< Isaiah 61 >
1 Ka Boeipa Yahovah kah Mueihla tah kai soah om. Kodo taengah olthangthen phong pah ham BOEIPA loh kai n'koelh. Lungbuei aka paep rhoek te poi pah ham, a sol rhoek ham te sayalhnah hoe pah ham, a khih rhoek te hlamnah ham,
The Lord GOD’s Spirit is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and release to those who are bound,
2 BOEIPA kah kolonah kum neh mamih Pathen kah phulohnah khohnin hoe pah ham, rhahdoe cangpoem boeih te hloep ham,
to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favour and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn,
3 Zion kah rhahdoe cangpoem te dueh pah ham, hmaiphu yueng la lukhuem, nguekcoinah yueng la omngaihnah situi, nukyum mueihla yueng la koehnah himbai te amih taengah paek ham ni kai n'tueih. Amih te cam hamla BOEIPA kah thingling tah duengnah thingnu la a khue uh ni.
to provide for those who mourn in Zion, to give to them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he may be glorified.
4 Khosuen imrhong te koep a sak uh vetih hnukbuet kah aka pong te a thoh uh ni. Kholing khopuei cadilcahma phoeikah cadilcahma duela aka pong te khaw koep a tlaih uh ni.
They will rebuild the old ruins. They will raise up the former devastated places. They will repair the ruined cities that have been devastated for many generations.
5 Hlanglak rhoek te pai uh vetih nangmih kah boiva te a luem puei uh ni. Kholong ca rhoek te nang kah lopho neh dumpho la om uh ni.
Strangers will stand and feed your flocks. Foreigners will work your fields and your vineyards.
6 Nangmih tah BOEIPA kah khosoih la n'khue uh vetih, nang te mamih Pathen ham aka thotat la a thui ni. Namtom kah thadueng te nang n'cah vetih amih kah thangpomnah neh nang n'thui ni.
But you will be called the LORD’s priests. Men will call you the servants of our God. You will eat the wealth of the nations. You will boast in their glory.
7 Nangmih kah yahpohnah neh mingthae yueng te a rhaep la a kah hamsum neh tamhoe uh ni. A khohmuen te rhaepnit la a pang uh tangloeng vetih amih ham kumhal kohoenah om ni.
Instead of your shame you will have double. Instead of dishonour, they will rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they will possess double. Everlasting joy will be to them.
8 Kai Yahovah long tah tiktamnah he ka lungnah tih dumlai dongkah huencannah he ka hmuhuet. Te dongah amih kah thaphu te oltak la ka paek vetih amih taengah kumhal paipi te ka saii ni.
“For I, the LORD, love justice. I hate robbery and iniquity. I will give them their reward in truth and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 A tiingan te namtom lakli ah, a cadil te pilnam lakli ah a ming ni. Amih aka hmuh boeih loh amih te BOEIPA kah yoethen a paek tiingan tila a hmat uh ni.
Their offspring will be known amongst the nations, and their offspring amongst the peoples. All who see them will acknowledge them, that they are the offspring which the LORD has blessed.”
10 BOEIPA dongah ngaingaih la ka ngaingaih tih ka hinglu khaw ka Pathen dongah omngaih. Daemnah himbai neh duengnah hnikul te kai m'bai sak. Yulokung bangla kai n'thingcam tih lukhuem neh n'khosoih sak tih a hnopai aka oi uh langa bangla n'khueh.
I will greatly rejoice in the LORD! My soul will be joyful in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation. He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11 Diklai bangla a dawn cawt tih dum bangla a ballung khaw poe. Ka Boeipa Yahovah tangloeng ni duengnah a poe sak vetih namtom boeih kah hmaiah koehnah khaw a om pai eh.
For as the earth produces its bud, and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring up, so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring up before all the nations.
