²Against Egypt, against the army of Pharaohnecho king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah.

³Lum bem te, lum zawl te mansain om unla, gal nawt un,

³Order ye the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle.

⁴Sakol van unla, sakol tuang mite aw, tuang un, dal lukhu khuin ding kip unla, tei tat hiamin sik puannak silh un.

⁴Harness the horses; and get up, ye horsemen, and stand forth with your helmets; furbish the spears, and put on the brigandines.

⁵Bangchidan! A taikekta uh, a dek uh a ngat uh, a galkapmite uh a vuallel uh, baksam leng zenin a tai ua, nunglam nga het louin, ning chihah gal a lang chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi.

⁵Wherefore have I seen them dismayed and turned away back? and their mighty ones are beaten down, and are fled apace, and look not back: for fear was round about, saith the LORD.

⁶Mi juanjang a taimang theikei, galkapmi a pawt tuan kei uh, huaia mi Euphrates lui geiah a hawi ua, a puk khinta uh.

⁶Let not the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape; they shall stumble, and fall toward the north by the river Euphrates.

⁷Nile lui banga hong khang kua ahia? Luipi tui kihot kimvel bangin?

⁷Who is this that cometh up as a flood, whose waters are moved as the rivers?

⁸Aigupta bel Nile lui bangin a khanga luipi tui kihot kimvel bang maiin, ka khang dinga, leitung ka luah sak ding, khopite leh a luahmite ka hihse ding, a chi a.

⁸Egypt riseth up like a flood, and his waters are moved like the rivers; and he saith, I will go up, and will cover the earth; I will destroy the city and the inhabitants thereof.

⁹Aw sakolte aw, nawk zel unla, aw kangtalai aw, nakpiin pang un: galkapmiten ma phut uhenla, Ethopia mi leh Put mi, lum tawimite, Lud mi thalpeu zang siamte toh.

⁹Come up, ye horses; and rage, ye chariots; and let the mighty men come forth; the Ethiopians and the Libyans, that handle the shield; and the Lydians, that handle and bend the bow.

¹⁰For this is the day of the Lord GOD of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for the Lord GOD of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.

¹¹Aw, Aigupta tanu siangthou, Gilead ah hoh tou inla, sing nai nuh chi vala in, damdawi tampi a thawnin na zangta, nanga dingin damna himhim a omkei hi.

¹¹Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou use many medicines; for thou shalt not be cured.

¹³The word that the LORD spake to Jeremiah the prophet, how Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon should come and smite the land of Egypt.

¹⁴Declare ye in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Noph and in Tahpanhes: say ye, Stand fast, and prepare thee; for the sword shall devour round about thee.

¹⁵Bang dia na mi hatte phiat manga om ahi ua? A ding zou kei ua, TOUPAN a paihkhiak jiakin.

¹⁵Why are thy valiant men swept away? they stood not, because the LORD did drive them.

¹⁶Mi tampi a kisui saka, ahi, a kiphu puk lemlum ua, Nuaisiahna namsau taisanin kisa un, i kik ding uh, i pianna gamah i mite kiangah, a chi ua.

¹⁶He made many to fall, yea, one fell upon another: and they said, Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our nativity, from the oppressing sword.

¹⁷Aigupta kumpipa Pharo pen husa lel lian, a hun sehsa a paimang saka, chiin huaiah a kilou uhi.

¹⁷They did cry there, Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he hath passed the time appointed.

¹⁸A hina ka hin sungin zaw, chih Kumpipa, a min sepaihte TOUPA thu pawt ahi hi, tangte laka Tabor tang bangin tuipi china Karmel tang bangin a hongpai ngei ding.

¹⁸As I live, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts, Surely as Tabor is among the mountains, and as Carmel by the sea, so shall he come.

¹⁹O thou daughter dwelling in Egypt, furnish thyself to go into captivity: for Noph shall be waste and desolate without an inhabitant.

²⁰Aigupta bel bawngla hoihtak ahi, himahleh mal akipan nasemmi ding hongkuanin a hongpai hi.

²⁰Egypt is like a very fair heifer, but destruction cometh; it cometh out of the north.

²¹A lak ua sepaih goih laite bel bawngtuia vak thau bang mai ahi uh. A dek uh a ngat ua, a taikek ua, khawl louin, a tunguah a siatna ni uh a tungta ahi, a gawtna hun ding uh:

²¹Also her hired men are in the midst of her like fatted bullocks; for they also are turned back, and are fled away together: they did not stand, because the day of their calamity was come upon them, and the time of their visitation.

²²Gulpi kitholh bang maiin husa a neia, a melmate kitonin a hongpai ua, sing phukmite bangin heii toh a hongsual uh.

²²The voice thereof shall go like a serpent; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.

²³A gam gammang vaksuak zoh louh a honghise ding uh, khaukhup sangin a tamzo ngal ua, sim seng vuallouh ahi uh.

²³They shall cut down her forest, saith the LORD, though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the grasshoppers, and are innumerable.

²⁴Aigupta tanu a zahlak ding, mal lama mi khuta matsakin a om ding.

²⁴The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded; she shall be delivered into the hand of the people of the north.

²⁵The LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saith; Behold, I will punish the multitude of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods, and their kings; even Pharaoh, and all them that trust in him:

²⁶A hinna uh, zong mite khut ah leh Babulon kumpipa Nebukadnezzat leh a nasemmite khut ah ka mansak ding: huai hun chiangin luahin a om ding, nidanglai nite bang mahin, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi.

²⁶And I will deliver them into the hand of those that seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old, saith the LORD.

²⁷Aw Jakob, ka nasempa, lau kenla, aw Israel, lunglel sam ken, Ngai in, gamla pia kipan nang ka honhunkhe sin ngala, na suante leng a saltanna gam ua kipan, Huan, Jakob a hongkik dinga, muang takin a om hiat-hiat dinga, kuamahin a lausak nawn kei ding uh.Aw Jakob, ka nasempa, lau ken, ka honompih ahi, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi: ka hondelh jakna nam tengteng ka beisak dinga, nang jaw ka honbeisak het kei ding: dik takin ka hon gawt dinga, gawt louin ka honkhak kei ding hi.

²⁷But fear not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel: for, behold, I will save thee from afar off, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in rest and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.

²⁸Aw Jakob, ka nasempa, lau ken, ka honompih ahi, chih TOUPA thu pawt ahi: ka hondelh jakna nam tengteng ka beisak dinga, nang jaw ka honbeisak het kei ding: dik takin ka hon gawt dinga, gawt louin ka honkhak kei ding hi.

²⁸Fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith the LORD: for I am with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee: but I will not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly unpunished.
