Khuinae 2
1 Bawipa ni Zion canu dawkvah, a lungkhueknae tâmai hoi muen a ramuk toe. Isarel miphun e a minhawinae teh kalvan hoi talai dawk a tâkhawng toe. Ama e a lungkhueknae hnin nah, amae khok toungnae hai a pahnim toe.
ALEPH. How has the Lord darkened in his wrath the daughter of Sion! he has cast down the glory of Israel from heaven to earth, and has not remembered his footstool.
2 Bawipa ni pahren laipalah Jakop onae hmuen pueng a raphoe pouh. Ama e a lungkhueknae hoi Judah canu e rapanimnaw hah talai totouh a sin teh, a uknaeram hoi a bawinaw hai he a raphoe pouh.
BETH. In the day of his wrath the Lord has overwhelmed [her] as in the sea, [and] not spared: he has brought down in his fury all the beautiful things of Jacob; he has brought down to the ground the strongholds of the daughter of Juda; he has profaned her kings and her princes.
3 A lungkhueknae hmai a kak teh, Isarel miphunnaw e ki pueng hah a tâtueng pouh. A taran hmalah aranglae a kut a la pouh. A tengpam e hmaipalai ka thaw e patetlah Jakop canaw teh a kamtawi toe.
GIMEL. He has broken in his fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he has turned back his right hand from the face of the enemy, and has kindled a flame in Jacob as a fire, and it has devoured all things round about.
4 Taran patetlah a kangdue teh aranglae kut hoi licung hah a sawn. Zion canu lukkareiim dawk, a meikahawi e naw pueng hah be a thei teh, hmai patetlah lungkhueknae a rabawksin.
DALETH. He has bent his bow as an opposing enemy: he has strengthened his right hand as an adversary, and has destroyed all the desirable things of my eyes in the tabernacle of the daughter of Sion: he has poured forth his anger as fire.
5 Bawipa ni a taran teh, Isarel miphun hai thoseh, imkahawinaw hai thoseh a payawp toe. Rapanimnaw hai he a raphoe toe. Judah canunaw e khuikanae hoi cingounae hoe a pung sak.
HE. The Lord is become as an enemy: he has overwhelmed Israel as in the sea, he has overwhelmed her palaces: he has destroyed her strongholds, and has multiplied the afflicted and humbled ones to the daughter of Juda.
6 Lukkareiim hah takha patetlah koung a raphoe pouh. A sungren sak e pawi hah a raphoe pouh. Zion khopui dawk pawi a sak e hoi Sabbath hnin hah Bawipa ni a pahnim sak. A lungkhuek lawi siangpahrang hoi vaihma hah a hnoun pouh.
VAU. And he has scattered his tabernacle as a vine, he has marred his feast: the Lord has forgotten the feast and the sabbath which he appointed in Sion, and in the fury of his wrath has vexed the king, and priest, and prince.
7 Bawipa ni amae thuengnae khoungroe hah a pahnawt toe. Ama e hmuen kathoung hah a panuet toe. Siangpahrang im kalupnae hah taran kut dawk a poe toe. Ahnimanaw teh pawitonae hnin patetlah Bawipa e im dawk a hramki awh.
ZAIN. The Lord has rejected his altar, he has cast off his sanctuary, he has broken by the hand of the enemy the wall of her palaces; they have uttered their voice in the house of the Lord as on a feast day.
8 BAWIPA ni Zion canu e rapan hah raphoe hane a noe e patetlah raphoe hanelah a kut hno hoeh. Bangnuenae rui a payang teh, athung lae rapan hoi alawilae rapan hah khuikanae lah reirei a coung sak.
HETH. And he has turned to destroy the wall of the daughter of Sion: he has stretched out the measuring line, he has not turned back his hand from afflicting [her]: therefore the bulwark mourned, and the wall was weakened with it.
9 A tungdumnae longkhanaw teh talai thung lah a bo toe. Longkha tarennae sumtaboungnaw teh, koung kâkhoe toe. Siangpahrang hoi bawinaw teh Jentelnaw rahak ao awh teh, kâlawk awm hoeh. Profetnaw hai Bawipa koehoi vision hmawt awh hoeh toe.
TETH. Her gates are sunk into the ground: he has destroyed and broken to pieces her bars, [and] her king and her prince amongst the Gentiles: there is no law, nay, her prophets have seen no vision from the Lord.
10 Zion canu e kacuenaw teh, vaiphu a lû dawk a kâphuen awh te, buri a kâkhu teh, tanglakacuem teh amamae a lû hah talai dawk a saling awh.
JOD. The elders of the daughter of Sion have sat upon the ground, they have kept silence: they have cast up dust upon their heads; they have girded themselves with sackcloths: they have brought down to the ground the chief virgins in Jerusalem.
11 Camoca hoi sanu ka net naw ni khopui thung lamnaw dawk sut a kamlei awh teh, ka miphun tanglanaw a rawk dawkvah, ka mitphi a bo teh, ka lungthin teh runae a kâhmo.
CHAPH. Mine eyes have failed with tears, my heart is troubled, my glory is cast down to the ground, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; while the infant and suckling swoon in the streets of the city.
12 Ahnimanaw teh, a hmâ ka cat e patetlah khopui thung lamnaw dawk sut a kamlei awh teh, a manunaw e lungtabue dawk amamae a hringnae hah a awi awh teh, a manunaw koe satun hoi misurtuinaw hah nâmaw ao telah a pacei awh.
LAMED. They said to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? while they fainted like wounded men in the streets of the city, while their souls were poured out into their mother's bosom.
13 Oe Jerusalem canu nang teh, kai ni bangtelamaw na bangnue han. Bangmaw na panue sak han. Bangtelamaw na o ka ti han. Oe Zion canu tanglakacuem, nang na lungroum thai nahanlah kai ni bangtelamaw lung na pahawi han. Nang e na rawknae teh tuipui patetlah a kaw dawkvah, apinimaw nang teh na dam sak thai han.
MEM. What shall I testify to you, or what shall I compare to you, O daughter of Jerusalem? who shall save and comfort you, O virgin daughter of Sion? for the cup of your destruction is enlarged: who shall heal you?
14 Nange profetnaw teh, dumyennae hoi payonnae vision hah nang hanelah a hmu awh teh, na onae dawk bout o sak hanelah, nange yonnae pâpho laipalah, huenghai onae pathunae hnonaw hoi nangmouh na dum awh teh, a pathang awh toe.
NUN. Your prophets have seen for you vanities and folly: and they have not discovered your iniquity, to turn back your captivity; but they have seen for you vain burdens, and worthless visions.
15 Lam dawk ka cet kaawmnaw pueng ni, kut na tabawng sin awh teh, na kayasak awh. A lû a kahek awh teh, talai van pueng dawk e kanawm poung e teh, hete khopui maw telah Jerusalem canu hah ati awh.
SAMECH. All that go by the way have clapped their hands at you; they have hissed and shaken their head at the daughter of Jerusalem. Is this the city, they say, the crown of joy of all the earth?
16 Na tarannaw pueng ni nang koe lah pahni a ang awh teh, a hâ cakkarue teh, maimanaw hah na payawp toe. Hete hnin teh maimouh ni ring e hnin doeh, maimouh ni hmu awh toe ati awh.
AIN. All your enemies have opened their mouth against you: they have hissed and gnashed their teeth, and said, We have swallowed her up: moreover this is the day which we looked for; we have found it, we have seen it.
17 BAWIPA ni a noe tangcoung e hno hah a sak toe. Ayan hoi ka ti han ati e a lawk hah a kuep sak toe. Pahrennae awm laipalah, a raphoe toe. Taran teh nang dawkvah, a lunghawi sak teh taran e a ki teh a ouphlawp toe.
PHE. The Lord has done that which he purposed; he has accomplished his word, [even] the things which he commanded from the ancient days: he has thrown down, and has not spared: and he has caused the enemy to rejoice over you, he has exalted the horn of him that afflicted you.
18 Ahnimouh teh a lungthin thung hoi Bawipa koe a hramki awh. Oe Zion canu e rapan, nange mitphi teh, palang tui ka lawng e patetlah karum khodai pout laipalah lawng naseh. Nama hai kâhat hanh. Na mit hai kâhat sak hanh.
TSADE. Their heart cried to the Lord, You walls of Sion, pour down tears like torrents day and night: give yourself no rest; let not the apple of your eyes cease.
19 Karumsaning hai thaw nateh, hram haw. Bawipa e a hmalah, na lungthin teh, tui patetlah rabawk haw. Lam tangkuem vah a vawn ka hlam niteh, sut ka yan e camonaw a lungngai kuep thai nahanelah, na kut hah ahnimouh koe lah dâw haw.
KOPH. Arise, rejoice in the night at the beginning of your watch: pour out your heart as water before the face of the Lord; lift up your hands to him for the life of your infants, who faint for hunger at the top of all the streets.
20 Oe BAWIPA, apimaw hettelah ka tet e hah, khen nateh pouk haw. Napuinaw ni ama ni a cun e camonaw hah a ca han namaw. Vaihmanaw hoi profetnaw teh BAWIPA e a thoungnae hmuen dawkvah, thei awh han na maw.
RHECHS. Behold, O Lord, and see for whom you has gathered thus. Shall the women eat the fruit of their womb? the cook has made a gathering: shall the infants sucking at the breasts be slain? will you kill the priest and prophet in the sanctuary of the Lord?
21 Camo hoi matawngnaw teh talai dawk a kamlei awh toe. Kaie tami, thoundoun tanglakacuemnaw hai tahloi hoi koung a kamlei toe. Na lungkhueknae hnin dawk ahnimouh teh pahren laipalah na thei teh koung na raphoe toe.
CHSEN. The child and old man have lain down in the street: my virgins and my young men are gone into captivity: you have slain [them] with the sword and with famine; in the day of your wrath you have mangled [them], you has not spared.
22 Pawi hnin dawk coun e patetlah tengpam pueng vah kai ni ka taki e hno hah na coun toe. BAWIPA lungkhueknae hnin dawk ka hlout ni teh kahring e tami ni buet touh hai awm hoeh. Ka kawkhik e camonaw patenghai ka tarannaw ni koung a raphoe toe.
THAU. He has called my sojourners round about to a solemn day, and there was not in the day of the wrath of the Lord any one that escaped or was left; whereas I have strengthened and multiplied all mine enemies.
