Isaiah 8
1 The LORD said to me, "Take a large tablet, and write on it with a man's pen, 'For Maher Shalal Hash Baz;'
Hahoi, BAWIPA ni, ca thut nahane a phen kalen e buet touh lat nateh, Maher-shalal-hash-baz telah ca cung hoi thut loe ati. Hot hateh, hno lawpnae hoi karangpoung lah raphoe haw tinae doeh.
2 and I will take for myself faithful witnesses to testify: Uriah the priest, and Zechariah the son of Berechiah."
Hat toteh, kapanuekkhaikung lah ao nahanlah, yuemkamcu e kahni touh, vaihma Uriah hoi Jeberkhiah capa Zekhariah tinaw hah ka kaw toe.
3 I went to the prophetess, and she conceived, and bore a son. Then said the LORD to me, "Call his name 'Maher Shalal Hash Baz.'
Hathnukkhu, profetnu koe ka cei teh camo a von teh, ca tongpa a khe. BAWIPA ni a min teh, Maher-sahalal-hash-baz phung loe ati.
4 For before the child knows how to say, 'My father,' and, 'My mother,' the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria will be carried away by the king of Assyria."
Bangkongtetpawiteh, hote camo ni anu apa telah a kaw thai hoehnahlan, Damaskas e bawinae hnopai hoi Samaria koe lawp e hnopainaw teh, Assiria siangpahrang ni koung na lawp awh han ati.
5 The LORD spoke to me yet again, saying,
Hahoi, BAWIPA ni, hete taminaw ni yutyut kalawng e Shiloh palang hah a pahnawt awh teh,
6 "Because this people have refused the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remaliah's son;
Rezin hoi Remaliah capanaw koe a lunghawi awh dawkvah,
7 now therefore, look, the LORD brings upon them the mighty flood waters of the River: the king of Assyria and all his glory. It will come up over all its channels, and go over all its banks.
ransahu hoi cungtalah Assiria siangpahrang a thakaawmpounge palang tui hoi ahnimanaw teh koung ka ramuk sak han. Hote tui ni palang tuiko hoi rangoum pueng dawk muen kawi vaiteh,
8 It will sweep onward into Judah. It will overflow and pass through; it will reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of its wings will fill the breadth of your land, Immanuel.
Judah ram muen the vaiteh, lahuen totouh a ramuk han. A ratheinaw hah kadai vaiteh a ram hah koung a ramuk han. Oe Immanuel, telah ati.
9 Make an uproar, you peoples, and be broken in pieces. Listen, all you from far countries. Prepare for battle, and be shattered.
Oe taminaw, kamkhueng awh nateh taket awh haw. Ram hlanae koe e taminaw, na hnâpakeng awh haw. Taran kâtuk hanelah, kârakueng awh nateh, taket awh haw.
10 Take counsel together, and it will be brought to nothing; speak the word, and it will not stand: for God is with us."
Kâpan awh haw, na pouknae teh banglahai tho mahoeh. Lawk tâtueng awh haw, cak mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut teh kaimouh hoi ao.
11 For the LORD spoke thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying,
Hete miphunnaw ni a dawn awh e lamthung ka dawn hoeh nahanlah BAWIPA ni lawk na dei pouh e teh,
12 "Do not say, 'A conspiracy.' concerning all about which this people say, 'A conspiracy.' And do not fear what they fear, nor be in dread.
hete taminaw e kamkhuengnae koe kamkhueng van hanh. Ahnimouh ni a taki awh e hah taket van hanh, puen awh hanh.
13 The LORD of hosts is who you must regard as holy. He is the one you must fear. He is the one you must dread.
Rasahu BAWIPA hah bari awh. Ahni dueng maha taket awh nateh, puen awh.
14 And he will be a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock that makes them fall to both the houses of Israel, for a trap and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Hottelah na sak pawiteh, ahni teh, nang ni na kângue e lah awm vaiteh, Isarel ram thung kaawm naw hoi Jerusalem kho thung kaawm naw hanelah, rawpnae talung, kamthuinae talung tangkhek hoi karap lah ao han.
15 Many will stumble over it, fall, be broken, be snared, and be captured."
Hahoi hawvah tami kapap ni a kamthui awh han. Rawm awh vaiteh a rek awh han. Kâman awh vaiteh man lah ao awh han.
16 Wrap up the testimony. Seal the law among my disciples.
Hete lawkpanuesaknae hah ka hnukkâbangnaw koe tangoung nateh kâlawk hah tacikkin haw.
17 I will wait for the LORD, who hides his face from the house of Jacob, and I will trust in him.
Jakop imthung koe minhmai ka hrawk e BAWIPA hah kai niteh, ka ngaihawi han.
18 Look, here I am, and the children God has given me as signs and wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, who dwells on Mount Zion.
Kai hoi BAWIPA ni na poe e camonaw heh, Zion mon kaawm e ransahu BAWIPA koehoi e Isarelnaw hanelah, mitnoutnae hoi noutnae lah ao.
19 When they tell you, "Consult with the spirits of the dead and familiar spirits who chirp and who mutter. Shouldn't a people consult with their gods, by consulting the dead on behalf of the living?"
Lawk duemduem hoi sipsap sipsap ka dei e kutkhetkathoumnaw hoi khueyuenaw koe cet awh tet awh pawiteh, taminaw ni amamae Cathut koe pacei kawi nahoehmaw. Kahringnaw ni kadoutnaw koe pacei kawi na maw.
20 Turn to the law and to the testimony. If they do not speak according to this word, surely there is no morning for them.
Cangkhainae hoi lawkpanuesaknae hah thai awh haw. Ahnimouh ni a dei awh e teh, lawk dawk nahoeh pawiteh, ahnimouh koe khodai hoeh rah.
21 They will pass through it, greatly distressed and hungry; and it will happen that when they are hungry, they will worry, and curse by their king and by their God. They will turn their faces upward,
Ram thungvah, lungpout hoi vonhlam hoi a kâva awh han. A vonhlam awh toteh, mahoima runae a kâpoe awh vaiteh, amamae siangpahrang hoi amamae Cathut hah thoebo awh.
22 and look to the earth, and see distress, darkness, and the gloom of anguish. They will be driven into thick darkness.
Hahoi, kahlun lah a moung awh han. Talai lah a khet awh nakunghai, runae hoi hmonae duenghoi akawi. Angnae ohoehnae koe, khohmo thung doeh kâen awh tih toe.
