< Isaiah 52 >

1 Thoudoh in, thoudoh in, Vo Zion! Nangmatah nathahatnan hung kivon’in. Naponsil hoitah chu kisillin, ajeh chu mi theng lou le Pathen ngaisah lou ho chu na kelkot honga hunglut talou ding ahitauve, Vo khopi theng, Jerusalem.
Awake, awake, put on your strength, O Zion, Put on the garments of your beauty, Jerusalem—the Holy City; For the uncircumcised and unclean no longer enter into you again.
2 Vut vailah’a konin thoudoh in, jabolna muna touvin, Vo Jerusalem. Nangong changa soh kihenna thihkhao ho chu paimangin. Vo soh a kikaimang, Zion chanu.
Shake yourself from dust, arise, sit, O Jerusalem, Bands of your neck have loosed themselves, O captive daughter of Zion.
3 Ajeh iham itileh hiche hi Pakai sei: ‘Keiman nangho chu kajohdoh’a gam danga kathotdoh’ chun, keiman imacha kakilah dehpoi. Tua keiman naman dingu petalouva, kalhatdoh thei’u nahitauve.
For thus said YHWH: “You have been sold for nothing, And you are redeemed without money.”
4 Hiche hi Thuneipen Pakai chun aseije: Phat masa lai chun kamiten Aigupta gam'a chenna din akilhenuve. Tua hi Assyria ten amaho abol hesoh’uve.
For thus said Lord YHWH: “My people went down at first To Egypt to sojourn there, And Asshur—he has oppressed it for nothing.
5 Hiche hi ipi thu hitam? tin Pakaiyin aseije. Ipi iti danna kamite chu sohchang kitna hiu vem? Achunguva vaihom ho chu kithang at tah in asamuve. Kamin hi nilhum keijin ataitom’uvin ahi.
And now, what [have] I here,” A declaration of YHWH, “That My people are taken for nothing? Its rulers cause howling,” A declaration of YHWH, “And My Name is continually despised all the day.
6 Hijongleh Kamin hi Kamite henga kaphon doh ding, chule athaneina ahin het dingu ahitai. Chuteng leh achaina keija amahon keima hi akomuva thusei penpa kahi chu ahetdoh dingu ahitai.
Therefore My people know My Name, Therefore, in that day, Surely I [am] He who is speaking, behold Me.”
7 Lhang sangho chunga thupole’a pang, Israel Pathen chu avaihomtai, tia Chamna Kipana Thupha le huhhingna thupoho kengphang chu iti hoiya hoi hitam!
How lovely on the mountains, Have been the feet of one proclaiming tidings, Sounding peace, proclaiming good tidings, Sounding salvation, Saying to Zion, “Your God has reigned.”
8 Pakai chu Jerusalem’a ahung kile chun, Khopi ngahpa chun asamin chule amit mu’uva chun kipah le thanom tah in la asatai.
The voice of your watchmen! They have lifted up the voice, together they cry aloud, Because they see eye to eye, In YHWH’s turning back [to] Zion.
9 Pakaiyin Amite alhamon’a, Jerusalem alhatdamtah jeh in, ana kisuchimsa Jerusalem chun kipah le thanom tah in vahchoina la hin sadoh hen.
Break forth, sing together, O ruins of Jerusalem, For YHWH has comforted His people, He has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 Chitin- namtin mit mua Pakaiyin athaneina thengtah chu avetsahtai. I Pathen’uvin agal jona leiset kolkim vella miten amusohkei dingu ahi.
YHWH has made His holy arm bare Before the eyes of all the nations, And all the ends of the earth have seen The salvation of our God.
11 Natoh khah chasun thenglou ahina’a konin potnin, potdoh'in chule nasohchanna chu dalhatan. Pakai dia athenga thil ho a’inlama pohon, hichea konhin potnun lang chule kisuthengun.
Turn aside, turn aside, go out from there, Do not touch the unclean, Go out from her midst, Be pure, who are carrying the weapons of YHWH.
12 Nanghon na hinkhou kihuhbitna dinga, kino loutah’a na dalhah diu ahi. Ajeh chu Pakai chu na masang sanguva anamasa ding; Israel Pathen chun na nunglamu ahonbit ding ahi.
For you do not go out in haste, Indeed, you do not go on with flight, For YHWH [is] going before you, And the God of Israel [is] gathering you!
13 Veuvin, Kalhacha chu lolhing ding, Ama sangtah’a choisanga um ding ahi.
“Behold, My Servant acts wisely, He is high, and has been lifted up, And has been very high.”
14 Hinla mitampi chun amu phat’uvin kidang asauve. Amaa mai chu akilom hihbeh jengin, mihem mel aputahbeh tapon, chule alimsoa konin, ama chu mihem shi tia ahedoh ding hahsante.
As many have been astonished at You (His appearance so marred by man, And His form by sons of men),
15 Chule aman namtin-vaipi alungkidan sah ding, Lengho jong Ama angsunga thusei ding helouva umding ahiuve. Ajeh chu amaho kiseipehlou amudingu, chule ajahkhahlou beh’u chu ahetkhen dingu ahitai.
So He sprinkles many nations. Kings shut their mouth concerning Him, For that which was not recounted to them they have seen, And that which they had not heard they have understood!
