< Isaiah 14 >

1 Her time is drawing near, and her days will not be prolonged. For the Lord will take pity on Jacob, and he will still choose from Israel, and he will cause them to rest upon their own soil. And the new arrival will be joined to them, and he will adhere to the house of Jacob.
BOEIPA loh Jakob te a haidam vetih Israel te koep a coelh ni. Amih te amah khohmuen ah a khueh vetih yinlai loh amih taengah naep ni. Te vaengah yinlai khaw Jakob imkhui la thawth uh ni.
2 And the people will take them, and lead them to their place. And the house of Israel will possess them, in the land of the Lord, as men and women servants. And they will take captive those who had taken them captive. And they will subjugate their oppressors.
Amih te pilnam loh a khuen vetih amah hmuen la a thak ni. BOEIPA kah khohmuen ah amih te Israel imkhui kah salnu neh salpa la a pang uh ni. Te vaengah amih kah a sol te a hlang sol a khueh uh vetih amih aka tueihno rhoek te a taemrhai uh ni.
3 And this shall be in that day: when God will have given you rest from your labor, and from your oppression, and from the difficult servitude under which you served before,
Na tloh khui lamloh, nang kah khoponah khui lamloh, nang taengah manghkhak la aka thohtat sak thohtatnah lamloh nang duem sak ham BOEIPA kah khohnin ha pawk ni.
4 you will accept this parable against the king of Babylon, and you will say: “How is it that the oppressor has ceased, along with his tribute?
Te vaengah Babylon manghai taengah thuidoeknah he na khuen vetih, “Tueihno te metlam a paa tih thisanah a kangkuen mai.
5 The Lord has crushed the staff of the impious, the scepter of despots,
BOEIPA loh halang kah conghol neh boei kah mancai khaw a khaem pah coeng.
6 which struck the people in wrath with an incurable wound, which subjugated the nations in fury, which persecuted with cruelty.
Hmasoe kah a thinpom neh pilnam a ngawn. Koeknah pawt khaw, thintoek neh a namtom taemrhai tih, phaepnah te tuem pawh.
7 All the earth has become quiet and still; it has been gladdened and has rejoiced.
Duem aka mong diklai pum khaw tamlung neh rhong uh coeng.
8 The evergreens, too, have rejoiced over you, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying: ‘Since you have slept, no one has ascended who would cut us down.’
Hmaical loh nang te n'kokhah thil tih na yalh vaeng lamkah long ni Lebanon lamphai loh, “Mamih aka vung te pongpa voel pawh,” a ti coeng.
9 Hell below was stirred up to meet you at your advent; it has awakened the giants for you. All the leaders of the earth have risen from their thrones, all the leaders among the nations.” (Sheol h7585)
Saelkhui te nang doe hamla ha pawk vaengah nang ham te a laedil ah tlai coeng. Diklai kikong boeih kah sairhai te nang hamla a haeng coeng tih namtom manghai boeih te a ngolkhoel lamloh a thoh sak. (Sheol h7585)
10 Everyone will respond and will say to you: “Now you are wounded, just as we were; you have become like us.
Amih te boeih a doo uh vetih nang taengah, “Namah khaw kaimih bangla na nue coeng tih kaimih bang boeiloeih la na om coeng.
11 Your arrogance has been dragged down to Hell. Your body has fallen dead. The moths will be strewn beneath you, and the worms will be your covering. (Sheol h7585)
Na hoemdamnah na thangpa ol te, Saelkhui la a suntlak sak coeng. Namah hmui ah arhit phaih uh tih na dakda talam la poeh coeng,” na ti uh bitni. (Sheol h7585)
12 How is it that you have fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, who used to rise like the sun? How is it that you have fallen to the earth, you who wounded the peoples?
Yaoe thuipa khaw vaan lamloh na cungku mai tih khothaih capa khaw diklai la m'vung tih namtom taengah aka rhaa uh mai.
13 And you said in your heart: ‘I will climb up to heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God. I will be enthroned upon the mountain of the covenant, on the northern parts.
Nang khaw na thinko ah,” Vaan la ka luei hang vetih Pathen kah aisi soah ka ngolkhoel ka pomsang saeh lamtah tlangpuei tlanghlaep kah tingtunnah tlang ah ka ngol eh.
14 I will ascend above the tops of the clouds. I will be like the Most High.’
Hmuensang khomai dongah ka cet vetih Khohni te ka puet eh?,” na ti.
15 Yet truly, you shall be dragged down to Hell, into the depths of the pit. (Sheol h7585)
Tedae tangrhom laedil kah saelkhui la na suntla coeng. (Sheol h7585)
16 Those who see you, will lean toward you, and will gaze upon you, saying: ‘Could this be the man who disturbed the earth, who shook kingdoms,
Nang aka hmu rhoek loh namah te m'hmaitang uh. Nang kawng te, “Diklai aka tlai sak tih ram aka hinghuen hlang te a?
17 who made the world into a desert and destroyed its cities, who would not even open a prison for his prisoners?’”
Lunglai te khosoek la aka khueh tih khopuei khaw a koengloeng. A thongtla te im la hlah pawh,” tila m'hmat uh.
18 All the kings of the nations throughout the whole world have slept in glory, each man in his own house.
Namtom manghai boeih khaw a thangpomnah neh a im ah a pum la rhip yalh uh.
19 But you have been rejected from your grave, like a useless polluted plant, and you have been bound up with those who were slain by the sword, and who descended to the bottom of the pit, like a rotting carcass.
Tedae nang te thingpae bangla na phuel lamloh m'voeih. cunghang neh a thun tih a ngawn kah pueinak bangla n'tuei coeng. Lungto tangrhom khuila aka suntla rhok bangla n'suntlae coeng.
20 You will not be associated with them, even in the grave. For you have destroyed your own land; you have slain your own people. The offspring of the wicked ones will not be called upon for eternity.
Na khohmuen kah na pilnam te na phae tih na ngawn coeng dongah phuel ah khaw amih te pitpom sak mahpawh. Thaehuet rhoek kah tiingan tah kumhal duela thoel boel saeh.
21 Prepare his sons for the slaughter, according to the iniquity of their fathers. They will not rise up, nor inherit the earth, nor fill the face of the world with cities.
Amih te thoo mahpawt nim, a napa rhoek kathaesainah kongah a ca rhoek ham saicaeh hmuen te soepsoei pauh. Te daengah ni khohmuen te a pang uh vetih khopuei kah lunglai hman ah a baetawt uh eh.
22 But I will rise up against them, says the Lord of hosts. And I will perish the name of Babylon and its remnants: both the plant and its progeny, says the Lord.
Amih voelah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong te ka thoh puei vetih Babylon ming neh a ca aka sueng te khaw, a cadil khaw ka saii ni. BOEIPA olphong coeng ni he.
23 And I will appoint it as a possession for the hedgehog, with swamps of water. And I will sweep it out and wear it away with a brush, says the Lord of hosts.
Khopuei te kharhoeng hut neh tuibap tui la ka khueh ni. Lungtang neh ka nawt vetih ka mitmoeng sak ni. Caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni he.
24 The Lord of hosts has sworn, saying: Surely, just as I have considered it, so shall it be, and in the same manner as I have drawn it through my mind,
Caempuei BOEIPA loh a toemngam tih, “Ka cai bangla om tangloeng tih ka uen bangla a thoh tangkhuet moenih a? a ti.
25 so shall it occur. So shall I crush the Assyrian in my land, and I will trample him upon my mountains, and his yoke will be taken away from them, and his burden will be removed from their shoulder.
Ka khohmuen kah Assyria khaem hamla ka tlang dongah ka suntlae ni. Te vaengah amih lamkah a hnamkun te a dul vetih a laengpang dong lamkah a hnorhih a hal ni.
26 This is the plan that I have decided, concerning the entire earth, and this is the hand which is extended over all the nations.
Hekah cilsuep he diklai pum ham ni a poek tih kut he khaw namtom rhoek boeih a thueng thil coeng.
27 For the Lord of hosts has decreed it, and who is able to weaken it? And his hand is extended, so who can avert it?
caempuei BOEIPA loh a uen coeng dongah u long a phae voel. A kut te a thueng coeng dongah u long a yueh thai voel.
28 In the year in which king Ahaz died, this burden was given:
Manghai Ahaz a dueknah kum ah hekah olrhuh he ha pawk.
29 You should not rejoice, all you of Philistia, that the rod of him who struck you has been crushed. For from the root of the serpent will go forth a king snake, and his offspring will engulf that which flies.
Nang aka ngawn mancai a tlawt te Philistia nang loh boeih kokhahnah boeh. Rhul a yung te rhulthae la thoeng vetih a thaih te aka ding minyuk la poeh ni.
30 And the firstborn of the poor will be pastured, and the poor will rest in faithfulness. And I will cause your root to pass away by famine, and I will put to death your remnant.
Tattloel rhoek kah caming rhoek te luem uh vetih khodaeng rhoek khaw ngaikhuek la kol uh ni. Tedae na yung te khokha neh ka duek sak vetih na meet te a ngawn ni.
31 Wail, O gate! Cry out, O city! All of Philistia has been prostrated. For a smoke will arrive from the north, and there is no one who will escape his army.
Vongka nang rhung laeh. Khopuei nang pang laeh. Tlangpuei lamkah hmaikhu ha thoeng tih a caempa khuiah a pangoe pawt dongah Philistia nang tah boeih paci coeng.
32 And what will be the response to this news among the nations? It will be that the Lord has established Zion, and that the poor of his people will hope in him.
BOEIPA loh Zion a suen tih a khuiah a pilnam mangdaeng a ying ham te namtom puencawn loh metlam a doo eh.
