devoured all things round about.
4 Aman agalmite bangin amite chung a athalpi kaosan akoiyin, agollhang hoilai jouse thagam ding in atha aje doh in ahi. Loupitah Jerusalem chunga alunghan na meikong bangin abunglhan ahi.
DALETH. He has bent his bow as an opposing enemy: he has strengthened his right hand as an adversary, and has destroyed all the desirable things of my eyes in the tabernacle of the daughter of Sion: he has poured forth his anger as fire.
5 Pakaiyin Isrealte hi agalmi bang in a suhchip in, Aman loupitah Jerusalem chunga lungkham nale mitlhilon angahna beijin alhun khum sah’e.
HE. The Lord is become as an enemy: he has overwhelmed Israel as in the sea, he has overwhelmed her palaces: he has destroyed her strongholds, and has multiplied the afflicted and humbled ones to the daughter of Juda.
6 Aman houin jong honsunga buh kisa bang in a sulhun, Pakaiyin anikho thengho ahin, cholngah nikhoho le kut nikho thengho ahin suhmil thei leuvin asubei jin leng hole thempu ho jong a lungsat na noija a subei gam tan ahi.
VAU. And he has scattered his tabernacle as a vine, he has marred his feast: the Lord has forgotten the feast and the sabbath which he appointed in Sion, and in the fury of his wrath has vexed the king, and priest, and prince.
7 Pakaiyin amaicham jeng jong a nuse in, amuntheng jeng jong nahsah louvin akoiyin, Jerusalem lengpa inpi ho jong galmiho a pedoh’e. Amahon Pakai houin sung chu golnop kibolni bangin, o’thongje jun apoh chei choi jengun ahi.
ZAIN. The Lord has rejected his altar, he has cast off his sanctuary, he has broken by the hand of the enemy the wall of her palaces; they have uttered their voice in the house of the Lord as on a feast day.
8 Khopi hoitah Jerusalem chu apal jouse suhlhah ding angaiton, aman atoh gon bang bang in a sulhu soh tan ahi. Hijeh chun pal hole palvum jouse jong amasanga alhusoh tan ahi.
HETH. And he has turned to destroy the wall of the daughter of Sion: he has stretched out the measuring line, he has not turned back his hand from afflicting [her]: therefore the bulwark mourned, and the wall was weakened with it.
9 Jerusalem kelkot phung jouse jong tol ah aki jamchap soh helin, akel kot gol jouse jong aheh bongin a sumang soh tai. Jerusalem lengpa leh milen milal ho jong namtin vaipi laha akithe thangsoh taove. Danthu kitila abeitan Themgao hon jong Pakaiya konin mu anei tapouve.
TETH. Her gates are sunk into the ground: he has destroyed and broken to pieces her bars, [and] her king and her prince among the Gentiles: there is no law, nay, her prophets have seen no vision from the Lord.
10 Khopi hoitah Jerusalem sunga lamkaiho tolla thip beh chan atouvun, a lujang uva leivui a kinuvin, khaodip pon akisil un, Jerusalem nungah jousen jum le jachat tothon a kaiku jeng taove.
JOD. The elders of the daughter of Sion have sat upon the ground, they have kept silence: they have cast up dust upon their heads; they have girded themselves with sackcloths: they have brought down to the ground the chief virgins in Jerusalem.
11 Kamitlhi twi kan tokahin ka kap jingin, ka lungsung achip lhatai. Kholai dunga chapang neocha ho athileh aki saisaijuva, kamite hahsatna khankho ka mu jeh in ka lungthim sung jong akap doh jeng in ahi.
CHAPH. Mine eyes have failed with tears, my heart is troubled, my glory is cast down to the ground, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; while the infant and suckling swoon in the streets of the city.
12 Anuteu henga, Nehding le donding kangaichai tin athumun. Galsatpa galmunna akimavo bangin, kholai dunga thabeiyin apengun, anu teuvin apom nau chunga ahinkho’u abeithu thu jeng in ahi.
LAMED. They said to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? while they fainted like wounded men in the streets of the city, while their souls were poured out into their mother's bosom.
13 Hichan geija lungkhamna toh ho chunga ipi kasei thei ding ham? Vo Jerusalem Chanute, na lung hesoh naohi ipitoh kitekah ding ahm? Oh Zion chanu thengte iti ka lhamon jou ding na hiuvem? Ajeh chu nathoh gimnao hi twikhanglen bangin athuh jengin koiham na boldam jou diu vah?
MEM. What shall I testify to you, or what shall I compare to you, O daughter of Jerusalem? who shall save and comfort you, O virgin daughter of Sion? for the cup of your destruction is enlarged: who shall heal you?
14 Na themgao teuvinla jouthu ngen leh ngolhoi thu ngen na seipeh uvin, na soh chan nauva konna nahung kiledoh theina diuva na chonsetnau phondoh peh ding la ago pouvin, chutia bolsang in jouthu ngen jeng apat thu uvin, thil dihlou ngen na kinep sah jiuvin ahi.
NUN. Your prophets have seen for you vanities and folly: and they have not discovered your iniquity, to turn back your captivity; but they have seen for you vain burdens, and worthless visions.
15 Ache le avahle ho jousen na nel peh un khopi hoitah Jerusalem hi noise tah in atot chatvei khummun; “hiche hi vannoi leisetna khopi hoipen vannoi pumpin achoi sang uchu ham?” atiuve.
SAMECH. All that go by the way have clapped their hands at you; they have hissed and shaken their head at the daughter of Jerusalem. Is this the city, they say, the crown of joy of all the earth?
16 Nagalmite jousen na nelpeh un noise tah in anop nop na seikhumun, “suhmang dinga phat sottah ina nga’u chu tun ahung guilhung tai!” atiuve.
AIN. All your enemies have opened their mouth against you: they have hissed and gnashed their teeth, and said, We have swallowed her up: moreover this is the day which we looked for; we have found it, we have seen it.
17 Ahinlah hiche hi Pakaiyin a tohgon chu aboldoh ahin, hamsetna hunglhung dinga ana gonsa chu a suhbulhit ahi. Aman Jerusalem chu khotona beihella ana suhbei ahin, Aman agalmiteu chu amaho chunga thaneina anapeh ahi.
PHE. The Lord has done that which he purposed; he has accomplished his word, [even] the things which he commanded from the ancient days: he has thrown down, and has not spared: and he has caused the enemy to rejoice over you, he has exalted the horn of him that afflicted you.
18 Khopi hoi Jerusalem, Pakai angah hakan kap in, Sun le jan in vadung bangin na mitlhi long hen. kicholdo hihhel in; Na mitlhi lon jong tansah dan.
TSADE. Their heart cried to the Lord, You walls of Sion, pour down tears like torrents day and night: give yourself no rest; let not the apple of your eyes cease.
19 Janlai jong leh thouvin pengjah jengin. Pakai angah na lung ngaichat twi bangin lonsah in. Nachateu dingin na taonao khut chu domsang jing un, ajeh chu kholai dung jousea gilkela lhalhop gamsoh ahitaove.
KOPH. Arise, rejoice in the night at the beginning of your watch: pour out your heart as water before the face of the Lord; lift up your hands to him for the life of your infants, who faint for hunger at the top of all the streets.
20 Vo Pakai hiche thoh gimna hi gel temin! Na chate hi hiti lom lom’a nabol jing ding hitam? Minuten a angsunga hung kitolchem, achateu kisanhi aneh jeng diu hitam? Thempu holeh themgao ho kisan hi Pakai houin sunga kithat jeng ding hitam?
RHECHS. Behold, O Lord, and see for whom you has gathered thus. Shall the women eat the fruit of their womb? the cook has made a gathering: shall the infants sucking at the breasts be slain? will you kill the priest and prophet in the sanctuary of the Lord?
21 Ven, lamlen dunga kijam chap ho khu – Khangdong le tehseho, Numei chapang holeh pasal chapang ho, Galmite chemjam a thijeng ahiuve. Na lung han petin nathat gamin, Lungsetna beihelin nabol’e.
CHSEN. The child and old man have lain down in the street: my virgins and my young men are gone into captivity: you have slain [them] with the sword and with famine; in the day of your wrath you have mangled [them], you has not spared.
22 Golvah nikhoa mipi nakou khom bangin, Muntin jousea tijatna nakoukhom’e. Pakai lunghanna nikhon, Koi macha a sohcha le ahingdoh a um poi. Kahin khoukhah le kahin puihoi chate chengse, Galmiten a thatgamsoh heltai.
THAU. He has called my sojourners round about to a solemn day, and there was not in the day of the wrath of the Lord any one that escaped or was left; whereas I have strengthened and multiplied all mine enemies.
