Isaiah 57
1 The righteous perish, and no one takes it to heart; devout men are swept away, while no one considers that the righteous are guided from the presence of evil.
Mipha ho hinkho abeiyin; Pathen ngaisah aphat lhing louvin athi jiuve. Hinla koiman ipi jeh’ ham ti gelkhoh’a ahilouleh datmoa aumpouve. Ahivangin, koiman phat phalou lhung ding a kona Pathen’in alah uhinte, ti gel’a koima aumpoi.
2 Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest, lying down in death.
Pathen ngaisahna lampi a cheho chu hung thi jonguleh lungmonga choldo ding ahiuve.
3 “But come here, you sons of a sorceress, you offspring of adulterers and prostitutes!
Hinla nangho doichoi ho chate, jon bol pasal ho le numei kijoh chilhah ho- hikoma hin hung khom’uvin!
4 Whom are you mocking? At whom do you snarl and stick out your tongue? Are you not children of transgression, offspring of deceit,
Koi douna’a kigoa nahiuva? Koi douna’a namai’u najep pol’uva chule kamka’a lei lhadoh’a nahiu vem? Nangho chonset bol ho chate le jousei hat chate nahiu ve!
5 who burn with lust among the oaks, under every luxuriant tree, who slaughter your children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks?
Nanghon khongnang phungho le thingphung hing bultina nalim -semthu hou chu nagel khoh lheh’uve. Nanghon phaicham dung hoa songpia konna kitandoh ho chunga nachateu chu kilhainan natoh doh’uvin ahi. Keima kahitapon, amaho joh chu nagou chin’u ahitai. Hiche nabol’hou jouse hin keima hi kipah inte nei tiu ham?
6 Your portion is among the smooth stones of the valley; indeed, they are your lot. Even to them you have poured out a drink offering and offered a grain offering. Should I relent because of these?
Phaicham mun hoa song jolsel ho chu na-pathen ‘u ahin, amaho chu nanghon Pathen houva nahou’uva kikatdohna don ding thilto nalhei lhauvin chule anneh thiltoho natohdoh’uvin ahi. Amaho chu na gouchan diu ahitai, Keima kahitapoi. Hiche nabol ho’u hin Keima hi kipah inte neitiu hija ham?
7 On a high and lofty hill you have made your bed, and there you went up to offer sacrifices.
Nanghon molsang tinna jon-thanhoina nabol tauve. Chuche mun hoa chun nanghon milim nahou’uvin, Keima dinga kitahna bei nahiu ahitai.
8 Behind the door and doorpost you have set up your memorial. Forsaking Me, you uncovered your bed; you climbed up and opened it wide. And you have made a pact with those whose bed you have loved; you have gazed upon their nakedness.
Nanghon lim-semthu houho melchihnaho chu na kotkhom ho’uva le na kotnung’uva natah’uvin, Keima nei dalhauvin, hiche pathenna neidia thet umtah ho chu nakichoijun, lupna nakaldoh piuvin ahi. Nanghon sagoh-keuva um semthu-milim chu lung ngaichatnin naveuvin, nangho tah nakipedoh jenguve.
9 You went to Molech with oil and multiplied your perfumes. You have sent your envoys a great distance; you have descended even to Sheol itself. (Sheol h7585)
Nanghon Olive thao chu semthu-pathen (Molech-pathen)’a chun thao namtui pumin napedohtauve. Nangman naphahna thei chana, vannoi mithigam geijin, Pathen thah ngailut ding hollin nakalsongin ahi. (Sheol h7585)
10 You are wearied by your many journeys, but you did not say, “There is no hope!” You found renewal of your strength; therefore you did not grow weak.
Na thilholna’a na cholta lheh’in, hinla na ngahnompoi. Ngaichat chun thahatna thah napen, na lhadah hihlaije.
11 Whom have you dreaded and feared, so that you lied and failed to remember Me or take this to heart? Is it not because I have long been silent that you do not fear Me?
Hiche lim-kisemthu hohi nakichat ham? Amaho hin natijat sah em? Hiche jeh’a hi nangman keima jouva neibol’a chule nei suhmil’a chule ka thuseiho nasuhmil gam hitam? Keima kathipsot behseh tah jeh’a hi nei ginlou hitam?
12 I will expose your righteousness and your works, and they will not profit you.
Tua hi keiman thilpha bol’a na kigelnaho hi kasosal ding nahitai. Hiho chun na panpi lou dingu ahije.
13 When you cry out, let your companies of idols deliver you! Yet the wind will carry off all of them, a breath will take them away. But he who seeks refuge in Me will inherit the land and possess My holy mountain.”
Panpi na ngaichatna nakou teng hiche limsemthu- pathen ho chun na panpiu vem veuhite. Ipi itidan'a huisi hung nung chun amaho amutlhuh ahidem! Achunguva nahaigin ajah’ujongleh aginna lhu jengu hin tem! Hinla koi hijongleh eitahsan mi chun gam chu aloding chule Ka lhangtheng chu aloding ahi.
14 And it will be said, “Build it up, build it up, prepare the way, take every obstacle out of the way of My people.”
Pathen’in, lamlen chu semphauvin, ati! Kamite chu asohchan nauva ahung kilekitna dinguvin lampia songpi ho le songho suthengun.
15 For thus says the One who is high and lifted up, who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in a high and holy place, and with the oppressed and humble in spirit, to restore the spirit of the lowly and revive the heart of the contrite.
Sangtah le achungnungpenpa, tonsotna hing jingpa chun, hiche hi aseije:”Keima munsang le achungnungpen’a ka um'in, a lhagao ki sehgima chule akineosah hoto kaum khome. Keiman mi kineosah ho ka kiledohsah kitnin chule lungchang kisih ho lung ngamna kalepeh in ahi.
16 For I will not accuse you forever, nor will I always be angry; for then the spirit of man would grow weak before Me, with the breath of those I have made.
Ajeh iham itileh nangho chunga doulung kaput jing ding ahipon; keima lung hang jing ding kahipoi. Chuti ding hileng, kasemsa mihemte hi abonchauva thigam diu ahitai.
17 I was enraged by his sinful greed, so I struck him and hid My face in anger; yet he kept turning back to the desires of his heart.
Kalung ana hanga, hijeh’a hi hiche mite hi ka gimbol ahi. Keima amahoa konin kakikhin kangin, ahijeng vang'in alouchal nau ajom jing nalaijuve.
18 I have seen his ways, but I will heal him; I will guide him and restore comfort to him and his mourners,
Amahon ipi abol’u kamunai, hijongleh kaboldam ding hitante! Ken amaho pui jingting, alhaseteho kalhamon ding ahi.
19 bringing praise to their lips. Peace, peace to those far and near,” says the LORD, “and I will heal them.”
Pakai, amaho damsahpa’n aseije: Agamla le anaija hon lungmonna lhingset nei’uhen; akam’uva vahchoina thucheng hinlhut ‘uhen, ati.
20 But the wicked are like the storm-tossed sea, for it cannot be still, and its waves churn up mire and muck.
Hijongleh, Keima eidoubol jing ho chu twikhanglen kinong, umthim theilouva, bonnang le aphon-nen hin notdoh tobangbep ahiuve.
21 “There is no peace,” says my God, “for the wicked.”
“Agiloupa dingin lungmonna aumpoi,” tin ka Pathen’in aseije.
