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 Zion's sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp that burns.
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 your righteousness, and all kings your glory: and you shall 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.
You shall also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of your 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.
You shall no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall your land any more be termed Desolate: but you shall be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah: for the LORD delights in you, and your land shall be married.
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 young man marries a virgin, so shall your sons marry you: and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you.
6 Oe, Jerusalem, rapan kalupnae hah ramvengnaw ka ring sak teh, karum khodai nâtuek hai duem awm awh mahoeh.
I have set watchmen upon your walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: all of you that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence,
7 Jerusalem kho a caksak teh, pholennae lah ao hoehnahlan totouh BAWIPA hah duem kâhat sak awh hanh.
And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
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 has sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Surely I will no more give your corn to be food for your enemies; and the sons of the stranger shall not drink your wine, for the which you have 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 have gathered it shall eat it, and praise the LORD; and they that have brought it together shall drink it in the courts of my holiness.
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 all of you the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard 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.
Behold, the LORD has proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say all of you to the daughter of Zion, Behold, your salvation comes; behold, his reward is with him, and his work 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 you shall be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken.
