Nahum 2
1 He who dashes in pieces has come up against you. Keep the fortress! Watch the way! Strengthen your waist! Fortify your power mightily!
Nagal mipan suhmang ding ngaiton ahung in, kihongphan Pasal pha pha kulpia pansah-in lang lampi vephan; chule nakong kigah in lang, nathahat pan in pang in.
2 For Yahweh restores the excellency of Jacob as the excellency of Israel, for the destroyers have destroyed them and ruined their vine branches.
Ajeh chu Pakaiyin Israel lal loupina banga Jacob lal loupina jong asemphat kit ding ahi; chule michomgam’a pang hon achom ngimsel’uva ahalsi sia asuh manguva amonsa alupsah-u ahitai.
3 The shield of his mighty men is made red. The valiant men are in scarlet. The chariots flash with steel in the day of his preparation, and the pine spears are brandished.
Chule asepai gal-hat ho chu alumu asan soh keijin, A sepaiten abonchauvin pon san-ao akisil sohkeijun. Kangtalai jouse jong meisi bang in apah lah lah-in, Galsat dia akigoltoh tenguleh akipat kal’u angah lel’ui.
4 The chariots rage in the streets. They rush back and forth in the wide ways. Their appearance is like torches. They run like the lightnings.
Chule kholai dunga kangtalai jouse aki hon lul lul’un, Veng ningkoi dung jousea asuh lhai atou lhaijun, Chule meikong kidevah bangin achanthe thu’uvin, chujongleh kolphe vah bangin aphelap lap’uve.
5 He summons his picked troops. They stumble on their way. They dash to its wall, and the protective shield is put in place.
Chuleh vaibol’a pang ho akoukhom’uvin, ache nauva akipal lhugam tauve; chule amahon pal phungla adel loijun, asangkhol chol’u akihoh doh bangin akijal dep dop e.
6 The gates of the rivers are opened, and the palace is dissolved.
Chujongleh vadung kelkot phung jouse akihong soh tan, Leng inpia mite a lungthoi soh tauve.
7 It is decreed: she is uncovered, she is carried away; and her servants moan as with the voice of doves, beating on their breasts.
Lengnu avon asut lhauvin akai mang tauve, chuleh ajenle a pang nu-ngah ho akap kap’uvin, vahuite ham athouvin amao setsot’un, a-op achum achum jeng uvin ahi.
8 But Nineveh has been from of old like a pool of water, yet they flee away. “Stop! Stop!” they cry, but no one looks back.
Chuleh Nineveh khopi hi twikul lentah hija asunga twi jouse long kanghel tobang ahitai. “Kho ngaijin! Kho ngaijin!” tin mihonpi chun asam asam jeng uvin, koima chala akinung hei tapoi.
9 Take the plunder of silver. Take the plunder of gold, for there is no end of treasure, an abundance of every precious thing.
Chule dangka kichom uvin lang Sana jong kichom’uvin! thil kikhol ho hi chom joutih aum tapon, chule gou hijat thil manlu ho jong hi abei thei tapoi.
10 She is empty, void, and waste. The heart melts, the knees knock together, their bodies and faces have grown pale.
Hijeh chun chom uvin langchom ngimhel’un ahomsan koijun! Mihem lungthim alha lhopsoh tan, mihem khupbuh jouse akithing sohhel tai, mihem jouse akong akhasoh-in, mihem jouse maiadup soh hel tai!
11 Where is the den of the lions, and the feeding place of the young lions, where the lion and the lioness walked with the lion’s cubs, and no one made them afraid?
Chule sakei bahkai ho kihenna hong chu hoilai hiya? chule sakei bahkai noute kihenna chu akosung chu hoilai ham? Sakei bahkai ten aneh diu sa akipohlut uva, asukin ding beihel’a anoute toh aneh nau chu hoilai ham?
12 The lion tore in pieces enough for his cubs, and strangled prey for his lionesses, and filled his caves with the kill and his dens with prey.
Sakei bahkaipin anoute neh kham dingbep akitha jouvin, sakei bahkai pan jong api dingin sahing phabep akoije; Akosung jong chu sahing athasa adim set’in, chule ahong sung sahin botelsa adimset’e.
13 “Behold, I am against you,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions; and I will cut off your prey from the earth, and the voice of your messengers will no longer be heard.”
Hichun thaneipen Pakai chun aseijin, vetan keima nang dou din kapang’e, chuleh na kangtalai jouse kahal vama, ameikhu ki tung let lut ding; chujong leh na sakei bahkai noute jong chemjama katha ding ahi; chule leiset chunga kona na kivah na ding sahing jouse katol mangsoh ding, nasot tol le a pang miho thusei awgin kijapha lou helding ahi.
