< Isaiah 24 >
1 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.
BOEIPA loh diklai a hlaih tih a pong sak coeng ke. Te dongah a maelhmai a paihaeh sak vetih khosa rhoek khaw a taekyak pah ni.
2 And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the creditor, so with the debtor.
Te vaengah khosoih taengah khaw pilnam taengkah bangla, a boeipa taengah khaw sal taengkah bangla, boeinu taengah khaw salnu bangla, aka yoi taengah aka lai taengkah bangla, puhlah taengah purhong bangla, laibai aka suk taengah khaw laiba aka sah taengkah bangla a om pah ni.
3 The earth shall be utterly emptied, and clean despoiled; for the LORD hath spoken this word.
Diklai he a hlaih, a hlaih vetih a poelyoe rhoela a poelyoe uh ni. Hekah ol he BOEIPA loh a thui ngawn coeng.
4 The earth fainteth and fadeth away, the world faileth and fadeth away, the lofty people of the earth do fail.
Diklai khaw nguekcoi neh tahah, lunglai khaw a thathae neh tahah, diklai pilnam kah a koevoeinah khaw a thathae bal.
5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, violated the statute, broken the everlasting covenant.
Diklai he a khuikah khosa rhoek kongah poeih uh coeng. Olkhueng te a poe uh, oltlueh te a hoilae uh tih, khosuen paipi te a phae uh.
6 Therefore hath a curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are found guilty; therefore the inhabitants of the earth waste away, and men are left few.
Te dongah thaephoeinah loh diklai a yoop tih a khuikah khosa rhoek khaw boe uh coeng. Te dongah diklai khosa rhoek tah sai uh tih hlanghing khaw a yolkai ni a sueng coeng.
7 The new wine faileth, the vine fadeth; all the merry-hearted do sigh.
misur thai khaw nguekcoi tih misur kung huum, lungbuei ko aka hoe khaw boeih huei uh.
8 The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth.
Kamrhing kah omthennah khaw paa, yalpo rhoek kah longlonah khaw paa, rhotoeng kah omthennah khaw duem.
9 They drink not wine with a song; strong drink is bitter to them that drink it.
Laa te khaw misur neh yun uh voel pawh. A ok ham yu te khaw paeng coeng.
10 Broken down is the city of wasteness; every house is shut up, that none may come in.
Hinghong khorha tah po tih kun thil ham im khaw boeih a khaih.
11 There is a crying in the streets amidst the wine; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone.
Misurtui ham te kawtpoeng tom ah henah om, kohoenah loh boeih hmuep tih diklai omthennah khaw khum.
12 In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten unto ruin.
Khopuei ah imsuep te a hlun tih vongka te a bungnah la a top.
13 For thus shall it be in the midst of the earth, among the peoples, as at the beating of an olive-tree, as at the gleanings when the vintage is done.
Te dongah diklai laklo ah khaw, pilnam laklo ah khaw olive a hae vaengkah bangla, misurbit a thok daengkah a yoep bangla om ni.
14 Those yonder lift up their voice, they sing for joy; for the majesty of the LORD they shout from the sea:
Amih te a ol a huel uh tih BOEIPA kah hoemdamnah te a tamhoe puei uh. Te vaengah tuipuei lamkah khaw a hlampan puei uh.
15 'Therefore glorify ye the LORD in the regions of light, even the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, in the isles of the sea.'
Te dongah BOEIPA tah hmaipuei dongah, Israel Pathen Yahweh ming tah tuipuei sanglak ah thangpom uh.
16 From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs: 'Glory to the righteous.' But I say: I waste away, I waste away, woe is me! The treacherous deal treacherously; yea, the treacherous deal very treacherously.
Diklai khobawt lamkah kirhang hlangdueng laa te n'yaak uh coeng. Tedae, “Kai taengkah sakboeihnah, kai taengkah sakboeihnah aih. Anunae kamah taengah hnukpoh khaw hnukpoh uh mai. Hnukpoh te hnukpoh rhoek loh a hnukpoh thil uh,” ka ti.
17 Terror, and the pit, and the trap, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth.
Birhihnah neh rhom khaw, pael khaw diklai khosa nang ham khaw.
18 And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the terror shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the trap; for the windows on high are opened, and the foundations of the earth do shake;
Birhihnah ol ah rhaelrham vetih rhom ah aka cungku khaw om ni. Rhom khui lamkah aka coe khaw pael neh a boh ni. Hmuensang lamkah bangbuet khaw ong uh tih diklai khaw a yung hoep.
19 The earth is broken, broken down, the earth is crumbled in pieces, the earth trembleth and tottereth;
Diklai khaw thae la thae coeng. Diklai he rhek la rhek coeng. Diklai he tuen la tuen coeng.
20 The earth reeleth to and fro like a drunken man, and swayeth to and fro as a lodge; and the transgression thereof is heavy upon it, and it shall fall, and not rise again.
Diklai he yurhui bangla vikvuek la vikvuek uh tih tlak bangla rhaehba sut. A boekoek loh amah a nan tih a cungku vaengah koep thoo mahpawh.
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD will punish the host of the high heaven on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.
Tekah khohnin a pha vaengah BOEIPA loh hmuensang kah hmuensang caempuei te khaw khaw, diklai ah diklai manghai rhoek te khaw a hip ni.
22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the dungeon, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be punished.
Tangrhom khuikah hlongkhoh te hlop at la a coi uh vetih rhomhmop ah a khoh uh ni. Tedae khohnin muep a koe phoeiah ni a cawh eh.
23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed; for the LORD of hosts will reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before His elders shall be Glory.
Hla khaw a maelhmai tal vetih kholing khaw yaai ni. Zion tlang sokah Jerusalem neh amah kah thangpomnah te patong rhoek hmaiah caempuei BOEIPA te manghai ni.
