Of Moab. Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Woe to Nebo! For it is laid waste. Kiriathaim is disappointed. It is taken. Misgab is put to shame and broken down.
2 Moab min kamthangnae a kahma han. Heshbon a rawk nahan kâcai laihoi tho awh, miphun a coungnae dawk hoi tâkhawng awh sei, telah ati awh. Oe Madmen, nang hai tâtueng e lah na o vaiteh tahloi hoi pâlei e lah na o han.
The praise of Moab is no more. In Heshbon they have devised evil against her: ‘Come! Let’s cut her off from being a nation.’ You also, Madmen, will be brought to silence. The sword will pursue you.
3 Horonaim hoi hramnae kamthang rektapnae hoi rawkphainae kamthang hah!
The sound of a cry from Horonaim, desolation and great destruction!
4 Moab teh a kahma toe, a canunaw khuika lawk thai lah ao toe.
Moab is destroyed. Her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.

For they will go up by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping. For at the descent of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.
6 Yawng awh na hringnae rungngang hanlah kahrawng e la patetlah yawng awh.
Flee! Save your lives! Be like the juniper bush in the wilderness.
7 Thaw na tawknae kutnaw hoi na hnopainaw na kâuepkhai dawkvah nang hai man e lah na o han, Khemosh teh a vaihma hoi kahrawikungnaw hoi san lah man e lah ao han.
For, because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures, you also will be taken. Chemosh will go out into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
8 Kho tangkuem dawk karaphoekung a tho vaiteh kho buet touh boehai hlout mahoeh. Tanghling dawk e ramnaw hai he a pâmit han. BAWIPA ni a dei tangcoung e patetlah a yawn hai raphoe lah ao han.
The destroyer will come on every city, and no city will escape; the valley also will perish, and the plain will be destroyed, as Yahweh has spoken.
9 A kamleng thai nahanlah Moab teh rathei poe awh, bangkongtetpawiteh, a khonaw teh kho ka sak e tami awm laipalah kingdi awh han.
Give wings to Moab, that she may fly and get herself away: and her cities will become a desolation, without anyone to dwell in them.
10 Pamda laihoi BAWIPA thaw ka tawk e teh thoebo lah awm seh, thipaling lawng hanlah a tahloi ka hno hoeh e tami teh thoebo lah awm seh.
“Cursed is he who does the work of Yahweh negligently; and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.

“Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his dregs, and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither has he gone into captivity; therefore his taste remains in him, and his scent is not changed.
12 Hatdawkvah, thaihaw! atueng a pha tawmlei toe, ahnimouh rawbawk hanlah tami katha vaiteh, ahnimouh ni na rabawk awh han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei. Ahnie hlaam teh a poum sak vaiteh, rakkâbawng han.
Therefore behold, the days come,” says Yahweh, “that I will send to him those who pour off, and they will pour him off; and they will empty his vessels, and break their containers in pieces.
13 Isarel imthung ni a kâuep poung awh e Bethel a kayakhai awh e patetlah Moab ni Khemosh a kayakhai han toe.
Moab will be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel, their confidence.
14 Taran tuk hanlah athakaawme taminaw, tarankahawi e taminaw telah bangtelamaw na ti thai.
“How do you say, ‘We are mighty men, and valiant men for the war’?
15 Moab teh a rawk toe, a khopui teh hmaikhu lah a coung toe. A nawsainaw pueng he a rawp awh han, telah siangpahrang a min ransahu BAWIPA ni ati.
Moab is laid waste, and they have gone up into his cities, and his chosen young men have gone down to the slaughter,” says the King, whose name is Yahweh of Armies.
16 Moab rawkphainae teh a hnai toe, a rucatnae teh karanglah a tho han.
“The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hurries fast.
17 Nangmouh a tengpam e naw ni ahni ka khai laihoi, a min kapanueknaw ni hai, kalenpounge hoi thakasai poung e sonron teh a kâkhoe toe telah dei awh.
All you who are around him, bemoan him; and all you who know his name, say, ‘How the strong staff is broken, the beautiful rod!’

“You daughter who dwells in Dibon, come down from your glory, and sit in thirst; for the destroyer of Moab has come up against you. He has destroyed your strongholds.
19 Oe Aroer dawk kho ka sak e canu, lam teng kangdout nateh khenhaw! ka yawng e tongpa hoi ka kâhrawk e napui hah pacei nateh, bangtelamaw telah tet haw.
Inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way and watch. Ask him who flees, and her who escapes; say, ‘What has been done?’

Moab is disappointed; for it is broken down. Wail and cry! Tell it by the Arnon, that Moab is laid waste.

Judgment has come on the plain country— on Holon, on Jahzah, on Mephaath,
22 Dibon hoi Nebo hoi Bethdiblathaim,
on Dibon, on Nebo, on Beth Diblathaim,
23 Kiriathaim hoi Bethgarmul hoi Bethmeon,
on Kiriathaim, on Beth Gamul, on Beth Meon,
24 Kirioth hoi Bozrah hoi Moab ram e khonaw pueng ahlanae koe e hoi a hnainae koe e naw pueng hai,
on Kerioth, on Bozrah, and on all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
25 Moab e ki teh tâtueng e lah ao teh, a loung hai khoe pouh e lah ao, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken,” says Yahweh.
26 BAWIPA e lathueng a kârasang dawkvah ama hah parui sak awh, Moab teh amae palo dawk a kâkaawk vaiteh panuikhai e lah ao han.
“Make him drunk, for he magnified himself against Yahweh. Moab will wallow in his vomit, and he also will be in derision.
27 Isarel nang hai panuikhai e lah ao nahoehmaw. Tamru hoi a kambawng boimaw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnie kong na dei karoitawi na lû na saling.
For wasn’t Israel a derision to you? Was he found among thieves? For as often as you speak of him, you shake your head.
28 Moab dawk kho ka sak e naw khopui hah yawng takhai awh nateh, lungha rahak vah awm awh. Bakhu ni talung kâko dawk tabu a tuk e patetlah awm awh.
You inhabitants of Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock. Be like the dove that makes her nest over the mouth of the abyss.
29 Moab a kâoupnae ka thai, a kâoup tangak doeh. A kârasangnae a kâpholennae hoi a lungpatanae hoi a lungkârasangnae naw hah.
“We have heard of the pride of Moab. He is very proud in his loftiness, his pride, his arrogance, and the arrogance of his heart.
30 A lungkhueknae teh banglahai awm hoeh tie hah ka panue teh a kâoupnae ni banghai thokhai hoeh, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
I know his wrath,” says Yahweh, “that it is nothing; his boastings have done nothing.
31 Moab e lathueng kâhram han, Moab hanlah ka ka han. Kirhareseth taminaw hai a ka awh han.
Therefore I will wail for Moab. Yes, I will cry out for all Moab. They will mourn for the men of Kir Heres.
32 Jazer khuikanae hlak ka patawn lah ka ka awh han. Oe Sibam misurkung, na dawn hah tui totouh a yam teh Jazer talî totouh a pha. Na paw hoi misurpaw ka raphoekung ni he a raphoe han.
With more than the weeping of Jazer I will weep for you, vine of Sibmah. Your branches passed over the sea. They reached even to the sea of Jazer. The destroyer has fallen on your summer fruits and on your vintage.
33 Lunghawinae hoi nawmnae a kahma toe. A paw e hmuen hoi Moab ram thung hoi misur katinnae dawk ka misur a baw toe. Apihai nawmnae hoi na katin awh mahoeh toe. Hramnae pawlawk hai lunghawinae pawlawk mahoeh toe.
Gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field and from the land of Moab. I have caused wine to cease from the wine presses. No one will tread with shouting. The shouting will be no shouting.
34 Heshbon hoi Elealeh dawk a hram awh, Jahaz totouh ka lawk a kampaw. Zoar hoi Horonaim totouh, Eglathshelishiyah totouh, Nimrim tui hai kingdi han.
From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealeh, even to Jahaz they have uttered their voice, from Zoar even to Horonaim, to Eglath Shelishiyah; for the waters of Nimrim will also become desolate.
35 Hothloilah, Moab hmuenrasang dawk thuengnae hoi a cathut hanlah hmuitui ka sawi e hah ka pout sak han, telah a BAWIPA ni a dei.
Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab,” says Yahweh, “him who offers in the high place, and him who burns incense to his gods.
36 Hat toteh, tamawi patetlah ka lungthin Moab hanlah ao teh, Kirhareseth taminaw hanlah takhawng e pawlawk patetlah ka lungthin hah a cai. Hatdawkvah, karoumcalah ouk a hmu awh e hnonaw teh awm hoeh toe.
Therefore my heart sounds for Moab like flutes, and my heart sounds like flutes for the men of Kir Heres. Therefore the abundance that he has gotten has perished.
37 Lûnaw pueng luengpalueng lah ao teh, pâkha muennaw pueng ngaw e lah ao. Kutnaw pueng a e lah ao teh, keng dawk buri kapawn ao.
For every head is bald, and every beard clipped. There are cuttings on all the hands, and sackcloth on the waist.
38 Moab imthungnaw dawk lamthungnaw hoi kho takinnaw dawk khuikanae ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Moab teh aphu kaawm hoeh e hlaam patetlah a kâbawng toe, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
On all the housetops of Moab, and in its streets, there is lamentation everywhere; for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which no one delights,” says Yahweh.
39 Nâtotouh maw a rawk toung, nâtotouh maw a hram awh toung. Moab teh yeiraipo laihoi a kamlang botoung. Hatdawkvah, Moab teh a tengpam e taminaw hanlah panuikhai e hoi takikatho e lah a coung.
“How it is broken down! How they wail! How Moab has turned the back with shame! So will Moab become a derision and a terror to all who are around him.”
40 Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! Mataw patetlah kamleng vaiteh, Moab lathueng a rathei a kadai han.
For Yahweh says: “Behold, he will fly as an eagle, and will spread out his wings against Moab.
41 Kirioth teh la e lah ao vaiteh, a rapanimnaw vaitalahoi he a raphoe. Hatnae hnin dawk Moab tami athakaawmnaw teh camo ka khe tawmlei e napui ka pataw e lungthin patetlah ao han.
Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are seized. The heart of the mighty men of Moab at that day will be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
42 Moab a kahma vaiteh, miphun kuep mahoeh toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA lathueng a kâoup.
Moab will be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against Yahweh.
43 Takitho e tangkom hoi karapnaw, Oe Moab dawk kaawm e naw nangmae lathueng a pha, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
Terror, the pit, and the snare are on you, inhabitant of Moab,” says Yahweh.
44 Takinae ka yawng takhai e tami teh tangkom dawk a bo han, tangkom dawk hoi ka tâcawt e tami teh karap dawk a kâman han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, reknae kum hah Moab e lathueng, Moab e lathueng roeroe vah ka pha sak han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
“He who flees from the terror will fall into the pit; and he who gets up out of the pit will be taken in the snare, for I will bring on him, even on Moab, the year of their visitation,” says Yahweh.
45 Heshbon tâhlip dawk ka yawng e naw thabaw laihoi a kangdue awh han. Hahoi Heshbon koehoi hmai a tho vaiteh, Sibon taminaw e lathueng a kaman han Kâoupnaw e Moab kho a deng totouh he a kak han.
“Those who fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon; for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, and a flame from the middle of Sihon, and has devoured the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
46 Yawthoe e lah na o Oe Moab, Khemosh taminaw a thayoun awh, na capanaw san lah ceikhai teh na canunaw santoung awh han.
Woe to you, O Moab! The people of Chemosh are undone; for your sons are taken away captive, and your daughters into captivity.
47 Hatei, a to hmalah, Moab santoungnae teh ka thung han telah, BAWIPA ni a dei. Moab lawkcengnae teh het totouh doeh.
“Yet I will reverse the captivity of Moab in the latter days,” says Yahweh. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
