Isaiah 11

1 Jesi kung dawk hoi a dawn a cawn han. A tangpha dawk e a cakang ni a paw a paw han.

But there shall come forth a shoot from the stock of Jesse, —And, a sprout from his roots, shall 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.

And the spirit of Yahweh shall rest upon him, —The spirit of wisdom and understanding, The spirit of counsel and might, The spirit of knowledge and reverence of Yahweh;

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.

So will he find fragrance, in the reverence of Yahweh, And not, by the sight of his eyes, will he judge, Nor by the hearing of his ears, will he decide;

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 he will judge with righteousness! them who are poor, And decide with equity! for the oppressed of the land, —And he will smite the land With the sceptre of his mouth, And with the breath of his lips, will he slay the lawless one;

5 Lannae hoi yuemkamcunae teh a keng dawk kâyeng e taisawm lah ao.

And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, —And faithfulness the girdle of his reins;

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.

And the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, And, the leopard, with the kid, shall lie down, —And the calf and the young lion and the fatling—together, With, a little child, leading 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.

And the cow, with the bear shall find pasture, Together, shall their young ones, lie down, —And, the lion, like the ox, shall eat straw;

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.

And the sucking child shall caress over the hole of the asp, Yea over the viper’s den, hath the weaned child stretched out his hand:

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 shall not hurt—nor destroy, in all my holy mountain, —For filled is the land with the knowledge of Yahweh, As the waters, to the sea, form a covering.

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.

And there shall come to be, in that day, A root of Jesse, which shall be standing as an ensign of peoples, Unto him, shall nations seek, —And, his resting-place, shall 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.

And it shall come to pass in that day, That My Lord will again a second time set his hand, to possess himself of the remnant of his people, —who shall be left—from Assyria and from Egypt and from Pathros and from Ethiopia and from Elam and from Shinar and from Hamath and from the Coastlands 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.

And he will lift up a standard to the nations, And will gather the outcasts of Israel, —And the dispersed of Judah, will he collect, 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.

And the envy of Ephraim shall be removed, And the vexatious doings of Judah, shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah, shall not vex 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.

But they shall fly on the wing of the Philistines in the west, Together, shall they make prey of the sons of the east, —On Edom and Moab, putting forth their hand, With the sons of Ammon hearkening unto 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.

And Yahweh, will devote to destruction, the gulf of the Egyptian sea, And will brandish his hand against the River ["Euphrates"], in the full force of his spirit, —And will smite it in the seven streams And cause a marching through in 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.

So shall there be a highway for the remnant of his people who shall be left out of Assyria, —Like as it was to Israel, in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt!
