Isaiah 18
1 Woe to the land, that winged cymbal, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia,
Kush palangnaw namran lah, cahucahu kacai e ratheinaw onae ram teh a yawthoe.
2 which sends ambassadors by sea and in vessels of papyrus above the waters. Go forth, O swift Angels, to a nation which has been convulsed and torn apart, to a terrible people, after whom there is no other, to a nation apprehensive and downtrodden, whose land the rivers have spoiled.
Hothateh, tuipui lam hoi thoseh, tui van vah, lungpum longnaw hoi thoseh, patounenaw patoun e ram lah ao. Karang poung e kaoungkung naw, ka rasang ni teh a tak kâpi e miphun, kahnai kahlat kaawm e taminaw ni taki e miphun, palangnaw kamphinae koe e talai dawk kaawm e, a tha kaawm ni teh reprep ka coungroe e miphun koe cet awh haw.
3 All inhabitants of the world, you who dwell upon the earth: when the sign will have been elevated on the mountains, you will see, and you will hear the blast of the trumpet.
Talaivan kaawm e taminaw hoi talai dawk kaawm e taminaw, monnaw dawkvah mitnout a ung awh toteh, nangmouh ni na hmu awh han. Mongka ueng toteh nangmouh ni na thai awh han.
4 For the Lord says this to me: I will be quiet, and I will consider in my place, as the light at midday is clear, and as a cloud of dew in the day of the harvest.
Bangkongtetpawiteh BAWIPA ni, kai koe a dei e teh, duem ka o teh, kanî raeng dawk hoi ka ang poung e khumbei patetlah thoseh, canga tue kâannae tueng koehoi tadamtui kabawt sak e tâmai patetlah thoseh, ka onae hmuen koehoi ka khet han telah ati.
5 For before the harvest, all was flourishing. And it will spring forth with an untimely completion, and its little branches will be pruned with a curved blade. And what is left over will be cut away and shaken off.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a tue a pha hoehnahlan a pei ka pei niteh, a pei teh kahmin e a paw lah ao toteh, a dawnnaw hah ramalongkawi hoi bouk vaiteh, a kangnaw hai koung bouk teh tâkhawng lah ao.
6 And together they will be abandoned to the birds of the mountains and to the wild beasts of the earth. And the birds will be continuously on them in the summer, and all the wild beasts of the earth will winter over them.
Hotnaw pueng teh, mon vah moi kacate tavanaw hoi talai dawk e saringnaw hanelah ka cawi sak han. Moi ka cat e tavanaw ni ahnimae van vah, kompawi tue a loum sak awh vaiteh, talai dawk e saring pueng ni ahnimae van vah kasik tue a loum sak awh han.
7 In that time, a gift will be carried to the Lord of hosts, from a people divided and torn apart, from a terrible people, after whom there has been no other, from an apprehensive nation, apprehensive and downtrodden, whose land the rivers have ruined, and it will be carried to the place of the name of the Lord of hosts, to mount Zion.
Hate tueng dawkvah, ka rasang ni teh a tak kâpi e miphun, kahnai kahlat kaawm e taminaw ni taki e miphun, palangnaw kamphinae koe e talai dawk kaawm ni teh a tha kaawm reprep ka coungroe e miphun teh, kalvan ransanaw e BAWIPA min onae Zion mon dawk, ayawmpoehnonaw hah a sin awh han.
