Isaiah 35

1 Khosoek neh rhamrhae loh ngaingaih bitni. kolken khaw omngaih vetih rhaimoei bangla muem ni.

Be glad, you thirsty desert: let the wilderness exult, and flower as the lily.

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.

And the desert places of Jordan shall blossom and rejoice; the glory of Libanus has been given to it, and the honour of Carmel; and my people shall see the glory of the Lord, and the majesty of God.

3 Kut kha te talong uh lamtah khuklu aka tangdawt khaw duel uh.

Be strong, you relaxed hands and palsied knees.

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.

Comfort one another, you faint-hearted; be strong, fear not; behold, our God renders judgement, and he will render [it]; he will come and save us.

5 Te vaengah mikdael khaw a mik tueng vetih hnapang rhoek khaw a hna khui ni.

Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall hear.

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 shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the stammerers shall speak plainly; for water has burst forth in the desert, and a channel [of water] in a thirsty land.

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.

And the dry land shall become pools, and a fountain of water shall [be poured] into the thirsty land; there shall there be a joy of birds, ready habitations and marshes.

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.

There shall be there a pure way, and it shall be called a holy way; and there shall not pass by there any unclean person, neither shall there be there an unclean way; but the dispersed shall walk on it, and they shall not go astray.

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.

And there shall be no lion there, neither shall any evil beast go up upon it, nor at all be found there; but the redeemed and gathered on the Lord's behalf, shall walk in it,

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.

and shall return, and come to Sion with joy, and everlasting joy [shall be] over their head; for on their head [shall be] praise and exultation, and joy shall take possession of them: sorrow and pain, and groaning have fled away.
