< Isaiah 6 >

1 Uzziah siangpahrang a duenae kum dawkvah, tawm lah kaawm e BAWIPA teh bawitungkhung van a tahung e hah ka hmu. A khohna ni bawkim dawk muen akawi.
In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
2 Tungkhung e avoivang lah, Seraphimnaw teh a kangdue awh. Hote Seraphimnaw teh, rathei taruk touh rip a tawn awh. Rathei kahni touh hoi a minhmai, kahni touh hoi a khoknaw hah a ramuk awh teh, kahni touh hoi a kamleng awh.
Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
3 Buet touh ni buet touh koe, Rasahu BAWIPA teh a thoung, a thoung, a thoung, talai van pueng teh a bawilennae hoi akawi telah a hramkhai awh.
And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is Yhwh of Armies: the whole earth is full of his glory.
4 Hottelah hram e lawk ni longkha e khomdunaw a kâhuet sak teh, hmaikhu hoi im teh akawi.
And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 Hat toteh, kai ni, Oe hettelah doeh ka o toe. Kai ka cungkeihoeh toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kakhin e pahni doeh ka tawn. Ka khin e pahni ka tawn e miphun koe doeh ka o. Rasahu BAWIPA, siangpahrang hah ka mit ni a hmu toe ka ti.
Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, Yhwh of Armies.
6 Hattoteh Seraphim buet touh ni, thuengnae khoungroe dawk e paitei hoi a sin e hmaisaan hah a kut hoi a kuet teh kai ka onae koe kamleng laihoi a tho teh,
Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
7 ka pahni hah a nep teh, hete hmaisaan ni na pahni a kânep toe. Na payonnae teh takhoe lah ao toe. Na yon hai thoungsak lah ao toe ati.
And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
8 Hahoi, BAWIPA ni dei e lawk bout ka thai. Kai ni apimaw ka patoun han. Kai hanelah apimaw ka cet han, ati navah, kai ni kai ka o, kai na patoun loe ka ti pouh.
Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
9 BAWIPA ni, hote miphunnaw onae koe cet nateh, na thai awh eiteh, na thai panuek awh hoeh. Na hmu awh eiteh, na nout awh hoeh tet pouh.
And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
10 A mit hmawt awh hoeh, a hna thai awh hoeh, a nuen kâthung awh hoeh, a patawnae karoumsak hoeh nahan totouh, a lungthin mom sak, a hnâpang sak, a mitdawn sak pouh ati.
Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
11 Hatnavah, kai ni, Oe BAWIPA nâtotouh maw telah ka pacei navah, kho thung khoca o hoeh nahanelah, im thung imkung o hoeh nahanelah, koung raphoe vaiteh, ram thung tami kingkadi lah ao totouh thoseh,
Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate,
12 BAWIPA ni taminaw hah ahlanae koe a thak vaiteh, ram teh kingkadi lah ao totouh thoseh a saw han ati.
And Yhwh have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.
13 Hote ram dawk hra touh dawk buet touh ka cawi rah nakunghai, hote ka cawi e hah boutbout raphoe lah ao han. Hatei, hmaica thing hoi bengkeng thingnaw tâtueng teh, a thongmui a cawi e patetlah kathounge catoun teh hote ram dawk thongmui lah ao han.
But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof.
