Isaiah 10
1 Vonhlamrinci hoi kaawm naw rektap nahanelah thoseh,
Woe to them that write wickedness; for when they write they do write wickedness,
2 ka taminaw thung dawk e ka mathoenaw ni a coe awh hane kawi hah lawp hanelah thoseh, lahmainunaw rektap hane, naranaw e hnopai lawp hanelah kalanhoehe lah lawk katâtuengkung, caretkacailah ca kathutkungnaw, nangmouh teh na yawthoe awh.
perverting the cause of the poor, violently wresting the judgment of the needy ones of my people, that the widow may be a prey to them, and the orphan a spoil.
3 Runae na kâhmo hane hnin, rawknae ahlanae koehoi a tho navah, na kabawm hanelah, api koe maw na yawng awh han. Na hnopai tawnta e naw teh namamouh ni na pâtung awh han.
And what will they do in the day of visitation? for affliction shall come to you from afar: and to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory,
4 Taran tuknae koe na due awh han, hoehpawiteh, san lah na hrawi awh han. Hatei, a lungkhueknae teh roum hoeh, a kut teh pou a dâw rah.
that ye may not fall into captivity? For all this [his] wrath is not turned away, but [his] hand is yet exalted.
5 Aya! Assiria teh ka lungkhueknae bongpai lah ao. Ahni ni a patuep e sonron teh, runae ka poe nahanelah ao.
Woe to the Assyrians; the rod of my wrath, and anger are in their hands.
6 Cathut banglah ka ngâi hoeh naw onae koe ahni hah ka patoun. Ka lungkhueknae ka khang hane taminaw hah a lawp vaiteh, a raphoe vaiteh, lam dawk e tangdong patetlah a coungroe nahanlah lawk ka thui han.
I will send my wrath against a sinful nation, and I will charge my people to take plunder and spoil, and to trample the cities, and to make them dust.
7 Hatei, ahni teh, amae a lung thung vah, alouke pouknae hoi alouke ngainae a tawn. Ahni ni raphoenae hoi miphun moikapap hah thei hanelah a ngainae ao.
But he meant not thus, neither did he devise thus in his soul: but his mind shall change, and [that] to destroy nations not a few.
8 Ahni ni hettelah a dei: Kaie ransabawinaw teh siangpahrangnaw nahoehmaw.
And if they should say to him, Thou alone art ruler;
9 Kalno kho teh Kakhemish kho patetlah Hamath kho teh Arpad kho patetlah nahoehmaw, Samaria kho teh Damaskas kho patetlah nahoehmaw ao vaw.
then shall he say, Have I not taken the country above Babylon and Chalanes, where the tower was built? and have I [not] taken Arabia, and Damascus, and Samaria?
10 Samaria meikaphawk hoi Jerusalem meikaphawk ka talue e meikaphawk ka bawk e uknaeramnaw hah ka lawp e patetlah thoseh,
As I have taken them, I will also take all the kingdoms: howl, ye idols in Jerusalem, and in Samaria.
11 Samaria kho hoi a meikaphawknaw koe ka sak e patetlah thoseh, Jerusalem hoi ahnie meikaphawknaw koe ka sak han nahoehmaw.
For as I did to Samaria and her idols, so will I do also to Jerusalem and her idols.
12 Hatei, BAWIPA ni Zion mon hoi Jerusalem vah thaw a cum hnukkhu, Assiria siangpahrang e a lungthin hoi a kâoupnae hoi, a mit hoi a kâlennae dawkvah, runae ka poe han.
And it shall come to pass, when the Lord shall have finished doing all things on Mount Sion and Jerusalem, [that] I will visit upon the proud heart, [even] upon the ruler of the Assyrians, and upon the boastful haughtiness of his eyes.
13 Hote siangpahrang ni, kai teh kama e kut thao thasainae hoi, ka lungangnae hoi ka panue thai. Taminaw e khorinaw hah ka tahruet pouh toe. Ahnimae hnopai pueng ka lawp toe. Siangpahrangnaw hah maitotan patetlah beng ka sawn toe.
For he said, I will act in strength, and in the wisdom of [my] understanding I will remove the boundaries of nations, and will spoil their strength.
14 Ka kut ni tava tabu a kasum e patetlah ahnimae hnopainaw teh ka kasum pouh toe. A ceitakhai e tava tadui ka lae patetlah talai hno kaawm e pueng hah ka la toe. Apihai a rathei kâhuen sak hoeh. A pahni ang hoeh. Cairing hoeh ati.
And I will shake the inhabited cities: and I will take with my hand all the world as a nest: and I will even take them as eggs that have been left; and there is none that shall escape me, or contradict me.
15 Bongpai ni tami tawm hoeh, tami ni doeh a sonron a tawm e patetlah Cakâ ni ka hno kung lathueng a kâoup thai maw. Hlaw ni ka hno kung koe a kâoup kawi na maw.
Shall the axe glorify itself without him that hews with it? or shall the saw lift up itself without him that uses it, as if one should lift a rod or staff? but it shall not be so;
16 Hatdawkvah, ransahu Bawipa Jehovah ni, kingking kaboumlah ka cat ka net e siangpahrang koe, pheng kamsoenae hah a patoun pouh han. A bawilennae rahim vah, hmai ka kang e patetlah a kak han.
but the Lord of hosts shall send dishonour upon thine honour, and burning fire shall be kindled upon thy glory.
17 Isarelnaw e angnae teh hmai lah ao han. Kathounge Cathut teh hmaipalai lah ao han. Hnin touh hoiyah, ahnimae pâkhing buruk hoi rapan pueng teh mueng ka yawng lah a kak han.
And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and he shall sanctify him with burning fire, and it shall devour the wood as grass.
18 BAWIPA ni, ratu bawilennae hoi, caticamu a pawnae laikawk bawilennae hai a raphoe pouh han. A tak hoi muitha hai a tha baw vaiteh, ka ngouk e patetlah ao han.
In that day the mountains shall be consumed, and the hills, and the forests, and [fire] shall devour [both] soul and body: and he that flees shall be as one fleeing from burning flame.
19 Camo ni a touk thai nahanelah, ratu youn touh a cawi han.
And they that are left of them shall be a [small] number, and a child shall write them.
20 Hat hnin toteh, runae ka hlout ni teh kacawie Isarelnaw hoi Jakop imthungnaw teh, amamouh karektapkungnaw koe bout kâuep awh toung laipalah, Isarelnaw e Kathounge BAWIPA koe atangcalah a kâuep awh han.
And it shall come to pass in that day [that] the remnant of Israel shall no more join themselves with, and the saved of Jacob shall no more trust in, them that injured them; but they shall trust in the Holy God of Israel, in truth.
21 Kacawiraenaw bout a ban awh han. Jakop miphun dawk kacawiraenaw teh, athakaawme Cathut koe bout a ban awh han.
And the remnant of Jacob shall [trust] on the mighty God.
22 Oe Isarelnaw, nange taminaw teh, tuipui rai e sadi yit touh ka phat ei nakunghai, kacawie naw duengdoeh bout ka ban awh han. Rawknae teh sut hmoun e lah ao dawkvah, lannae lahoi ahnimouh teh a ramuk han.
And though the people of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant of them shall be saved.
23 Rasahu Bawipa Jehovah ni, talai van lungui vah a hmoun tangcoung e runae teh a sak han.
He will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because the Lord will make a short work in all the world.
24 Hatdawkvah, ka Bawipa ransabawi Jehovah ni a dei e teh, Oe ka taminaw, Zion vah kaawm e naw, Assiria siangpahrang hah taket awh hanh. Izip siangpahrang ni a sak e patetlah ahnie bongpai hoi sonron hoi na hem awh han.
Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, Be not afraid, my people who dwell in Sion, of the Assyrians, because he shall smite thee with a rod: for I am bringing a stroke upon thee, that [thou] mayest see the way of Egypt.
25 Hatei, ahnimouh rawknae koe a pha e lahoi, dongdeng ca dawk ka lungkhueknae teh a roum han.
For yet a little while, and the indignation shall cease: but my wrath shall be against their council.
26 Rasahu BAWIPA ni Oreb lungsong teng Midiannaw a hem e patetlah thoseh, tuipui van sonron dâw e patetlah thoseh, Izipnaw koe a sak e patetlah thoseh, ahnimanaw hah a hem han.
And God will stir up [enemies] against them, according to the stroke of Madiam in the place of affliction: and his wrath shall be by the way of the sea, [even] to the way that leads to Egypt.
27 Hatnae hnin dawkvah, ahnie hnokari teh na loung dawk hoi thoseh, na lahuen dawk hoi thoseh takhoe lah ao han. Thâwnae kecu dawk na lahuen dawk e yawcu teh a rek han.
And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] his yoke shall be taken away from thy shoulder, and his fear from thee, and the yoke shall be destroyed from off your shoulders.
28 Aiath kho dawk a pha toe. Migron a tapoung toe. Mikmash kho vah hnopainaw teh a ta awh toe.
For he shall arrive at the city of Angai, and shall pass on to Maggedo, and shall lay up his stores in Machmas.
29 Sanengnaw a tapuet awh toe. Geba kho vah a tungpup awh toe. Ramah kho teh a taki toe. Sawl onae Gibeah kho teh a yawng toe.
And he shall pass by the valley, and shall arrive at Angai: fear shall seize upon Rama, the city of Saul.
30 Oe Gallim canu, hramki haw. Oe Laish kho na hnâpakeng haw. Anathoth kho a temdeng toe.
The daughter of Gallim shall flee; Laisa shall hear; one shall hear in Anathoth.
31 Madmenah kho teh a kampuen toe. Gebim khocanaw teh hloutnae koe a yawng awh toe.
Madebena also is amazed, and the inhabitants of Gibbir.
32 Nob kho vah sahnin ao awh teh, Zion canu e mon lah kaawm e Jerusalem mon hah, a kut hoi a kahuet han.
Exhort ye [them] to-day to remain in the way: exhort ye [beckoning] with the hand the mountain, the daughter of Sion, even ye hills that are in Jerusalem.
33 Rasahu Bawipa Jehovah ni thingkangnaw rabat e patetlah takikathopounge bahu hoi, a kangnaw hah bouk vaiteh, ka rasang e a kangnaw hah reprep a satut han.
Behold, the Lord, the Lord of hosts, will mightily confound the glorious ones; and the haughty in pride shall be crushed, and the lofty shall be brought low:
34 Ratu kathapounge hah cakâ hoi tâtueng vaiteh, Lebanon teh, athakaawme kut dawk hoi a rawp awh han. Kaie lung hai a roum han.
and the lofty ones shall fall by the sword, and the Libanus shall fall with his lofty ones.
