Isaiah 33
1 Terrible things will happen to you [people of Assyria]! You have destroyed [others], [but] you have not been destroyed [yet]. You have betrayed/deceived [others], [but] you have not been betrayed/deceived [yet]. When you stop destroying [others], others will destroy you. When you stop betraying/deceiving others, [others] betray you.
Ipi lunghemnan nangao ham nangho Assyria te, mi sumang ho, ahinla nangho leh nangho a itih in nakisumang kha hih helu vin ahi. Midang najou lhep jiuvin, ahinla nangho lheplha in na um kha hih uve. Mi suhmang nangah teng uleh nangho nakisumang diu ahi. Mi lheplhah nangah tengu leh nangho nakilhem lhadiu na hiuve.
2 Yahweh, be kind to us, because we have patiently waited for you [to help us]. Enable us to be strong every day, and rescue us when we have troubles.
Ahin Pakai, nei hepiu vin, ajehchu nangma ngah a um kahiuve. Nisim in kaban thahat nun hungpangin lang, hahsatna'a kaum teng uleh eihuhdoh diuvin hung pangin.
3 Our enemies run away when they hear your voice. When you stand up and show that you are powerful [IDM], the people of all nations flee.
Na awgin ajah jeh un melmate a jam uve. Nahung dindoh teng leh chitin namtin ajam jitao ve!
4 [And after our enemies have been defeated], we, your people, will take away all our enemies’ possessions like [SIM] caterpillars and locusts strip off all the leaves of plants.
Lungmul, peng palep leh khaokho hon louho leh lengpi gui ho akeova alha bang uva Assyria galsat sepai hojong lhu uva, ima hilou diu ahitai!
5 Yahweh is greater than anyone else, and he lives in heaven, and he will rule justly and righteously in Jerusalem.
Pakai chu alet a len hihen. Van mun'a cheng hijong leh aman Jerusalem chu thudih leh chonphatna in na asemdoh ding ahi.
6 [When that happens], he will enable you to live securely/safely; he will fully protect your possessions, he will enable you to be wise and to know [all that you need to know]; and revering Yahweh will be [like] [MET] a valuable treasure for you.
Hiche nikho teng leh ama chu na kingap detchet na abul hintin, huhhing'a ninglhing setna kikoi khol, hetna leh chihna napeh ding ahi. Pakai gin chu nadinga gou hiding ahi.
7 [But now], look, our brave men are crying out in the streets; our ambassadors [have gone to other countries to make peace treaties], [but they will] cry bitterly [because they will not succeed].
Ahin tun vang nagal hang hou lhang phongin akap uvin ahi. Chamna semho nommo tah in lunglha in akap uve.
8 No one travels on our roads [DOU]. [The leaders of Assyria] have broken/disregarded their peace treaty [with us]; they despise the people who made those treaties, and they do not respect anyone.
Na lampiu ho jong akamdel tai; Koi macha alamlha tapouve. Assyrian ten chamna dinga kinopto nachu asukeh taovin, ahetoh a pangho masanga kitepna ananei uchu anahsah tapou vin ahi. Koima cha gin le ja anei pouve.
9 The land [of Judah] is dry and barren. The [cedar trees in] Lebanon are drying up and decaying. The Sharon [Plain along the coast] is now a desert. There are no more leaves on the trees in the Bashan and Carmel [areas].
Israel gam chu puldou nan achup lhatai. Lebanon jong jachat nin ananglha tai. Sharon phaicham chu tun gamthip gam ahitai. Bashan leh Carmel chom in ana umtai.
10 Yahweh says, “Now I will begin to show that I am very powerful [DOU].
Ahin Pakai in aseije: “Tun keima kadindoh ding ahi. Ka thahat naleh kahatna tua hi kavetsah ding ahi.
11 You [people of Assyria] make plans that are [as useless as] [MET] chaff and straw. Your breath will become a fire that will burn you up.
Nangho Assyria miten hampa gop ahilouleh kolbu kung tailou ima nasodoh pouve. Nahai nau hu chu mei hung kisoh intin, nahin vallhum dingu ahi.
12 [Your] people will be burned until only ashes remain [MET] like [SIM] thornbushes are cut down and burned up in a fire.
Ling hamboh a kisatlhah a, meiya akilelut bangin na mite jong kachai keidiu ahi.
13 You people who live far away and you people who live nearby, pay attention to what I have done and realize that I am [very] powerful.”
Ipi kabol doh ham phaten ngaijun, nangho chitin namtin gam la tah'a umho! Chuleh naicha'a umhon kathahat hi hetpeh in nei neijun!”
14 The sinners in Jerusalem will tremble because of being very afraid; godless people will be terrified. [They say], “None of us can [RHQ] remain alive because this fire is burning everything; it is like the fire on Yahweh’s altar that will burn forever!”
Jerusalem'a um michonse ho tija in akithing thing uve. Pathen houlou hochu tijatna nasatah in aman taove. “Hitobang mi vallhum jengthei meikong hi kon athoh jou mong ding ham?” tin akap uvin ahi. “Hitobang meikong nasatah akon'a koiham asohcha ding?”
15 Those who act honestly and say what is right, those who do not try to become rich by (extortion/forcing people to give them money), those who do not try to get bribes, those who refuse to listen to people who are planning to murder someone, those who do not join others who urge them to do what is wrong,
Mi kitah leh mitheng ho, joule nal'a phatchomna ding nomlou ho, nehguh deilou jeh'a munchom gam latah'a umdoh ho tolthat dinga guhthim'a thilgon ho thusei ngaipeh lou'a da chah khet jeng ho, thilpha lou boldinga lhepna jouse mangcha guho akon'a amit u sing jeng ho-
16 they are the people who will live safely [MTY]; they will find places to be safe in the caves in the mountains. They will have plenty of food and water.
mun sang'a cheng ding hochu amaho hi ahiuve. Mol le lhang 'a um songpi hochu akulpiu va pangding ahi. Neh le chah hin kithah peh diu, chule tui jong ning lhing setna aneidiu ahi.
17 You [SYN] [people of Judah] will see the king wearing all his beautiful [robes], and you will see that he rules a land that extends far away.
Lengpa aloupina jouse toh namit tah uva namu diu, chuleh gamla tah'a sao gam leiset chu namit'a namu diu ahi.
18 When you see that, you will think about when you were previously terrified, [and you will say], “[The officers of Assyria] who counted the tax money that we were forced to pay to them [have disappeared] [RHQ]! Those men who counted our towers [are gone] [RHQ]!
Hiche tijat umtah nikho hi nahin nunggel doh diu, chuteng nahin doh diu chu, “Insangho sim toh'a pang Assyrian milun ho chu hoiya um uva hitam? I khopi u alhuh nunga thil le lo ki chomdoh ching tup'a pang lekhabu koitup hochu hoilai ja um uva hitam?”
19 Those arrogant people who spoke a language that we could not understand are no longer here!”
Migilou ho leh mikhanse hon hetkhah lou leh kidang tah paochom athohou hi navel mukit tah louding ahi.
20 [At that time], you will see Zion Hill, the place where we celebrate our festivals; you will see that Jerusalem has become a place that is calm and safe. It will be [secure], [like] [SIM] a tent [that cannot be moved because] its ropes are tight and its stakes are firmly in the ground.
Zion chu golnop phatah bolna mun'a nahin lemu joh dingu ahi. Jerusalem chu chamna leh bitkeija umna khopi'a nahin mudingu ahi. Khoilupon in, akhao kiloi detchet leh akhom ho chah thet na kitung tobang ding ahi.
21 Yahweh will be our mighty God; he will be [like] [SIM] a mighty river that will protect us because [our enemies] will not be able to cross it; no one will be able to row across it and no ships will be able to sail across it.
Eiho dinga Pakai chu Hatchungnung Pen hung hiding ahi. Amachu vadung vailentah in bitkei'a akoi, galmi hon ahin palkai joulou u bangdi ahi. Galmi ho kong jong kitolna thei hilou ding ahi.
22 Yahweh is our judge; he is the one who gives us laws, and he is our king. He will rescue us.
Ajehchu Pakai chu eithutan pao ahin, dan eipeuva leh i lengpao ahije. Aman eikhohsah untin, eihuhdoh diu ahi.
23 The ropes on our enemies’ boats will hang loose, their masts will not be fastened firmly, and their sails will not be spread out. The treasures that they have seized will be divided [among us, God’s people], and even lame [people among us] will get some.
Galmite kongtol napon akilhamin, kongleh lang achi pin, manchah hojong pannabei ahitai. Anei agou houjong Pathen mite kihom diu ahitai. Elbai ho jengin jong achan vou u akilah diu ahi!
24 And the people in Jerusalem will no [longer] say, “We are sick,” [because Yahweh] will forgive the sins that have been committed by the people who live there.
“Kadam pouvin chuleh panpi bei kahiu ve,” tia Israel miten asei tahlou diu ahi. Ajeh chu Pakai in achonset nao angaidam ding ahitai.
