Isaiah 32
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice.
1Manghai tah duengnah neh manghai vetih mangpa rhoek loh a tiktam la boei uh ni.
2And a man shall be as in a hiding-place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as by the watercourses in a dry place, as in the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.
2Te vaengah tah khohli vaengkah congket conglong neh hlipuei vaengkah a huephael bangla, rhamrhae kah sokca tui bangla, buhmueh rhathih khohmuen kah thaelpang puei kah hlipkhup bangla boeih om ni.
3And the eyes of them that see shall not be closed, and the ears of them that hear shall attend.
3Aka hmu rhoek loh a mik buem uh voel pawt vetih aka ya kah a hna long khaw hnatung uh pawn ni.
4The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.
4Thinko aka loe long khaw ming hamla a yakming ni. Ol khol khaw a loe la puk cal ni.
5The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be noble.
5Hlang ang te hlangcong la khue voel pawt vetih ngukngak te hlang rhoeikhang ti nah mahpawh.
6For the vile person will speak villainy, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise ungodliness, and to utter wickedness against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
6Lailak la saii ham neh BOEIPA te rholrhaknah thui ham, akaang loh boethaehalang a thui tih a lungbuei kah boethae a saii. Hlang kah hinglu te bungpong la a kaeng tih tuihalh khaw tui-ok loh a vaitah sak.
7The instruments also of the churl are evil; he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, and the needy when he speaketh right.
7Ngukngak loh a boethae hnopai te khonuen rhamtat la a khueh tih, khodaeng loh tiktam a thui vaengah pataeng kodo mangdaeng te a honghi ol neh vueinan hamla caai.
8But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand.
8Tedae hlangcong long tah moeihoeihnah neh a uen tih moeihoeihnah neh pai van.
9Rise up, ye women that are at ease, and hear my voice; ye confident daughters, give ear unto my speech.
9Mongkawt nu rhoek thoo uh lamtah ka ol hnatun uh. Palyal tanu rhoek ka olthui he hnakaeng uh lah.
10After a year and days shall ye be troubled, ye confident women; for the vintage shall fail, the ingathering shall not come.
10Palyal rhoek te kum at hnin at ah na tlai uh bitni. Misurbit loh n'khah vetih cangah khaw pha mahpawh.
11Tremble, ye women that are at ease; be troubled, ye confident ones; strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins,
11Mongkawt nu te lakueng saeh, palyal nu rhoek khaw tlai uh saeh. Hni te pit saeh lamtah a yal la a pumpu te vah saeh.
12Smiting upon the breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine;
12Naidoeh lohma ham neh misur thaihsu ham te rhangsuk mah rhaengsae laeh.
13For the land of my people whereon thorns and briers come up; yea, for all the houses of joy and the joyous city.
13Hling neh lota he ka pilnam kah hmuenlung ham a yam pah coeng tih, khorha kah omthennah dongah aka yalpo imkhui boeih ham pai ni.
14For the palace shall be forsaken; the city with its stir shall be deserted; the mound and the tower shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks;
14Impuei te a phap vetih khopuei a lilup khaw a hnoo ni. Molpuei neh rhaltawt imsang te kohong marhang kah a omthennah neh tuping uemnah la poeh vetih kumhal due lungtokhui la om ni.
15Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.
15Hmuensang lamkah Mueihla te mamih soah han kingling vaengah tah khosoek khaw cangphil cangngol la poeh tih khoham cangphil cangngol bangla a poek.
16Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field.
16Te vaengah tah khosoek ah tiktamnah loh kho a sak vetih, duengnah loh cangphil cangngol te a om thil ni.
17And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and confidence for ever.
17Duengnah kah a khoboe tah rhoepnah la, duengnah kah thohtatnah tah kumhal due mong vetih ngaikhuek la om ni.
18And my people shall abide in a peaceable habitation, and in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting-places.
18Ka pilnam long tah rhoepnah tolkhoeng neh pangtungnah tolhmuen ah duemnah neh a mongkawt la kho a sak ni.
19And it shall hail, in the downfall of the forest; but the city shall descend into the valley.
19Te dongah duup khaw rhael aka bo loh a hnaa vetih khopuei khaw tlarhoelnah la kunyun ni.
20Happy are ye that sow beside all waters, that send forth freely the feet of the ox and the ass.
20Te dae tui kaeng te boeih aka tawn tih vaito neh laak kho neh aka tluek rhoek tah na yoethen uh.
