Isaiah 18
1 Ah, the land of the rustling of wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia:
Ngaijin, Ethiopia-kong lha jap ging banga ging jeju gam, Nile vadung ho gal’a um,
2 that sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of papyrus upon the waters, [saying], Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation tall and smooth, to a people terrible from their beginning onward; a nation that meteth out and treadeth down, whose land the rivers divide!
palaiho a vadungu lhang lang geija mangang tah a kong’a ahin sollu. Cheuvin palai mangang ho! Hiche thuhil hi vun nampet misangho gapeu vin, anai le gamla a um tijat umte, nam tha hat leh gal jou mite, agam u vadung hon a hopkhen mite henga chun,
3 All ye inhabitants of the world, and ye dwellers on the earth, when an ensign is lifted up on the mountains, see ye; and when the trumpet is blown, hear ye.
Nangho vannoi ja chengho, leiset chunga hing jousen-lhang chunga kagal ponlap kahin khaisang teng, veuvin! Kelcha ki kahin mut teng, ana ngaijun!
4 For thus hath the LORD said unto me, I will be still, and I will behold in my dwelling place; like clear heat in sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.
Ajehchu Pakaijin hitin eiseipeh in; “Ka umna akona thip chetna kahin vetding-nipi laiya oltah a ahungsat cheh cheh banga, jingkah daitui chang le mim kikhop tup jouva a hung lhah banga khu”.
5 For afore the harvest, when the blossom is over, and the flower becometh a ripening grape, he shall cut off the sprigs with pruning-hooks, and the spreading branches shall he take away [and] cut down.
Gal nasat pat masanga jong, nathil gonho lengpithei banga ahung minset teng, Pakai jin bahche a ache kim ding ahi athah hung kehdoh ho chu. Abah hung kipha jal ho achelhah a apampai ding ahi.
6 They shall be left together unto the ravenous birds of the mountains, and to the beasts of the earth: and the ravenous birds shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them.
Muthong holeh gamsaho dinga na sepai gal hang ho loujaova athisa kidalha ding ahiuve. Nipi lai sung se amu thong hon thilong ho chunga kisa lel diu ahi. Phalbi lai sungse a agu ho aket diu ahi.
7 In that time shall a present be brought unto the LORD of hosts of a people tall and smooth, and from a people terrible from their beginning onward; a nation that meteth out and treadeth down, whose land the rivers divide, to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, the mount Zion.
Hiche phatteng a gamsung u vadung in ahop khen, mi sang leh vun namte, sah le lhangin akichat te, thahattah te akon, Pakai tha neipen in thilpeh amuding ahi. Hiche thil pehding ho chu van janel Pakai umna mun Jerusalem a ahin choidiu ahi.
