Zekhariah 10

1 A hnukkhu e khorak tue navah, khorak nahanlah BAWIPA koe ratoum awh. Keitat sak e BAWIPA ni khorak sak vaiteh, tami pueng hanlah law dawk caticamu a pâw sak han.

Ask ye of Jehovah rain in the time of the latter rain, [even of] Jehovah that maketh lightnings; and he will give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field.

2 Terah e meikaphawknaw ni teh ahrawnghrang doeh a dei awh. Profet ka tawk e taminaw ni vision kaphawk a hmu awh teh, laithoe e mang a dei awh. Ayawmyin lah lung a kâpahawi awh. Hatdawkvah, tuhunaw patetlah a kâva teh, tu khoumkung ao hoeh dawkvah tunaw a roedeng awh.

For the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie; and they have told false dreams, they comfort in vain: therefore they go their way like sheep, they are afflicted, because there is no shepherd.

3 Tukhoumnaw ka lungkhuek sin teh, hmaetannaw lawk ka ceng vaiteh ransahu BAWIPA ni amae tuhu Judah miphun a khetyawt vaiteh bawirengnae ka coe e taran ka tuk e marang patetlah kangcoung sak han.

Mine anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the he-goats; for Jehovah of hosts hath visited his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them as his goodly horse in the battle.

4 Hote miphun dawk hoi takin lung, cingco, taran tuknae licung, bawinaw pueng ni a tâco awh han.

From him shall come forth the corner-stone, from him the nail, from him the battle bow, from him every ruler together.

5 Ahnimouh teh taran a tuk awh navah, lamthung dawk e tangdong ka coungroe e athakaawme taminaw patetlah ao han. BAWIPA e lungmanae a coe awh dawkvah, taran a tuk awh vaiteh, marangransanaw yeirai a po sak han.

And they shall be as mighty men, treading down [their enemies] in the mire of the streets in the battle; and they shall fight, because Jehovah is with them; and the riders on horses shall be confounded.

6 Judah miphun haiyah ka caksak han. Joseph miphun haiyah kahlout sak han. Ahnimanaw ka pahren dawkvah hmuen ka poe han. Ahnimouh teh pâlei boihoeh e patetlah ao awh han. Kai teh ahnimae Jehovah Cathut lah ka o teh ahnimae lawk ka thai han.

And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them back; for I have mercy upon them; and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am Jehovah their God, and I will hear them.

7 Ephraim miphunnaw teh athakaawme tami patetlah a tha ao awh han. Misur tui khak ka boum e patetlah a lunghawi awh han. A catounnaw ni hmawt awh vaiteh a lunghawi awh han, BAWIPA kâuep hoi a lunghawi awh han.

And [they of] Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as through wine; yea, their children shall see it, and rejoice; their heart shall be glad in Jehovah.

8 Ahnimouh ka hroecoe vaiteh, ka kamkhueng sak han. Ahnimouh ni kaie ratangnae hah a hmu awh vaiteh, hmaloe e patetlah bout a pungdaw awh han.

I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them; and they shall increase as they have increased.

9 Ahnimouh teh Jentelnaw koe cati patue e patetlah ka patue han. Kho hla ram dawk hoi kai na doun awh vaiteh ca catounnaw hoi cungtalah a hring lahoi bout a ban awh han.

And I will sow them among the peoples; and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children, and shall return.

10 Ahnimouh teh Izip ram hoi bout ka hrawi awh han. Assiria hai kakaw vaiteh ka pâkhueng han. Gilead ram hoi Lebanon ram lah bout ka hrawi vaiteh ahnimouh ao nahan e talai ni cawng mahoeh.

I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; and [place] shall not be found for them.

11 Tuipui lungui a cei teh, a rektap awh vaiteh, tuicapanaw a hem awh han. Kadung poung e tuipui kaawm e naw pueng rem a hak han. Assiria naw e lunglennae a pâpho pouh vaiteh Izip bawi e kâtawnnae hai a kahma han.

And he will pass through the sea of affliction, and will smite the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile shall dry up; and the pride of Assyria shall be brought down, and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart.

12 Ahnimouh teh BAWIPA pawlawk hoi ka caksak han. A min kâuep laihoi a kâhei vaiteh a cei awh han telah BAWIPA ni a ti.

And I will strengthen them in Jehovah; and they shall walk up and down in his name, saith Jehovah.
