< Joel 3 >
1 For in those days and in that time, when I let the fate of Judah and Jerusalem be changed,
Hiche thilsoh laitah ding chu Pakaiyin aseije, “Chuteng chuleh keiman Juda gamsung leh Jerusalem khopi hamphatna kasemphat teng,
2 I will get together all the nations, and make them come down into the valley of Jehoshaphat; and there I will take up with them the cause of my people and of my heritage Israel, whom they have sent wandering among the nations, and of my land which has been parted by them.
Leiset pumpia galmi jouse Jehosaphet phaichama kakhop khom ding, Hichea chu thu katan ding ahi. Ajeh chu amahon Israel nam hi namtin vaipi laha alhoh thangsoh keiuvin, ka gamsung geijin akihomtauve”.
3 And they have put the fate of my people to the decision of chance: giving a boy for the price of a loose woman and a girl for a drink of wine.
Chuleh kamite chu soh dingin vang asanuvin, pasal chapang ho jong numei noti ho toh akilhehjiuvin, nungah khat geijin jong lengpitwi man din akijohjiuve, chule lengpitwi chu akham sasan adon jiuve.
4 And further, what are you to me, O Tyre and Zidon and all the circle of Philistia? will you give me back any payment? and if you do, quickly and suddenly I will send it back on your head,
Kei douna a ipibol nahiuvem, Tur le Sidon gam chule Philistia? Kei dinga nangho hi ipia kibol nahiuvem? Kei chunga phula dinga kigong nahiuvem? Nanghon kachunga phulah ding nagotuva ahileh, keiman jong natohnau chu hetman loukaha nachunguva ka sunlhahpeh diu ahi.
5 For you have taken my silver and my gold, putting in the houses of your gods my beautiful and pleasing things.
Ajeh chu nanghon keima dangka leh sana nalauvin, kakhol tupsa thil manlutah tah ho jeng jong na pomanguvin gamchom mite indoi houna a na koitauve.
6 And the children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem you have given for a price to the sons of the Greeks, to send them far away from their land:
Nanghon Juda mite le Jerusalem khomite chu Greek mite henga na joh monguvin, gamgi kal lang peha nathah mong sohtauve.
7 See, I will have them moved from the place where you have sent them, and will let what you have done come back on your head;
Ahin lah keiman na johmong namun uva kona ka nung lah kit ding ahi.
8 I will give your sons and your daughters into the hands of the children of Judah for a price, and they will give them for a price to the men of Sheba, a nation far off: for the Lord has said it.
Keiman nachateu numeiho le pasalho jong Juda mite koma ka joh doha, amahon Jong hetphah lou Seba gam mite henga ajoh mong kit diu ahi. Ajeh chu Pakai keiman kana seisa ahitai.
9 Give this out among the nations; make ready for war: get the strong men awake; let all the men of war come near, let them come up.
Gaphong jaluvin hiche namtin vaipi laha. “Galsat dingin kigontauvin, gollhang thahat jouse kikoudohun, mithahat gollhang jouse kitilkhou soh kei’uvin.
10 Get your plough-blades hammered into swords, and your vine-knives into spears: let the feeble say, I am strong.
Na sehcha’u chemjamin kikhenun, na kangkuiju chu tengchan kikhen unlang, milhasam tah jong chun “Galhat kahije” tin seijuhen.
11 Come quickly, all you nations round about, and get yourselves together there: make your strong ones come down, O Lord.
Kintahin kikhom loiyun, akimvella um natin vaipi jouse phaichama hung kihom loiyun. Chuleh tun, Aw Pakai nagal mite koudoh in.
12 Let the nations be awake, and come to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there I will be seated as judge of all the nations round about.
Namtin vaipi amaho leh amaho hungkon uhen, Jehosaphet phaicham a Kijot uhen, Keima, Pakai in hichea chu katouva Thu katan ding ahi.
13 Put in the blade, for the grain is ready: come, get you down, for the wine-crusher is full, the vessels are overflowing; for great is their evil-doing.
Koite kigotin chang-at ding aminin akuitai. Hung inlang lengpiga hung chilin, lengpiga chilna adimsoh tai. Bel le kong jouse jong aletlha soh tai. Ajeh chu hiche mite agit louna’u anasa behseh jengin ahi.
14 Masses on masses in the valley of decision! for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.
Thutanna phaicham a asang asangin angah tai, Pakai nikho chu hung lhungvah ding ahitai.
15 The sun and the moon have become dark, and the stars keep back their shining.
Nisa le lhathah hung thim ding, chule ahsi ho jong vahta louding ahi.
16 And the Lord will be thundering from Zion, and his voice will be sounding from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth will be shaking: but the Lord will be a breastplate for his people and a strong place for the children of Israel.
Pakai Awgin Ziona kithong ding chuleh Jerusalema kona keh lhading chuleh Van le leiset kiling ding, ahin Pakai chu amite kiselna hiding, Israel mite dinga kiselna kulpi hiding ahi.
17 And you will be certain that I am the Lord your God, living in Zion, my holy mountain: and Jerusalem will be holy, and no strange person will ever again go through her.
Hiteng chuleh keima na Pakai na Pathenu, Zion lhang thenga cheng kahi neihetdoh dingu ahi. Jerusalem a imatih chana theng jing jeng ding, chuleh gamchoma galmiten imatih chana ajo lou ding ahi.
18 And it will come about in that day that the mountains will be dropping sweet wine, and the hills will be flowing with milk, and all the streams of Judah will be flowing with water; and a fountain will come out from the house of the Lord, watering the valley of acacia-trees.
Hiche nikho teng chuleh mol chunga kona Lengpitwi lhum hung longa, lhangdung jouse jong bongnoi hung long ding. Juda gamsung’a vacha hom jouse twi dim soha, Jerusalem Pakai Hou in Thenga kona, Acacias phaicham geija hung long lha ding ahi.
19 Egypt will be a waste and Edom a land of destruction, because of the evil done to the children of Judah, because they have let blood be drained out in their land without cause.
Ahinlah Egyp gamsung ahom keova hung lum ding, Edom jong ahom keova Gamthip hung soh ding, ajeh chu amahon Juda mite chu pumhat jengin anaboluvin, agamsung uva themmona bei mite thisan anasouvin ahi.
20 But Judah will be peopled for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
“Ahinlah Juda gamhi a imatih chana amite dimset ding, chuleh Jerusalem Jong akhang khanga amiten kichenpi ding ahi.
21 And I will send punishment for their blood, for which punishment has not been sent, for the Lord is living in Zion.
Keiman kamite asuhkhel nau ka ngaidam ding chuleh keima Pakai in Jerusalem a, ka mite jouse toh ka in ka sah ding ahi.”
