Isaiah 29
1 Ho Ariel, Ariel, the city where David encamped! Add ye year to year. Let the feasts come round.
Nang, Ariel, Ariel, David ohhaih vangpui, khosak na bing! Saningto pacoeng saningto thap oh loe, buhraenghaih poih doeh saningto pacoeng saningto sah o nasoe.
2 Then I will distress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and lamentation, and she shall be to me as Ariel.
Toe Ariel vangpui to kam tangsak han; anih loe palungsethaih hoiah hang tih; Ariel vangpui loe ka hmaa ah angbawnhaih hmaicam baktiah om tih.
3 And I will encamp against thee round about, and will lay siege against thee with posted troops. And I will raise siege works against thee.
Nang to naeh hanah kang takui khoep han, misa abuephaih imsang hoi kang takui khoep moe, misa anghawkhaih long khaw doeh ka sak han.
4 And thou shall be brought down, and shall speak out of the ground. And thy speech shall be low out of the dust, and thy voice shall be as of he who has a familiar spirit, out of the ground. And thy speech shall whisper out of the dust.
Nang loe long ah pakhrah tathuk tih, to naah long thung hoiah lok na thui tih; na thuih ih lok loe maiphu thung hoi tetta ah tacawt tih; na thuih ih lok loe pakhra kawk thaih kami mah apaeh ih lok baktiah, long thung hoiah tacawt ueloe, maiphu thung hoiah lok amzaita ah thui tih.
5 But the multitude of thy foes shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones as chaff that passes away. Yea, it shall be in an instant suddenly.
Toe pop parai na misanawk loe kahoih parai maiphu baktiah om o tih, kami tahmenhaih tawn ai kaminawk loe anghaeh phang tavai baktiah om o tih; nawnetta thung to tiah om roep tih.
6 She shall be visited by Jehovah of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire.
Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw loe kho pazihhaih, talih hnawhhaih, kalen parai atuen, takhi sae hoi kangqong hmaipalai hoiah danpaek tih.
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that fight against her and her stronghold, and that distress her, shall be as a dream, a vision of the night.
Ariel vangpui tuh prae kaminawk boih, Ariel hoi kacak sipae tuh kaminawk, anih raihaih paek kaminawk loe khoving naah hnuk ih amang baktiah ni om o tih.
8 And it shall be as when a hungry man dreams, and, behold, he eats. But he awakes, and his soul is empty. Or as when a thirsty man dreams, and, behold, he drinks. But he awakes, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul has appetite. So shall the multitude of all the nations be that fight against mount Zion.
Zok amthlam kami loe amang ah buh a caak, toe angthawk tahang naah zok amthlam let baktih, tui anghae kami mah amang ah tui to naek, toe angthawk naah tui anghaeh let toengtoeng, tui anghae dip thai ai baktiah ni om tih; Zion mae tuh prae kaminawk boih doeh to tiah om o tih.
9 Tarry ye and wonder, take your pleasure and be blind. They are drunken, but not with wine. They stagger, but not with strong drink.
Anghngai oh loe, dawnrai oh; nihcae loe misurtui nae ai ah, mu paquih o; mu nae ai ah, ahnuk ahma amtimh o.
10 For Jehovah has poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes. The prophets, and your heads, the seers, he has covered.
Angraeng mah iih angmuethaih palung to paek pongah, mik na pasim o boeh; nangcae ih tahmaa, ukkungnawk hoi angzo han koi hmuen hnu thaih kaminawk to khuk khoep boeh.
11 And all vision has become to you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to a man who is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee. And he says, I cannot, for it is sealed.
Hae hnuksakhaih hmuennawk boih loe nangcae hanah catui daeng tangcae cabu thung ih loknawk baktiah oh; to cabu to ca amtuk kami khaeah paek moe, Tahmenhaih hoiah hae cabu hae kroek ah, tiah a naa. To naah anih mah, Catui daeng pongah, ka kroek thai ai, tiah thuih.
12 And the book is delivered to him who is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee. And he says, I am not learned.
To ca to ca amtuk ai kami khaeah na paek moe, Tahmenhaih hoi hae ca hae kroek ah, tiah na naa: to naah anih mah, Ca ka kroek thai ai, tiah thuih.
13 And the Lord said, Inasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and honor me with their lips, but have removed their heart far from me, but in vain they worship me, teaching the commandments and doctrines of men.
Angraeng mah, Hae kaminawk loe pakha hoiah ni kai khaeah angzoh o, pahni hoiah kai ang pakoeh o, toe palung loe kai khae hoiah angthla o; kaminawk mah patuk ih baktih toengah kai angzit o:
14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder. I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hidden.
to pongah, khenah, hae kaminawk khaeah dawnrai hmuen, poekraihaih hoi anghmang kathok hmuen to ka sak han; palungha kaminawk ih palunghahaih loe anghmaa tih; khopoek thaih kaminawk ih panoekhaih doeh anghma boih tih, tiah thuih.
15 Woe to those who hide deep their counsel from Jehovah, and whose works are in the dark, and who say, Who sees us? and, Who knows us?
Angraeng panoeksak han ai ah, kathuk poekhaih tawn kami, vinghaih thungah toksah kami, mi mah maw kaicae hae hnu thai tih? Mi mah maw kaicae hae panoek tih? tiah thui kaminawk loe khosak bing!
16 Ye turn things upside down! Shall the potter be esteemed as clay, that the thing made should say of him who made it, He did not make me, or the thing formed say of him who formed it, He has no understanding?
Nangcae mah hmuennawk buenglueng tamlet ah na paqoi o boih boeh, laom sahkung loe amlai long baktiah na poek o; a sak ih hmuen mah sahkung khaeah, kai loe anih mah ni sak, tiah thui tih maw? Laom mah laom sahkung khaeah, Anih loe tidoeh panoek ai, tiah thui tih maw?
17 Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest?
Lebanon loe atue setta thung long kahoih ah om tih, long kahoih ahmuen loe taw ah angcoeng mak ai maw?
18 And in that day the deaf shall hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out of darkness.
To na niah loe naa pang kami mah cabu thung ih lok to thaih ueloe, mikmaengnawk mah kamtueng ai, khoving ahmuen thung hoiah hnu o thai tih boeh.
19 The meek also shall increase their joy in Jehovah, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
Poeknaem kaminawk doeh Angraeng ah anghoehaih pung o tih; kaminawk thungah amtang kaminawk loe Ciimcai Israel pongah anghoe o tih.
20 For the terrible one is brought to nothing, and the scoffer ceases. And all those who watch for iniquity are cut off,
Zitthok kami loe anghmaa tih boeh; minawk pahnui thuih kami to om mak ai boeh, kami zaehaih khen thaih kaminawk,
21 who make a man an offender in his cause, and lay a snare for him who reproves in the gate, and turn aside the just with a thing of nothing.
lok maeto pazaehaih pongah tayacoi kami, anih aman hanah khongkha ah thaang patung kami, katoeng kami to toeng ai ah sah kaminawk to amro o boih tih boeh.
22 Therefore thus says Jehovah, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not now be ashamed, nor shall his face now grow pale.
To pongah Abraham akrangkung, Angraeng mah Jakob imthung takoh khaeah hae tiah thuih; Jakob loe azathaih tong mak ai, mikhmai doeh sae mak ai boeh.
23 But when he sees his children, the work of my hands, in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name. Yea, they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall stand in awe of the God of Israel.
To kaminawk mah, ka sak ih tok to hnuk o naah, ka hmin to ciimcai o sak tih, Jakob ih Ciimcai Sithaw to panoek o ueloe, Israel Sithaw zithaih to tawn o tih.
24 They also who err in spirit shall come to understanding, and those who murmur shall receive instruction.
Anghmang suthaih muithla tawn kaminawk mah panoekthaihaih to tawn o ueloe, lokaek koeh kaminawk mah doeh ka patuk ih lok to tahngai o tih boeh, tiah thuih.
