< Isaiah 36 >

1 And it came to pass in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, that Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them.
Hezekiah siangpahrang a bawinae kum 14 nah Assiria siangpahrang Sennacherib ni Judah ram kacakpounge kho kaawm e pueng hah a tuk teh a lawp.
2 And the king of Assyria sent Rab-shakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem, to king Hezekiah, with a strong force. And he stood by the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the highway of the fuller's field.
Hathnukkhu Assiria siangpahrang, Rabshakeh hah ransanaw moikapap hoi Lakhish kho hoi Hezekiah onae Jerusalem vah a patoun. Hote ransabawi a tho teh, kapâsukung e laikawk teng kaawm e lamthung lamtung e tuiim teng vah a kangdue.
3 Then came forth to him Eliakim the son of Hilkijah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph, the chronicler.
Hat toteh, Hilkiah capa Eliakim, cakathutkung Shebna hoi Asaph capa Joab cayin kuenkung tinaw teh ahni koe a cei awh.
4 And Rab-shakeh said to them, Say now to Hezekiah, Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria: What confidence is this in which thou trustest?
Rabshakeh ni ahnimouh koe a dei e teh, Hezekiah siangpahrang koe bout dei pouh awh. Ka lentoe e siangpahrang, Assiria siangpahrang ni nang teh bangpatet e kânguenae nama hettelah totouh na kâuep va.
5 Thou sayest, but it is a word of the lips, [There is] counsel and strength for war. Now on whom dost thou rely, that thou hast revolted against me?
Taran tuk thainae lamthung hoi tithainae kai koe ao na ti teh, ahrawnghrang lawk hah na dei. Kai taran hanelah apimouh na kâuep va.
6 Behold, thou reliest upon the staff of that broken reed, upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it goes into his hand, and pierces it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that rely upon him.
Khenhaw! Nang teh lawtkâkhoe e lungpum sonron tie Izip ram nahoehmaw na kâuep hah vaw. Hot ni teh ka kâuepnaw e kut hah a ruk pouh han. Hethateh, ama ka kâuep e naw pueng koe Izip siangpahrang Faro ni a kamnue sak e doeh.
7 And if thou say to me, We rely upon Jehovah our God: is it not he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has removed, saying to Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar?
Nang ni, kaimae BAWIPA Cathut doeh ka kâuep awh na tetpawiteh, Hezekiah teh, hete thuengnae khoungroe hmalah duengdoeh a bawk han, telah Judah khocanaw hoi Jerusalem khocanaw hah dei pouh nateh, hote Cathut e karasang hmuen puenghoi thuengnae khoungroe pueng hah a takhoe toe nahoehmaw.
8 And now engage, I pray thee, with my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
Atu kaie bawipa Assiria siangpahrang hoi lawkkam sak leih. Nang ni marang ransa kakhoutlah na ta thai e nah boi pawiteh, marang 2,000 touh na poe han.
9 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants? And thou reliest upon Egypt for chariots and for horsemen!
Nang ni taran tuknae marangnaw hane hoi marangransanaw hanelah, Izip ram hah na kâuep nakunghai, kaie bawipa e a thaw katawknaw thung dawk kathoungpounge patenghai bangtelamaw a tuk thai han vaw.
10 And now am I come up without Jehovah against this land to destroy it? Jehovah said to me, Go up against this land and destroy it.
Hothloilah kai teh, BAWIPA e kâ laipalah hete ram raphoe hanelah ka tho hoeh. Hete ram heh BAWIPA ni raphoe loe telah kai koe a dei toe telah ati telah atipouh.
11 And Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to Rab-shakeh, Speak, we pray thee, to thy servants in Syriac, for we understand it; and speak not to us in the Jewish [language] in the ears of the people that are upon the wall.
Hat toteh, Eliakim, Shebna, hoi Joab tinaw ni kaimouh ni ka thai thai awh nahanlah Aramaih lawk lahoi na dei pouh haw. Rapan dawk kaawmnaw ni a thai thai awh nahan, Judah lawk lahoi dei hanh loe telah Rabshakeh koe ati pouh awh.
12 And Rab-shakeh said, Is it to thy master and to thee that my master sent me to speak these words? Is it not to the men that sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own urine with you?
Hatei, Rabshakeh ni, ka bawipa ni nangmouh hoi nangmae bawipa koe doeh hete lawk dei hanelah na patoun. Amamae ei ka cat niteh, amamae payungtui ka net e rapan dawk kaawm e naw koe dei hanelah nahoeh atipouh.
13 And Rab-shakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jewish [language], and said, Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria!
Hathnukkhu, Rabshakeh ni a kangdue teh Judah lawk lahoi kacaipounglah hram laihoi a dei e teh, ka lentoe e Assyria siangpahrang ni a dei e lawk teh thai awh haw.
14 Thus says the king: Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you.
Siangpahrang ni hettelah a dei. Hezekiah ni nangmouh na dum hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnin ni nangmouh na rungngang thai mahoeh.
15 Neither let Hezekiah make you rely upon Jehovah, saying, Jehovah will certainly deliver us; this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
BAWIPA ni doeh na rungngang tih. Hete kho teh Assyria kut dawk phat mahoeh telah ati teh, nangmanaw hah BAWIPA na kâuep awh nahanlah kâ poe awh hanh.
16 Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus says the king of Assyria: Make peace with me and come out to me; and eat every one of his vine, and every one of his fig-tree, and drink every one the waters of his own cistern;
Hezekiah e lawk hah ngâi awh hanh. Assyria siangpahrang ni a dei e teh, kai hoi cungtalah roumnae awm sak awh. Kai koe tho awh.
17 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
Ka tho vaiteh, nangmanaw hah, namamae ram hoi kâvan e, cai, tui, misurtui apapnae koe, vaiyei hoi misur takha apapnae koe na thak hoehroukrak, namamae misur paw lengkaleng cat awh nateh, namamae tuikhu tui hah lengkaleng net awh.
18 Let not Hezekiah persuade you, saying, Jehovah will deliver us. Has any of the gods of the nations delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Hezekiah ni, BAWIPA ni maimouh na rungngang han doeh telah a dei e lahoi na dum awh nahanh seh. Ram pueng teh Assyria siangpahrang kut dawk hoi amamae ram hah a rungngang awh maw.
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim? and have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?
Hamath ram hoi Arpad kho cathutnaw teh nâne. Ahnimouh ni Samaria ram hah ka kut dawk hoi a rungngang awh maw.
20 Who are they among all the gods of these countries that have delivered their country out of my hand, that Jehovah should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
Hete ram pueng e cathutnaw hlakvah, bangpatet e cathut maw amae ram hah ka kut dawk hoi ka rungngang thai han. Jerusalem kho hah Jehovah ni ka kut dawk hoi bangtelamaw a rungngang thai han telah a ti.
21 And they were silent, and answered him not a word; for the king's command was, saying, Answer him not.
Hatei, ahni hah pato awh hanh awh telah siangpahrang ni ati dawkvah, apinihai pato laipalah lawkkamuem lah ao awh.
22 And Eliakim the son of Hilkijah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph, the chronicler, came to Hezekiah, with their garments rent, and told him the words of Rab-shakeh.
Hat toteh, Hilkiah capa siangpahrang im ka ring e Eliakim, cakathutkung Shebna, Asaph capa cungpam kakhoekung Joab tinaw teh, Hezekiah koe a cei awh teh, amamae khohna a phi awh teh, Rabshakeh ni dei e lawk hah ahni koe a dei pouh awh.
