Nahum 2
1 He is come up that shall destroy before thy face, that shall keep the siege: watch the way, fortify thy loins, strengthen thy power exceedingly.
Ka raphoe hane tami teh na hmalah a pha toe. Nange rapanim hah ring leih. Na keng hah caksak nateh tha kâ lat leih.
2 For the Lord hath rendered the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel: because the spoilers have laid them waste, and have marred their vine branches.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut teh Isarelnaw e a lentoenae patetlah Jakop e a lentoenae hah ao sak toe. Ka raphoe e taminaw ni Jakop e catoun, a raphoe teh, ahnie a cakang hai koung a raphoe toe.
3 The shield of his mighty men is like fire, the men of the army are clad in scarlet, the reins of the chariot are flaming in the day of his preparation, and the drivers are stupefied.
Athakaawme taminaw ni ka paling e saiphei a patuep awh teh ka paling e khohna a kho awh. Ranglengnaw hah tahloi hoi laklak a ang teh, tahroenaw teh thouk a kâroe awh.
4 They are in confusion in the ways, the chariots jostle one against another in the streets: their looks are like torches, like lightning running to and fro.
Ranglengnaw teh cahucahu kacailah lam dawk atunglah, akalah a yawng awh. Hmaito patetlah a paling teh sumpa patetlah a yawng awh.
5 He will muster up his valiant men, they shall stumble in their march: they shall quickly get upon the walls thereof: and a covering shall be prepared.
Ransanaw a hroecoe teh ahnimouh ni ayânaw dei a tanawt awh. Khorapan koe karanglah a cei awh teh ramvengnae khu a sak awh.
6 The gates of the rivers are opened, and the temple is thrown down to the ground.
Tui longkha a kamawng teh siangpahrang im a rawk toe. Nineveh tanglanaw e a khohna a rading pouh teh,
7 And the soldier is led away captive: and her bondwomen were led away mourning as doves, murmuring in their hearts.
bakhu patetlah khui laihoi lungtabue a ratup awh.
8 And as for Ninive, her waters are like a great pool, but the men flee away. They cry: Stand, stand, but there is none that will return back.
Ayan hoiyah Nineveh khopui teh tuinawk patetlah doeh ao. Atuteh tui a lawng toe, kangdout awh, kangdout awh telah kahram nakunghai apinihai kamlang sin hoeh.
9 Take ye the spoil of the silver, take the spoil of the gold: for there is no end of the riches of all the precious furniture.
Ngun lawm awh. Sui hai lawm awh. Ngai kawi e hnopainaw suitabu thung e rasa teh baw thai hoeh.
10 She is destroyed, and rent, and torn: the heart melteth, and the knees fail, and all the loins lose their strength: and the faces of them all are as the blackness of a kettle.
Khopui teh luengpalueng lah ao. Hnopai awm hoeh. Tami kingdi. Khoca pueng teh a lungpout awh, khokpakhu kâkhawng lahoi a keng a pataw awh teh, minhmai ka tamang lah ao awh.
11 Where is now the dwelling of the lions, and the feeding place of the young lions, to which the lion went, to enter in thither, the young lion, and there was none to make them afraid?
Sendek a onae hmuen, sendek a canae hmuen, sendek canaw ni apihai kâtaket sak laipalah a onae hmuen teh na maw ao.
12 The lion caught enough for his whelps, and killed for his lionesses: and he filled his holes with prey, and his den with rapine.
Sendek ni a canaw hanelah a kei teh, a manunaw hanelah a lahuen a kara pouh teh, a kâkhu dawk a kei e moi hoi akawi sak.
13 Behold I come against thee, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will burn thy chariots even to smoke, and the sword shall devour thy young lions: and I will cut off thy prey out of the land, and the voice of thy messengers shall be heard no more.
Ransahu BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, nange avanglah ka o han. Nange ranglengnaw hah hmai koung ka sawi han. Na sendeknaw hah tahloi hoi ka thei han. Na lawp e hnonaw talai dawk hoi ka takhoe han. Nange na patounenaw e lawk hah apinihai bout thai mahoeh toe.
