< Isaiah 16 >

1 Send forth, O Lord, the lamb, the ruler of the earth, from Petra of the desert, to the mount of the daughter of Sion.
Khohmuen aka hung tuca te Sela khosoek lamloh Zion nu kah tlang duela thak uh laeh.
2 And it shall come to pass, that as a bird fleeing away, and as young ones flying out of the nest, so shall the daughters of Moab be in the passage of Arnon.
Anih tah a bu a hno tih aka poeng vaa bangla om tih Arnon lamkai kah Moab nu rhoek khaw te tlam te om uh.
3 Take counsel, gather a council: make thy shadow as the night in the midday: hide them that flee, and betray not them that wander about.
cilsuep khaw pae rhoela pae uh. Oltloeknah saii uh. Khothun lung kah na mueihlip te khoyin bangla khueh laeh. A yong vaengah a heh rhoek te thuh lamtah phoe boeh.
4 My fugitives shall dwell with thee: O Moab, be thou a covert to them from the face of the destroyer: for the dust is at an end, the wretch is consumed: he hath failed, that trod the earth under foot.
Ka heh Moab te namah taengah bakuep saeh. Aka rhoelrhak kah mikhmuh lamloh amih hlipyingnah om saeh. Hlangphaep khaw khawk van ni. rhoelrhanah khaw khum bitni. Hlang aka taelh khaw diklai lamloh cing ni.
5 And a throne shall be prepared in mercy, and one shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging and seeking judgment and quickly rendering that which is just.
Ngolkhoel te sitlohnah neh a cikngae sak vetih, a soah uepomnah neh ngol ni. David kah dap ah lai a tloek tih, tiktamnah a toem vaengah duengnah khaw a ming.
6 We have heard of the pride of Moab, he is exceeding proud: his pride and his arrogancy, and his indignation is more than his strength.
Moab kah hoemdamnah tah a poikuk la, a hoemnah te muep n'yaak uh coeng. A hoemdamnah neh a thinpom dongah anih te olsai tangkhuet boel saeh.
7 Therefore shall Moab howl to Moab, every one shall howl: to them that rejoice upon the brick walls, tell ye their stripes.
Te tangloeng ni Moab loh amah Moab pum ham a rhung te. Kirhareseth rhae te a rhung thil tih aka rhawp yungyi ham na caitawk thil.
8 For the suburbs of Hesebon are desolate, and the lords of the nations have destroyed the vineyard of Sabama: the branches thereof have reached even to Jazer: they have wandered in the wilderness, the branches thereof are left, they are gone over the sea.
Heshbon lohmali kah Sibam misur tah huum coeng tih, namtom boei rhoek loh a dawn a oh uh. A pae loh Jazer la a pha. Khosoek ah yam hmaang tih tuipuei khaw a poeng uh.
9 Therefore I will lament with the weeping of Jazer the vineyard of Sabama: I will water thee with my tears, O Hesebon, and Eleale: for the voice of the treaders hath rushed in upon thy vintage, and upon thy harvest.
Te dongah ni Jazer kah a rhah bangla Sibam misur te ka rhah tangkhuet. Heshbon neh Elealeh nang te ka mikphi neh kan hmilhmal sak. Nang kah khohal neh na cangah kah tamlung khaw paa coeng.
10 And gladness and joy shall be taken away from Carmel, and there shall be no rejoicing nor shouting in the vineyards. He shall not tread out wine in the press that was wont to tread it out: the voice of the treaders I have taken away.
Cangthai dong lamkah kohoenah neh omngaihnah khaw khum coeng. Misurdum ah khaw tamhoe voel pawh. Misurtui te yuhui thil voel pawh. Va-am te a mael khaw a mael thil voel pawt dongah tamlung khaw ka bawt sak coeng.
11 Wherefore my bowels shall sound like a harp for Moab, and my inward parts for the brick wall.
Te dongah ka ko ah Moab ham rhotoeng bangla, ka kotak ah Kirhareseth ham hue a sak.
12 And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab is wearied on his high places, that he shall go in to his sanctuaries to pray, and shall not prevail.
Moab kah a ngak a phoe pah khaw om bitni. Thangthui hamla hmuensang kah a rhokso te a paan vaengah coeng thai mahpawh.
13 This is the word, that the Lord spoke to Moab from that time:
Hekah ol he BOEIPA loh hlamat ah ni Moab ham a thui coeng.
14 And now the Lord hath spoken, saying: In three years, as the years of a hireling, the glory of Moab shall be taken away for all the multitude of the people, and it shall be left small and feeble, not many.
Tahae BOEIPA loh koep a thui tih, “Kum thum khuiah kutloh kum kah bangla Moab kah thangpomnah neh hlangping boeih te rhaidaeng la muep om ni. A yolkai la aka sueng duen khaw khala pawh.
