Isaiah 27
1 To na niah loe kacawn thaih Leviathan pahui to Angraeng mah angmah ih sumsen kanoe, thacak sumsen kalen hoiah hum tih, tuipui thungah kaom angkawn ut ah angkaae pahui pui Leviathan to hum tih.
In that day YHWH lays a charge, With His sword—the sharp, and the great, and the strong, On leviathan—a fleeing serpent, And on leviathan—a crooked serpent, And He has slain the dragon that [is] in the sea.
2 To na niah misurtui kathim pasawhhaih misur takha hanah laa to sah oh.
In that day respond to her, “A desirable vineyard,
3 Kai Angraeng mah takha to ka toep; boeng ai ah tui to ka bawh han; minawk mah paro han ai ah, khoving khodai ka toep han.
I, YHWH, am its keeper, I water it every moment, Lest any lay a charge against it, Night and day I keep it!
4 Misur takha nuiah palung ka phui ai; kapring hoi soekhring mah kai hae na tuh tih maw? Nihcae tuk hanah hmabang ah ka caeh moe, nihcae to hmai hoiah ka thlaek king han.
Fury is not in Me; Who gives Me a brier—a thorn in battle? I step into it, I burn it at once.
5 To tih ai boeh loe abuep hanah kai khaeah angzo o nasoe loe, angdaehhaih sah o nasoe; kai hoi angdaehhaih sah o nasoe.
Or—he takes hold on My strength, [That] he makes peace with Me, [And] he makes peace with Me.”
6 Hmabang ah loe Jakob mah tangzun sah tih; Israel mah apawk to tangmuemh ueloe apawk tih, to tiah long loe athaih hoiah koi tih.
He causes those coming in to take root, Jacob blossoms, and Israel has flourished, And they have filled the face of the world [with] increase.
7 Israel pacaekthlaek kaminawk Angraeng mah pacaekthlaek baktih toengah, Angraeng mah Israel to pacaekthlaek toeng maw? Nihcae hum kaminawk baktiah anih mah Israel to hum maw?
Has He struck him as the striking of his striker? Does He slay as the slaying of his slain?
8 Angraeng mah anih to thuitaek moe, a haek; ni angyae bang ih takhi song naah loe, thacak takhi mah anih to hmuh phaeng.
In measure, in sending it forth, you strive with it, He has taken away by His sharp wind, In the day of an east wind,
9 To pongah Jakob ih acaeng mah Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk ih hmaicam thlungnawk to thungh baktiah kadip puengah ahnoih o moe, thing hoiah sak ih krangnawk, hmuihoih thlaekhaih hmaicamnawk to pakhruk o boih naah ni, nihcae ih zaehaih to ciim vop tih, hae loe anih zae ciimhaih thingthai ah om tih.
Therefore the iniquity of Jacob is covered by this, And this [is] all the fruit—To take away his sin, In his setting all the stones of an altar, As chalkstones beaten in pieces, They do not rise—Asherim and images.
10 Toe kacak sipae hoi pakaa ih vangpui loe angqai krang ueloe, athung ah kami om mak ai, praezaek baktiah pahnawt o sut tih boeh; to ahmuen ah maitaw caanawk to pra o tih, to ah tabok o ueloe, thing tanghangnawk to caa o tih.
For the fortified city [is] alone, A habitation cast out and forsaken as a wilderness, There the calf delights, And there it lies down, And has consumed its branches.
11 Thing tanghangnawk loe zaek ueloe angkhaek tih; to naah nongpatanawk angzo o ueloe, hmaitik hanah la o tih; hae kaminawk loe panoekhaih tawn o ai; to pongah nihcae sahkung loe nihcae nuiah tahmenhaih tawn mak ai, nihcae Omsakkung loe nihcae nuiah tahmenhaih tawn mak ai.
In the withering of its branch it is broken off, Women are coming in [and] setting it on fire, For it [is] not a people of understanding, Therefore its Maker does not pity it, And its Former does not favor it.
12 To na niah Angraeng mah vapui longhaih ahmuen hoi Izip prae vapui khoek to thingthai to pakhrik tih, Aw nangcae Israel caanawk loe maeto pacoeng maeto akhuih ih thingthai ah na om o tih.
And it has come to pass in that day, YHWH beats out from the branch of the river, To the stream of Egypt, And you are gathered one by one, O sons of Israel.
13 To na niah kalen parai mongkah to ueng o tih, Assyria ah kanghmaa kaminawk hoi Izip prae ah misong ah kalaem kaminawk to angzo o ueloe, Jerusalem mae ciim nuiah Angraeng to bok o tih boeh.
And it has come to pass in that day, It is blown with a great horn, And those perishing in the land of Asshur have come in, And those cast out in the land of Egypt, And have bowed themselves to YHWH, In the holy mountain—in Jerusalem!
