Zekhariah 9
1 BAWIPA e lawk teh Hadrak ram hoi Damaskas khopui dawk a pha. BAWIPA ni miphunnaw thoseh, Isarel miphunnaw thoseh, a khetyawt.
This is the burden of the word of the LORD against the land of Hadrach and Damascus its resting place— for the eyes of men and of all the tribes of Israel are upon the LORD —
2 Hote ram hoi kahnai e Hamath ram dawk thoseh, Taire kho teh a lungang awh dawkvah hote kho hoi Sidon kho dawk a pha.
and also against Hamath, which borders it, as well as Tyre and Sidon, though they are very shrewd.
3 Taire kho ni ama hanelah imrasang a sak teh ngun hah vaiphu patetlah thoseh, lam dawk e tangdong patetlah thoseh, a pâkhueng eiteh,
Tyre has built herself a fortress; she has heaped up silver like dust, and gold like the dirt of the streets.
4 BAWIPA ni ayâ kut dawk a hnawng teh a tha hah talî dawk a tâkhawng pouh awh dawkvah, khopui teh hmai hoi a kak han.
Behold, the Lord will impoverish her and cast her wealth into the sea, and she will be consumed by fire.
5 Hot patetnaw hah Askelon ni a hmu vaiteh a taki han. Gaza kho ni a hmu vaiteh a pâyaw han.
Ashkelon will see and fear; Gaza will writhe in agony, as will Ekron, for her hope will wither. There will cease to be a king in Gaza, and Ashkelon will be uninhabited.
6 Asdod khopui dawk tami alouknaw kho a sak han. Filistinnaw e kâoupnae haiyah ka raen pouh han.
A mixed race will occupy Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
7 A ca e thi hah apâhni dawk hoi thoseh, A kei e panuetkathonaw hai a hâ rahak hoi thoseh, ka rayu pouh han. Kacawie naw haiyah maimae BAWIPA hanelah acawi awh teh Judah ram dawk ukkung patetlah ao awh han. Ekron khocanaw hai Jubusitnaw patetlah ao awh han.
I will remove the blood from their mouths and the abominations from between their teeth. Then they too will become a remnant for our God; they will become like a clan in Judah, and Ekron will be like the Jebusites.
8 Bang patet e taran hai a kâen a tâco thai hoeh nahanlah im petkâkalup lah ramveng ka ta han. Karektapkungnaw ni ka taminaw hah bout rektap mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kama ni ka mit hoi khei ka hmu toe.
But I will camp around My house because of an army, because of those who march to and fro, and never again will an oppressor overrun My people, for now I keep watch with My own eyes.
9 Oe, Zion canu na lunghawi haw. Oe Jerusalem canu hram haw. Kalan lah lawk a ceng teh rungngangnae lah kaawm e nangmae Siangpahrang teh la van, laca van a kâcui teh lungdo lungnemnae lahoi na onae koe ka tho e hah khenhaw!
Rejoice greatly, O Daughter of Zion! Shout in triumph, O Daughter of Jerusalem! See, your King comes to you, righteous and victorious, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
10 Kai ni Ephraim ram dawk rangleng thoseh, Jerusalem khopui dawk marang thoseh, ka raphoe han. Tarantuknae licung hai ka raphoe han. Miphun alouknaw ni taran ka roum sak han telah, hote bawi ni ati han. Kâtawnnae hai tui avanglah hoi namran totouh thoseh, tuipui koehoi talai apout totouh a kangning han.
And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim and the horse from Jerusalem, and the bow of war will be broken. Then He will proclaim peace to the nations. His dominion will extend from sea to sea, and from the Euphrates to the ends of the earth.
11 Nange kong dawk teh, paung lah kaawm e nange taminaw hah, tui kaawm hoeh e tuido dawk hoi, nang hoi sak e lawkkam thipaling kecu dawk kai ni ka hlout sak han.
As for you, because of the blood of My covenant, I will release your prisoners from the waterless pit.
12 Paung lah kaawm ni teh ngaihawinae ka tawn e naw, rapanim thung lah ban awh. Kai ni let hni yawhawinae na poe awh han telah sahnin roeroe ka dei.
Return to your stronghold, O prisoners of hope; even today I declare that I will restore to you double.
13 Judah licung ka patung vaiteh, Ephraim e licung ka sawn vaiteh, Zion khocanaw hah Kriknaw koe lah hroecoe vaiteh, nang teh athakaawme tami e tahloi patetlah na o sak han.
For I will bend Judah as My bow and fit it with Ephraim. I will rouse your sons, O Zion, against the sons of Greece. I will make you like the sword of a mighty man.
14 BAWIPA teh ahnimae lathueng a kamnue teh pala teh sumpapalik e patetlah a thui han. Bawipa Jehovah ni mongka a ueng vaiteh akalae bongparui naw hoi a tho han.
Then the LORD will appear over them, and His arrow will go forth like lightning. The Lord GOD will sound the ram’s horn and advance in the whirlwinds of the south.
15 Ransahu BAWIPA ni ahnimouh teh a okhai dawk a tarannaw a tâ awh han. Deinae talungnaw a coungroe awh han. Misur kaparuinaw patetlah a hram awh han. Kawlung patetlah thoseh, thuengnae khoungroe takin patetlah thoseh, akawi awh han.
The LORD of Hosts will shield them. They will destroy and conquer with slingstones; they will drink and roar as with wine. And they will be filled like sprinkling bowls, drenched like the corners of the altar.
16 Hat hnin vah, ahnimae BAWIPA Cathut ni a taminaw teh tuhu patetlah a rungngang han. Ahnimouh teh a talai dawk kaawm e bawilukhung dawk ka-ang e ngun patetlah ao awh han.
On that day the LORD their God will save them as the flock of His people; for like jewels in a crown they will sparkle over His land.
17 Lungmanae teh a len toung loung. Bari law-a lah a onae hai a len toung loung. Cakang ni thoundounnaw thoseh, Misur tui a katha e ni hai tanglanaw thoseh, a roung sak han.
How lovely they will be, and how beautiful! Grain will make the young men flourish, and new wine, the young women.
