< Isaiah 3 >
1 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Rasahu Bawipa Jehovah ni rawca hoi tui kabawpnae puenghoi, kabawpnae kaawm e pueng hah Jerusalem kho hoi Judah ram thung hoi a takhoe toe.
For lo! the lordli gouernour, the Lord of oostis, schal take awei fro Jerusalem and fro Juda a myyti man, and strong, and al the strengthe of breed, and al the strengthe of watir;
2 Athakaawme tami, taran ka tuk e tami, lawkcengkung, profet, khueyue, matawng,
a strong man, and a man a werriour, and a domesman, and a profete, and a false dyuynour in auteris, and an elde man,
3 tami 50 ka uk e, barilawa kaawm e tami, kâpokhai, kut taran kahawi, pahni taran kahawi e pueng a takhoe han.
a prince ouer fifti men, and a worschipful man in cheer, and a counselour, and a wijs man of principal crafti men, and a prudent man of mystik, ethir goostli, speche.
4 Hote ram dawk camonaw ni, bawi thaw tawk awh vaiteh, sanu ka net e camonaw ni a uk awh han.
And Y schal yyue children the princes of hem, and men of wymmens condiciouns schulen be lordis of hem.
5 Khocanaw teh buet touh hoi buet touh, imri hoi imri a kârektap awh han. Camo ni matawng, banglahai kaawm hoeh e ni, bari kaawm e hah a dudam awh han.
And the puple schal falle doun, a man to a man, ech man to his neiybore; a child schal make noyse ayens an eld man, and an vnnoble man ayens a noble man.
6 Tami ni a hmaunawngha hah a na pa im e man vaiteh, nang teh khohna na tawn rah, hi tho. Kaimouh na uk leih. Hete ka rawk e pueng hai na pathoup pouh leih ati awh toteh,
For a man schal take his brother, the meneal of his fadir, and schal seie, A clooth is to thee, be thou oure prince; forsothe this fallyng be vndur thin hond.
7 Ahni ni, kai ni ka pathoup thai mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai im vah, rawca hoi khohna awm hoeh. Khocanaw koe bawi na tawk sak awh hanh loe telah kamcengcairalah ati han.
And he schal answere in that dai, and seie, Y am no leche, and nether breed, nether cloth is in myn hous; nyle ye make me prince of the puple.
8 Jerusalem kho a tip toe. Judah ram a rawk toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimae lawk tho hoi tawksaknae teh, BAWIPA ngainae patetlah awm hoeh. A bawilennae mit hah a taran awh toe.
For whi Jerusalem felle doun, and Juda felle doun togidere; for the tunge of hem, and the fyndingis of hem weren ayens the Lord, for to terre to wraththe the iyen of his mageste.
9 Ahnimae minhmai teh, amamouh kapanuekkhaikung lah ao. Amamouh yonnae hrawk thai awh hoeh. Sodom khonaw patetlah hmantang vah, yonnae a sak awh. Ahnimae muitha dawk yawthoenae ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hawihoehnae heh a mamhmawk a kâpatho awh toe.
The knowyng of her cheer schal answere to hem; and thei prechiden her synne, as Sodom dide, and hidden not. Wo to the soule of hem, for whi yuels ben yoldun to hem.
10 Tami kalan teh yawhawinae ao telah ahnimouh koe dei pouh haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a tawk awh e paw hah a ca awh han.
Seie ye to the iust man, that it schal be to hym wel; for he schal ete the fruyt of hise fyndyngis.
11 Tami kahawihoeh teh yawthoenae ao. Hawihoehnae hoi a kâhmo han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a tawksak e yonnae hah ahni lathueng patho lah ao han.
Wo to the wickid man in to yuel; for whi the yeldyng of hise hondis schal be maad to hym.
12 Ka taminaw ni camonaw a rektap awh. Napuinaw hai a uk awh. Ka taminaw, nangmouh lam na ka patue e naw ni lam na phen sak awh toe. Na dawn awh e lamthung hai a raphoe awh toe.
The wrongful axeris of my puple robbiden it, and wymmen weren lordis therof. Mi puple, thei that seien thee blessid, disseyuen thee, and distrien the weie of thi steppis.
13 BAWIPA ni lawkcengnae hmuen koe amae hmuen a la teh, taminaw lawkceng hanlah a kangdue.
The Lord stondith for to deme, and `the Lord stondith for to deme puplis;
14 BAWIPA ni a taminaw thung dawk e, a kum kacuenaw hai thoseh, bawinaw hai thoseh, lawkceng hanelah lawkcengnae hmuen koe a kâen. Nangmouh ni, kaie takha na padoun awh toe. Karoedengnaw, e hnopai na lawp awh teh, namamouh im vah na pâkhueng awh toe.
the Lord schal come to doom, with the eldere men of his puple, and with hise princes; for ye han wastid my vyner, and the raueyn of a pore man is in youre hous.
15 Ka taminaw hah bangkongmaw na rektap awh vaw. Mathoenaw e minhmai hah bangkongmaw na phom awh vaw telah, ransahu Bawipa Jehovah ni a ti.
Whi al to-breken ye my puple, and grynden togidere the faces of pore men? seith the Lord God of oostis.
16 BAWIPA ni bout a dei e teh, Zion canunaw teh a kâoupnae a rasang awh. A lahuen a kamnue sak awh teh, a mit a kâhei sak awh teh, a khoksaluem koe dinghling lawk a tho teh, tektanek lah ceitakhai laihoi lam a cei awh dawkvah,
And the Lord God seide, For that that the douytris of Syon weren reisid, and yeden with a necke stretchid forth, and yeden bi signes of iyen, and flappiden with hondis, and yeden, and with her feet yeden in wel araied goyng,
17 BAWIPA ni Zion canunaw hah a lû moihna sak vaiteh, a khohna rading pouh vaiteh, caici lah yeirai kaposak han.
the Lord schal make ballyd the nol of the douytris of Sion, and the Lord schal make nakid the heer of hem.
18 Hote hnin navah, a kamthoupnae khok dinghling, tamlawk lupawk, dingyin,
In that dai the Lord schal take awei the ournement of schoon, and goldun litle bellis lijk the moone,
19 hnâpacap kanghoi e, laikaw, minhmai ramuk,

23 hlalang, athung angki, sammuem, hoi kamthoupnae hni naw hah ka takhoe han.
and myrouris, and smal lynun clothis aboute the schuldris, and kercheues, and roketis.
24 Hmuitui e yueng lah kapawk hmui, taisawm e yueng lah tangron, samvei e yueng lah lû luengpalueng, loukloukkaang e khohna yueng lah buri, meihawinae yueng lah sum pâan hoi nep e a hmâkathan lah ao han.
And stynk shal be for swete odour, and a corde for the girdil; ballidnesse schal be for crispe heer, and an heire for a brest girdil.
25 Na taminaw teh, tahloi hoi a rawp awh vaiteh, nange athakaawm taminaw teh taran tuknae koe a due awh han.
Also thi faireste men schulen falle bi swerd, and thi stronge men schulen falle in batel.
26 A longkhanaw ni cingou laihoi khuikap awh vaiteh, kingkadi lah talai dawk a tahung han.
And the yatis therof schulen weile, and morene; and it schal sitte desolat in erthe.
