Isaiah 17
1 The burden of Damascus: "Look, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it will be a ruinous heap.
Damascus chung chang thu’a hitihin thuhil ahunge: ven, Damascus khopi hi hungmang thah ding ahi! Mangthai thil kise lom hung hiding ahi.
2 Her cities will be abandoned forever. They will be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
Aroer khopiho dalhah in hung um mintin, kelngoi hon lhat lena a aneidiu chuleh asuboi diu umlouva kol diu ahi Anodoh ding mijong umlou ding ahi.
3 The fortress shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Aram. They will be as the glory of the children of Israel," says YHWH of hosts.
Israel kulpi sunga um khopi ho jong suhmangin hung um intin, Damascus leng thanei najong kisubei ding ahitai. Syria'a amoh chengsen Israel chate loupina kinung lahpeh dinmun hung chang diu ahi,” tin van janel Pakai chun aphongdoh tai.
4 "It will happen in that day that the glory of Jacob will be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh will become lean.
Hiche nikho teng chuleh Israel loupina hung thim cheh cheh intin; a tahsa hoi na jong moh man jeng ding ahi.
5 It will be like when the harvester gathers the wheat, and his arm reaps the grain. Yes, it will be like when one gleans grain in the Valley of Rephaim.
Chang le min aki khoptup jouteng leh agamsung chu chang le mim lou hung bang ding ahi. Mi chen louna gamthip hintin, Rephaim phaichama chang le mim ki khoptup jouva lou ho hung bang ding ahi.
6 Yet gleanings will be left there, like the shaking of an olive tree, two or three olives in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outermost branches of a fruitful tree," says YHWH, the God of Israel.
Amite hon lhomcha bou dalhah a umdiu, theichang tamtah kilo nunga lamvai tah a lhang themkhat kikhen bang diu ahi. Ni ham thum ham abah sangpenna um muntin, li le nga chu abah noilanga ana kithethang inte,” tin Pakai, Israel Pathenin aseije.
7 In that day, people will look to their Maker, and their eyes will have respect for the Holy One of Israel.
Akhon nileh min asempa ahin vetdiu, chuleh amit nun Israel Mitheng Pa lang ahin ngat diu ahi.
8 They will not look to the altars, the work of their hands; neither shall they respect that which their fingers have made, either the Asherim, or the incense altars.
Milim semthu hoa kona panpina avet tah loudiu, akhut tah uva asemu milim hojong ahoutah loudiu ahi. Asherah chunga jong bohkhup talou heldiu, milim houna ding asah u houin sunga jong ahou tah louhel diu ahi.
9 In that day, their strong cities will be like the forsaken places of the Hivites and the Amorites, which were forsaken from before the children of Israel; and it will be a desolation.
Akho piu lentah ho gammang koima umna lou bangding, Israel te phat masa peh a ahunglut jeh uva Hivites teleh Amor miten adalhah u gam bang ding ahi. Mi chenlouna gammang nasatah hiding ahi.
10 For you have forgotten the God of your salvation, and have not remembered the rock of your strength. Therefore you plant pleasant plants, and set out foreign seedlings.
Ipi jeh enem itileh nahuhhing thei Pathen akonin na kihei mange. Nasel thei songpi chu na sumil tai. Man neitah muchi ho nahin poh lut theija, lengpi thei phatah na tu thei nading ahi.
11 In the day of your planting, you hedge it in. In the morning, you make your seed blossom, but the harvest flees away in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow.
Na phu nikho leh ahung kedoh pai thei nading; Ahi, na tuni jingkah mama leh ahung pah lhah thei nading, ahin lengpithei ga khatcha loding umlou ding ahi. Khop tup ding nanei chasun chu lung gentheina dimset leh thoh joulou natna hiding ahitai.
12 Ah, the uproar of many peoples, who roar like the roaring of the seas; and the rushing of nations, that rush like the rushing of mighty waters.
Ngaijin! Chitin namtin galsat sepai ho twi khanglen gin kithong leng lung banga agin lullul u khu. Ngaijin thahattah'a hung kithong jenjun ho khu twi khanglen kinon gin abangu ve.
13 The nations will rush like the rushing of many waters: but he will rebuke them, and they will flee far off, and will be chased like the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like the whirling dust before the storm.
Ahin twi khanglen pang sukeh gin kithong bang jongleu, Pathenin asuhthip diu, chuleh amaho chu lhaimang diu ahi. Hui jin changvai amutcheh bang diu, ching peijin leivui apeimang tobang ding ahi.
14 At evening, look, terror. Before the morning, they are no more. This is the portion of those who plunder us, and the lot of those who rob us.
Nilhah teng Israel in tijah tah a angajing diu, ahin kho hung vahteng agalmi ho u ana thiji taove. Hiche hi eichom hou dihtah a achandiu dol changu va ahin, eisumang hou chan dinga lom chang uva ahi.
