< Isaiah 62 >

1 Zion khopui tie Jerusalem khopui e lannae hah angnae patetlah rungngangnae hah ka ang e hmaiim patetlah a kamnue hoehroukrak kai teh duem kaawm mahoeh.
For Zions sake I will not holde my tongue, and for Ierusalems sake I wil not rest, vntil the righteousnes thereof breake foorth as the light, and saluation thereof as a burning lampe.
2 Jentelnaw ni a lannae a hmu vaiteh, siangpahrangnaw ni na bawilennae a hmu awh han. BAWIPA pahni dawk hoi ka tâcawt e min katha lahoi nang na kaw awh han.
And the Gentiles shall see thy righteousnesse, and all Kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord shall name.
3 BAWIPA kut dawk e bawilennae bawilukhung hoi na Cathut kut dawk e bawinaw e bawilukhung lah na o han.
Thou shalt also be a crowne of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royall diademe in the hand of thy God.
4 Nang teh pahnawt e tami tet mahoeh toe. Na ram hai tami kingdinae telah tet mahoeh toe. Hatei, ngai kaawm e telah ati awh vaiteh, BAWIPA teh nangmouh dawk a lunghawi vaiteh, na ram hai vâ a tawn han toe.
It shall no more be sayd vnto thee, Forsaken, neither shall it be said any more to thy land, Desolate, but thou shalt be called Hephzi-bah, and thy land Beulah: for the Lord deliteth in thee, and thy land shall haue an husband.
5 Thoundoun ni tanglakacuem a paluen e patetlah na capanaw ni a yu lah a paluen han. Yu ka paluen e thoundoun ni a ham e tanglakacuem dawk a lunghawi e patetlah na Cathut hai nang dawk a lunghawi han.
For as a yong man marieth a virgine, so shall thy sonnes marry thee: and as a bridegrome is glad of the bride, so shall thy God reioyce ouer thee.
6 Oe, Jerusalem, rapan kalupnae hah ramvengnaw ka ring sak teh, karum khodai nâtuek hai duem awm awh mahoeh.
I haue set watchmen vpon thy walles, O Ierusalem, which all the day and all the night continually shall not cease: ye that are mindfull of the Lord, keepe not silence,
7 Jerusalem kho a caksak teh, pholennae lah ao hoehnahlan totouh BAWIPA hah duem kâhat sak awh hanh.
And giue him no rest, till hee repaire and vntill hee set vp Ierusalem the prayse of the worlde.
8 BAWIPA ni a rang lae kut a tha kaawm pounge a kutbuembue noe lahoi, lawk a kam teh, na tarannaw koe nangmae na tawk tangcoung e misurtui net awh mahoeh toe.
The Lord hath sworne by his right hand and by his strong arme, Surely I wil no more giue thy corne to be meate for thine enemies, and surely the sonnes of the strangers shall not drinke thy wine, for the which thou hast laboured.
9 Hatei, katawkkungnaw ni a ca awh vaiteh, BAWIPA hah a pholen awh han. Cungtalah ka thokhai e naw ni, ka hmuen kathoung thongma dawk misurtui a nei awh han.
But they that haue gathered it, shall eate it, and prayse the Lord, and the gatherers thereof shall drinke it in the courtes of my Sanctuarie.
10 Longkha dawk hoi tâcawt awh, tâcawt awh. Taminaw cei nahan lam rakueng awh. Talai paten awh. Talungnaw takhoe awh. Taminaw hanelah mitnoutnae vo awh.
Go through, go through the gates: prepare you the way for the people: cast vp, cast vp the way, and gather out the stones and set vp a standart for the people.
11 BAWIPA ni talai apout totouh hanelah a pâpho toe. Zion canu koe hettelah dei pouh awh. Rungngangnae teh a pha roeroe han. Khenhaw! tawkphu teh ama koe ao teh, a sak e hai a hmalah ao.
Beholde, the Lord hath proclaimed vnto the endes of the world: tell the daughter Zion, Beholde, thy Sauiour commeth: beholde, his wages is with him, and his worke is before him.
12 Ahnimanaw teh BAWIPA ni ratang e tami, kathounge taminaw, ati awh han. Nang teh pâphawng e, ceitakhai hoeh e khopui ati awh han telah a ti.
And they shall call them, The holy people, the redeemed of the Lord, and thou shalt be named, A citie sought out and not forsaken.
