Zacharias 8
1 And the word of the Lord Almighty came, saying,
Hiche jou chun hatchungnung Pakaija kon in thupeh khat ahung kitnin hitin ati,
2 Thus says the Lord Almighty; I have been jealous for Jerusalem and for Sion with great jealousy, and I have been jealous for her with great fury.
Hatchungnung Pakaiyin hitin aseije, Zion kangailut nahi agil lheh jeng in ahi, Jerusalem ka ngailut nahin eival-lhum jeng in ahi.
3 Thus says the Lord; I will return to Sion, and dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a true city, and the mountain of the Lord Almighty a holy mountain.
Tun Pakaiyin hitin aseije, keima Zion ah kahung kilekit tai chuleh keima Jerusalema kachen ding ahi, chuteng leh Jerusalem khopi chu kitahna khopi kiti ding ahi, hatchungnung Pakai molchu moltheng kiti ding ahi.
4 Thus says the Lord Almighty; There shall yet dwell old men and old women in the streets of Jerusalem, every one holding his staff in his hand for age.
Hichehi hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin hitin aseije, tesepu le tehsepi ho Jerusalem lam lhongpia hi mol akiphouva vahlediu khopi ningkoija toukhom diu ahi.
5 And the broad places of the city shall be filled with boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.
Khopi lamlhongpia chu pasal chapang holeh numei chapang ho akichemma dimset diu ahi.
6 Thus says the Lord Almighty; If it shall be impossible in the sight of the remnant of this people in those days, shall it also be impossible in my sight? says the Lord Almighty.
Hichehi hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin aseije tutahin hitiho chu Pathen mite hon lhom chalah-a hin hithei dingin gel ahahsai ahinla hatchungnungpen Pakai dinga ipi ahahsa um ding ham? tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin aseije.
7 Thus says the Lord Almighty; Behold, I [will] save my people from the east country, and the west country;
Hichehi hatchungnung Pakaiyin asei ahi, veovin keiman kamite solamma konle lhumlama konna ka huhdoh ding ahi.
8 and I will bring them in, and cause [them] to dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be to me a people, and I will be to them a God, in truth and in righteousness.
Keiman ainnu Jerusalema lungmong sella kachensah diu ahi. Amahohi kamiteu hiding, chuleh keimahi a Pathenu kahiding thudih tahle kitahna neitah a achung'uva kavaihom ding ahi.
9 Thus says the Lord Almighty; Let your hands be strong, [you that] hear in these days these words out of the mouth of the prophets, from the day that the house of the Lord Almighty was founded, and from the time that the temple was built.
Thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin aseije, hat inlang na natoh hi tongchai in, hatchungnungpen Pakaiyin aseije, hiche Hou-in hi aleibul akigonna pat in themgao hon in asah chai diu daan ana seisau ahitai.
10 For before those days the wages of men could not be profitable, and there could be no hire of cattle, and there could be no peace by reason of the affliction to him that went out or to him that came in: for I would have let loose all men, every one against his neighbor.
Hou-in natoh ahung kipat tilchun natongho thaman ding leh gancha thaman peh ding sum ana umpon, jetle veija galmi ana umjeh in chele vale jong tijat anauma, ajehchu keiman mitinchu kana kidouto sahin ahi.
11 But now I [will] not do to the remnant of this people according to the former days, says the Lord Almighty.
Tunvang kamite amoh chengse chu tumasanga kabol lou ding ahitai tin hatchungnungpen Pakaiyin aseijin ahi.
12 But I will show peace: the vine shall yield her fruit, and the land shall yield her produce, and the heaven shall give its dew: and I will give as an inheritance all these things to the remnant of my people.
Ajehchu keiman nangho lah a chamdella phattheina muchi kitu tan ahi. Lengpithei hung gaphat in leiset in anche louhing hin sepdoh intin chuleh vanna konin daitwi hungneng ding ahitai. Hitichun keiman Judah le Israel amoh chengse chu phatthei bohna gou kalosah ding ahi.
13 And it shall come to pass, as you were a curse among the nations, O house of Juda, and house of Israel; so will I save you, and you shall be a blessing: be of good courage, and strengthen your hands.
Namdang laha Judah le Israel chu sapset changmi kana hisah ahi. Ahinla hichu hita lou ding, tuahi keiman nanghohi kahuhdoh a phatthei konna nam mite kahisah diu ahi. Hijeh chun kicha hih in, hat in lang Hou-in sahphat kitna natohchu pantan.
14 For thus says the Lord Almighty; As I took counsel to afflict you when your fathers provoked me, says the Lord Almighty, and I repented not:
Ajeh chu hiche hi hatchungnung Pakaiyin asei ahi. Napu napateu vin eina phin lunghang jeh in nangho chu kana engbol nahiuve.
15 so have I prepared and taken counsel in these days to do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Juda: be you of good courage.
Tunvang Judah mipite leh Jerusalem phattheiboh dinga gel lhuhna kanei ahitai. Hijeh chun kicha hih in,
16 These [are] the things which you shall do; speak truth every one with his neighbor; judge truth and peaceful judgment in your gates:
Ahinla nangin hichehi na bol tei ding ahi. Khat le khat thutah kiseipeh touvin, chamna umdoh theina dingin thudih in thutan-un.
17 and let none of you devise evil in his heart against his neighbor; and love not a false oath: for all these things I hate, says the Lord Almighty.
Lunggel dihlouvin kichangto hih-un, thutah'a na kihahsel na petchah in lang jouleh nal seija na kipehna su tang jong in,
18 And the word of the Lord Almighty came to me, saying,
Hiche ahin hatchungnung Pakaija kon thupeh khat ahung lhung kitne,
19 Thus says the Lord Almighty, The fourth fast, and the fifth fast, and the seventh fast, and the tenth fast, shall be to the house of Juda for joy and gladness, and for good feasts; and you shall rejoice; and love you the truth and peace.
Hichehi hatchungnung Pakaija konna thupeh ahi. Lhali lhinna a na an-ngolna lha-nga channa a na-angolna a, lhasagi lhinna a na an-ngolna chuleh lhasom lhinna a na an-ngolna hochu Juda mipite dinga thanop nale kipana chuleh haldohna an-ngol hihen. Hijehchun thutahle chamna chu kolchah un,
20 Thus says the Lord Almighty; Yet shall many peoples come, and the inhabitants of many cities;
Hichehi hatchungnung Pathen in aseije, vannoi leiset khopia kon in chitin namtin mipite Jerusalema hung vahlut diu ahi.
21 and the inhabitants of five cities shall come together to one city, saying, Let us go to make supplication to the Lord, and to seek the face of the Lord Almighty; I will go also.
Khopi khatna mite chun khopi khatna mite kom ah hungun Pakai phattheiboh thumdingin Jerusalema cheute atidiu ahi. Hatchungnung Pakai hou ding in cheute ati diu ahi keivang kakipattai, ati.
22 And many peoples and many nations shall come to seek earnestly the face of the Lord Almighty in Jerusalem, and to obtain favor of the Lord.
Mitamtah leh thaneitah nam miteho chu Jerusalema hung uvintin hatching nung Pakai phatthei bohna ahung thumdiu ahi.
23 Thus says the Lord Almighty; In those days [my word shall be fulfilled] if ten men of all the languages of the nations should take hold—even take hold of the hem of a Jew, saying, We will go with you; for we have heard that God is with you.
Hatchungnung Pakaiyin hitin aseije, Hiche nikho teng chuleh vannoi leiset a chitin namtin pao tintang a kon in michom chom somlekhat chengin hung uvintin Judah mikhat ponmang tuh uvintin, lungset tah in neikilhon piuvin ajehchu nangho hi Pathen nin na umpi uve tin kaja uve ati ding’u ahi.
