Isaiah 52
1 Awake, awake! Put on your strength, Zion. Put on your beautiful garments, Jerusalem, the holy city, for from now on the uncircumcised and the unclean will no more come into you.
Haenghang laeh, haenghang laeh Zion nang loh sarhi tak sak. Khopuei cim Jerusalem nang boeimang himbai bai laeh. Na khuiah aka pawk ham pumdul neh rhalawt loh n'koei voel mahpawh.
2 Shake yourself from the dust! Arise, sit up, Jerusalem! Release yourself from the bonds of your neck, captive daughter of Zion!
Laipi te khoek laeh. Jerusalem aw thoo lamtah ngol laeh. Zion nu tamna aw na rhawn kah kuelrhui te hlam rhoe hlam laeh.
3 For the LORD says, “You were sold for nothing; and you will be redeemed without money.”
Te dongah BOEIPA loh, “A yoeyap la n'yoih uh tih tangka mueh lam ni n'tlan uh eh,” a ti.
4 For the Lord GOD says: “My people went down at the first into Egypt to live there; and the Assyrian has oppressed them without cause.
Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Lamhma ah tah ka pilnam loh Egypt ah bakuep pahoi ham suntla tih Assyria loh lungli lungla la anih te a hnaemtaek.
5 “Now therefore, what do I do here,” says the LORD, “seeing that my people are taken away for nothing? Those who rule over them mock,” says the LORD, “and my name is blasphemed continually all day long.
Tahae ah ba aih nim kai tloe tah, menim kai ham tah BOEIPA kah olphong lah ve? Ka pilnam te poeyoek la a khuen coeng. Anih aka taem la aka taem rhoek tah rhung uh coeng. BOEIPA kah olphong dae ta, nainoe taitu la hnin takuem ah kai ming a tlaitlaek.
6 Therefore my people shall know my name. Therefore they shall know in that day that I am he who speaks. Behold, it is I.”
Ka ming he ka pilnam loh ming tangloeng saeh. Tekah khohnin ah kamah loh, “Kai ni he,” ka ti tangloeng coeng.
7 How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news, who proclaims salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”
Rhoepnah aka phong tih aka yaak sak, a then aka phong tih khangnah aka yaak sak, Zion taengah, “Na Pathen tah manghai coeng,” aka ti nah kah a khokan tah tlang soah khaw damyal tangkik mai.
8 Your watchmen lift up their voice. Together they sing; for they shall see eye to eye when the LORD returns to Zion.
Na rhaltawt rhoek kah ol tah ol pakhat la huek a huel uh tih tamhoe uh. BOEIPA te Zion la a mael vaengah tah a mik, mik ah so uh thae ni.
9 Break out into joy! Sing together, you waste places of Jerusalem; for the LORD has comforted his people. He has redeemed Jerusalem.
Jerusalem imrhong rhoek tun pang uh lamtah tamhoe uh. BOEIPA loh a pilnam a hloep tih Jerusalem a tlan coeng.
10 The LORD has made his holy arm bare in the eyes of all the nations. All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
Namtom boeih kah mikhmuh ah BOEIPA loh a ban cim te a lam vetih diklai khobawt ah mamih Pathen kah khangnah te boeih a hmuh uh ni.
11 Depart! Depart! Go out from there! Touch no unclean thing! Go out from among her! Cleanse yourselves, you who carry the LORD’s vessels.
Nong uh laeh, nong uh lamtah te lamloh coe uh laeh. Rhalawt te ben boeh, a khui lamloh nong laeh. BOEIPA kah hnopai aka phuei long tah meet uh.
12 For you shall not go out in haste, neither shall you go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
Tokrhat la coe boel lamtah yonglong khaw hmaai boeh. Nangmih mikhmuh ah aka cet BOEIPA neh Israel Pathen loh nang ng'khoem ta.
13 Behold, my servant will deal wisely. He will be exalted and lifted up, and will be very high.
Ka sal loh a cangbam bitni. Amah te a pomsang vetih a ludoeng vaengah bahoeng sang bitni.
14 Just as many were astonished at you— his appearance was marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men—
Nang taengah muep a hal uh vanbangla a hmuethma khaw hlang lakah, a suisak hlang ca rhoek lakah poeih uh tangloeng coeng.
15 so he will cleanse many nations. Kings will shut their mouths at him; for they will see that which had not been told them, and they will understand that which they had not heard.
Namtom rhoek khaw anih kongah a haeh muep vetih manghai rhoek loh a ka a buem uh ni. Amih taengah a doek pah pawt te khaw a hmuh uh vetih a yaak uh noek pawt te a yakming uh ni.
