Lamentations 4
1 How is the gold become dim! How is the most fine gold changed! The hallowed stones are poured out at the head of every street.
Sana jong adeite khuta among joutai! Sana hoi pen jong amoljeng tai. Muntheng sunga um songmantam ho jeng, jong lam lhongp dunga athangsoh tai.
2 The precious sons of Zion, comparable to fine gold, how are they esteemed as earthen pitchers, the work of the hands of the potter!
Veuvin Jerusalem chate, Mipha chomtah tahsan hoitah tah sanga mantam jo hochu, Tun leibelho tobang'in aboltauvin ahi.
3 Even the jackals draw out the breast, they give suck to their young ones; the daughter of my people is become cruel, like the ostriches in the wilderness.
Sialte jengin jong anoute avah jiuvin, ahinla kami Isrealten avah pouvin ahi. Neldi gamma vacha len “Vagonsang” hon achasenteu anahsah lou bangun ama hon jong a nahsah pouvin ahi.
4 The tongue of the sucking child cleaveth to the roof of his mouth for thirst; the young children ask bread, and none breaketh it unto them.
Dangchahin achateu lhei jouse adanga abehden jouve. Achateu gilkelin an aholun, Ahin koiman pehding aneipoi.
5 They that did feed on dainties are desolate in the streets; they that were brought up in scarlet embrace dunghills.
An twitah tah ana neji ho chun tun lampi dunga khut don apang tauvin ahi. Phatkhatna vonhoi tahtah anavon ho chun tun thilnen kikholna munhoa neh ding aholun ahi.
6 For the iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the sin of Sodom, that was overthrown as in a moment, and no hands fell upon her.
Kamite chonsetna hi Sodom mite chonset na sangin alenjon ahi. Hiche munna chun hetman louvin suhmangna nasatah anachun koimacha akithopi thei ana umpoiye.
7 Her princes were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was as of sapphire;
Ka lengteu jong phatkhat chun amel hoidanu chu bongnoi leh buhbang sangin ana bangjon, amai’u jong songmantam bangin ana vah'in ahi.
8 Their visage is blacker than coal; they are not known in the streets; their skin is shrivelled upon their bones; it is withered, it is become like a stick.
Tunvang amelu jong meihol sangin avomjoi. Lampi dunga jong koiman ahedoh thei tapouve. Avunu jong agu uva abehdan gamin, thing go bangin, agon atah jenge.
9 They that are slain with the sword are better than they that are slain with hunger; for these pine away, stricken through, for want of the fruits of the field.
Chamjamma kithat hochu gelkella thiho sangin avangphajo ahitaove. Ajeh chu lou laiya neh aput tahlou jeh'in kelthohin amangthah jitaove.
10 The hands of women full of compassion have sodden their own children; they were their food in the destruction of the daughter of my people.
Masanga mi lainatpi theitah tah nute hon achateu chu neh dingin akihon gam tauve. Amahon gim hesoha konna hoi dohna dingin achateu chu ana nejengun ahi.
11 The LORD hath accomplished His fury, He hath poured out His fierce anger; and He hath kindled a fire in Zion, which hath devoured the foundations thereof.
Tunvang alunghanna a kon chun Pakai alungna chim tai. Alunghanna hoise tah chu abuhlhah ahitai. Jerusalema lunghanna mei ana kou dohin hichun khopi chu aleibul kiphuna gei chun ana hallha jeng’e.
12 The kings of the earth believed not, neither all the inhabitants of the world, that the adversary and the enemy would enter into the gates of Jerusalem.
Leist lengte ahin - Vannoi mite koiman - Jerusalem kelkot sunga galmi alutthei ding chu ana tahsan pouve.
13 It is because of the sins of her prophets, and the iniquities of her priests, that have shed the blood of the just in the midst of her.
Ahinlah a themgao ho chonsetna leh a thempu ho chonsetna jeh chun hiti hin anasohdoh tan ahi. Amaho chonset jeh'a themmona bei miho thisan kisoa, khopi kisuboh ahi.
14 They wander as blind men in the streets, they are polluted with blood, so that men cannot touch their garments.
Amahohi lamlhongpi dunga ana vahle uvin mi thisana akisubohun koiman amaho atong kha ngam pouvin ahi.
15 'Depart ye! unclean!' men cried unto them, 'Depart, depart, touch not'; yea, they fled away and wandered; men said among the nations: 'They shall no more sojourn here.'
Mipiten chemangun tin asamun aboh nahitauve, neitong khahihun atiuve. Amaho gamla tahin ajamun gamchom mite laha avahle uvin ahinlah koiman achensah nom pouvin ahi.
16 The anger of the LORD hath divided them; He will no more regard them; they respected not the persons of the priests, they were not gracious unto the elders.
Pakai amatahin amaho hi apanpi nom tapouvin muchom chomma athethang gam’u ahitai. Mipihon jong thempuho hi anahsah tapouvin, alamkai hou jong jana anei tapouvin ahi.
17 As for us, our eyes do yet fail for our vain help; in our watching we have watched for a nation that could not save.
Eihon i-pankhompi houvin eihung huhdoh diuvin ingaichauvin, eikithopi theiloudiu nam mite kom jenga jong panpi ingaichauvin a phachom pon ahi.
18 They hunt our steps, that we cannot go in our broad places; our end is near, our days are fulfilled; for our end is come.
Thiding kichat jeh'in lampi dunga jong kavah le ngam pouvin, amahthah ding nikhou jong ahung naitan, amah thah ding ihitauve.
19 Our pursuers were swifter than the eagles of the heaven; they chased us upon the mountains, they lay in wait for us in the wilderness.
Igalmiteu hi mulaopi sangin jong aleng hat jon, Molsang chung dunga jammang go jong leuhen eimudohdiu ahin, gamthip langa kisel jong leuhen hiche munna jong chu eina chan nahlai dingu ahiye.
20 The breath of our nostrils, the anointed of the LORD, was taken in their pits; of whom we said: 'Under his shadow we shall live among the nations.'
Eihon leiset nam pumpi jouse hoa konna eihuhdoh diuva ina monpiu Pakai thaonu i-engpau jeng jong, akiselna munna konin a mandoh tauvin ahi.
21 Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Edom, that dwellest in the land of Uz: the cup shall pass over unto thee also; thou shalt be drunken, and shalt make thyself naked.
Vo! Edom mite Uz gamsunga hi nakipa theiju hinam? Ahin nangin jong Pakai lunghanna khonna konna hi na don tei ding ahi. Nang jeng jong na jukhamna munna sagoh keova naki koi ding ahi.
22 The punishment of thine iniquity is accomplished, O daughter of Zion, He will no more carry thee away into captivity; He will punish thine iniquity, O daughter of Edom, He will uncover thy sins.
Vo khopi hoitah Jerusalem, naki engbolna nihko kichai ding ahitai, Naki engbolna gamma konna nahung kile vahding ahitai. Ahinlah Edom naki engbolna hi kipan bepseu ahinalaiye; Nachonsetna ho jouse hung kiphongdoh vahding ahi tai.
