Isaiah 29
1 Woe [to] Ariel, Ariel, The city of the encampment of David! Add year to year, let festivals go around.
Anunae Ariel, David loh a rhaeh thil Ariel khorha aih, a kum, kum ah n'koei saeh lamtah khotue te vael uh nawn.
2 And I have sent distress to Ariel, And it has been lamentation and mourning, And it has been to me as Ariel.
Ariel te ka kilh vetih rhahdueknah neh ngueknah om bitni. Te vaengah hmueihtuk la ka taengah om ni.
3 And I encamped, O babbler, against you, And I laid siege against you—a camp. And I raised up bulwarks against you.
Nang te kaluek la kang rhaeh thil vetih nang taengah laivung kan lun ni. Te phoeiah nang taengah kasam ka too ni.
4 And you have been low, You speak from the earth, And make your saying low from the dust, And your voice has been from the earth, As one having a familiar spirit, And your saying whispers from the dust,
Na kunyun vaengah diklai lamloh m'voek vetih na olthui loh laipi lamkah n'rhuepthuep sak ni. Te vaengah na ol te diklai lamloh rhaitonghma bangla ha om vetih, laipi khui lamkah na olthui loh a muep ni.
5 And as small dust has been The multitude of those scattering you, And as chaff passing on the multitude of the terrible, And it has been in an instant—suddenly.
Tedae nang taengah aka lueng he laipi canghet bangla muep om ni. Hlanghaeng hlangping khaw cangkik bangla poeng vetih buengrhuet la pahoi om ni.
6 You are inspected by YHWH of Hosts, With thunder, and with an earthquake, And great noise, windstorm, and whirlwind, And flame of devouring fire.
caempuei BOEIPA loh, khohum neh, lingluei neh, cangpalam puei kah ol neh, hlipuei neh ng'hip vetih hmai khuikah hmaihluei loh n'hlawp ni.
7 And as a dream, a vision of night, Has been the multitude of all the nations Who are warring against Ariel, And all its warriors, and its bulwark, Even of those distressing her.
Ariel aka muk namtom boeih neh aka muk carhui boeih, te te aka kilh a rhalvong te khaw hlaempang kah a mangthui tah mang pakhat neh a lilup la om ni.
8 And it has been, as when the hungry dreams, And behold, he is eating, And he has awoken, And his soul [is] empty, And as when the thirsty dreams, And behold, he is drinking, And he has awoken, And behold, he is weary, And his soul is longing, So is the multitude of all the nations Who are warring against Mount Zion.
Bungpong khaw mang a man vaengkah bangla om ni. A caak coeng akhaw a haenghang neh a hinglu hoep hailek tih tuihalh ni a man. A ok akhaw a haenghang vaengah a buhmueh rhathih neh a hinglu halthi coeng ke. Tangkuet la Zion tlang aka muk namtom boeih khaw hlangping la om ni.
9 Linger and wonder, look, indeed, look, Be drunk, and not with wine, Stagger, and not with strong drink.
Uelh uh laeh, ngaihmang neh na mik buem uh. Mik buem rhuihmil neh a ngaengai te misurtui nen moenih, yu nen bal moenih.
10 For YHWH has poured out a spirit of deep sleep on you, And He closes your eyes—the prophets, And your heads—the seers—He covered.
BOEIPA loh mikku mueihla te nang soah ham bueih tih na mik na hna nah tonghma rhoek te a tahoeng sak tih na lu nah khohmu rhoek te a dah pah coeng.
11 And the vision of the whole is to you, As words of the sealed scroll, That they give to one knowing scrolls, Saying, “Please read this,” And he has said, “I am not able, for it [is] sealed”;
Mangthui boeih he miknoek a daeng. cabu dongah nangmih ham ol la om coeng. Te te cabu aka hmat taengah a paek tih, “Tae mai he,” a ti nah. Tedae, “Te te miknoek a daeng tih ka noeng moenih,” a ti nah.
12 And the scroll is given to him who has not known scrolls, Saying, “Please read this,” And he has said, “I have not known scrolls.”
Cabu te cabu aka ming pawt taengah a paek tih, “Tae dae he,” a ti nah hatah, “Ca ka ming moenih,” a ti.
13 And the Lord says: “Because this people has drawn near with its mouth, And they have honored Me with its lips, And it has put its heart far off from Me, And their fear of Me is a precept taught by men!
Te dongah ka Boeipa loh, “Pilnam long he a ka kak neh ha mop tih a hmui kak neh kai n'thangpomuh. A lungbuei tah kai lamloh a lakhla sak. Hlang kah olpaek a cang neh kai aka rhih bangla om.
14 Therefore, behold, I am adding to do wonderfully with this people, A wonder, and a marvel, And the wisdom of its wise ones has perished, And the understanding of its intelligent ones hides itself.”
Te dongah pilnam he khobaerhambae neh mueipuel sak ham mueipuel hnatlak la ka koei ni he. Te vaengah aka cueih rhoek kah cueihnah he paltham vetih aka yakming rhoek kah yakmingnah khaw thuh uh ni.
15 Woe [to] those going deep from YHWH to hide counsel, And whose works have been in darkness. And they say, “Who is seeing us? And who is knowing us?”
Anunae cilsuep thuh ham te BOEIPA taeng lamloh aka muelh uh mai. A khoboe uh khaw khohmuep khuikah la om rhoe tih, “Mamih aka hmu te unim? mamih aka ming te unim?,” a ti uh.
16 Your perversion! Is the potter esteemed as clay, That the work says of its maker, “He has not made me?” And the framed thing said of its framer, “He did not understand?”
Nangmih khuplat rhoek aw, ambop te amlai bangla a poek vetih bitat aka saii taengah, “Kai n'saii boeh,” ti saeh a? Benbonah la amah aka saii te yakming pawh,” ti saeh a?
17 Is it not yet a very little [while], And Lebanon has turned into a fruitful field, And the fruitful field is reckoned for a forest?
A yolkai bet pueng pawt nim? Lebanon te cangphil cangngol neh ha mael vetih a cangthai te duup bangla a ngai ni.
18 And the deaf have heard the words of a scroll in that day, And out of thick darkness, and out of darkness, The eyes of the blind see.
Tekah khohnin ah tah cabu dongkah olka te hnapang rhoek loh a yaak uh vetih khohmuep neh hmaisuep lamkah mikdael mik long khaw a hmuh uh ni.
19 And the humble have added joy in YHWH, And the poor among men Rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
Kodo rhoek tah BOEIPA dongah kohoenah neh thap uh vetih khodaeng hlang rhoek khaw Israel kah hlangcim dongah omngaih uh ni.
20 For the terrible one has ceased, And the scorner has been consumed, And all watching for iniquity have been cut off,
Hlanghaeng te a khawk sak vetih hmuiyoi khaw a khah ni. Boethae neh aka hak rhoek khaw boeih a saii uh pueng ni.
21 Who cause men to sin in word, And lay a snare for a reprover in the gate, And turn aside the righteous into emptiness.
Hlang he olka dongah lai a hmuh. Vongka ah a tluung neh dong a naat tih aka dueng te hinghong neh a vuei a nanuh.
22 Therefore, thus said YHWH, Who ransomed Abraham, Concerning the house of Jacob: “Jacob is not ashamed now, Nor does his face now become pale,
Te dongah ni Abraham aka lat BOEIPA loh Jakob imkhui te, “Jakob te yahbai voel pawt vetih a maelhmai khaw hmaithikak mahpawh.
23 For in his seeing his children, The work of My hand, in his midst, They sanctify My Name, And have sanctified the Holy One of Jacob, And they declare the God of Israel fearful.
Ka kut dongkah bibi te a ca rhoek loh a hmuh vaengah amah khui ah ka ming a ciim uh ni. Te vaengah Jakob kah a Hlangcim te a ciim uh vetih Israel Pathen taengah a sarhing uh ni.
24 And the erring in spirit have known understanding, And murmurers learn doctrine!”
Te vaengah mueihla khohmang rhoek kah yakmingnah te a ming uh vetih cailak rhoek kah rhingtuknah a cang bitni,” a ti he.
