Isaiah 47
1 "Come down, and sit in the dust, virgin daughter of Babylon; sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of the Chaldeans: for you shall 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; remove your veil, strip off the train, uncover the leg, pass through 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 Your nakedness shall be uncovered, yes, your shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and will spare no man,"
Nang teh, caici lah na o han, Yeirai na po han. Moi ka pathung vaiteh, apihai ka pasai mahoeh.
4 says our Redeemer; the LORD of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel.
Maimouh na karatangkung min teh, ransahu BAWIPA, Isarelnaw e kathounge Cathut tie doeh.
5 "Sit in silence, and go into darkness, daughter of the Chaldeans; for you shall no more be called the mistress 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 angry with my people, I profaned my inheritance, and gave them into your hand: you showed them no mercy; on the aged you have very heavily laid your 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 You said, 'I shall be a mistress forever;' so that you did not lay these things to your heart, nor did you 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 "Now therefore hear this, you who are given to pleasures, who sit securely, who say in your heart, 'I am, and there is no other besides 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 you in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood; in their full measure shall they come on you, in spite of your many sorceries and the potency of your spells.
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 you have trusted in your wickedness; you have said, No one sees me; your wisdom and your knowledge, it has perverted you, and you have said in your heart, 'I am, and there is no other besides 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 disaster will come on you; you won't know when it dawns: and calamity will fall on you; you will not be able to put it away: and desolation shall come on you suddenly and unexpectedly.
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 your enchantments, and with the multitude of your sorceries, in which you have labored from your youth; if so be you shall be able to profit, if so be you may 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 You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels; those who conjure the heavens, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save you from the things that shall come on you.
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 Look, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: it shall not be a coal to warm at, nor a fire to sit before.
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 the things be to you in which you have labored: those who have trafficked with you from your youth shall wander everyone to his quarter; there shall be none to save you.
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.
