Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1The burden of the wilderness of the sea. As whirlwinds in the South sweep through, it comes from the wilderness, from an awesome land.
1Tuithim ah khosoek lamloh cangpalam bangla tinghil tih, khohmuen lamloh a rhih om neh aka pawk, tuipuei khosoek kah olrhuh.
2A grievous vision is declared to me. The treacherous man deals treacherously, and the destroyer destroys. Go up, Elam; attack! I have stopped all of Media’s sighing.
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.
3Therefore my thighs are filled with anguish. Pains have seized me, like the pains of a woman in labor. I am in so much pain that I can’t hear. I am so dismayed that I can’t see.
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.
4My heart flutters. Horror has frightened me. The twilight that I desired has been turned into trembling for me.
4Tuennah loh kai n'let sak tih ka thinko ah kho a hmang. Ka huengaihnah hlaemhmah te kai ham tah thuennah la poeh.
5They prepare the table. They set the watch. They eat. They drink. Rise up, you princes, oil the shield!
5Caboei te a tloeng. Tlak te doh saeh, mangpa rhoek te ca saeh, o saeh lamtah thoo saeh. photling te koelh saeh.
6For the Lord said to me, “Go, set a watchman. Let him declare what he sees.
6Te dongah Boeipa loh kai taengah, “Cet laeh, rhaltawt te pai saeh lamtah a hmuh te ha puen saeh,” a ti.
7When he sees a troop, horsemen in pairs, a troop of donkeys, a troop of camels, he shall listen diligently with great attentiveness.”
7Leng, marhang caem tarhoi, laak leng, kalauk leng a hmuh vaengah a hnatungnah a yet neh a hnatungnah te hnatung saeh.
8He cried like a lion: “Lord, I stand continually on the watchtower in the daytime, and every night I stay at my post.
8Te phoeiah rhaltoengim kah sathueng loh, “Ka boeipa, kai khothaih puet ka pai tih ka mueitung dongah khoyin puet ka pai bal.
9Behold, here comes a troop of men, horsemen in pairs.” He answered, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the engraved images of her gods are broken to the ground.
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.
10You are my threshing, and the grain of my floor!” That which I have heard from the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, I have declared to you.
10Ka cangtil neh ka cangtilhmuen kah ka ca taengah Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA taeng lamkah ka yaak te ni nangmih taengah ka puen.
11The burden of Dumah. One calls to me out of Seir, “Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?”
11Seir lamloh kai aka khue Dumah olrhuh loh, “Khoyin kah aka tawt khaw melae? khoyin kah aka tawt khaw balae? a ti.
12The watchman said, “The morning comes, and also the night. If you will inquire, inquire. Come back again.”
12Aka tawt loh, “Mincang halo tih hlaemmuei ah na yam khaw na yam vetih na lo khaw na lo uh aih sue,” a ti.
13The burden on Arabia. You will lodge in the thickets in Arabia, you caravans of Dedanites.
13Arabia ham olrhuh, Arabia duup ah naka rhaeh Dedanim lambong rhoek.
14They brought water to him who was thirsty. The inhabitants of the land of Tema met the fugitives with their bread.
14Tuihalh doe ham te Tema kho kah khosa rhoek loh tui hang khuen saeh, amah buh neh aka doe rhoek khaw yong coeng.
15For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, from the bent bow, and from the heat of battle.
15cunghang taeng lamloh, cunghang aka bong mikhmuh lamloh, lii aka phu kah mikhmuh lamloh, caemtloek hnorhih kah mikhmuh lamloh yong uh.
16For the Lord said to me, “Within a year, as a worker bound by contract would count it, all the glory of Kedar will fail,
16Te dongah Boeipa loh kai taengah, “Kum khat khuiah kutloh kum kah bangla om vetih Kedar kah a thangpomnah khaw boeih bawt ni.
17and the residue of the number of the archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, will be few; for the LORD, the God of Israel, has spoken it.”
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.
