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 inquired of by those who asked not, I have been found by those who sought Me not, I have said, 'Behold Me, behold Me,' Unto a nation not calling in My name.
2 Amamouh ngai patetlah kahawihoehe lam ka dawn niteh, kangek e miphunnaw koelah, kanîruirui ka kut kadai pouh han.
I have spread out My hands all the day Unto an apostate people, Who are going in the way not good after 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.
The people who are provoking Me to anger, To My face continually, Sacrificing in gardens, and making perfume on the 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 dwelling among sepulchres, And lodge in reserved places, Who are eating flesh of the sow, And a piece of abominable things — 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 are saying, 'Keep to thyself, come not nigh to me, For I have declared thee unholy.' These [are] a smoke in Mine anger, A fire burning 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
Lo, it is written before Me: 'I am not silent, but have recompensed; And I have recompensed 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 iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, said Jehovah, Who have made perfume on the mountains, And on the heights have reproached Me, And I have measured their former 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 said Jehovah: As the new wine is found in the cluster, And one hath said, 'Destroy it not for a blessing [is] in it,' So I do for My servants' sake, not to destroy the whole.
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 have brought out from Jacob a seed, And from Judah a possessor of My mount, And possess it do My chosen ones, And My servants do 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.
And Sharon hath been for the habitation of a flock, And the valley of Achor for the lying down of a herd, 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.
And ye [are] those forsaking Jehovah, Who are forgetting My holy mountain, Who are setting in array for Gad a table, And who are filling for Meni a mixture.
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.
And I have numbered you for the sword, And all of you for slaughter bow down, Because I called, and ye have not answered, I have spoken, and ye have not hearkened, And ye do the evil thing in Mine eyes, And on that which I desired not — fixed.
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 said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, My servants do eat, and ye do hunger, Lo, My servants do drink, and ye do thirst, Lo, My servants rejoice, and ye are ashamed,
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.
Lo, My servants sing from joy of heart, And ye cry from pain of heart, And from breaking of spirit ye do howl.
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 ye have left your name For an oath for My chosen ones, And the Lord Jehovah hath put thee to death, And to His servants He giveth 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 blessing himself in the earth, Doth bless himself In the God of faithfulness, And he who is swearing in the earth, Doth swear by the God of faithfulness, Because the former distresses have been forgotten, And because they have been hid from Mine eyes.
17 Khenhaw! Kalvan katha hoi talai katha hah ka sak. Ahmaloe e kalvan hoi talai hah pouk mahoeh, pâkuem mahoeh toe.
For, lo, I am creating new heavens, and a new earth, And the former things are not remembered, Nor do they ascend on the heart.
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 joy ye, and rejoice for ever, that I [am] Creator, For, lo, I am creating 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.
And I have rejoiced in Jerusalem, And have joyed in My people, And not heard in her any more Is 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 is not thence any more a suckling of days, And an aged man who doth not complete his days, For the youth a hundred years old dieth, And the sinner, a hundred years old, is lightly esteemed.
21 Ahnimouh teh ma ni sak e im dawk ao awh han. Ma ni patue e misur paw a ca awh han.
And they have built houses, and inhabited, And planted vineyards, and eaten 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 do not build, and another inhabit, They do not plant, and another eat, For as the days of a tree [are] the days of My people, And the work of their hands wear out do My chosen ones.
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 labour not for a vain thing, Nor do they bring forth for trouble, For the seed of the blessed of Jehovah [are] they, And their offspring with them.
24 Ahnimouh ni na kaw hoehnahlan ka pato han. A dei awh lahun nah ka thai pouh han.
And it hath come to pass, They do not yet call, and I answer, They are yet speaking, and I 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.
Wolf and lamb do feed as one, And a lion as an ox eateth straw, As to the serpent — dust [is] its food, They do no evil, nor destroy, In all My holy mountain, said Jehovah!
