Isaiah 32
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1Khenah, siangpahrang mah toenghaih hoiah prae to uk tih, ukkung angraengnawk mah toenghaih hoiah uk o tih.
1Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice.
2Kami loe takhi song naah anghawkhaih ahmuen, takhi sae song naah abuephaih ahmuen ah om tih; long karoem ahmuen ih vapui tui baktiah om ueloe, ni kanaa ahmuen ih lungsong tahlip baktiah om tih.
2And a man shall be as in a hiding-place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as by the watercourses in a dry place, as in the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.
3Hnukhaih mik tawn kaminawk loe mik pasim o mak ai, lokthaihaih naa tawn kaminawk mah doeh lok to tahngai o tih boeh.
3And the eyes of them that see shall not be closed, and the ears of them that hear shall attend.
4Panoekhaih tawn ai kami ih palung mah panoekhaih to tawn ueloe, lokaa mah doeh kamtuengah lok apae thai tih boeh.
4The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.
5Kamthu loe khingya koi kaom kami ah poek o mak ai boeh; poeksae kami doeh pakoeh koi kaom ahmuen to paek mak ai boeh.
5The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be noble.
6Kamthu mah loe Sithaw koeh ai ih hmuen to sak moe, Angraeng to kasae thuih hanah zok amthlam kami to zok amthlamsak aep, tui anghae kami han doeh tui anghaesak aep hanah, loksae apae ueloe, zae sakhaih khue to poek tih.
6For the vile person will speak villainy, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise ungodliness, and to utter wickedness against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
7Kasae kami loe lok amlai o, kahoih ai hmuen to sak o; amtang kami mah loktang lok thui cadoeh, anih amrosak hanah kahoih ai hmuen to a poek o.
7The instruments also of the churl are evil; he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, and the needy when he speaketh right.
8Toe minawk abomh koeh kami loe kahoih hmuen to a poek pongah, anih loe minawk abomh koehhaih palungthin hoiah khosah tih.
8But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand.
9Thazoi ah kaom nangcae nongpatanawk, angthawk oh; acoehaih tawn ai canunawk, ka lok hae tahngai oh; ka thuih ih lok hae tahngai oh!
9Rise up, ye women that are at ease, and hear my voice; ye confident daughters, give ear unto my speech.
10acoehaih tawn ai nongpatanawk, nangcae loe pop parai ani hoi saning thungah raihaih na tong o tih; misurthaih om mak ai ueloe, misurthaih pakhrikhaih atue doeh pha mak ai.
10After a year and days shall ye be troubled, ye confident women; for the vintage shall fail, the ingathering shall not come.
11Thazoi ah kaom nongpatanawk, tasoeh oh; acoehaih tawn ai kami nang, mawn ah; na khukbuen to angkhring ah loe kazii to kaengah angzaeng ah.
11Tremble, ye women that are at ease; be troubled, ye confident ones; strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins,
12Long kahoih lawk hmuen hoi athaih kapop ah kathai misurkung pongah saoek atumhaih hoiah mawn oh.
12Smiting upon the breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine;
13Kai kaminawk ih long loe kapring hoi soekhring hoiah koi tih; Ue, anghoehaih imnawk hoi vangpui nuiah doeh soekhring to amprawk tih;
13For the land of my people whereon thorns and briers come up; yea, for all the houses of joy and the joyous city.
14Angraeng ohhaih ahmuen to caehtaak ving boeh pongah, vangpui thung ih atuen doeh angqai krang tih boeh; misatoephaih im hoi imsangnawk loe dungzan khoek to pong sut ueloe, laa hrangnawk prathaih ahmuen hoi tuunawk prathaih ahmuen ah om lat tih boeh;
14For the palace shall be forsaken; the city with its stir shall be deserted; the mound and the tower shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks;
15ranui bang hoi aicae nuiah Muithla kraih thuih naah loe, praezaek to long kahoih lawk hmuen ah angcoeng ueloe, long kahoih lawk hmuen doeh taw baktiah poekhaih atue to om tih boeh.
15Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.
16Praezaek ah toenghaih hoi lokcaekhaih om ueloe, toenghaih to long kahoih lawk hmuen ah om poe tih boeh.
16Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field.
17Toenghaih mah angdaehhaih to omsak tih; toenghaih athaih loe dungzan monghaih hoi kacak poe oephaih ah om tih.
17And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and confidence for ever.
18Kai ih kaminawk loe misa monghaih ahmuen, mawnhaih om ai ahmuen, kamding rue ah anghakhaih ahmuen ah om o tih boeh;
18And my people shall abide in a peaceable habitation, and in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting-places.
19toe taw nuiah qaetui to krah ueloe, vangpui doeh long hoi kangvan ah ahnaem tathuk tih.
19And it shall hail, in the downfall of the forest; but the city shall descend into the valley.
20Tui ohhaih ahmuen ah aanmu haeh kami, maitaw hoi laa hrangnawk to koeh baktiah prasak kaminawk loe tahamhoih.
20Happy are ye that sow beside all waters, that send forth freely the feet of the ox and the ass.
