Isaiah 47
1 Go down and sit in the dust, virgin daughter of Babylon. Sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of Babylonia! No longer will people call you gentle and delicate.
Babylon chanu theng hungsuh in, chule vutvai lah’a touvin. Ajeh iham itileh laltouna’a natouna nikho ho kichaiya ahitai. Vo Babylon chanu, nangma itih’a jong dei’un, lungnem le kidang dehset leng chanu nakiti kiti talou hel ding ahitai.
2 Go to work grinding flour with millstones. Remove your veil. Strip off your skirt, bare your legs, wade through rivers.
Sumhei song gihtah ho chu la’n lang chule chang chu kigoi tan. Na pon lukhuh kiho doh’in, chule na ponchol chu kihodoh inlang miho muthei jin kilangdoh in.
3 You will be seen naked; what should be kept private will be shamefully exposed. I will take vengeance—I won't spare anyone.
Sagoh keova naum’a chule jachat umtah’a na kihal ding ahije. Keiman khotona neilou hella keiman nachunga phuba kalah ding ahi.
4 Our Redeemer—his name is the Lord Almighty—is the Holy One of Israel.
Ei-Huhhingpau hi Israel Athengpa chu ahi jengin, amin chu Van munhoa um Pakai Sepaite ahiuve.
5 Sit quietly, and go into the darkness, daughter of Babylonia. Never again will you be called queen of all kingdoms.
Vo Babylon mel hoinu, tun muthim lah’a touvin lang, thip beh in um'in. Nangma Lengam jouse Lengnu tia na kihekit talou helding ahitai.
6 I was angry with my people, and I abandoned those who belonged to me. I handed them over to you. But you didn't show them mercy—you even mistreated old people.
Ajeh chu Keima ka lhenchomte chunga kalung ahan jeh’a, amaho hi nangma ka gimbolsah’a, na khutna kana pehdoh hija ahi. Hinla nangma Babylon’in achunguva khotona nachan tapon, nangman upa tah ho jong nana bolsen ahi.
7 You said, “I will reign forever as the eternal queen.” But you didn't think about what was coming; you didn't remember what would happen to you in the end.
Nangman ‘keima vannoi pum pia lengnua kapan jing ding ahi,’natin ahi. Nangman nachon chan ho nung gelkitna naneipon, hiho chun ipi ahin lhut ding ham tijong na geldohpoi.
8 Now listen to this, you sensual woman, sitting there so sure of yourself, saying to yourself, “I am supreme—there's nobody besides me. I shall never be a widow or experience the loss of my children.”
Nomsa’a kitha ol le ima asuboi ding neiluva kigel, nopsahna ngailua leng gam, hiche hi ngaiton. Nangman, ‘Keima bou hi kahitai, chule adang koima aumtapoi. Keima meithai kahi lou hel ding, chule kachate jong manglou diu ahi’ tin naseije.
9 But both these things will happen to you in quick succession! In just one day you will lose your children and become a widow. You will have this experience in its totality, in spite of all your witchcraft, in spite of all your magic spells.
Doi them nahina le ailhim them nahi jeng vanga, hetman lou kah’a meithai le nachate manthaina ding, ani gella thonlouva, nachunga hung lhung ding ahitai.
10 You put your trust in your evil actions, saying “No one can see what I'm doing.” Your wisdom and knowledge seduced you, and you told yourself, “I am supreme—there's nobody besides me.”
Na gitlou engsetna koiman ei mupoi, tia bit keija um dinga kigel’a nahi. Hinla nachihna le nahetna chun napui mang ahin, chule ‘Keibou kahi, adang aum tapoi, tia nasei ahi.
11 Evil is going to strike you, and you won't be able to magic it away. Disaster will fall on you that you can't stop by paying a ransom. Destruction will suddenly hit you that you weren't expecting.
Hitia hi manthaina chun nahin phah ding, chule hichu nangman iti nama jongle nanan jou lou hel ding ahitai. Mahthahna chun nahin lon vuh khum ding, chuteng nangma nahung doh theina ding jong na kiboldoh jou lou hel ding ahi. Na kigin louhel petna hahsat nan phulou helouva nahin phah ding ahi.
12 So keep going with your magic spells and all your witchcraft, which you have worked at since you were young. Maybe you'll be successful, maybe you'll terrify people!
Tunna ai’lhim themna ho’u chu mangcha tem’in! Hiche kum ho sunga namit-phel doi choi hou, kum hijat chengsea ho chu mangcha temu’vin! Thilpha phabep beh aboldoh maitheiju hichume. Hicheho chun koi ham khat na kikichatsah theiju ahi.
13 All the advice you've received has worn you out! Where are your astrologers, those who look to the stars for guidance, who give you their predictions every month? Let them stand up and save you from what's coming down on you!
Thumopna nakimu ho jouse hin nasuh chol bep’u ahi. Na Ashi lekhathemho jou seu, lhaseh’a thil hung lhung ding seiho chu, hoilamba gei’uva hitam? Amaho chu hung ding doh’u hen chule khonunga ahung lhung dinga konin nahuhdoh’u hen.
14 But look at them! They're like stubble that fire burns up completely—they can't even save their own lives from the flames. This is no fire to sit beside and grow warm!
Hinla amaho chu meiya kihal changpol tobangbep ahiuvin; meikouva konna amaho tah kihuh doh jou lou ding ahiuve. Ama hoa konna panpina imacha nakimu lou hel dingu, amei tinau muna jong lumsahna dinga toujong ngailouva ahitai.
15 All those people you've worked with, all those you've traded with from when you were young—they will all go their own way, nobody will come and save you.
Chule nagol ho jouse chu, nachapan laiya patna nakivei chankhom piho chu nakanau kijah mosah’uva, alampi cheh’uva kiche mang diu, napen aw jong kijah mosah ding ahitauve.
