Nahum 1
1 The oracle, on Nineveh, —the scroll of the vision of Nahum, the Elkoshite.
Hiche hi Nineveh khopi chung chang thudola thuphondoh, Elkosh khoa pat Nahum kitipan themgaovin thil’amu banga athil amu ho kisutna lekhabu ahi.
2 A GOD jealous and avenging, is Yahweh, an avenger, is Yahweh, and a lord of wrath, an avenger, is Yahweh towards his adversaries, and, a retainer [of anger], is he to his foes.
Pakai hi Pathen engsetah leh phula jing Pathen ahi. Aman a-lunghan teng phulah abol jin, Pathen in ama doudal te chung’a phu alah ding, A ma lunghanna chu a galmite chung a abuhlhah ding ahi.
3 Yahweh, is slow to anger, but great in vigour, He will not leave, unpunished, as for Yahweh, in storm-wind and in tempest, is his way, and, clouds, are the dust of his feet.
Pakai hi kintah’a lunghang lou Thahattah ahi. Chule ajeh beijin Pakaiyin themmo nahi amoh ngaidam jipoi. Pakai hi chimpei le khopi huija alamlhan, Meilhang jouse jong hi akengphanga leivui jeng ahibouve.
4 Who rebuketh the sea and hath made it dry, and, all the streams, hath he dried up, —withered are Bashan and Carmel, Even the bloom of Lebanon, is withered:
Twikhanglen jeng jong aphoa ahileh twi akanghel jitan, vadung jouse jong abonchan atingkang soh hel jin ahi; chule Bashan phai le Carmel mol jong anitah lhon in agop lha jitan, Lebanon lhang noulai jong agop paiji tai.
5 Mountains, have trembled because of him, and, the hills, have melted, —and the earth, hath lifted itself up, at his presence, the world also, and all who dwell therein.
Pakai masanga molsang ho jeng jong akihot lingji tauvin, Thing lhang gam ho jong angimsoh jitan ahi; Chule Pakai angsunga leiset jong ahomkeovin Aum jitan, Vannoi pumpi leh asunga cheng jouse jong abeisoh jitauve.
6 Before his indignation, who shall stand? And who shall abide the glow of his anger? His wrath, hath been poured forth like fire, and, the rocks, have been broken down because of him.
Pakai a-lunghan teng koiham Ama masanga ding ngam ding? Alung han deu jeju chu koiham athoh ngapcha ding? Ajeh chu alunghan teng mei-al kisung lha tobang ahin, Songpi jouse jong hi Pakai jeh-in apoh keh jitauve.
7 Good is Yahweh, as a protection in the day of distress, —and one who acknowledgeth them who seek refuge in him.
Pakai hi nunnem tah ahin, Gim le hesoh nikhoa kisel na kulpi ahi; Amaa kiselji mihem ho chu Pakaiyin amelchih sohkei ahi.
8 But, with an overflow rolling on, a full end, will he make of them who rise up against him, —and, his foes, will he pursue into darkness.
Ama kidoupite vang chu Twisoh hattah letjeng junga hunglong chu atolmang sah hel ding, Amelmate jong chu muthim khojing lah’a adel lut ding ahi.
9 What can ye devise against Yahweh? A full end, is he making, —Distress, shall not rise up twice:
Ipi dinga Pakai dounaa thilgon naneiju ham? Pakaiyin achaina hel’a asuh manghel ding; akisatpite chunga chu nivei phulah khel-a khatveija asuhgam hel ding ahi.
10 Though they were like thorns intertwined, and as drunkards drenched with their drink, yet have they been devoured, like stubble fully dry.
Ama kisatpite chu lingleh khao kihel chom tobanga, mangthah bep diu, chule changpol gosa banga mangthah ahitauve.
11 Out of thee, hath one come forth—plotting, against Yahweh, wickedness, —A counselor of the Abandoned One.
Pakai douna dinga tohgon neija, hangsan tah’a thuseija pang, nangmaa kon mihem khatbe hung louham?
12 Thus, saith Yahweh, Though they be in full force, and so in great numbers, yet, even so, have they been cut off, and have passed away, —If I humble thee [once], I will not humble thee again.
Pakai Pathen in hiti hin aseije: “Amaho hi thahat’u hen lang mi tamu jongleh abonchauva kisatgam’uva kitolmang del diu ahi. Nangma vang bol gentheijin ana um jongleh chun, tun nabol genthei kit tapong’e.
13 Now, therefore, will I break his yoke from off thee, —and, thy fetters, will I tear off.
Chule tua ama namkol jon napoh chu kaloilhah peh ding, Chule na kikanna thihkhao jouse jong ka botan peh soh hel ding ahi,” ati.
14 Then will Yahweh give command concerning thee, None of thy name shall be sown any more, —out of the house of thy gods, will I cut off carved image and molten image, I will appoint thy grave, for thou art of little esteem.
Chule nangma Assyria te chung chang thudol’a Pakaiyin thu apen, namin pu ding cha le nao hung peng kitlou ding ahitai; ajeh chu Pathen lim nasemthu nahou naa kona milim kilhajol hole kikhengjol ho aboncha ka paimanga, chule nangma kivuina ding lhankhuh, jachatna tampi kasempeh ding nahi,” ati.
15 Lo! upon the mountains, The feet of one, who bringeth Good Tidings! who publisheth Prosperity! Celebrate, O Judah, thy pilgrim festivals, fulfil thy vows, for, not again, any more, shall the Abandoned One, pass through thee, he hath been wholly cut off.
Ven molchung lah’a Kipana thupha choija chamna thu samphongpa kengphang te ni khu! Vo Judah na kut bol ding jouse kibol’in chule nakitepna bulhih soh keijin, Ajeh chu nangma lam’a migiloupa hung kit talou ding ahi, Ama chu kisumang hel ahitai.
