Joel 3
1 Hatnae tueng navah, yampa vah man lah kaawm e Judahnaw khocanaw hoi Jerusalem khocanaw bout ka thokhai toteh,
"For, look, in those days, and in that time, when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
2 miphun pueng ka pâkhueng vaiteh, Jehoshaphat yon koe ka kaw han. Ahnimouh ni ka ram heh a kârei awh teh, ram tangkuem dawk kâkayei e kaie râw tami Isarelnaw koe lah, ka kampangkhai vaiteh lawk ka ceng han.
I will gather all nations, and will bring them down into the Valley of Jehoshaphat; and I will execute judgment on them there for my people, and for my heritage, Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations. They have divided my land,
3 Ka taminaw hah cungpam lah a rayu awh toe. Tongpa camonaw hah a tak kâyawtnaw hoi thoseh napui camonaw hah a nei awh hane misurtui hoi thoseh, athung awh toe.
and have cast lots for my people, and have given a boy for a prostitute, and sold a girl for wine, that they may drink.
4 Oe, Taire kho, Sidon kho, Filistin ram hoi kâhnai e ramnaw, kai hah na taran awh han namaw. Kai na taran awh pawiteh, hote taran hah nangmouh koe bout ka pha sak han.
"Yes, and what are you to me, Tyre, and Sidon, and all the regions of Philistia? Will you repay me? And if you repay me, I will swiftly and speedily return your repayment on your own head.
5 Nangmouh ni kaie sui ngun hah na la teh, ka ngai kawi e hnonaw hah namamae bawkim dawk na hruek awh dawk thoseh,
Because you have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried my finest treasures into your temples,
6 Judahnaw, Jerusalem khocanaw hah amamae kho thung hoi kho hlanae koe a kampuen awh nahanlah Jentelnaw koe na yo awh dawk thoseh,
and have sold the people of Judah and the people of Jerusalem to the people of the Greeks, that you may remove them far from their border.
7 nangmouh ni na yonae hmuen koehoi ka kangdue vaiteh ahnimouh koe na sak awh e naw hah nangmae lû dawk ka pha sak han.
Look, I will stir them up out of the place where you have sold them, and will return your repayment on your own head;
8 Nangmae canu capanaw hai Judahnaw koe ka yo vaiteh ahnimouh ni kho hlanae koe, Sheba ram lah na yo awh han. Hottelah BAWIPA ni a dei toe.
and I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hands of the people of Judah, and they will sell them to the men of Sheba, to a faraway nation, for YHWH has spoken it."
9 Hete hno heh alouke miphunnaw koe pathang loe. Taran tuk hanelah kârakueng awh nateh athakaawme taminaw hah pâhlaw awh leih. Ransanaw abuemlah pâkhueng nateh tho awh naseh.
Proclaim this among the nations: "Prepare for war. Stir up the mighty men. Let all the warriors draw near. Let them come up.
10 Thenaw hah tahloi lah, tangkounnaw hah tahroe lah, dei awh. Tha kayoun e tami ni a thakasai poung e lah kâdei naseh.
Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears. Let the weak say, 'I am strong.'
11 Tengpam kaawm e miphunnaw pueng kamkhueng awh nateh tho awh haw. Kâpâkhueng awh haw. Kamkhuengnae hmuen koe nangmae athakaawme taminaw hah BAWIPA ni rahimlah a pabo han.
Hurry and come, all you surrounding nations, and gather yourselves together." Cause your mighty ones to come down there, YHWH.
12 Alouke miphunnaw, Jehoshaphat yawn koe tho awh naseh. Tengpam kaawm e miphunnaw pueng lawkceng hanelah hote hmuen koe kai ka tahung han.
"Let the nations arouse themselves, and come up to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; for there will I sit to judge all the surrounding nations.
13 Cang a hmin toung dawkvah, a nahanelah tangkoun lat leih. Misur katinnae a kawi teh, Maroi dawk misurtui a poum toung dawkvah, tho nateh kum awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimae yonnae teh a len poung toe.
Put in the sickle; for the harvest is ripe. Come, tread, for the winepress is full, the vats overflow, for their wickedness is great."
14 Lawkcengnae ayawn dawk taminaw teh a kamkhueng awh. Lawkcengnae ayawn dawk BAWIPA e hnin teh a hnai toe.
Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision. For the day of YHWH is near, in the valley of decision.
15 Kanî hoi thapa a hmo han. Âsinaw hai ang laipalah ao awh han.
The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.
16 BAWIPA ni Zion mon dawk hoi a huk toteh Jerusalem khothung hoi lawk a pathang toteh kalvan hoi talai ni a pâyaw han. Hatei BAWIPA teh a taminaw e kâuepnae, Isarelnaw hanlah thaonae lah ao han.
YHWH will roar from Zion, and thunder from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth will shake; but YHWH will be a refuge to his people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel.
17 Kathounge Zion mon dawk kaawm e ka tamikathoungnaw e BAWIPA lah ka o e a panue awh han. Jerusalem khopui hai a thoung han. Hote khopui teh Jentelnaw ni bout coungroe awh mahoeh.
"So you will know that I am YHWH your God, who dwells in Zion, my holy mountain. Then Jerusalem will be holy, and no strangers will pass through her any more.
18 Hote atueng navah ka radip poung e misurtui mon dawk hoi a yu han. Monrui dawk hoi sanutui a tâco han. Judah tuipui pueng tui a lawng han. BAWIPA e Imthungkhu dawk hoi tuihnu a phuek vaiteh Shittim yawn a duk sak han.
It will happen in that day, that the mountains will drop down sweet wine, the hills will flow with milk, all the brooks of Judah will flow with waters, and a fountain will come forth from the house of YHWH, and will water the Valley of Shittim.
19 Judah ram dawk, yon ka tawn hoeh e taminaw hah a thei awh teh, Judahnaw hah a rektap awh dawkvah, Izip ram teh tami kingkadi lah ao han. Edom ram haiyah kahrawng patetlah kingdi han.
Egypt will be a desolation, and Edom will be a desolate wilderness, for the violence done to the people of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
20 Judah ram teh yungyoe e ram, Jerusalem khopui teh a yungyoe kangning e khopui lah ao han.
But Judah will be inhabited forever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
21 BAWIPA teh Zion mon dawk ao dawkvah, hote khocanaw a thei awh dawkvah ka khang sak hoeh rae Judahnaw e thiphu hah bout ka pathung han.
And I will pardon their bloodguilt, which I have not pardoned, for YHWH dwells in Zion."
