Isaiah 22
1 Jerusalem chung changa thuhil hitin ahunge-Gaova kimu phaicham: Ipi thu um hitam? Inchung sao langa chu ibola mijouse lhai lou vaham?
THE WORD OF THE VALLEY OF SION. What has happened to thee, that now ye are all gone up to the housetops which help you not?
2 Khopi sung jouse tijan aboi taove. Ipi kamu hitam kipana a anadim khopi a hi? Thilong ho muntinna akijam in, gala thijong ahipouvin, natna leh kella thi ahibou vui.
The city is filled with shouting [men]: thy slain are not slain with swords, nor are thy dead those who have died in battle.
3 Na lamkai hou ajammang gam taove kithuh a pangsa louvin akipedoh jeng taove. Mipi jong a jammang gutnaova mat tup in aum taove.
All thy princes have fled, and [thy] captives are tightly bound, and the mighty [men] in thee have fled far away.
4 Hijeh a chu kasei ahi, “Kapdin neidalha uvin; lhepbi ding neigo hih un. Kamite kisuhmang kavet toh kilhonin amaho din kap inge.”
Therefore I said, Let me alone, I will weep bitterly; labour not to comfort me for the breach of the daughter of my people.
5 Aw, iti kisuchipdeh gallel nikho hia tam! Lungboina leh tijatna nikho hia hitam, van janel Pakai in ahin lhunsah hi, gaova thilmuna mun phaicham ahi. Jerusalem bang jouse akisuchip tan, molsang jouse akonin mithiho kana husa a kithong jeng jung jengin ahi.
For [it is] a day of trouble, and of destruction, and of treading down, and [there is] perplexity [sent] from the Lord of hosts: they wander in the valley of Sion; they wander from the least to the greatest on the mountains.
6 Elamite ten thalpi a kipoh un, sakol kangtalai holeh a tolthem ho toh ahiuvin ahi. Kir miten galvon ompho ho a tuhdoh taovin ahi.
And the Elamites took [their] quivers, and [there were] men mounted on horses, and [there was] a gathering for battle.
7 Sakol kangtalai jin na phaicham mun hoi jouse hin lon dimin tin, atolhon na kotpi ahin tum hong diu ahi.
And it shall be [that] thy choice valleys shall be filled with chariots, and horsemen shall block up thy gates.
8 Judate kivenna chu sutlhah peh in a um tan, galvon kikoina a galmanchah ladinga nalhai ding ahi.
And they shall uncover the gates of Juda, and they shall look in that day on the choice houses of the city.
9 Jerusalem bang kisuchim chu naga khol chilin, dilneo hoa twi nakholtup in ahi.
And they shall uncover the secret places of the houses of the citadel of David: and they saw that they were many, and that one [had] turned the water of the old pool into the city;
10 In ho na ga tetoh in, themkhat na phetlhan, bang ho alhou nadin songho nagol challin ahi.
and that they [had] pulled down the houses of Jerusalem, to fortify the wall of the city.
11 Khopi sung bangho kikah a twikholna khat na sadoh in, dilneo lui a konin twi nakhom tup e. Ahinla, abolpa kom'a panpina nathum naisaipoi. Phat sot a patna hin gong jing Pa nageldoh khapoije.
And ye procured to yourselves water between the two walls within the ancient pool: but ye looked not to him that made it from the beginning, and regarded not him that created it.
12 Hiche phat chun Pakai, van janel Pakai chun na kouvin, puldou ding leh kapdin nasole. Na chonset naho jal'in lung lengvai tah in nalu kivomuijin atin, chuleh lung kisih na vetsahnan khaodip pon kivon din aseije.
And the Lord, the Lord of hosts, called in that day for weeping, and lamentation, and baldness, and for girding with sackcloth:
13 Ahin alamchom beh in nalam in, na kichemin ahi; na gancha holeh na kelngoi nathat in ahi. Ju leh sa in golnop nabolin ahi. Hiti jong hin na seije, “Neu hitin don uhite, ajehchu jing leh ithi diu ahi! “
but they engaged in joy and gladness, slaying calves, and killing sheep, so as to eat flesh, and drink wine; saying, Let us eat and drink; for to-morrow we die.
14 Van janel Pakai chun kei koma ahin seidoh tai: “Nathi nikho a hunglhun masang sen hiche chonset jeh ahi ngaidam nachan lou hel ding ahi. “Hiche hi Pakai, van janel Pakai thutan ahi.
And these things are revealed in the ears of the Lord of hosts: for this sin shall not be forgiven you, until ye die.
15 Hiche hi ahi Pakai, van janel Pakai in kahenga asei chu: “Shebna, leng inpi vaihom chu kimaitopin chuleh hiche thuhil hi pen:
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Go into the chamber, to Somnas the treasurer, and say to him, Why art thou here?
16 “Koihija naki gel a, chuleh hilai jahi ipi nabol a, nakivuina ding khuh hoitah nakisah a, songpi chung sanga hetjing nading na kitun ham?
and what hast thou to do here, that thou hast here hewn thyself a sepulchre, and madest thyself a sepulchre on high, and hast graven for thyself a dwelling in the rock?
17 Ajehchu Pakai in na lemang vahding ahitai, mihatpa. Aman nahung matchah ding ahi,
Behold now, the Lord of hosts casts forth and will utterly destroy [such] a man, and will take away thy robe and thy glorious crown,
18 Kanglum akisea akichon banga naki chon sah ding, chuleh napei a, gam lataha napei mang ding ahi. Hilai achu nahung thi den ding, naloupina kangtalai ho kisusen tin, man thei hilou ding ahitai. Na lamkaipu molphouna nahung hiding ahi!
and will cast thee into a great and unmeasured land, and there thou shalt die: and he will bring thy fair chariot to shame, and the house of thy prince to be trodden down.
19 “ahi, natoh namun a kona katoldoh ding nahi,” tin Pakai jin aseije. “Nadin mun sangtah'a kona kakai lhah ding nahi.
And thou shalt be removed from thy stewardship, and from thy place.
20 Hiteng chuleh kasohpa Hilkiah chapa Elaikim, nakhel dinga kakou ding ahi.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Chelcias:
21 Amachu na lengvon kakivon sahding chuleh na minvo leh nathuneina kipeding ahitai. Jerusalem leh Judah tedinga mipa hung hiding ahi.
and I will put on him thy robe, and I will grant him thy crown with power, and I will give thy stewardship into his hands: and he shall be as a father to them that dwell in Jerusalem, and to them that dwell in Juda.
22 David chenna in kanglong honna kapeh ding-leng thutan namun dia dinmun sangpen ahi. Aman kot ho ahon teng leh koiman akhathei louding, akha teng leh koiman ahon theilou ding ahi.
And I will give him the glory of David; and he shall rule, and there shall be none to speak against him: and I will give him the key of the house of David [upon] his shoulder; and he shall open, and there shall be none to shut; and he shall shut, and there shall be none to open.
23 A insung ahin choisang ding ahi. Ajeh chu keiman amachu dettah a kakoi ding, Thingkil banga kikhen lut bang ding ahi.
And I will make him a ruler in a sure place, and he shall be for a glorious throne of his father's house.
24 Mopohna lentah peuvin tin, a insungmi aneopen geija choisanga umding ahi.”
And every one that is glorious in the house of his father shall trust in him, from the least to the greatest; and they shall depend upon him in that day.
25 Ahin, van janel Pakai in hitijong hin aseije: “Phat hung lhung ding ahi, thingkil detchet na kikhena angaitou chu, keiman kabo doh ding ahi. Hung doh intin, tol'a lhading ahi. Asuhdet ho puma hunglha mang diu ahi. Keima Pakai in kasei ahi!”
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, The man that is fastened in the sure place shall be removed and be taken away, and shall fall; and the glory that is upon him shall be utterly destroyed: for the Lord has spoken it.
