Isaiah 35
1 The wilderness and dry land will celebrate; the desert will blossom like the crocus.
Ramke hoi ka ke e talai teh a lunghawi awh han. Ayawn hai a lunghawi vaiteh, a kamhlawng han.
2 Bloom profusely, celebrate and sing! The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the splendor of Carmel and Sharon. They shall see the glory of the Lord, the splendor of our God.
Puenghoi kamhlawng vaiteh, lunghawinae hoi la saknae hoi a lunghawi awh han. Ahni ni Lebanon mon e bawilennae hai thoseh, Karmel mon hoi Sharon hmuen meihawinae hai thoseh, poe lah ao han. Ahni teh BAWIPA e lentoenae, maimae Cathut e bawilennae hah a hmu awh han.
3 Make the weak hands strong, and make the trembling knees firm!
Tha ka baw e kutnaw hah tha awm sak awh. Pouk ka ca e khokpakhu hah caksak awh.
4 Tell those who are frightened, “Be strong! Don't be afraid! Look, your God is coming to punish his enemies, with divine retribution he will come to save you.”
Lung ka tâsue e naw na lung tha awm sak awh. Taket awh hanh awh telah tet awh. Khenhaw! Nangmae Cathut teh moipathungnae, Cathut e runae poenae hoi a tho han, nangmouh na rungngang han.
5 When that happens, the blind will see, and the deaf will hear.
Hat toteh, mitdawnnaw ni mit bout hmawt awh vaiteh, hnâpangnaw ni hnâ bout a thai awh han.
6 The lame will jump like a deer, and the dumb will sing for joy. Springs will gush in the wilderness; streams will flow in the desert.
Khokkhemnaw ni sayuk patetlah a doukcouk awh han. Lawkanaw ni hai la a sak awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ramke um vah tui puk tâcawt vaiteh, thingyeiyawn dawk tui a lawng han.
7 The dried-up ground will become like a pool, the arid land like water springs. In the place where jackals used to live, there will be grass and reeds and rushes.
Kâan poung e thingyei teh, tuikamuem lah ao awh han. Ka ke e talai teh tuiphuek lah ao han. Kahrawnguinaw a inae lungpum yueng lah marangpho a paw han.
8 There will be a highway there, a road called “The Way of Holiness.” Nobody bad will travel on it, only those who follow the Way. Fools will not go there.
Hote hmuen koe lamthungpui awm vaiteh, thoungnae lamthung telah a phung awh han. Kathounghoehe naw teh, hote lamthung dawk dawn awh mahoeh. Hote lamthung teh, hote lamthung dawk ka dawn naw e lah ao teh, a pathu awh nakunghai lam phen a mahoeh toe.
9 No lions or other dangerous animals will be found there on the road—only the redeemed will walk along it.
Hote hmuen dawk bangpatet e sendek hai awm mahoeh. Ka matheng e sarang buet touh boehai hote lamthung dawk luen awh mahoeh. Ratang e naw ni duengdoeh hote lamthung teh a dawn awh han.
10 Those the Lord has set free will return, singing as they enter Jerusalem, wearing crowns of everlasting joy. They are overcome with thankfulness and happiness; sorrow and sadness simply disappear.
BAWIPA ni a ratang e naw teh bout tho awh vaiteh, la sak laihoi Zion kho dawk a kâen awh han. A yungyoe lunghawinae teh ahnimae lû dawk ao han. Ahnimouh teh lunghawinae hoi lungnawmnae tawn awh vaiteh, lungmathoenae hoi cingounae teh a yawng awh han toe.
