Esias 43
1 And now thus saith the Lord God that made thee, O Jacob, and formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee [by] thy name; thou art mine.
Jakob nang aka suen tih Israel nang aka hlom Yahovah loh tahae ah tah, “Nang te kan tlan coeng dongah rhih boeh, nang te na ming neh kamah taengla kang khue coeng.
2 And if thou pass through water, I am with thee; and the rivers shall not overflow thee: and if thou go through fire, thou shalt not be burned; the flame shall not burn thee.
Tui te na kat vaengah nang taengah ka om vetih tuiva loh nang n'yo mahpawh. Hmai dongah na caeh vaengah na duih mahpawh. Hmaisai long khaw nang te n'dom mahpawh.
3 For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, that saves thee: I have made Egypt and Ethiopia thy ransom, and [given] Soene for thee.
Kai tah Yahovah na Pathen, Israel kah a cim ni. Nang kah khangnah ham nang yuengla, Egypt Kusa neh Seba taengah nang kah tlansum ka paek coeng.
4 Since thou becamest precious in my sight, thou hast become glorious, and I have loved thee: and I will give men for thee, and princes for thy life.
Ka mikhmuh ah na phutlo tih n'thangpom coeng. Kai khaw nang kan lungnah tih nang yueng la hlang taengah, na hinglu yueng te namtu taengah ka paek ni.
5 Fear not; for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and will gather thee from the west.
Nang taengah kang om puei dongah rhih boeh. Na tiingan te khocuk lamloh kam pawk puei vetih namah te khotlak lamloh kan coi ni.
6 I will say to the north, Bring; and to the south, Keep not back; bring my sons from the [land] afar off, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
tlangpuei taengah pae laeh, tuithim taengah khaw hloh boeh. Khohla lamkah ka ca rhoek neh ka tanu rhoek te diklai khobawt lamloh,
7 [even] all who are called by my name: for I have prepared him for my glory, and I have formed him, and have made him:
ka ming neh ka khue boeih te hang khuen,” ka ti ni. Kamah thangpomnah ham anih ka suen tih ka hlinsai tih ka saii bal.
8 and I have brought forth the blind people; for [their] eyes are alike blind, and they that have ears are deaf.
Mikdael mik neh hnapang hna aka om pilnam te khuen laeh.
9 All the nations are gathered together, and princes shall be gathered out of them: who will declare these things? or who will declare to you things from the beginning? let them bring forth their witnesses, and be justified; and let them hear, and declare the truth.
Namtom boeih te tun coi uh thae tih namtu rhoek khaw tingtun uh. Hekah he amih taengah unim aka puen tih lamhma kah te mamih taengah aka yaak sak. Amamih kah laipai te tloeng saeh lamtah tang uh saeh. Te vaengah ya uh saeh lamtah oltak te thui uh saeh.
10 Be ye my witnesses, and I [too am] a witness, saith the Lord God, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know, and believe, and understand that I am [he]: before me there was no other God, and after me there shall be none.
Nangmih tah kamah kah laipai rhoek ni. BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. Ka sal te khaw na ming uh tih kai nan tangnah uh ham ni ka tuek. Te daengah ni kai kamah mikhmuh ah pathen te poeh tarha pawt tih ka hnukah a om pawt ham khaw na yakming uh eh.
11 I am God; and beside me there is no Saviour.
Kai, kamah he Yahovah ni. Kai pawt atah khangnah om pawh.
12 I have declared, and have saved; I have reproached, and there was no strange [god] among you: ye are my witnesses, and I am the Lord God,
Kamah ka puen tih ka khang coeng. Ka yaak coeng dongah nangmih taengah kholong a om moenih. Nangmih tah kai laipai rhoek ni. “Kai tah Pathen ni” a ti he khaw BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
13 even from the beginning; and there is none that can deliver out of my hands: I will work, and who shall turn it back?
A tue khohnin dongah khaw kamah coeng hoeh, ka kut lamkah huul mahpawh. Ka saii phoeiah u long a balkhong thai eh?
14 Thus saith the Lord God that redeems you, the Holy One of Israel; for your sakes I will send to Babylon, and I will stir up all that flee, and the Chaldeans shall be bound in ships.
Nangmih aka tlan BOEIPA, Israel kah a cim loh, “Nangmih ham Babylon la ka tueih vetih amih neh amamih kah a tamlung nah sangpho dongah Khalden khaw rhalyong rhoek bangla boeih kan suntlak puei ni.
15 I am the Lord God, your Holy One, who have appointed for Israel your king.
Kai nangmih kah Yahovah cim, Israel aka suen, nangmih manghai ni,” a ti.
16 Thus saith the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty water;
Tuitunli ah longpuei aka khueh tih tui len dongah aka hawn BOEIPA loh,
17 who brought forth chariots and horse, and a mighty multitude: but they have lain down, and shall not rise: they are extinct, as quenched flax.
Rhenten yalh khungdaeng tih a thoh uh kolla, thut bangla thi tih aka duek leng neh tatthai marhang aka khuen loh,
18 Remember ye not the former things, and consider not the ancient things.
hnukbuet te poek voel boel lamtah yan kah te khaw thoelh uh boeh.
19 Behold, I [will] do new things, which shall presently spring forth, and ye shall know them: and I will make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land.
Kai loh a thai la ka saii te poe coeng he. Khosoek ah longpuei, khopong ah tuiva ka khueh te khaw na ming uh moenih a?
20 the beasts of the field shall bless me, the owls and young ostriches; for I have given water in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land, to give drink to my chosen race,
Ka coelh ka pilnam tul ham khopong kah tuiva tui te khosoek ah ka paek. Te dongah kohong mulhing pongui neh kalauk vanu loh kai n'thangpom.
21 my people whom I have preserved to tell forth my praises.
Kamah ham ka hlom pilnam loh kai koehnah mah tae uh saeh.
22 I have not now called thee, O Jacob; neither have I made thee weary, O Israel.
Tedae Jakob loh kai he nan khue pawt tih Israel loh kai ham na kohnue coeng.
23 Thou hast not brought me the sheep of thy whole-burnt-offering; neither hast thou glorified me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with sacrifices, neither have I wearied thee with frankincense.
Na hmueihhlutnah boiva te kai taengla nang khuen moenih. Na hmueih nen khaw kai nan thangpom moenih. Khocang nen khaw nang tho kan thueng sak pawt tih hmueihtui nen khaw nang kan kohnue sak moenih.
24 Neither hast thou purchased for me victims for silver, neither have I desired the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou didst stand before me in thy sins, and in thine iniquities.
Canhnam an te kai hamla tangka neh na lai moenih. Na hmueih tha nen khaw kai nan hmilhmal sak moenih. Tedae na tholhnah neh kai taengah tho na thueng tih, namah kathaesainah neh kai nan kohnue sak.
25 I, [even] I, am he that blots out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and thy sins; and I will not remember [them].
Kai, kamah loh kamah ham ni na boekoek ka khoe. Te dongah na tholhnah te ka thoelh moenih.
26 But do thou remember, and let us plead [together]: do thou first confess thy transgressions, that thou mayest be justified.
Kai he n'thoelh lah, laitloek rhenten lah sih, na tang te na tae lah mako.
27 Your fathers first, and your princes have transgressed against me.
Na pa cuek te tholh rhoe tih nang kah oldoe rhoek loh kai taengah boe a koek uh.
28 And the princes have defiled my sanctuaries: so I gave Jacob [to enemies] to destroy, and Israel to reproach.
Te dongah hmuencim mangpa te ka poeih vetih Jakob te yaehtaboeih la, Israel te honah la ka khueh ni,” a ti.
