< Isaiah 31 >
1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because [they are] many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD!
Abomhaih hnik hanah Izip ah caeh tathuk, hrangnawk oephaih tawn kami, pop parai hrang lakok oephaih tawn kami, thacak hrang angthueng kaminawk to oep moe, ciimcai Isarael Sithaw to khen ai, Angraeng doeh pakrong ai kaminawk loe khosak bing!
2 Yet he also [is] wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of them that work iniquity.
Anih loe palungha pongah amrohaih to phasak tih; anih loe thuih ih lok to azuk let mak ai; anih loe sethaih sah kami imthung takoh to tuk moe, kahoih ai hmuen sak abomh kaminawk to tuk hanah angthawk tih.
3 Now the Egyptians [are] men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the LORD shall stretch out his hand, both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that is holpen shall fall down, and they all shall fail together.
Toe Izip kaminawk loe Sithaw na ai ni, kami rumram toeng ni; nihcae ih hrangnawk doeh muithla ah om ai, takpum ah ni oh o rumram toeng. Angraeng mah ban phok thuih naah loe, anih abomh kaminawk amtimh o ueloe, abomhaih hnu kaminawk doeh amtimh o tih; nihcae loe nawnto anghmaa o boih tih.
4 For thus hath the LORD spoken unto me, Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, [he] will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof.
Angraeng mah hae tiah ang thuih; Kaipui hoi a caanawk loe kaek ih moi to caak o moe, a hang o naah, tuutoep kaminawk boih mah hang o thuih cadoeh, hanghaih lok to zii o mak ai, tasoeh doeh tasoeh o mak ai; to baktih toengah misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng loe to ah kaom mae hoi Zion mae ah nihcae to tuk hanah anghum tathuk tih.
5 As birds flying, so will the LORD of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver [it; and] passing over he will preserve it.
Tavaa mah pakhraeh hoiah a caanawk to khuk baktih toengah, Angraeng mah Jerusalem to pakaa tih; anih mah pakaa ueloe loisak tih; anih mah pakaa tih, danpaek ai ah loisak tih.
6 Turn ye unto [him from] whom the children of Israel have deeply revolted.
Aw Israel caanawk misa nang thawk o thuih ih, Angraeng khaeah amlaem o let ah.
7 For in that day every man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made unto you [for] a sin.
To na niah loe zaehaih sak hanah, nangmacae ban hoiah sak ih sui maw, sumkanglung hoiah maw na sak o ih krangnawk to na vaa o king tih boeh.
8 Then shall the Assyrian fall with the sword, not of a mighty man; and the sword, not of a mean man, shall devour him: but he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall be discomfited.
Assyria loe thacak kami mah hum mak ai, sumsen hoiah ni dueh tih; kasae kami mah hum mak ai, anih loe suemsen mah paaeh tih; toe anih loe sumsen thung hoiah cawn ueloe, angmah ih thendoengnawk to misong tok sahsak tih.
9 And he shall pass over to his strong hold for fear, and his princes shall be afraid of the ensign, saith the LORD, whose fire [is] in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem.
Zit loiah angmah ih kacak sipae to cawn taak tih, anih ih angraengnawk loe angmathaih hmuen hnuk o naah zii o tih, tiah Zion mae ah kangqong hmai ah kaom, Jerusalem ah doeh hmaitikhaih ahmuen ah kaom, Angraeng mah thuih.
