“Ipi lung genthei nan na ngao ham, thu'a nunglou kachate ho,” tin Pakai in aseije. “Keija toh akikalin thilgon nanei un ahi. Ka lhagao in adeilou hotoh kigop khomna nanei jun, hichun na chonset nao na sesang toupeh taovin ahi.
2 who set out to go down into Egypt without asking for my advice, to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to take refuge in the shadow of Egypt!
Ajehchu keima donglou vin, nache suh un Egypt panpina naga thum uve. Pharaoh huhbitna chu natahsan un ahi. Ama lima chun nakisel gu uvin ahi.
3 Therefore the strength of Pharaoh will be your shame, and the refuge in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
Ahin Pharaoh natahsan jeh uva suh molphou'a naumdiu, amachunga nakingap jeh uva jachatna a naum diu ahi.
4 For their princes are at Zoan, and their ambassadors have come to Hanes.
Ahin thaneina Zoan chan gei a keh beh in um jeng jongleh a noidou ho Hanes gei hung lhung ta jong leu,
5 They shall all be ashamed because of a people that cannot profit them, that are not a help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.”
ama tahsan jouse chun jumna amudiu ahi. Aman nakithopiu malah a na suhmol phoudiu ahi.”
6 The burden of the animals of the South. Through the land of trouble and anguish, of the lioness and the lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they carry their riches on the shoulders of young donkeys, and their treasures on the humps of camels, to an unprofitable people.
Negev a gancha ho chung changa thuhil kahenga hitin ahung lhunge; Kholjin hon tijat umtah in nelgam ahin jot nun, Egypt gei adin olin akitolui- ahaonao jouse sangan ho chunga ahin pouvin, agou luhou sangongsao chunga ahin pouve-Egypt ten aventup nadiuva abonna pehding atiu ahi. Gamthip gam ahin jot un, keipi bahkai achal le anu umna mun, gulse ho leh gunei gul ho umna mun ho ahin jotpao vin ahi. Hiche jouse hi ahin, Egypt in imacha nahin pehle lou ding ahi.
7 For Egypt helps in vain, and to no purpose; therefore I have called her Rahab who sits still.
Egypt kihahselna ho chu panna bei ahibouve! Hijeh chun, Rahab tin kakouve-setna neilou Dragon.
8 Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and inscribe it in a book, that it may be for the time to come forever and ever.
Tun chenlang hiche thucheng hohi sun lhan. Lekhabu a sun lut in. Phat kichai kah adinga hettoh sah a pang diu ahitai.
9 For it is a rebellious people, lying children, children who will not hear the LORD’s law;
Hichu, hiche mite hi milouchal midouhat ho ahiuvin, Pakai thuhil lunglutna ngaiding nomlou ahiu ve.
10 who tell the seers, “Do not see!” and the prophets, “Do not prophesy to us right things. Tell us pleasant things. Prophesy deceits.
Mitvah neiho jah'a hitin asei uve, “Themgao ho jah a, Thudih neiseipeh hih uvin. Ngainom um chacha neisei peh uvin. Jouthu leh semthu ho neisei peh un.
11 Get out of the way. Turn away from the path. Cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.”
Lung jin nahi sumil soh in. Nalampi jim akonin kichondoh in Israel Mitheng Pa chungthu neiseh peh u, ngadoh tan.”
12 Therefore the Holy One of Israel says, “Because you despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and rely on it,
Hiche hi Israel Mitheng Pan adonbutna ahi: “Kathu seipeh ho namusit jeh leh nabolgim ho, jou le nal natahsan joh jeh in,
13 therefore this iniquity shall be to you like a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking comes suddenly in an instant.
phulou helouva vangsetna nachunga hung chu ding ahi-bangho pohdoh a, khikeh a lhuh tobang ding ahi. Apet pet in hung chim lhan tin, bong hel hulin hung lha tan te.
14 He will break it as a potter’s vessel is broken, breaking it in pieces without sparing, so that there will not be found among the broken pieces a piece good enough to take fire from the hearth, or to dip up water out of the cistern.”
Bel keh banga naki suchip ding ahi-achip dan dan chu halneo khat a jong mei am kiloh theilou, tuikul a kon'a jong tui themkhat chabeh jong kithal thei lou ahi.
15 For thus said the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel, “You will be saved in returning and rest. Your strength will be in quietness and in confidence.” You refused,
Thaneipen Pakai, Israel Mitheng Pan, hitin aseije: “Ka henga hung kinung le hobou, keija kicholdo hobou huhdoh a na umdiu ahi. Lungneng sel leh tahsan nachu na thahat nao ahi. Ahin khatcha nachan lou diu ahi.
16 but you said, “No, for we will flee on horses;” therefore you will flee; and, “We will ride on the swift;” therefore those who pursue you will be swift.
Nangman naseiyin, ' Ahipoi Egypt akon panpina kamu diu ahin, galsat nadinga sakol hattah ho eipeh diu ahi,' nati ahin, gangtah leh hattah namu diu chu ahileh nagal mi teuvin hattah leh gangtah a nahin del diu chu ahi bouve!
17 One thousand will flee at the threat of one. At the threat of five, you will flee until you are left like a beacon on the top of a mountain, and like a banner on a hill.
Alah uva khatnin ahindel ding chu nangho sangkhat hiding ahi. Alah uva nga in nabonu va najamsah soh diu ahi. Thinglhang chunga ponlah khom khat bou kidalha banga na kidalha ding nahin, molvum'a ponlap kikhai pheleng leng toh nabah ding ahi.

Apan pina ngahjing ho chu a nunnom ahiuve.
18 Therefore the LORD will wait, that he may be gracious to you; and therefore he will be exalted, that he may have mercy on you, for the LORD is a God of justice. Blessed are all those who wait for him.
19 For the people will dwell in Zion at Jerusalem. You will weep no more. He will surely be gracious to you at the voice of your cry. When he hears you, he will answer you.
Aw Jerusalem'a cheng, Zion mite, nangho naka kit loudiu ahitai. Ahenga panpina nathum uleh Ama chu mi lungset them ahi. Na kanau awgin chu Aman adonbut teitei ding ahi.
20 Though the Lord may give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet your teachers will not be hidden any more, but your eyes will see your teachers;
Pakai in an adin vangsetna, chuleh don din thoh natna nahin pe jong lechun, nahil din nakom'a umjing nalai di ahi. Na hil'a chu namit tah'a namu ding ahi.
21 and when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way. Walk in it.”
Na nakol tah a najah ding ahi. Na nunglang tah a kon thu hung kisei ding,”Hiche lampi hi ahi nachena got chu,” Jetlang hihen, veilang hijong le.
22 You shall defile the overlaying of your engraved images of silver, and the plating of your molten images of gold. You shall cast them away as an unclean thing. You shall tell it, “Go away!”
Chuteng na dangka a kisem milim kihou, chule nagou lutah sana'a kisem lim hochu, na suhmang ding ahi. Ponse nen paimang banga na paimang ding, “Phasel to!” tia nasei khum ding ahi.
23 He will give the rain for your seed, with which you will sow the ground; and bread of the increase of the ground will be rich and plentiful. In that day, your livestock will feed in large pastures.
Chuteng Pakai in gojuh a phatthei naboh ding ahi, thil tuphat ahiteng. Kidang tah'a agaho naki khop khom ding, chuleh na ganchate nehding hamhing ninglhing setna umding ahi.
24 The oxen likewise and the young donkeys that till the ground will eat savory feed, which has been winnowed with the shovel and with the fork.
Loukhoi bongchal ho leh sangan hon anpha anehdiu, avai vang huijin alhoh mang ding ahi.
25 There will be brooks and streams of water on every lofty mountain and on every high hill in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
Hiche nikho teng leh na galmi hou akitha a, insang ho ahung lhuh teng, vadung tui ho mol le lhang jouse hung longlha ding ahi.
26 Moreover the light of the moon will be like the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD binds up the fracture of his people, and heals the wound they were struck with.
Lha chu nisa vah bangin vah intin, chuleh nisa vah chu jat sagi'a vah cheh ding ahi- nisagi sunga vah chu nikhat'a vah tobang ahi! Hitichu hiding ahi Pakai in amite sudam dinga akipatna, akisuh khah nao maha hou damna ahin peh teng.
27 Behold, the LORD’s name comes from far away, burning with his anger, and in thick rising smoke. His lips are full of indignation. His tongue is as a devouring fire.
Ven! Pakai chu mun gamlatah akonin ahunge, lungsa pum leh meikhu nasatah in atomkhum in ahi. Amuh hoa lunghan na adimmin; athuho, meiyin asuhmang toh abange.
28 His breath is as an overflowing stream that reaches even to the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of destruction. A bridle that leads to ruin will be in the jaws of the peoples.
Ahaina hu sat chu tuisoh'a galmi ho ngong chan aphah bangin akisunglha abange. Chitin namtin kiletsah ho chu suhmang dinga asepchil ding ahi. Nahkhao akhi peh'a, mangthai dinga ahoidoh ding ahi.
29 You will have a song, as in the night when a holy feast is kept, and gladness of heart, as when one goes with a flute to come to the LORD’s mountain, to Israel’s Rock.
Ahin Pathen miten golnop phatah kibolna'a la kisa ho banga kipa la asah diu ahi. Theile mutpan mun thenga Pathen houva cheho honkhat Jerusalem, Pakai lhangchung-Israel te Songpi'a apui banga, kipana' adimset dingu ahi.
30 The LORD will cause his glorious voice to be heard, and will show the descent of his arm, with the indignation of his anger and the flame of a devouring fire, with a blast, storm, and hailstones.
Chuleh Pakai in aloupina aw ajahsah ding ahi. Abanthahat thaneina avetsah ding ahi. Meikong in aval lhum bangin hung kum lhan tin, van gin holeh gelchang lentah tah hung lhabanga hung kum lhading ahi.
31 For through the LORD’s voice the Assyrian will be dismayed. He will strike him with his rod.
Pakai thupeh dungjui a Assyrian te ahal hal 'a kehdiu ahi. A leng tenggol'a ajeplhuh gamdiu ahi.
32 Every stroke of the rod of punishment, which the LORD will lay on him, will be with the sound of tambourines and harps. He will fight with them in battles, brandishing weapons.
Hitia Pakai in amol'a ajep uva, gotna apeh teng uleh, amiten selangdah atum uva, khong akhet uva golnop abol diu ahi. Abanthahat ahin doptouva, Assyria te ahin dou ding ahi.
33 For his burning place has long been ready. Yes, it is prepared for the king. He has made its pyre deep and large with fire and much wood. The LORD’s breath, like a stream of sulfur, kindles it.
Topheth-meikou na mun-Assyria lengpa dinga phatsotna gontohsa kikoi ahitai; akigo nading thingho sangtah in akiselom tai. Pakai haina hu chun, meikong hung kikhodoh banga ahin halkou ding ahi.
