< Isaiah 63 >
1 Bozrah himbai a thimduk neh Edom lamkah aka pawk he nim? A pueinak nen mah a hiin coeng. Amah kah thadueng cungkuem neh aka khuum mai te. Khang khungdaeng ham khaw kamah long ni duengnah neh ka thui.
Who is this who comes from Edom, with blood-red robes from Bozrah? he whose clothing is fair, stepping with pride in his great strength? I whose glory is in the right, strong for salvation.
2 Balae tih na pueinak te a thim? Na himbai khaw misur rhom khuiah a nook bangla.
Why is your clothing red, and why are your robes like those of one who is crushing the grapes?
3 Sum khaw kamah bueng long ni ka huelh. Pilnam pakhat khaw kai taengah nuen pawh. Ka thintoek ah amih a neet tih ka kosi neh amih ka taelh. A thii loh ka himbai a haeh tih ka hnicu he a pum la ka nok.
I have been crushing the grapes by myself, and of the peoples there was no man with me: in my wrath and in my passion, they were crushed under my feet; and my robes are marked with their life-blood, and all my clothing is red.
4 Phulohnah hnin ham te ka lungbuei ah hing cakhaw kai ham tlannah kum ha pai coeng.
For the day of punishment is in my heart, and the year for the payment of the price for my people has come.
5 Ka paelki van akhaw aka bom om pawh. Ka pong bal akhaw aka talong om pawh. Ka bantha loh kamah ham a khang tih ka kosi loh amah la kai n'duel.
And I saw that there was no helper, and I was wondering that no one gave them support: so my arm did the work of salvation, and my wrath was my support.
6 Ka thintoek ah pilnam ka suntlae tih ka kosi neh amih ka rhuihmil sak. Amih thii te diklai dongah ka tlak sak.
And in my passion the peoples were crushed under my feet, and broken in my wrath, and I put down their strength to the earth.
7 BOEIPA loh mamih ham boeih a thuung van bangla BOEIPA kah sitlohnah neh BOEIPA koehnah ni ka thui eh. Amih kah haidamnah bangla amah kah sitlohnah cangpai neh Israel imkhui te thennah neh muep a thuung.
I will give news of the mercies of the Lord, and his great acts, even all the things the Lord has done for us, in his great grace to the house of Israel; even all he has done for us in his unnumbered mercies.
8 “Amih ka pilnam he tah camoe khaw rhilat mahpawh,” a ti coeng dongah BOEIPA tah amih aka khang la om coeng.
For he said, Truly they are my people, children who will not be false: so he was their saviour out of all their trouble.
9 Amih kah citcai boeih dongah BOEIPAamah ham khaw khobing sut. A mikhmuh kah puencawn loh amih te a khang. A lungnah neh a thinphatnah dongah amih te a tlan. Khosuen lamkah hnin takuem amih te a poeh tih amih te a ludoeng.
It was no sent one or angel, but he himself who was their saviour: in his love and in his pity he took up their cause, and he took them in his arms, caring for them all through the years.
10 Tedae amih loh amah kah Mueihla cim te a koek tih kothae a paekuh. Te dongah amih taengla mael tih thunkha bangla amih te amah loh a vathoh thil.
But they went against him, causing grief to his holy spirit: so he was turned against them, and made war on them.
11 Khosuen tue kah a pilnam Moses a thoelh. Amih te a boiva aka dawn neh tuipuei lamloh aka khuen te melae? A kotak ah a Mueihla Cim te aka khueh te melae?
Then the early days came to their minds, the days of Moses his servant: and they said, Where is he who made the keeper of his flock come up from the sea? where is he who put his holy spirit among them,
12 Amah kah boeimang bantha te Moses bantang ah aka pongpa sak, amah kah kumhal ming dang sak ham amih mikhmuh lamkah tui aka phih.
He who made the arm of his glory go at the right hand of Moses, by whom the waters were parted before them, to make himself an eternal name;
13 Amih te khosoek ah marhang bangla tuidung longah a mawt dae paloe uh pawh.
He who made them go through the deep waters, like a horse in the waste land?
14 Kolbawn la aka suntla rhamsa bangla BOEIPA Mueihla loh anih a duem sak. Boeimang ming te namah hut la khueh ham ni na pilnam khaw na hmaithawn tangloeng.
Like the cattle which go down into the valley, they went without falling, the spirit of the Lord guiding them: so you went before your people, to make yourself a great name.
15 Vaan lamloh paelki lamtah na imhmuen cim lamloh hmuh lah. Na boeimang neh na thatlainah na thayung thamal melae? Na ko a hah neh na haidamnah he kai taengah thiim uh.
Let your eyes be looking down from heaven, from your holy and beautiful house: where is your deep feeling, the working of your power? do not keep back the moving of your pity and your mercies:
16 Kaimih napa tah namah pai ni. Abraham loh kaimih m'ming moenih. Israel long khaw kaimih m'hmat moenih. Kaimih napa he Yahovah namah ni. Khosuen lamloh kaimih aka tlan khaw namah ming ni.
For you are our father, though Abraham has no knowledge of us, and Israel gives no thought to us: you, O Lord, are our father; from the earliest days you have taken up our cause.
17 BOEIPA aw balae tih na longpuei lamloh kaimih kho nan hmang sak. Namah hinyahnah lamloh kaimih lungbuei na hit sak. Na rho koca na sal rhoek ham ha mael laeh.
O Lord, why do you send us wandering from your ways, making our hearts hard, so that we have no fear of you? Come back, because of your servants, the tribes of your heritage.
18 Namah kah pilnam cim kolkalh a pang uh vaengah kaimih kah rhal rhoek loh na rhokso te a suntlae uh.
Why have evil men gone over your holy place, so that it has been crushed under the feet of our haters?
19 Khosuen lamkah ka om uh coeng dae amih soah na taemrhai pawt dongah amih taengah na ming te khue van pawh. Vaan ke na phen koinih na mikhmuh ah na suntlak sak vetih tlang rhoek khaw moelh uh sue.
We have become as those who were never ruled by you, on whom your name was not named.
