< Isaiah 14 >

1 For Adonai will have racham ·compassionate love· on Jacob [Supplanter], and will yet choose Israel [God prevails], and set them in their own land. The foreigner will join himself with them, and they will unite with the house of Jacob [Supplanter].
Ahin Pakaijin Jacob son le pah ho chunga hepina aneiding ahi. Israel mite chu a mite hidia a tumbeh a alhen doh thah kit ding ahi. Agam sunguva chengdia ahin lepui kit ding ahi. Chuleh mipi gamtin namtin akona hung diu, Israel mite toh hung kigom khom diu ahi.
2 The peoples will take them, and bring them to their place. The house of Israel [God prevails] will possess them in Adonai’s land for servants and for handmaids. They will take as captives those whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
Vannoi namtin in Pakai mite ahung kile nadiu va ana panpi soh keidiu, agam uva hung cheng hon Israel te jenle a pangdiu ahi. Israel manna’a anapang hon amaho leh amaho hung kiman tup untin, chuleh Israel in agal miteu chunga vai ahop dingu ahi.
3 It will happen in the day that Adonai will give you rest from your sorrow, from your trouble, and from the hard service in which you were made to serve,
Hiche kidangtah nikho le chun, Pakai jin amite lunghem naleh kichatna akon, soh hina leh aki hennao akon choldona apeh diu ahi.
4 that you will take up this parable against the king of Babylon [Confusion], and say, “How the oppressor has ceased! The golden city has ceased!”
Babylon lengpa douna a thu nasei ding, “Mi thahatpa akisumang tai. Henge, na kiletsahna chu akichai tai.
5 Adonai has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers,
Ajeh chu Pakai jin nagit louna hattah chu asuchip in, navaihom dihlou chu asukeh in ahi.
6 who struck the peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, who ruled the nations in anger, with a persecution that no one restrained.
Lunghang in mipi chu akhonna umlou vin na von, chuleh chi le nam ho lunghangin naman chah kheh in, khotona neilou tah in mite nabol genthei e.
7 The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet. They break out song.
Ahin achainan, leiset akicholdon athip chetne. Tun la sa kit thei tante!
8 Yes, the cypress trees rejoice with you, with the cedars of Lebanon, saying, “Since you are humbled, no lumberjack has come up against us.”
Gammanga thingphung ho jengin jong-Cypress thingphung ho leh Lebanon a um Cedar thingphung ho-hiche kipana la hi asadoh uvin: “Nahung phuh lhuh a patnin, eiphuh lhudiu koima hung taponte!”
9 Sheol ·Place of the dead· from beneath has moved for you to meet you at your coming. It stirs up the departed spirits for you, even all the rulers of the earth. It has raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
“Thi umna munna” nahung lhun nin lung kicho thouna aumin ahi. Vannoi lamkai holeh leng len tah ho lhagao chun athinao sottah nungin nangma mu din ading doh sohkei juve. (Sheol h7585)
10 They all will answer and ask you, “Have you also become as weak as we are? Have you become like us?”
Aw khat tah in ahung peng doh un, “Tun keiho hatlou bangin nang jong nahat jou tapoi!
11 Your pomp is brought down to Sheol ·Place of the dead·, with the sound of your stringed instruments. Maggots are spread out under you, and worms cover you. (Sheol h7585)
Nahat naleh nathil bol theina toh kivuitha a nahitai, naleng inpi a selangdah gin atan tai. Lung hohi nangdinga ponpha hintin, chuleh lungmul hohi nadinga samul pon ahi.” (Sheol h7585)
12 How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, who laid the nations low!
“Vanna kon a iti nahung lhah ham, O valpa ahsi, jingkah chapa! Vannoi a chitin namtin sumangpa, leiset chunga din nolhah in na umtai.
13 You said in your heart, “I will ascend into heaven! I will exalt my throne above the stars of God! I will sit on the mountain of assembly, in the far north!
Ajeh chu nang le nang na kihou vin, vanna kaltou ving katin, Pathen ahsi ho chung vum'a ka laltouna ki dong kate. Chuleh mol le lhang apat sah lang gamkai gamla tah a avaipon pang inge nati
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds! I will make myself like haElyon [the Most High]!”
Vanchung sang penna kakal touding, chungnung penpa toh kabah ding ahi nati.
15 Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol ·Place of the dead·, to the depths of the pit (of Abbadon, the unrighteous side of Sheol). (Sheol h7585)
Chusangin, thi umna munna nakipui lhan tin, leiset kotong thuhtah geija nakipui suh ding nahi. (Sheol h7585)
16 Those who see you will stare at you. They will ponder you, saying, “Is this the man who made the earth to tremble, who shook kingdoms;
Amitakip in naven tin, adoh diu ahi 'Hichepa hi hilouham leiset hotlinga leh vannoi lenggam jouse kithinga lha achu?
17 who made the world like a wilderness, and overthrew its cities; who didn’t release his prisoners to their home?”
Amahi hilouham vannoi susea leh agam leiset moh sumang'a chu? Hiche lengpa hilou ham vannoi khopi len tah tah suchim a leh a songkul'a tangho hepina beija bol a chu?
18 All the kings of the nations, sleep in glory, everyone in his own house.
“namtin lengho loupi tah in ama ama kivui na khuh a alum uvin ahi,
19 But you are cast away from your tomb like an abominable branch, clothed with the slain, who are thrust through with the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit (of Abbadon, the unrighteous side of Sheol); like a dead body trodden under foot.
ahin nangma lhan akonna nahung kinodoh ding, pannabei thingbah nabah ding ahi. Mithi long kenga akilho khah banga japi lhan sunga na kileh lhantin, gal a kithat hotoh umkhom ding nahi. Kokhuh sunga nakum suh ding ahi.
20 You will not join them in burial, because you have destroyed your land. You have killed your people. The offspring of evildoers will not be named forever.
Ahiding dol’n vui jong kivuipon nate, ajeh chu chitin namtin nasumangin chuleh namite jong tamtah nathat in ahi. Hitobang migilou son le pah hon jana leh choisangna amulou hel diu ahitai.
21 Prepare for slaughter of his children because of the iniquity of their fathers, that they not rise up and possess the earth, and fill the surface of the world with cities.
Hiche mipa chate hohi thatdoh gamin! Apa u chonset jeh in thidoh uhen! Amaho kipat doh a vannoi leiset gal asat naova lolhing lou hel diu ahitai. Vannoi khopi len hon jong alo khum joulou hel diu ahitai.
22 “I will rise up against them,” says Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], “and cut off from Babylon [Confusion] name and remnant, and son and son’s son,” says Adonai.
Hichehi vanmi janel Pakai chun aseije: “Keima tah Babylon dou nan kana kipat doh e! Achate le atu achate kasuh mang ding ahi, “tin Pakai jin aseijin ahi.
23 “I will also make it a possession for the porcupine, and pools of water. I will sweep it with the broom of destruction,” says Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies].
“Keiman Babylon hi koima umlouna mun kaso a, sumbuchanglit umna mun kasoding ahi. Agam jong chu doplah ngen hiding ahi. Suhgam na muntheh'a agam katheh ngim hel ding ahi. Keima, janel Pakai jin kasei ahi.”
24 Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] has sworn, saying, “Surely, as I have thought, so shall it happen; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:
Thaneipen Pakai hiti hin akitep in ahi: “Kathil gon banga hungsoh doh ding ahi. Ka thulhuh banga hung um ding ahi.
25 that I will break the Assyrian in my land, and tread him under foot on my mountains. Then his yoke will leave them, and his burden leave their shoulders.
Assyria te Israel a aumteng u leh kasuh keh ding; ka mol le lhanga aum teng u leh kachot pha soh kei diu ahi. Ka mite chu amaho soh hita loudiu, anoi uva jong kun talou diu ahi.
26 This is the plan that is determined for the whole earth. This is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
Vannoi leiset adin thilgon khat kaneijin, chitin namtin chunga thutanna umding ahi.
27 For Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] has planned, and who can stop it? His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?”
Van janel Pakai chun aphongdoh tai- koi ham athilgon khel theidinga? Akhut ajahteng koiham a sutang jou dinga?”
28 This burden was in the year that king Ahaz died.
Hiche thuhil hi leng Ahaz thikum in kahenga ahungin:
29 Don’t rejoice, O Philistia, all of you, because the rod that struck you is broken; for out of the serpent’s root an adder will emerge, and his fruit will be a fiery flying serpent.
Kipah thanom hih uvin, nangho Philistine te, naki jepnao mol lhon chu abongtai tin-gal eisatpao leng chu athitai. Ajehchu hiche gul a kona chu guhat tah nei gul hung pengdoh kitding, na sumang diu gul hang tah hung umding ahi.
30 The firstborn of the poor will eat, and the needy will lie down in safety; and I will kill your root with famine, and your remnant will be killed.
Migenthei te keiman kavah ding; genthei vaichaho lungmonga kicholdo diu ahi. Ahin nangvang nelou chalouva katheh dohding chule amoh cheng jong kasuhmang ding ahi.
31 Howl, gate! Cry, city! You are melted away, Philistia, all of you; for smoke comes out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks.
Kotpi achun puldou in kap in! Khopi sunga chun lhasetah in kap in! Kichatah in umun, nangho Philistines te! Thanei tah galsat ho sahlang meikhu banga hung kitol diu ahi. Sepai ho khat cheh ahi galsat lungvil a phut ngen ahiuve.
32 What will they answer the messengers of the nation? That Adonai has founded Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking], and in her the afflicted of his people will take refuge.
Philistine palai ho ipi iseipeh diu ham? Seipeh un, “Pakai in Jerusalem asa doh tai bol gimma umten abang pang dungu kichol do na a ahinnei dingu ahi.
