¹Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation that hath no shame;

¹Kikai khawm un, ahi, kikai khawm un, zumna neilou nam aw;

²before the decree bring forth, [before] the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of Jehovah come upon you, before the day of Jehovah's anger come upon you.

²Thupiak a kuan khiak main, buhvai banga ni a bei main, na tung ua TOUPa hehna kihtakhuai a hongtun main, na tung ua TOUPa hehna ni a hongtun main.

³Seek ye Jehovah, all ye meek of the earth, that have kept his ordinances; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye will be hid in the day of Jehovah's anger.

³A vaihomna hih, nou leia mi migite tengteng, TOUPA zong un; diktatna zong un, migitna zong un; TOUPA hehna ni ah selin na om kha thei uhi.

⁴For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation; they shall drive out Ashdod at noonday, and Ekron shall be rooted up.

⁴Gaza lah nutsiatin a om dia, Askelon hihgawpin; suntang laiin Asdod a hawl khe ding ua, Ekron a kizung kalh ding.

⁵Woe unto the inhabitants of the sea-coast, the nation of the Cherethites! The word of Jehovah is against you, O Canaan, the land of the Philistines; I will destroy thee, that there shall be no inhabitant.

⁵Tuipi piaua tengte tung a gik hi, Kret namte; TOUPa thu noute demna ahi, Kanaan aw, Philistiate gam; a teng om loudingin ka honhihgawp ding.

⁶And the sea-coast shall be pastures, with cottages for shepherds and folds for flocks.

⁶Huchiin tuipi, piaute louhingnouna ahi dinga, belamchingte a dia inte leh belamhonte a dia huangte toh.

⁷And the coast shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah; they shall feed [their flocks] thereupon; in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening; for Jehovah their God will visit them, and bring back their captivity.

⁷Huan huai piau bel Juda inko omlaite ading ahi ding; huai laiah a belamhonte uh a vak ding uh; nitak lamin Askelon inte ah a kual ding uh; TOUPa a Pathian un amaute a vehin, sala a tang uh pi khe nawn ding a hih jiakin/

⁸I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the revilings of the children of Ammon, wherewith they have reproached my people, and magnified themselves against their border.

⁸A kigitpihte uh tunga kiliansaka, ka mite a kouna uh, Moab kouna leh, Ammon tate gensiatna ka zata hi.

⁹Therefore as I live, saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, a possession of nettles, and saltpits, and a perpetual desolation: the residue of my people shall make a prey of them, and the remnant of my nation shall inherit them.

⁹Huaijiakin sepaihte TOUPa, Israel Pathian ka hin bangin, Chihtaktakin Moab Sodom bang ahi dinga, Ammon tate Gomorra bang, loubineite leh chikhukte tan leh segigea omna; ka mite laka omlaiten a lok ding ua, ka nama omlaiten a maute a luah ding uh.

¹⁰This shall they have for their pride, because they have reproached and magnified themselves against the people of Jehovah of hosts.

¹⁰Sepaihte Toupa mite tunga a kiletsak ua, a kou jiak un, a kisaktheihna jiakun hiai a nei ding uhi.

¹¹Jehovah will be terrible unto them; for he will famish all the gods of the earth; and men shall worship him, every one from his place, even all the isles of the nations.

¹¹Amau tungah TOUPa a lauhuai ding a; lei pathiante tengteng kialin a kiamsak ding; miten amah a be ding ua, mi chih amau akipanin, namte tuikulh gam tengteng na ngawn.

¹²Ye Ethiopians also, ye shall be slain by my sword.

¹²Nou Ethiopiate leng, ka namsaua thaha om ding na hi uhi.

¹³And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria, and will make Nineveh a desolation, and dry like the wilderness.

¹³Huan aman mal douin a khut a lik khe dinga, Assuria a hihse ding; huan Ninevi a kisegawp sak ding, huchiin gamdai bangin a keu ding.

¹⁴And herds shall lie down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: both the pelican and the porcupine shall lodge in the capitals thereof; [their] voice shall sing in the windows; desolation shall be in the thresholds: for he hath laid bare the cedar-work.

¹⁴Huan belamte a lai ah a kual ding ua, namte ganta tengteng; vangawngsau leh sakuh achialtungnungahte khawng a giak ding ua; tohletah a aw in la a sa ding uh; sangkil-ahte siatgopna a om ding; sidar singa nasepte a hihsiat jiakin.Hiai khopi nuamsa pilvangloutaka tenga, a lungtanga, Kei ka hi, kei lou kuamah dang a om kei; chi ahi; bangchidana hongsegawpa, gan tate adia kualna ding hi ahia; kuapeuh a kianga paiin a luisanin, a khut a lehkhum ding hi.

¹⁵This is the joyous city that dwelt carelessly, that said in her heart, I am, and there is none besides me: how is she become a desolation, a place for beasts to lie down in! every one that passeth by her shall hiss, and wag his hand.

¹⁵Hiai khopi nuamsa pilvangloutaka tenga, a lungtanga, Kei ka hi, kei lou kuamah dang a om kei; chi ahi; bangchidana hongsegawpa, gan tate adia kualna ding hi ahia; kuapeuh a kianga paiin a luisanin, a khut a lehkhum ding hi.
