< Zechariah 2 >

1 Keiman kavet kitleh, pasal khat in thiltena molkhat akichoi kamui
And I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a man, and in his hand a measuring line.
2 Hiti chun keiman hoilanga che ding nahim tin ka dong in ahileh aman, “Keima hin Jerusalem hi adung avai itiham tetoh dinga hunga kahi” ati.
And I said to him, Whither go you? And he said to me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth of it, and what is the length of it.
3 Hiche jou chun keiman ka komma um vantil chu ama komma hung vantil chu kimupi ding in achen ahi.
And, behold, the angel that spoke with me stood [by], and another angel went forth to meet him,
4 Vantil khatpa chun aseiye, hungloijin lang hiche gollhangpa komma chun seijin, Jerusalem hi phatkhat leh mipi leh ganchaho hung dimset diu ahindol loudiu ahi, hitia chu mipi tamtah khopi polanga hung cheng diu ahi.
and spoke to him, saying, Run and speak to that young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be fully inhabited by reason of the abundance of men and cattle in the midst of her.
5 Chu teng keima tah in Jerusalem kimvel chu meikong palla ka kolkhum ding ahi tin Pakaiyin aseiye. Chuleh keiman khopi sung chu kaloupina kahi sah ding ahi,” ati.
And I will be to her, says the Lord, a wall of fire round about, and I will be for a glory in the midst of her.
6 Pakijin aseiye,” Babylon sahlanga konin hung jamdoh un, nanghohi leiset kol ning lia konna thecheh na hiuve.
Ho, ho, flee from the land of the north, says the Lord: for I will gather you from the four winds of heaven, says the Lord,
7 Zion mipite hungpot doh uvin, nangho Babylon gamma ana jam lut ho!”
[even] to Sion: deliver yourselves, you that dwell [with] the daughter of Babylon.
8 Loupi Pathen hatchung nung Pakai chun nangho nachom gamma namite chu doudinga eihinsol ahi, nangho nabolse hochun kei eibolset a kalah ahi. Keiman kakhut hinlam ingting amaho chu kasuhchip ding chuteng asoh houvin amaho achomdiu ahi. Chuteng leh hat chungnung Pakaiyin eihin sol ahi ahet diu ahi tin,
For thus says the Lord Almighty; After the glory has he sent me to the nations that spoiled you: for he that touches you is as one that touches the apple of his eye.
9 Pakaiyin aseiye, Vo khopi hoitah Jerusalem kipah tahin kho asam un, ajeh chu nangho lah a cheng dinga kahung ding ahi.
For, behold, I bring my hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to them that serve them: and you shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me.
10 Hiche nikho teng chuleh namtamtah in Pakai keima eihin jop diu chuleh amaho chu kamite hidiu ahi. Keima nangho lah a kachen ding chu teng leh hat chungnung Pakaiyin Keima nangho komma eihinsol hi nahetdingu ahi.
Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Sion: for, behold, I come, and will dwell in the midst of you, says the Lord.
11 Gamthenga chu Judah gamchu Pakaiyin Ama gam tumbeh a dinga alahkut ding chu leh Jerusalem chu amatah in akhopi dinga alhen kit ding ahi.
And many nations shall flee for refuge to the Lord in that day, and they shall be for a people to him, and they shall dwell in the midst of you: and you shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you.
And the Lord shall inherit Juda his portion in the holy [land], and he will yet choose Jerusalem.
13 Pakai angsunga mihem jouse thipbeh chan umhen ajeh chu Amachu amunthenga konna hung kipat doh ding ahitai.
Let all flesh fear before the Lord: for he has risen up from his holy clouds.
