< Isaiah 35 >

1 Khosoek neh rhamrhae loh ngaingaih bitni. kolken khaw omngaih vetih rhaimoei bangla muem ni.
The wilderness and the dry land will be glad. The desert will rejoice and blossom like a rose.
2 Phuelh rhoe phuelh vetih omngaih ni. Lebanon kah omngaihnah neh thangpomnah a tamhoe puei ni. Karmel kah rhuepomnah a taengah a paek vetih Sharon loh, BOEIPA kah a thangpomnah neh mamih Pathen kah a rhuepomnah khaw a hmuh uh ni.
It will blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing. Lebanon’s glory will be given to it, the excellence of Carmel and Sharon. They will see Yahweh’s glory, the excellence of our God.
3 Kut kha te talong uh lamtah khuklu aka tangdawt khaw duel uh.
Strengthen the weak hands, and make the feeble knees firm.
4 Lungbuei aka loe te, “Namning sak, rhih boeh, nangmih kah Pathen tah phulohnah neh ha pawk pawn ni ke. Pathen amah neh a tiing la ha pawk vetih nangmih n'khang ni.
Tell those who have a fearful heart, “Be strong! Don’t be afraid! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, God’s retribution. He will come and save you.
5 Te vaengah mikdael khaw a mik tueng vetih hnapang rhoek khaw a hna khui ni.
Then the eyes of the blind will be opened, and the ears of the deaf will be unstopped.
6 Rhangrhaeh khokhaem bangla a poe vetih olmueh khaw a ol neh tamhoe ni. Khosoek ah tui phuet vetih kolken ah soklong la om ni.
Then the lame man will leap like a deer, and the tongue of the mute will sing; for waters will break out in the wilderness, and streams in the desert.
7 Unghae te tuibap la, tuihang te tuisih tui la poeh ni. Pongui tolkhoeng kah a kolhmuen ah capu neh talik yueng la sulrham poe ni.
The burning sand will become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water. Grass with reeds and rushes will be in the habitation of jackals, where they lay.
8 Te vaengah longpuei pahoi om vetih longpuei te khaw Longpuei Cim la a khue ni. Hlang rhalawt tah te lam te cet mahpawh. Tedae amah te longpuei la a pongpa vaengah tah aka ang pataeng khohmang uh mahpawh.
A highway will be there, a road, and it will be called “The Holy Way”. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it will be for those who walk in the Way. Wicked fools shall not go there.
9 Sathueng khaw om mahpawh, mulhing dingca khaw pongpa mahpawh. A muei khaw hmu voel pawt vetih a tlan rhoek ni a pongpa pawn eh.
No lion will be there, nor will any ravenous animal go up on it. They will not be found there; but the redeemed will walk there.
10 BOEIPA kah a lat rhoek tah mael uh vetih tamlung neh a lu dongkah kumhal kohoenah neh Zion la kun uh ni. Omngaihnah neh kohoenah loh a kae vetih kothae neh hueinah tah rhaelrham ni.
Then Yahweh’s ransomed ones will return, and come with singing to Zion; and everlasting joy will be on their heads. They will obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.”
