1Ka tuemkoi dongah ka cak vetih vongup soah khaw ka pai ni. Te vaengah kai taengah metla a thui khaw hmuh ham neh kai kah toelthamnah soah metla thuung ham ka dawn ni.
1I will stand at my guard post and station myself on the ramparts. I will watch to see what He will say to me, and how I should answer when corrected.
2Tedae BOEIPA loh kai n'doo tih, “Mangthui he daek lamtah cabael dongah thuicaih laeh. Te daengah ni aka tae loh te te a yong puei eh.
2Then the LORD answered me: “Write down this vision and clearly inscribe it on tablets, so that a herald may run with it.
3Mangthui he tingtunnah ham pueng oe akhaw a bawtnah te thoeng. Uelh cakhaw a laithae mahpawh. Amah te rhing lah ha pawk rhoe ha pawk bitni, uelh mahpawh.
3For the vision awaits an appointed time; it testifies of the end and does not lie. Though it lingers, wait for it, since it will surely come and will not delay.
4Calak he a khui ah a hinglu a dueng moenih ne. Tedae aka dueng tah a uepomnah neh hing.
4Look at the proud one; his soul is not upright — but the righteous will live by faith —
5Misurtui dongah khaw hlang hnukpoh. Moemlal khaw a uem uh moenih. Anih te saelkhui bangla a hinglu ka tih amah khaw dueknah bangla hah tlaih pawh. Te dongah namtom boeih te amah hamla a kol tih pilnam boeih te amah hamla a coi.
5and wealth indeed betrays him. He is an arrogant man never at rest. He enlarges his appetite like Sheol, and like Death, he is never satisfied. He gathers all the nations to himself and collects all the peoples as his own.
6Amih boeih he amah taengkah moenih a? neh anih te nuettahnah olkael a phueih uh bitni. Te vaengah, “Anunae, amah kah pawt neh me hil nim a kum vetih amah hamla amthah a ludoeng ve,” a ti ni.
6Will not all of these take up a taunt against him, speaking with mockery and derision: ‘Woe to him who amasses what is not his and makes himself rich with many loans! How long will this go on?’
7Nang aka tuk rhoek te buengrhuet thoo tih n'haeng vaengah nang n'tonga sak vetih amih kah maehbuem la na om mahpawt nim?
7Will not your creditors suddenly arise and those who disturb you awaken? Then you will become their prey.
8Namah loh namtom muep na buem dongah khaw, hlang thii phu dongah khaw, khohmuen khorha neh nang n'ngaeh a khui khosa boeih kah kuthlahnah dongah khaw pilnam aka coih boeih loh nang n'buem uh ni.
8Because you have plundered many nations, the remnant of the people will plunder you— because of your bloodshed against man and your violence against the land, the city, and all their dwellers.
9Anunae a im hamla aka thae mueluemnah neh aka mueluem tih yoethae kut lamloh huul uh hamla hmuensang ah a bu aka khueh aih.
9Woe to him who builds his house by unjust gain, to place his nest on high and escape the hand of disaster!
10Na imkhui kah yahpohnah te na taeng tih pilnam muep na kuet dongah na hinglu tah tholh coeng.
10You have plotted shame for your house by cutting off many peoples and forfeiting your life.
11Te dongah pangbueng lamloh lungto te pang vetih thing dong lamkah yael loh a doo ni.
11For the stones will cry out from the wall, and the rafters will echo it from the woodwork.
12Anunae, thii neh kho aka thoong tih dumlai neh khorha aka saelh aih.
12Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed and establishes a town by iniquity!
13Te te caempuei BOEIPA taeng lamkah moenih a te? Pilnam a kohnue he hmai hamla rhoeh coeng. Namtu loh a poeyoek la a tawnba te rhoeh coeng.
13Is it not indeed from the LORD of Hosts that the labor of the people only feeds the fire, and the nations weary themselves in vain?
14Tui loh tuitunli soah a khuk bangla BOEIPA kah thangpomnah aka ming te diklai ah bae ni.
14For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD as the waters cover the sea.
15Anunae, kosi na poem te a hui aka tul tih amih a tlingyal te paelki hamla aka rhuihmil sak.
15Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbors, pouring it from the wineskin until they are drunk, in order to gaze at their nakedness!
16Thangpomnah lamloh yahpohnah na hah bitni. Namah khaw o lamtah hli vaikhai. BOEIPA bantang kah boengloeng namah taengah m'vael vetih nang kah thangpomnah soah yahrhai na poh bitni.
16You will be filled with shame instead of glory. You too must drink and expose your uncircumcision! The cup in the LORD’s right hand will come around to you, and utter disgrace will cover your glory.
17Hlang thii long tih khohmuen khorha neh a khuikah khosa boeih sokah kuthlahnah dongah Lebanon kah kuthlahnah loh nang n'khuk vetih rhamsa kah rhoelrhanah loh n'rhihyawp sak ni.
17For your violence against Lebanon will overwhelm you, and the destruction of animals will terrify you, because of your bloodshed against men and your violence against the land, the city, and all their dwellers.
18Mueithuk he balae a hoeikhang? Te te a saek mueihlawn khaw a picai mai. Tedae amah kah benbonah a hlinsai te a pangtung dongah ni mueirhol olmueh saii hamla ni a khuiah a honghi a thuinuet.
18What use is an idol, that a craftsman should carve it— or an image, a teacher of lies? For its maker trusts in his own creation; he makes idols that cannot speak.
19Anunae thing taengah 'Haenghang laeh'ngolsut lungto taengah 'Haenghang laeh' aka ti nah aih. Te loh n'thuinuet tang aya te? Te te sui neh cak la a boh thil. Tedae hil pakhat khaw a khui ah a om moenih ta.
19Woe to him who says to wood, ‘Awake!’ or to silent stone, ‘Arise!’ Can it give guidance? Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, yet there is no breath in it at all.”
20BOEIPA tah a hmuencim bawkim ah om. Saah lah, diklai pum he a mikhmuh ah om.
20But the LORD is in His holy temple; let all the earth be silent before Him.
