< Isaiah 31 >
1 Cursed are those who go down to Egypt for help, and who put their faith in horses; looking to war-carriages for salvation, because of their numbers; and to horsemen, because they are very strong; but they are not looking to the Holy One of Israel, or turning their hearts to the Lord;
Anunae bomnah dang ham Egypt aka suntlak thil rhoek aih, marhang dongah hangdang uh tih leng dongah pangtung uh. Ping uh tih marhang caem neh tahoeng uh aih. Te dongah Israel kah a cim taengla mang uh pawt tih Yahovah te dawtlet uh pawh.
2 Though he is wise, and able to send evil, and his purpose will not be changed; but he will go against the house of the evil-doers, and against those to whom they are looking for help.
Tedae BOEIPAamah khaw a cueih dongah yoethae a thoeng sak thai. A ol khaw a yueh voel pawt dongah thaehuet imkhui neh boethae aka saii kah bomkung te a tlai thil ni.
3 For the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses are flesh, and not spirit: and when the Lord's hand is stretched out, the helper and he who is helped will come down together.
Egypt te hlang ni, Pathen moenih. Amih kah marhang te pumsa ni mueihla moenih. BOEIPA loh a kut a thueng atah aka bom kung te paloe vetih a bom hlang te khaw cungku ni. Te vaengah amih te a rhenten la boeih hmata uh ni.
4 For the Lord has said to me, As a lion, or a young lion, makes an angry noise over his food, and if a band of herdsmen come out against him, he will not be in fear of their voices, or give up his food for their noise: so the Lord of armies will come down to make war against Mount Zion and its hill.
Te dongah sathueng neh cathueng ca loh a maeh a nguel thil bangla BOEIPA loh kai taengah a thui. Boiva aka dawn te rhoihui la a khue thil dae amih ol ah rhihyawp pawt tih amih hlangping long khaw a paa sak moenih. Te dongah caempuei BOEIPA tah Zion tlang neh som te muk hamla ha suntla ni.
5 Like birds with outstretched wings, so will the Lord of armies be a cover to Jerusalem; he will be a cover and salvation for it, going over it he will keep it from danger.
Vaa bangla lam tangloeng tih caempuei BOEIPA loh Jerusalem a tungaep ni. A tungaep vetih a huul ni. A kan vetih a loeih sak ni.
6 Come back to him who has been so deeply sinned against by the children of Israel.
Koeknah dongah aka muelh Israel ca rhoek aw, amah taengla mael uh laeh.
7 For in that day they will all give up their images of silver and of gold, the sin which they made for themselves.
Tekah khohnin ah tah hlang boeih loh amah cakhli mueirhol, namamih kah tholhnah ham na kut loh a saii uh a sui mueirhol te a hnawt uh ni.
8 Then the Assyrian will come down by the sword, but not of man; the sword, not of men, will be the cause of his destruction: and he will go in flight from the sword, and his young men will be put to forced work.
Assyria te hlang pawt kah cunghang dongah cungku vetih tongpa pawt kah cunghang loh anih te a hlap ni. cunghang taeng lamloh a rhaelrham vaengah a tongpang rhoek te saldong la om uh ni.
9 And his rock will come to nothing because of fear, and his chiefs will go in flight from the flag, says the Lord, whose fire is in Zion, and his altar in Jerusalem.
A thaelpang khaw rhihnah loh a poe vetih a mangpa rhoek te rholik kongah rhihyawp uh ni. BOEIPA kah olphong tah Zion ah amah kah hmaipuei la, Jerusalem ah amah kah hmaipom la a pak ni.
