Isaiah 58

1 Sumkon kimut awgin tobang'in Sam’in. Samphongin! Kichase hih in. Kami Israel te achonset’u seipeh in.

“Cry aloud! Don’t spare! Lift up your voice like a trumpet! 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 didn’t forsake the ordinance of their God, they ask of me righteous judgements. 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,’ they say, ‘and you don’t see? Why have we afflicted our soul, and you don’t notice?’ “Behold, in the day of your fast you find pleasure, and oppress all your labourers.

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?

Behold, you fast for strife and contention, and to strike with the fist of wickedness. You don’t fast today 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 this the fast that I have chosen? A day for a man to humble his soul? Is it to bow down his head like a reed, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under himself? 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 straps of the yoke, 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 will break out as the morning, and your healing will appear quickly; then your righteousness shall go before you, and the LORD’s glory will 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 will call, and the LORD will answer. You will cry for help, and he will say, ‘Here I am.’ “If you take away from amongst you the yoke, finger pointing, 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 pour out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul, then your light will rise in darkness, and your obscurity will 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, satisfy your soul in dry places, and make your bones strong. You will be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water whose waters don’t 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 will be of you will build the old waste places. You will raise up the foundations of many generations. You will be called Repairer of the Breach, Restorer of Paths with Dwellings.

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 honourable, and honour 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 will 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 LORD’s mouth has spoken it.
