< Isaiah 27 >

1 Tekah khohnin ah tah BOEIPA loh a cunghang aka ning tih aka len neh aka tlungluen neh Leviathan rhul aka yingyet khaw, Leviathan rhul kawl khaw a cawh ni. Te vaengah tuipuei kah tuihnam te khaw a ngawn ni.
In that day will Jehovah punish with his sword, His hard, and great, and strong sword, The leviathan, that fleet serpent, Even the leviathan, that winding serpent; Yea, he will slay the monster, that is in the sea.
2 Tekah khohnin ah tah naidoeh misurdum te doo laeh.
In that day, sing ye thus concerning the vineyard:
3 BOEIPA kamah loh te ka kueinah tih mikhaptok ah ka suep. Te te khoyin loh cawh ve ka ti dongah khothaih ah ka kueinah.
“I, Jehovah, am its guardian; I will water it every moment; That no one may assault it, I will watch it day and night.
4 Kosi he kai taengah om pawh. Caemtloek vaengkah lota hling kai taengah aka pae te unim? Te te cuk thil vetih rhenten ka hlup mako.
There is no fury in me; But let me find the thorns and thistles in battle. I will go against them, And burn them up together,
5 Te cakhaw ka lunghim te hangdang thil saeh lamtah kamah taengah rhoepnah saii saeh, kamah taengah rhoepnah saii saeh.
Unless they take hold of my protection, And with me make peace, And make peace with me.”
6 A yung a hlak tue a pha vaengah Jakob te khooi ni. Te vaengah Israel khaw saihnim vetih a thaih loh lunglai ah baetawt ni.
In coming days shall Jacob take root, And Israel flourish and bud forth, And fill the world with fruit.
7 Hmasoe banglam nim anih te a boh khaw a boh aih? Ngawnnah banglam nim a ngawn khaw a ngawn aih.
Did he smite Israel, as he smote those that smote him? Was he slain as those that slew him?
8 A rhimong la tueih ham na mah coeng. A hil neh khothaih kanghawn bangla khak a haek.
In measure, by sending her away, didst thou punish her, Taking her away in the rough tempest, in the day of the east wind.
9 Te dongah he nen ni Jakob kathaesainah a dawth pah vetih a tholh kah a thaih boeih he a khoe pa eh. Te vaengah hmueihtuk kah lungto boeih te lungbok lung bangla a khueh ni. Asherah neh bunglawn a dae pah vetih te thoo voel mahpawh.
By this, therefore, is the iniquity of Jacob expiated, And this is wholly the fruit of the removal of his sin, That He has made the stones of the altar like limestones broken in pieces, And that the images of Astarte and the sun-pillars no more stand.
10 Khopuei cakrhuet tolkhoeng bueng te a hlah tih, khosoek bangla a hnoo. Vaito ca loh hnap a luem thil tih pahoi a kol thil vaengah tah a boe khaw a thok sak.
For the fortified city is desolate, A habitation forsaken, deserted like a wilderness; There doth the calf feed, and there doth he lie down, And consume her branches.
11 A vuei aka rhae he a khaem uh. Huta ha pawk vaengah te a tok uh dae pilnam kah yakmingnah om pawh. Te dongah anih aka saii loh anih a haidam tih anih aka saii loh anih te rhen pawh.
When her boughs are withered, they are broken off; Women come, and burn them; For it was a people of no understanding; Therefore he that made him had not mercy on him, And he that formed him showed him no favor.
12 Tekah khohnin a pha vaengah tuiva lamloh Egypt soklong duela cangmo te BOEIPA loh a boh ni. Nangmih Israel ca rhoek te pakhat phoeiah pakhat n'yoep ni.
But it shall come to pass in that day, That Jehovah shall gather fruit From the stream of the Euphrates to the river of Egypt, And ye shall be gathered, one by one, ye children of Israel!
13 Tekah khohnin a pha vaengah tuki a len te a ueng vetih Assyria khohmuen ah aka milh khaw ha pawk uh ni. Egypt kho kah a heh rhoek loh Jerusalem kah tlang cim dongah BOEIPA a bawk uh ni.
In that day shall a great trumpet be sounded, And they shall come who are lost in the land of Assyria, And are outcasts in the land of Egypt, And shall worship Jehovah upon the holy mountain in Jerusalem.
