Berean Standard Bible
1To pacoengah van hoi anghum tathuk kalah vankami maeto ka hnuk, anih loe kalen parai sakthaihaih to tawnh; anih ih aanghaih hoiah long to toeh phaeng.
1After this I saw another angel descending from heaven with great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his glory.
2Anih mah Babylon vangpui loe amtim boeh, amtim boeh, taqawknawk ohhaih ahmuen ah angcoeng boeh, panuet thok kasae muithlanawk ohhaih ahmuen ah angcoeng boeh, kamhnong, panuet thok tavaanawk paunghaih ahmuen ah oh boeh.
2And he cried out in a mighty voice: “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a lair for demons and a haunt for every unclean spirit, every unclean bird, and every detestable beast.
3Prae kaminawk loe anih hoi sak ih palungphuihaih misurtui mah paqui o boih boeh: long siangpahrangnawk loe anih hoiah zaehaih sak o moe, kangsum thai ai anih ih zae sak koehhaih mah hmuenmae zaw kaminawk to angraengsak aep boeh, tiah tha hoi a hang.
3All the nations have drunk the wine of the passion of her immorality. The kings of the earth were immoral with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown wealthy from the extravagance of her luxury.”
4To pacoengah, Kai ih kaminawk, anih zaehaihnawk thungah na thum o han ai, anih mah tong ih raihaih baktiah raihaihnawk na tong o han ai ah, anih khae hoiah tacawt oh.
4Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “Come out of her, My people, so that you will not share in her sins or contract any of her plagues.
5Anih mah sak ih zaehaihnawk loe van khoek to phak boeh, a sak ih zaehaihnawk to Sithaw mah pahnet pae ai.
5For her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
6Anih mah minawk nuiah sak ih hmuen baktih toengah a nuiah sah ah, a sak ih toknawk baktih toengah alet hnetto pathok ah: anih mah minawk han lawn pae ih baktih toengah, anih han doeh boengloeng alet hnetto kakoiah lawn paeh.
6Give back to her as she has done to others; pay her back double for what she has done; mix her a double portion in her own cup.
7Anih loe zae sakhaih bangah kanawm acaeng moe, angmah hoi angmah to amkoeh, anih mah vaihi patangkhanghaih hoi palungsethaih to hnuk boeh: Babylon mah angmah ih palung thung hoiah, Kai loe siangpahrang zu baktiah kang hnut, lamhmai ah kaom mak ai, natuek naah doeh palungsethaih ka tongh mak ai, tiah thuih.
7As much as she has glorified herself and lived in luxury, give her the same measure of torment and grief. In her heart she says, ‘I sit as queen; I am not a widow and will never see grief.’
8To pongah anih mah nito thungah raihaih, tiah thuih ih duekhaih, palungsethaih, khokhahaih to tong tih; hnukkhuem ah loe anih to hmai hoiah qoeng o tih: anih lokcaekkung loe Thacak Angraeng Sithaw ah oh, tiah van hoiah thuih ih kalah lok maeto ka thaih.
8Therefore her plagues will come in one day— death and grief and famine— and she will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.”
9Nongpa nongpata zaehaih to sak moe, anih hoi kanawm kacaeng long siangpahrangnawk mah anih qoenghaih hmaikhue hnuk o naah, anih to qah o haih ueloe, anih han mikkhraetui long o haih tih,
9Then the kings of the earth who committed sexual immorality and lived in luxury with her will weep and wail at the sight of the smoke rising from the fire that consumes her.
10anih pacaekthlaekhaih to zit o pongah, kangthla ah angdoe o ueloe, Ala, ala, lensawk Babylon vangpui, thacak vangpui! Atue maeto thungah anih lokcaekhaih to phak boeh, tiah thui o tih.
10In fear of her torment, they will stand at a distance and cry out: “Woe, woe to the great city, the mighty city of Babylon! For in a single hour your judgment has come.”
11Long nuiah hmuenmae zaw kaminawk loe, nihcae ih hmuenmae qan kami om ai boeh pongah, anih to qah o haih ueloe, palungsae o haih tih:
11And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, because there is no one left to buy their cargo—
12nihcae ih sui, phoisa, atho kana thlungnawk, palenawk, kahoih kahninawk, kahni kamling, puu kahni hoi kahni kathimnawk, congca thingnawk, tasaino hoi sak ih congca hmuennawk, atho kana congca thingnawk, sum kamling, sum hoi thing kamtaknawk;
12cargo of gold, silver, precious stones, and pearls; of fine linen, purple, silk, and scarlet; of all kinds of citron wood and every article of ivory, precious wood, bronze, iron, and marble;
13cinamon hoi hmuihoih thingnawk, hmuihoih tui hoi hmuihoih tui kamkhawk, misurtui hoi situi, takaw dip hoi takaw sakhaih cangnawk, maitawnawk, tuunawk, hrangnawk, hrang mawtakanawk, misongnawk hoi kami hinghaihnawk to mi mah doeh qan pae o mak ai boeh.
13of cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh, and frankincense; of wine, olive oil, fine flour, and wheat; of cattle, sheep, horses, and chariots; of slaves and souls of men.
14Na koeh ih thingthai loe nang khae hoiah cawnh ving boeh; khosak na hoihhaih hoi na lensawkhaihnawk doeh nang khae hoi anghmat o boih boeh, to hmuennawk to natuek naah doeh na hnu let mak ai boeh.
14And they will say: “The fruit of your soul’s desire has departed from you; all your luxury and splendor have vanished, never to be seen again.”
15To nongpata rang hoiah hmuenmae zaw kaminawk loe angraeng o boeh. Toe anih patangkhanghaih to a zit o pongah, ahmuen kangthla ah angdoe o ueloe, palungset hoiah qah o tih.
15The merchants who sold these things and grew their wealth from her will stand at a distance, in fear of her torment. They will weep and mourn,
16Nihcae mah, Ala, ala, kahoih kahni, kahni kamling, kahni kathim angkhuk, sui, atho kana thlungnawk, palenawk hoi kamthoep, lensawk vangpui!
16saying: “Woe, woe to the great city, clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet, adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls!
17Kawbangmaw to tiah lensawk angraenghaihnawk loe atue maeto thungah anghmat o boih halat! tiah thui o tih. Palong tawnkung, palongpui hoi kholong caeh kaminawk boih, palong thoek kaminawk boih, tuipui hoi hmuenmae zaw kaminawk loe ahmuen kangthla ah angdoe o tih,
17For in a single hour such fabulous wealth has been destroyed!” Every shipmaster, passenger, and sailor, and all who make their living from the sea, will stand at a distance
18anih qoenghaih hmaikhue to hnuk o naah, Hae vangpui hoi kanghmong vangpui oh vop maw? tiah hang o tih.
18and cry out at the sight of the smoke rising from the fire that consumes her. “What city was ever like this great city?” they will exclaim.
19Nihcae mah angmacae lu nuiah maiphu to angphuih o ueloe, palungset hoiah qah o pacoeng ah, Ala, ala, tuipui caehhaih palongpui tawn kaminawk han angraenghaih paekkung, lensawk vangpui loe atue maeto thungah anghmat boih boeh! tiah hang o tih.
19Then they will throw dust on their heads as they weep and mourn and cry out: “Woe, woe to the great city, where all who had ships on the sea were enriched by her wealth! For in a single hour she has been destroyed.”
20Nangcae pacaekthlaekhaih atho, Sithaw mah anih nuiah lu lak boeh pongah, Aw van nang, patoeh ih kaciim kaminawk, tahmaanawk hoi nawnto anghoe o ah.
20Rejoice over her, O heaven, O saints and apostles and prophets, because God has pronounced for you His judgment against her.
21To pacoengah thacak vankami maeto mah kalen pui cang kaehhaih thlung baktiah kaom thlung maeto lak moe, tuipui thungah vah pacoengah, Thacakhaih hoiah Babylon vangpui to hae tiah va ueloe, natuek naah doeh hnu let mak ai boeh.
21Then a mighty angel picked up a stone the size of a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying: “With such violence the great city of Babylon will be cast down, never to be seen again.
22Nang khae hoiah katoeng kruek kaminawk, katoeng kruek kop kaminawk, tamoi ueng kaminawk hoi mongkah ueng kaminawk mah uengh o ih atuen apawk to natuek naah doeh thaih mak ai boeh; nang khae hoiah ban tok sak kop kaminawk to natuek naah doeh hnu mak ai boeh; nang khae hoiah cang kaehhaih atuen natuek naah doeh thaih mak ai boeh.
22And the sound of harpists and musicians, of flute players and trumpeters, will never ring out in you again. Nor will any craftsmen of any trade be found in you again, nor the sound of a millstone be heard in you again.
23Nang khae hoiah natuek naah doeh hmaiim paaanghaih om mak ai boeh; nang khae hoiah natuek naah doeh zu kala thendoeng tangla ih lok to thaih mak ai boeh: nang ih hmuenmae zaw kaminawk loe long nui ih kalen kami ah oh o; miklet na sakhaih hoiah prae kaminawk to na ling boih boeh.
23The light of a lamp will never shine in you again, and the voices of a bride and bridegroom will never call out in you again. For your merchants were the great ones of the earth, because all the nations were deceived by your sorcery.”
24To vangpui thungah long nuiah hum ih, tahmaanawk hoi kaciim kaminawk ih athii longhaih to oh, tiah thuih.
24And there was found in her the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who had been slain on the earth.
