Isaiah 60
1 Angthawk ah loe aang ah; na aanghaih phak boeh; Angraeng lensawkhaih na nuiah phak boeh.
Arise, shine! for thy light is come, And the glory of Jehovah is risen upon thee.
2 Khenah, vinghaih mah long to khuk hmoek, khoving mah kaminawk to khuk khoep; toe Angraeng loe na nuiah angzo ueloe, a lensawkhaih to na nuiah amtueng tih.
For, behold, darkness shall cover the earth, And gross darkness the nations; But upon thee shall Jehovah arise, And his glory shall be seen upon thee.
3 Gentel kaminawk loe na aanghaih thungah angzo o tih; siangpahrangnawk doeh akhawnbang ih na aanghaih thungah angzo o tih.
Nations shall come to thy light, And kings to the brightness that riseth upon thee.
4 Na taengah kaom kaminawk boih to dan ah; nihcae loe nang khaeah angzoh o moe, nawnto amkhueng o; na capanawk loe ahmuen kangthla hoiah angzo o tih, na canunawk loe nang khetzawn hanah na taengah om o tih.
Lift up thine eyes round about and see! They all gather themselves together, and come to thee; Thy sons come from afar, And thy daughters are carried at thy side.
5 Na hnuk naah na mikhmai to aang tih, na palung tasoeh ueloe, anghoehaih hoiah na koi tih; tuipui thung ih hmuennawk loe nang ih hmuen ah angcoeng tih, Gentelnawk angraenghaih doeh nang khaeah angzo tih.
Then shalt thou see, and be bright with joy; Thy heart shall throb, and swell with delight, When the riches of the sea shall be turned toward thee, And the wealth of the nations shall come to thee.
6 Na prae loe tahnongsawk hrangnawk, Midian prae hoi Ephah prae ih tahnongsawk hrangnawk hoiah koi tih; Sheba prae ih kaminawk boih angzo o tih; nihcae mah sui hoi hmuihoih tui to sin o ueloe, Angraeng saphawhaih lok to taphong o sak tih.
A multitude of camels shall cover thee, Dromedaries from Midian and Ephah; From Sheba shall they all come. Gold and frankincense shall they bring, And proclaim the praises of Jehovah.
7 Kedar ih tuunawk boih nang khaeah nawnto amkhueng o tih; Nebaioth ih tuu taenawk mah na tok to sah o tih; nihcae loe talawk koi kaom angbawnhaih hmuen hoiah ka hmaicam nuiah daw o tahang tih; to naah ka lensawkhaih im to ka lensak aep han.
All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered to thee, And the rams of Nebaioth shall minister to thee; They shall ascend mine altar, an acceptable offering, And my glorious house I will adorn.
8 Mi maw tamai baktiah kasong, tabu ohhaih ahmuen ah kazawk pahuu baktiah kaom?
Who are these that fly like clouds, And like doves to their habitations?
9 Anih mah nang ang pakoeh pongah, na capanawk loe a tawnh o ih sui hoi sumkanglungnawk to ahmuen kangthla hoiah sin o, Angraeng na Sithaw ih ahmin hoiah Ciimcai Israel Sithaw khaeah sin o hanah, tuipui mah takui ih prae thungah kaom kaminawk mah kai to na zing o tih, Tarshish ih palongpuinawk to angzo o hmaloe tih.
Behold, the distant coasts shall wait for me, And the ships of Tarshish among the first, To bring thy sons from afar, And their silver and their gold with them, Because of the name of Jehovah thy God, Of the Holy One of Israel, for he glorifieth thee.
10 Prae kalah kaminawk mah nang ih sipae to sah o let tih, nihcae ih siangpahrangnawk mah na tok to sah o tih; palung ka phui naah kang boh o, toe na nuiah palungnathhaih kam tuengsak han vop.
The sons of the stranger shall build up thy walls, And their kings shall minister to thee; For in my wrath I smote thee, But in my mercy will I have pity upon thee.
11 Gentelnawk angraenghaih to lak moe, nihcae ukkung siangpahrangnawk hoih hanah, na khongkhanawk to khoving khodai paong poe tih, kha mak ai boeh.
Thy gates shall be open continually; They shall not be shut by day or by night, That the treasures of the nations may be brought to thee, And that their kings may come with their retinues.
12 Na tok sak koeh ai acaeng hoi prae loe anghmaa o tih; ue, to acaengnawk loe anghma angtaa o tih.
For that nation and that kingdom Which will not serve thee shall perish; Yea, those nations shall be utterly destroyed.
13 Ka hmuenciim to pathoep hanah Lebanon lensawkhaih nang khaeah angzo tih, hmaica thing, hmuihoih thing hoi saipress thingnawk to nang khaeah sin o tih; ka khok koenghaih ahmuen to ka lensak han.
The glory of Lebanon shall come to thee, The cypress, the plane-tree, and the larch together, To adorn the place of my sanctuary, That I may make the place where my feet rest glorious.
14 Nangcae pacaekthlaek kaminawk ih capanawk angzo o ueloe, nang khaeah akuep o tih; nangcae hnaphnae kaminawk boih doeh na khokkung ah tabok o tih; Nang to Angraeng ih vangpui, Ciimcai Israel Sithaw ih Zion, tiah na kawk o tih.
The sons of thine oppressors shall come bending before thee; They that despised thee shall fall down at thy feet; And they shall call thee the city of Jehovah, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15 Pahnawt sut moe, na hnukma boeh pongah, mi mah doeh nang to na caeh haih mak ai boeh, dungzan lensawkhaih hoi angzo han koi acaanawk boih anghoehaih ah kang sak han.
Instead of being forsaken and hated, So that no one passed through thee, I will make thee an everlasting glory; The joy of many generations.
16 Gentel kaminawk ih tahnutui to na nae ueloe, siangpahrang ih tahnutui doeh na nae tih, to naah Kai loe, Angraeng, nang pahlongkung, nang krangkung, thacak Jakob ih Sithaw ni, tiah na panoek tih.
Thou shalt also suck the milk of the nations, And be nursed from the breast of kings; And thou shalt know that I, Jehovah, am thy saviour, That thy redeemer is the Mighty One of Jacob.
17 Khang laom ngan zuengah, sui to ka sin moe, sum zuengah sumkanglung to ka sin han; thing zuengah sumkamling to ka sin moe, thlung zuengah sum to ka sin han; nangcae ukkung angraengnawk to monghaih hoiah ka ohsak moe, lokcaekkungnawk khaeah toenghaih to ka paek han.
Instead of brass will I bring gold; And instead of iron will I bring silver, And instead of wood, brass, And instead of stones, iron; I will make thine officers peace, And thy magistrates righteousness.
18 Na prae thungah athii longhaih to na thaih mak ai, na prae angzithaih thungah amrohaih hoi anghmathaih om mak ai boeh; nangmah ih sipaenawk to Pahlonghaih, tiah na kawk ueloe, na khongkhanawk to Pakoehhaih, tiah na kawk tih boeh.
Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, Wasting or destruction within thy borders; Thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, And thy gates Praise.
19 Ni loe athun ah nang han aanghaih paekkung ah om mak ai boeh, khrah mah doeh aqum ah aanghaih na paek mak ai boeh; Angraeng loe nang hanah dungzan aanghaih ah om ueloe, na Sithaw loe na lensawkhaih ah om tih boeh.
No more shall the sun be thy light by day, Nor with her brightness shall the moon enlighten thee: But Jehovah shall be to thee an everlasting light, And thy God thy glory.
20 Nang ih ni loe duemh mak ai ueloe, nang ih khrah doeh azaem mak ai boeh; Angraeng loe nang ih dungzan aanghaih ah om ueloe, palung na sethaih aninawk to boeng tih boeh.
Thy sun shall no more go down, Neither shall thy moon be hid; For Jehovah shall be thine everlasting light, And the days of thy mourning shall be ended.
21 Nang ih kaminawk doeh toenghaih hnu o boih tih, nihcae loe ka ban hoi ka thling ih akung ah om tih, ka lensawkhaih amtuengsak hanah, prae to dungzan khoek to toep o tih boeh.
Thy people shall be all righteous; Forever shall they possess the land, The scion of my planting, The work of my hands, that I may be glorified.
22 Nawkta maeto loe kami sangto ah angpung tih, tetta kami doeh thacak acaeng ah angcoeng tih boeh; Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh, atue phak naah to hmuennawk to ka sak phrat han, tiah thuih.
The little one shall become a thousand, And the small one a strong nation; I, Jehovah, will hasten it in its time.
