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 from Edom, from the town of Bozrah with clothes stained crimson? Who is this wearing robes of splendor, leaning forward in his great strength as he marches? It is me, the one who always speaks goodness and truth, the one who has the power to save.
2 Balae tih na pueinak te a thim? Na himbai khaw misur rhom khuiah a nook bangla.
Why are your clothes red, like you've been treading grapes in a winepress?
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.
I've been treading the winepress by myself; from the nations around no one came to help me. So in my anger I trod them down as if they were grapes, in my fury I trampled them. It's their blood that has stained my clothes.
4 Phulohnah hnin ham te ka lungbuei ah hing cakhaw kai ham tlannah kum ha pai coeng.
For I decided this was the day of my vengeance; the year of my redemption has 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.
I looked around, but no one came to help; I was shocked that there was no one to assist me. So I saved them through my own strength alone, and my own anger kept me going.
6 Ka thintoek ah pilnam ka suntlae tih ka kosi neh amih ka rhuihmil sak. Amih thii te diklai dongah ka tlak sak.
I trampled down the nations in my anger; in my fury I made them drunk, and spilled their blood upon the ground.
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.
I want to tell everyone about the Lord's trustworthy love. I will praise the Lord for everything he's done for us—all the good things he has done for the descendants of Israel because of his kindness and his infinite trustworthy love.
8 “Amih ka pilnam he tah camoe khaw rhilat mahpawh,” a ti coeng dongah BOEIPA tah amih aka khang la om coeng.
He said, “Aren't they my people, children who wouldn't lie to me?” So he became their Savior.
9 Amih kah citcai boeih dongahBOEIPAamah 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.
He suffered with them in all their suffering, and the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and kindness he redeemed them. He picked them up and carried them all throughout those years long ago.
10 Tedae amih loh amah kah Mueihla cim te a koek tih kothae a paekuh. Te dongah amih taengla mael tih thunkha bangla amih te amah loh a vathoh thil.
But they rebelled against him, and caused his Holy Spirit grief, so to them he became like an enemy and he 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 they thought back to the days of old when Moses led his people out of Egypt. They shouted out, “Where is the one who took Israel through the sea, along with the shepherds of his flock? Where is the one who placed his Holy Spirit among his people?
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.
Where is the one who lifted Moses' right hand, and who used his amazing power to divided the sea in front of them, giving him such a wonderful, enduring reputation?
13 Amih te khosoek ah marhang bangla tuidung longah a mawt dae paloe uh pawh.
Where is the one who led them through the depths of the sea?” They were like a horse running through the desert, they didn't 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.
Like cattle descending into a valley, the Lord's Spirit gave them rest. This is how you led your people, earning a glorious reputation for yourself.
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.
Lord, look down on us from heaven! Watch from your high home, in your holiness and glory! Where is your enthusiasm and power? You're not showing me your feelings of sympathy and kindness!
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.
But you are still our Father, even though Abraham wouldn't know us and Israel wouldn't acknowledge us. You, Lord, are our Father; you have always been called our Redeemer from long ago.
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.
Lord, why do you make us wander from your ways, and make us stubborn so we don't respect you? Come back to us for the sake of your servants, the tribes that belong to you.
18 Namah kah pilnam cim kolkalh a pang uh vaengah kaimih kah rhal rhoek loh na rhokso te a suntlae uh.
Your Temple belonged to us for a little while, but then our enemies invaded and destroyed it.
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 were yours from ancient times, but we've ended up like people you've never ruled, never identified as yours.
