1 Hiche hi Pakaija konna Ram gamleh Damascus khopi demna in Pakai thupeh ahung lhung in ahi. Ajeh chu Israel phungho leh mitin vaipi mitnin Pakai lambou ave tauvin ahi.
An oracle: The message of the Lord concerns the land of Hadrach, it rests upon Damascus. For the capital of Aram belongs to the Lord, as the tribes of Israel do,
2 Damascus komma um Hanath leh Tyre le Sidon khopiho achih lheh vangun mahthah teidiu ahi.
and also Hamath which borders on it. Tyre and Sidon, for all their wisdom.
3 Tyre hin galdouna phatah nei jong leh sana le dangka lamlenna vutvai bahsah jeng jongleu,
Tyre built for herself a fortress. Heaped up silver as dust, and gold like the dirt of the streets.
4 Tun Pakaiyin Tyre neilegou jouse achomkhom in twikhanglen'ah asep lhatan chuleh meiyin akahlhah ding ahi.
But now the Lord will dispossess her, cast down her rampart into the sea. She will be consumed in fire.
5 Ashkelon khopi hin Tyre a suhlhuh ding chuleh lungkhamna dimset ding ahi. Gaza tijatnan lodim intin, Ekron kinepna hung beiding Gaza lengpa hung kithat intin, Askelon a koima hung cheng lou ding ahi.
Ashkelon will see and fear, and Gaza writhe in anguish, Ekron, also for her hope will be put to shame. The king will perish from Gaza, Ashkelon will remain uninhabited.
6 Ashdod khopi gam chom in ahin lodim ding keiman Palistine kiletsahna kasuh ding ahi.
A foreign people will settle in Ashdod, and I will humble the pride of the Philistines.

I will take their blood from their mouth, and their abominations from between their teeth. They also will be a remnant for our God, like a clan in Judah, and Ekron will be like the Jebusites.
8 Keiman ka Hou-in kaven tup jing ding chuleh agalmiteu a konna kahuhdoh ding, chuleh gamdang miten agam sungu ahin lonvuh louna diuva kavetsui ding ahi.
But I will encamp as a guard about my house, so that none will pass through or return, and no oppressor will pass through them again, for now I have seen with my own eyes.

Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion! Shout aloud, daughter of Jerusalem! Look, your king comes to you. Vindicated and victorious is he, humble, and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

13 Judah hi kathalpi, Israel hi kathalchang chuleh Jerusalem hi ka chemjam nahiuve, galhatpa banga keiman Greekte douna kamanchah ding nahiuve.
For I have bent Judah to me, like a bow which I have filled with Ephraim like an arrow. I will urge your sons, Zion, against the sons of Greece, I will make you like the sword of a hero.
14 Pakai chu namite chunga hung kilangding athalpi chu kolphe banga hung lengding, lalchung nung Pakai chun sumkon ahin mutna lhanglam neldi gamma chimpei banga gal ahinsat ding ahi.
Then the Lord will be seen above them and his arrow will go forth like lightning. The Lord will blow a blast upon a trumpet, and travel on the whirlwinds of the south.

And the Lord their God will save them on that day, as the flock of his people, as the jewel of a crown shining in his land.
