Isaiah 55
1 Anunae tui aka hal boeih loh tui taengla cet lah. A taengah tangka aka om pawt long khaw paan lah. Lai lamtah ca van. Cet lamtah misur neh suktui te tangka nen pawt akhaw a phu nen pawt akhaw lai lah.
Ho, everyone who thirsts, come ye to the waters. And he who has no money, come ye, buy, and eat. Yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
2 Buh pawt mai ah tangka na thuek thil te ba ham nim? Na thaphu khaw na daeng a cungnah hae moenih. Kamah taengkah he hnatun, hnatun lamtah a then te ca uh. Na hinglu kah maehhloi nen khaw a pang a dok bitni.
Why do ye spend money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Hearken diligently to me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
3 Na hna duen lamtah kai taengah pongpa lah. Ya van lamtah na hinglu te hing van saeh. David kah sitlohnah aka tangnah nangmih rhoek taengah kumhal paipi ka saii ni.
Incline your ear, and come to me. Hear, and your soul shall live. And I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the faithful holy things of David.
4 Anih te namtu kah laipai rhaengsang neh namtu rhoek aka uen la ka khueh coeng he.
Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander to the peoples.
5 Namtom na ming pawt loh ng'khue vetih namtom na ming pawt khaw nang taengla ha yong uh pawn ni ke. BOEIPA na Pathen neh Israel kah a cim loh nang n'cam coeng.
Behold, thou shall call a nation that thou do not know. And a nation that does not know thee shall run to thee because of Jehovah thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for he has glorified thee.
6 Amah hmuh ham koi vaengah BOEIPA toem uh. A yoei la a om vaengah amah te khue uh.
Seek ye Jehovah while he may be found. Call ye upon him while he is near.
7 Halang loh amah khosing, boethae hlang loh a kopoek te hnoo saeh lamtah BOEIPA taengla mael saeh. Mamih kah Pathen taengah tah khodawkngai ham a puh sak vetih, anih te a haidam bitni.
Let the wicked man forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts. And let him return to Jehovah, and he will have mercy upon him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8 Ka kopoek he nangmih kopoek moenih, na khosing te ka khosing moenih. BOEIPA olphong ni.
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways, says Jehovah.
9 Vaan ke diklai lakah sang tih ka khosing khaw na khosing lakah sang tangloeng. Ka kopoek khaw nangmih kopoek lakah dung.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10 Vaan lamkah khonal neh vuelsong a suntlak phoeiah pahoi a mael moenih. Diklai te a sulpuem sak tih a cun phoeiah sul a duei sak. Te dongah lo aka tawn ham cangti neh caak ham buh a paek.
For as the rain comes down and the snow from heaven, and returns not there, but waters the earth, and makes it bring forth and bud, and gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater,
11 Ka ol aka om tangtae ka ka lamkah aka thoeng he kai taengah kuttling la ha mael mahpawh. Ka ngaih te a saii vetih ka tueih a thaihtak sak ni.
so shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth. It shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please. And it shall prosper in the thing to which I sent it.
12 Kohoenah neh na hlah uh vetih ngaimongnah neh n'khuen bitni. Tlang neh som te na mikhmuh ah tamlung neh rhong uh ni. Khohmuen kah thing boeih khaw kut a paeng uh ni.
For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace. The mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the fields shall clap their hands.
13 Tangtii yueng la hmaical khawk ding vetih sakoeih hling yueng la cuihal thing khawk ding ni. BOEIPA ham kumhal miknoek la a ming om vetih phae voel mahpawh.
Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree. And it shall be to Jehovah for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
