Te khohnin neh te vaeng tue ah Judah neh Jerusalem thongtla te ka mael rhoe ka mael puei ni.
2 And I will gather all the nations and I will bring down them to [the] valley of Jehoshaphat and I will enter into judgment with them there on people my and inheritance my Israel which they have scattered among the nations and land my they have divided up.
Namtom boeih te ka coi vetih amih Jehoshaphat kol la ka suntlak puei ni. Ka pilnam neh ka rho Israel kongah amih te lai ka soeh thil ni. Namtom taengah a yaal uh tih ka khohmuen he a tael uh dongah.
3 And to people my they have cast a lot and they have exchanged the boy for the prostitute and the girl they have sold for wine and they have drunk.
Ka pilnam ham hmulung a naan uh. Te dongah tongpaca te pumyoi la a paek uh tih hutaca te ok ham la misurtui la a yoih uh.
4 And also what? [are] you to me O Tyre and Sidon and all [the] territories of Philistia ¿ recompense [are] you repaying to me and or? making recompense [are] you to me swift quickly I will return recompense your on head your.
Tyre, Sidon neh Philistia saa boeih aw nang neh kai balae benbo? Kai soah aka thuung la na tiing uh nim? Kai he nan thuung uh cakhaw nangmih tiing bangla na lu ah tlek kan thuung paitok ni.
5 That silver my and gold my you took and desirable things my good you took to own temples your.
Ka cak neh ka sui na loh uh tih ka ngailaemnah hnothen te na bawkim la na khuen uh.
6 And [the] people of Judah and [the] people of Jerusalem you sold to [the] people of the Greeks so as to remove far away them from on own territory their.
Judah ca rhoek neh Jerusalem ca te Greek ca taengla na yoih uh tih a Khorhi dong lamloh amih te na lakhla sak.
7 Here I [am] about to rouse them from the place where you sold them there and I will return recompense your on head your.
Amih yoih nah hmuen lamloh amih te pahoi ah ka haeng coeng he. Te dongah na thaphu te na lu ah kan thuung ni.
8 And I will sell sons your and daughters your in [the] hand of [the] people of Judah and they will sell them to [the] Sabeans to a nation distant for Yahweh he has spoken.
Na canu na capa rhoek te Judah ca rhoek kut ah ka yoih vetih amih te Sabean taeng neh khohla namtom taengah a yoih uh ni tila BOEIPA loh a thui.
9 Proclaim this among the nations consecrate a war rouse the warriors let them draw near let them go up all [the] men of war.
He he namtom taengah doek uh laeh. Caemtloek te ciim uh laeh. Hlangrhalh rhoek haenghang uh laeh. Thoeih uh saeh lamtah caemtloek hlang boeih te paan uh saeh.
10 Beat plowshares your into swords and pruning knives your into spears the weak [man] let him say [am] a warrior I.
Na tuktong te cunghang la, na vin te khaw cai la dae uh. Tattloel long khaw ka, “Hlangrhalh,” ti saeh.
11 Hurry and come O all the nations from round about and they will gather there bring down O Yahweh warriors your.
Kaepvai lamkah namtom boeih capit uh lamtah paan uh lamtah tingtun uh laeh. BOEIPA aw na hlangrhalh rhoek pahoi ah ael sak laeh.
12 Let them be roused and they may go up the nations to [the] valley of Jehoshaphat for there I will sit to judge all the nations from round about.
Haenghang saeh lamtah namtom te Jehoshaphat kol la cet uh saeh. Kaepvai kah namtom boeih te laitloek hamla kana ngol ni te.
13 Send out [the] sickle for it has grown ripe [the] harvest come tread for it is full [the] winepress they are overflowing the wine-vats for [is] great evil their.

14 Multitudes multitudes [are] in [the] valley of decision for [is] near [the] day of Yahweh in [the] valley of decision.
Oltloeknah tuikol ah tah hlangping la hlangping kak coeng ni. Oltloeknah tuikol ah BOEIPA kah khohnin yoei coeng.
15 Sun and moon they have become dark and [the] stars they have withdrawn brightness their.
Khomik neh hla hmuep vetih aisi rhoek loh a aa a hloh ni.
16 And Yahweh from Zion he will roar and from Jerusalem he will give forth voice his and they will shake heaven and earth and Yahweh [will be] a refuge for people his and a stronghold for [the] people of Israel.
BOEIPA tah Zion lamloh kawk tih Jerusalem lamloh a ol a huel. Vaan neh diklai hinghuen dae BOEIPA tah a pilnam ham hlipyingnah neh Israel ca ham lunghim la om.
17 And you will know that I [am] Yahweh God your [who] dwells in Zion [the] mountain of holiness my and it will be Jerusalem a holy place and strangers not they will pass in it again.
Te dongah nangmih kah Pathen BOEIPA kamah he ka cimcaihnah tlang Zion ah kho a sak tila ming uh. Jerusalem he hmuencim la om vetih kholong loh te te koep caehpah mahpawh.
18 And it will be on the day that they will drip the mountains sweet wine and the hills they will go milk and all [the] ravines of Judah they will go water and a spring from [the] house of Yahweh it will go forth and it will water [the] wadi of Shittim.
Te khohnin a pha vaengah tlang kah thingtui cip vetih mol lamkah suktui long ni. Judah sokca boeih te tui long ni. Tuisih te BOEIPA im lamloh phuet vetih Shittim soklong te a suep ni.
19 Egypt a desolation it will become and Edom a wilderness of desolation it will become from [the] violence of [the] people of Judah whom they shed blood innocent in land their.
Egypt tah khopong la poeh vetih Edom khaw khosoek khopong la om ni. Judah ca rhoek kuthlahnah loh a khohmuen kah ommongsitoe thii te a long sak.
20 And Judah for ever it will remain and Jerusalem to a generation and a generation.
Judah tah kumhal duela kho a sak vetih Jerusalem khaw a cadilcahma neh cadilcahma duela om ni.
21 And I will leave unpunished blood their [which] not I left unpunished and Yahweh [is] dwelling in Zion.
A thii dongah ka hmil mueh te ka hmil ni. BOEIPA he Zion ah kho a sak.
