< Isaiah 16 >

1 Send ye the lambs for the ruler of the land from the crags that are toward the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
Zion canu mon dawk kaawm e ram ukkung bawi hanelah, Sela kho hoi kahrawngum lam lahoi tuca hah patawn haw.
2 For it shall be that, as wandering birds, as a scattered nest, so shall the daughters of Moab be at the fords of Arnon.
Arnon palang rakanae koe e lamthungnaw dawk, Moab canunaw teh tabu raphoe lah ao teh kamleng e tavanaw patetlah ao awh.
3 'Give counsel, execute justice; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; betray not the fugitive.
Pouknae na poe awh haw. Lannae lahoi laideitâtueng awh haw. Kanî tuengtalueng thun nah e na tâhlip hah, karum patetlah awm sak awh haw. Pâlei e naw hah hrawk awh. Ka yawng e naw hah pahnawt awh hanh.
4 Let mine outcasts dwell with thee; as for Moab, be thou a covert to him from the face of the spoiler.' For the extortion is at an end, spoiling ceaseth, they that trampled down are consumed out of the land;
Moab ram hoi a pâlei teh a takhoe e naw hah nangmouh koe rei awm naseh. Ahnimouh karaphoenaw e kut dawk hoi rawngkhan hanelah kângue e lah awm awh. Ka hnephnapnaw ao awh hoeh torei, raphoenae teh a roum torei, reprep ka coungroe e taminaw teh talai van hoi a kahma awh torei teh,
5 And a throne is established through mercy, and there sitteth thereon in truth, in the tent of David, one that judgeth, and seeketh justice, and is ready in righteousness.
bawitungkhung teh lungpatawnae lahoi a cak han. Hote tahungnae dawkvah, Devit e lukkareiim thung hoi buet touh ni lawkceng vaiteh, lannae hah tawng vaiteh, lannae hah karanglah sak vaiteh, yuemkamcunae lahoi a tahung han.
6 We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud; even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his arrogancy, his ill-founded boastings.
Moab e kâoupnae, banghloimaw a kâoup, ahnie lunglennae, a kâoupnae, a kaisuenae pueng teh maimouh ni thai awh toe. A kâoupnae pueng teh ahrawnghrang doeh.
7 Therefore shall Moab wail for Moab, every one shall wail; for the sweet cakes of Kir-hareseth shall ye mourn, sorely stricken.
Hatdawkvah, Moab khocanaw teh, Moab kho hanelah a cingou awh han. Khoca pueng a cingou awh han. Nangmouh teh Kirhareseth kho e misur vaiyeinaw hanelah na cingou awh han. Ahnimouh teh atangcalah puenghoi runae a kâhmo awh han.
8 For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah, whose choice plants did overcome the lords of nations; they reached even unto Jazer, they wandered into the wilderness; her branches were spread abroad, they passed over the sea.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Heshbon laikawknaw, Sibmah misurkungnaw teh ketkamyai teh a ke awh toe. Miphunnaw ukkung bawinaw ni misurbomnaw teh a khoe awh toe. Hote akungnaw teh, Jazer kho totouh a pha teh, kahrawngum totouh a yam awh. Hote a kangnaw teh, tuipui ka tapuet lah a yam awh.
9 Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah; I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh; for upon thy summer fruits and upon thy harvest the battle shout is fallen.
Hatdawkvah, Jazer kho hoi cungtalah Sibmah misurnaw hanelah ka khuika. Oe Heshbon kho hoi Elealeh kho, nang hah ka mitphi hoi cupcup na duk sak han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nange kompawi a pawhik hoi caâpawi a pawhiknaw teh a kâhat toe.
10 And gladness and joy are taken away out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting; no treader shall tread out wine in the presses; I have made the vintage shout to cease.
Lunghawinae hoi nawmnae teh talai kahawi dawk hoi takhoe lah ao toe. Misur takha dawk lunghawinae la saknae awm hoeh. Lunghawinae hoi hramnae awm hoeh. Misur paw katinnaw ni katinnae dawkvah misur paw hah katin awh hoeh. Hramki lawk ka kâhat sak toe.
11 Wherefore my heart moaneth like a harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kir-heres.
Hatdawkvah, kaie ka lung teh, Moab ram hanelah, ka lungthin teh Kirhareseth kho hanelah ratoung lawk patetlah a cingou toe.
12 And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab hath wearied himself upon the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail
Moabnaw ni a rasangnae hmuen koe, tawntam laihoi ratoum hanelah, amamae kathounge hmuen koe a tho awh navah, banghai hawinae hmawt awh mahoeh.
13 This is the word that the LORD spoke concerning Moab in time past.
Hethateh, atuvah Moab ram hoi kâkuen e BAWIPA ni a dei e lawk doeh.
14 But now the LORD hath spoken, saying: 'Within three years, as the years of a hireling, and the glory of Moab shall wax contemptible for all his great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and without strength.'
Atu BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, kum thum touh thung, thaw ka tawk hanlah hlai e ni thaw a tawknae kum patetlah Moab e bawilennae teh tami moikapap ni a khet rahnoum awh han. Kacawie naw teh ekvoi ayounca awh dawkvah, a tha a baw awh ati toe.
