¹At the same time, saith the LORD, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.

²TOUPAN hichiin a chi: Namsau thah valten, gamdai gamah hehpihna a loh ua; ka khawl tawldamsak laiin.

²Thus saith the LORD, The people which were left of the sword found grace in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest.

³Nidanga ka kianga TOUPA hongkilang in, hichiin a chi: Ahi, it tawp louin ka honita, huaijiakin lainatna ka honkai hi.

³The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.

⁴Ka honding thak sak ding, aw: nungak siang thou Israel, din kipsak na honghi dinga, na khuangte toha kijemin na im nawn dinga, nuamsak lai lamna munte ah na tel ding.

⁴Again I will build thee, and thou shalt be built, O virgin of Israel: thou shalt again be adorned with thy tabrets, and shalt go forth in the dances of them that make merry.

⁵Grep huante Samari tangdung tawnin na bawl dinga, tengmiten a ching ding ua, a gahte a ne ding uh.

⁵Thou shalt yet plant vines upon the mountains of Samaria: the planters shall plant, and shall eat them as common things.

⁶Ephraim tanggamte ah, chingmite ki kou ni a tung sin hi. Thou un, Zion ah i hoh ding uh, TOUPA i Pathian uh kiangah, chiin.

⁶For there shall be a day, that the watchmen upon the mount Ephraim shall cry, Arise ye, and let us go up to Zion unto the LORD our God.

⁷TOUPAN hichiin a chi hi, Jakob adingin nuaminlasa unla, nam thupipen adingin kikou khia un, phuang unla, pahtawi unla, TOUPA Israel om sun, na mite hondamin, chi un.

⁷For thus saith the LORD; Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout among the chief of the nations: publish ye, praise ye, and say, O LORD, save thy people, the remnant of Israel.

⁸Ngai un, mal gam akipanin ka honpi ding, kawlmong tawpa kipan kipan ka kaikhawm ding, mittaw te, khebai te, numei naupaite, nauvei lel te toh, mipi thupi tak a hongtung khawm ding uh.

⁸Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the coasts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together: a great company shall return thither.

⁹Khitui toh a hongpai ding ua, khamuang tak in ka pi ding, tui luang lamte ah ka vak sak dinga, a kisuih louhna ding uh lam tang ahte; Israel adingin lah pa ka hi ngala. Ephraim bel ka ta chil ahi.

⁹They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.

¹⁰Aw namte aw, TOUPA thu ngaikhia unla, tui gei gam gamlapi ahte phuang unla, Israel dalhsakpan a pi khawm nawn dinga, Belamchingpan a belamte a kem bangin a kem ding chiin.

¹⁰Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.

¹¹Jakob bel TOUPAN a tankhiaa, a sanga hat akipan a hunkhe ngala.

¹¹For the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and ransomed him from the hand of him that was stronger than he.

¹²Zion vum ah lasain a hongpai ding ua, TOUPA hoihna ah a kipak ding ua, buhte, uainte, thaute, belam leh ganhon noute tungahte a kipak ding uh; a hinna uh huai tui vak bang ahi dinga, khantawnin a lungkham nawn ket kei ding uh.

¹²Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of the LORD, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all.

¹³Huan, nungak siangthoute lamin a nuam ding ua, tangvalte leng a tek a khang in a nuam ding uh. A lusunna uh kipahna dingin ka suaksakin ka khamuan ding a dahna ua kipan ka kipaksak dinga.

¹³Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together: for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.

¹⁴Siampute hinna thauin ka taisak dinga, ka hoihnain ka mite leng a tai ding uh, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi.

¹⁴And I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness, saith the LORD.

¹⁵TOUPAN hichiin a chi: Rama khuaa husa a ja ua, misi ngaia kap huhut, Rakilin a tate a kaha, a tate aom nawn louh jiak in khamuan theih ahi kei hi.

¹⁵Thus saith the LORD; A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rahel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not.

¹⁶TOUPAN hichiin a chi: Kap lou dingun na aw dek inla, na khitui hul hen, na thilhihin kipahman a nei sin hi chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi.

¹⁶Thus saith the LORD; Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears: for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the LORD; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy.

¹⁷Na hun tawp lam adingin lametna a oma, amau gam ngeiah na tate a hongkik nawn ding uh, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi.

¹⁷And there is hope in thine end, saith the LORD, that thy children shall come again to their own border.

¹⁸Ephraim huchibang kikah ka za peuhmaha, Nang nin gawta, bawngtal tuai sawi louh bang maiin saw ka hi a, honkiksak inla, ka kik ding hi, TOUPA ka Pathian lah na hi ngala.

¹⁸I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus; Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock unaccustomed to the yoke: turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art the LORD my God.

¹⁹Na honkiksak khit nungin ka kisik a, non thuzoh khit nungin ka pheipi ka benga, ka zuma, ahi, ka tuailai min siat tuakin ka amhia hi, achia.

¹⁹Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I smote upon my thigh: I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth.

²⁰Ephraim bel ka tapa deihtak, ka nau deihtak ahijiak hia amah ka thunun tenga ka lungtanga a ten chinten nak? Huchiin ka lungtang-in amah a lainat seka, a tungah zah ka ngai ngeisin ahi, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi.

²⁰Is Ephraim my dear son? is he a pleasant child? for since I spake against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my bowels are troubled for him; I will surely have mercy upon him, saith the LORD.

²¹Lampi chiamtehna kibawl inla, nang adingin lampi kawkmuhnate phutin, na vapawtna lam lampi, lampipen lamngei chiamteh chinten in: aw nungak siangthou Israel, hongkik nawnin, hiai na khopi lamte ah ngei.

²¹Set thee up waymarks, make thee high heaps: set thine heart toward the highway, even the way which thou wentest: turn again, O virgin of Israel, turn again to these thy cities.

²²Aw, nang tanu nungtawn, bang tan ahia na vial vakvak sin? TOUPAN leiah thil thak a bawl taa, numeiin pasal ahum zota.

²²How long wilt thou go about, O thou backsliding daughter? for the LORD hath created a new thing in the earth, A woman shall compass a man.

²³Israel Pathian, sepaihte TOUPAN hichiin a chi: A saltanna ua kipan ka pi kik hun chiangin Juda gam leh a khopite ah hichibang paukam a zang nawn ding uh. Aw, diktatna tenna mun, Aw tang siangthou, TOUPAN honvualjawl hen, chih.

²³Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; As yet they shall use this speech in the land of Judah and in the cities thereof, when I shall bring again their captivity; The LORD bless thee, O habitation of justice, and mountain of holiness.

²⁴Huailai ah Judate leh a khopi ua mi tengteng a teng khawm ding ua, lou numeite leh ganvulmite toh.

²⁴And there shall dwell in Judah itself, and in all the cities thereof together, husbandmen, and they that go forth with flocks.

²⁵Mi bahte ka taisaktaa, mi lungkham peuhmahte leng ka hihhata ngala.

²⁵For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.

²⁶Huchiin ka honghalha, ka nga vialviala, mang hoihtak a na hia.

²⁶Upon this I awaked, and beheld; and my sleep was sweet unto me.

²⁷Ngaidih, nite a hongtung sin hi, Israel inkote leh Juda inkote ah mihing chi leh gan chi ka tuh ding, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi.

²⁷Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man, and with the seed of beast.

²⁸Huan, hichi ahi dinga, amau bot khiaa, hihjan leh paikhiaa, hihmanga, hihgim dinga ka tan bangin amau ding hoihsak ding leh tungding dingin ka enkhia leuleu ding, chih TOUPA thupawt ahi.

²⁸And it shall come to pass, that like as I have watched over them, to pluck up, and to break down, and to throw down, and to destroy, and to afflict; so will I watch over them, to build, and to plant, saith the LORD.

²⁹Huai nitein, Paten grep thuk a ne ua, a tate uh ha a jaua, a chi nawn ngeikei ding uh.

²⁹In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children's teeth are set on edge.

³⁰Mi chihin amau gitlouhna a sihpih zo ding ua, grep thuk ne peuhmah ha a jau ding hi.

³⁰But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge.

³¹Ngai dih, nite a hongtung sin, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi: huai nite ah Israel inkote leh Juda inkote kiangah thukhun thak ka bawl ding.

³¹Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:

³²A pipute uh Aigupta gam akipana pi khe dinga a khut uh ka let nia ka thukhun bang hilouin, amau dia heute ka hihin leng ka thukhun a boh sia ua, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi.

³²Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:

³³Huaini khit chianga Israel inkote kianga thu ka khun ding bel hiai ahi, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi: a sunggil uah te ka thupiak ka koih dinga, a lungtang uah ak gelh lai dinga, kei a Pathian uh ka hi dinga, amau ka mite ahi ding uh;

³³But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.

³⁴Kuamahin, TOUPA theiin, chiin amau invengte leh amau unau a hihl snta kei ua; a neupen akipanin a lianpen tanin a vak un a honthei chiat sin ngal ia, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi: a bohsiatna uh ka ngaidam dinga, a khelhna uh leng ka thei gige sin ngal keia, chiin.

³⁴And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

³⁵Hichiin TOUPA, sun vaksak dinga ni pepe, kha leh akste adia dante sksaka, jan vaksak dinga pepa, tui kihotte ging honhon dinga tuipi tokthoupan a chi ahi: a min sepaihte TOUPA ahi.

³⁵Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name:

³⁶Hiai dan seh te ka maa kipan a man a leh Israel suante ka ma akipanin nam hih a tawm den sam ding uh, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi.

³⁶If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the LORD, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever.

³⁷TOUPAN hichiin a chi: Tunglam van teh theih a hiha, lei kingaknate jawnkhiak theih ahihleh Israel suante a thilhih zohsate uh jiakin ka pai mang sam ding, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi.

³⁷Thus saith the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the LORD.

³⁸Ngai in, nite a hongtung lellel hi, Hananal insing akipanin kulh ning kongpi tanin TOUPA adin khopi lamkhiak ahi, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi.

³⁸Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the city shall be built to the LORD from the tower of Hananeel unto the gate of the corner.

³⁹A tehna khau bel Gareb tang tanin tang takin a pai zenzen dinga, Goa lamah a kawi ding.Misi luang leh vut paihna guam pumpi leh gamlak tengteng, Kidron luiguam tanin, suah lamsang Sakol Kongpi ning tan TOUPA dinga tan ding ahi; huai bel chikchiang maha hihjak leh phelh hi nawn lou ding in.

³⁹And the measuring line shall yet go forth over against it upon the hill Gareb, and shall compass about to Goath.

⁴⁰Misi luang leh vut paihna guam pumpi leh gamlak tengteng, Kidron luiguam tanin, suah lamsang Sakol Kongpi ning tan TOUPA dinga tan ding ahi; huai bel chikchiang maha hihjak leh phelh hi nawn lou ding in.

⁴⁰And the whole valley of the dead bodies, and of the ashes, and all the fields unto the brook of Kidron, unto the corner of the horse gate toward the east, shall be holy unto the LORD; it shall not be plucked up, nor thrown down any more for ever.
