Esias 9
1 Drink this first. Act quickly, O land of Zabulon, land of Nephthalim, and the rest [inhabiting] the sea-coast, and [the land] beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles.
Hatei, runae khang hnukkhu hmonae dawk hoi ram teh a hlout awh han. Zebulun ram hoi Naphtali ram teh, ahmaloe vah kayanae kâhmo nakunghai a to hmalah teh, tuipui rai ceinae lamthung, Jordan palangpui namran lae, Jentelnaw onae Galilee ram totouh barinae a coe awh han.
2 O people walking in darkness, behold a great light: you that dwell in the region [and] shadow of death, a light shall shine upon you.
Hmonae thung ka cet kaawm e taminaw ni, kalenpounge angnae hah hmawt awh vaiteh, duenae ram thung kaawm naw koe angnae ni a tue han.
3 The multitude of the people which you have brought down in your joy, they shall even rejoice before you as they that rejoice in harvest, and as they that divide the spoil.
Bawipa nang ni miphun hah na pung sak teh, ahnimae lunghawinae hah na pung sak pouh. Canga hnin patetlah lawp e hno kareinaw ni lunghawi e patetlah na hmalah ahnimouh ni a lunghawi awh.
4 Because the yoke that was laid upon them has been taken away, and the rod that was on their neck: for he has broken the rod of the exactors, as in the day of Madiam.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Midiannaw koe na sak e patetlah ahnimouh ni aphu awh e hnori, hemnae bongpai, ka rektapnaw e tahroenaw hah BAWIPA nang ni na khoe pouh toe.
5 For they shall compensate for every garment that has been acquired by deceit, and [all] raiment with restitution; and they shall be willing, [even] if they were burnt with fire.
Ransanaw e khokkhawm hoi thi kânep e khohna puenghai hmai koung sawi lah ao han.
6 For a child is born to us, and a son is given to us, whose government is upon his shoulder: and his name is called the Messenger of great counsel: for I will bring peace upon the princes, and health to him.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, maimouh hanelah camo a khe toe. Maimouh hanelah capa buet touh na poe awh toe. Ahnie loung dawk uknae kâ ao han. Amin teh, Kângairu, Kâpokhaikung, Athakaawme Cathut, Yungyoe e Napa, Roumnae Bawi ti han.
7 His government shall be great, and of his peace there is no end: [it shall be] upon the throne of David, and [upon] his kingdom, to establish it, and to support [it] with judgement and with righteousness, from henceforth and forever. The seal of the Lord of hosts shall perform this.
A uknaeram roung vaiteh, lungmawngnae pout mahoeh. Siangpahrang Devit e bawitungkhung dawk tahung vaiteh, a ram hah a uk han. Atu hoi a yungyoe totouh, kalan lah a uk han. Rasahu BAWIPA ni a sak roeroe hanelah a ngainae ao.
8 The Lord has sent death upon Jacob, and it has come upon Israel.
Bawipa ni Jakop miphun koe a lawk a poe teh, Isarelnaw koe a pha han.
9 And all the people of Ephraim, and they that lived in Samaria shall know, who say in their pride and lofty heart,
Amhru katim nakunghai, pathei tangcoung e talung hoi bout ka sak awh han.
10 The bricks are fallen down, but come, let us hew stones, and cut down sycamores and cedars, and let us build for ourselves a tower.
Thailahei kungnaw teh ka rawm nakunghai, a yueng lah sidarkung ka ung awh han telah ka kâoup awh ni teh a lung kalen awh e Samaria khocanaw hoi Ephraim khocanaw pueng ni a panue awh han.
11 And God shall dash down them that rise up against him on mount Sion, and shall scatter his enemies;
BAWIPA ni ahnimouh hanelah, Rezin tarannaw hah a thaw sak teh, Ephraim e tarannaw hah a thaw sak dawkvah,
12 [even] Syria from the rising of the sun, and the Greeks from the setting of the sun, who devour Israel with open mouth. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but still [his] hand is exalted.
kanîtholah Sirianaw, kanîloumlah Filistinnaw ni a pahni ang awh vaiteh Isarelnaw hah a kei awh han. Hatei, a lungkhueknae teh roum hoeh, a kut teh pou a dâw.
13 But the people turned not until they were struck, and they sought not the Lord.
Hete miphunnaw teh runae kapoekung koelah kamlang a hoeh. Rasahu BAWIPA hah tawng panuek awh hoeh.
14 So the Lord took away from Israel the head and tail, great and small, in one day:
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni Isarel miphunnaw koehoi lû hoi mai hai thoseh, samtue kang hoi pho hai thoseh hnin touh hoi a tâtueng han.
15 the old man, and them that respect persons, this is the head; and the prophet teaching unlawful things, he is the tail.
Lû teh matawng hoi bari kaawmnaw doeh. Mai hateh, laithoe ka dei e profet hah doeh.
16 And they that pronounce this people blessed shall mislead them; and they mislead them that they may devour them.
Hete miphunnaw lam kapatuekungnaw ni lam a payon awh nahanelah lamthung a pâtue awh toe. Ka dawn e naw hai rawknae koe a pha awh han.
17 Therefore the Lord shall not take pleasure in their young men, neither shall he have pity on their orphans or on their widows: for they are all transgressors and wicked, and every mouth speaks unjustly. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but [his] hand is yet exalted.
Hatdawkvah, ahnimae thoundounnaw hah BAWIPA ni a lungyouk hoeh. Naranaw hoi lahmainunaw hai pahren hoeh. Ahnimouh pueng teh, cathutlaipa e naw hoi tamikathoutnaw lah ao awh dawkvah, kamsoumhoehe lawk hah a dei awh. Hatdawkvah, a lungkhueknae roum hoeh, a kut teh pou dâw e lah ao rah.
18 And iniquity shall burn as fire, and shall be devoured by fire as dry grass: and it shall burn in the thickets of the wood, and shall devour all that is round about the hills.
Kamsoumhoehe teh hmai patetlah ouk a kak. Pâkhing aphunphun hah ouk a kamtawi sak. Ratu hai hmaisawi teh, akungnaw teh hmaikhu hoi parang a kâyat han.
19 The whole earth is set on fire because of the fierce anger of the Lord, and the people shall be as men burnt by fire: no man shall pity his brother.
Rasahu BAWIPA e a lungkhueknae dawkvah, talai hmai a kak teh, talai taminaw teh hmai patawi nahane thing lah ao awh han. Hmau nawngha reira buet touh hoi buet touh kâpasai mahoeh.
20 But [one] shall turn aside to the right hand, for he shall be hungry; and shall eat on the left, and a man shall by no means be satisfied with eating the flesh of his own arm.
Aranglah hoi ka bouk ei nakunghai, vonhlam mingming han rah. Avoilah hoi ka cat ei nakunghai, von paha mahoeh. Imri reira e moi hah tami pueng ni a ca awh han.
21 For Manasses shall eat [the flesh] of Ephraim, and Ephraim [the flesh] of Manasses; for they shall besiege Juda together. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but [his] hand is yet exalted.
Manasseh miphun ni Ephraim miphun, Ephraim miphun ni Manasseh miphun hah a kâkei awh han. Hote miphun roi ni Judah miphun hah cungtalah a taran roi han. Hatei, a lungkhueknae teh roum hoeh, a kut teh pou a dâw rah.
