< Isaiah 5 >
1 Now will I sing to my beloued a song of my beloued to his vineyarde, My beloued had a vineyarde in a very fruitefull hill,
Ka pahren e misur takha hah, pahrennae la hoi a hmalah ka sak haw nei. Talai hawinae koe mon vah, ka pahren e misur takha buet touh ao.
2 And hee hedged it, and gathered out the stones of it, and he planted it with the best plants, and hee builte a towre in the middes thereof, and made a wine presse therein: then hee looked that it should bring foorth grapes: but it brought foorth wilde grapes.
Talai a tai teh, talungnaw a takhoe hnukkhu, kahawipoung e misurkung hah a ung. Takha thung ring nahanelah imrasang hai a sak teh, misur paw a paw han titeh a ngaihawi. Hatei, misur kaphawk bo oun ka paw aw.
3 Now therefore, O inhabitants of Ierusalem and men of Iudah, iudge, I pray you, betweene me, and my vineyarde.
Atuvah, Oe Judah khocanaw, Jerusalem khocanaw, kai hoi kaie misur takha rahak vah, laidei awh haw.
4 What coulde I haue done any more to my vineyard that I haue not done vnto it? why haue I looked that it should bring foorth grapes, and it bringeth foorth wilde grapes?
Kai takha koe hawinae ka sak thai nahlangva, ka sak hoeh rae ao ma aw. Misurpaw a paw han doeh titeh, ka ngaihawi nah, bangkongmaw misur kaphawk lah a paw vaw.
5 And nowe I will tell you what I will do to my vineyarde: I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten vp: I will breake the wall thereof, and it shall be troden downe:
Atu thai haw. Kaie misur takha dawk ka sak hane kawi na patue avai. Tumdumnae rui payang e hah, ka raphoe vaiteh, ayâ alouke ni a ca awh han. Tumdumnae amhru tapang hah ka raphoe vaiteh, ayâ alouke ni a coungroe awh han.
6 And I will laye it waste: it shall not be cut, nor digged, but briers, and thornes shall growe vp: I will also commande the cloudes that they raine no raine vpon it.
Takha hah khoeroe ka raphoe han. Apinihai pathoup mahoeh. Apinihai vulai mahoeh. Pâkhing aphunphun a paw han. Hote takha dawk kho a rak hoeh nahanelah, kâ bout a poe han.
7 Surely the vineyard of the Lord of hostes is the house of Israel, and the men of Iudah are his pleasant plant, and hee looked for iudgement, but beholde oppression: for righteousnesse, but beholde a crying.
Rasahu BAWIPA e misur takha teh, Isarelnaw lah ao teh, Judahnaw teh Bawipa ni a ngai e misurkung lah ao. Bawipa ni lannae hah a ngaihawi ei, khenhaw! kâtheinae hoi doeh akawi. Lannae yueng lah hramkinae doeh kaawm.
8 Woe vnto them that ioyne house to house, and laye fielde to fielde, till there bee no place, that ye may be placed by your selues in the mids of the earth.
A hmuen houng sak laipalah, im touh hnukkhu im touh a pakaw awh teh, laikawk buet touh hnukkhu buet touh ka pakaw e teh a yawthoe. Hote laikawk lungui vah, nangmouh duengdoeh na kaawm awh han.
9 This is in mine cares, saith the Lord of hostes. Surely many houses shall be desolate, euen great, and faire without inhabitant.
Rasahu BAWIPA ni kai koe a dei e teh, atangcalah, moikapap e imnaw heh, tami kingkadi e lah awm vaiteh, im kalennaw dawkvah, kaawm hane awm laipalah ao han.
10 For ten acres of vines shall yelde one bath, and the seede of an homer shall yelde an ephah.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Misurtakha ekah hra touh dawk misurtui um touh dueng a tâco vaiteh, cati hmuen hra touh tunae dawk hoi hai hmuen touh dueng a tâco han.
11 Wo vnto them, that rise vp early to follow drunkennes, and to them that continue vntill night, till the wine doe inflame them.
Na kahma awh toe! Yamu nei hanelah, amom na thaw awh teh, tangmin totouh misurtui na parui awh.
12 And the harpe and viole, timbrel, and pipe, and wine are in their feastes: but they regard not the worke of the Lord, neither consider the worke of his handes.
Nangmae canei pawi koe ratoung, tamawi, cecak, vovit, hoi misurtui hoi akawi. BAWIPA e kut hoi sak e hno hai na hmawt awh hoeh.
13 Therefore my people is gone into captiuitie, because they had no knowledge, and the glorie thereof are men famished, and the multitude thereof is dried vp with thirst.
Hatdawkvah, ka taminaw panuenae ayoun dawkvah pâlei lah ao awh. Ahnimae bari kaawm e naw teh, a vonhlam awh. Ahnimae taminaw teh tui kahran hoi ao awh.
14 Therefore hell hath inlarged it selfe, and hath opened his mouth, without measure, and their glorie, and their multitude, and their pompe, and hee that reioyceth among them, shall descend into it. (Sheol )
Hatdawkvah, Phuen kho (Sheol) ni a ngainae a len sak teh, apâhni teh bangnue thai hoeh hane totouh a ang teh, Zion bawilennae hoi a taminaw teh, hrawang laihoi, ka lamtu e naw hoi reirei a kum awh han. (Sheol )
15 And man shalbe brought downe, and man shalbe humbled, euen the eyes of the proude shalbe humbled.
Tami teh pabo lah ao dawkvah, tami pueng teh a rahnoum awh han. Ka kâoupnaw e minhmai hai a rahnoum han.
16 And the Lord of hostes shalbe exalted in iudgement, and the holy God shalbe sanctified in iustice.
Ransahu BAWIPA teh, lawkcengnae lahoi tawm lah ao teh, Kathoung e Cathut teh, ama thoungnae hah lannae lahoi a kamnue sak han.
17 Then shall the lambes feede after their maner, and the strangers shall eate the desolate places of the fat.
Hatnavah, tucanaw teh, amamae pânae patetlah a pâ awh vaiteh a ca awh han. Dongdeng ka lamroenaw ni, tangrengnaw e caneinae hmuen koe, a canei awh han.
18 Woe vnto them, that draw iniquitie with cordes of vanitie, and sinne, as with cart ropes:
Payonnae hah laithoe hradang hoi ka sawn e tami, yon hah rangleng rui hoi sawn e patetlah ka sawn e taminaw teh a yawthoe awh.
19 Which say, Let him make speede: let him hasten his worke, that wee may see it: and let the counsell of the holy one of Israel draw neere and come, that we may knowe it.
Ahnimouh ni, kaimouh ni ka hmu awh nahanelah Bawipa ni karang sak naseh. A thaw hah karang tawk naseh. Kaimouh ni ka hmu awh nahanelah, Isarelnaw e kathounge Bawipa ni rek hnai naseh. Tho naseh telah ouk a dei awh.
20 Woe vnto them that speake good of euill, and euill of good, which put darkenes for light, and light for darkenes, that put bitter for sweete, and sweete for sowre.
Kathout hah kahawi, kahawi e hah kathout telah ka tet e tami, angnae hah hmonae, hmonae hah angnae, karadip hah kakhat, kakhat hah karadip ka tet e tami teh a yawthoe.
21 Woe vnto them that are wise in their owne eyes, and prudent in their owne sight.
Amamae mithmu dawk teh, amamouh hah tami lungkaangnaw, panuenae katawnnaw telah ka tet e tami teh a yawthoe.
22 Wo vnto them that are mightie to drinke wine, and to them that are strong to powre in strong drinke:
Misurtui neinae koe athakaawme taminaw hoi yamu sak kalawtnae koe athakaawme taminaw teh a yawthoe awh.
23 Which iustifie the wicked for a rewarde, and take away the righteousnesse of the righteous from him.
Ahnimouh teh, tadawngnae kecu dawk tami kathout hah tami kahawi telah ati teh, tami kalannaw e lannae law teh a takhoe awh.
24 Therefore as the flame of fire deuoureth the stubble, and as the chaffe is cosumed of the flame: so their roote shalbe as rottennesse, and their bud shall rise vp like dust, because they haue cast off the Lawe of the Lord of hostes, and contemned the word of the holy one of Israel.
Hatdawkvah, hmaipalai ni cakong hoi phoke a kak e patetlah ahnimae a tangpha teh, kahmawn e patetlah ao dawkvah, ahnimae a pei hai vaiphu patetlah mungpoung han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh teh ransahu BAWIPA e kâlawk hah a takhoe awh teh, Isarelnaw e kathoungpounge Bawipa ni a dei e naw hah banglahai noutna awh hoeh.
25 Therefore is the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people, and hee hath stretched out his hand vpon them, and hath smitten them that the mountaines did tremble: and their carkases were torne in the middes of the streetes, and for all this his wrath was not turned away, but his hande was stretched out still.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA teh a taminaw koe a lungkhuek teh, ahnimouh van a kut a dâw teh, runae a poe dawkvah, monnaw a kâhuet teh, ahnimae ronaw teh lamthungnaw dawk songnawng patetlah ao awh han.
26 And he will lift vp a signe vnto the nations a farre, and wil hisse vnto them from the ende of the earth: and beholde, they shall come hastily with speede.
Bawipa ni ahlanae hmuen koehoi a taminaw hanelah, mitnout a ung pouh teh, talai poutnae koe kaawm e naw hah pâhui laihoi a kaw. Hatnavah, khenhaw! Ahnimouh teh karang poung lah yawng laihoi a tho awh.
27 None shall faint nor fall among them: none shall slumber nor sleepe, neither shall the girdle of his loynes be loosed, nor the latchet of his shooes be broken:
Ahnimouh dawk ka tawn e awm hoeh. Thongmui kamthui laihoi ka tâlaw e hai awm hoeh. Ka ngam e hai awm hoeh. Ka ip e hai awm hoeh. Taisawm kâratham hoeh. Khokkhawmrui hai pet hoeh.
28 Whose arrowes shall be sharpe, and all his bowes bent: his horse hoofes shall be thought like flint, and his wheeles like a whirlewinde.
Ahnimae pala teh hruepatuecalah ao teh, licung teh sut patung e lah ao. Ahnimae marangnaw e khoktabeinaw teh, lungtaw hoi a kâvan telah pouk e lah ao teh, ahnimae taran tuknae ranglengnaw hai bongparui patetlah doeh ao awh.
29 His roaring shalbe like a lyon, and he shall roare like lyons whelpes: they shall roare, and lay holde of the praye: they shall take it away, and none shall deliuer it.
Ahnimae hramki lawk teh, sendek huk lawk hoi a kâvan teh, ahnimouh teh sendek patetlah a huk awh han. A rakoung e teh apinihai lawm thai mahoeh.
30 And in that day they shall roare vpon them, as the roaring of the sea: and if they looke vnto the earth, beholde darkenesse, and sorowe, and the light shalbe darkened in their skie.
Hot hnin vah, ahnimouh teh tuipui e cairing lawk patetlah a cairing awh han. Buetbuet touh ni hote ram hah khen pawiteh, khenhaw! hmonae hoi runae duengdoeh kaawm. Angnae teh hote ram dawk tâmai kecu king a hmo han.
