Nahum 2
1 Nagal mipan suhmang ding ngaiton ahung in, kihongphan Pasal pha pha kulpia pansah-in lang lampi vephan; chule nakong kigah in lang, nathahat pan in pang in.
He that dasheth in pieces is come up before thy face: keep the fortress, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily.
2 Ajeh chu Pakaiyin Israel lal loupina banga Jacob lal loupina jong asemphat kit ding ahi; chule michomgam’a pang hon achom ngimsel’uva ahalsi sia asuh manguva amonsa alupsah-u ahitai.
For the LORD hath turned away the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Israel: for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine branches.
3 Chule asepai gal-hat ho chu alumu asan soh keijin, A sepaiten abonchauvin pon san-ao akisil sohkeijun. Kangtalai jouse jong meisi bang in apah lah lah-in, Galsat dia akigoltoh tenguleh akipat kal’u angah lel’ui.
The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken.
4 Chule kholai dunga kangtalai jouse aki hon lul lul’un, Veng ningkoi dung jousea asuh lhai atou lhaijun, Chule meikong kidevah bangin achanthe thu’uvin, chujongleh kolphe vah bangin aphelap lap’uve.
The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall jostle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.
5 Chuleh vaibol’a pang ho akoukhom’uvin, ache nauva akipal lhugam tauve; chule amahon pal phungla adel loijun, asangkhol chol’u akihoh doh bangin akijal dep dop e.
He shall recount his nobles: they shall stumble in their walk; they shall make haste to her wall, and the defence shall be prepared.
6 Chujongleh vadung kelkot phung jouse akihong soh tan, Leng inpia mite a lungthoi soh tauve.
The gates of the rivers shall be opened, and the palace shall be dissolved.
7 Lengnu avon asut lhauvin akai mang tauve, chuleh ajenle a pang nu-ngah ho akap kap’uvin, vahuite ham athouvin amao setsot’un, a-op achum achum jeng uvin ahi.
And Huzzab shall be led away captive, she shall be brought up, and her maids shall lead her as with the voice of doves, beating upon their breasts.
8 Chuleh Nineveh khopi hi twikul lentah hija asunga twi jouse long kanghel tobang ahitai. “Kho ngaijin! Kho ngaijin!” tin mihonpi chun asam asam jeng uvin, koima chala akinung hei tapoi.
But Nineveh is of old like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. Stand, stand, shall they cry; but none shall look back.
9 Chule dangka kichom uvin lang Sana jong kichom’uvin! thil kikhol ho hi chom joutih aum tapon, chule gou hijat thil manlu ho jong hi abei thei tapoi.
Take ye the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold: for there is no end of the store and glory out of all the pleasant furniture.
10 Hijeh chun chom uvin langchom ngimhel’un ahomsan koijun! Mihem lungthim alha lhopsoh tan, mihem khupbuh jouse akithing sohhel tai, mihem jouse akong akhasoh-in, mihem jouse maiadup soh hel tai!
She is empty, and void, and waste: and the heart melteth, and the knees smite together, and much pain is in all loins, and the faces of them all gather blackness.
11 Chule sakei bahkai ho kihenna hong chu hoilai hiya? chule sakei bahkai noute kihenna chu akosung chu hoilai ham? Sakei bahkai ten aneh diu sa akipohlut uva, asukin ding beihel’a anoute toh aneh nau chu hoilai ham?
Where is the dwelling of the lions, and the feedingplace of the young lions, where the lion, even the old lion, walked, and the lion’s whelp, and none made them afraid?
12 Sakei bahkaipin anoute neh kham dingbep akitha jouvin, sakei bahkai pan jong api dingin sahing phabep akoije; Akosung jong chu sahing athasa adim set’in, chule ahong sung sahin botelsa adimset’e.
The lion tore in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his holes with prey, and his dens with torn flesh.
13 Hichun thaneipen Pakai chun aseijin, vetan keima nang dou din kapang’e, chuleh na kangtalai jouse kahal vama, ameikhu ki tung let lut ding; chujong leh na sakei bahkai noute jong chemjama katha ding ahi; chule leiset chunga kona na kivah na ding sahing jouse katol mangsoh ding, nasot tol le a pang miho thusei awgin kijapha lou helding ahi.
Behold, I am against thee, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword shall devour thy young lions: and I will cut off thy prey from the earth, and the voice of thy messengers shall no more be heard.
