Isaiah 19
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1The burden of Egypt. Behold, the LORD rideth upon a swift cloud, and cometh unto Egypt; and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at His presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt within it.
1Izip kawng pongah thuih ih lok loe, Khenah, Angraeng loe karang parai tamai nuiah angthueng ueloe, Izip prae ah angzo tih boeh; Izipnawk mah sak o ih krang loe anih hmaa ah tasoeh ueloe, Izipnawk ih palung doeh tui baktiah amzawt tih.
2And I will spur Egypt against Egypt; and they shall fight every one against his brother, and everyone against his neighbour; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
2Angmacae hoi angmacae misa angtuksak hanah Izipnawk to ka pahruek han; nihcae loe nawkamya maeto hoi maeto, imtaeng kami maeto hoi maeto, vangpui maeto hoi maeto, prae maeto hoi maeto misa angtuh o tih.
3And the spirit of Egypt shall be made empty within it; and I will make void the counsel thereof; and they shall seek unto the idols, and to the whisperers, and to the ghosts, and to the familiar spirits.
3Izipnawk loe palungboeng o tih, nihcae sak atimhaih doeh kam rosak han; to naah nihcae mah krangnawk, adoi sah kop kaminawk, kadueh kami ih pakhranawk, angzo han koi hmuen tahmaa rumram kaminawk khaeah lokdueng o tih.
4And I will give over the Egyptians into the hand of a cruel lord; and a fierce king shall rule over them, saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts.
4Izipnawk to hmawhsaeng ukkung angraeng ban ah ka paek han, nihcae loe tahmenhaih tawn ai siangpahrang mah uk tih, tiah Angraeng, misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng mah thuih.
5And the waters shall fail from the sea, and the river shall be drained dry,
5Tuipui ih tuinawk loe kang o tih; vapui tuinawk doeh amcap ueloe, kang boih tih.
6And the rivers shall become foul; the streams of Egypt shall be minished and dried up; the reeds and flags shall wither.
6Vapui tuinawk loe ahmui sae tih; Izip prae ih vacong tuinawk to apet ueloe, kang boih tih; akung kaom phroh hoi tuitaeng ah kamzam phrohnawk doeh zaek boih tih boeh.
7The mosses by the Nile, by the brink of the Nile, and all that is sown by the Nile, shall become dry, be driven away, and be no more.
7Tuipui taeng hoi tuiqum ih phrohkungnawk, tui taengah patit ih akungnawk to zaek boih ueloe, dueh tih, hnuk han koi roe om mak ai boeh.
8The fishers also shall lament, and all they that cast angle into the Nile shall mourn, and they that spread nets upon the waters shall languish.
8Tanga naeh kaminawk loe palungsae o ueloe, cakoih patung kaminawk loe qah o tih; palok payang kaminawk doeh thazok o sut tih boeh.
9Moreover they that work in combed flax, and they that weave cotton, shall be ashamed.
9Tlangqui sah kaminawk hoi kahni sah kaminawk doeh azathaih tongh o tih.
10And her foundations shall be crushed, all they that make dams shall be grieved in soul.
10Kahni sah kaminawk poek amro o ueloe, tangka hnuk hanah toksah kaminawk doeh palungboeng o sut tih.
11The princes of Zoan are utter fools; the wisest counsellors of Pharaoh are a senseless counsel; how can ye say unto Pharaoh: 'I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings'?
11Zoan ih angraengnawk loe amthu o tangtang boeh, Faro poekhaih paek kaminawk mah doeh kamthu poekhaih to ni a paek o; kawbangmaw nang mah Faro khaeah, Kai loe palungha capa ah ka oh moe, canghnii siangpahrangnawk ih capa ah ka oh, tiah na naa?
12Where are they, then, thy wise men? And let them tell thee now; and let them know what the LORD of hosts hath purposed concerning Egypt.
12Nang ih palungha kaminawk loe vaihi naah maw oh o? Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng mah Izip nuiah sak atimhaih to panoek o nasoe loe, vaihi na thui o nasoe.
13The princes of Zoan are become fools, the princes of Noph are deceived; they have caused Egypt to go astray, that are the corner-stone of her tribes.
13Zoan ih angraengnawk loe amthu o boeh moe, Noph ih angraengnawk loe aling thaih kami ah oh o boeh; Izip prae ah kaom acaeng zaehoikungnawk doeh loklam pazaesak boih boeh.
14The LORD hath mingled within her a spirit of dizziness; and they have caused Egypt to stagger in every work thereof, as a drunken man staggereth in his vomit.
14Angraeng mah nihcae salakah anghmanghaih pakhra to kraih pae pongah, mu paqui kami mah angmah ih tamlok nuiah angsong baktih toengah, Izipnawk loe hmuennawk sak pazae o boih boeh.
15Neither shall there be for Egypt any work, which head or tail, palm-branch or rush, may do.
15Lu maw, tamai maw, tanghang maw, akung maw, Izip prae mah sak thaihaih, tidoeh tawn mak ai.
16In that day shall Egypt be like unto women; and it shall tremble and fear because of the shaking of the hand of the LORD of hosts, which He shaketh over it.
16To na niah Izipnawk loe nongpatanawk baktiah om o tih; misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng mah nihcae nuiah ban to takhoek thuih pongah, zit loiah nihcae loe tasoehhaih hoiah om o tih.
17And the land of Judah shall become a terror unto Egypt, whensoever one maketh mention thereof to it; it shall be afraid, because of the purpose of the LORD of hosts, which He purposeth against it.
17Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng mah Izip prae nuiah, kasae sak han pacaeng boeh pongah, Judah prae loe Izipnawk hanah zitthok prae ah om ueloe, Judah prae, tiah thuih ih ahmin thaih kaminawk boih zii o tih.
18In that day there shall be five cities in the land of Egypt that speak the language of Canaan, and swear to the LORD of hosts; one shall be called The city of destruction.
18To na niah Izip prae ih vangpui panga tonawk loe, Kanan kaminawk mah apaeh ih lok to apae o ueloe, misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng hmaa ah oep om lokkamhaih to sah o tih; to vangpuinawk thung ih vangpui maeto loe Amrohaih Vangpui, tiah kawk o tih.
19In that day shall there be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof to the LORD.
19To na niah loe Izip prae thungah Angraeng han hmaicam maeto om ueloe, ramri ah doeh Angraeng panoek poehaih thlung to om tih.
20And it shall be for a sign and for a witness unto the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they shall cry unto the LORD because of the oppressors, and He will send them a saviour, and a defender, who will deliver them.
20To thlung loe Izip prae thungah misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng maathaih hoi hnukung ah om tih; minawk mah pacaekthlaek o pongah, nihcae loe Angraeng khaeah hang o tih; to naah anih mah nihcae pahlongkung hoi thacak lensawk kami to patoeh ueloe, anih mah nihcae to pahlong tih.
21And the LORD shall make Himself known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know the LORD in that day; yea, they shall worship with sacrifice and offering, and shall vow a vow unto the LORD, and shall perform it.
21To tiah Angraeng loe angmah hoi angmah to Izip kaminawk khaeah angphong tih, to na niah loe nihcae mah Angraeng to panoek o ueloe, nihcae mah Angraeng khaeah angbawnhaih hoi hmuen tathlanghaih to sah o tih boeh; ue, nihcae mah Angraeng khaeah lokkamhaih to sah o ueloe, a lokkam o haih baktih toengah sah o tih boeh.
22And the LORD will smite Egypt, smiting and healing; and they shall return unto the LORD, and He will be entreated of them, and will heal them.
22Angraeng mah Izip prae to bop tih; bop ueloe bohhaih ahmaa to hoisak let tih; nihcae doeh Angraeng khaeah angqoi o tih, to naah nihcae tahmen hnikhaih to Angraeng mah thaih pae ueloe, nihcae to ngantuisak tih.
23In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria; and the Egyptians shall worship with the Assyrians.
23To na niah loe Izip prae hoi Assyria prae khoek to manglaih lampui to om tih; Assyria kaminawk loe Izip prae ah caeh o tih, Izip kaminawk doeh Assyria prae ah caeh o tih, Izip kaminawk loe Assyria kaminawk hoi nawnto Sithaw to bok o tih boeh.
24In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth;
24To na niah Israel loe Izip prae hoi Assyria prae pacoengah, long nuiah tahamhoihaih katongh, thumto haih ah om tih;
25for that the LORD of hosts hath blessed him, saying: 'Blessed be Egypt My people and Assyria the work of My hands, and Israel Mine inheritance.'
25misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng mah nihcae khaeah, Kai ih kami Izipnawk, ka ban hoiah sak ih Assyria kaminawk, kai ih qawk ah kaom Israel caanawk loe, tahamhoihaih om nasoe, tiah tahamhoihaih paek tih.
