< Isaiah 10 >

1 Woe to those who make unfair laws, and who, when writing, write injustice:
Ohe itobang lunghemnan hiche thudihlouva thutanho le dan dihlouva vaihom ho chu alamto tadem!
2 in order to oppress the poor in judgment, and to do violence to the case of the humble of my people, in order that widows may be their prey, and that they might plunder the orphan.
Amahon migentheiho chungah kithutandihna alhunsah pouvin, kamite lah-a alhasamhon angaichat achandiu dol chanvou jong aphalpeh pouve. Meithaiho agem’un, naochagaho lhahsamna chungah phatchomna akiholuve.
3 What will you do on the day of visitation and calamity which is approaching from afar? To whom will you flee for assistance? And where will you leave behind your own glory,
Gamlatah-a kon hahsatna kahin lhunsah-a gotna kahin chansah tengule ipi nabol diu ham? Koi kom nangatnuva panpina nathum diu hitam?
4 so that you may not be bowed down under the chains, and fall with the slain? Concerning all this, his fury was not turned away; instead, his hand was still extended.
Galmun’a nathilouvujongle soh-a dinga mi’n nakaimang diu ahitai. Hiche geiya jong Pakai lungdam dehlou ding, talen matsahbe dia khut alap jing nahlai ding ahi.
5 Woe to Assur! He is the rod and the staff of my fury, and my indignation is in their hands.
“Ohe! Itobang vangsetnan ahinlamto tadem—Keiman kalunghanna mite jepna tenggol banga kamanji Assyria chu.
6 I will send him to a deceitful nation, and I will order him against the people of my fury, so that he may take away the plunder, and tear apart the prey, and place it to be trampled like the mud of the streets.
Keiman Assyria hi eilunghansah mite kadelkhumsah-in, anei agou jouseu kachomgamsahin, tolbol laha amite kachilthangsah-e.
7 But he will not consider it to be so, and his heart will not suppose it to be this way. Instead, his heart will be set to crush and to exterminate more than a few nations.
Ahinlah Assyria Lengpan ama chu kamanchah, kakhetbuh ahilam akihetpon; alungin angaito phapoi. Ama lunglam chu bailamtaha nam khat a pat nam khat suhmang jeng ding ti bou chu ahi.
8 For he will say:
Ama’n seiyinte: ‘Kagal lamkai jouse jong hi lenga hungpang loi diu ahi.
9 “Are not my princes like many kings? Is not Calno like Carchemish, and Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria like Damascus?
Calno kasumangui, Carchemish kabol bangun. Hamath jong Arpad bangin kamasanguva abohkhup tauve. Chuleh Samaria jong Damascus bangin kasumang tauve.
10 In the same manner as my hand reached the kingdoms of the idol, so also will it reach their false images, those of Jerusalem and of Samaria.
Henge, lenggam tamtah, apathen’u Jerusalem le Samariatea sanga loupijoho jeng jong abonuvin kajousoh tauve.
11 Should I not do to Jerusalem and her false images, just as I have done to Samaria and her idols?”
Chuti ahijeh-a chu Jerusalem le apathen’u chu kasuhmang diu ahitai, Samaria le apathen kasuhmangtha banguva,” tiin.
12 And this shall be: when the Lord will have completed each of his works on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, I will act against the fruit of the exalted heart of king Assur, and against the glory of the haughtiness of his eyes.
Pakaiyin atohgon Zion molsang le Jerusalem’a asuhbulhitna dinga Assyria lengpa amanchah banga, Ama’n Assyria lengpa chung ngeiya jong gotna alhunsah ding ahi—ijeh-inem itileh ama chu akiletsah-in ahamhoitho ta’n ahi.
13 For he has said: “I have acted with the strength of my own hand, and I have understood with my own wisdom, and I have removed the limits of the people, and I have plundered their leaders, and, like one with power, I have pulled down those residing on high.
Ama chun, “Keima banthahat vanga bou hichan hi kaboldoh ahitai. Keima chihna le themna dungjuiya thilgon kabol ahi. Chitin namtin galkul kaphutvangin anei-agouvu kachomngim tai. Alengteu jong bongchal kikailhu bangin kasulhugamtai.
14 And my hand has reached to the strength of the people, as to a nest. And, just as the eggs which have been left behind are gathered, so have I gathered the entire earth. And there was no one who moved a wing, or opened a mouth, or uttered a snarl.”
Loubolpa’n ahtui alokhom bangin agoubom’u le alenggam jouseu kalohkhom sohhel tai. Koiman keima douna-a alha ajap ngam tahlou ding chuleh keima douna kamcheng khat jeng jong aphondoh ngamlou ding ahitai,” tiin aseiye.
15 Should the axe glorify itself over him who wields it? Or can the saw exalt itself over him who pulls it? How can a rod lift itself up against him who wields it, or a staff exalt itself, though it is only wood?
Ahileh, heicha’n athingtanpa sanga thupijoa kiseithei mong ding hinam? Thing-at chu athing-atpa sanga thupijoam? Thing tenggolin achanga lam ajotthei ding hinam?
16 Because of this, the sovereign Lord, the Lord of hosts, will send leanness among his fat ones. And under the influence of his glory, a burning ardor will rage, like a consuming fire.
Hijeh-a chu, Pakai, Van galsatte Pakai chun Assyriate galsat hamhoithoho laha chu hise alhunsah ding, akiloupisahnau chu meikongin ahallhum ding ahi.
17 And the light of Israel will be like a fire, and the Holy One of Israel will be like a flame. And his thorns and briers will be set ablaze and devoured, in one day.
Pakai, Israelte salvah chu meikongin pangintin, Athengpa chu ameikou hiding ahi. Ama’n ling le khao jouse le melmate chu jan khat kah-a meikonga ahallhum ding ahi.
18 And the glory of his forest and of his beautiful hill will be consumed, from the soul even to the flesh. And he will flee away in terror.
Pakaiyin Assyria loupina chu theiga phatna gam'a gammang meikah banga meiya aleochaisoh ding; hichu nat-hise la’n jeh'a hiveiho amahthahgam banga manthaina umding ahi.
19 And what remains of the trees of his forest will be so few, and so easily numbered, that even a child could write them down.
Hiche gammang thupitah sunga thingphung lhomcha sohcha ding—alhom dan chu chapang jengin jong ajat asimthei khambep hiding ahi.
20 And this shall be in that day: those not added to the remnant of Israel, and those who escape of the house of Jacob, will not lean upon him who strikes them. Instead, they will lean upon the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
Chuniteng chuleh Israel gam'a akidalha ahingdoh chengse chun Van galsatte Pakai, Israelte Athengpa chu kitahtah-a atahsan diu ahitai.
21 The remnant of Jacob, again I say the remnant, will be converted to the mighty God.
Hiche akidalha ahingdohho, Jacob chilhahte chu Pathen Hatchungnung hengah kiletauvinte.
22 For though your people, O Israel, will be like the sand of the sea, yet only a remnant of them will be converted. The consummation, having been shortened, will be inundated with justice.
Israelte chu twipi panga neldi jat phajongleu, alahuva ahingdohho bou chu Pakai koma kile ding ahiuve. Pakai chun amite chu asuhmang dinga thulhuhna dihtaha abol ahitai.
23 For the Lord, the God of hosts, will accomplish an abbreviation and a consummation, in the midst of all the earth.
Henge, Pakai, Van gatsatte Pakai chun agamsung pumpi chu suhmang dinga anagotsa ahitai.
24 For this reason, the Lord, the God of hosts, says this: “My people, who inhabit Zion: do not be afraid of Assur. He will strike you with his rod, and he will lift up his staff over you, on the way of Egypt.
Hijehchun Pakai, Van galsatte Pakai chun hitin aseiye: “O Zion’a um kamite, Masanglaiya Egypt gam'a suhgentheiya naum lai banguva Assyriaten mollhon le hem’a nahin sat tengule kichahihun.
25 But after a little while and a brief time, my indignation will be consumed, and my fury will turn to their wickedness.”
Chomkhat joule nachunguva kalunghanna hung beiyintin, chuteng kalunghanna chu namelmateu suhchimitna dingin kileheitante.
26 And the Lord of hosts will raise up a scourge over him, like the scourge of Midian at the rock of Oreb, and he will raise up his rod over the sea, and he will lift it up against the way of Egypt.
Keiman Oreb songpi chunga Midian mite kakhaoguiya kajep’a Gideon galjona kapeh-a, chuleh kamoljol akidopsanga Egypt galsatte twipin alhohmanggam banga Assyriate jong kasuhmanggam ding ahi.
27 And this shall be in that day: his burden will be taken away from your shoulder, and his yoke will be taken away from your neck, and the yoke will decay at the appearance of the oil.
Chuniteng chuleh Pakaiyin amite sohchanna phat akichaisah ding, alengkou-uva kon’a soh namkol asutlhahpeh ding ahi.
28 He will approach Aiath; he will cross into Migron; he will entrust his vessels to Michmash.
Veuvin, tuhin Assyriate Aiath ah aumtauve. Migron ajotpauvin amanchah thilkeohou Micmash munah akoikhomuve.
29 They have passed through in haste; Geba is our seat; Ramah was stupefied; Gibeah of Saul fled.
Agallangkhat ahung galkaiyun, Geba munah ajan-geh tauve. Ramah khopi kichatnan akithingtai. Saul khopi, Gibeah mite jong ajam gamtauve.
30 Neigh with your voice, daughter of Gallim; pay attention, Laishah, impoverished woman of Anathoth.
Tijatnan kholhang akisam’e: Vo Gallim mite! Laishah mite ngaiyun! Khoto naum ngeiyui, O Anathoth mite!
31 Madmenah has moved away; be strengthened, you inhabitants of Gebim.
Madmenah mite jong ajamcheh gamtauve. Gebim khomiten kiselna ding mun aholtauve.
32 It is still daylight, so stand at Nob. He will shake his hand against the mountain of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
Tu’n jong Nob khomunah nilhumin melmate akicholdovin, Jerusalem lhanga Zion Molsang hoitah chu agaldotnun akhuttum ajelkhumui.
33 Behold, the sovereign Lord of hosts will crush the little bottle of wine with terror, and the exalted in stature will be cut down, and the lofty will be brought low.
Hinla veuvin! Pakai, Van galsatte Pakaiyin Assyriate thingphung lentahpa chu thahattaha aphuhlhuh ding ahi! Akiloupisahna chu asatlhuh ding ahi. Hiche thingphung sangtahpa chu kiloilhu ding ahi.
34 And the dense forest will be overturned with iron. And Lebanon, with its exalted ones, will fall.
Gammang thingphungho banga heicha-a kitulhugam diu ahi. Lebanon chu Hatchungnungpa masanga lhuding ahi.
