Berean Standard Bible
1A misurdum ham ka lungnah kamah hlo te laa la ka hlai pawn ni. Molsom dongkah laimen ca ah ka lungnah misurdum om.
1I will sing for my beloved a song of his vineyard: My beloved had a vineyard on a very fertile hill.
2Te te a yoe tih a com phoeiah cangsawt misur te a phung. A laklung ah rhaltoengim a sak tih va-am a than pah. Misur a thaih ham te lamtawn dae a rhol la a thaih pah.
2He dug it up and cleared the stones and planted the finest vines. He built a watchtower in the middle and dug out a winepress as well. He waited for the vineyard to yield good grapes, but the fruit it produced was sour!
3Jerusalem khosa neh Judah hlang, tahae ah kai laklo neh ka misurdum laklo ah laitloek uh laeh.
3“And now, O dwellers of Jerusalem and men of Judah, I exhort you to judge between Me and My vineyard.
4Ka misur ham te balae koep ka saii eh? Te ham te bi ka saii moenih a? Misur a thaih te ka lamtawn dae balae tih a rhol la a thaih?
4What more could I have done for My vineyard than I already did for it? Why, when I expected sweet grapes, did it bring forth sour fruit?
5Ka misurdum ah ka saii te nangmih kam ming sak pawn ni. A buk te a khoe vetih cahawp hamla om pawn ni. A vongtung te a phae vetih cawtkoi hamla om pawn ni.
5Now I will tell you what I am about to do to My vineyard: I will take away its hedge, and it will be consumed; I will tear down its wall, and it will be trampled.
6Te te lobuek la ka khueh vetih bah uh mahpawh. Yawt uh voel pawt vetih lota neh hling loh a cun ni. Khomai te khaw ka uen vetih khotlan loh tlan thil mahpawh.
6I will make it a wasteland, neither pruned nor cultivated, and thorns and briers will grow up. I will command the clouds that rain shall not fall on it.”
7Caempuei BOEIPA kah misurdum tah Israel imkhui neh a hlahmaenah thinghloe Judah hlang ni. Tiktamnah te a lamtawn dae thilongnah, duengnah yuengla pangngawlnah lat om ke.
7For the vineyard of the LORD of Hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah are the plant of His delight. He looked for justice, but saw bloodshed; for righteousness, but heard a cry of distress.
8Anunae im neh im loh ben uh tih, lo neh lo khaw a hmuen om pawt hilah ben uh. Khohmuen laklo ah namah bueng a na om rhoe.
8Woe to you who add house to house and join field to field until no place is left and you live alone in the land.
9Ka hna dongah caempuei BOEIPA loh im len khaw imsuep la khueh het mahpawt nim?. A len neh a len khaw khosak sak mahpawt nim?
9I heard the LORD of Hosts declare: “Surely many houses will become desolate, great mansions left unoccupied.
10Misurdum rhoihma parha ah bath pakhat la cul vetih, cangti pai at khaw cangnoek pakhat la cul ni.
10For ten acres of vineyard will yield but a bath of wine, and a homer of seed only an ephah of grain.”
11Anunae mincang ah thoo tih yu a hloem uh tih, hlaemhmah kholaeh duela misurtui a hoem mai.
11Woe to those who rise early in the morning in pursuit of strong drink, who linger into the evening, to be inflamed by wine.
12Amih kah misur buhkoknah te rhotoeng, thangpa, kamrhing, phitphoet neh a thoeih thil. Tedae BOEIPA kah bisai tah paelki uh pawt tih a kut dongkah bibi hmu uh pawh.
12At their feasts are the lyre and harp, tambourines and flutes and wine. They disregard the actions of the LORD and fail to see the work of His hands.
13Te dongah a mingnah tal tih ka pilnam a poelyoe pawn ni. A thangpomnah te khokha kah a hlang la, a hlangping khaw tuihalh loh a koek pah.
13Therefore My people will go into exile for their lack of understanding; their dignitaries are starving and their masses are parched with thirst.
14Te dongah saelkhui loh a hinglu a ka sak tih a rhi om kolla a ka a ang. Te vaengah a rhuepomnah neh a hlangping khaw, amah kah longlonah neh a khuila rholrhol suntla thuk.
14Therefore Sheol enlarges its throat and opens wide its enormous jaws, and down go Zion’s nobles and masses, her revelers and carousers!
15Te dongah hlang he ngam vetih tongpa khaw kunyun ni, koep aka sang kah a mik khaw kunyun uh ni.
15So mankind will be brought low, and each man humbled; the arrogant will lower their eyes.
16Tedae caempuei BOEIPA tah tiktamnah neh sang vetih, a cim Pathen tah duengnah neh ciim uh ni.
16But the LORD of Hosts will be exalted by His justice, and the holy God will show Himself holy in righteousness.
17Te vaengah tuca rhoek loh amamih kah rhamtlim bangla luem uh vetih, boei rhoek kah imrhong ah aka bakuep rhoek loh a caak uh ni.
17Lambs will graze as in their own pastures, and strangers will feed in the ruins of the wealthy.
18Anunae, thaesainah te poeyoek rhuihet neh dumlai leng dongah rhuivaeh bangla aka mawt,
18Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of deceit and pull sin along with cart ropes,
19Te rhoek loh, “A bibi te tawn koeloe la om saeh, te daengah ni m'hmuh vetih ha mop eh. Te vaengah Israel ka a cim cilsuep ha thoeng saeh lamtah ming uh van sih,” a ti uh.
19to those who say, “Let Him hurry and hasten His work so that we may see it! Let the plan of the Holy One of Israel come so that we may know it!”
20Anunae, a thae te a then, a then te a thae aka ti rhoek, khosae yueng la a hmaisuep, hmaisuep yueng la hmaivang aka khueh rhoek, didip te khahing la, khahing te didip la aka khueh rhoek.
20Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who turn darkness to light and light to darkness, who replace bitter with sweet and sweet with bitter.
21Anunae amamih mikhmuh ah aka cueih tih, amamih mikhmuh ah aka yakming rhoek aih.
21Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight.
22Anunae, hlangrhalh rhoek loh misurtui rhoeh a ok tih, tatthai hlang rhoek khaw yu neh rhoeh thoek uh.
22Woe to those who are heroes in drinking wine and champions in mixing beer,
23Halang loh kapbaih dongah a tang sak dae, hlang dueng kah duengnah long tah anih te a voeih.
23who acquit the guilty for a bribe and deprive the innocent of justice.
24Te dongah hmai lai loh vahhu, hmaisai loh diphung a laeh bangla a yung te ungrhem vetih thinghmawn bangla om ni. Caempuei BOEIPA kah olkhueng te a hnawt uh tih, Israel kah a cim olthui te a tlaitlaek uh dongah, amih kah a pailum te laipi bangla poeng ni.
24Therefore, as a tongue of fire consumes the straw, and as dry grass shrivels in the flame, so their roots will decay and their blossoms will blow away like dust; for they have rejected the instruction of the LORD of Hosts and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25BOEIPA kah a thintoek loh a pilnam taengah sai tangloeng coeng. Te vaengah a kut a thueng thil tih a ngawn. Te dongah tlang rhoek khaw tlai uh tih a rhok te rhamvoel laklo ah natcaeh bangla hmoeng. Te boeih nen khaw a thintoek mael pawt tih a kut a thueng pueng.
25Therefore the anger of the LORD burns against His people; His hand is raised against them to strike them down. The mountains quake, and the corpses lay like refuse in the streets. Despite all this, His anger is not turned away; His hand is still upraised.
26Khohla kah namtom rhoek ham rholik a ling pah tih, diklai khobawt ah anih ham kut a ving pah dongah, yanghoep la koe ha pawk coeng ke.
26He lifts a banner for the distant nations and whistles for those at the ends of the earth. Behold—how speedily and swiftly they come!
27Anih tah buhmueh rhathih om pawt tih paloe tlaih pawh. A mikku pawt tih ip bal pawh. A pumpu kah hailaem khaw hlong pawt tih, a khokhom rhui khaw pat pawh.
27None of them grows weary or stumbles; no one slumbers or sleeps. No belt is loose and no sandal strap is broken.
28A thaltang te sum vilcik tih a lii khaw boeih tangkuek. A marhang khomae te hmailung bangla, a humhae te cangpalam bangla a moeh pah.
28Their arrows are sharpened, and all their bows are strung. The hooves of their horses are like flint; their chariot wheels are like a whirlwind.
29Anih kah a kawknah tah sathuengnu bangla kawk la kawk. Sathueng ca bangla a nguel tih maeh khaw a tuuk. A khuen coeng tah huul pah voel pawh.
29Their roaring is like that of a lion; they roar like young lions. They growl and seize their prey; they carry it away from deliverance.
30Tekah khohnin ah tah tuipuei phoenanah bangla a nguel thil ni. Khohmuen te a paelki vaengah khohmuep khobing neh khosae khaw muei loh khoep a hmuep sak ni.
30In that day they will roar over it, like the roaring of the sea. If one looks over the land, he will see darkness and distress; even the light will be obscured by clouds.
