< 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 coming in from Edom With bright-red garments, from Bozrah? This made splendid in his raiment, Marching on in the greatness of his strength? I, speaking in righteousness, Mighty to save.
2 Balae tih na pueinak te a thim? Na himbai khaw misur rhom khuiah a nook bangla.
Wherefore is there red, on thy raiment, —And thy garments as of one treading in a wine-trough?
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.
A winepress, have I trodden, alone, And of the peoples, there was no man with me. So I trod them down in mine anger, And trampled upon them, in mine indignation, —And their life-blood besprinkled my garments, And all mine apparel, I defiled;
4 Phulohnah hnin ham te ka lungbuei ah hing cakhaw kai ham tlannah kum ha pai coeng.
For, a day of avenging, was in my heart, And the year of my redeemed, had 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.
Therefore looked I around, and there was none to help, —And I was astonished that there was none to uphold, —So, mine own arm brought me salvation, And mine indignation, the same upheld me;
6 Ka thintoek ah pilnam ka suntlae tih ka kosi neh amih ka rhuihmil sak. Amih thii te diklai dongah ka tlak sak.
Then trod I down peoples in mine anger, And make them drunk with mine indignation, And brought down to the earth their life-blood.
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.
The lovingkindness of Yahweh, will I recall the praises of Yahweh, According to all that Yahweh hath bestowed upon us, —Even the abundance of goodness to the house of Israel, Which he bestowed upon them—According to his compassions and According to the abundance of his lovingkindness.
8 “Amih ka pilnam he tah camoe khaw rhilat mahpawh,” a ti coeng dongah BOEIPA tah amih aka khang la om coeng.
Therefore he said—Surely my people, they are, Sons, they will not act falsely! So he became their saviour.
9 Amih kah citcai boeih dongah BOEIPA amah 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.
In all their affliction, he, was afflicted And the messenger of his presence saved them, In his love and in his pity, he, redeemed them, —And then lifted them up and carried them all the days of the age-past time.
10 Tedae amih loh amah kah Mueihla cim te a koek tih kothae a paek uh. Te dongah amih taengla mael tih thunkha bangla amih te amah loh a vathoh thil.
But, they, rebelled, and grieved his Holy Spirit, —And so he turned against them as an enemy, he himself, fought against 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 were recalled the days of the age-past time Moses—his people: —Where is he that led them up out of the sea with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he that put within him his Holy Spirit?
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.
That caused to go at the right hand of Moses his own majestic arm, —Cleaving the waters from before them, To make himself an age-abiding name:
13 Amih te khosoek ah marhang bangla tuidung longah a mawt dae paloe uh pawh.
Causing them to go through the roaring deeps, —Like a horse through the wilderness, That they should not stumble?
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.
As a beast, into the valley, goeth down, The Spirit of Yahweh, causeth him to rest, So, didst thou lead thy people, To make thyself a majestic 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.
Look thou down, out of the heavens and see, Out of the high abode of thy holiness and of thy majesty, —Where are thy jealousy, and thy mighty deeds? The resounding of thy yearning affection, and thy compassions towards me, are they restrained?
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, thou, art our father, Though, Abraham, knew us not, And Israel could not acknowledge us, —Thou, O Yahweh, art our father, Our Redeemer from the Age-past time, is thy name.
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.
Wherefore shouldst thou suffer us to wander O Yahweh, from thy ways? Wherefore shouldst thou let us harden our heart past revering thee? Return thou for the sake of Thy servants, The tribes thou thyself hast inherited.
18 Namah kah pilnam cim kolkalh a pang uh vaengah kaimih kah rhal rhoek loh na rhokso te a suntlae uh.
For a short time only, did thy holy people hold possession, —Our adversaries, trod down thy sanctuary!
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 like those Over whom from age-past times, thou hast not ruled, Who have never been called by thy name!
