Isaiah 9
1 For [there will be] no gloom on her who [is] distressed as at the former time. The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, So the latter has honored the way of the sea, Beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations.
Hijengjongle hiche boina meipi jin le phat-hahsa chu tonsot geiya chelhajinglou ding ahi. Zebulun le Naphtali gamkai chu hung kineosahtantin, hinla Galilee a Gentile, Jordan lui le Twipi kikah-a lamlen pangdunga chengte chu loupina chang diu ahi.
2 The people who are walking in darkness Have seen a great light, Dwellers in a land of death-shade, Light has shone on them.
Muthima vahle mite chun vah loupitah amudiu ahi. Ajehchu hiche gam'a muthim thuhtah'a chengho laha chu vah hung vah-emsel ding ahi.
3 You have multiplied the nation, You have made its joy great, They have rejoiced before You as the joy in harvest, As [men] rejoice in their apportioning spoil.
Nanghon Israel nampi chu nakehlet diu, chuteng amipiho chu kipah thanom diu ahi. Amaho chu lou lholhun laiya loubol-ho akipa thanopmuva, galjouhon neile gou achomhou akihopkhenuva akipa thanop banguva nangho masanga kipah thanom diu ahi.
4 Because the yoke of its burden, And the staff of its shoulder, the rod of its exactor, You have broken as [in] the day of Midian.
Ijeh-inem itileh asoh namkoljon’u chu nahebohpehtan chuleh alengkou-uva apohgihhou nadoplhahpehuva, Midian galsat sepaiho nasatlhuh banga abolgentheipau tenggol jong nahebohpeh ding ahi.
5 For every battle of a warrior [is] with rushing, and raiment rolled in blood, And it has been for burning—fuel of fire.
Gal thisan nat galsat-ho kengkoh le agalvonhou jong meiya hallhuma umsoh ding, hiho chu mei chapkouva pang diu ahi.
6 For a Child has been born to us, A Son has been given to us, And the dominion is on His shoulder, And He calls His Name Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Father of Eternity, Prince of Peace.
Ijeh-inem itileh eiho dingin naosen khat apengtan, chapa khat eikipetauve. Gamvaipoten Ama lengkouva thunei vaihopna angaplhah diu ahi. Chuleh Ama chu Thumopthem kidangtah, Hatchungnung Pathen, Tonsot Mipa, Chamna Lengpa kitiding ahi.
7 Of the increase of [His] dominion, And of peace, there is no end, On the throne of David, and on His kingdom, To establish it, and to support it, In judgment and in righteousness, From now on, even for all time, The zeal of YHWH of Hosts does this.
Agamvaipoh le chamna chu beitih umtalou ding, Ama’n apului David laltouna-a kon’a thudih le thutah'a tonsot geiya vai ahom ding ahi. Hitia chu Van galsatte Pakai tompanna jal'a thil hunglhung ding ahi.
8 The Lord has sent a word into Jacob, And it has fallen in Israel.
Pakai chun Jacob dounan thu aseitan; athutanna chu Israel chungah alhutai.
9 And the people have known—all of it, Ephraim, and the inhabitant of Samaria, In pride and in greatness of heart, saying,
Israel mite le Samaria mite kiletsahtah le kihisahtaha thuseiho chun kihetloiyuhen.
10 “Bricks have fallen, and we build hewn work, Sycamores have been cut down, and we renew cedars.”
Amahon, “Chehlhang achimlhaho chu songpeh-in saphau hitin, theiba thingho chu kisatbong gam jongleh, cedar thingin lhenguhite,” tiin aseiyui.
11 And YHWH sets the adversaries of Rezin on high above him, And he joins his enemies together,
Hinla Pakaiyin Rezin melmate chu Israel dou dinga ahin puiya amelmateu jouse ahin tildoh ding ahi.
12 Aram from before, and Philistia from behind, And they devour Israel with the whole mouth. With all this His anger has not turned back, And His hand is still stretched out.
Solama kon Syriate, chule lhumlama kon Philistine-techu panguva, Israel chu avallhum diu ahi. Ahijengvanga Pakai lunghanna dailhadehlou lai ding ahi. Akhuttum jetsa-a alap jing nahlai ding ahi.
13 And the people has not turned back to Him who is striking it, And they have not sought YHWH of Hosts.
Hitobang suhgimna athoh vanguvin Pakai henga kisih-in kile kit pouvinte. Van galsatte Pakai chu ahol dehlou lai diu ahi.
14 And YHWH cuts off head and tail from Israel, Branch and reed—the same day.
Hijeha chu Pakaiyin alua pat amei geiya lusu-bahho le pumpengho nikhatleh asatlhah ding ahi.
15 Elderly and accepted of faces—he [is] the head, And prophet teaching falsehood—he [is] the tail.
Israel lamkaiho chu alu ahi’n, themgaoho chu amei ahi.
16 And the eulogists of this people are causing to err, And its eulogized ones are consumed.
Ijeh-inem itileh mipi lamkaiho chun mipi apuikhel tauvin, amaho chun manthahna lampiah apuiyun ahi.
17 Therefore, the Lord does not rejoice over its young men, And He does not pity its orphans and its widows, For everyone [is] profane, and an evildoer, And every mouth is speaking folly. With all this His anger has not turned back, And His hand is still stretched out.
Hijeha chu Pakaiyin gollhangho le meithaiho chuleh naochagaho chung kisan’a hepina beihella alha ding ahi. Ajehchu amaho chu miphalou le miphalhemho ahiuvin chuleh ngolhoithu jeng aseiyui. Pakai lunghanna jong chimtheilouva, talen matsah dinga akhuttum jetsa-a umnalai ding ahi.
18 For wickedness has burned as a fire, It devours brier and thorn, And it kindles in thickets of the forest, And they lift themselves up, an exaltation of smoke!
Akhohset ding dan chu gam-meika tobang ahi. Ling le khaoho jeng akahlhah seh hilouva agammang pumpi akah chaisohhel jeng ding ahi. Agam meikah-a kon chunglama meikhu kitungtou jeng ding ahi
19 In the wrath of YHWH of Hosts The land has been consumed, And the people is as fuel of fire; A man has no pity on his brother,
Van galsatte Pakai lunghanna chun agamlei chu kavomsoh-intin, mite chu mei deo jeju lah-a kihallhumuntin, koiman apenpi asopi jeng jong ahoidohlou ding ahi.
20 And cuts down on the right, and has been hungry, And he devours on the left, And they have not been satisfied, They each devour the flesh of his own arm.
Ainkengteu khutjetlama anokhumuva, ahiala gilkel jing nalai diu ahi. Veilama ainkengteu amaitho jenguva avallhum diu, ahiala agilkelnau oiva dehlou ding, achaina leh achateu jeng jong anehchai diu ahi.
21 Manasseh—Ephraim, and Ephraim—Manasseh, Together they [are] against Judah, With all this His anger has not turned back. And His hand is still stretched out!
Manasseh chu Ephraim’in avahva ding, Ephraim chu Manasseh-in avahva ding, Chuleh pangkhom lhon’a Judah avallhum lhon ding ahi. Ahijengvanga Van galsatte Pakai lunghanna dailhadeh ponte. Akhuttum jetsa-a umnalai ding ahi.
