Isaiah 64
1 Oh, van hoa konna nahung kijaldoh jeng’a chule nahung kum suh hita ve leh! Na masanga lhangsang ho jong ti kithing thing jeng diu ahije!
If you would open the heaven, trembling will take hold upon the mountains from you, and they shall melt,
2 Meiyin thing go akahvama chule twiho asatsah tobang'in, nangma hung chun chitin- namtin kithing uvintin, chutah le na melma ten na minthanna ajeh ahetdoh dingu ahitai.
as wax melts before the fire; and fire shall burn up the enemies, and your name shall be manifest among the adversaries: at your presence the nations shall be troubled,
3 Ma sanglaipeh’a na hungkumsuh chun, nangman kidangtah tah kagel phah’u kalval peh in thilho naboldohsa ahije. Hiti chun lhangsangho jong chu akihot jenguve!
whenever you shall work gloriously; trembling from you shall take hold upon the mountains.
4 Ajeh iham itileh vannoi bul kiphu’a patnin, koima’n ajah khahlou, chule Ama ngah jing ho hitobang athil bolpeh umkha lou, mihem koima mitnin nang tobang Pathen hi amukha pouve!
From of old we have not heard, neither have our eyes seen a God beside you, and your works which you will perform to them that wait for mercy.
5 Kipah thanom’a apha bol ho, Pathen ngaisah ho chu kipah’in nakimupi ji'e. Hinla keiho pathen-ngaisah lou kahi jeh’un, kachunguva nalung hang lheh jenge. Keiho chonset bol bol jeng ka hiuvin; keiho tobangbep hi iti ka sochat dingu ham?
For [these blessings] shall happen to them that work righteousness, and they shall remember your ways: behold, you were angry and we have sinned; therefore we have erred,
6 Keiho hi ka bonchauva achonsea le athenglou chu kahiuve. Ka chonphat thilbol hou jong, imacha dang hilou ponse-namse tobang bou ahi. Khal laiya thingna apul tobang'in keiho kagop pai jiuvin chule kapullha ji tauve, chule hui hung nung tobang'in ka chonset’uvin eipui mang ji tauve.
and we are all become as unclean, and all our righteousness as a filthy rag: and we have fallen as leaves because of our iniquities; thus the wind shall carry us [away].
7 Ahivangin na mina taova koima aumpouvin chule na khotona angeh pouve. Hijeh hin, nangma keihoa konin na kihei mangin, chule ka chonset nau lama nei lehei mang tauve.
And there is none that calls upon your name, or that remembers to take hold on you: for you have turned your face away from us, and have delivered us up because of our sins.
8 Chuti hijongleh, Vo Pakai, nangma ka Pa’u nahije. Nangma bel dengpa chu nahin chule keiho leingan kahiuve. Keima ho jouse hi nakhutna neisemu ahije.
And now, O Lord, you are our Father, and we are clay, all [of us] the work of your hands.
9 Pakai, neilunghan hih beh’uvin. Ka chonsetna ho’u chu geldoh jom jing tahih beh in. Nei hin vetem’un, katao’u ahi, chule keima ho jouse hi namite kahiuve.
Be not very angry with us, and remember not our sins for ever; but now look on [us], for we are all your people.
10 Na khopi thengho jong suhmangin aumtai. Zion hi gamthip akisoh in; henge, Jerusalem hi amangthah hel ahitai.
The city of your holiness has become desolate, Sion has become as a wilderness, Jerusalem a curse.
11 Hou’in theng le hoitah, kapu kapa teuvin na vahchoila asah nau mun chu, akihal vam’a ahitai, chule vet hoithei jouse chu kisumang soh’a ahitai.
The house, our sanctuary, and the glory which our fathers blessed, has been burnt with fire: and all our glorious things have gone to ruin.
12 Hicheng jouse nunga jong hi, Pakai, nangman nei donlou teitei dingu hitam? Thip beh’a naum joma chule nei gimbol dingu hitam?
And for all these things you, O Lord, has withholden, yourself, and been silent, and have brought us very low.
