< Isaiah 58 >

1 Sumkon kimut awgin tobang'in Sam’in. Samphongin! Kichase hih in. Kami Israel te achonset’u seipeh in.
"Cry aloud, do not spare, lift up your voice like a trumpet, and declare to my people their disobedience, and to the house of Jacob their sins.
2 Hijeng jongleh amaho pathen-ngaisah toh akilou’uve! Niseh in hou’In’a ahunguvin chule kathu aboncha het nomna nei hileu akilouve. Amaho chonphat bol nam, Pathen dan thuho nungsun khaloudi tobang'in achonuve. Amahon thutah chondan ho angeh jiuvin, Pathen hinnai ding jong athanomun ahi.
Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways: as a nation that did righteousness, and did not forsake the ordinance of their God, they ask of me righteous judgments; they delight to draw near to God.
3 Amaho’n, “Na’masanga an kangol’uvin, Idia ima’agel louva naum ham? Keiho tah kaki ham bol lheh’uvin, nangman neihet peh hih’uve!” “Ajeh ipi ahi kaseipeh ding nahiuve; “Nangho kilunglhaina bep dinga an ngol’a nahi uve. Na an ngol pet uvin jong nanatong teu chu nabol hesoh jom nalai’uve,” tin keiman kaseipehtai.
'Why have we fasted,' say they, 'and you do not see? Why have we afflicted our soul, and you take no knowledge?' "Look, in the day of your fast you find pleasure, and exact all your labors.
4 Nanghon kinah le kinelna nanei’uleh, an ngol ipi phachom ding hitam? Hitia nanghon an nangol’uleh keima toh ipia phatchomna namu dingu ham?
Look, you fast for strife and contention, and to strike with the fist of wickedness: you do not fast this day so as to make your voice to be heard on high.
5 Nanghon longlau-phung huijin amut on tobang'in, na lungthim’uva kiseh gimna naneijun, kineosah tah in nalu’u nakunsah’uvin ahi. Nanghon khaodip pon naki’ah uvin, chule nalu’uva vutvai nakithe’uve. Hiche hi anngol natiu chu hija ham? Nangho lunggel’a hiche hohin Pakai lunglhai inte nati mong mong’u ham?
Is such the fast that I have chosen? the day for a man to afflict his soul? Is it to bow down his head as a rush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? Will you call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
6 Ahipoi, Keiman kadeilhen anngol chu: Alam louva songkul’a kikhum ho chu lhadohna ding, nangho natonga pang ho chu apoh gih’u ngai-jang peh’a, akibol gim ho chamlhat sah ding, akihen ho chu akihen nau thihkhao sutlhap peh ding chu ahije.
"Isn't this the fast that I have chosen: to release the bonds of wickedness, to undo the bands of the yoke, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?
7 Na anneh’u chu agilkel din kheh’unlang, innei lou chu nalima kicholdo hen. Ponsil ngaicha ho napon hou peuvin lang chule napanpi ngaicha nasopite ho’a konin kihei mang hih in.
Isn't it to distribute your bread to the hungry, and that you bring the poor who are cast out to your house? When you see the naked, that you cover him; and that you not hide yourself from your own flesh?
8 Chutengleh huhhing nachanna chu khovah bangin hung vahdoh intin, chule nakisuh khahna maha chu dampai jeng ding ahi. Pathen na ngaisahna chun na masot nintin, chuteng Pakai loupina chun nanung lam hongbit nante.
Then your light shall break forth as the morning, and your healing shall spring forth speedily; and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of the LORD shall be your rear guard.
9 Chuteng leh, nangman nakou phat phatleh Pakaiyin nadonbut ding, nangman samin natin, Aman hikoma kaume tia ahin houpai jeng ding ahi. Akibol hesoh te namkol pohgih tah chu lalhan. Mi oimona khut junga nako ji le thangthipma na-thusei ho ngan.
Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer; you shall cry, and he will say, 'Here I am.' "If you take away from the midst of you the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking wickedly;
10 Agilkel nehding pen, chule hahsatna toh ho panpin. Chutah le navah chu muthim lah’a hung vahdoh intin, chule na kimvella muthim chu sunlai banga hung vahdoh ding ahi.
and if you draw out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul: then your light shall rise in darkness, and your obscurity be as the noonday;
11 Pakaiyin na pui jom jing ding, na dang got tengleh donding twi na pentin chule natha akiledohsah kit ding ahi. Nangma twi kichap jing honlei tobang nahi ding, twinah kanglou tobang nahi ding ahije.
and the LORD will guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in dry places, and make strong your bones; and you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.
12 Na lah’uva mi phabep chun na khopiu agemsa ho chu athah sahphat kit dingu ahi. Chuteng leh nangma chu khopi bangho sapha’a le inchen ho kiledohsahpa’a nakihe ding ahitai.
Those who shall be of you shall build the old waste places; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
13 Sabbath nikho chu thengsellin nitnin. Hiche Sabbath nikhoa nabol jousea anikho chu jabollin lang, chuche nia chun na deilam lam’in chon hih in.
"If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, and the holy of the LORD honorable; and shall honor it, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words:
14 Chutengleh Pakai chu na lunglhaina hung hiding ahitai. Keiman sangtah’a nangma kajabol’a, chule na pului’u Jacob gamlo ding kateppeh chu nalungna kimding ahije, tia Keima Pakaiyin kaseidoh ahitai.
then you shall delight yourself in the LORD; and I will make you to ride on the high places of the earth; and I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father:" for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it.
