Revelation 18
1 After these things, I saw another messenger, coming down out of heaven, —having great authority; and, the earth, was illumined with his glory.
Acun käna khankhawngsä akce mat khankhaw üngka naw kyum law se ka hmuh. Acun naw khyaihbahnak aktäa ta lü a hlüngtainak naw khawmdek ksü se vai bäiki.
2 And he cried out, with a mighty voice, saying—Fallen! fallen! is Babylon the Great, and hath become a habitation of demons, and a prison of every impure spirit, and a prison of every impure and hated bird;
Acunüng angsang yea, “Babalung mlühnu pyüpyeh päng ve, pyüpyeh päng ve. Khawyai hea awmnak la mtüihkhehkia ngmüimkhya he naküta khui, mcimpyühnak mjüküm la mtüihei phyakia kha kse hea ngceinaka khuia kya päng ve.
3 Because, by reason [of the wine] of the wrath of her lewdness, have all the nations fallen, and, the kings of the earth, with her, did commit lewdness, and, the merchants of the earth, by reason of the power of her wantonness, waxed rich.
“A hüipawmnaka phäha mlungsonaka capyittui cun khyangmjü he naküt naw aw päng ve u. Khawmdek sangpuxang he naw a hüipawmnak üng mkhyekatpüi ve u. Khawmdek khawhthem suijapki he naw ania am düt khawhkia hlimtuinak bawimang na ve u,” tia ngpyangki.
4 And I heard another voice out of heaven, saying—Come forth, my people, out of her, —that ye may have no fellowship with her sins, and, of her plagues, that ye may not receive;
Acunüng khankhaw üngka kthai akce naw, “Ka khyang he aw, a katnak üng am nami bawibainak hnga vaia la a khuikhanak üng am nami khuikhanak hnga vaia, a vei üngka naw cen law u.
5 because her sins were joined together as far as heaven, and God hath remembered her unrighteous deeds.
“A katnak he khankhaw däa pha lü ngbum ve, Pamhnam naw am dawki a bilawh he jah sümki.
6 Render ye unto her, as, she also, rendered, and double [the] double, according to her works, —in the cup wherein she mixed, mix, unto her, double, —
“A ning jah awmih püi kunga kba awpüi be u lü, A bilawha kba anghngiha thung u. A ning jah kbe peta kbe üng a hama anghngiha kbe pe be ua.
7 As much as she glorified herself, and waxed wanton, so much give, unto her, torment and grief: —because, in her heart, she saith—I sit a Queen, and, widow, am I not, and, grief, in nowise shall I see!
“Amät mhlünmtai kyu lü hüipawmnak üng a hlimtuia mäiha, khuikhanak la mlungnatnak pe u. A mlung k’uma ‘Sangpuxangnua ka ngawki! hmeinua am kya nawng, mlungnatnak am ka yah khai,’ tikia kyase.
8 Therefore, in one day, shall have come her plagues, —death and grief and famine; and, with fire, shall she be burned up; —because, mighty, is the [Lord] God who hath judged her.
“Acunakyase mhmüp mat mat üng khuikhanak he, natnak hlikhaü, mbawikyahnak la khawtuia setnak he naw kpha law khai. A pumsa pi mei üng mkhiha kya khai. A ngthumkhyakia Bawipa Pamhnam cun ahmäi khyaihkia kyaki ni.
9 And they shall weep and wail over her—shall the kings of the earth who, with her, committed lewdness and waxed wanton, —as soon as they see the smoke of her burning, —
“Am dawkia katnak ani am atänga bilo u lü hüipawmnak üng hlimtuikia khawmdek sangpuxang he cun ani uikia mei khu hmu u lü kyap law khai he.
10 afar off, standing, because of their fear of her torment, saying—Alas! alas! the great city! Babylon, the mighty city! That, in one hour, hath come thy judgment.
A khuikhanak üng ami khuikha hnga vai kyüh u lü a thuknak üngka naw, ‘Babalung mlühnu na jo se ve! na jo se ve! Naji matca üng na khana ngthumkhyanak pha law ve,’ ti u lü mbawikyap law khai he.
11 And, the merchants of the earth, weep and grieve over her, because, their cargo, no one, buyeth any more:
“Khawmdek khawhthem suijapki he pi u naw ami khawhthem am jah kheih se, acunkba mbawikyap law hnga khai he.
12 cargo of gold, and silver, and precious stone, and pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and every article of ivory, and every article of wood most precious, and of copper, and of iron, and of marble,
“Ami khawhthem he cun xüi he, ngui he, lung phuküi he, vatha he, mvajih he, jihsen he, jiktah he, kphyajih he, thing ng'ui he, mvüi ha am pyana khawhthem he, thing phuküi he, nghngaw he, mthi he la mvuilung kbawk am pyana kbe he;
13 and cinnamon, and spice, and incense, and unguent, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and [cargo] of horses, and of chariots, and of bodies, and lives of men.
thingn’ui hawk, ng'uinghnam he, mei üng mkhia ng'uinghnam he, situi ng'ui he, mura he, capyittui he, olip ksitui he, khai he, cang he, sepat he, to he, ngse he, nghle he, m'ya he la khyanga xünnakea kyaki.
14 And, the fruit of the coveting of thy soul, hath departed from thee, and, all things rich and bright, have perished from thee; and, no more, in anywise, for them, shall they seek.
“Akdaw na mlunga vanei khawi naw ning cehta bäih ve, bawimangnak la ngtoki naw ning cehta päng ve; jah hmuh be vaia am kya ti ve u.
15 The merchants of these things, who were enriched by her, afar off, shall stand, because of their fear of her torment, weeping, and grieving,
“Acuna mlüh üng jawituknak pawh u lü bawimang lawkia ngui ksuiki he cun ania khameia khuikhanak ami kyüha phäha athuknaka ngdüi khai he. Mbawi kyap u lü,
16 as they say—Alas! alas! the great city! She that was arrayed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stone, and pearl, —
‘Mlüh kyäpnu, jihktah la jih senmdunu la jih sendaknu jah thuiawi lü xüi la lung phuküi la vatha am nglanglawi khawiki cen, ihlawka kyühkseki ni, ihlawka kyühkseki ni!
17 That, in one hour, hath been laid waste, such great wealth as this! And, every pilot, and every passenger, and mariners, and as many as, by the sea, carry on traffic, afar off did stand,
Naji matca üng khawhthem acujah sen amdanga kya law ve,’ tia kyap law khai he. Acunüng mlawngmah he, mlawng üng kdung hüki he, mlawng mawngki he, mliktui üng khuikhawmki he cun athuknak üng ngdüi u lü,
18 and they cried out, seeing the smoke of her burning, saying—What city is like unto the great city?
ani uikia meiksa üngka naw khu lawkia meikhu teng u lü, ‘Hina mlühnua mäih ia mlüh kyäpnu awm khai aw?” tia kyap u lü ngpyangki he.
19 And they cast dust upon their heads, and cried out, weeping and grieving, saying—Alas! alas! the great city! Whereby were made rich all that had ships in the sea, by reason of her costliness, —that, in one hour, she hath been laid waste!
Acunüng kyahnak la mlungnatnak mah maha, ‘mliktui üng mlawng taki he khawhthem jah pe lü jah bawimang sakia mlühnu, naji matca üng pyehei lawki hin, kyüh kse ve! kyüh kse ve!’ tia, ngpyang u lü, mvut ami lu khana phyang u lü, kyap u lü, ami mlung na law khai.
20 Be glad over her, thou heaven! And ye saints, and ye apostles, and ye prophets! For that God hath exacted your vindication from her.
Khankhaw la nangmi Pamhnama khyang he aw, ngsä he, sahma he jekyai ua, Pamhnam naw nami hama ania khana ngthumkhya law pe ve,” ti se ka ngjak.
21 And one mighty messenger lifted a stone, as it were a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying—Thus, with main force, shall be cast down, Babylon the great city, —and in nowise be found any more;
Acunüng khankhawngsä akyan kcang mat naw ksumnua mäiha ngbaükia lungnu jäk lü mliktui üng tawnki naw, “Babalung mlüh kyäpnu hinkba tawna kya law khai, u naw am hmu be ti khai.
22 And sound of harp-singers, and musicians, and flute-players, and trumpeters, —in nowise be heard in thee any more; and any artisan [of any art], —in nowise be found in thee any more; and sound of millstone, —in nowise be found in thee any more;
Tengtäng tumki he, khyanga kthai he, pülün tum theiki he, kpun tum theiki hea tumkhawn cen nang üng u naw am ngja be ti khai. Kut am sawngsa theiki he pi nang üng am ngdang be ti khai he. Ksum suknaka kthai pi nang üng u naw am ngja be ti khai.
23 And light of lamp, —in nowise shine in thee any more; and voice of bridegroom and bride, —in nowise be heard in thee any more; because, thy merchants, were the great ones of the earth, because, with thy sorcery, were all the nations deceived:
Situi meikdäi pi nang üng am däi be ti khai. Cangla la Cangpyanga kthai pi u naw am ngja be ti khai. Na khawhthem suijapnak he cun khawmdek avan üng johit mahki he ni. Hleihlak lü na suikyam binak am khawmdek khyang he naküt na jah mhleimhlak naki cen,
24 And, in her, blood of prophets and saints, was found, —and of all who had been slain upon the earth.
sahma hea thisen, Pamhnama khyang hea thisen la khawmdek khana jah hnima thisen he naküt cun nang Babalung üng hmuha kyase ning mkhuimkhaa kyaki,” ti se ka ngjak.
