< 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, Zion. Put on your beautiful garments, Jerusalem, the holy city, for from now on the uncircumcised and the unclean will no more come into you.
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 the dust! Arise, sit up, Jerusalem! Release yourself from the bonds of your neck, 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 the LORD says, “You were sold for nothing; and you will be 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 the Lord GOD says: “My people went down at the first into Egypt to live there; and the Assyrian has oppressed them without cause.
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.
“Now therefore, what do I do here,” says the LORD, “seeing that my people are taken away for nothing? Those who rule over them mock,” says the LORD, “and my name is blasphemed continually all day long.
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 shall know my name. Therefore they shall know in that day that I am he who speaks. Behold, it is I.”
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 beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news, who proclaims salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”
8 Pakai chu Jerusalem’a ahung kile chun, Khopi ngahpa chun asamin chule amit mu’uva chun kipah le thanom tah in la asatai.
Your watchmen lift up their voice. Together they sing; for they shall see eye to eye when the LORD returns 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 out into joy! Sing together, you waste places of Jerusalem; for the LORD 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.
The LORD has made his holy arm bare in the eyes of all the nations. 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.
Depart! Depart! Go out from there! Touch no unclean thing! Go out from amongst her! Cleanse yourselves, you who carry the LORD’s vessels.
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 shall not go out in haste, neither shall you go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
13 Veuvin, Kalhacha chu lolhing ding, Ama sangtah’a choisanga um ding ahi.
Behold, my servant will deal wisely. He will be exalted and lifted up, and will be 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.
Just as many were astonished at you— his appearance was marred more than any man, and his form more than the 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 will cleanse many nations. Kings will shut their mouths at him; for they will see that which had not been told them, and they will understand that which they had not heard.
