< Zechariah 8 >

1 Againe the worde of the Lord of hostes came to me, saying,
Caempuei BOEIPA ol pai tih,
2 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I was ielous for Zion with great ielousie, and I was ielous for her with great wrath.
“Caempuei BOEIPA he ni a thui. Zion hamla ka thatlai. Thatlainah loh len tih kosi khaw dung. Anih hamla ka thatlai,” a ti.
3 Thus saith the Lord, I wil returne vnto Zion, and wil dwel in the mids of Ierusalem: and Ierusalem shalbe called a citie of trueth, and the Mountaine of the Lord of hostes, the holy Mountaine.
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Zion la ka mael vetih Jerusalem khui ah kho ka sak ni. Te vaengah Jerusalem te oltak khopuei, caempuei BOEIPA kah tlang, hmuencim tlang la a khue ni.
4 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, There shall yet olde men and olde women dwell in the streetes of Ierusalem, and euery man with his staffe in his hand for very age.
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Jerusalem toltung ah patong neh hamca koep kho a sak ni. Hlang he khohnin cup vetih a kut dongah a conghol a pom ni.
5 And the streetes of the citie shalbe full of boyes and girles, playing in the streetes thereof.
Khopuei toltung ah camoe bae vetih a toltung ah hutaca rhoek luem uh ni.
6 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Though it be vnpossible in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these dayes, should it therefore be vnpossible in my sight, sayth the Lord of hostes?
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Te khohnin ah tah pilnam meet he a mik ah khobaerhambae om sitoe cakhaw kai mik dongah khobaerhambae om aya? Caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
7 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Beholde, I will deliuer my people from the East countrey, and from the West countrey.
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Ka pilnam te khocuk khohmuen lamkah khaw, khotlak khohmuen lamkah khaw ka khang coeng ne.
8 And I wil bring them, and they shall dwel in the mids of Ierusalem, and they shalbe my people, and I wil be their God in trueth, and in righteousnes.
Amih te ka khuen vetih Jerusalem khui ah kho a sak uh ni. Kamah taengah pilnam la om uh vetih kai khaw amih taengah uepomnah neh, duengnah neh Pathen la ka om ni.
9 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Let your hands be strong, ye that heare in these dayes these words by the mouth of the Prophets, which were in the day, that the foundation of the House of the Lord of hostes was laide, that the Temple might be builded.
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Tonghma rhoek ka dong lamkah he ol he, tahae khohnin kah aka ya rhoek tah na kut moem uh laeh. Te tah bawkim sak hamla, caempuei BOEIPA im a toong khohnin vaengkah coeng ni.
10 For before these dayes there was no hire for man nor any hire for beast, neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men, euery one against his neighbour.
Te khohnin hmai ah tah hlang kah thapang om pawt tih rhamsa kah thapang a tal pah. Aka voei ham neh aka cet ham khaw ngaimongnah tal coeng. Hlang boeih te ka tueih coeng dongah hlang he a hui taengah rhal la om coeng.
11 But nowe, I wil not intreate the residue of this people as aforetime, saith the Lord of hostes.
Tedae tahae ah kai he pilnam a meet taengah hnukbuet tue bangla ka om moenih. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
12 For the seede shall be prosperous: the vine shall giue her fruite, and the ground shall giue her increase, and the heauens shall giue their dewe, and I will cause the remnant of this people to possesse all these things.
Rhoepnah misur tii te a thaih cuen vetih khohmuen loh a cangpai a paek ni. Vaan loh a buemtui a paek ni. He boeih he pilnam kah a meet taengah ka pang sak.
13 And it shall come to passe, that as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Iudah, and house of Israel, so wil I deliuer you, and ye shalbe a blessing: feare not, but let your hands be strong.
Namtom lakli ah rhunkhuennah la na om uh vanbangla, Judah imkhui neh Israel imkhui nang te kan khang van vetih yoethennah la na om ni. Rhih uh boeh, na kut mah caang sakuh.
14 For thus sayth the Lord of hostes, As I thought to punish you, when your fathers prouoked me vnto wrath, sayth the Lord of hostes, and repented not,
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Na pa rhoek loh kai taengah a thintoek uh dongah ni nangmih soah thaehuet hamla ka mangtaeng van. Caempuei BOEIPA loh, 'Ka yut mahpawh,’ a ti.
15 So againe haue I determined in these daies to doe well vnto Ierusalem, and to the house of Iudah: feare ye not.
He khohnin ah tah ka mael tih Jerusalem te then sak ham neh Judah imkhui te na rhih pawt ham ka mangtaeng coeng.
16 These are ye things that ye shall doe. Speake ye euery man the trueth vnto his neighbour: execute iudgement truely and vprightly in your gates,
He ol he vai uh. Hlang loh a hui taengah oltak mah thui saeh. Na vongka ah lai a tloek te rhoepnah dongah oltak neh tiktamnah la om saeh.
17 And let none of you imagine euill in your hearts against his neighbour, and loue no false othe: for all these are the things that I hate, saith the Lord.
Hlang loh a hui te a thinko nen pataeng boethae la taeng boel saeh. A honghi kah olhlo khaw lungnah uh boeh. He boeih he ka thiinah. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
18 And the worde of the Lord of hostes came vnto me, saying,
Caempuei BOEIPA kah ol he kai taengla ha pai tih,
19 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, The fast of the fourth moneth, and the fast of the fift, and the fast of the seuenth, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Iudah ioy and gladnes, and prosperous hie feasts: therefore loue the trueth and peace.
“Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. A pali yaehnah neh a panga yaehnah khaw, a parhih yaehnah neh a parha kah yaehnah khaw, Judah imkhui ham tah omngaihnah ham neh kohoenah la, khoning then la poeh ni. Te dongah oltak neh rhoepnah mah lungnah uh.
20 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, That there shall yet come people, and the inhabitants of great cities.
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Pilnam neh khopuei kah khosa rhoek muep kun uh pueng ni.
21 And they that dwell in one citie, shall go to another, saying, Vp, let vs go and pray before the Lord, and seeke the Lord of hostes: I wil go also.
Te vaengah khosa rhoek te pakhat loh pakhat taengla cet uh vetih, “Ceh, BOEIPA mikhmuh ah kothae tueng ham neh caempuei BOEIPA te tlap hamla cet uh sih, kai khaw ka cet coeng,” a ti nah ni.
22 Yea, great people and mightie nations shall come to seeke the Lord of hostes in Ierusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
Pilnam miping neh namtom pilnu loh Jerusalem ah caempuei BOEIPA tlap ham neh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah kothae tueng hamla halo uh ni.
23 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, In those dayes shall ten men take holde out of all languages of the nations, euen take holde of the skirt of him that is a Iewe, and say, We will go with you: for we haue heard that God is with you.
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Te khohnin ah tah namtom olka cungkuem lamloh hlang parha te sisuk uh ni. Judah hlang kah hnihmoi ah sisuk uh vetih, “Nangmih taengkah Pathen ka yaak uh dongah nangmih neh cet sih,” a ti ni,” a ti nah.
