< Zechariah 12 >
1 A prophecy: This message came from the Lord concerning Israel, a declaration of the Lord who spread out the heavens, who laid the foundations of the earth, and who placed the breath of life within human beings.
Kalvan hoi talai du kasakkung, tami hoi athung e muitha kasakkung, BAWIPA ni Isarelnaw hanlah a dei e lawk teh,
2 Look! I am going to make Jerusalem like a cup containing alcoholic drink that will make all the surrounding nations stagger like drunks when they come to attack Judah and Jerusalem.
Kai ni Jerusalem khopui petkalup lah kaawm e miphun pueng hanlah, yamuhrinae manang lah ka coung sak han. Jerusalem a kalup awh navah, Judah ram hai hottelah ao van han.
3 On that day I will make Jerusalem like a heavy rock to all peoples. Anyone who tries to lift the rock will injure themselves badly. All the nations will join together to attack Jerusalem.
Hatnae tueng dawkvah, hote khopui teh miphun pueng hanlah, talung ka ri e lah ka coung sak han. Hote talung katawmnaw pueng teh hote talung ni reppasei lah a ten awh han. Talai taminaw pueng ni Jerusalem khopui tuk hanlah a kamkhueng awh han.
4 On that day I will make every horse panic-stricken and every rider go mad, declares the Lord, but I will watch over the people of Judah while I blind all the horses of their enemies.
BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, hatnae tueng dawk kaawm e marang naw pueng kalue sak hanelah, marangransanaw pueng hah pathu sak han. Judah miphun ka khet vaiteh, alouke miphunnaw koe kaawm e marang naw a mit dawn sak hanelah ka rek han.
5 Then the families of Judah will say to themselves, the people of Jerusalem are strong in their God, the Lord Almighty.
Jerusalem Cathut ransahu BAWIPA lahoi ahnimouh teh kaie kathaonae doeh telah Judah bawinaw ni a lungthung vah ati awh han.
6 On that day I will make the families of Judah like burning coals in a wood, like a flaming torch in a field of straw. They will burn up to the right and to the left all the surrounding peoples, while the people of Jerusalem will live safely in their city.
Hat navah, Judah bawinaw teh thinghong dawk e takhuen patetlah thoseh, Cabong dawk e hmai talî patetlah thoseh, ka o sak vaiteh, avoilah aranglah kaawm e miphunnaw pueng hmai a kak awh han. Jerusalem khopui hai amae hmuen dawk pou ao han.
7 The Lord will give the victory to the soldiers of Judah first so that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem shall not be greater than that of Judah.
BAWIPA ni Judah rimnaw hmaloe a rungngang han. Hatdawkvah, Devit e catoun bawilennae hoi Jerusalem khocanaw e bawilennae teh Judah e hloilah kâphokâlen awh mahoeh.
8 On that day the Lord will place a shield around the people of Jerusalem so that even the clumsiest of them will be as skilled a warrior as David, and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of the Lord who leads them.
Hat hnin dawkvah, BAWIPA ni Jerusalem khocanaw a okhai vaiteh, hatnae tueng nah, a tha kayoun naw hah Devit patetlah thoseh, Devit canaw teh Cathut patetlah thoseh, ahnimae hmalah BAWIPA e kalvantami patetlah ao awh han.
9 On that day I will start destroying all those nations that attack Jerusalem.
Hatnae hnin dawk, Jerusalem khopui tuk hanlah kamthaw e miphunnaw hah raphoe hanlah tha ka patho han.
10 I will pour out a spirit of grace and prayer on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. They will look at me whom they pierced, and they will wail in grief over him, mourning as for an only child, weeping bitterly as for a firstborn.
Lungmanae hoi ratoum ngainae hah Devit imthung hoi Jerusalem khocanaw lathueng vah, kai ni ka awi vaiteh, amamouh ni a thut e kai na hmu awh han. A na pa ni tawntoe e capa a khuikakhai e patetlah ahni hanelah a khuika awh han. A na pa ni camin hanelah a lungmathoe e patetlah a lungmathoe awh han.
11 On that day the mourning in Jerusalem will be as great as the mourning in Hadad-Rimmon in the valley of Megiddo.
Megiddo yawn dawk Hadadrimmon kho vah a khuika e patetlah hat navah, Jerusalem kho dawk puenghoi khuikanae kaawm han.
12 The land will mourn, every family alone: the family house of David alone and their women by themselves, the families of Nathan,
Khoram pueng ni a miphun lengkaleng alouklouk lah, a khuika awh han. Devit e imthungnaw alouklah, ahnimae a yunaw alouklah, Nathan e imthungnaw alouklah, ahnimae a yunaw alouklah,
Levih e imthungnaw alouklah, a yunaw alouklah, Shimei e imthungnaw alouklah, a yunaw alouklah,
14 and all the surviving families and their women, each group mourning alone by themselves.
Kacawie miphunnaw pueng hah alouklah, a yunaw hah alouklah, alouklouk lah lengkaleng a khuika awh han.
