< Esias 46 >
1 Bel has fallen, Nabo is broken to pieces, their graven images are gone to the wild beasts and the cattle: ye take them packed up as a burden to the weary, exhausted, hungry, and [at the same time] helpless man;
Bel ni a lû a saling teh, Nebo a kârahnoum sak. Ahnimae meikaphawknaw teh, a khok pali touh e saring e van doeh a hung awh. Na phu rumram hanelah doeh sak e lah ao teh, saringnaw ni nget ka tâwn lah a phu awh.
2 who will not be able to save themselves from war, but they themselves are led [away] captive.
A kârahnoum awh teh, rei a rawp awh. Amamae hnokari kârungngang thai awh hoeh. Amamanaw san lah letlang a ceikhai awh.
3 Hear me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of Israel, who are borne [by me] from the womb, and taught [by me] from infancy, [even] to old age:
Oe Jakop imthungnaw ka lawk thai awh haw. Ka cawi rae imthungnaw, pek na khe hoi vonthung na o na hoi doeh kai ni na tawm toe.
4 I am [he]; and until ye shall have grown old, I am [he]: I bear you, I have made, and I will relieve, I will take up and save you.
Na matawng totouh hai na sam a po ditouh, kai teh hot patetlah e tami lah ka o teh, nangmanaw na tawm awh han, na sak awh e patetlah na ring awh vaiteh, na rungngang awh han.
5 To whom have ye compared me? see, consider, ye that go astray.
Nangmouh ni api hoi maw na mei na kâla sak awh han. Api hoi maw na kâvan sak awh teh, api hoi maw na bangnue awh han.
6 They that furnish gold out of a purse, and silver by weight, will weigh it in a scale, and they hire a goldsmith and make idols, and bow down, and worship them.
Yawngya thung hoi sui moikapap rasa e patetlah ngun hai yawcu dawk a khing, sum kahlun e koe meikaphawk lah na sak sak awh teh, na tabo sin awh teh na bawk awh.
7 They bear it upon the shoulder, and go; and if they put it upon its place, it remains, it cannot move: and whosoever shall cry to it, it cannot hear; it cannot save him from trouble.
A loung dawk a hrawm awh teh, a ceikhai awh teh, amae hmuen dawk ouk a pâhung awh. Pou a kangdue teh, a onae hmuen koehoi kampuen mahoeh toe. A kaw awh nakunghai lawk dei pouh thai mahoeh. A rucatnae koehoi hai rungngang thai mahoeh.
8 Remember ye these things, and groan: repent, ye that have gone astray, return in your heart;
Oe lawk kaeknaw, hetheh pahnim awh hanh. Tongpa katang lah awm awh nateh, bout pouk awh.
9 and remember the former things [that were] of old: for I am God, and there is none other beside me,
Ayan e hno hah pahnim hanh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Kai teh na Cathut lah ka o teh, kai hloilah Cathut alouke awm hoeh. Kai hoi kâvan e awm hoeh.
10 telling beforehand the latter events before they come to pass, and they are accomplished together: and I said, all my counsel shall stand, and I will do all things that I have planned:
Kamtawngnae koehoi apout totouh thoseh, ayan hoi kaawm rah boihoeh e hnonaw thoseh, ka dei teh ka pouknae a kuep han, ka ngai e pueng be ka sak han telah a ti.
11 calling a bird from the east, and from a land afar off, for the things which I have planned: I have spoken, and brought [him]; I have created and made [him]; I have brought him, and prospered his way.
Kanîtholah hoi e ka matheng e tava, ahlanae hmuen koehoi ka pouk e hah ka kaw, yo ka dei e patetlah ka sak han.
12 Hearken to me, ye senseless ones, that are far from righteousness:
Lannae hoi ahla poungnae koe kaawmnaw ka lawk thai awh haw.
13 I have brought near my righteousness, and I will not be slow with the salvation that is from me: I have given salvation in Sion to Israel for glory.
Kahnaicalah lannae ka thokhai han. Ahla poungnae koe kaawm mahoeh. Rungngangnae, lungmanae nihai, na ring mahoeh. Zion vah rungngangnae ka ta vaiteh, ka bawilennae Isarel hanelah ka hruek han.
