< Isaiah 11 >
1 Jesi kung dawk hoi a dawn a cawn han. A tangpha dawk e a cakang ni a paw a paw han.
Then a shoot will spring up from the stump of Jesse, and a Branch from his roots will bear fruit.
2 BAWIPA e Muitha, lungangnae Muitha, thaipanueknae Muitha, kâponae Muitha, thaonae Muitha, panuenae Muitha, hoi BAWIPA takinae Muitha teh ahni dawk ao han.
The Spirit of the LORD will rest on Him— the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and strength, the Spirit of knowledge and fear of the LORD.
3 Ahni teh BAWIPA a taki dawkvah, a mit hoi a hmu e patetlah lawkceng hoeh, a hnâ hoi a thai e patetlah lawk tâtueng hoeh.
And He will delight in the fear of the LORD. He will not judge by what His eyes see, and He will not decide by what His ears hear,
4 Mathoenaw hah lannae hoi lawk a ceng teh, talai taminaw koelah, panguepnae lahoi lawk a tâtueng pouh. Talai hah a lawk bongpai hoi a hem teh, tamikathoutnaw hah a kâha hoi a thei.
but with righteousness He will judge the poor, and with equity He will decide for the lowly of the earth. He will strike the earth with the rod of His mouth and slay the wicked with the breath of His lips.
5 Lannae hoi yuemkamcunae teh a keng dawk kâyeng e taisawm lah ao.
Righteousness will be the belt around His hips, and faithfulness the sash around His waist.
6 Asui teh tuca hoi rei ao han. Kaisi teh hmaeca hoi rei a yan han. Maitoca, sendek, hoi ka thâw e saringnaw hoi reirei a ceio awh han. Camocanaw ni hotnaw hah a hrawi awh han.
The wolf will live with the lamb, and the leopard will lie down with the goat; the calf and young lion and fatling will be together, and a little child will lead them.
7 Maitomanu hoi tavom teh reirei hrampa awh vaiteh, a canaw teh reirei a yan awh han. Sendek hai maito patetlah hram a ca han.
The cow will graze with the bear, their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox.
8 Sanu ka net e camo ni hai hrunthoe khu koe a pai han. Sanu kamphei e camo nihai, hrunthok khu dawk a tapu han.
The infant will play by the cobra’s den, and the toddler will reach into the viper’s nest.
9 Kaie kathounge mon dawk, kârektapnae, kâraphoenae awm mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tuipui ni amae hmuen hah a ramuk e patetlah talai van teh, BAWIPA panuenae hoi akawi han.
They will neither harm nor destroy on all My holy mountain, for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the sea is full of water.
10 Hate hnin dawkvah, Jesi e tangpha teh cawn vaiteh, taminaw hanelah mitnoutnae lah ao han. Hote mitnoutnae koe Jentelnaw teh a kâhnai awh han. A onae hmuen hai a lentoe han.
On that day the Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples. The nations will seek Him, and His place of rest will be glorious.
11 Hate hnin dawkvah, a kut dâw vaiteh, Assiria ram, Izip ram, Pathros ram, Kush ram, Elam ram, Shinar ram, Hamath ram, tuipui namran lah kaawm e ramnaw koehoi, a taminaw kacawiraenaw hah bout a thokhai.
On that day the Lord will extend His hand a second time to recover the remnant of His people from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Cush, from Elam, from Shinar, from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
12 Jentelnaw hanelah mitnoutnae a ung pouh dawkvah, a pâlei e Isarelnaw hoi kho tangkuem kampek e Judahnaw hah, talai takin pali touh koehoi kaw vaiteh, a pâkhueng han.
He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel; He will collect the scattered of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
13 Ephraim teh utnae lung a roum han. Ouk ka taran e Judahnaw hai taran ngainae lung a roum awh han. Ephraim ni Judahnaw hah ut awh mahoeh toe. Judahnaw ni Ephraim hah taran awh mahoeh toe.
Then the jealousy of Ephraim will depart, and the adversaries of Judah will be cut off. Ephraim will no longer envy Judah, nor will Judah harass Ephraim.
14 Ahnimouh ni kanîloum lah, Filistinnaw hah a tuk awh han. Kanîtholae ramnaw e hnopainaw hah reirei a lawp awh han. Edomnaw hoi Moabnaw hai a thei awh han. Ammonnaw ni ahnimae lawk hah a ngai pouh awh han.
They will swoop down on the slopes of the Philistines to the west; together they will plunder the sons of the east. They will lay their hands on Edom and Moab, and the Ammonites will be subject to them.
15 BAWIPA ni Izip tuipui e lai hah khoeroe a raphoe pouh han. Kabetpoung e kahlî hoi a kut hah palangnaw van kahek vaiteh, palang sari touh a lawng nahanlah hem vaiteh, taminaw ni khokkhawm khawm vaiteh a raka awh han.
The LORD will devote to destruction the gulf of the Sea of Egypt; with a scorching wind He will sweep His hand over the Euphrates. He will split it into seven streams for men to cross with dry sandals.
16 Isarelnaw Izip ram hoi a tâco awh navah kaawm e patetlah Assiria ram hoi kacawie a taminaw ceinae lamthung lah a coung han.
There will be a highway for the remnant of His people who remain from Assyria, as there was for Israel when they came up from the land of Egypt.
