Isaiah 29
1 Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, The city where David dwelt! Add year to year, Let the festivals go round,
Ariel kho, Ariel kho, Devit ni a tungpupnae kho a rawk toe. Kum touh hnukkhu kum touh pakawi awh. Pawinaw hah patuen patuen to awh.
2 Then will I distress Ariel; Mourning and sorrow shall be there; Yet shall she be to me as Ariel [[the lion of God]].
Hatei, kai ni Ariel kho hah runae ka kâhmo sak han. Hote kho dawk khuikanae hoi cingounae ao han. Hote kho teh ka hmalah Ariel kho patetlah ao han.
3 I will encamp against thee round about, And I will lay siege against thee with a mound, And I will raise towers against thee.
Kai teh nangmouh petkâkalup lah ransanaw ka tungpup sak han. Ramvengimnaw hoi pet na kalup vaiteh, lampawpkhunaw hai ka tai han.
4 Thou shalt be brought down, and speak from the ground, And thy speech shall be low from the dust; Thy voice shall be like that of a spirit under ground, And thy speech shall chirp as from the dust.
Nang teh rahnoum sak lah na o vaiteh, talai thung na deipan han. Rep na tabonae vaiphu thung hoi na lawk a tâco han. Na lawk teh kahrai lawk patetlah talai thung hoi a tâco han. Na lawk teh talai thung hoi paiyaicalah thai lah ao han.
5 Yet shall the multitude of thine enemies be like fine dust; The multitude of the terrible like flying chaff; It shall take place suddenly, in a moment.
Hatei, na tarannaw teh vaiphu patetlah ao awh vaiteh, kamathengnaw hai palek e cahik patetlah ao awh han.
6 From Jehovah of hosts cometh the visitation With thunder, and earthquake, and great noise, With storm and tempest, And flames of devouring fire.
Vaitalahoi pouk laipalah, ransahu BAWIPA ni khoparit lawk, tâlî, puenghoi kacai e lawk, ka kang e hmaipalai naw sin vaiteh, nang koe pai hanelah a tho han.
7 As a dream, a vision of the night, Shall be the multitude of all the nations That fight against Ariel, That fight against her and her fortress, And distress her.
Ariel kho ka tuk e ram pueng dawk e ransanaw, hote kho hoi hote kho hah ka tuk ni teh hote kho ka rektap e tami pueng teh, mang patetlah tangmin e vision patetlah ao han.
8 As a hungry man dreameth, and lo! he eateth, But awaketh and is still hungry; And as a thirsty man dreameth, and lo! he drinketh, But awaketh, and lo! he is faint and thirsty; So shall it be with the multitude of all the nations That fight against mount Zion.
A von ka hlam e ni bu ka ca toe telah a mang a sak eiteh, a kâhlaw toteh, a von toungloung a hlam e patetlah thoseh, tui kahran e ni hai, tui ka nei toe telah a mang a sak eiteh, a kâhlaw toteh tui toung loung a kahran e patetlah thoseh Zion mon ka tuk e ram pueng dawk e ransanaw teh ao awh han.
9 Be in amazement and be amazed! Be blinded and be blind! They are drunk, but not with wine; They stagger, but not with strong drink!
Hmoung tet awh nateh, hmoung ngam awh. Mit dawn awh nateh, hmawt laipalah awm awh. Misur net laipalah parui awh. Yamu net laipalah rawrawcu laihoi cet awh.
10 For Jehovah hath poured upon you a spirit of slumber; He hath closed your eyes, the prophets, And covered your heads, the seers;
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni inae hoi kâkuen e muitha hah nangmae lathueng a awi vaiteh, nangmae profet mitnaw hah tabuem vaiteh, na hmunae lûnaw hah a ramuk han.
11 And so every vision is to you as the words of a sealed book, Which is given to a man that is skilled in writing, Saying, “Read this, I pray thee”; But he answereth, “I cannot, for it is sealed.”
Nangmouh hanelah vision pueng teh, tacikkin e ca thung e lawklungnaw patetlah ao. Hot hah cakathoumnaw koe poe vaiteh, hete ca hah atu touk haw, telah na tetpawiteh, ahni ni, hete ca teh tacikkin lah ao dawkvah, kai ka touk thai hoeh, telah bout ati han.
12 Or, if he give it to one that is not skilled in writing, Saying, “Read this, I pray thee,” He answereth, “I am not skilled in writing.”
Hahoi hote ca hah, ca kathoum hoeh e koe bout poe nateh, hete ca hah atu touk haw, telah na tetpawiteh, ahni ni, kai teh ca ka thoum hoeh bout ati han.
13 Therefore saith the Lord, Since this people draweth near to me with their mouth, And honoreth me with their lips, While their heart is far from me, And their worship of me is according to the commandments of men,
Bawipa ni, hete miphunnaw ni pahni hoi kai koe rek na hnai awh teh, amamae pahni hoi kai hah na pholen awh. Ahnimae lungthin teh kai hoi a kâhla poung. Ahnimouh ni tami ni sak e kâlawk hoi kai hah na taki awh.
14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to deal marvellously with this people; Marvellously and wonderfully, For the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, And the prudence of the prudent shall be hid.
Hatdawkvah, khenhaw! Hete miphun koe kângairu hno buet touh hnukkhu buet touh hah puenghoi kângairu sak nahanelah, bout ka patue han rah. Ahnimouh thung e a lungkaangnaw e lungangnae teh a rawk han. Kathoumnaw e thoumnae hai a kahma han telah ati.
15 Woe to them that hide deep their purposes from Jehovah, Whose work is in darkness; That say, Who seeth us? Who knoweth us?
BAWIPA ni panue hoeh nahanelah pouknae teh kadung poung lah a hro awh teh, amamae sakyoenae teh hmonae koe a sak awh teh, kaimouh hah apinimouh na hmu va, kaimouh hah apinimouh na panue va, telah ouk ka tet e taminaw teh a yawthoe awh.
16 Alas, your perverseness! Is the potter to be esteemed as the clay, That the work should say of its maker, He made me not? And the thing formed say of him that formed it, He hath no understanding?
Nangmouh ni palet lah na o sak awh toe. Hlaam ka bo e hah amhru patetlah pouk kawi na maw. Sak lah kaawm e ni kasakkung hanelah, ahni ni kai na sak e nahoeh, telah ati kawi na maw. Sakyoe lah kaawm e hno ni, ka sakyoe hanelah, ahni teh banghai panuek hoeh, ati kawi na maw.
17 Is it not yet a very little while, And Lebanon shall be changed to a fruitful field, And the fruitful field be esteemed a forest.
Lebanon mon teh talai ahawi lawhmuen lah ao teh, talai kahawi e lawhmuen teh ratu lah ao nahan sica doeh a ngai toe.
18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, And out of mist and darkness shall the eyes of the blind see.
Hatnae hnin dawkvah, hnâ ka thai hoeh e naw ni Cakathoung e lawk a thai awh han. Mitdawnnaw ni vuivainae hoi hmonae dawk hoi hlout awh vaiteh, mit a hmu awh han.
19 The afflicted shall exceedingly rejoice in Jehovah, And the poor shall exult in the Holy One of Israel.
Lung kârahnoum e naw teh, BAWIPA dawk lunghawinae hah a katha lah bout a hmu awh han. Ayâ rahak kamathoe e taminaw teh, Isarelnaw e kathounge Bawipa dawk a lunghawi awh han.
20 For the oppressor hath come to naught; the scoffer is destroyed; And all that watched for iniquity are cut off;
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka mathengpaan e tami teh kahmat vaiteh, ka dudam e tami teh a kahma han.
21 Who condemned a man in his cause, And laid snares for him who defended himself in the gate, And with falsehood caused the righteous to fail.
Yonnae sak hanelah a pawp teh, lawk lahoi tami buetbuet touh a yon sak teh, kho longkha koe ahni hanelah karap ka patung pouh e tami hoi ayawmyin lah tami kalannaw e ham hah ka lawm e tami pueng teh, raphoe lah ao awh han.
22 Therefore concerning the house of Jacob thus saith Jehovah, He that redeemed Abraham: No more shall Jacob be ashamed, And no more shall his face grow pale.
Hatdawkvah, Abraham ka rungngang e BAWIPA ni, Jakop miphun hoi kâkuen lah, Jakop miphun teh a hnukkhu kayanae hoi minhmai mathoenae hai awm mahoeh toe.
23 For when his children behold the work of my hands in the midst of them, They shall honor my name. They shall honor the Holy One of Jacob, And reverence the God of Israel.
Ahnimouh ni kai ni ka sak e hno a hmu awh navah, kaie ka min hah amamae lungui vah a thoungsak awh han. Jakop miphun e kathounge BAWIPA teh a thoung tet awh vaiteh, Isarel Cathut teh a taki awh han.
24 They that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, And the obstinate shall receive instruction.
Lam ka phen e naw ni thaipanueknae hoi kâkuen e muitha hah coe awh vaiteh, lunghminhoehnae hoi ka cingou e naw ni hai cangkhainae lawk hah a dâw awh han telah ati.
