Isaiah 42
1 Ka sal he ne. Anih he ka moem tih kamah loh ka coelh. Ka hinglu loh a moeithen tih anih soah ka Mueihla ka khueh dongah namtom ham tiktamnah a khuen pah ni.
Behold, my seruaunt: I will stay vpon him: mine elect, in whom my soule deliteth: I haue put my Spirit vpon him: he shall bring forth iudgement to the Gentiles.
2 Anih tah pang pawt vetih huel uh bal mahpawh. A ol te tollong ah ya uh mahpawh.
He shall not crie, nor lift vp, nor cause his voice to be heard in the streete.
3 Capu aka paep te khaem pawt vetih thut aka nap khaw thih mahpawh. Oltak neh tiktamnah te a thoeng sak.
A bruised reede shall hee not breake, and the smoking flaxe shall he not quench: he shall bring foorth iudgement in trueth.
4 Diklai ah tiktamnah a khueh duela muei pawt vetih paep mahpawh. A olkhueng te khaw khonglong tuiva loh a ngaiuep uh ni.
He shall not faile nor be discouraged till he haue set iudgement in the earth: and the yles shall waite for his lawe.
5 Vaan aka suen tih aka dih, diklai aka nulh tih a cadil cahma, a pilnam taengah hiil aka pae, a sokah aka pongpa rhoek taengah mueihla aka pae Pathen Yahovah loh,
Thus sayeth God the Lord (he that created the heauens and spred them abroad: he that stretched foorth the earth, and the buddes thereof: he that giueth breath vnto the people vpon it, and spirit to them that walke therein)
6 “Kai Yahovah loh nang te duengnah khuila kang khue coeng. Na kut te kan moem vetih nang kang kueinah ni. Nang te pilnam kah patai la, namtom kah khosae la kang khueh ni.
I the Lord haue called thee in righteousnesse, and will hold thine hand, and I will keepe thee, and giue thee for a couenant of the people, and for a light of the Gentiles,
7 Mikdael te mik tueng sak ham, hlongkhoh te rhomhmop lamloh, hmaisuep kah khosa rhoek te thong im lamloh doek ham ni.
That thou maist open the eyes of the blind, and bring out the prisoners from the prison: and them that sitte in darkenesse, out of the prison house.
8 Kai Yahovah loh ka ming neh ka thangpomnah he a tloe taengla, ka koehnah te mueidaep rhoek taengla ka pae mahpawh.
I am the Lord, this is my Name, and my glory wil I not giue to another, neither my praise to grauen images.
9 Lamhma te ha thoeng coeng tih a thai la ka puen coeng he. A poe hlan ah nangmih kan yaak sak,” a ti.
Beholde, the former thinges are come to passe, and newe things doe I declare: before they come foorth, I tell you of them.
10 Diklai khobawt lamloh tuitunli la aka suntla rhoek, sanglak boeih neh te kah khosa rhoek loh amah koehnah laa thai te BOEIPA taengah hlai uh lah.
Sing vnto the Lord a newe song, and his praise from the ende of the earth: yee that goe downe to the sea, and all that is therein: the yles and the inhabitants thereof.
11 Khosoek neh khopuei, vangca loh huel uh saeh. Kedar khosa rhoek te tamhoe uh saeh lamtah Sela khosa rhoek te tlang som lamloh he uh saeh.
Let the wildernesse and the cities thereof lift vp their voyce, the townes that Kedar doeth inhabite: let the inhabitants of the rocks sing: let them shoute from the toppe of the mountaines.
12 Thangpomnah te BOEIPA taengah tloeng uh saeh, amah koehnah te sanglak ah thui uh saeh.
Let them giue glorie vnto the Lord, and declare his praise in the ylands.
13 BOEIPA tah hlangrhalh la thoeng tih caemtloek hlang la haenghang coeng. A thatlainah neh yuhui vetih a kawk vaengah a thunkha rhoek te a poe ni.
The Lord shall go forth as a gyant: he shall stirre vp his courage like a man of warre: he shall shout and crie, and shall preuaile against his enemies.
14 Kumhal ham ka ngam coeng tih hil ka phah. Cacun bangla ka thiim uh tih, ka ha-awt la ka kii vaengah luei ka hlak.
I haue a long time holden my peace: I haue beene still and refrained my selfe: nowe will I crie like a trauailing woman: I will destroy and deuoure at once.
15 Tlang som rhoek te ka khah vetih a baelhing khaw boeih ka rhae ni. Tuiva te sanglak la ka khueh vetih tuibap khaw ka haang sak ni.
I will make waste mountaines, and hilles, and drie vp all their herbes, and I will make the floods ylands, and I will drie vp the pooles.
16 Mikdael rhoek te a ming noek pawh longpuei ah ka pongpa puei ni. A ming uh pawh a hawn ah amih te a hoihaeng ni. Khohmuep khaw amih mikhmuh ah khosae la, caehthae khaw tlangkol la ka khueh ni. Hekah olka he ka rhoih vetih amih te ka hnoo mahpawh.
And I will bring the blinde by a way, that they knewe not, and lead them by paths that they haue not knowen: I will make darkenesse light before them, and crooked thinges straight. These thinges will I doe vnto them, and not forsake them.
17 Mueithuk dongah aka pangtung tih na mueihloe te, “Mamih kah pathen ni,” aka ti rhoek khaw a hnuk la balkhong uh vetih yahpohnah neh yah a bai uh ni.
They shall be turned backe: they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in grauen images, and say to the molten images, Yee are our gods.
18 Hnapang rhoek loh ya uh. Mikdael rhoek loh paelki saeh lamtah hmu uh van saeh.
Heare, ye deafe: and ye blinde, regarde, that ye may see.
19 Ka sal phoeiah atah mikdael te unim? Hnapang khaw ka puencawn la ka tueih te unim? Paya bangla aka thuung mikdael neh BOEIPA kah sal bangla mikdael khaw unim?
Who is blinde but my seruaunt? or deafe as my messenger, that I sent? who is blind as the perfit, and blinde as the Lordes seruant?
20 Na hmuh khaw muep na hmuh uh dae na ngaithuen uh moenih, hna a khui akhaw a yaak moenih.
Seeing many things, but thou keepest them not? opening the eares, but he heareth not?
21 BOEIPA loh amah kah duengnah dongah hmae tih olkhueng a pomsang nen ni amah athangpom uh.
The Lord is willing for his righteousnesse sake that he may magnifie the Lawe, and exalt it.
22 Pilnam he a poelyoe tih a rheth coeng. Amih boeih te a khui ah khoep a tlaeng tih thong im ah a thuh uh. Te vaengah maeh la poeh tih hlang loh a muk te huul uh pawh. Te vaengah mael laeh aka ti khaw om pawh.
But this people is robbed and spoiled, and shalbe all snared in dungeons, and they shalbe hid in prison houses: they shall be for a pray, and none shall deliuer: a spoile, and none shall say, Restore.
23 Nangmih ah unim he hna a kaeng vetih, a hnatung vetih a hnuk ah aka hnatang eh?
Who among you shall hearken to this, and take heede, and heare for afterwardes?
24 Jakob te muk la muk ham, Israel te poelyoe ham aka pae te unim? A longpuei ah pongpa ham ng'huem uh pawt tih a olkhueng te n'hnatun uh pawt dongah, BOEIPA amah taengah n'tholh uh moenih a?
Who gaue Iaakob for a spoyle, and Israel to the robbers? Did not ye Lord, because we haue sinned against him? for they woulde not walke in his waies, neither be obedient vnto his Lawe.
25 Te dongah anih te a kosi thintoek neh a hawk thil tih caem kah tlungalnah neh a kaepvai ah a hlawp coeng. Tedae ming pawt tih a taeng a dom pah te khaw a lungbuei ah dueh pawh.
Therefore hee hath powred vpon him his fierce wrath, and the strength of battell: and it set him on fire round about, and he knewe not, and it burned him vp, yet he considered not.
