Isaiah 66
1 BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, kalvan teh ka tahungnae bawitungkhung lah ao teh, talai teh ka khoktoungnae lah ao. Namaw im na sak pouh awh han. Namaw ka kâhatnae hmuen ao han.
Thus hath said the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is there a house that ye can build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?
2 Bangkongtetpawiteh, hete hnocawngca pueng teh, ka kut hoi ka sak teh, kaawmnaw doeh telah BAWIPA ni ati. Hateiteh, ka roedeng naw hoi muitha hoi pankângai e tami, ka lawk dawk ka pâyaw e tami hah ka khet han.
For all these things hath my hand made, that all these things came into being, saith the Lord; but upon such a one will I look, upon the poor, and him who is of a contrite spirit, and who trembleth at my word.
3 Maitotan ka thet e tami teh, tami ka thet e patetlah ao han. Tuca hoi thuengnae ka sak e tami teh, ui lahuen ka khoe e patetlah ao han. Tavai ka poe e tami teh, vok thi ka poe e patetlah ao han. Hmuitui ka thueng e tami teh, meikaphawk yawhawi ka poe e patetlah ao han. Mahoima lamthung ka kârawi e tami teh, panuettho e hno dawk a lungkahawi e patetlah ao han.
He that slaughtereth the ox, slayeth a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, breaketh the neck of a dog; he that offereth a meat-offering, [offereth] swine's blood; he that burneth incense, blesseth an idol: yea, they have made choice of their own ways, and in their abominations doth their soul delight.
4 Hottelah amahoima ka kâdum e hah ka rawi han. A taki e hno hah ahnimae lathueng ka pha sak han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka kaw nah apinihai na pato hoeh. Lawk ka dei teh thai awh hoeh. Hateiteh, ka mithmu vah, yonnae a sak awh teh, ka lunghawihoehnae hno hah a kârawi awh.
So will I also make choice of their misfortune, and what they dread will I bring upon them; because I called, and none did answer; I spoke, and they did not hear; and they did what is evil in my eyes, and that in which I delighted not did they choose.
5 A lawk dawk ka pâyaw e naw, BAWIPA lawk thai awh haw. Nang ka hmuhma e na hmaunawngha, ka min kecu dawk nangmouh kahreknaw ni, na lunghawinae ka hmu thai awh nahanelah, BAWIPA teh pholennae awm seh telah ati awh, hateiteh a kaya awh han.
Hear the word of the Lord, ye that tremble at his word: Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for the sake of my name, said, “Let the Lord be glorified;” but he will appear to your joy, and they shall be made ashamed.
6 Khopui dawk hoi ruengruengtinae, Bawkim dawk hoi hramnae pawlawk, BAWIPA hramnae pawlawk, a tarannaw kakueplah moi a pathungnae pawlawk teh thai awh haw.
[There is] a voice of tumult from the city, a voice from the temple, the voice of the Lord who rendereth recompense to his enemies.
7 A pataw hoehnahlan a khe teh, von a pataw hoehnahlan camo a khe.
Before she had travailed she brought forth; before yet her pain was come, she was delivered of a man-child.
8 Hot patet e teh apinimaw a thai boi. Hot patet e teh apinimaw a hmu boi. Hnin touh dawk hoi ram hah khe thai han na maw. Vaitalahoi miphun a tâco thai han na maw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Zion ni a pataw tahma nah camo tang a khe.
Who hath heard the like? who hath seen such things? shall a land be made to travail in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? that Zion hath travailed, also brought forth her children?
9 Khenae tueng dawk tâcawt sak laipalah, ka o han na maw, telah BAWIPA ni ati. Ca khesakkung ni ca tawn sak hanelah pasoung laipalah ka o han maw, telah Cathut ni a ti.
Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the Lord; or shall I who cause to bring forth, now prevent it? saith thy God.
10 Jerusalem ka lungpataw pueng, Jerusalem teh konawm khai awh. Ama kakhuinaw a ma lunghawikhai nateh konawm awh.
Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be delighted over her, all ye that love her; be highly glad with her, all ye that mourn for her.
11 Hottelah na teh awh pawiteh, ahnie sanu na net awh vaiteh na boum awh han. Ahnie tawnta e thung hoi rasat vaiteh, na nawm awh han.
In order that ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breast of her consolations; in order that ye may sip, and find pleasure from the abundance of her glory.
12 BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, roumnae palang patetlah thoseh, Jentelnaw e tawnta e teh ka lawng e tuiphuek tui patetlah thoseh, Jerusalem vah ka pha sak han. Nangmouh teh sanutui na net awh vaiteh, keng dawk tawmnae, khokpakhu dawk tawmnae hah na coe awh han.
For thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will extend to her peace like a river, and like a rapid stream the glory of nations, that ye may suck: upon the arm shall ye be borne, and upon knees shall ye be dandled.
13 A manu ni a ca lung a mawng sak e patetlah nangmouh lung ka mawng sak han. Jerusalem khopui dawk lung na mawng sak awh han.
As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and in Jerusalem shall ye be comforted.
14 Hote na hmu awh toteh, na lung ahawi awh han. Na hrunaw hah ka hringsuep e thingkung patetlah a thao awh han. BAWIPA e a kut hnotithainae teh sannaw koe thoseh, a lungkhueknae teh a tarannaw koe a kamnue han.
And ye shall see this, and your heart shall be glad, and your bones shall flourish like the grass; and then will be known the hand of the Lord on his servants, and he will be indignant toward his enemies.
15 Khenhaw! a lungphuennae ka patawpoung lah a kamnue nahane hoi, na yuenae hmaisaan patetlah a kamnue nahanelah, BAWIPA teh hmai rangleng hoi bongparui patetlah a tho han.
For, behold, the Lord will come with fire, and his chariots will be like the storm-wind, to send forth his anger with fury, and his threatening with flames of fire.
16 Bangkongtetpawiteh, hmai hoi tahloi hoi, BAWIPA ni takthai hoi kahringnaw pueng lawk a ceng han. BAWIPA ni a thei e teh a pap poung han.
For by fire will the Lord judge, and by his sword against all flesh: and many shall be the slain of the Lord.
17 Mahoima kâthoung sak hane hoi, mahoima kâkapek hanelah, takha koe kacetnaw, meikaphawknaw rahak vah, pou ka cet e, vokmoi hoi panuettho e moihnam moi ka cat e naw pueng cungtalah he a kahma awh han telah BAWIPA ni a ti.
They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves for the gardens, behind one tree in the midst, they who eat the flesh of the swine, and the abomination, and the mouse, together shall they perish, saith the Lord.
18 Bangkongtetpawiteh, a sak awh e hoi a pouk awh e ka panue, miphun tangkuem hoi lawk phunkuep tangkuem hah, ka pâkhuengnae tueng a pha han. Tho awh vaiteh ka bawilennae hah a hmu awh han.
And I, because of their works and their thoughts, will let it come to pass to gather all the nations and tongues; and they shall come, and shall see my glory.
19 Ahnimouh koe kamnuenae hah ka o sak han. Hahoi teh, ahnimouh rahak vah, rektapnae koehoi ka hlout e ka miphun tangkuem koe, Tarshish, Pul, licung longkawi e Lud, Tubal hoi Javan, ka min kamthangnae ka panuek boihoeh e naw koe, tuipui namran ahlanae koe ka thak han. Hottelah, Jentelnaw koe ka bawilennae a pâpho awh han.
And I will display a sign on them, and I will send from them those that escape unto the nations, Tharshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, Thubal, and Javan, the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, and have not seen my glory; and they shall proclaim my glory among the nations.
20 Hahoi Isarelnaw ni, kathounge hlaam hah thueng e hno lah BAWIPA e im dawk ouk a thokhai e patetlah miphunnaw pueng thung dawk hai na hmaunawnghanaw hah marang dawk hoi thoseh, leng dawk hoi thoseh, kâkayawt e van hoi thoseh, la dawk hoi thoseh, kalauk dawk hoi thoseh, Jerusalem mon kathoung dawk BAWIPA koe ouk a thueng awh e patetlah a thokhai awh han telah BAWIPA ni a ti.
And they shall bring all your brethren out of all nations as an offering unto the Lord, upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon dromedaries, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the Lord, as the children of Israel bring the offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.
21 Hotnaw thung dawk hoi tami tangawn vaihma hoi Levihnaw hanelah ka la han telah BAWIPA ni a ti.
And of them also will I take for priests and for Levites, saith the Lord.
22 Bangkongtetpawiteh, kalvan katha hoi talai katha ka sak hane teh, ka hmalah ka kangning hane patetlah, na catounnaw hoi na min a kangning han telah BAWIPA ni a ti.
For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall have permanence before me, saith the Lord, so shall exist permanently your seed and your name.
23 Hahoi teh, hettelah han. Thapa a reinae koehoi bout a rei katha totouh, sabbath hnin hoi alouke sabbath hnin totouh moithangnaw pueng Kai bawk hanelah ka hmalah a tho awh han telah BAWIPA ni a ti.
And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to the other new moon, and from one sabbath to the other sabbath, shall all flesh come to prostrate themselves before me, saith the Lord.
24 Tâcawt awh vaiteh, kai taranlahoi kâ kaeknaw e ro hah a khet awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, pâri hai dout thai hoeh ni teh hmai hai roum thai mahoeh. Tami pueng hanelah teh panuet a tho han.
And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me; for their worm shall not die, nor shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorrence unto all flesh.
