1 I will take my position and be on watch, placing myself on my tower, looking out to see what he will say to me, and what answer he will give to my protest.
Kagalvenna muna chun kaldoh ingting chuleh ka pansatna muna chun ding ing’e. Chu che muna kona chu Pakaiyin kajaha ipi aseiding ve’ing ting chuleh keima kiphinna iti eidonbut nem ti ngah-inge.
2 And the Lord gave me an answer, and said, Put the vision in writing and make it clear on stones, so that the reader may go quickly.
Chutah in Pakaiyin kajah a, “Ka donbutna hi songpheng ho chunga jihdoh in, hiti henlang hileh, alhaile pa chun midang ho koma thu phatea agalhut thei ding ahi.
3 For the vision is still for the fixed time, and it is moving quickly to the end, and it will not be false: even if it is slow in coming, go on waiting for it; because it will certainly come, it will not be kept back.
Hiche ahung lhung ding kimu hi khonung’a ding ahi. Hiche hin achaina ding ahilchenin, chule hiche hin gu ilhungtei ding ahi. Ahung vaigeija ahijong leh, ngah hat in, ajeh chu kho ngaisot lou ding, hung lhung tei ding ahi.
4 As for the man of pride, my soul has no pleasure in him; but the upright man will have life through his good faith.
Mi kilesah chu vetem in! Amaho tah akisong uvin, chuleh ahinkho mandan’u chu akon chetchut nin ahi. Hinlah midih chu Pathena dinga tahsan aum nauva hing ding ahiuve.
5 A curse on the cruel and false one! the man full of pride, who never has enough; who makes his desires wide as the underworld! he is like death; he is never full, but he makes all nations come to him, getting all peoples together to himself. (Sheol h7585)
Nei le nga hao mana lungngahna thei ahidehpoi, chuleh mihoitho hon kicholdona anei hih uve. Amahon lhan tobang'in akamu chu ahonglenun, chuleh thina kisei tobang'in aphatai atipouve. Akiloset manuvin amahon namtina mi akhom khomuvin, chuleh mitampi chu aval lhum tauve. (Sheol h7585)
6 Will not all these take up a word of shame against him and a bitter saying against him, and say, A curse on him who goes on taking what is not his and is weighted down with the property of debtors!
Hinla asoh chan loi jengu hin amaho ajumso ding’u ahi. Amaho chun dai thanopna anei uva, Migucha nangho itobang lunghemna in nahinphah diu hitam? Tua hi nachan ding dol’u na kimu ding’u ahi! Alamlouva na hung hao dohu ahin, hinlah itih chanpi hi hitia na masot nahlai dingu ham?
7 Will not your creditors suddenly be moved against you, and your troublers get up from their sleep, and you will be to them like goods taken in war?
Phulou helouva na leibatna houvin nachunguva thutanna nanei khum ding’u ahi. Na chunguva hungkiheijuva kicha le tija'a nadinpet’uva nanei jouseu nalahpeh dingu ahi.
8 Because you have taken their goods from great nations, all the rest of the peoples will take your goods from you; because of men's blood and violent acts against the land and the town and all who are living in it.
Ajeh chu nanghon namtin vaipi nei jouse nachom jeng’u ahin, tua hi ason achilhah ho jouseu chun nangho nei achom dingu ahi. Nanghon thinglhang gam pumpia tolthana naboluvin chuleh khopi ho chu alamlouva gimbolna in na lodimsah tauve.
9 A curse on him who gets evil profits for his family, so that he may put his resting-place on high and be safe from the hand of the wrongdoer!
Alamlouva phatchomna naholnauva konna in lentah tah nasahu hin itobang lunggim nan nahin lhunkhum ding’u hitam! Nagou haonauvin huhbit nachoh pehthei dingin na tahsan’un, hahsatna in aphah joulouna ding muna na insung mi busatsah a nahiuve.
10 You have been a cause of shame to your house by cutting off a number of peoples, and sinning against your soul.
Hinlah tolthana nabol jeh a hi, namin na jachat sah a chuleh nahinkhou nachan lo-u ahitai.
11 For the stone will give a cry out of the wall, and it will be answered by the board out of the woodwork.
Banga song hohin nangho douna a kholhang ahinsap doh ding, chule inchunga inkam kilhunna inching noilama kidap hon jong noplouna ahin phondoh ding ahi.
12 A curse on him who is building a place with blood, and basing a town on evil-doing!
Tolthana le a lamlouva sumtong mu’a konna khopi sadoh ho itobang lunghem nan na hinphah diu hitam!
13 See, is it not the pleasure of the Lord of armies that the peoples are working for the fire and using themselves up for nothing?
Van Sepai ho Pakai chun namtin vaipi ahaonau hi vutvai kisopeh ding ahi tia ana thutepsa hilou ham? Na tampi atohdohu jong aboncha pannabei ahi.
14 For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the sea is covered by the waters.
Tihon twikhanglen in achup bangin, leiset hi Pakai loupina hetna in alodim ding ahi.
15 A curse on him who gives his neighbour the wine of his wrath, making him overcome with strong drink from the cup of his passion, so that you may be a witness of their shame!
Naheng nakom kham ngolsah a nangma itobang lungkhamnan nahinphah ding hitam! Nakhon chu achunguva na ngamin, amaho chu adasa sauvin a jachatpiu sagohkeu ahinau chu deitah a navet theina dingin nabollin ahi.
16 You are full of shame in place of glory: take your part in the drinking, and let your shame be uncovered: the cup of the Lord's right hand will come round to you and your glory will be covered with shame.
Hinla kintaha na chunga minset sahna hung lhung ding ahi. Hungin, donin chuleh muthei din kilangdohin. Pakai thutanna khon’a kon chun hung donin, chule na loupinau jouse chu jachatna hin sodoh hen.
17 For the violent acts against Lebanon will come on you, and the destruction of the cattle will be a cause of fear to you, because of men's blood and the violent acts against the land and the town and all who are living in it.
Nanghon Lebanon gammang ho chu na satchaijui. Tua hi nangho kisatlha ding nahiuve. Nanghon gamsa ho chu na sumang hel’ui, hijeha hi amaho kicha a na um’u ahitai. Agamsung pumpia toltha naboluvin, chule khopi ho jong chu nosopa kibolna nadip dimu ahitai.
18 What profit is the pictured image to its maker? and as for the metal image, the false teacher, why does its maker put his faith in it, making false gods without a voice?
Mihem khutnin asem milim chu ipi phatchomna uma ahilouleh nalhemlhauva pang milim kilhajol chu phamonga hinam? Nakhut tahun asem thil tahsan chu ipi phatchomna ham, pathen kihoulimpi thei hilou chu!
19 A curse on him who says to the wood, Awake! to the unbreathing stone, Up! let it be a teacher! See, it is plated with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all inside it.
Thinga kona kisem milimho jaha, “Khangin lang chule nei huhdoh un” tiho chunga itobang lunghemna in nanga’u hitam! Thusei theilou song milim kisem ho jah a, “Thoudoh un chuleh neihilun” natiuve. Milim khat nin ipi bol ding nahil theijum? Sana le dangka a kisem himaithei junte, hinla amahon asunguva hinna anei pouve.
20 But the Lord is in his holy Temple: let all the earth be quiet before him.
Hinlah Pakai hi Ahou In Thenga aum’e. Leiset pumpi a angsunga thipchet hen”.
