1Ah, the land of the rustling of wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia;
1A, kha jap ging hawhaw gam, Ethiopia gama luite gala om,
2that sends ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of papyrus on the waters, saying, “Go, you swift messengers, to a nation tall and smooth, to a people awesome from their beginning onward, a nation that measures out and treads down, whose land the rivers divide!”
2Tuipi ah, tui tunga tolh longte ah palaite sawlpa! Misawl hattak te aw, nam sang zehzoh mam hehot kiangah, a pawt tung ua kipan tutana mi kihtakhuai takte kiangah, hoh un; namin gam a hawm sek ua, a palpuk sek uhi, a gam uh luiten a hawmjak hi.
3All you inhabitants of the world, and you dwellers on the earth, when a banner is lifted up on the mountains, look! When the trumpet is blown, listen!
3Khovela om tengteng leh leia tengte aw, tangtea chiamtehna takkhiak chiang un en un; pengkul a mut chiang un ngaikhia un.
4For Yahweh said to me, “I will be still, and I will see in my dwelling place, like clear heat in sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.”
4TOUPAN ka kiangah hichiin a chi hi, Ka om kinken dinga, ka omnaah ka en thek dinga; ni sat laia kho lum huhut bang leh buh lak kho lum laia daitui mei bangin, chiin.
5For before the harvest, when the blossom is over, and the flower becomes a ripening grape, he will cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks, and he will cut down and take away the spreading branches.
5Grep loh hun maa, a pak a beia, a pak grep puama a hongom chiangin, ahiang noute theikung attanna temtain a attan sin ngala, ahiang jam dalhte a la mangin a sattan lai ding hi.
6They will be left together for the ravenous birds of the mountains, and for the animals of the earth. The ravenous birds will summer on them, and all the animals of the earth will winter on them.
6Huaite tanga vasa sanechite adingin, leia sate adingin nutsiatin a om ding uh; huchiin vasa sanechten amaute nipi sungin a ne ding ua, leia sa tengtengin phalbi sungin a ne ding uh.Huai hun chiangin, sepaihte TOUPA min omna mun, Zion tangah, sepaihte TOUPA kianga piak dingin Mi sang zehzoh nam pepokte kianga kipan a pawt tung ua kipan tutana mi kihtakhuai takte kianga kipan, kipahman a hontawi ding ua; huai namin gam a hawm jel ua, a palpuk behlap lai ua, a gam u lah luiten a hawmjak hi.
7In that time, a present will be brought to Yahweh of Armies from a people tall and smooth, even from a people awesome from their beginning onward, a nation that measures out and treads down, whose land the rivers divide, to the place of the name of Yahweh of Armies, Mount Zion.
7Huai hun chiangin, sepaihte TOUPA min omna mun, Zion tangah, sepaihte TOUPA kianga piak dingin Mi sang zehzoh nam pepokte kianga kipan a pawt tung ua kipan tutana mi kihtakhuai takte kianga kipan, kipahman a hontawi ding ua; huai namin gam a hawm jel ua, a palpuk behlap lai ua, a gam u lah luiten a hawmjak hi.
