Isaiah 59
1 Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor His ear too dull to hear.
Ngaijin! Pakai ban chu nangma huhhing dinga tha lhom’a ahipon, nakouna aw jong chu ajah louna dinga chutia na ngong’a ahidehpoi.
2 But your iniquities have built barriers between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He does not hear.
Na chonsetna ho’u hin nangho toh Pathen kikah akhen ahi. Na chonset jeh’u chun, aman amai aheimang leh na taonau angailou ahitai.
3 For your hands are stained with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, and your tongue mutters injustice.
Na khut hou chu mithana khut ahi bouvin, chule na khut jung hou namset chu chonset bolna ahi. Na kam’uva hungpot jong jouseina dim ahin, chule nakam paovu jong manlou thu ngensen potna ahi.
4 No one calls for justice; no one pleads his case honestly. They rely on empty pleas; they tell lies; they conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity.
Koima dat neilouva thutah sei le lung theng gelkhoh aumpoi. Miho chung thu kitanna mun jong jou thuho bou aseiju ahi. Amahon thilse ageluvin, chonset ahin hing doh’uve.
5 They hatch the eggs of vipers and weave a spider’s web. Whoever eats their eggs will die; crack one open, and a viper is hatched.
Ama hon thina thei gulse-tui chu aop keo’uvin chule mom pan asa thei’uve. Hiche pan sunga lhalut chan chu thi ding chule amaho gahnai chan chu hamsetna’a lut thei ahi.
6 Their cobwebs cannot be made into clothing, and they cannot cover themselves with their works. Their deeds are sinful deeds, and acts of violence are in their hands.
Apan semu chu ponsil’a akimang theipon, chule athilbol’u jong imacha phatchomna tahbeh ahipoi. Achonna jouseu chonset adimset nin, chule minosop kiti hi amihi nau kihetna ahi.
7 Their feet run to evil; they are swift to shed innocent blood. Their thoughts are sinful thoughts; ruin and destruction lie in their wake.
Akeng phangu jong thilse bolna dingin alhaitho jengun, Chule amaho mithana dingin akal jangun ahi. Chonset bol ding bou agel gelun ahi. Lungkhamna le manthahna’in amaho ajui jinguve.
8 The way of peace they have not known, and there is no justice in their tracks. They have turned them into crooked paths; no one who treads on them will know peace.
Cham-lungmonna hoilaija kimu ding ahi ahepouvin, thil adih’abol le apha bol di jong ahetapouve.
9 Therefore justice is far from us, and righteousness does not reach us. We hope for light, but there is darkness; for brightness, but we walk in gloom.
Hiti chun eimaho lah’a thu adih’a tan kiti hi aum theipon, chule hinkho adih’a man hi ipi ahi ihepouve. Vah iveuvin, hinla muthim bou imuve. Van dangvah iveuvin, hinla athim’a ium’uve.
10 Like the blind, we feel our way along the wall, groping like those without eyes. We stumble at midday as in the twilight; among the vigorous we are like the dead.
Eiho mitcho bangin banga ikimai’uvin, mit neilou ho tobang'in ilam piu idon jot’uve. Sun nisa emlai jin jong muthimpet tobang'in eiho ikipal’uvin ahi. Mihing gam'a iumlai’un jong athisa tobangbep ihiuve.
11 We all growl like bears and moan like doves. We hope for justice, but find none, for salvation, but it is far from us.
Eiho vompi gilkel tobang'in ikitum’uvin, chule lunghel na’a dim vakhu bangin imao’uve. Thu adih’a tan igaldot’uvin, hinla ahung hih beh in; eipan hu ding igaldot’un, hinla hichu eihoa konin gamla tah ahunghi.
12 For our transgressions are multiplied before You, and our sins testify against us. Our transgressions are indeed with us, and we know our iniquities:
Ajeh iham itileh ichonset nahou Pathen masanga akisethop jengin chule hichun eiho eidouna akiphongdoh’in ahi. Henge, itobanga chonset bol ihiu ikihet’uve.
13 rebelling and denying the LORD, turning away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering lies from the heart.
Eihon Pakai douna le aseilep ma ipan’u ikihetdoh uvin ahi. Eihon I Pathen’u nungsuna ihitauve. Eihon ichan geija kilomlou tah le kidouna lung pua ihiuvem ti chingthei tah’a duha thuh tah’a jou jeng seija ihiu ikihet’uve.
14 So justice is turned away, and righteousness stands at a distance. For truth has stumbled in the public square, and honesty cannot enter.
Ithutan nau munna chondihna idoudal’un, chule thu adih’a tanna akimu tapoi. Thutah chu lam lenna akiboso in, lungthenna jong dan kalval akihisah tai.
15 Truth is missing, and whoever turns from evil becomes prey. The LORD looked and was displeased that there was no justice.
Ahinai, thutah chu achemangin, chule aphalou hotbol chan chu akinokhum khumtai. Pakaiyin ahinven, thu adih’a kitanlou chu alung himo lheh jenge.
16 He saw that there was no man; He was amazed that there was no one to intercede. So His own arm brought salvation, and His own righteousness sustained Him.
Mi khatbeh’in jong akibolsepa pan hu dinga Ama’n amudoh joulou chu adatmo lheh jenge. Hitia hi akibolse chu panpi ding le aban thahatna huhdoh dinga Amatah hung kalsonga ahitai.
17 He put on righteousness like a breastplate, and the helmet of salvation on His head; He put on garments of vengeance and wrapped Himself in a cloak of zeal.
Amahin chonphatna chu atahsa galmanchah dinga omphoa aneija chule huhhingna lukhuh chu alua akikhuh ahije. Amatah melma phuba lahna galvonna akivonin, chule Pathen khotona chu sangkholchol ‘in Amatah akivontai.
18 So He will repay according to their deeds: fury to His enemies, retribution to His foes, and recompense to the islands.
Ama hin amelmate chu athilse abolnau lethuh intin, Alunghanna chu adougal te chunga hung chu ding ahi. Amaho chu leiset kolmong geija lethuhna apeh ding ahi.
19 So shall they fear the name of the LORD where the sun sets, and His glory where it rises. For He will come like a raging flood, driven by the breath of the LORD.
Lhumlam gam'a miho chun Pakai min chu ajabol dingu, solama Ama choi’atna apeh dingu ahi. Ajeh iham itileh Ama twisoh lai twi kinong tobanga Pakaijin ahu ahin semdoh ding ahi.
20 “The Redeemer will come to Zion, to those in Jacob who turn from transgression,”
Lhatdampu chu Jerusalem’a hung ding Israel sunga achonset nauva konna lungheiho chu anungchoh doh ding ahije, tin Pakaiyin aseije.
21 “As for Me, this is My covenant with them,” says the LORD. “My Spirit will not depart from you, and My words that I have put in your mouth will not depart from your mouth or from the mouths of your children and grandchildren, from now on and forevermore,” says the LORD.
Chule Pakaiyin hiche hi kakitepna hiding ahi:” Ka Lhagaovin amaho dalha tapontin, chule chuche thuho kapehlou beh hija ahi. Hiche thuho chu nangma kamsungle na chapa teu kamsung'a chule na tuteu kamsung'a a’itih’a umjing ding ahi, tin Keima Pakai kitipa hin kaphondoh ahitai.
