1Tuithim ah khosoek lamloh cangpalam bangla tinghil tih, khohmuen lamloh a rhih om neh aka pawk, tuipuei khosoek kah olrhuh.
1This is the burden against the Desert by the Sea: Like whirlwinds sweeping through the Negev, an invader comes from the desert, from a land of terror.
2Kai taengah mangthui neh mangkhak la ha puen. Hnukpoh long tah hnukpoh coeng tih rhoelrhak long khaw rhoelrhak coeng. Elam te paan laeh, Madai te dum laeh. A hueinah boeih te ka duem sak ni.
2A dire vision is declared to me: “The traitor still betrays, and the destroyer still destroys. Go up, O Elam! Lay siege, O Media! I will put an end to all her groaning.”
3Te dongah ka cinghen he tloh kah a thueknah khaw cung coeng. Ca om vaengkah a tloh bangla kai n'tuuk. Ka yaak nen khaw ka paihaeh tih ka hmuh nawn khaw ka let coeng.
3Therefore my body is filled with anguish. Pain grips me, like the pains of a woman in labor. I am bewildered to hear, I am dismayed to see.
4Tuennah loh kai n'let sak tih ka thinko ah kho a hmang. Ka huengaihnah hlaemhmah te kai ham tah thuennah la poeh.
4My heart falters; fear makes me tremble. The twilight of my desire has turned to horror.
5Caboei te a tloeng. Tlak te doh saeh, mangpa rhoek te ca saeh, o saeh lamtah thoo saeh. photling te koelh saeh.
5They prepare a table, they lay out a carpet, they eat, they drink! Rise up, O princes, oil the shields!
6Te dongah Boeipa loh kai taengah, “Cet laeh, rhaltawt te pai saeh lamtah a hmuh te ha puen saeh,” a ti.
6For this is what the Lord says to me: “Go, post a lookout and have him report what he sees.
7Leng, marhang caem tarhoi, laak leng, kalauk leng a hmuh vaengah a hnatungnah a yet neh a hnatungnah te hnatung saeh.
7When he sees chariots with teams of horsemen, riders on donkeys, riders on camels, he must be alert, fully alert.”
8Te phoeiah rhaltoengim kah sathueng loh, “Ka boeipa, kai khothaih puet ka pai tih ka mueitung dongah khoyin puet ka pai bal.
8Then the lookout shouted: “Day after day, my lord, I stand on the watchtower; night after night I stay at my post.
9Tedae marhang caem tarhoi kah hlang te leng neh ha pawk coeng he,” tila pang. Te phoeiah a doo tih, “Cungku coeng, Babylon neh a pathen mueidaep tah boeih cungku coeng tih diklai dongah phaeng rhek coeng.
9Look, here come the riders, horsemen in pairs.” And one answered, saying: “Fallen, fallen is Babylon! All the images of her gods lie shattered on the ground!”
10Ka cangtil neh ka cangtilhmuen kah ka ca taengah Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA taeng lamkah ka yaak te ni nangmih taengah ka puen.
10O my people, crushed on the threshing floor, I tell you what I have heard from the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel.
11Seir lamloh kai aka khue Dumah olrhuh loh, “Khoyin kah aka tawt khaw melae? khoyin kah aka tawt khaw balae? a ti.
11This is the burden against Dumah: One calls to me from Seir, “Watchman, what is left of the night? Watchman, what is left of the night?”
12Aka tawt loh, “Mincang halo tih hlaemmuei ah na yam khaw na yam vetih na lo khaw na lo uh aih sue,” a ti.
12The watchman replies, “Morning has come, but also the night. If you would inquire, then inquire. Come back yet again.”
13Arabia ham olrhuh, Arabia duup ah naka rhaeh Dedanim lambong rhoek.
13This is the burden against Arabia: In the thickets of Arabia you must lodge, O caravans of Dedanites.
14Tuihalh doe ham te Tema kho kah khosa rhoek loh tui hang khuen saeh, amah buh neh aka doe rhoek khaw yong coeng.
14Bring water for the thirsty, O dwellers of Tema; meet the refugees with food.
15cunghang taeng lamloh, cunghang aka bong mikhmuh lamloh, lii aka phu kah mikhmuh lamloh, caemtloek hnorhih kah mikhmuh lamloh yong uh.
15For they flee from the sword— the sword that is drawn— from the bow that is bent, and from the stress of battle.
16Te dongah Boeipa loh kai taengah, “Kum khat khuiah kutloh kum kah bangla om vetih Kedar kah a thangpomnah khaw boeih bawt ni.
16For this is what the Lord says to me: “Within one year, as a hired worker would count it, all the glory of Kedar will be gone.
17Kedar ca khuikah hlangrhalh lii pom te amah tarhing ah aka sueng khaw Israel Pathen Yahovah loh a thui coeng dongah polpai uh ni,” a ti.
17The remaining archers, the warriors of Kedar, will be few.” For the LORD, the God of Israel, has spoken.
