Isaiah 30
1 Woe to the rebellious children, saith Jehovah, Who form plans, and not from me, And make covenants without my spirit, That they may add sin to sin!
“Ipi lung genthei nan na ngao ham, thu'a nunglou kachate ho,” tin Pakai in aseije. “Keija toh akikalin thilgon nanei un ahi. Ka lhagao in adeilou hotoh kigop khomna nanei jun, hichun na chonset nao na sesang toupeh taovin ahi.
2 Who go down into Egypt, Without inquiring at my mouth, To seek refuge in Pharaoh's protection, And to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
Ajehchu keima donglou vin, nache suh un Egypt panpina naga thum uve. Pharaoh huhbitna chu natahsan un ahi. Ama lima chun nakisel gu uvin ahi.
3 The protection of Pharaoh shall be your shame; Your trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
Ahin Pharaoh natahsan jeh uva suh molphou'a naumdiu, amachunga nakingap jeh uva jachatna a naum diu ahi.
4 For their princes are at Zoan, Their ambassadors have arrived at Hanes.
Ahin thaneina Zoan chan gei a keh beh in um jeng jongleh a noidou ho Hanes gei hung lhung ta jong leu,
5 But they are all ashamed of a people that do not profit them; That are no help and no profit, But only a shame and a reproach.
ama tahsan jouse chun jumna amudiu ahi. Aman nakithopiu malah a na suhmol phoudiu ahi.”
6 The loaded beasts go southward. Through a land of anguish and distress, Whence come forth the lioness, and the fierce lion, The viper, and the flying fiery serpent; On the shoulders of young asses they carry their wealth, And on the bunches of camels their treasures, To a people that will not profit them!
Negev a gancha ho chung changa thuhil kahenga hitin ahung lhunge; Kholjin hon tijat umtah in nelgam ahin jot nun, Egypt gei adin olin akitolui- ahaonao jouse sangan ho chunga ahin pouvin, agou luhou sangongsao chunga ahin pouve-Egypt ten aventup nadiuva abonna pehding atiu ahi. Gamthip gam ahin jot un, keipi bahkai achal le anu umna mun, gulse ho leh gunei gul ho umna mun ho ahin jotpao vin ahi. Hiche jouse hi ahin, Egypt in imacha nahin pehle lou ding ahi.
7 Vain and empty is the help of Egypt; Wherefore I call her, The Blusterer that sitteth still.
Egypt kihahselna ho chu panna bei ahibouve! Hijeh chun, Rahab tin kakouve-setna neilou Dragon.
8 Go now, write this on a tablet before them; Note it down upon a book, That it may remain for future times, A testimony forever!
Tun chenlang hiche thucheng hohi sun lhan. Lekhabu a sun lut in. Phat kichai kah adinga hettoh sah a pang diu ahitai.
9 For this is a rebellious people, false children; Children who will not hear the law of Jehovah;
Hichu, hiche mite hi milouchal midouhat ho ahiuvin, Pakai thuhil lunglutna ngaiding nomlou ahiu ve.
10 Who say to the seers, “See not!” And to the prophets, “Prophesy not right things; Speak to us smooth things, Prophesy falsehood!
Mitvah neiho jah'a hitin asei uve, “Themgao ho jah a, Thudih neiseipeh hih uvin. Ngainom um chacha neisei peh uvin. Jouthu leh semthu ho neisei peh un.
11 Turn aside from the way, Depart from the path, Remove from our sight the Holy One of Israel!”
Lung jin nahi sumil soh in. Nalampi jim akonin kichondoh in Israel Mitheng Pa chungthu neiseh peh u, ngadoh tan.”
12 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel: Since ye despise this word, And trust in oppression and perverseness, And lean thereon,
Hiche hi Israel Mitheng Pan adonbutna ahi: “Kathu seipeh ho namusit jeh leh nabolgim ho, jou le nal natahsan joh jeh in,
13 Therefore shall this iniquity be to you Like a breach ready to give way, That swelleth out in a high wall, Whose fall cometh suddenly, in an instant.
phulou helouva vangsetna nachunga hung chu ding ahi-bangho pohdoh a, khikeh a lhuh tobang ding ahi. Apet pet in hung chim lhan tin, bong hel hulin hung lha tan te.
14 It is broken like a potter's vessel, Which is dashed in pieces and not spared, So that among its fragments not a sherd is found to take up fire from the hearth, Or to dip water from the cistern.
Bel keh banga naki suchip ding ahi-achip dan dan chu halneo khat a jong mei am kiloh theilou, tuikul a kon'a jong tui themkhat chabeh jong kithal thei lou ahi.
15 For thus said the Lord Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel: By a return and by rest shall ye be saved; In quietness and confidence is your strength;
Thaneipen Pakai, Israel Mitheng Pan, hitin aseije: “Ka henga hung kinung le hobou, keija kicholdo hobou huhdoh a na umdiu ahi. Lungneng sel leh tahsan nachu na thahat nao ahi. Ahin khatcha nachan lou diu ahi.
16 But ye would not. Ye said, “No! we will bound along upon horses”; Truly ye shall bound along in flight. “We will ride upon swift coursers”; But they shall be swift that pursue you.
Nangman naseiyin, ' Ahipoi Egypt akon panpina kamu diu ahin, galsat nadinga sakol hattah ho eipeh diu ahi,' nati ahin, gangtah leh hattah namu diu chu ahileh nagal mi teuvin hattah leh gangtah a nahin del diu chu ahi bouve!
17 A thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one, And ten thousand at the rebuke of five, Till what remains of you shall be as a beacon on the top of a mountain, As a banner upon a hill.
Alah uva khatnin ahindel ding chu nangho sangkhat hiding ahi. Alah uva nga in nabonu va najamsah soh diu ahi.

18 And yet will Jehovah wait to be gracious to you, And yet will he arise to have mercy upon you; For Jehovah is a righteous God; Happy are all they who wait for him!
19 For, O people of Zion, that dwellest in Jerusalem, Thou shalt not always weep! He will be very gracious to thee at the voice of thy cry; No sooner shall he hear it, than he will answer thee.
Aw Jerusalem'a cheng, Zion mite, nangho naka kit loudiu ahitai. Ahenga panpina nathum uleh Ama chu mi lungset them ahi. Na kanau awgin chu Aman adonbut teitei ding ahi.
20 Though Jehovah hath given thee the bread of distress, and the water of affliction, Yet shall thy teachers be hidden from thee no more; But thine eyes shall see thy teachers.
Pakai in an adin vangsetna, chuleh don din thoh natna nahin pe jong lechun, nahil din nakom'a umjing nalai di ahi. Na hil'a chu namit tah'a namu ding ahi.
21 And thine ears shall hear a voice behind thee, Saying, “This is the way, walk ye in it!” When ye turn aside to the right hand, or to the left.

22 Ye shall treat as defiled the silver coverings of your graven images, And the golden clothing of your molten images, Ye shall cast them away as an unclean thing; Away! shall ye say to them.

23 Then will he give rain for thy seed, With which thou shalt sow the ground, And the bread-corn, the produce of the land, shall be rich and nourishing; Then shall thy cattle feed in large pastures.
Chuteng Pakai in gojuh a phatthei naboh ding ahi, thil tuphat ahiteng. Kidang tah'a agaho naki khop khom ding, chuleh na ganchate nehding hamhing ninglhing setna umding ahi.
24 The oxen also, and the young asses, that till the ground, Shall eat well-seasoned provender, Which hath been winnowed with the shovel and the fan.
Loukhoi bongchal ho leh sangan hon anpha anehdiu, avai vang huijin alhoh mang ding ahi.
25 And on every lofty mountain, And on every high hill, Shall be brooks and streams of water, In the day of the great slaughter, When the towers fall.
Hiche nikho teng leh na galmi hou akitha a, insang ho ahung lhuh teng, vadung tui ho mol le lhang jouse hung longlha ding ahi.
26 Then shall the light of the moon be as the light of the sun, And the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, [[As the light of seven days, ]] When Jehovah bindeth up the bruises of his people, And healeth the wound which they have received.
Lha chu nisa vah bangin vah intin, chuleh nisa vah chu jat sagi'a vah cheh ding ahi- nisagi sunga vah chu nikhat'a vah tobang ahi! Hitichu hiding ahi Pakai in amite sudam dinga akipatna, akisuh khah nao maha hou damna ahin peh teng.
27 Behold, the name of Jehovah cometh from afar, His anger burneth, and violent is the flame, His lips are full of indignation, And his tongue like a devouring fire.
Ven! Pakai chu mun gamlatah akonin ahunge, lungsa pum leh meikhu nasatah in atomkhum in ahi. Amuh hoa lunghan na adimmin; athuho, meiyin asuhmang toh abange.
28 His breath is like an overflowing torrent, That reacheth even to the neck; He will toss the nation with the winnowing-fan of destruction; He will put a bridle upon the jaws of the people, that shall lead them astray.
Ahaina hu sat chu tuisoh'a galmi ho ngong chan aphah bangin akisunglha abange. Chitin namtin kiletsah ho chu suhmang dinga asepchil ding ahi. Nahkhao akhi peh'a, mangthai dinga ahoidoh ding ahi.
29 But ye shall then sing as in the night of a solemn festival; Your heart shall be glad, like his who marcheth with the sound of the pipe To the mountain of Jehovah, to the rock of Israel.
Ahin Pathen miten golnop phatah kibolna'a la kisa ho banga kipa la asah diu ahi. Theile mutpan mun thenga Pathen houva cheho honkhat Jerusalem, Pakai lhangchung-Israel te Songpi'a apui banga, kipana' adimset dingu ahi.
30 Jehovah will cause his glorious voice to be heard, And the blow of his arm to be seen, With furious anger, and flames of devouring fire; With flood, and storm, and hailstones.
Chuleh Pakai in aloupina aw ajahsah ding ahi. Abanthahat thaneina avetsah ding ahi. Meikong in aval lhum bangin hung kum lhan tin, van gin holeh gelchang lentah tah hung lhabanga hung kum lhading ahi.
31 For by the voice of Jehovah shall the Assyrian be beaten down; He will smite him with the rod.
Pakai thupeh dungjui a Assyrian te ahal hal 'a kehdiu ahi. A leng tenggol'a ajeplhuh gamdiu ahi.
32 And as often as the appointed rod shall strike, Which Jehovah shall lay heavily upon him, It shall be accompanied with tabrets and harps; And with fierce battles will he fight against him.
Hitia Pakai in amol'a ajep uva, gotna apeh teng uleh, amiten selangdah atum uva, khong akhet uva golnop abol diu ahi. Abanthahat ahin doptouva, Assyria te ahin dou ding ahi.
33 For long hath the burning place been prepared; Yea, for the king hath it been made ready; The pile is made deep and broad; There is fire and wood in abundance; The breath of Jehovah, like a stream of brimstone, kindle it.
Topheth-meikou na mun-Assyria lengpa dinga phatsotna gontohsa kikoi ahitai; akigo nading thingho sangtah in akiselom tai. Pakai haina hu chun, meikong hung kikhodoh banga ahin halkou ding ahi.
