< 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 shown myself to those who did not ask for me. I was found by those who did not seek me. I said, 'Here I am. Here I am.' to a nation that did not call on my name.
2 Amamouh ngai patetlah kahawihoehe lam ka dawn niteh, kangek e miphunnaw koelah, kanîruirui ka kut kadai pouh han.
All day long I have stretched out my hands to a disobedient and obstinate people, who walk in a way that is not good, following their own thoughts;
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 provoke me to my face continually as they sacrifice in gardens and burn incense 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 sit among the graves, and lodge in the secret places; who eat pig's flesh, and the broth of abominable things is 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 your distance, do not come near to me, for I am holier than you.' These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all the 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
"Look, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, yes, I will recompense into their bosom,
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.
your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together," says YHWH, "who have burned incense on the mountains, and blasphemed me on the hills; therefore I will first measure their work into their bosom."
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.
Thus says YHWH, "As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, 'Do not destroy it, for a blessing is in it:' so will I do for my servants' sake, that I may not destroy 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 bring forth offspring from Jacob, and from Judah they shall inherit my mountains; and my chosen shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
10 Kai na ka tawng e taminaw hanelah, Sharon teh tutakha lah ao han. Akhor yawn hai maitohu roenae hmuen lah ao han.
Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the Valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down in, for my people who have sought 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 you who forsake YHWH, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Fortune, and who fill up mixed wine to Destiny;
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.
I will destine you to the sword, and you shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, you did not answer; when I spoke, you did not listen; but you did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I did not delight."
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.
Therefore thus says YHWH, "Look, my servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; look, my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; look, my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be disappointed;
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.
look, my servants shall sing in gladness of heart, but you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall wail for anguish of 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.
You shall leave your name for a curse to my chosen; and YHWH will kill you; but he will call his servants by 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 blesses himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden 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, look, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things shall not be remembered, nor come into 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 be you glad and rejoice forever in that which I create; for, look, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, 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.
I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people; and there shall be heard in her no more the voice of weeping and the voice of crying.
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.
"There shall be no more there an infant of days, nor an old man who has not filled his days; for the child shall die one hundred years old, and the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed.
21 Ahnimouh teh ma ni sak e im dawk ao awh han. Ma ni patue e misur paw a ca awh han.
They shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
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 shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree shall be the days of my people, and my chosen shall long enjoy 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.
They shall not labor in vain, nor bring forth for calamity; for they are the descendants of the blessed of YHWH, and their offspring with them.
24 Ahnimouh ni na kaw hoehnahlan ka pato han. A dei awh lahun nah ka thai pouh han.
It shall happen that, before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
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 shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox; and dust shall be the serpent's food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain," says YHWH.
