Lamentations 5
1 Remember, LORD, what has come on us. Look, and see our disgrace.
Pakai ka chunguva thilsoh ho hi hingeldoh temin, ven ichan geija vetset ka chan’u hitam?
2 Our inheritance is turned over to strangers, our houses to foreigners.
Ka goulo diu chengse hi namchom miho achang tauvin, Ka in ka lou jouseu la gamchom miho’a ahitai.
3 We are orphans and fatherless. Our mothers are like widows.
Keiho hi nunei lou panei lou kahi tauvin, kanuteu jong meithai ahi gam tauve.
4 We have to pay for a drink of water; our wood is sold to us.
Ka dondiu twi jeng jong kakichoh thu diuvin aumdoh tan, Ti ding thing jeng jong kakichoh thudiu ahitai.
5 Our pursuers are on our necks; we are weary, and have no rest.
Eihin nungdelteuvin eihin phah pai dingu ahitan, Keiho ka haisam tauvin, ahinlah kingahna ding mun ka neipouve.
6 We have submitted to the Egyptians and to the Assyrians, to get enough bread.
Neh leh chah ning lhinga kanei jouseu, Ka kihinso jou nadiuvin Egypt leh Asssyria khutna ka kipelut tauvin ahi.
7 Our fathers sinned, and are no more; but we have borne their iniquities.
Kapu kapateu ana chonseuvin ahinlah amaho athi gamtauve, Hijeh chun amaho chan ding thoh gimna leh engbolna hi keiho chunga achu tan ahi.
8 Servants rule over us: There is none to deliver us out of their hand.
Ka sohteu chu tun keiho Pakaiyin apang gamtauvin, ahinlah koima eihuhdoh diu aum pon ahi.
9 We get our bread at the peril of our lives, because of the sword in the wilderness.
Gamsun’a pum hatin vai ahop jeh'in thiding kicha pum pumin anneh kakiholun ahi.
10 Our skin is hot like an oven, because of the burning heat of famine.
Kel khoh jeh'in ka vousou tapkonga changlhah kikang bangin avom gam tai.
11 They raped the women in Zion, the virgins in the cities of Judah.
Kagal miteuvin Jerusalema numei ho Judah khosunga nungah khang dong ho kichep nan anei gamtauve.
12 Princes were hung by their hands; elders were shown no respect.
Ka lengteu jong akhutpiuvin akhaisangun, Ka lamkaiteu jong noise tahin ei bolpeh tauvin ahi.
13 The young men grind at the mill; the boys stagger under loads of wood.
Gollhang ho chu sumhei goi dingin akaimangun, chuleh pasal chapang ho chu tiding thing aputsahnauva a lonlele jeng tauvin ahi.
14 The elders have gone from the gate, the young men from their music.
Lamkai ho khopi kelkot ngahin apang tapouve. Khangthahten lam leh la sah abol tapouvin ahi.
15 The joy of our heart has ceased; our dancing is turned into mourning.
Kana lam nao chu lung khamna asohdoh tan, Ka lungsunguva kipana abeitai.
16 The crown is fallen from our head; woe to us, for we have sinned.
Ka luchang uva konin ka lallukhuhu alhamang gam tai. Ka chonset jeh'un ka chung uva sapsetna achu tai.
17 For this our heart is faint; for these things our eyes grow dim.
Hijeh hin kalungu alhalhop tan chuleh kamit uvah mitlhi adimtan ahi.
18 For the mountain of Zion, which is desolate; the foxes walk on it.
Ajehchu Jerusalem hi akeosehin aki jam tan, Sialten lhat nan anei tauve.
19 But you, LORD, abide forever; your throne is from generation to generation.
Ahinlah Pakai nangma abang na hi jing jeng e, nalal touna chu akhang khangin aum jing e.
20 Why do you keep on forgetting us? Why do you forsake us so long?
Ipi dinga nei suhmil jing nahlaiyu ham? Ipi dinga donlou dai louva neikoi nahlaiyu ham?
21 Restore us to you, LORD, and we shall be restored; renew our days as in former times,
O Pakai neikiledohsah kitnun lang nangma komma nei puilut kittauvin! Ka kipanao masa chu neipe kittaovin!
22 unless you have completely rejected us and are angry with us beyond measure.
Ahilou leh neipui doh mong mong diu hitam? Ole Ka chunguva nalung hangjing nalai ham?
