Isaiah 51
1 Pakai holla, huhdohna chang dinga kinem jousen, kasei hi ngaijuvin! Songpia konna kitan doh’a na hiuvin chule gomtong’a konna kilaidoh’a na hiu chu ngaitouvin.
"Listen to me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek the LORD: look to the rock you were cut from, and to the hold of the pit you were dug from.
2 Na pului’u Abraham le na nampiu hung penna nu Sarah chu ngaitouvin. Ka kou petna chu Abraham achangseh bou ahin, hinla ama phatthei kaboh’in, nam lentah ahung hitai.
Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who bore you; for when he was but one I called him, and I blessed him, and made him many.
3 Pakaiyin Israel alhamon kit ding, chule amah thah nau alainat pi’e. Nelphai jong chu Eden banga nom ding, gamthip gamgo lai jong chu Pakai honlei bang ding ahi. Kipana le thanopna chuche muna kimun tin, Thangvahna laho chu gingdoh ding ahi.
For the LORD has comforted Zion; he has comforted all her waste places, and has made her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be found in it, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
4 Ka mite, kasei ngai’uvin. Israel’in ngai hen. Ajeh chu ka danthu kilhangsap ding, chule ka thutan themna chu chitin-namtin lah’a kilang ding ahi.
"Attend to me, my people; and give ear to me, my nation: for a law shall go forth from me, and I will establish my justice for a light of the peoples.
5 Ka khotona le thutan themna hung lhung loi ding, Ka huhhingna hi hunga ahitai. Ka bantha hattah hin chitin-namtin chunga thutan themna ahin pohlut ding ahi. Gam latah gam’a hon ei hinvet dingu chule kinem tah’a ka bantha hatna chu kinem ding ahiuve.
My righteousness is near, my salvation is gone forth, and my arms shall judge the peoples; the islands shall wait for me, and on my arm shall they trust.
6 Dah in van khu veuvin, chule noi lam leiset hin vesuh un. Ajeh chu van hi meikhu tobang ahung mang thah ding, chule leiset hi ponsil hal tobanga mang thah ding ahi. Leiset mite jong thousi tobanga thi ding ahiuvin, hinla ka huhhingna hi a’itih’a umjing ding ahi. Ka chonphatna dan chu akichaitih umlou ding ahi.
Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look on the earth beneath; for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment; and those who dwell in it shall die in the same way: but my salvation shall be forever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.
7 Kasei ngaijun, adihlou’a konna adih hea nangho, adan thu lunga tuhdet hon, mihon nahin taitom diu tija hih un. Ama hon na jumso dingu jong kicha hih beh un.
"Listen to me, you who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; do not fear the reproach of men, neither be dismayed at their insults.
8 Ajeh iham itileh ngetnin pon anehset tobang hi dingu, chule lung hon samul anehheng tobang hung hidiu ahije. Hinla ka chonphatna chu itih’a hijinga, Ka mihuhhingna jong akhang khanga kijom jing ding ahi.
For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool; but my righteousness shall be forever, and my salvation to all generations."
9 Khangin, khangin, Vo Pakai! Thaneitah in hung kivonin! Nathahatna banjet chu hin jah doh in! Masanglai nikhoa nangman Nile vadunga Hingne(dragon) tobang Aigupta mite natha tobang chu hiuhen.
Awake, awake, put on strength, arm of the LORD; awake, as in the days of old, the generations of ancient times. Isn't it you who cut Rahab in pieces, who pierced the monster?
10 Na mite agalkai theina dinguva twithuh lah’a kona ahungdoh theina dingun, twikhanglen nakan sah in, lampi lhung lut pachu, tunia hi Ama chu na hilou hitam?
Isn't it you who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; who made the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass over?
11 Pakai lhatsate chu hung kile’ uvintin, tonsot kipana lallukhuh khuh puma Jerusalema chu lasa puma lut’uvintin, lungkhamna le lunghemna kitol mangin tin, amaho chu kipana le thanopna’a dim jing ding ahitauve.
The ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing to Zion; and everlasting joy shall be on their heads. They shall obtain gladness and joy. Sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
12 Keima, kei mong mongin nangho kalhamon nahiuvin, hijeh’a chu mihem ho chu, hampa banga mollha loile mangthei bep ahiuvin, ipi dinga na kichat ham?
"I, even I, am he who comforts you: who are you, that you are afraid of man who shall die, and of the son of man who shall be made as grass;
13 Hijongleh nanghon Pakai, na Sempa’u, vanho hin pha jal'a chule leiset bul hin phutdohpa chu na sumil tauve. Mihem bol hesohna na kichat jom jing diu ha? Na melma teu lunghanna na kichat jom jing dingu ham? Tua hi alungsat nau le alunghan nau hoilamba geija hitam? Achemang'a ahitai.
and have forgotten the LORD your Maker, who stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and fear continually all the day because of the fury of the oppressor, when he makes ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?
14 Na sohchang ho’u chu gang tah’a kilhadoh ding ahiuve! Songkul lutna, an ngolna le thina chu nachan ding hitalou ding ahitai.
The captive exile shall speedily be freed; and he shall not die and go down into the pit, neither shall his bread fail.
15 Ajeh iham itileh Keima Pakai na Pathen kahi: Twikhanglen choh thouva, chule twipi kinong chu ging dum duma lhapa chu kahin, Kamin chu Vanna Galmiho Pakai kitipa chu ahi.
For I am the LORD your God, who stirs up the sea, so that its waves roar: the LORD of hosts is his name.
16 Chule Keiman ka Thuho chu nakama kakhumpeh in, chule nakihuh bitna ding chu kasellin, chule keiman vantham jol chu kapha jal'a chule leiset bul aphudoh ahin, Keiman Israel jah’a, ‘Nangho Kamite nahiuve’ kati ahi.
I have put my words in your mouth, and have covered you in the shadow of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and tell Zion, 'You are my people.'"
17 Thoudoh in, thoudoh in, Vo Jerusalem! Nangman Pakai lunghanna chu khonna nadontai. Tijat umtah khon chu nadonin, atwi valha nunungpen geija nadanga navat lhah sah ahitai.
Awake, awake, stand up, Jerusalem, that have drunk at the hand of the LORD the cup of his wrath; you have drunk from the bowl, of the cup of staggering, and drained it.
18 Na chateu khatcha jong ahinga akidalha a na khuttuh’a chule na puile ding aumtapoi.
There is none to guide her among all the sons whom she has brought forth; neither is there any who takes her by the hand among all the sons who she has brought up.
19 Hiche vangset hamsetna teni hi- manthaina le mahthahna, galle kelthohna hohi nachunga hunglhunga ahi. Nangho na hepi-khoto dingu koi kidalha hinau vem? Nangho nalhamon dingu um nauvem?
These two things have happened to you. Who will grieve for you? Desolation and destruction, and the famine and the sword. Who will console you?
20 Ajeh iham itileh nachateu chu atha’u lhadah ahita’uvin chule lampia alumgam tauvin, agamsunga chengho chu len kikhum bangin panpi bei ahitauve.
Your sons have fainted, they lie at the head of all the streets, as an antelope in a net; they are full of the wrath of the LORD, the rebuke of your God.
21 Hinla tun hiche hi ngaijin, akigimbol hesoh ho jukham tobanga lung gel je helouva touho, ju don kham jeh ahipouve.
Therefore hear now this, you afflicted, and drunk, but not with wine:
22 Hiche hi Thuneipen Pakai, na Pathen le na Panhupa chun asei ahije: Ven, keiman tijat umtah khon chu na khutna konin kalatai, nangman kalung hanna khon chu na donlou ding ahitai.
Thus says your Lord, the LORD, your God who pleads the cause of his people, "Look, I have taken out of your hand the cup of staggering, even the bowl of the cup of my wrath; you shall no more drink it again:
23 Chuche khella chu nabol hesoh ho, ‘Keihon vutvaito kichiltha dingu chule natungtun chunga lam kajot dingu ahi’ tia seiho khutna hiche khon chu kapeh joh ahitai.
and I will put it into the hand of those who afflict you, who have said to your soul, 'Bow down, that we may walk over you;' and you have laid your back as the ground, and as the street, to those who walk over."
