< Isaiah 18 >

1 Ah, the land of the rustling of wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia;
Kush palangnaw namran lah, cahucahu kacai e ratheinaw onae ram teh a yawthoe.
2 that sends ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of papyrus on the waters, saying, "Go, you swift messengers, to a nation tall and smooth, to a people feared near and far, a nation strong and conquering, whose land the rivers divide."
Hothateh, tuipui lam hoi thoseh, tui van vah, lungpum longnaw hoi thoseh, patounenaw patoun e ram lah ao. Karang poung e kaoungkung naw, ka rasang ni teh a tak kâpi e miphun, kahnai kahlat kaawm e taminaw ni taki e miphun, palangnaw kamphinae koe e talai dawk kaawm e, a tha kaawm ni teh reprep ka coungroe e miphun koe cet awh haw.
3 All you inhabitants of the world, and you dwellers on the earth, when a banner is lifted up on the mountains, look. When the trumpet is blown, listen.
Talaivan kaawm e taminaw hoi talai dawk kaawm e taminaw, monnaw dawkvah mitnout a ung awh toteh, nangmouh ni na hmu awh han. Mongka ueng toteh nangmouh ni na thai awh han.
4 For YHWH said to me, "I will be still, and I will see from my dwelling place, like the clear heat in sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest."
Bangkongtetpawiteh BAWIPA ni, kai koe a dei e teh, duem ka o teh, kanî raeng dawk hoi ka ang poung e khumbei patetlah thoseh, canga tue kâannae tueng koehoi tadamtui kabawt sak e tâmai patetlah thoseh, ka onae hmuen koehoi ka khet han telah ati.
5 For before the harvest, when the blossom is over, and the flower becomes a ripening grape, he will cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks, and he will cut down and take away the spreading branches.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a tue a pha hoehnahlan a pei ka pei niteh, a pei teh kahmin e a paw lah ao toteh, a dawnnaw hah ramalongkawi hoi bouk vaiteh, a kangnaw hai koung bouk teh tâkhawng lah ao.
6 They will be left together for the ravenous birds of the mountains, and for the animals of the earth. The ravenous birds will summer on them, and all the animals of the earth will winter on them.
Hotnaw pueng teh, mon vah moi kacate tavanaw hoi talai dawk e saringnaw hanelah ka cawi sak han. Moi ka cat e tavanaw ni ahnimae van vah, kompawi tue a loum sak awh vaiteh, talai dawk e saring pueng ni ahnimae van vah kasik tue a loum sak awh han.
7 In that time, a present will be brought to YHWH of hosts from a people tall and smooth, even from a people awesome from their beginning onward, a nation that measures out and treads down, whose land the rivers divide, to the place of the name of YHWH of hosts, Mount Zion.
Hate tueng dawkvah, ka rasang ni teh a tak kâpi e miphun, kahnai kahlat kaawm e taminaw ni taki e miphun, palangnaw kamphinae koe e talai dawk kaawm ni teh a tha kaawm reprep ka coungroe e miphun teh, kalvan ransanaw e BAWIPA min onae Zion mon dawk, ayawmpoehnonaw hah a sin awh han.
