Esias 48
1 Hear these [words], you house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and have come forth out of Juda, who swear by the name of the Lord God of Israel, making mention [of it, but] not with truth, nor with righteousness;
Israel ming la a khue Jakob imkhui neh Judah tui lamkah aka thoeng tih Yahovah ming neh aka toemngam rhoek loh hnatun uh. Israel Pathen a phoei uh khaw oltak nen pawt tih duengnah nen bal moenih.
2 maintaining also the name of the holy city, and staying themselves on the God of Israel: the Lord of hosts is his name. The former things I have already declared;
Khopuei cim lamloh khue uh tih Israel Pathen, caempuei BOEIPA kah a ming dongah hangdang uh.
3 and they that have proceeded out of my mouth, and it became well known; I wrought suddenly, and [the events] came to pass.
Hnukbuet lamloh ka puen daengrhae coeng tih ka ka lamloh ha thoeng coeng. Te dongah amih te ka yaak sak tih thaeng ka saii vaengah ni a phoe uh pueng.
4 I know that you are stubborn, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your forehead brazen.
Na mangkhak khaw, na rhawn kah thi tharhui te khaw, na tal kah rhohum te khaw ka ming ta.
5 And I told you of old what [should be] before it came upon you; I made it known to you, lest you should say, [My] idols have done [it] for me; and should say, [My] graven and molten images have commanded me.
Te dongah ni hlamat lamloh nang taengah ka puen tih, a puek hlanah nang kan yaak sak. Ka tloh a saii tih ka mueithuk neh ka tuisi neh amih a uen na ti lah ve.
6 You have heard all this, but you have not known: yet I have made known to you the new things from henceforth, which are coming to pass, and you said not,
Na yaak tangtae te boeih hmu van lah. Nangmih tah na puen uh mahpawt nim? A kueinah tih na ming pawt te khaw a thai la nang kan yaak sak pawn ni.
7 Now they come to pass, and not formerly: and you heard not of them in former days: say not you, Yes, I know them.
Tahae kah a suen uh khaw daengrhae daengkhoi lamkah moenih. A khohnin hlanah na yaak pawt te khaw ka ming coeng tarha na ti ve.
8 You have neither known, nor understood, neither from the beginning have I opened your ears: for I knew that you would surely deal treacherously, and would be called a transgressor even from the womb.
Na yaak noek bal moenih, na ming noek bal moenih. Daengrhae daengkhoi lamkah ni na hna a khui voel pawh. Hnukpoh koi neh na hnukpoh te khaw, bungko khui lamloh boekoek la nang ng'khue te khaw ka ming.
9 For mine own sake will I show you my wrath, and will bring before you my glorious acts, that I may not utterly destroy you.
Ka ming ham ni ka thintoek khaw ka hlawt. Te vaengah kamah kah koehnah te nang taeng lamkah loh ka yueh coeng dae nang aka saii ham moenih.
10 Behold, I have sold you, [but] not for silver; but I have rescued you from the furnace of affliction.
Nang te kan cilpoe dae cak banglam pawt tih phacip phabaem kah hmai-ulh nen ni nang kan coelh he.
11 For mine own sake I will do [this] for you, because my name is profaned; and I will not give my glory to another.
Kamah ham pai ni, kamah ham pai ni ka saii dae balae tih a poeih uh. Ka thangpomnah khaw a tloe la ka pae mahpawh.
12 Hear me, O Jacob, and Israel whom I call; I am the first, and I endure for ever.
Jakob neh kamah kah ka khue Israel loh kai taengah he hnatun lah. Kai tah amah la ka om tih lamhma khaw kamah, lamhnuk khaw kamah coeng ni.
13 My hand also has founded the earth, and my right hand has fixed the sky: I will call them, and they shall stand together.
Ka kut loh diklai a suen tih ka bantang kut loh vaan a phayai. Amih te ka khue tih tun paiuh.
14 And all shall be gathered, and shall hear: who has told them these things? Out of love to you I have fulfilled your desire on Babylon, to abolish the seed of the Chaldeans.
Nangmih te boeih coi uh thae lamtah hnatun uh lah. Amih taengah aka puen pah khaw unim? Te rhoek te BOEIPA amah loh lungnah dongah Babylon te a kutnaep neh Khalden te a bantha neh a saii ni.
15 I have spoken, I have called, I have brought him, and made his way prosperous.
Kai kamah loh ka thui dongah anih te ka khue. Anih te ka khuen vetih a longpuei thaihtak ni.
16 Draw near to me, and hear you these words; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning: when it took place, there was I, and now the Lord, [even] the Lord, and his Spirit, has sent me.
Kamah taengah ha mop lamtah hnatun laeh. He tah a lu lamkah neh a huephael kah moenih. Amah a om tue lamkah ni pahoi ka thui coeng. Tahae ah khaw ka Boeipa Yahovah kah a Mueihla nen ni kai n'tueih.
17 Thus says the Lord that delivered you, the Holy One of Israel; I am your God, I have shown you how you should find the way wherein you should walk.
Nang aka tlan BOEIPA neh Israel kah a cim loh, “Kai tah nang hoeikhang sak ham aka cang puei tih, longpuei kah na caeh koi dongah nang aka hoihaeng Yahovah na Pathen ni.
18 And if you had listened to my commandments, [then] would your peace have been like a river, and your righteousness as a wave of the sea.
Ka olpaek te na hnatung dawk nen mah na ngaimongnah loh tuiva bangla, na duengnah loh tuipuei tuiphu bangla om coeng.
19 Your seed also would have been as the sand, and the offspring of your belly as the dust of the ground: neither now shall you by any means be utterly destroyed, neither shall your name perish before me.
Nang kah tiingan khaw laivin bangla om coeng tih na ko khuikah na cadil rhoek khaw cangtham bangla pat tlaih pawh. A ming khaw kamah mikhmuh lamloh phae tlaih pawh.
20 Go forth of Babylon, you that flee from the Chaldeans: utter aloud a voice of joy, and let this be made known, proclaim it to the end of the earth; say you, The Lord has delivered his servant Jacob.
Babylon lamloh coe uh laeh. Khalden lamloh yong uh laeh. Tamlung ol neh puen uh lamtah yaak sak uh laeh. He he diklai khobawt la khuen uh. BOEIPA loh a sal Jakob a tlan coeng,” tiuh.
21 And if they shall thirst, he shall lead them through the desert; he shall bring forth water to them out of the rock: the rock shall be cloven, and the water shall flow forth, and my people shall drink.
Amih te imrhong longah a caeh puei dae a halthi uh moenih. Lungpang khui lamkah tui te amih ham a sih sak tih lungpang a paeng vaengah tui khaw phuet,” a ti.
22 There is no joy, says the Lord, to the ungodly.
Halang rhoek taengah rhoepnah om mahpawh. BOEIPA loh a thui.
