Isaiah 65
1 Kai na ka pacei hoeh naw e lawk ka thai pouh teh, Kai na ka tawng hoeh e ni na hmu awh toe. Kai hah na khen awh haw, na khenhaw! telah ka min ka kaw hoeh e miphunnaw koe ka dei pouh toe.
I have been ready to give an answer to those who did not make prayer to me; I have been offering myself to those who were not searching for me; I said, Here am I, here am I, to a nation which gave no respect to my name.
2 Amamouh ngai patetlah kahawihoehe lam ka dawn niteh, kangek e miphunnaw koelah, kanîruirui ka kut kadai pouh han.
All day my hands have been stretched out to an uncontrolled people, who go in an evil way, after the purposes of their hearts;
3 Takha dawk thuengnae a sak awh teh, amhru van hmuitui hmai a sawi awh teh, ka lungkhuek nahanlah ka hmalah pou a sak awh.
A people who make me angry every day, making offerings in gardens, and burning perfumes on bricks.
4 Phuen dawk ka tahung niteh, arulae hmuen koe ka roe e, vokmoi ka cat ni teh panuettho e moi hang ka pahrap e ni,
Who are seated in the resting-places of the dead, and by night are in the secret places; who take pig's flesh for food, and have the liquid of disgusting things in their vessels.
5 Nama dueng awm haw. Kai koe hnai hanh, nang hlak bet ka thounghnawn ouk ati. Hot patet e taminaw teh, ka hnawng dawk e hmaikhu hoi pou ka kang e hmai patetlah doeh ao awh.
Who say, Keep away, do not come near me, for fear that I make you holy: these are a smoke in my nose, a fire burning all day.
6 Ka hmalah thut lah ao dawkvah, duem kaawm mahoeh, moi ka pathung han. Bokheiyah, na lungtabue dawk na payonnae hoi na mintoenaw e payonnae teh moi ka pathung van han telah BAWIPA ni ati
See, it is recorded before me, says the Lord: I will not keep back my hand, till I have sent punishment,
7 Ahnimouh ni teh, mon kalennaw dawk hmuitui hmai a sawi awh teh, monruinaw dawk ka min a dudam awh. Hatdawkvah, hmaloe a sak awh e hah poe hanelah lungtabue dawk ka bangnue han.
For their sins and the sins of their fathers, who were burning perfumes on the mountains, and saying evil things against me on the hills: so I will take the measure of their sins, and will send the punishment for them into their breast.
8 BAWIPA ni bout a dei e teh, misurbom dawk misurtui katha hmu toteh, raphoe hanh, yawhawinae ao ouk ati awh e patetlah ka sannaw hane dawkvah, hottelah ka raphoe mahoeh.
This is the word of the Lord: As the new wine is seen in the grapes, and they say, Do not send destruction on it, for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants, in order that I may not put an end to them all.
9 Jakop catoun thung hoi cati buet touh hai thoseh, Judah catoun thung hoi ka monnaw râw lah ka coe hane thoseh, ka tâco sak han. Kai ni ka rawi e naw ni ram hah râw lah a coe vaiteh, ka sannaw ni kho a sak nah awh han.
And I will take a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah one who will have my mountains for a heritage: and the people I have taken to be mine will have it for themselves, and my servants will have their resting-place there.
10 Kai na ka tawng e taminaw hanelah, Sharon teh tutakha lah ao han. Akhor yawn hai maitohu roenae hmuen lah ao han.
And Sharon will be a grass-land for the flocks, and the valley of Achor a resting-place for the herds: for my people whose hearts have been turned back to me.
11 Nang teh BAWIPA ka pahnawt e, kaie kathounge mon ka pahnim e, Gad cathut hanelah caboi ka phai pouh e, Meni cathut hanelah kalawt tangcoung e misur ka awi e tami lah na o awh.
But as for you who have given up the Lord, who have no care for my holy mountain, who get ready a table for Chance, and make offerings of mixed wine to Fate;
12 Nangmouh teh, na parei vaiteh, tahloi koe na poe awh han. Abuemlahoi na due awh nahanlah na tabut awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh kai ni na kaw awh navah na pato awh hoeh. Ka dei navah, na thai awh hoeh. Ka hmaitung vah kathout hno na sak awh toe. Ka ngaihoeh e hno hah na rawi awh.
Your fate will be the sword, and you will all go down to death: because when my voice came to you, you made no answer; you did not give ear to my word; but you did what was evil in my eyes, desiring what was not pleasing to me.
13 Hatdawkvah, Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei e teh, ka sannaw ni a ca awh han. Nangmouh teh na vonhlam awh han. Ka sannaw ni a nei awh han. Nangmouh teh tui na kahran awh han. Ka sannaw ni a konawm awh han. Nangmouh teh na kaya awh han.
For this cause says the Lord God, My servants will have food, but you will be in need of food: my servants will have drink, but you will be dry: my servants will have joy, but you will be shamed:
14 Ka sannaw ni lunghawi laihoi la a sak awh han. Nangmouh teh lungmathoe laihoi na ka awh han. Muitha lungmathoe laihoi na cingou awh han.
My servants will make songs in the joy of their hearts, but you will be crying for sorrow, and making sounds of grief from a broken spirit.
15 Nangmouh teh ka rawi e taminaw koe na min thoebo hanelah na ceitakhai awh han. Bawipa Jehovah ni nang hah na thet vaiteh, a sannaw hah min louk hoi a kaw han.
And your name will become a curse to my people, and the Lord God will put you to death, and give his servants another name:
16 Talaivan vah mahoima yawhawi ka poe e teh, yuemkamcu e Cathut kâuep laihoi yawhawi a poe han. Talaivan thoe ka bo e teh, Cathut noe laihoi thoe a bo han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahmaloe e naw hah pahnim toe. Ka hmaitung vah a kahma toe.
So that he who is requesting a blessing will make use of the name of the true God, and he who takes an oath will do so by the true God; because the past troubles are gone out of mind, and because they are covered from my eyes.
17 Khenhaw! Kalvan katha hoi talai katha hah ka sak. Ahmaloe e kalvan hoi talai hah pouk mahoeh, pâkuem mahoeh toe.
For see, I am making a new heaven and a new earth: and the past things will be gone completely out of mind.
18 Ka sak e hno dawkvah, a yungyoe lunghawi awh nateh, konawm awh. Jerusalem dawk ka konawmnae lah khocanaw dawk ka lunghawinae lah ka sak han.
But men will be glad and have joy for ever in what I am making; for I am making Jerusalem a delight, and her people a joy.
19 Kai hai Jerusalem kho kecu dawk ka konawm han. Ka taminaw kecu dawk ka lunghawi han. Hote kho dawk khuika lawk hoi hramki lawk bout thai mahoeh toe.
And I will be glad over Jerusalem, and have joy in my people: and the voice of weeping will no longer be sounding in her, or the voice of grief.
20 Hote kho dawk a kum kanaw e awm mahoeh. A kum kakuep hoeh e matawng hai awm mahoeh. A kum 100 touh a pha nah kadout e hah camo telah pouk han. Ka yon e tami teh a kum 100 touh a pha nah dout pawiteh, thoebo e tami telah pouk han.
No longer will there be there a child whose days are cut short, or an old man whose days have not come to their full measure: for the young man at his death will be a hundred years old, and he whose life is shorter than a hundred years will seem as one cursed.
21 Ahnimouh teh ma ni sak e im dawk ao awh han. Ma ni patue e misur paw a ca awh han.
And they will be building houses and living in them; planting vine-gardens and getting the fruit of them.
22 Ahnimouh teh ma ni sak e im hah alouke ni awm nah awh mahoeh. Ahnimouh teh misur a patue e hah alouke ni cat mahoeh. Ka taminaw e hringnae teh thingkung se patetlah a saw vaiteh, ahnimouh teh ma ni sak e hno hah moikasawlah a hno awh han.
They will no longer be building for the use of others, or planting for others to have the fruit: for the days of my people will be like the days of a tree, and my loved ones will have joy in full measure in the work of their hands.
23 Ka rawi e naw teh, ayawmyin lah tawk awh mahoeh. A kum kaduem e capa khe awh mahoeh. Ma koehoi kamtawng teh, catounnaw teh, BAWIPA ni poe e yawhawinae ka pang e tami lah ao awh han.
Their work will not be for nothing, and they will not give birth to children for destruction; for they are a seed to whom the Lord has given his blessing, and their offspring will be with them.
24 Ahnimouh ni na kaw hoehnahlan ka pato han. A dei awh lahun nah ka thai pouh han.
And before they make their request I will give an answer, and while they are still making prayer to me, I will give ear.
25 Asui hoi tuca teh cungtalah rei a pai han toe. Sendek ni maito patetlah hram a ca han. Tahrun teh vaiphu a ca han toe. Kaie mon kathoung pueng dawk buet touh hoi buet touh pacekpahleknae, kâraphoenae awm mahoeh toe telah BAWIPA ni a ti.
The wolf and the lamb will take their food together, and the lion will make a meal of grass like the ox: but dust will be the snake's food. There will be no cause of pain or destruction in all my holy mountain, says the Lord.
