< Isaiah 25 >
1 Oe Jehovah, nang teh kaie Cathut lah na o. Na bari vaiteh, na min ka pholen han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang ni kângairu hnonaw hah na sak toe. Ayan e na pouknae teh, yuemkamcunae lahoi a cak awh.
Lord, you are my God. I will honor you and praise who you are, because you have done wonderful things that you planned long ago. You are faithful and trustworthy!
2 Kho hah songnawng lah na coung sak teh, kacakpounge kho hah na tip sak. Ramlouknaw e imnaw teh kho lah awm hoeh toe. Hotnaw hah nâtuek hai bout sak awh mahoeh toe.
You have turned the city into a pile of rubble; the fortified town is now a ruin; the foreigner palace is gone. It is no longer a city and it will never be rebuilt.
3 Hatdawkvah, athakaawme miphun teh, Bawipa nang na pholen awh han. Taki ka tho e miphunnaw e kho ni nang teh na taki awh han.
Because of this powerful nations will honor you; cities of brutal nations will be in awe of you.
4 Bawipa nang teh mathoenaw e rapan, runae koe ka phat e vonhlamrincinaw hanelah kângue e, cakho a tho nah kâhatnae, khumbei um vah tâhlip lah na o. Bangkongtetpawiteh, taki ka tho naw e lungkhueknae teh, tapang kahmâng e cakho patetlah thoseh,
But you have protected the poor and needy when they were in trouble, you shielded them from storms and shaded them from the heat. For the actions of brutal people are like rain beating against a wall,
5 ramkenae koehoi e khumbei patetlah thoseh ao. Bawipa nang ni, ramlouknaw e pawrin teh na roum sak pouh. Tâmai tâhlip dawk khumbei a bet e patetlah taki ka thonaw e la sak lawk teh a kahma han.
like heat in a desert. You end the noisy uprising of foreigners. In the same way that a cloud's shadow cools down the heat of the day, so the song sung by brutal people is silenced.
6 Rasahu BAWIPA niyah, kahawipoung e ai kawi, cakawi naw hoi misur yamunaw hoi tami pueng hanelah, hete mon dawk canei pawi pui a to pouh awh han.
On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare a feast for all nations, a lavish feast of aged wines, rich food, and the best meat.
7 Tami pueng ka ramuk e minhmai ramuknae hoi ram pueng ka ramuk e minhmai ramuknae hah, hete mon dawk Bawipa ni a takhoe han.
On this mountain he will destroy the veil that covers all the nations, the sheet that is over everyone.
8 Duenae hah a yungyoe a payawp han toe. Bawipa Jehovah ni, tami pueng e minhmai dawk hoi mitphi hui pouh vaiteh, a taminaw ni a khang awh e pathoenae hah, talai van dawk hoi takhoe pouh han toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni hottelah a dei.
He will destroy death forever. The Lord God will wipe away all tears, and everywhere he will take away the humiliation suffered by his people. The Lord has spoken.
9 Hat hnin vah, khenhaw! Hete Bawipa teh, maimouh rungngang hanelah, maimouh ni ngaihawi e maimae BAWIPA doeh. Bawipa e rungngangnae dawkvah, maimouh teh lunghawi awh sei, telah la a sak awh han.
At that time his people will say, “Look! This is our God; we have trusted in him and he has saved us! This is the Lord we have been looking for. Now we can be happy and celebrate the salvation he brings!”
10 Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA e a kut teh, hete mon dawk ao han. Cakong teh vaipuen tangdong dawk vitvit coungroe patetlah Moab ram teh Bawipa e khok rahim vah, vitvit coungroe lah ao han.
The Lord's hand of protection will be on this mountain. But the Moabites will be trampled underfoot like straw into the water of a manure pit.
11 Tui ka kale e ni tui kale hanelah a kut a dâw e patetlah, Bawipa ni hote ram lungui vah a kut dâw vaiteh, hot ram e kâoupnae teh a thaonae kut hoi rahim lah a pabo han.
They will reach out their hands to try and save themselves, like swimmers using their hands to swim, but their pride will be humbled however much they thrash about.
12 Bawipa ni nange rapan koehoi kacakpounge ramvengim hah raphoe vaiteh, talai totouh a pabo dawkvah, vaiphu dawk a rawp han.
Moab, he will demolish your fortress with the high walls, bringing it down to the ground, into the dust.
