Nahum 2
1 A maul is come up before thy face; guard the defences, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily! —
Ka raphoe hane tami teh na hmalah a pha toe. Nange rapanim hah ring leih. Na keng hah caksak nateh tha kâ lat leih.
2 For the LORD restoreth the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine-branches. —
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut teh Isarelnaw e a lentoenae patetlah Jakop e a lentoenae hah ao sak toe. Ka raphoe e taminaw ni Jakop e catoun, a raphoe teh, ahnie a cakang hai koung a raphoe toe.
3 The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet; the chariots are fire of steel in the day of his preparation, and the cypress spears are made to quiver.
Athakaawme taminaw ni ka paling e saiphei a patuep awh teh ka paling e khohna a kho awh. Ranglengnaw hah tahloi hoi laklak a ang teh, tahroenaw teh thouk a kâroe awh.
4 The chariots rush madly in the streets, they jostle one against another in the broad places; the appearance of them is like torches, they run to and fro like the lightnings.
Ranglengnaw teh cahucahu kacailah lam dawk atunglah, akalah a yawng awh. Hmaito patetlah a paling teh sumpa patetlah a yawng awh.
5 He bethinketh himself of his worthies; they stumble in their march; they make haste to the wall thereof, and the mantelet is prepared.
Ransanaw a hroecoe teh ahnimouh ni ayânaw dei a tanawt awh. Khorapan koe karanglah a cei awh teh ramvengnae khu a sak awh.
6 The gates of the rivers are opened, and the palace is dissolved.
Tui longkha a kamawng teh siangpahrang im a rawk toe. Nineveh tanglanaw e a khohna a rading pouh teh,
7 And the queen is uncovered, she is carried away, and her handmaids moan as with the voice of doves, tabering upon their breasts.
bakhu patetlah khui laihoi lungtabue a ratup awh.
8 But Nineveh hath been from of old like a pool of water; yet they flee away; 'Stand, stand'; but none looketh back.
Ayan hoiyah Nineveh khopui teh tuinawk patetlah doeh ao. Atuteh tui a lawng toe, kangdout awh, kangdout awh telah kahram nakunghai apinihai kamlang sin hoeh.
9 Take ye the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold; for there is no end of the store, rich with all precious vessels.
Ngun lawm awh. Sui hai lawm awh. Ngai kawi e hnopainaw suitabu thung e rasa teh baw thai hoeh.
10 She is empty, and void, and waste; and the heart melteth, and the knees smite together, and convulsion is in all loins, and the faces of them all have gathered blackness.
Khopui teh luengpalueng lah ao. Hnopai awm hoeh. Tami kingdi. Khoca pueng teh a lungpout awh, khokpakhu kâkhawng lahoi a keng a pataw awh teh, minhmai ka tamang lah ao awh.
11 Where is the den of the lions, which was the feeding-place of the young lions, where the lion and the lioness walked, and the lion's whelp, and none made them afraid?
Sendek a onae hmuen, sendek a canae hmuen, sendek canaw ni apihai kâtaket sak laipalah a onae hmuen teh na maw ao.
12 The lion did tear in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his caves with prey, and his dens with ravin.
Sendek ni a canaw hanelah a kei teh, a manunaw hanelah a lahuen a kara pouh teh, a kâkhu dawk a kei e moi hoi akawi sak.
13 Behold, I am against thee, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword shall devour thy young lions; and I will cut off thy prey from the earth, and the voice of thy messengers shall no more be heard.
Ransahu BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, nange avanglah ka o han. Nange ranglengnaw hah hmai koung ka sawi han. Na sendeknaw hah tahloi hoi ka thei han. Na lawp e hnonaw talai dawk hoi ka takhoe han. Nange na patounenaw e lawk hah apinihai bout thai mahoeh toe.
