Isaiah 62

1 Zion ham ka ngam pawt vetih, Jerusalem ham khaw a duengnah loh, kho aa bangla ha thoeng. Te dongah anih kah khangnah loh, hmaithoi bangla a dom duela ka mong mahpawh.

For Zion’s sake I am not silent, And for Jerusalem’s sake I do not rest, Until her righteousness goes out as brightness, And her salvation burns as a torch.

2 Na duengnah te namtom hlang loh a hmuh uh vetih, manghai boeih loh nang kah thangpomnah a hmuh uh vaengah, BOEIPA ka kah a phoei ming thai neh nang te n'khue ni.

And nations have seen your righteousness, And all kings your glory, And He is giving a new name to you, That the mouth of YHWH defines.

3 Boeimang rhuisam tah BOEIPA kut dongah, mangpa sammuei khaw na Pathen kah kut dongah ni a. om eh.

And you have been a crown of beauty in the hand of YHWH, And a turban of royalty in the hand of your God,

4 Nang te tueihno la n'khue voel pawt vetih, na khohmuen te khopong ti voel mahpawh. Nang te pumting nu la, na khohmuen rhukom la ng'khue ni. BOEIPA tah, nang dongah naep vetih, na khohmuen khaw rhukom la om ni.

It is not said of you anymore, “Forsaken!” And of your land it is not said anymore, “Desolate,” For to you is cried, “My delight [is] in her,” And to your land, “Married,” For YHWH has delighted in you, And your land is married.

5 Tongpang loh oila a yuunah bangla, na ca rhoek loh nang n'yuunah ni. Te vaengah vasa nu soah yulo pa kah a omthennah bangla na Pathen khaw nang soah ngaingaih ni.

For a young man marries a virgin, Your builders marry you, With the joy of a bridegroom over a bride, Your God rejoices over you.

6 Jerusalem nang kah vongtung soah ka hip coeng. Khothaih khing, khoyin khing, aka tawt rhoek khaw ngam uh taitu mahpawh. BOEIPA aka thoelh nangmih ham khaw, dingsueknah om pawh.

“On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen, All the day and all the night, Continually, they are not silent.” O you remembering YHWH, do not keep silence for yourselves,

7 Jerusalem te a cikngae sak tih, diklai kah koehnah la a khueh duela, anih ham dingsueknah pae boeh.

And do not give silence to Him, Until He establishes, and until He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

8 BOEIPA loh a bantang kut neh, a sarhi ban neh a toemngam coeng. Na cangpai te na thunkha kah a caak la, koep ka pae vetih na kohnue thil misur thai te kholong ca rhoek loh o lah ve.

YHWH has sworn by His right hand, Even by the arm of His strength: “I do not give your grain anymore [as] food for your enemies, Nor do sons of a stranger drink your new wine, For which you have labored.

9 Aka coi rhoek loh a caak uh vetih, BOEIPA te a thangthen uh ni. Aka coi rhoek long khaw, kamah kah hmuencim vongup ah a ok uh ni.

For those gathering it eat it, and have praised YHWH, And those collecting it drink it in My holy courts.”

10 Vongka rhoek paan rhoe paan uh laeh. Pilnam kah longpuei te rhoekbah uh. Picai uh, picai uh, longpuei kah lungto te dae uh laeh. Pilnam ham rholik thoh uh laeh.

Pass on, pass on through the gates, Prepare the way of the people, Raise up, raise up the highway, clear it from stones, Lift up an ensign over the peoples.

11 BOEIPA loh diklai khobawt duela a yaak coeng ke. Zion nu te thui pah. Nang kah daemnah ha pawk coeng ke. A thapang khaw amah neh a thaphu neh a mikhmuh ah om coeng ke.

Behold, YHWH has proclaimed to the end of the earth: “Say to the daughter of Zion, Behold, your salvation has come, Behold, His hire [is] with Him, And His wage before Him.”

12 Amih te BOEIPA kah a tlan pilnam cim la a khue uh ni. Nang te khaw a toem tih a hnoo voel pawh khopuei a ti ni.

And they have cried to them, “The People of the Holy One! The Redeemed of YHWH!” Indeed, to you is called, “The sought out one, a city not forsaken!”
