¹Come near, ye nations, to hear; and hearken, ye peoples: let the earth hear, and all its fulness; the world, and all that cometh forth of it.

¹Nam chihte aw, bila za dingin hong nai un; mi chihte aw, ngaikhia un; leitung leh a sunga om tengtengin bilin ja uhen; khovel leh a sunga pata pawt tengteng toh.

²For the wrath of Jehovah is against all the nations, and [his] fury against all their armies: he hath devoted them to destruction, he hath delivered them to the slaughter.

²TOUPAN nam chiteng tunga lungkimlouhna neiin a sepaihte uh tengteng tungah lah hehna a nei ngala; amau tuh a hihmang veka, thah din a peta hi.

³And their slain shall be cast out, and their stink shall come up from their carcases, and the mountains shall be melted with their blood.

³A lak ua thaha omte paih khiakin a om ding ua, a luang namsia uh a paitou vutvut dinga, tangte tuh a sisan ua zulsakin a om ding uh.

⁴And all the host of the heavens shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll; and all their host shall fade away, as a leaf fadeth from off the vine, and as the withered [fruit] from the fig-tree.

⁴Vana omte tengteng hihmanin a om ding ua, van tuh laibu jialchi a jial bang un jialin a om dinga, a omte tengteng tuh, grep gui akipan a nah a vuia a pulh jel bangin leh, theipi kung akipana a nah vuai a pulh jel bangin a vuai khin ua a pulh vek ding uh.

⁵For my sword is bathed in the heavens; behold, it shall come down upon Edom, and upon the people of my ban, to judgment.

⁵Ka namsauin vanah taitakin a dawnta ngala, ngaiin, huai tuh vaihawm dingin Edomte tungah leh ka hamsiat mite tungah a ke ding.

⁶The sword of Jehovah is filled with blood, it is made fat with fatness, with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams; for Jehovah hath a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

⁶TOUPA namsau tuh sisanin a tai dinga, thaunaa thausakin a omta belam noute leh kelte sisanin, belampa gilthautein; TOUPAN Bozrah khuaah kithoihna a neia, Edom gamah leng thahna thupitak a nei hi.

⁷And the buffaloes shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls; and their land shall be soaked with blood, and their dust made fat with fatness.

⁷Gambawngtalte leng kituaka sat paihin a om ding ua, bawngpate bawngtalte toh, a gam un sisan a kham dinga, a leivui uh thaunaa thausakin a om ding.

⁸For it is the day of Jehovah's vengeance, the year of recompenses for the controversy of Zion.

⁸TOUPA phulak ni lah a hita ngala, Zion selna lam thu-a thukna kum.

⁹And the torrents thereof shall be turned into pitch, and its dust into brimstone; yea, the land thereof shall become burning pitch:

⁹A lui tuite long nai dia suahsakin a om dinga, a gam tuh longnai kang luahluah a suak ding hi.

¹⁰it shall not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.

¹⁰Sun leh janin mihsak ahi kei dinga; a meikhu lah khantawnin a tungkah ngoingoi ding; suan om lai siah a siain a om nilouh dinga; khantawn in leng kuamahin a ngap kei ding uhi.

¹¹And the pelican and the bittern shall possess it, and the great owl and the raven shall dwell in it. And he shall stretch out upon it the line of waste, and the plummets of emptiness.

¹¹Tuivagik leh sakuhin huai gam a tang ding ua; simbu leh va-ak huaiah a om ding uh; siatna khau leh pomna sikmumkhat a tungah a khai ding hi.

¹²Of her nobles who should proclaim the kingdom, none are there; and all her princes shall be nought.

¹²A mi hoihte uh gam uk dingin a sam ding ua, himahleh huailaiah kuamah sap ding a om kei ding uh; a mi lian tengteng uh bangmah ahi kei ding uh.

¹³And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles in her fortresses; and it shall be a dwelling-place of wild dogs, a court for ostriches.

¹³A kumpipa un inah loulingneite a pou dinga, a kulhpi sung uah dailing leh lingnok a pou ding; sehalte omna ding leh vasa ngawngsaute adingin inumsung intual ahi ding hi.

¹⁴And there shall the beasts of the desert meet with the jackals, and the wild goat shall cry to his fellow; the lilith also shall settle there, and find for herself a place of rest.

¹⁴Huan, gamdaia, gam sate ngiate toh a kituak ding ua, sathakin a lawm a sam ding; ahi, jan thil lauhuai piin huai laiah omna a bawl dinga, amah adingin khawlna mun ding a mu ding.

¹⁵There shall the arrow-snake make her nest, and lay, and hatch, and gather under her shadow; there also shall the vultures be gathered one with another.

¹⁵Huailaiah simbu thupiin bu a bawl dinga, a tui dia, a keuh dinga, a op khawm ding; ahi, huaiah mute koppih nei chiatin a om khawm ding ding uh.

¹⁶Search ye in the book of Jehovah and read: not one of these shall fail, one shall not have to seek for the other; for my mouth, it hath commanded, and his Spirit, it hath gathered them.

¹⁶TOUPA laibu-ah zong unla, sim un; huaite lakah khat leng kimlou a om kei dinga, khat leng koppih neilou a om kei ding; ka kam ngeiin thu a piaa, a kha ngeiin huaite a pi khawmta ngala.Aman lah amau adingin ai a sansaka, a khuta khaua tehin huai gam a hawmsak chiata; khanawnin a nei ding ua, suan om laiteng huailaiah a om ding uhi.

¹⁷For he himself hath cast the lot for them, and his hand hath divided it unto them with the line: they shall possess it for ever; from generation to generation shall they dwell therein.

¹⁷Aman lah amau adingin ai a sansaka, a khuta khaua tehin huai gam a hawmsak chiata; khanawnin a nei ding ua, suan om laiteng huailaiah a om ding uhi.
