Isaiah 63
1 Kahni kamling hoi kahoih parai khukbuen to angkhuk moe, lensawkhaih hoi hmabang ah kacaeh, Edom prae Bozrah hoiah angzo kami loe mi aa? To kami loe toenghaih lok kathui, pahlong han thacakhaih katawn, Kai hae boeh ni.
Who is this that cometh from Edom, with deep-red garments from Bozrah, this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? — I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.
2 Tipongah nang ih kahni loe thim moe, misurthaih pasaw kaminawk ih kahni baktiah oh loe?
— Wherefore is redness in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winevat?
3 Kaimabueng ni misurthaih ka pasawh; mi doeh kai khaeah om ai; palungphuihaih hoiah nihcae to ka tit moe, palungphui hoiah nihcae to ka cawh; nihcae ih athii mah kai ih kahni tacawn thuih pongah, kai ih kahni loe thim boih boeh.
I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the peoples not a man was with me; and I have trodden them in mine anger, and trampled them in my fury; and their blood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all mine apparel.
4 Lu lakhaih ni ka poek li naah, kai akranghaih saning to phak.
For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year of my redeemed had come.
5 Ka khet naah, kai bomkung mi doeh ka hnu ai; kai patawnkung mi doeh om ai pongah, palung ka boeng sut; to pongah kaimah ban mah kaimah hanah pahlonghaih to sak boeh; palung ka phuihaih mah kai ang patawnh.
And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: and mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me.
6 Palungphuihaih hoiah kaminawk to ka tit boeh, palung ka phuihaih hoiah nihcae to mu ka paquisak moe, nihcae ih athii to long ah ka kraih boeh.
And I have trodden down the peoples in mine anger, and made them drunk in my fury; and their blood have I brought down to the earth.
7 Angraeng mah aicae nuiah sak ih hmuennawk, a tahmenhaih hoi kathuk parai amlunghaih, Israel imthung takoh nuiah sak ih kalen parai kahoih hmuen pongah, Angraeng amlunghaih hoi tahmenhaih to ka thuih han.
I will record the loving-kindnesses of Jehovah, the praises of Jehovah, according to all that Jehovah hath bestowed upon us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel which he hath bestowed upon them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his loving-kindnesses.
8 Nihcae loe kai ih kami tangtang ni, lok amlai ai kami ih caa ah oh o; to pongah anih loe nihcae pahlongkung ah oh.
And he said, They are indeed my people, children that will not lie; and he became their Saviour.
9 Nihcae patangkhang o naah, anih doeh patangkhang toeng, a hmaa ah kaom van kaminawk mah nihcae to pahlong moe, a palunghaih hoi tahmenhaih mah nihcae to akrang; canghnii hoi boeh ni nihcae to khetzawn moe, a zaehhoih.
In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the Angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bore them and carried them all the days of old.
10 Toe nihcae mah anih ih lok to aek o moe, anih ih Muithla to palungset o sak; to pongah nihcae to misa ah suek moe, a tuk.
But they rebelled and grieved his holy Spirit: and he turned to be their enemy; himself, he fought against them.
11 To naah angmah ih kaminawk mah canghnii ih aninawk, Mosi ih kaminawk hoi anih dung nathuem ih atuenawk to poek o vawk moe, tuipui thung hoiah angmah ih kaminawk zaehoikung, angmah ih tuu toepkung loe naa ah maw oh? Nihcae salakah angmah ih Kacai Muithla suemkung loe naa ah maw oh?
But he remembered the days of old, Moses [and] his people: Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he that put his holy Spirit within him,
12 Mosi ih bantang ban thacak sakkung, anih ih ahmin cak poe thai hanah, nihcae hmaa ah tui pakhoihkung,
his glorious arm leading them by the right hand of Moses, dividing the waters before them, to make himself an everlasting name,
13 nihcae amthaek han ai ah praezaek ah hrang angthueng baktih toengah, kathuk tuipui thung hoiah nihcae zaehoikung loe naa ah maw oh? tiah thuih o.
— who led them through the depths, like a horse in the wilderness, [and] they stumbled not?
14 Azawn ah caeh tathuk moi baktih toengah, Angraeng ih Muithla mah nihcae to anghakhaih paek; na hmin lensawksak poe hanah, nangmah ih kaminawk to hae tiah na zaehhoih.
As cattle go down into the valley, the Spirit of Jehovah gave them rest; so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.
15 Van hoi doeng tathuk ah, khenah, ciimcai moe, lensawk na ohhaih ahmuen hoiah na khen tathuk ah; na poek thacakhaih, na tha ohhaih, kaicae na tahmenhaih hoi amlunghaih loe naa ah maw oh? Nang qoi taak ving boeh maw?
Look down from the heavens, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory! Where is thy zeal and thy strength, the sounding of thy bowels and of thy tender mercies? Are they restrained toward me?
16 Abraham mah kaicae hae panoek ai moe, Israel mah na maat ai langlacadoeh, nang loe kaicae ih Ampa ah na oh; Aw Angraeng, nang loe kaicae Ampa, canghnii hoiah kaom poe, kaicae Krangkung ah na oh.
For thou art our Father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, Jehovah, art our Father; our Redeemer, from everlasting, is thy name.
17 Aw Angraeng, tipongah kaicae hae na loklam hoiah nam khraengsak moe, nang zithaih tawnh han ai ah kaicae ih palungthin hae nam taksak loe? Na tamnanawk hoi nang ih qawktoep acaengnawk khaeah amlaem let ah.
Why, O Jehovah, hast thou made us to err from thy ways, hast hardened our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants' sake, the tribes of thine inheritance.
18 Nangmah ih kaminawk mah na hmuenciim to nawnetta thungah toep o; vaihi loe ka misanawk mah na hmuenciim to atit o boeh.
Thy holy people have possessed [it] but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary.
19 Kaicae loe canghnii hoi boeh ni nang ih qawk ah ka oh o; toe na uk vai ai ih kami baktiah nang ohsak; nihcae to na hmin hoi kawk ai ih kami baktiah na ohsak.
We have become [like those] over whom thou never barest rule, those not called by thy name.
