< Isaiah 55 >
1 Adangchah khattou umem? Sum nanei lou jongleh-Hung in, hungdon nin! Hungin, nadeipen pen lengpi twi hihen, bongnoi hijongleh- abonna manbei ahi.
Ho, every one of ye that thirsteth, come ye to the water, and he too that hath no money: come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy without money and without price wine and milk.
2 Ipi dinga tha na petheilou an chohna’a nasum’u mang cha a nahiu vem? Nang ho dinga aphachom louva idia sum sumanga nahiu vem? Kasei ngaijun, chule apha chu neuvin. An phapen chu lung kipah tah’a naneh dingu ahi.
Wherefore will ye spend money for what is not bread? and your labor for what satisfieth not? hearken then unto me, and eat what is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
3 Ka kom’a hunguvin, na kollu phatah in hin do’uvin. Ngaiyun, chutileh hinna namu dingu ahi. Keiman tonsot kitepna nangho toh kasem ding ahi. Keiman David koma kakitepna, lhadai ngailou lungsetna chu aboncha kapeh ding nahiuve.
Incline your ear, and come unto me, hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make with you an everlasting covenant, the promised mercies of David, which are sure.
4 Keiman ama chu kathaneina miho lah’a vetsah dinga, iti kamanchah ahi, heuvin. Keiman namtin lah’a lamkai khatna kasem ahitai.
Behold, for a lawgiver unto the people have I appointed him, a prince and commander to the people.
5 Nangman nahet khahlou nam ho chu thu napeh ding, chule nahet phahlou mite chu nakoma hunglhai lut’uva, nathusei angai dingu ahi, ajeh chu keima Pakai na-Pathen, Israelte Mitheng Pa hin, loupia kasem nahi.
Behold, a nation thou knowest not shalt thou call, and a nation that knew thee not shall run unto thee; for the sake of the Lord thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for he hath glorified thee.
6 Pakai chu namu thei pet hin hol’ in. Anai pet hin Ama chu kouvin.
Seek ye the Lord, while he may be found, call ye on him, while he is near.
7 Agilou chun alampiho khel hen, chule thildih lou abolna lung gel dalha hen. Pakaiyin ahepi theina dingin. Ama heng lama hung kihei’u hen. Ahije, na- Pathen henga hung kihei’uhen, ijeh inem itileh Ama’n lungset hepia angaidamna achan tei ding ahi.
Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of unrighteousness his thoughts; and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him, and unto our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8 Nangho lung gel chu Keima dinga imacha hilou ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseije. Chule ka lampiho hi nangho gah gelphah jou hoi ahipoi.
For not my thoughts are your thoughts, and not your ways are my ways, saith the Lord.
9 Ajeh iham itileh vanho chu leiset sanga asanjoh tobanga, ka-lampi ho jong nangho lampi sanga sang jo’a ahi chule kagel ho hi nangho gel sanga sang joa ahi.
For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so high are my ways above your ways, and my thoughts above your thoughts.
10 Go twi le gel twi hi van hoa kona hung julha’ a hichun leiset chapnou dingin, leisetna aumden’in ahi. Amaho hin muchi- chivo ho chu akhan letsah in, loubol miho dingin ga asodoh in chule agilkel dingin an ahi.
For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and return not thither, but water the earth, and render it fruitful, and cause it to bring forth plants; and give seed to the sower and bread to him that eateth:
11 Ka Thujong chutima ahi. Keiman kasoldoh’a chule hichun ga asodoh jingin ahi. Keiman kalunggot banga asuh bulhit ding chule kasolna channa abulhit molso tei hiding ahi.
So shall ever be my word which goeth forth from my mouth, it shall not return unto me without effect; but it accomplisheth what I desire, and it prospereth in that whereto I have sent it.
12 Nangho kipah le lungmonga nachen dingu ahi. Lhangsang ho le mol ho chun la ahinsah doh jeng dingu, chule lou jaova thingphung hon akhutnu abeh dingu ahi.
For in joy shall ye go out, and in peace shall ye be brought home: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into song, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
13 Ling phungho akenao munho’a chu thing sang tah tah ho hungkeh ding chule khao-guiho umna hoa chu len mui phung –eng jinjen chu hungkehdoh ding ahi. Hiche thilsoh ho hin Pakai min jana lentah ahinlhut ding, hiche ho jouse hi atonsotna athaneina le angailutna melchihna hung hi ta ding ahi.
Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir-tree, and instead of the nettle shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be unto the Lord for a name, for a sign of everlasting that shall not be cut off.
