< Isaiah 51 >
1 Listen to me, those of you who follow what is right, and who worship the Lord. Think about the rock from which you were cut, and to the quarry from which you were chiseled.
Pakai holla, huhdohna chang dinga kinem jousen, kasei hi ngaijuvin! Songpia konna kitan doh’a na hiuvin chule gomtong’a konna kilaidoh’a na hiu chu ngaitouvin.
2 Look back at Abraham your father, and Sarah who gave birth to you. When I called him, he was only one man, but then I blessed him and he had many descendants.
Na pului’u Abraham le na nampiu hung penna nu Sarah chu ngaitouvin. Ka kou petna chu Abraham achangseh bou ahin, hinla ama phatthei kaboh’in, nam lentah ahung hitai.
3 The Lord will care for Zion and feel sorry about all her ruined places. He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert areas like the garden of the Lord. People there will have joy and happiness, giving thanks and singing sweet songs.
Pakaiyin Israel alhamon kit ding, chule amah thah nau alainat pi’e. Nelphai jong chu Eden banga nom ding, gamthip gamgo lai jong chu Pakai honlei bang ding ahi. Kipana le thanopna chuche muna kimun tin, Thangvahna laho chu gingdoh ding ahi.
4 Pay attention to me, my people; listen to me, my nation: I will send out my law, and my justice will be a light to the nations.
Ka mite, kasei ngai’uvin. Israel’in ngai hen. Ajeh chu ka danthu kilhangsap ding, chule ka thutan themna chu chitin-namtin lah’a kilang ding ahi.
5 My rule of right will arrive soon. My salvation is coming. My power will bring judgment to the nations. The distant lands are waiting for me and my power.
Ka khotona le thutan themna hung lhung loi ding, Ka huhhingna hi hunga ahitai. Ka bantha hattah hin chitin-namtin chunga thutan themna ahin pohlut ding ahi. Gam latah gam’a hon ei hinvet dingu chule kinem tah’a ka bantha hatna chu kinem ding ahiuve.
6 Look up at the heavens, and look down at the earth beneath. The heavens will disappear like smoke, the earth will wear out like old clothes. The people living there will die like flies, but my salvation will last forever, and my way of goodness and right will never be destroyed.
Dah in van khu veuvin, chule noi lam leiset hin vesuh un. Ajeh chu van hi meikhu tobang ahung mang thah ding, chule leiset hi ponsil hal tobanga mang thah ding ahi. Leiset mite jong thousi tobanga thi ding ahiuvin, hinla ka huhhingna hi a’itih’a umjing ding ahi. Ka chonphatna dan chu akichaitih umlou ding ahi.
7 Listen to me, you who know what's right, and who have really accepted my teachings. Don't be afraid of people's insults—they're just human—or be terrified by their abusive language.
Kasei ngaijun, adihlou’a konna adih hea nangho, adan thu lunga tuhdet hon, mihon nahin taitom diu tija hih un. Ama hon na jumso dingu jong kicha hih beh un.
8 Moths will eat them up like clothing; bugs will chew through them like wool. But my goodness will last forever, my salvation will endure for all generations.
Ajeh iham itileh ngetnin pon anehset tobang hi dingu, chule lung hon samul anehheng tobang hung hidiu ahije. Hinla ka chonphatna chu itih’a hijinga, Ka mihuhhingna jong akhang khanga kijom jing ding ahi.
9 Please wake up, wake up! Use your strength, powerful Lord! Act as you used to in olden days, in former generations. Weren't you the one who cut Rahab to pieces, who killed that sea monster?
Khangin, khangin, Vo Pakai! Thaneitah in hung kivonin! Nathahatna banjet chu hin jah doh in! Masanglai nikhoa nangman Nile vadunga Hingne(dragon) tobang Aigupta mite natha tobang chu hiuhen.
10 Weren't you the one who dried up the sea, making a way through the deep waters for the redeemed to cross over?
Na mite agalkai theina dinguva twithuh lah’a kona ahungdoh theina dingun, twikhanglen nakan sah in, lampi lhung lut pachu, tunia hi Ama chu na hilou hitam?
11 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.
Pakai lhatsate chu hung kile’ uvintin, tonsot kipana lallukhuh khuh puma Jerusalema chu lasa puma lut’uvintin, lungkhamna le lunghemna kitol mangin tin, amaho chu kipana le thanopna’a dim jing ding ahitauve.
12 It's me, yes, I am the one who comforts you. Why should you be afraid of mortals who die just like grass?
Keima, kei mong mongin nangho kalhamon nahiuvin, hijeh’a chu mihem ho chu, hampa banga mollha loile mangthei bep ahiuvin, ipi dinga na kichat ham?
13 You have forgotten the Lord, your Maker, who stretched out the heavens and who laid the foundations of the earth! That's why you shake with fear all day long, because you're threatened by the anger of those who oppress you, wanting to destroy you. But where are your oppressors and their anger now?
Hijongleh nanghon Pakai, na Sempa’u, vanho hin pha jal'a chule leiset bul hin phutdohpa chu na sumil tauve. Mihem bol hesohna na kichat jom jing diu ha? Na melma teu lunghanna na kichat jom jing dingu ham? Tua hi alungsat nau le alunghan nau hoilamba geija hitam? Achemang'a ahitai.
14 The prisoners that are bowed down will soon be set free. They're not going to die; they won't go on being hungry.
Na sohchang ho’u chu gang tah’a kilhadoh ding ahiuve! Songkul lutna, an ngolna le thina chu nachan ding hitalou ding ahitai.
15 For I am the Lord your God who whips up the sea so its waves roar. The Lord Almighty is his name.
Ajeh iham itileh Keima Pakai na Pathen kahi: Twikhanglen choh thouva, chule twipi kinong chu ging dum duma lhapa chu kahin, Kamin chu Vanna Galmiho Pakai kitipa chu ahi.
16 I have told you what to say, and I have protected you with my hand. I created the heavens and founded the earth, and told Zion, “You are my people.”
Chule Keiman ka Thuho chu nakama kakhumpeh in, chule nakihuh bitna ding chu kasellin, chule keiman vantham jol chu kapha jal'a chule leiset bul aphudoh ahin, Keiman Israel jah’a, ‘Nangho Kamite nahiuve’ kati ahi.
17 Wake up, wake up! Get up, Jerusalem! You have drunk from the cup of the Lord's anger he handed to you. You have drained it down to the bottom of the cup, the drink that makes people stagger around.
Thoudoh in, thoudoh in, Vo Jerusalem! Nangman Pakai lunghanna chu khonna nadontai. Tijat umtah khon chu nadonin, atwi valha nunungpen geija nadanga navat lhah sah ahitai.
18 Of all your children you had, there's not one left to guide you. Of all the children you raised, there's not one to take you by the hand.
Na chateu khatcha jong ahinga akidalha a na khuttuh’a chule na puile ding aumtapoi.
19 Two tragedies have struck you: devastation caused by famine, and destruction caused by war. Who is going to sympathize with you? Who is going to comfort you?
Hiche vangset hamsetna teni hi- manthaina le mahthahna, galle kelthohna hohi nachunga hunglhunga ahi. Nangho na hepi-khoto dingu koi kidalha hinau vem? Nangho nalhamon dingu um nauvem?
20 Your children have collapsed, lying in every street like antelopes caught in a trap. They experienced the full anger of the Lord, the condemnation of your God.
Ajeh iham itileh nachateu chu atha’u lhadah ahita’uvin chule lampia alumgam tauvin, agamsunga chengho chu len kikhum bangin panpi bei ahitauve.
21 So please listen to this, you poor people, sitting there in a drunken state, but not from drinking wine.
Hinla tun hiche hi ngaijin, akigimbol hesoh ho jukham tobanga lung gel je helouva touho, ju don kham jeh ahipouve.
22 This is what your Lord God says, your God, who defends his people's cause: Look! I have taken away from you the cup that made you stagger around. You will never again have to drink from that cup, the cup of my anger.
Hiche hi Thuneipen Pakai, na Pathen le na Panhupa chun asei ahije: Ven, keiman tijat umtah khon chu na khutna konin kalatai, nangman kalung hanna khon chu na donlou ding ahitai.
23 Instead I will give that cup to the people who tormented you, to those who said to you, “Lie face down so we can walk all over you.” You had to make your backs like the ground, like a street to be walked on.
Chuche khella chu nabol hesoh ho, ‘Keihon vutvaito kichiltha dingu chule natungtun chunga lam kajot dingu ahi’ tia seiho khutna hiche khon chu kapeh joh ahitai.
