< Isaiah 57 >

1 The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart; and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from before the evil.
Tamikalan a due teh, hawinae ka sak e tami hah takhoe lah ao navah, tamikalan hah hawihoehnae thung hoi takhoe toe tie hah apinihai thaipanuek awh hoeh, apinihai pouk awh hoeh.
2 He entereth into peace: they rest in their beds, [each one] that hath walked in his uprightness.
Hot patet e tami teh roumnae thung a kâen toe. Ahnimouh teh kalan lah a hring awh teh, amamae ikhun dawk a kâhat awh.
3 But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the harlot.
Ân ka sin e napui e capanaw, uicuknaw hoi ka kâyawt e catounnaw hi tho awh haw.
4 Against whom do ye sport yourselves? Against whom do ye make a wide mouth, [and] draw out the tongue? Are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood,
Nangmouh ni apimaw na pacai awh. Api hanelah maw na lai na pâthosin awh vaw. Nangmouh teh laithoe catoun, kâ ka ek e catoun,
5 inflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clefts of the rocks?
kathenkungnaw e rahim vah, meikaphawk koe ka cuk e, ravo thung, lungha rahak camo kathetnaw nahoehmaw.
6 Among the smooth [stones] of the torrent is thy portion; they, they are thy lot: even to them hast thou poured out a drink-offering, thou hast offered an oblation. Shall I be comforted myself as to these things?
Ravo yawn talung kâpinaw rahak nangmae ham teh ao. Hot patetlah e hno teh nangmae râw doeh. Hetnaw e hmalah nei thuengnae hoi tavai thuengnae naw hah na rabawk awh. Hotnaw hah ka ngai han na maw.
7 Upon a lofty and high mountain hast thou set thy bed: even thither didst thou go up to offer sacrifice.
Mon rasangnae koe na ikhun hah na hruek teh, hote hmuen koe thueng nahanelah ouk na luen.
8 Behind the doors also and the posts hast thou set up thy remembrance: for apart from me, thou hast uncovered thyself, and art gone up; thou hast enlarged thy bed, and hast made agreement with them; thou lovedst their bed, thou sawest their nakedness.
Nang pahnim hoeh nahanlah tho hnuklah na hruek teh, kai koe laipalah alouknaw koe khohna na rading teh na luen toe. Na ikhun na pakaw teh, ahnimouh koe lawkkamnae na sak toe. Tawngtai lah na hmu e ahnimae ikhun hah na lungpataw toe.
9 And thou wentest to the king with ointment, and didst multiply thy perfumes, and didst send thy messengers afar off, and didst debase thyself unto Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
Satui na sin teh siangpahrang koe na cei toe. Hmuitui na pung sak toe. Laiceinaw hah ahlanae koe na patoun teh, Sheol totouh na patoun toe. (Sheol h7585)
10 Thou wast wearied by the multitude of thy ways; [but] thou saidst not, It is of no avail. Thou didst find a quickening of thy strength; therefore thou wast not sick [of it].
Na ceinae lam ahlapoung dawkvah ngawt na tâwn eiteh, na lungpout hoeh. Na kâyawm teh na hlout dawkvah, na thathout hoeh.
11 And of whom hast thou been afraid or feared, that thou hast lied, and hast not remembered me, nor taken it to heart? Have not I even of long time held my peace, and thou fearest me not?
Nang ni apini na bari teh, na taki dawk maw laithoe dei laihoi kai na pahnim. Hoehpawiteh, na lungthin hoi na pouk hoeh. Kasawlah duem ka o dawk maw na taki hoeh.
12 I will declare thy righteousness, and thy works; and they shall not profit thee.
Na lannae hoi na tawksak e hah ka pâpho han. Hatei, cungkeinae awm mahoeh.
13 When thou criest, let them that are gathered by thee deliver thee! But a wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall take them; but he that putteth his trust in me shall inherit the land, and possess my holy mountain.
Na hram toteh, na pâkhueng e meikaphawknaw ni na rungngang naseh. Hatei, hotnaw teh kahlî ni ahlanae koe a sin han. Kâha ni a palek awh han. Hatei, kai na kâuep e niteh, ram hah pang awh vaiteh, mon kathoungnaw hah râw lah a pang awh han.
14 And it shall be said, Cast up, cast up, prepare the way, take up the stumbling-blocks out of the way of my people.
Hahoi, talai paten awh, talai paten awh. Lam pathoup awh. Ka taminaw e lam dawk e thongmuinaw hah takhoe awh telah ka dei.
15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, and whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy [place], and with him that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a rasang poungnae koe tawm lah kaawm e, a yungyoe kangning e, a min Thoungnae telah ka tawn e ni hettelah a dei, Kai teh a rasangnae koe kathounge hmuen koe ka o. Ka kârahnoumnaw e lungthin pâhlaw hoi pankângai e lungthin pâhlaw hanelah, a lung hoi pankângai katang e hoi kârahnoum katangnaw koevah ka o.
16 For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth; for the spirit would fail before me, and the souls [which] I have made.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a yungyoe ka tuk mahoeh, ka lung hai pou khuek mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka sak e kâha hoi muitha teh ka hma lah a tâwn han doeh.
17 For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and smote him; I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on backslidingly in the way of his heart.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, utsinnae hoi payonnae dawkvah, ka lungkhuek teh ka tuk, ka minhmai ka hro teh ka lungkhuek. Hatei, ahnimouh teh amamae lungpata laihoi ao awh.
18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him; and I will lead him, and will restore comforts unto him and to those of his that mourn.
A hringnae teh ka hmu toe. Ahni teh, ka dam sak han. Ka ceikhai vaiteh, ahni hoi ahni kakhuinaw koevah, lungmawngnae teh bout ka poe han.
19 I create the fruit of the lips: peace, peace to him [that is] afar off, and to him [that is] nigh, saith Jehovah; and I will heal him.
Pahni paw hah ka sak. Ahlanae koe kaawmnaw hoi a hnainae koe kaawmnaw koevah, roumnae, roumnae teh awm lawiseh, telah BAWIPA ni ati. Hahoi ahni teh ka dam sak han ati.
20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea, which cannot rest, and whose waters cast up mire and dirt.
Hatei, tamikathoutnaw teh, kâhuen e talî patetlah ao. Duem ao thai hoeh toteh, songnawng hoi tangdong a tâco sak.
21 There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.
Tamikathoutnaw hanelah roumnae awm hoeh telah ka Cathut ni ati.
