1“Yes, in those days and at that time, when I restore Judah and Jerusalem from captivity,
1Khenah, Judah hoi Jerusalem ih tamnanawk ka hoih lethaih ni hoi atue naah loe,
2I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will enter into judgment against them concerning My people, My inheritance, Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations as they divided up My land.
2prae kami boih ka pakhueng moe, Jehosaphat ih azawn tangtling ah ka hoih tathuk han; Kai ih kami hoi qawktoep kami kai mah ih Israel kaminawk pongah, to ahmuen ah nihcae hoi nawnto lok ka caek han, nihcae mah kai ih kaminawk to prae kaminawk salakah anghaehsak phang moe, ka prae doeh tapraek o.
3They cast lots for My people; they bartered a boy for a prostitute and sold a girl for wine to drink.
3Nihcae loe kai ih kaminawk hanah taham khethaih phoisa vah pae o; tangyat zaw kami khaeah caehhaih atho ah nongpa nawkta maeto a paek o, misurtui naekhaih atho paek hanah nongpata nawkta maeto a zawh o.
4Now what do you have against Me, O Tyre, Sidon, and all the regions of Philistia? Are you rendering against Me a recompense? If you retaliate against Me, I will swiftly and speedily return your recompense upon your heads.
4Ue, aw Tura, Sidon hoi nangcae Philistia tuipui taengah kaom kaminawk boih, tipongah kai misa ah nang suek o loe? Ka sak ih hmuen pongah nang pathok o let han maw? Nang pathok o nahaeloe, nangmacae lu nuiah karangah kang krak o sak let han;
5For you took My silver and gold and carried off My finest treasures to your temples.
5nangcae mah kai ih sui, sum kanglung hoi kahoih hmuennawk to na lak o moe, nangmacae ih tempul thungah na sin o.
6You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks, to send them far from their homeland.
6Judah hoi Jerusalem ih kaminawk angmacae ih ramri hoi kangthla ah thak hanah, Grik kaminawk khaeah na zawh o.
7Behold, I will rouse them from the places to which you sold them; I will return your recompense upon your heads.
7Khenah, na zawhhaih ahmuen hoiah nihcae to ka pathawk moe, nangmacae lu nuiah kang kraksak let han.
8I will sell your sons and daughters into the hands of the people of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans—to a distant nation.” Indeed, the LORD has spoken.
8Na capanawk hoi na canunawk to Judah kaminawk khaeah ka zawh han; nihcae mah angthla aep ah kaom, Seba kaminawk khaeah zaw o patoeng tih, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
9Proclaim this among the nations: “Prepare for war; rouse the mighty men; let all the men of war advance and attack!
9Gentel kaminawk boih khaeah hae lok hae thui pae oh: misatuk hanah amsak oh, thacak kaminawk angthawk oh, misatuk amsak kaminawk anghnai oh, misatuk han caeh o nasoe.
10Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears. Let the weak say, ‘I am strong!’
10Laikok atokhaih taoi to sumsen ah daeng oh loe, sum kangkawn to tazae ah daeng oh: thazok kami mah tha ka cak, tiah thui nasoe.
11Come quickly, all you surrounding nations, and gather yourselves. Bring down Your mighty ones, O LORD.
11Nangcae Sithaw panoek ai acaengnawk boih, angzo oh, amkhueng oh loe, nawnto angcu oh. Aw Angraeng, thacak nangmah ih kaminawk to caehsak tathuk ah.
12Let the nations be roused and advance to the Valley of Jehoshaphat, for there I will sit down to judge all the nations on every side.
12Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk angthawk o nasoe, Jehosaphat ih azawn tangtling ah angzo oh; to ah kang hnut moe, ahmuen kruek ih prae kaminawk to lok ka caek han.
13Swing the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, trample the grapes, for the winepress is full; the wine vats overflow because their wickedness is great.
13Nihcae sethaih loe len parai boeh pongah, cakra to angnaeng oh, cang loe hmin boeh: angzo oh loe, caeh o tathuk ah; misurtui pasawhhaih ahmuen loe koi boeh pongah, tui suekhaih tabu doeh koi amthlai pok boeh.
14Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the Day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.
14Lokcaekhaih azawn ih, Angraeng ih ni loe zoi boeh pongah, paroeai pop, pop parai kaminawk loe, lokcaekhaih azawn ah oh o.
15The sun and moon will grow dark, and the stars will no longer shine.
15Ni hoi khrah to tahmuep ueloe, cakaehnawk mah aanghaih to paek o mak ai boeh.
16The LORD will roar from Zion and raise His voice from Jerusalem; heaven and earth will tremble. But the LORD will be a refuge for His people, a stronghold for the people of Israel.
16Angraeng loe Zion mae hoiah hang ueloe, Jerusalem hoiah doeh hang tih; van hoi long to anghuen tih; toe Angraeng loe angmah ih kaminawk hanah abuephaih ahmuen ah om tih, Israel caanawk hanah loe thacakhaih ah om tih.
17Then you will know that I am the LORD your God, who dwells in Zion, My holy mountain. Jerusalem will be holy, never again to be overrun by foreigners.
17To naah Kai loe, kaimah ih kaciim mae Zion ah kaom, nangcae ih Angraeng Sithaw ni, tiah na panoek o tih: Jerusalem loe ciimcai tih boeh, prae kalah kaminawk mah natuek naah doeh muk o mak ai boeh.
18And in that day the mountains will drip with sweet wine, and the hills will flow with milk. All the streams of Judah will run with water, and a spring will flow from the house of the LORD to water the Valley of Acacias.
18To na niah loe mae mah, misurtui to tacawtsak tih, maesomnawk mah tahnutui longsak tih, Judah ih vacongnawk ah kalen parai tui to long tih; Angraeng ih im hoiah tui to puek ueloe, Shitim azawn to tui paek o tih boeh.
19Egypt will become desolate, and Edom a desert wasteland, because of the violence done to the people of Judah, in whose land they shed innocent blood.
19Judah kaminawk to misa ah suek o, angmacae prae thungah kaom sakpazaehaih tawn ai kaminawk to nihcae mah athii long o sak pongah, Izip loe angqai krang ueloe, Edom loe kapong sut praezaek ah om tih.
20But Judah will be inhabited forever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
20Judah loe cak poe ueloe, Jerusalem doeh adung maeto pacoeng maeto cak poe tih boeh.
21For I will avenge their blood, which I have not yet avenged.” For the LORD dwells in Zion.
21Angraeng loe Zion ah oh pongah, ka ciimsak ai ih nihcae ih athii to ka ciimsak han boeh.
