1 Bout kamoung navah, kamleng e cakalawng hah ka hmu.
And I turned and lifted up my eyes. And I saw, and behold, a book flying.
2 Kalvantami ni nang bangmaw na hmu telah na pacei navah, kamleng e cakalawng ka hmu, asaw e dong 20, akaw e dong hra touh a pha ka ti pouh.
And he said to me, “What do you see?” And I said, “I see a book flying. Its length is twenty cubits, and its width is ten cubits.”
3 Kalvantami ni hai hote cakalawng teh ram pueng koung katin e thoebonae doeh ati. Ka parawt e naw pueng teh cakalawng e avanglah kaawm e patetlah koung raphoe lah ao han. Thoebo ka ngam e pueng teh hote cakalawng avanglah kaawm e patetlah koung raphoe lah ao han.
And he said to me, “This is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole earth. For every thief will be judged, just as it has been written there, and everyone who swears by this, will be judged in like manner.”
4 Ransahu BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, hote cakalawng hah kai ni ka rasa han. Tamru e imthung thoseh, ka min lahoi kahmanhoeh e thoebonae ka sak e imthung dawk thoseh, thingpheknaw, talungnaw, hoi cungtalah, hote imthungnaw dawk a pha han a ti.
I will bring it forth, says the Lord of hosts, and it will approach to the house of the thief, and to the house of him who swears falsely by my name, and it will remain in the midst of his house and will consume it, with its wood and its stones.
5 Kai hoi ka pato roi e kalvantami ni bout a tâco teh, atu ka tâcawt e hno hah khenhaw! telah na ti pouh.
And the angel had departed, who was speaking with me. And he said to me, “Lift up your eyes, and see what this is, that goes forth.”
6 Hot hah bang na maw telah kai ni ka pacei navah, hote teh ka tâcawt e takho doeh telah ati. Hottelah, ram pueng dawk, amamae a noenae doeh a ti.
And I said, “What, then, is it?” And he said, “This is a container going forth.” And he said, “This is their eye in all the earth.”
7 Kawnlawk manang hra touh a tawmtakhang teh, napui buet touh takho dawk a tahung e hah ka hmu.
And behold, a talent of lead was being carried; and behold, one woman sitting in the middle of the container.
8 Kalvantami nihaiyah hote napui teh yonnae doeh a titeh ahni hah takho thungvah a ta hnukkhu takho van vah kawnlawk hah a ta.
And he said, “This is impiety.” And he cast her into the middle of the container, and he sent the weight of lead into its mouth.
9 Bout ka khet nah, kahrawngum e âcawmpai e rathei patetlah kaawm e napui kahni touh teh, kahlî dawk a rathei hoi a tâco. Hote ephah hah talai hoi kalvan rahak a tawm awh.
And I lifted up my eyes and I saw. And behold, two women were departing, and a spirit was in their wings, and they had wings like the wings of a kite, and they lifted up the container between earth and heaven.
10 Hote ephah hah bangtelamaw a tawm awh telah kai hoi kâdei roi e kalvantami hah ka pacei.
And I said to the angel who was speaking with me, “Where are they taking the container?”
11 mShinar ram vah im sak pouh hanelah a tawm toe. Hote ram dawk a ma pâhung nahane tungkhung dawk a pâhung awh teh a ta awh han, telah a ti.
And he said to me, “To a house that may be built for it in the land of Shinar, and so that it may be established and set there upon its own base.”
