1 Kutnoek parhih te a ong vaengah vaan ah khonoek tintan tluk tah kamkhuemnah neh om.
And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
2 Te phoeiah Pathen hmaiah aka pai puencawn parhih te ka hmuh tih amih te olueng parhih a paek.
And I saw the seven angels who stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.
3 Tedae puencawn a tloe ha pawk vaengah hmueihtuk ah pai tih sui bael a pom. Anih te bo-ul muep a paek. Te te ngolkhoel hmaikah sui hmueihtuk dongah hlangcim cungkuem kah thangthuinah la a paek ni.
And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given to him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
4 Te vaengah puencawn kut kah hlangcim rhoek thangthuinah bo-ul khuu te Pathen hmaiah luei.
And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God out of the angel’s hand.
5 Te phoeiah puencawn loh bael te a loh. Hmueihtuk kah hmai te a kol tih diklai la a hlak. Te vaengah rhaek neh khohum ol neh khophaa neh lingluei la thoeng.
And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it upon the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
6 Te vaengah olueng parhih aka pom puencawn parhih tah olueng ueng ham amamih te rhuengphong uh.
And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
7 Lamhma loh a ueng vaengah rhael neh hmai, thii neh a thoek te thoeng tih diklai la a hlak dongah diklai hlopthum te ung. Thing rho te khaw hlop thum ung. Khopol hing boeih khaw ung.
The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mixed with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
8 Puencawn a paibae loh a ueng vaengah tlang bangla aka len hmai tak te tuitunli la a hlak. Te dongah tuitunli kah hlop thum te thii la poeh.
And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood;
9 Te dongah tuitunli ah hinglu aka khueh a kutngo te hlop thum tah duek. Sangpho hlop thum te khaw poci.
And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.
10 Puencawn a pathum loh a ueng vaengah vaan kah aisi aka len te hmaithoi bangla rhong tih tla. Tuiva hlop thum so neh tuisih tui soah tla.
And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;
11 Aisi kah ming te khaw pantong ti ham om. Tui hlop thum te khaw pantong la poeh tih a khahing dongah tui lamkah hlang muep duek.
And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
12 Puencawn a pali loh a ueng vaengah Khomik te hlop thum, hla te khaw hlop thum, aisi te khaw hlop thum te a hnaa. Te daengah ni amih hlop thum loh hmuep vetih khothaih hlop thum a phoe pawt eh. Te vaengah khoyin tah amah boeiloeih la om.
And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so that the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.
13 Te vaengah ka sawt hatah vaan bangli ah atha pakhat kah a ding ka yaak. Ol ue neh, “Anunae, anunae, anunae diklai dongah khosa rhoek, puencawn pathum kah olueng ol a tloe te ueng hamla cai coeng,” a ti.
And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!
