Isaiah 47
1 Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called tender and delicate.
Oe Babilon canu tanglakacuem, kum nateh vaiphu dawk tahung haw. Oe Khaldean canu, bawitungkhung dawk laipalah, talai dawk tahung haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kanem e hoi kanaw e telah bout dei awh mahoeh toe.
2 Take the millstones, and grind meal: uncover thy locks, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers.
Sum hah lat nateh, cakang hah phawm haw. Minhmai ramuk hah hawng haw. Angkidung hah rading haw. Na hna hah na phai totouh kalim nateh, palang raka haw.
3 Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man.
Nang teh, caici lah na o han, Yeirai na po han. Moi ka pathung vaiteh, apihai ka pasai mahoeh.
4 As for our redeemer, Yhwh of Armies is his name, the Holy One of Israel.
Maimouh na karatangkung min teh, ransahu BAWIPA, Isarelnaw e kathounge Cathut tie doeh.
5 Sit thou silent, and get thee into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called, The lady of kingdoms.
Oe Khaldean canu, duem tahung nateh, hmonae koe kâenh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh Napui e uknaeram teh lah na kaw mahoeh toe.
6 I was wroth with my people, I have polluted mine inheritance, and given them into thine hand: thou didst shew them no mercy; upon the ancient hast thou very heavily laid thy yoke.
Ka taminaw koe ka lungkhuek dawkvah, ka râw hah ka khin sak teh na kut dawk na poe. Nang ni na lungma hoeh. Katawngnaw koe hnokari na phu sak.
7 And thou saidst, I shall be a lady for ever: so that thou didst not lay these things to thy heart, neither didst remember the latter end of it.
Kai teh siangpahrang lah pou ka o han telah na pouk dawkvah, hete hnonaw hah na pouk hoeh. Nang dawk a hnukteng ka phat hane hai bout na panuek hoeh.
8 Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children:
Hatdawkvah, hringnawmnae dueng ka tawng niteh, pamda laihoi kaawm e, ma imthung dawk kai doeh toe, kai hoi kâvan e apihai awm hoeh. Lahmainu lah kaawm mahoeh. Camo duenae ka khang mahoeh ka tet e, atu thaw haw.
9 But these two things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood: they shall come upon thee in their perfection for the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the great abundance of thine enchantments.
Hete hno kahni touh: camo duenae hoi lahmainu lah onae ni hnin hni touh, tawkkadek dawk na tho sin han. Na onae hoi na kâringnae teh kapap nakunghai hotnaw teh nang koe puenghoi a tho han.
10 For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me.
Bangtelamaw tetpawiteh, na hawihoehnae hah na kâuep teh, apinihai na hmawt hoeh na la ti. Na lungangnae hoi na panuenae ni na dum teh, kai doeh toe, kai hloilah alouke awm hoeh toe telah na lungthung hoi na ti.
11 Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know from whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt not be able to put it off: and desolation shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know.
Hatdawkvah, nang koe thoenae teh a tho han. Nâhoi maw, a tho tie hah na panuek mahoeh. Yawthoenae ni na tho sin vaiteh, hot teh na kahmat sak thai mahoeh. Na panue thai hoeh e rawknae hah nang koe vaitalahoi a tho han.
12 Stand now with thine enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou hast laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if so be thou mayest prevail.
Na nawca hoi na tawk e na kâringnae hoi taânsinnae naw hah kangdoutkhai ka lawnh. Hawinae hmu hai na hmu yawkaw han, tâ hai na tâ yawkaw han doeh.
13 Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from these things that shall come upon thee.
Nang teh, kâpankhaikung apap kecu dawk ngawt na tâwn toe khe. Atuvah asikhetkathoumnaw hoi âsi karadoungnaw, thapa khet lahoi ka dei thai e naw teh nang dawk ka tho hane hno dawk hoi kangdout awh naseh. Nang hah atu na rungngang naseh.
14 Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it.
Khenhaw! ahnimanaw teh, caphon patetlah ao awh, hmaisawi lah ao awh han. Hmai ka kang e dawk hoi na rungngang thai awh mahoeh. Ka bet sak e hmaisaan awm hoeh, kamben hane hmai awm mahoeh.
15 Thus shall they be unto thee with whom thou hast laboured, even thy merchants, from thy youth: they shall wander every one to his quarter; none shall save thee.
Hot patetlah na tawk e hno teh nang hanlah ao han. Na naw nah hoi na pâtung e hnonaw hah amamae lam dawk koung kâva vaiteh, apinihai na rungngang thai mahoeh.
