< 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 of the death of King Uzziah—I see the Lord, sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and His train is filling 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.
Seraphim are standing above it: each one has six wings; with two [each] covers its face, and with two [each] covers its feet, and with two [each] flies.
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 this one has called to that, and has said: “HOLY, HOLY, HOLY, [is] YHWH of Hosts, The fullness of all the earth [is] 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 thresholds are moved by the voice of him who is calling, and the house is full of 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.
And I say, “Woe to me, for I have been silent, For I [am] a man of unclean lips, And I am dwelling in [the] midst of a people of unclean lips, Because the King, YHWH of Hosts, my eyes have seen.”
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,
And one of the seraphim flees to me, and in his hand—a burning coal (with tongs he has taken [it] 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 strikes against my mouth and says: “Behold, this has struck against your lips, And your iniquity is turned aside, And your sin is covered.”
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.
And I hear the voice of the Lord, saying, “Whom do I send? And who goes for Us?” And I say, “Here I [am], 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 says, “Go, and you have said to this people, Hearing you hear, and you do not understand, And seeing you see, and you do not know.
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.
Declare the heart of this people fat, And declare its ears heavy, And declare its eyes dazzled, Lest it see with its eyes, And hear with its ears, and consider with its heart, And it has turned back, and has health.”
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,
And I say, “Until when, O Lord?” And He says, “Surely until cities have been ruined without inhabitant, And houses without man, And the ground is ruined—a desolation,
12 BAWIPA ni taminaw hah ahlanae koe a thak vaiteh, ram teh kingkadi lah ao totouh thoseh a saw han ati.
And YHWH has put man far off, And the forsaken part [is] great in the heart 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.
And yet a tenth in it, and it has turned, And has been for a burning, As a teil-tree, and as an oak, that in falling, Has substance in them, The holy seed [is] its substance!”
