< Joel 3 >

1 For behold, in those days and at that time, When I shall bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem,
Hiche thilsoh laitah ding chu Pakaiyin aseije, “Chuteng chuleh keiman Juda gamsung leh Jerusalem khopi hamphatna kasemphat teng,
2 I will assemble all the nations, And will bring them down it to the valley of Jehoshaphat, And there will I contend with them for my people and inheritance, Israel; Because they scattered them among the nations, And divided my land among themselves.
Leiset pumpia galmi jouse Jehosaphet phaichama kakhop khom ding, Hichea chu thu katan ding ahi. Ajeh chu amahon Israel nam hi namtin vaipi laha alhoh thangsoh keiuvin, ka gamsung geijin akihomtauve”.
3 Yea, they cast lots for my people, And gave a boy for a harlot, And sold a damsel for wine to drink.
Chuleh kamite chu soh dingin vang asanuvin, pasal chapang ho jong numei noti ho toh akilhehjiuvin, nungah khat geijin jong lengpitwi man din akijohjiuve, chule lengpitwi chu akham sasan adon jiuve.
4 What have ye to do with me, O Tyre and Sidon, And all the borders of Philistia? Will ye retaliate on me? Or will ye do anything against me? Swiftly and speedily will I bring back your doings upon your own head.
Kei douna a ipibol nahiuvem, Tur le Sidon gam chule Philistia? Kei dinga nangho hi ipia kibol nahiuvem? Kei chunga phula dinga kigong nahiuvem? Nanghon kachunga phulah ding nagotuva ahileh, keiman jong natohnau chu hetman loukaha nachunguva ka sunlhahpeh diu ahi.
5 Ye have taken my silver and my gold, And have carried into your palaces my precious, goodly things;
Ajeh chu nanghon keima dangka leh sana nalauvin, kakhol tupsa thil manlutah tah ho jeng jong na pomanguvin gamchom mite indoi houna a na koitauve.
6 The sons also of Judah, and the sons of Jerusalem, Ye have sold to the Grecians, That ye might remove them far from their border.
Nanghon Juda mite le Jerusalem khomite chu Greek mite henga na joh monguvin, gamgi kal lang peha nathah mong sohtauve.
7 Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them, And I will return your injury upon your own head;
Ahin lah keiman na johmong namun uva kona ka nung lah kit ding ahi.
8 I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, And they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a nation afar off; For Jehovah hath spoken it.
Keiman nachateu numeiho le pasalho jong Juda mite koma ka joh doha, amahon Jong hetphah lou Seba gam mite henga ajoh mong kit diu ahi. Ajeh chu Pakai keiman kana seisa ahitai.
9 Proclaim ye this among the nations: “Prepare war! Stir up the mighty ones! Let all the warriors draw near; let them come up!”
Gaphong jaluvin hiche namtin vaipi laha. “Galsat dingin kigontauvin, gollhang thahat jouse kikoudohun, mithahat gollhang jouse kitilkhou soh kei’uvin.
10 Beat your ploughshares into swords, And your pruning-hooks into spears; Let the weak say, I am strong!
Na sehcha’u chemjamin kikhenun, na kangkuiju chu tengchan kikhen unlang, milhasam tah jong chun “Galhat kahije” tin seijuhen.
11 Assemble yourselves and come, all ye nations round about; Gather yourselves together! Thither, O Jehovah, bring down thy mighty ones!
Kintahin kikhom loiyun, akimvella um natin vaipi jouse phaichama hung kihom loiyun. Chuleh tun, Aw Pakai nagal mite koudoh in.
12 Let the nations rise and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat! For there will I sit to judge all the nations around.
Namtin vaipi amaho leh amaho hungkon uhen, Jehosaphet phaicham a Kijot uhen, Keima, Pakai in hichea chu katouva Thu katan ding ahi.
13 Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe; Come and tread, for the wine-press is full; The vats overflow; For their wickedness is great!
Koite kigotin chang-at ding aminin akuitai. Hung inlang lengpiga hung chilin, lengpiga chilna adimsoh tai. Bel le kong jouse jong aletlha soh tai. Ajeh chu hiche mite agit louna’u anasa behseh jengin ahi.
14 The multitudes, the multitudes in the valley of judgment! For the day of Jehovah is near in the valley of judgment.
Thutanna phaicham a asang asangin angah tai, Pakai nikho chu hung lhungvah ding ahitai.
15 The sun and the moon are darkened, And the stars withdraw their shining.
Nisa le lhathah hung thim ding, chule ahsi ho jong vahta louding ahi.
16 Jehovah also will roar from Zion, And utter his voice from Jerusalem; The heavens and the earth shall shake. But Jehovah will be a refuge to his people! A strong-hold to the sons of Israel.
Pakai Awgin Ziona kithong ding chuleh Jerusalema kona keh lhading chuleh Van le leiset kiling ding, ahin Pakai chu amite kiselna hiding, Israel mite dinga kiselna kulpi hiding ahi.
17 Then shall ye know that I am Jehovah your God, Dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain; And Jerusalem shall be holy; Strangers shall pass through her no more.
Hiteng chuleh keima na Pakai na Pathenu, Zion lhang thenga cheng kahi neihetdoh dingu ahi. Jerusalem a imatih chana theng jing jeng ding, chuleh gamchoma galmiten imatih chana ajo lou ding ahi.
18 In that day shall the mountains drop down new wine, And the hills shall flow with milk. And all the streams of Judah shall flow with water. A fountain shall come forth from the house of Jehovah, That shall water the valley of Shittim.
Hiche nikho teng chuleh mol chunga kona Lengpitwi lhum hung longa, lhangdung jouse jong bongnoi hung long ding. Juda gamsung’a vacha hom jouse twi dim soha, Jerusalem Pakai Hou in Thenga kona, Acacias phaicham geija hung long lha ding ahi.
19 Egypt shall be a waste, And Edom a desolate wilderness, For their violence against the sons of Judah; For they shed innocent blood in their land.
Ahinlah Egyp gamsung ahom keova hung lum ding, Edom jong ahom keova Gamthip hung soh ding, ajeh chu amahon Juda mite chu pumhat jengin anaboluvin, agamsung uva themmona bei mite thisan anasouvin ahi.
20 But Judah shall be inhabited for ever, And Jerusalem from generation to generation.
“Ahinlah Juda gamhi a imatih chana amite dimset ding, chuleh Jerusalem Jong akhang khanga amiten kichenpi ding ahi.
21 And I will avenge their blood, which I have not avenged, And Jehovah will dwell upon Zion.
Keiman kamite asuhkhel nau ka ngaidam ding chuleh keima Pakai in Jerusalem a, ka mite jouse toh ka in ka sah ding ahi.”
