Isaiah 26
1 In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Iudah, We haue a strong citie: saluation shall God set for walles and bulwarkes.
To na niah loe Judah prae ah hae laa hae sah o tih; kacak vangpui to a tawnh o; Sithaw mah tapang hoi kacak sipae hoiah loihhaih to na sah pae tih.
2 Open ye the gates that the righteous nation, which keepeth the trueth, may enter in.
Khongkha to paong oh, loktang ah khosah kami hoi katoeng kaminawk to akun o nasoe;
3 By an assured purpose wilt thou preserue perfite peace, because they trusted in thee.
poektoeng kami loe nang to oep pongah, kakoep monghaih to na paek tih.
4 Trust in the Lord for euer: for in the Lord God is strength for euermore.
Angraeng JEHOVAH loe dungzan abuephaih ah oh pongah, Angraeng loe dungzan khoek to oepthoh.
5 For hee will bring downe them that dwell on hie: the hie citie he will abase: euen vnto the ground wil he cast it downe, and bring it vnto dust.
Anih mah hmuensang ah kaom kaminawk to pakhrak tathuk moe, kasang vangpuinawk doeh pahnaem tathuk; long ah kraksak moe, maiphu thungah a vah.
6 The foote shall treade it downe, euen the feete of the poore, and the steppes of the needie.
To vangpui ah kamtang kami hoi kavawt kaminawk ih khok tangkannawk to khok hoiah cawh pae o tih.
7 The way of the iust is righteousnesse: thou wilt make equall the righteous path of the iust.
Katoeng kami loe loklam katoeng ah caeh; Aw Katoeng koek, nang loe, katoeng kami ih loklam to na sak pae.
8 Also we, O Lord, haue waited for thee in the way of thy iudgemets: the desire of our soule is to thy Name, and to the remembrance of thee.
Ue, na toenghaih loklam, Aw Angraenhg nang to kang zing o; ka hing o haih mah na hmin ka panoek o poe thai hanah, koehhaih ka tawnh o.
9 With my soule haue I desired thee in the night, and with my spirit within mee will I seeke thee in the morning: for seeing thy iudgements are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world shall learne righteousnesse.
Ka hinghaih mah khoving ah nang to poek, ue, kai thung ih pakhra mah khawnthaw ah nang to pakrong tih; long ah na lokcaekhaih phak naah, long nuiah kaom kaminawk mah na toenghaih to amtuk o tih.
10 Let mercie bee shewed to the wicked, yet hee will not learne righteousnesse: in the land of vprightnesse will he do wickedly, and will not beholde the maiestie of the Lord.
Kasae kami khaeah tahmenhaih to nam tuengsak, toe toenghaih to amtuk mak ai; anih loe toenghaih prae ah mataeng doeh kahoih ai hmuen to sak toengtoeng vop moe, Angraeng lensawkhaih to tiah doeh sah ai.
11 O Lord, they will not beholde thine hie hande: but they shall see it, and bee confounded with the zeale of the people, and the fire of thine enemies shall deuoure them.
Aw Angraeng, na ban payangh tahang naah, nihcae mah hnu o mak ai; toe nangmah ih kaminawk na khetzawnhaih nam tuengsak naah, nihcae loe azat o tih; ue, na misanawk ih hmai mah nihcae to kang tih.
12 Lord, vnto vs thou wilt ordeine peace: for thou also hast wrought all our workes for vs.
Angraeng, monghaih to kaicae hanah nang paek tih; kaicae ih hmuennawk boih nang sak pae boeh.
13 O Lord our God, other lords beside thee, haue ruled vs, but we will remember thee onely, and thy Name.
Aw Angraeng kaicae ih Sithaw, nang mah khue ai, kalah angraengnawk mah doeh kaicae hae ang uk o boeh; toe nang ih ahmin khue ni ka saphaw o han.
14 The dead shall not liue, neither shall the dead arise, because thou hast visited and scattered them, and destroyed all their memorie.
Nihcae loe duek o boeh moe, hing o mak ai boeh; kadueh pakhranawk loe angthawk o let mak ai boeh; nihcae to na thuitaek moe, nam rosak; nihcae panoekhaih to nang hmatsak boeh.
15 Thou hast increased the nation, O Lord: thou hast increased the nation: thou art made glorious: thou hast enlarged all the coastes of the earth.
Aw Angraeng, acaeng to na pungsak moe, prae doeh na kawksak boeh; nang loe lensawkhaih hoiah na oh boeh; prae angzithaih ramrinawk boih doeh na kawksak boeh.
16 Lord, in trouble haue they visited thee: they powred out a prayer when thy chastening was vpon them.
Angraeng, raihaih hoiah nang khaeah angzoh o; nihcae to na thuitaek naah, lawkthuihaih hoi nang khaeah ang zoh o.
17 Like as a woman with childe, that draweth neere to the trauaile, is in sorow, and cryeth in her paines, so haue we bene in thy sight, O Lord.
Aw Angraeng, kaicae loe zokpomh nongpata mah, nawkta tapen tom nathuem ih kana aham baktiah ni na hmaa ah ka oh o boeh.
18 We haue coceiued, we haue borne in paine, as though we should haue brought forth winde: there was no helpe in the earth, neither did the inhabitants of the world fall.
Zok ka pomh o moe, nat loiah ka hangh o, toe tidoeh om ai takhi ni ka tapen o lat; long kaminawk mah loihhaih to hnu o ai; long nuiah kaom kaminawk pazawkhaih doeh om ai.
19 Thy dead men shall liue: euen with my body shall they rise. Awake, and sing, ye that dwel in dust: for thy dewe is as the dew of herbes, and the earth shall cast out the dead.
Toe nang ih kadueh kaminawk loe hing o tih; nihcae loe kadueh ka takpum hoiah nawnto angthawk o tih. Nangcae maiphu thungah kaom kaminawk, Angthawk oh loe, laa to sah oh; nangcae ih dantui loe khawnthaw ah kaom phroh nui ih dantui baktiah oh, long mah kadueh kaminawk to va tih.
20 Come, my people: enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doores after thee: hide thy selfe for a very litle while, vntill the indignation passe ouer.
Kai ih kaminawk, angzo oh, imthung ah akun oh, nangcae hnukah kaom thoknawk to khaa oh; palungphuihaih boeng ai karoek to nawnetta thungah anghawk oh.
21 For lo, the Lord commeth out of his place, to visite the iniquitie of the inhabitants of the earth vpon them: and the earth shall disclose her blood, and shall no more hide her slaine.
Khenah, angmacae zaehaih pongah long kaminawk to thuitaek hanah, Angraeng loe angmah ohhaih ahmuen hoiah angzoh boeh; to naah long mah anih nuiah kaom athii longhaih to amtuengsak tih, anih mah hum ih kaminawk doeh hawk mak ai boeh.
