< Isaiah 33 >

1 Woe to thee that spoilest, and thou wast not spoiled; and that dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! When thou shalt cease to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; when thou shalt make an end of dealing treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.
Minawk mah parohaih tong vai ai, nang parokung, minawk mah athlaenghaih tong vai ai, nang minawk athlaeng kami, khosak na bing! Minawk amrosakhaih to na toengh naah, minawk mah nang to amrosak tih; minawk athlaenghaih to na toengh naah, minawk mah na thlaeng tih.
2 Jehovah, be gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: be their arm every morning, yea, our salvation in the time of trouble.
Aw Angraeng, kaicae hae tahmen raeh; nang khue ni kang zing o; akhawnbang kruek kaicae thacakhaih ah om ah loe, raihaih tue ah kaicae pahlonghaih ah om ah.
3 At the noise of the tumult the peoples fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered.
Lok tuenh pongah kaminawk loe cawnh o; nang thawk tahang naah acaeng kaminawk boih anghaeh o phang.
4 And your spoil shall be gathered [like] the gathering of the caterpillar: as the running of locusts shall they run upon it.
Nangmah nihcae amrosak naah loe nihcae to pakhuh naeh baktiah naeh o tih; pakhuhnawk ahnuk ahma angphet o baktih toengah, nihcae doeh ahnuk ahma cawn o tih.
5 Jehovah is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with justice and righteousness;
Anih loe hmuensang ah oh pongah, Angraeng loe kasangah pakoeh o; anih mah Zion to kamsoem ah lokcaekhaih hoi toenghaih hoiah koisak tih.
6 and he shall be the stability of thy times, the riches of salvation, wisdom and knowledge: the fear of Jehovah shall be your treasure.
Palunghahaih hoi panoekhaih loe na hing thung kacakah angdoethaih, thacak pahlonghaih ah om tih; Angraeng zithaih loe nang ih tacong ah om tih.
7 Behold, their valiant ones cry without; the messengers of peace weep bitterly.
Khenah, nihcae ih misahoih kaminawk loe tasa bangah qah o; angdaehhaih sah kami laicaehnawk doeh palungsethaih hoiah qah o.
8 The highways are desolate, the wayfaring man ceaseth. He hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.
Manglaih lampui loe pong sut boeh, loklam pazui kami doeh om o ai boeh; lokmaihaih to anih mah phraek moe, vangpuinawk doeh pahnawt sut boeh, mi kawbaktih mikhmai doeh khen ai boeh.
9 The land mourneth, it languisheth; Lebanon is ashamed, is withered; the Sharon is become as a desert, and Bashan and Carmel are stripped.
Prae loe palungset pongah zaek kang boeh; Lebanon doeh azathaih tong boeh moe, zai sut boeh; Sharon loe praezaek baktiah oh; Bashan hoi Karmel mah angmah hnik ih athaih to angmuensak boeh.
10 Now will I arise, saith Jehovah; now will I be exalted, now will I lift up myself.
Angraeng mah, Kai loe vaihi kang thawk moe, vaihi pakoeh ah ka oh han; vaihi kaimah hoi kaimah kang toengh tahang han.
11 Ye shall conceive dry grass, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath shall devour you [as] fire.
Nangcae loe tavai to na pomh o pongah, azen to na tapen o tih; nangmacae to kangh hanah, nang hah o ih takhi loe hmai baktiah oh om tih.
12 And the peoples shall be [as] burnings of lime, [as] thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.
Kaminawk loe hmai mah kang ih thlung kahmawn baktih, pakhruk moe, hmaitik ih soekhringkung baktiah om o tih.
13 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and ye that are near, acknowledge my might.
Kangthla ah kaom nangcae kaminawk, ka sak ih tok hae tahngai oh; kazoi ah kaom nangcae kaminawk, ka thacakhaih hae panoek oh.
14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath surprised the hypocrites: Who among us shall dwell with the consuming fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting flames?
Zion ah kaom kazae kaminawk loe zithaih hoiah oh o; angsah cop kaminawk loe dawnrai zithaih hoih oh o. Aicae thungah mi maw kamngaeh hmai thungah kaom thaih? Aicae thungah mi maw dungzan ah kakangh hmai thungah om thai tih?
15 — He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from taking hold of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil:
Katoeng loklam ah caeh moe, loktang lok thui kami, amsoem ai ah phoisa hnukhaih to koeh ai, bokhaih phoisa doeh talawk ai kami, kami hum hanah thuih ih lok to thaih han ai ah naa tamuep kami hoi kasae hnukhaih bangah mik pakhrip kami loe,
16 he shall dwell on high, the fortresses of the rocks shall be his high retreat; bread shall be given him, his water shall be sure.
hmuensang ah om tih; mae nui ih kacak sipae loe anih misa abuephaih ah om tih; anih han apet ai ah buh to paek tih, tui doeh kang pae mak ai.
17 Thine eyes shall see the King in his beauty; they shall behold the land that is far off.
Na mik mah Siangpahrang Hoihhaih to hnu tih; angthla parai prae doeh hnu tih.
18 Thy heart shall meditate on terror: Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers?
Zitthok hmuen to na poek naah, Ca tarik kami loe naa ah maw oh ving? Tamut cong kami loe naa ah maw oh ving? Kalen koek imsang toep kami loe naa ah maw oh ving boeh?
19 Thou shalt no more see the fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst comprehend, of a stammering tongue that cannot be understood.
Na panoek thai ai ih kathuk lok apae kami, thaih kop thai ai ih lok apae kami to na hnu mak ai boeh.
20 Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be pulled up, neither shall any of its cords be broken;
Aicae poihsakhaih vangpui, Zion to dan oh; tung maeto doeh angthui ai, qui maeto doeh apet ai, amtim han kaom ai kahni im ah kaom, amding rue ah ohhaih Jerusalem vangpui to na mik hoiah hnu tih.
21 but there Jehovah is unto us glorious, — a place of rivers, of broad streams: no galley with oars shall go there, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.
Lensawk Angraeng loe to vangpui ah aicae han vapui tui hoi vacong tuinawk angqumhaih kakawk ahmuen ah om tih; to ahmuen ah loe palong thoek kami hoi misatukhaih palong doeh caeh mak ai.
22 For Jehovah is our judge, Jehovah, our lawgiver, Jehovah, our king: he will save us.
Angraeng loe kaicae lokcaekkung ah oh, Angraeng loe kaicae han patukhaih lok paek kami ah oh; Angraeng loe kaicae ih Siangpahrang ah oh; kaicae loe anih mah pahlong tih.
23 Thy tacklings are loosed; they strengthen not the socket of their mast, they cannot spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey.
Nang ih qui to khramh o moe, kahni payanghaih qui to kacakah kom o ai pongah, kahni doeh payang o thai ai; to pongah hmuennawk to lomh o moe, amzet o; khokkhaem kaminawk mah doeh hmuenmae to lak pae o.
24 And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven [their] iniquity.
Zion vangpui ah kaom kaminawk mah, Ngan ka nat, tiah thui o mak ai; to vangpui thungah kaom kaminawk ih zaehaih to tahmen pae tih boeh.
