Isaiah 5
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Ka palung ih kami hanah, anih ih misur takha to laa ah ka sak pae han. Ka palung ih kami loe long kahoih maesom nuiah misur takha to a tawnh;
1I will sing to my beloved the canticle of my cousin concerning his vineyard. My beloved had a vineyard on a hill in a fruitful place.
2anih loe long to takaeh moe, thlungnawk to takhoe boih pacoengah, a koeh ih misurkung to a thling, athung ah toephaih imsang to sak moe, misurtui pasawhhaih doeh a sak; anih mah kahoih misurthaih athai tih tiah oephaih a tawnh, toe kahoih ai misurthaih to athaih pae lat.
2And he fenced it in, and picked the stones out of it, and planted it with the choicest vines, and built a tower in the midst thereof, and set up a winepress therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it broutht forth wild grapes.
3Vaihiah, Aw Jerusalem kaminawk hoi Judah kaminawk, nangcae loe kai hoi misur takha salakah lokcaekkung ah om oh.
3And now, O ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and ye men of Juda, judge between me and my vineyard.
4Kaih ih misur takha hanah timaw ka sah thai tih boeh? Ka hoih misurthaih athai tih mue, tiah oephaih ka tawnh, toe kahoih ai misurthaih to athaih lat.
4What is there that I ought to do more to my vineyard, that I have not done to it?
5Kaimah ih misur takha hae kawbangmaw ka sak han, tiah vaihi kang thuih o noek han; pakaa ih sipae to ka phraek moe, minawk kalah ka caaksak han; tapang to ka phraek moe, minawk kalah ka cawhsak han.
5And now I will shew you wnat I will do to my vineyard. I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be wasted: I will break down the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down.
6Misur takha to ka pahnong sut han; takha loe mi mah doeh pathoep mak ai, takae doeh takae o mak ai ueloe, congca soekhring ni amprawk lat tih boeh; a nuiah kho angzoh han ai ah tamai to lok ka paek han.
6And I will make it desolate: it shall not be pruned, and it shall not be digged: but briers and thorns shall come up: and I will command the clouds to rain no rain upon it.
7Israel imthung takoh loe misatuh kaminawk Angraeng ih misur takha ah oh, Judah kaminawk loe palung han koi kaom misurkung ah oh o; anih loe katoeng lokcaekhaih to pakrong e, pacaekthlaekhaih to a tongh lat; toenghaih to pakrong e, khenah, qahhaih to a hnuk lat.
7For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel: and the man of Juda, his pleasant plant: and I looked that he should do judgment, and behold iniquity: and do justice, and behold a cry.
8Nihcae loe long ah angmacae bueng oh o sut moe, ohhaih ahmuen kakong om ai boeh pongah, im maeto pacoeng maeto, lawk maeto pacoeng maeto kangbet ah khosah kaminawk loe khosak bing o!
8Woe to you that join house to house and lay field to field, even to the end of the place: shall you alone dwell in the midst of the earth?
9Lensawk kahoih parai impuinawk loe kami om ai angqai krangah om o tih boeh, tiah misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng mah, ka naa taengah ang thuih boeh.
9These things are in my ears, saith the Lord of hosts: unless many great and fair houses shall become desolate, without an inhabitant.
10Ue, lawk bung hato kaom misur takha ahmuen ah, misur tanghang abom bath maeto khue athai ueloe, homer maeto ahmuen ah aanmu patit naah, ephah maeto khue ni hak tih.
10For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one little measure, and thirty bushels of seed shall yield three bushels.
11Mu naek hanah khawnthaw ah angthawk, misurtui paquih hanah, khoving khoek to mu nae kaminawk loe khosak bing!
11Woe to you that rise up early in the morning to follow drunkenness, and to drink till the evening, to be inflamed with wine.
12Nihcae ih poihkung ah loe kalen pui katoeng, aqui aah koi katoeng, satuem, tamoi hoi misurtuinawk to oh; toe Angraeng mah sak ih hmuen to tiah doeh sah o ai, a ban hoiah sak ih hmuen doeh dawncang pae o ai.
12The harp, and the lyre, and the timbrel, and the pipe, and wine are in your feasts: and the work of the Lord you regard not, nor do you consider the works of his hands.
13Kai ih kaminawk loe panoekhaih tamsi o pongah, misong ah laemh o; nihcae ih angraengnawk loe zok kamthlam ah duek o moe, pop parai kaminawk doeh tui anghaeh loiah palai zaek o boih.
13Therefore is my people led away captive, because they had not knowledge, and their nobles have perished with famine, and their multitude were dried up with thirst.
14To pongah taprong loe amoeh moe, boep thai ai ah pakha to aangh; anih ih angraengnawk, pop parai kaminawk, lensawkhaih hoi khosak nawmhaih acaeng kaminawk loe to ah anghum o tathuk tih.
14Therefore hath hell enlarged her soul, and opened her mouth without any bounds, and their strong ones, and their people, and their high and glorious ones shall go down into it.
15Kahoih ai kami doeh atlim ah pakhrah tathuk ueloe, thacak kami doeh pahnaem tih; amoek kaminawk ih mik doeh atlim ah pakhrah pae tih.
15And man shall be brought down, and man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be brought low.
16Toe misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng loe toenghaih hoiah pakoehhaih to om tih, Ciimcai Sithaw loe a toenghaih rang hoiah ciimcaisak tih.
16And the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and the holy God shall be sanctified in justice.
17Tuucaanawk loe angmacae rawkcak caakhaih ahmuen ah paqai o tih, angraeng ih ahmuennawk loe angvinnawk mah caa o tih.
17And the lambs shall feed according to their order, and strangers shall eat the deserts turned into fruitfulness.
18Atho kaom ai alinghaih hoi sakpazaehaih to qui hoiah azuk kaminawk loe khosak bing!
18Woe to you that draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as the rope of a cart.
19Nihcae mah Sithaw toksakhaih ka hnuk o thai hanah, anih loe karangah angzo nasoe, a tok to karangah sah lai nasoe; ka panoek o thai hanah, Ciimcai Israel Sithaw to anghnai nasoe loe, angzo lai nasoe, tiah thuih o.
19That say: Let him make haste, and let his work come quickly, that we may see it: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel come, that we may know it.
20Hmuen kasae to kahoih hmuen, tiah thui kami, kahoih hmuen to kasae hmuen ah thui kami, vinghaih to aanghaih ah, aanghaih to vinghaih ah poek kami, kakhaa to kaluep ah, kaluep to kakhaa ah poek kaminawk loe khosak bing!
20Woe to you that call evil good, and good evil: that put darkness for light, and light for darkness: that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter.
21Angmacae mik ah palungha kami, angmacae mik ah khopoek thaih, tiah poekhaih tawn kaminawk loe khosak bing!
21Woe to you that rue wise in your own eyes, and prudent in your own conceits.
22Misurtui amoeh, mu abaeh moe, naek koeh hmoek kaminawk loe khosak bing!
22Woe to you that are mighty to drink wine, and stout men at drunkenness.
23To baktih kaminawk loe bokhaih hmuen to lak moe, katoeng ai kaminawk to danpaek ai ah loih o sak ving; katoeng kaminawk to toenghaih hoiah lokcaek han koeh o ai.
23That justify the wicked for gifts, and take away the justice of the just from him.
24To pongah hmai mah caphaeh to kangh moe, hmaipalai mah qam kazaek to kangh baktih toengah, nihcae ih tangzuun to qong ueloe, apawk doeh maiphu baktiah van ah anghaeh tahang boih tih; nihcae loe Angraeng Sithaw ih kaalok to vah o ving moe, Ciimcai Israel kami ih lok to aek o pongah to tiah oh o.
24Therefore as the tongue of the fire devoureth the stubble, and the heat of the dame consumeth it: so shall their root be as ashes, and their bud shall go up as dust: for they have cast away the law of the Lord of hosts, and have blasphemed the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25To pongah angmah ih kaminawk nuiah Angraeng palungphui; a ban payangh moe, nihcae to boh, to pongah maesomnawk loe anghuen o moe, kami qoknawk doeh loklam um li ah aek baktiah oh o. To tiah oh pacoengah doeh, anih palungphuihaih dii ai vop, a ban to phok tahang toengtoeng vop.
25Therefore is the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people, and he hath stretched out his hand upon them, and struck them: and the mountains were troubled, and their carcasses became as dung in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
26Angthla parai ahmuen ah khosah kaminawk hanah kahni to payang pae o moe, long boenghaih ahmuen ah kaom kaminawk hanah ban uengh o thuih; khenah, nihcae loe karangah angzo o tih;
26And he will lift up a sign to the nations afar off, and will whistle to them from the ends of the earth: and behold they shall come with speed swiftly.
27nihcae thungah angpho moe, amthaek kami mi doeh om mak ai, mi doeh iih angam o mak ai, iip doeh iip o mak ai; kazii angzaenghaih doeh khram o mak ai, khokpanai qui doeh apet mak ai;
27There is none that shall faint, nor labour among them: they shall not slumber nor sleep, neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken.
28nihcae ih palaa loe noet parai, nihcae loe kalii to anueng o coek boeh; nihcae ih hrang khoknawk loe thlung baktiah amtaak, hrang lakoknawk doeh takhi kamhae baktiah oh.
28Their arrows are sharp, and all their bows are bent. The hoofs of their horses shall be like the hint, and their wheels like the violence of a tempest.
29Nihcae hanghaih lok loe kaipui baktiah oh moe, tha kaom li kaipui baktiah a hangh o; ue, hanghaih hoiah moi to kaek o ueloe, ruet o tih, mi mah doeh lomh pae thai mak ai.
29Their roaring like that of a lion, they shall roar like young lions: yea they shall roar, and take hold of the prey, and they shall keep fast hold of it, and there shall be none to deliver it.
30To na niah nihcae loe tuipui ih tuiphu kangthawk lok baktiah hang o tih; kami mah to prae to khet naah, khoving hoi palungsethaih khue to hnu tih; vannawk aanghaih loe tamai mah khuk khoep tih boeh.
30And they shall make a noise against them that day, like the roaring of the sea; we shall look towards the land, and behold darkness of tribulation, and the light is darkened with the mist thereof.
