< Lamentations 2 >

1 How hath the Lord in his anger covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud! He hath cast down from the heavens unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger.
Pakai alunghan jal'in Jerusalem khopi hoitah chu muthim lhangkhalin atome. Isreal khopi hoi jouse vutvam asoh gam tan, vanchung sanga konin selhah in a um’e. Pakai a lunghan behseh jeh in ahou in jeng jong khoto na anei tapoi.
2 The Lord hath swallowed up all the dwellings of Jacob, and hath not spared; he hath thrown down in his wrath the strongholds of the daughter of Judah: he hath brought [them] down to the ground; he hath profaned the kingdom and the princes thereof.
Khotona beihel in Pakaiyin Isreal insung jouse a subeiyin, a lunghan nan Jerusalem kulpi len jouse a suchip gam’e. Aman aleng gam ule alengteu jong jum tahin tol jep nan anei gam tai.
3 He hath cut off in fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he hath withdrawn his right hand from before the enemy; and he burned up Jacob like a flaming fire, devouring round about.
Pakai lunghan na noi a Isreal thaneina jouse a mangthah gam tai. Galmi ten ahin delkhum nauva jong a huhdoh tapon ahi. Aman Isreal gam pumpi chu meikong in ahal lhah bang in ahal gam tan ahi.
4 He hath bent his bow like an enemy; he stood with his right hand as an adversary, and hath slain all that was pleasant to the eye: in the tent of the daughter of Zion, he hath poured out his fury like fire.
Aman agalmite bangin amite chung a athalpi kaosan akoiyin, agollhang hoilai jouse thagam ding in atha aje doh in ahi. Loupitah Jerusalem chunga alunghan na meikong bangin abunglhan ahi.
5 The Lord is become as an enemy: he hath swallowed up Israel; he hath swallowed up all her palaces; he hath destroyed his strongholds, and hath multiplied in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.
Pakaiyin Isrealte hi agalmi bang in a suhchip in, Aman loupitah Jerusalem chunga lungkham nale mitlhilon angahna beijin alhun khum sah’e.
6 And he hath violently cast down his enclosure as a garden; he hath destroyed his place of assembly: Jehovah hath caused set feast and sabbath to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger king and priest.
Aman houin jong honsunga buh kisa bang in a sulhun, Pakaiyin anikho thengho ahin, cholngah nikhoho le kut nikho thengho ahin suhmil thei leuvin asubei jin leng hole thempu ho jong a lungsat na noija a subei gam tan ahi.
7 The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath rejected his sanctuary; he hath given up into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces: they have made a noise in the house of Jehovah, as on the day of a set feast.
Pakaiyin amaicham jeng jong a nuse in, amuntheng jeng jong nahsah louvin akoiyin, Jerusalem lengpa inpi ho jong galmiho a pedoh’e. Amahon Pakai houin sung chu golnop kibolni bangin, o’thongje jun apoh chei choi jengun ahi.
8 Jehovah hath purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion: he hath stretched out the line, he hath not withdrawn his hand from destroying; and he hath made the rampart and the wall to lament: they languish together.
Khopi hoitah Jerusalem chu apal jouse suhlhah ding angaiton, aman atoh gon bang bang in a sulhu soh tan ahi. Hijeh chun pal hole palvum jouse jong amasanga alhusoh tan ahi.
9 Her gates are sunk into the ground; he hath destroyed and broken her bars. Her king and her princes are among the nations: the law is no [more]; her prophets also find no vision from Jehovah.
Jerusalem kelkot phung jouse jong tol ah aki jamchap soh helin, akel kot gol jouse jong aheh bongin a sumang soh tai. Jerusalem lengpa leh milen milal ho jong namtin vaipi laha akithe thangsoh taove. Danthu kitila abeitan Themgao hon jong Pakaiya konin mu anei tapouve.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, they keep silence; they have cast dust upon their heads, they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their head to the ground.
Khopi hoitah Jerusalem sunga lamkaiho tolla thip beh chan atouvun, a lujang uva leivui a kinuvin, khaodip pon akisil un, Jerusalem nungah jousen jum le jachat tothon a kaiku jeng taove.
11 Mine eyes are consumed with tears, my bowels are troubled; my liver is poured upon the earth, because of the ruin of the daughter of my people; because infant and suckling swoon in the streets of the city.
Kamitlhi twi kan tokahin ka kap jingin, ka lungsung achip lhatai. Kholai dunga chapang neocha ho athileh aki saisaijuva, kamite hahsatna khankho ka mu jeh in ka lungthim sung jong akap doh jeng in ahi.
12 They say to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? when they swoon as the wounded in the streets of the city; when they pour out their soul into their mothers' bosom.
Anuteu henga, Nehding le donding kangaichai tin athumun. Galsatpa galmunna akimavo bangin, kholai dunga thabeiyin apengun, anu teuvin apom nau chunga ahinkho’u abeithu thu jeng in ahi.
13 What shall I take to witness for thee? what shall I liken unto thee, daughter of Jerusalem? What shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, virgin daughter of Zion? For thy ruin is great as the sea: who will heal thee?
Hichan geija lungkhamna toh ho chunga ipi kasei thei ding ham? Vo Jerusalem Chanute, na lung hesoh naohi ipitoh kitekah ding ahm? Oh Zion chanu thengte iti ka lhamon jou ding na hiuvem? Ajeh chu nathoh gimnao hi twikhanglen bangin athuh jengin koiham na boldam jou diu vah?
14 Thy prophets have seen vanity and folly for thee; and they have not revealed thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee burdens of falsehood and causes of expulsion.
Na themgao teuvinla jouthu ngen leh ngolhoi thu ngen na seipeh uvin, na soh chan nauva konna nahung kiledoh theina diuva na chonsetnau phondoh peh ding la ago pouvin, chutia bolsang in jouthu ngen jeng apat thu uvin, thil dihlou ngen na kinep sah jiuvin ahi.
15 All that pass by clap [their] hands at thee; they hiss and shake their head at the daughter of Jerusalem: Is this the city which they called, The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?
Ache le avahle ho jousen na nel peh un khopi hoitah Jerusalem hi noise tah in atot chatvei khummun; “hiche hi vannoi leisetna khopi hoipen vannoi pumpin achoi sang uchu ham?” atiuve.
16 All thine enemies open their mouth against thee, they hiss and gnash the teeth: they say, We have swallowed [her] up; this is forsooth the day that we looked for: we have found, we have seen [it].
Nagalmite jousen na nelpeh un noise tah in anop nop na seikhumun, “suhmang dinga phat sottah ina nga’u chu tun ahung guilhung tai!” atiuve.
17 Jehovah hath done what he had devised; he hath fulfilled his word which he had commanded from the days of old: he hath thrown down, and hath not spared, and he hath caused the enemy to rejoice over thee; he hath set up the horn of thine adversaries.
Ahinlah hiche hi Pakaiyin a tohgon chu aboldoh ahin, hamsetna hunglhung dinga ana gonsa chu a suhbulhit ahi. Aman Jerusalem chu khotona beihella ana suhbei ahin, Aman agalmiteu chu amaho chunga thaneina anapeh ahi.
18 Their heart cried unto the Lord. O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a torrent day and night: give thyself no respite; let not the apple of thine eye rest.
Khopi hoi Jerusalem, Pakai angah hakan kap in, Sun le jan in vadung bangin na mitlhi long hen. kicholdo hihhel in; Na mitlhi lon jong tansah dan.
19 Arise, cry out in the night, in the beginning of the watches; pour out thy heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young children, who faint from hunger at the top of all the streets.
Janlai jong leh thouvin pengjah jengin. Pakai angah na lung ngaichat twi bangin lonsah in. Nachateu dingin na taonao khut chu domsang jing un, ajeh chu kholai dung jousea gilkela lhalhop gamsoh ahitaove.
20 See, Jehovah, and consider to whom thou hast done this! Shall the women eat their fruit, the infants that they nursed? Shall priest and prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
Vo Pakai hiche thoh gimna hi gel temin! Na chate hi hiti lom lom’a nabol jing ding hitam? Minuten a angsunga hung kitolchem, achateu kisanhi aneh jeng diu hitam? Thempu holeh themgao ho kisan hi Pakai houin sunga kithat jeng ding hitam?
21 The child and the old man lie on the ground in the streets; my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword: thou hast slain [them] in the day of thine anger; thou hast killed, thou hast not spared.
Ven, lamlen dunga kijam chap ho khu – Khangdong le tehseho, Numei chapang holeh pasal chapang ho, Galmite chemjam a thijeng ahiuve. Na lung han petin nathat gamin, Lungsetna beihelin nabol’e.
22 Thou hast called up, as on the day of a set feast, my terrors on every side; and in the day of Jehovah's anger there was none that escaped or remained: those that I have nursed and brought up hath mine enemy consumed.
Golvah nikhoa mipi nakou khom bangin, Muntin jousea tijatna nakoukhom’e. Pakai lunghanna nikhon, Koi macha a sohcha le ahingdoh a um poi. Kahin khoukhah le kahin puihoi chate chengse, Galmiten a thatgamsoh heltai.
