Esias 5
1 Now I will sing to [my] beloved a song of my beloved concerning my vineyard. [My] beloved had a vineyard on a high hill in a fertile place.
Ka pahren e misur takha hah, pahrennae la hoi a hmalah ka sak haw nei. Talai hawinae koe mon vah, ka pahren e misur takha buet touh ao.
2 And I made a hedge round it, and dug a trench, and planted a choice vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and dug a place for the wine-vat in it: and I waited [for it] to bring forth grapes, and it brought forth thorns.
Talai a tai teh, talungnaw a takhoe hnukkhu, kahawipoung e misurkung hah a ung. Takha thung ring nahanelah imrasang hai a sak teh, misur paw a paw han titeh a ngaihawi. Hatei, misur kaphawk bo oun ka paw aw.
3 And now, ye dwellers in Jerusalem, and [every] man of Juda, judge between me and my vineyard.
Atuvah, Oe Judah khocanaw, Jerusalem khocanaw, kai hoi kaie misur takha rahak vah, laidei awh haw.
4 What shall I do any more to my vineyard, that I have not done to it? Whereas I expected [it] to bring forth grapes, but it has brought forth thorns.
Kai takha koe hawinae ka sak thai nahlangva, ka sak hoeh rae ao ma aw. Misurpaw a paw han doeh titeh, ka ngaihawi nah, bangkongmaw misur kaphawk lah a paw vaw.
5 And now I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away its hedge, and it shall be for a spoil; and I will pull down its walls, and it shall be [left] to be trodden down.
Atu thai haw. Kaie misur takha dawk ka sak hane kawi na patue avai. Tumdumnae rui payang e hah, ka raphoe vaiteh, ayâ alouke ni a ca awh han. Tumdumnae amhru tapang hah ka raphoe vaiteh, ayâ alouke ni a coungroe awh han.
6 And I will forsake my vineyard; and it shall not be pruned, nor dug, and thorns shall come up upon it as on barren land; and I will command the clouds to rain no rain upon it.
Takha hah khoeroe ka raphoe han. Apinihai pathoup mahoeh. Apinihai vulai mahoeh. Pâkhing aphunphun a paw han. Hote takha dawk kho a rak hoeh nahanelah, kâ bout a poe han.
7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Juda [his] beloved plant: I expected [it] to bring forth judgment, and it brought forth iniquity; and not righteousness, but a cry.
Rasahu BAWIPA e misur takha teh, Isarelnaw lah ao teh, Judahnaw teh Bawipa ni a ngai e misurkung lah ao. Bawipa ni lannae hah a ngaihawi ei, khenhaw! kâtheinae hoi doeh akawi. Lannae yueng lah hramkinae doeh kaawm.
8 Woe [to them] that join house to house, and add field to field, that they may take away something of their neighbor's: will ye dwell alone upon the land?
A hmuen houng sak laipalah, im touh hnukkhu im touh a pakaw awh teh, laikawk buet touh hnukkhu buet touh ka pakaw e teh a yawthoe. Hote laikawk lungui vah, nangmouh duengdoeh na kaawm awh han.
9 For these things have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts: for though many houses should be built, many and fair houses shall be desolate, and there shall be no inhabitants in them.
Rasahu BAWIPA ni kai koe a dei e teh, atangcalah, moikapap e imnaw heh, tami kingkadi e lah awm vaiteh, im kalennaw dawkvah, kaawm hane awm laipalah ao han.
10 For where ten yoke of oxen plough [the land] shall yield one jar-full, and he that sows six homers shall produce three measures.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Misurtakha ekah hra touh dawk misurtui um touh dueng a tâco vaiteh, cati hmuen hra touh tunae dawk hoi hai hmuen touh dueng a tâco han.
11 Woe [to them] that rise up in the morning, and follow strong drink; who wait [at it till] evening: for the wine shall inflame them.
Na kahma awh toe! Yamu nei hanelah, amom na thaw awh teh, tangmin totouh misurtui na parui awh.
12 For they drink wine with harp, and psaltery, and drums, and pipes: but they regard not the works of the Lord, and consider not the works of his hands.
Nangmae canei pawi koe ratoung, tamawi, cecak, vovit, hoi misurtui hoi akawi. BAWIPA e kut hoi sak e hno hai na hmawt awh hoeh.
13 Therefore my people have been taken captive, because they know not the Lord: and there has been a multitude of dead [bodies], because of hunger and of thirst for water.
Hatdawkvah, ka taminaw panuenae ayoun dawkvah pâlei lah ao awh. Ahnimae bari kaawm e naw teh, a vonhlam awh. Ahnimae taminaw teh tui kahran hoi ao awh.
14 Therefore hell has enlarged its desire and opened its mouth without ceasing: and her glorious and great, and her rich and her pestilent men shall go down [into it]. (Sheol h7585)
Hatdawkvah, Phuen kho (Sheol) ni a ngainae a len sak teh, apâhni teh bangnue thai hoeh hane totouh a ang teh, Zion bawilennae hoi a taminaw teh, hrawang laihoi, ka lamtu e naw hoi reirei a kum awh han. (Sheol h7585)
15 And the mean man shall be brought low, and the great man shall be disgraced, and the lofty eyes shall be brought low.
Tami teh pabo lah ao dawkvah, tami pueng teh a rahnoum awh han. Ka kâoupnaw e minhmai hai a rahnoum han.
16 But the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and the holy God shall be glorified in righteousness.
Ransahu BAWIPA teh, lawkcengnae lahoi tawm lah ao teh, Kathoung e Cathut teh, ama thoungnae hah lannae lahoi a kamnue sak han.
17 And they that were spoiled shall be fed as bulls, and lambs shall feed on the waste places of them that are taken away.
Hatnavah, tucanaw teh, amamae pânae patetlah a pâ awh vaiteh a ca awh han. Dongdeng ka lamroenaw ni, tangrengnaw e caneinae hmuen koe, a canei awh han.
18 Woe [to them] that draw sins to them as with a long rope, and iniquities as with a thong of the heifer's yoke:
Payonnae hah laithoe hradang hoi ka sawn e tami, yon hah rangleng rui hoi sawn e patetlah ka sawn e taminaw teh a yawthoe awh.
19 who say, Let him speedily hasten what he will do, that we may see [it]: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel come, that we may know [it].
Ahnimouh ni, kaimouh ni ka hmu awh nahanelah Bawipa ni karang sak naseh. A thaw hah karang tawk naseh. Kaimouh ni ka hmu awh nahanelah, Isarelnaw e kathounge Bawipa ni rek hnai naseh. Tho naseh telah ouk a dei awh.
20 Woe [to them] that call evil good, and good evil; who make darkness light, and light darkness; who make bitter sweet, and sweet bitter.
Kathout hah kahawi, kahawi e hah kathout telah ka tet e tami, angnae hah hmonae, hmonae hah angnae, karadip hah kakhat, kakhat hah karadip ka tet e tami teh a yawthoe.
21 Woe [to them] that are wise in their own conceit, and knowing in their own sight.
Amamae mithmu dawk teh, amamouh hah tami lungkaangnaw, panuenae katawnnaw telah ka tet e tami teh a yawthoe.
22 Woe to the strong [ones] of you that drink wine, and the mighty [ones] that mingle strong drink:
Misurtui neinae koe athakaawme taminaw hoi yamu sak kalawtnae koe athakaawme taminaw teh a yawthoe awh.
23 who justify the ungodly for rewards, and take away the righteousness of the righteous.
Ahnimouh teh, tadawngnae kecu dawk tami kathout hah tami kahawi telah ati teh, tami kalannaw e lannae law teh a takhoe awh.
24 Therefore as stubble shall be burnt by a coal of fire, and shall be consumed by a violent flame, their root shall be as chaff, and their flower shall go up as dust: for they rejected the law of the Lord of hosts, and insulted the word of the Holy One of Israel.
Hatdawkvah, hmaipalai ni cakong hoi phoke a kak e patetlah ahnimae a tangpha teh, kahmawn e patetlah ao dawkvah, ahnimae a pei hai vaiphu patetlah mungpoung han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh teh ransahu BAWIPA e kâlawk hah a takhoe awh teh, Isarelnaw e kathoungpounge Bawipa ni a dei e naw hah banglahai noutna awh hoeh.
25 Therefore the Lord of hosts was greatly angered against his people, and he reached forth his hand upon them, and smote them: and the mountains were troubled, and their carcasses were as dung in the midst of the way: yet for all this his anger has not been turned away, but his hand is yet raised.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA teh a taminaw koe a lungkhuek teh, ahnimouh van a kut a dâw teh, runae a poe dawkvah, monnaw a kâhuet teh, ahnimae ronaw teh lamthungnaw dawk songnawng patetlah ao awh han.
26 Therefore shall he lift up a signal to the nations that are afar, and shall hiss for them from the end of the earth; and, behold, they are coming very quickly.
Bawipa ni ahlanae hmuen koehoi a taminaw hanelah, mitnout a ung pouh teh, talai poutnae koe kaawm e naw hah pâhui laihoi a kaw. Hatnavah, khenhaw! Ahnimouh teh karang poung lah yawng laihoi a tho awh.
27 They shall not hunger nor be weary, neither shall they slumber nor sleep; neither shall they loose their girdles from their loins, neither shall their shoe-latchets be broken.
Ahnimouh dawk ka tawn e awm hoeh. Thongmui kamthui laihoi ka tâlaw e hai awm hoeh. Ka ngam e hai awm hoeh. Ka ip e hai awm hoeh. Taisawm kâratham hoeh. Khokkhawmrui hai pet hoeh.
28 Whose arrows are sharp, and their bows bent; their horses' hoofs are counted as solid rock: their chariot-wheels are as a storm.
Ahnimae pala teh hruepatuecalah ao teh, licung teh sut patung e lah ao. Ahnimae marangnaw e khoktabeinaw teh, lungtaw hoi a kâvan telah pouk e lah ao teh, ahnimae taran tuknae ranglengnaw hai bongparui patetlah doeh ao awh.
29 They rage as lions, and draw nigh as a lion's whelps: and he shall seize, and roar as a wild beast, and he shall cast [them] forth, and there shall be none to deliver them.
Ahnimae hramki lawk teh, sendek huk lawk hoi a kâvan teh, ahnimouh teh sendek patetlah a huk awh han. A rakoung e teh apinihai lawm thai mahoeh.
30 And he shall roar on account of them in that day, as the sound of the swelling sea; and they shall look to the land, and, behold, [there shall be] thick darkness in their perplexity.
Hot hnin vah, ahnimouh teh tuipui e cairing lawk patetlah a cairing awh han. Buetbuet touh ni hote ram hah khen pawiteh, khenhaw! hmonae hoi runae duengdoeh kaawm. Angnae teh hote ram dawk tâmai kecu king a hmo han.
