< Joel 2 >
1 Blowe the trumpet in Zion, and shoute in mine holy mountaine: let all the inhabitants of the lande tremble: for the day of the Lord is come: for it is at hand.
Zion ah tuki te ueng uh lamtah ka hmuencim tlang ah yuhui uh. BOEIPA kah khohnin he a yoei rhep la a pai dongah diklai khosa boeih loh tlai uh saeh.
2 A day of darkenesse, and of blacknesse, a day of cloudes, and obscuritie, as the morning spred vpon the mountaines, so is there a great people, and a mighty: there was none like it from the beginning, neither shalbe any more after it, vnto the yeeres of many generations.
Hmaisuep neh khohmuep hnin, cingmai neh yinnah hnin loh pilnam boeiping neh pilnu kah tlang ah mincang bangla yaal coeng. Te bang te khosuen lamloh ana om noek pawt tih a hnukkah thawnpuei neh cadilcahma tue ah khaw khoep mahpawh.
3 A fire deuoureth before him, and behinde him a flame burneth vp: the land is as the garden of Eden before him, and behinde him a desolate wildernesse, so that nothing shall escape him.
A maelhmai ah hmai loh a hlawp tih a hnukah khaw hmaisai a hlawp. A mikhmuh kah te diklai Eden dum bangla om tih a hnuk tah khosoek khopong la om. Te dongah anih lamkah loeihnah khaw om pawh.
4 The beholding of him is like the sight of horses, and like the horsemen, so shall they runne.
A mueimae tah marhang mueimae bangla om tih marhang caem bangla yong uh tangloeng.
5 Like the noyse of charrets in the toppes of the mountaines shall they leape, like the noyse of a flame of fire that deuoureth the stubble, and as a mightie people prepared to the battel.
Tlang dong sokah leng ol bangla om. Divawt aka hlawp hmaihluei hmai ol bangla sundaep uh. Pilnu pilnam bangla caemtloek rhong a pai.
6 Before his face shall the people tremble: all faces shall gather blackenesse.
Amih mikhmuh ah pilnam loh kilkul tih maelhmai boeih muhut la a om pah.
7 They shall runne like strong men, and goe vp to the wall like men of warre, and euery man shall goe forward in his wayes, and they shall not stay in their paths.
Hlangrhalh bangla yong uh tih caemtloek hlang bangla vongtung dongah luei uh. Te vaengah hlang te amah longpuei ah pongpa uh tih a caehlong te ken uh pawh.
8 Neither shall one thrust another, but euery one shall walke in his path: and when they fall vpon the sword, they shall not be wounded.
Te vaengah hlang loh a manuca te a nen uh moenih. Hlang he amah longpuei ah ni a pongpa uh. Pumcumnah hnuk ah mueluem mueh la cungku uh.
9 They shall runne to and from in the citie: they shall runne vpon the wall: they shall clime vp vpon the houses, and enter in at ye windowes like ye thiefe.
Khopuei kah vongtung soah khaw cu uh tih yong uh. Im lamkhaw bangbuet lamloh yoeng uh tih hlanghuen bangla kun uh.
10 The earth shall tremble before him, ye heauens shall shake, the sunne and the moone shalbe darke, and the starres shall withdraw their shining,
A mikhmuh ah diklai khaw tlai tih, vaan khaw hinghuen. Khomik neh hla hmuep tih aisi khaw a aa khum.
11 And the Lord shall vtter his voyce before his hoste: for his hoste is very great: for he is strog that doeth his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible, and who can abide it?
BOEIP A loh A caem mikhmuh ah a ol a huel. A lambong khaw yet muep ngawn, a ol aka vai tah pilnu ngawn, BOEIPA kah khohnin tah len tih rhih om tangkik pai. Te dongah te te aka noeng tah unim?
12 Therefore also now the Lord sayth, Turne you vnto me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning,
Tedae BOEIPA kah olphong om pataeng coeng. Kai taengla na thinko boeih neh, yaehnah nen khaw, rhahnah nen khaw, rhaengsaelung nen khaw ha mael laeh.
13 And rent your heart, and not your clothes: and turne vnto the Lord your God, for he is gratious, and mercifull, slowe to anger, and of great kindnes, and repenteth him of the euill.
Te dongah na thinko mah phen uh lamtah na himbai phen uh boeh. Na Pathen BOEIPA taengla mael uh laeh. Amah tah thinphoei lungvatnah la om. Thintoek a ueh tih sitlohnah a yet dongah boethae khui lamloh ko a hlawt.
14 Who knoweth, is he wil returne and repent and leaue a blessing behinde him, euen a meate offring, and a drinke offring vnto ye Lord your God?
Mael tih ko a hlawt khaw ulong a ming. A hnukah na Pathen BOEIPA hamla yoethennah khocang neh tuisi a paih mai khaming.
15 Blowe the trumpet in Zion, sanctifie a fast, call a solemne assembly.
Zion ah tuki te ueng uh, yaehnah te ciim uh, pahong te hoe uh.
16 Gather the people: sanctifie the congregation, gather the elders: assemble the children, and those that sucke the breastes: let the bridegrome go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her bride chamber.
Pilnam te coi uh, hlangping te ciim uh. Patong rhoek khaw coi lamtah camoe neh rhangsuk dongkah cahni khaw coi uh laeh. Yulokung khaw a imkhui lamloh, vasanu khaw a imkhui lamloh moe laeh saeh.
17 Let the Priestes, the ministers of the Lord weepe betweene the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O Lord, and giue not thine heritage into reproche that the heathen should rule ouer them. Wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?
Ngalha laklo neh hmueihtuk taengah BOEIPA kah tueihyoeih khosoih rhoek te rhap uh saeh. Te vaengah, “BOEIPA aw na pilnam te rhen mai, na rho te kokhahnah la, amih lakli kah namtom taengah la khueh boel mai. Balae tih pilnam taengah, 'Amih kah Pathen te melae?' a ti eh?,” ti saeh.
18 Then will the Lord be ielous ouer his land, and spare his people.
BOEIP A tah a khohmuen ham thatlai vetih a pilnam soah lungma a ti pueng ni.
19 Yea, the Lord wil answere and say vnto his people, Beholde, I will send you corne, and wine, and oyle, and you shalbe satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproche among the heathen,
BOEIP A loh a doo vetih a pilnam taengah, “Kai loh nangmih ham cangpai neh misur thai khaw, situi khaw kan tueih vetih te te na cung bitni. Nangmih te namtom taengah kokhahnah la koep kang khueh mahpawh.
20 But I will remooue farre off from you the Northren armie, and I will driue him into a land, barren and desolate with his face toward the East sea, and his end to the vtmost sea, and his stinke shall come vp, and his corruption shall ascend, because he hath exalted himselfe to do this.
Tlangpuei te nangmih taeng lamloh kan lakhla sak vetih anih te rhamrhae neh khopong hmuen la ka heh ni. A hmai kah khocuk tuipuei duela, a bawtnah ah khobawt tuipuei duela a rhongbo cet vetih a thanghapbo cet ni. A saii ham khaw pantai ngawn coeng.
21 Feare not, O land, but be glad, and reioyce: for the Lord wil do great things.
Khohmuen nang rhih boeh, omngaih lamtah kohoe sak. BOEIPA loh a saii ham te a rhoeng sak.
22 Be not afrayde, ye beastes of the fielde: for the pastures of the wildernesse are greene: for the tree beareth her fruite: the figge tree and the vine do giue their force.
Khohmuen rhamsa na rhih uh voel mah pawh, khosoek toitlim te poe coeng, thing te a thaih cuen ni. Thaibu neh misur khaw a thadueng sai ni.
23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and reioyce in the Lord your God: for he hath giuen you the rayne of righteousnes, he wil cause to come downe for you the rayne, euen the first raine, and the latter raine in the first moneth.
Zion ca rhoek na Pathen BOEIPA dongah omngaih uh lamtah kohoe uh. Duengnah dongah cangpa tue te nang taengah m'paek. Nang hamla cangpa khonal neh lamhma kah tlankhol te kan suntlak bitni.
24 And the barnes shalbe full of wheate, and the presses shall abound with wine and oyle.
Cangtilhmuen ah cangpai bae vetih va-am ah misur thai neh situi baepet ni.
25 And I will render you the yeeres that the grashopper hath eaten, the canker worme and the caterpiller and the palmer worme, my great hoste which I sent among you.
Nangmih taengah kaisih, lungang, phol neh kamah kah lungmul caem muep kan tueih ti a caak te nang taengah a kum kum ah kan thuung bitni.
26 So you shall eate and be satisfied and praise the Name of the Lord your God, that hath dealt marueilously with you: and my people shall neuer be ashamed.
A caak khaw na caak uh vetih na hah uh bitni. Te vaengah na Pathen BOEIPA ming te thangthen uh. Amah loh nangmih ham khobaerhambae la a saii dongah ka pilnam he kumhal duela yah a poh.
27 Ye shall also know, that I am in the middes of Israel, and that I am the Lord your God and none other, and my people shall neuer be ashamed.
Kai tah Israel khui kah la nan ming uh bitni. Te dongah kai he nangmih kah Pathen BOEIPA coeng tih a tloe om pawh. Ka pilnam tah kumhal duela yahpok mahpawh.
28 And afterward will I powre out my Spirit vpon all flesh: and your sonnes and your daughters shall prophecie: your olde men shall dreame dreames, and your yong men shall see visions,
He phoeiah om vetih pumsa cungkuem soah ka mueihla he ka lun ni. Na capa rhoek neh na canu rhoek tonghma uh ni. Nangmih kah patong rhoek loh mang a man uh vetih nangmih kah tongpang rhoek loh olphong a hmuh uh ni.
29 And also vpon the seruants, and vpon the maydes in those dayes wil I powre my Spirit.
Te khohnin ah salpa so neh sal huta soah pataeng ka mueihla ka lun ni.
30 And I will shewe wonders in the heauens and in the earth: blood and fire, and pillars of smoke.
Vaan ah kopoekrhai, diklai ah khaw thii neh hmai neh hmaikhu tung ka tueng sak ni.
31 The sunne shalbe turned into darkenesse, and the moone into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come.
Boeilen neh rhih om BOEIPA kah khohnin a pai tom vaengah khomik te hmaisuep la, hla te thii la poeh ni.
32 But whosoeuer shall call on the Name of the Lord, shalbe saued: for in mount Zion, and in Ierusale shalbe deliuerance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant, whom the Lord shall call.
BOEIP A ming aka khue boeih te loeih ni. Zion tlang neh Jerusalem ah loeihnah om ni. Te te BOEIPA loh a thui coeng dongah BOEIPA loh rhaengnaeng khuikah te khaw a khue.
