< Zechariah 5 >

1 I looked up again, and I saw a scroll that was flying [through the air].
Keima ka dahdoh kit in kavet leh lekhajol lengle khat kamun ahi.
2 The angel asked me, “What do you see?” I replied, “I see a flying scroll that is [huge], (10 yards/9 meters) long and (5 yards/4.5 meters) wide.”
Vantil chun “Ipi namum” eiti. Keiman jong ka donbut in lekhajol lengle kamun, adunglam khuchang somthum chuleh availam khutchang somlenga tobang ahi.
3 Then he said to me, “On this scroll is written the [words that Yahweh is speaking to] curse the entire country. On [one side of] the scroll it is written that every thief will be banished. On [the other side] it is written that everyone who tells a lie when he is solemnly promising to tell the truth will also be banished from the country.
Hichun aman eiseipeh in, “Hiche lekhajol hi leiset pumpia hung potdoh gaosapna ahi. Hiche lekajol dangkhat hin, koi hileh agucha a chu hiche gamma kon ahi kideldoh ahi ati, adangkhat hin koi hileh jou a kihahsel jong chu hiche gamma konna hi kidel doh ding ahi” ati.
4 The Commander of the armies of angels says, ‘I will send [copies of] this scroll to the places where thieves live and to the houses of those who use my name when they solemnly promise to tell the truth. [The copies of] this scroll will stay in their houses, until those houses and all their wood and stones are destroyed.’”
Chuleh hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin hitin aseije, Keiman guchaho jouse insunga hiche sapset nahi kalhun sah ding ahin, chuleh kamin panna jou leh nalla kihehse ho insunga jong sapsetna kalhunsah ding ahi. Chuleh hiche ka sapsetna hi a insung uva umden intin, a insung pumpiu athing asong pumma ka suhmang ding ahi.
5 Then the angel who had been talking to me came closer to me and said, “Look up and see what is appearing!”
Hijou chun eiki houlimpi Vantil chu ahung in ka kom mah hitin aseije, “Khodah inlang ipi hunglhung ding ham galdot in” eiti.
6 I asked him, “What is it?” He replied, “It is a big basket [for measuring grain]. But it represents the sins that everyone in this nation has committed.”
“Ipi ham” tin kadong in ahileh aman eihin donbut in, hiche pocha hi chang tena ahin, hiche gamsung pumpia miho jouse chonset na ahi”ati.
7 Then [the angel] lifted the basket’s cover, [which was made] of lead. There was a woman sitting inside the basket!
Hijou chun hiche pocha kikhuna thihgih chu ahongdoh in ahileh asunga chun numei khat ana touvin ahi.
8 The angel said, “She represents the wicked things [that people do].” Then the angel pushed her back into the basket and closed the very heavy lid [again].
Vantil chun ahin seije,” hiche numeinu hi gitlouna vetsahna ahi, atin aman asinna thihtum gihchun alesin kitnin akhahchah tai.
9 Then I looked up and saw two women in front of me. They [were flying toward us], with their wings spread out in the wind. Their wings were [large], like [SIM] storks’ wings. They lifted the big basket up into the sky.
Hijou chun keiman chunglang kagah ven ahileh, lhaving nei numeini huilah a keima komlanga ahungleng lhon in ahi. Amani hin vacha kang bang in lha anei lhon in hiche pocha chu adamdoh lhon in vanlai jollah a lhon toupi hon tan ahi.
10 I asked the angel who had been talking to me, “Where are they taking that basket?”
Hiche pocha chu hoilang’a akoi lhon hitam tia Vantil chu ka doh leh,
11 He replied, “[They are taking it] to Babylonia to build a temple for it. When the temple is finished, they will set the basket there on a pedestal [for people to worship it].”
Aman hitin ei donbut’e, “Babylon khopi langa hiche pocha dinga chu hou in asah peh lhon ding ahi, hiche Hou-in chu akisah jou teng leh hiche pocha chu akitunna ding munna chu atun lhon ding ahi,” ati.
