Isaiah 42
1 Behold, my seruaunt: I will stay vpon him: mine elect, in whom my soule deliteth: I haue put my Spirit vpon him: he shall bring forth iudgement to the Gentiles.
Khenah ka caksak ih ka tamna; ka qoih ih kami, palung koek ih loe anih ni; a nuiah ka Muithla to ka suek, anih mah Gentel kaminawk hanah toenghaih to sin pae tih.
2 He shall not crie, nor lift vp, nor cause his voice to be heard in the streete.
Anih loe loklam ah hang mak ai, lok to aek mak ai, mi mah doeh anih ih lok to thai mak ai.
3 A bruised reede shall hee not breake, and the smoking flaxe shall he not quench: he shall bring foorth iudgement in trueth.
Ahmaa kaom akung to anih mah khaek mak ai, kadueh tom hmai doeh paduek mak ai; anih mah oephaih hoi toenghaih to sin tih.
4 He shall not faile nor be discouraged till he haue set iudgement in the earth: and the yles shall waite for his lawe.
Anih loe long ah toenghaih om ai karoek to, palungboeng mak ai, tha doeh sae mak ai; tui mah takui ih prae kaminawk mah anih patukhaih to zing o tih.
5 Thus sayeth God the Lord (he that created the heauens and spred them abroad: he that stretched foorth the earth, and the buddes thereof: he that giueth breath vnto the people vpon it, and spirit to them that walke therein)
Vannawk sak pacoengah, payuengkung; long thungah kaom hmuennawk boih pungsakkung, long ah kaom kaminawk han anghahaih takhi paekkung, long cawh kaminawk hanah hinghaih takhi paekkung, Angraeng Sithaw mah hae tiah thuih;
6 I the Lord haue called thee in righteousnesse, and will hold thine hand, and I will keepe thee, and giue thee for a couenant of the people, and for a light of the Gentiles,
Kai Angraeng mah toenghaih hoiah kang kawk, na ban to kang patawnh pae moe, kang toep han; kaminawk lokmaihaih hoi Gentelnawk aanghaih ah kang suek han;
7 That thou maist open the eyes of the blind, and bring out the prisoners from the prison: and them that sitte in darkenesse, out of the prison house.
mikmaengnawk ih mik to amtuengsak moe, thongkrah kaminawk loisak pacoengah, thongkrakhaih im kaving thungah anghnu kaminawk prawt kami ah kang suek han.
8 I am the Lord, this is my Name, and my glory wil I not giue to another, neither my praise to grauen images.
Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh; ka hmin loe to tiah oh; ka lensawkhaih to minawk kalah khaeah ka paek mak ai, kai pakoehhaih doeh sak cop ih krangnawk khaeah ka paek mak ai.
9 Beholde, the former thinges are come to passe, and newe things doe I declare: before they come foorth, I tell you of them.
Khenah, hmaloe ah ka thuih ih hmuennawk loe oh tangtang boeh, vaihi loe kangtha hmuennawk ni ka thuih; to hmuennawk om ai naah kang thuih coek boeh, tiah a naa.
10 Sing vnto the Lord a newe song, and his praise from the ende of the earth: yee that goe downe to the sea, and all that is therein: the yles and the inhabitants thereof.
Tuipui thung caeh kaminawk hoi tuipui thungah kaom hmuennawk boih, tuipui mah takui ih prae kaminawk hoi a thungah kaom kaminawk boih, Angraeng khaeah laa kangtha to sah oh loe long boenghaih hoiah anih saphawhaih laa to sah oh.
11 Let the wildernesse and the cities thereof lift vp their voyce, the townes that Kedar doeth inhabite: let the inhabitants of the rocks sing: let them shoute from the toppe of the mountaines.
Praezaeknawk hoi to ah kaom vangpuinawk loe tha hoiah hang o nasoe, Kedar ih kaminawk doeh anghoe o nasoe; lungsong pongah kaom kaminawk mah anghoehaih laa to sah o nasoe loe, mae nui hoiah hang o nasoe.
12 Let them giue glorie vnto the Lord, and declare his praise in the ylands.
Angraeng khaeah lensawkhaih paek o nasoe, tuipui thung ih praenawk khaeah anih saphawhaih laa to panoek o sak nasoe.
13 The Lord shall go forth as a gyant: he shall stirre vp his courage like a man of warre: he shall shout and crie, and shall preuaile against his enemies.
Angraeng loe thacak kami baktiah caeh ueloe, misatuh kami baktiah minawk palungthin to pahruek tih; hanghaih hoi misatukhaih lok to thui tih, ue, hang ueloe, a misanawk to pazawk tih.
14 I haue a long time holden my peace: I haue beene still and refrained my selfe: nowe will I crie like a trauailing woman: I will destroy and deuoure at once.
Kai loe atue kasawk ah kam uep; lok apae ai ah ka oh duem, pauephaih hoiah kho ka sak; toe vaihi loe nongpata caa oh natuem ih kana aham baktih toengah, ka hangh han; vaito ah kam rosak phaeng han.
15 I will make waste mountaines, and hilles, and drie vp all their herbes, and I will make the floods ylands, and I will drie vp the pooles.
Maenawk hoi maesomnawk to ka pongsak sut moe, phrohnawk doeh ka zaeksak boih han; vapui tui to ka kangsak moe, tuilinawk doeh ka kangsak boih han.
16 And I will bring the blinde by a way, that they knewe not, and lead them by paths that they haue not knowen: I will make darkenesse light before them, and crooked thinges straight. These thinges will I doe vnto them, and not forsake them.
Nihcae mah panoek o vai ai ih loklam hoiah mikmaengnawk to ka zaeh han; nihcae mah panoek o vai ai ih loklam ah ka caeh haih han; nihcae hmaa ih vinghaih to aanghaih ah kang coengsak moe, kangkawn loklamnawk to ka patoengh han. Nihcae khaeah hae hmuennawk hae ka sak pae han, nihcae to ka pahnawt sut mak ai.
17 They shall be turned backe: they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in grauen images, and say to the molten images, Yee are our gods.
Sak cop ih krang oep kaminawk, krangnawk khaeah, Nangcae loe kaicae ih sithaw ah na oh o, tiah thui kaminawk loe azathaih hoiah hnukbang ah amlaem o let tih.
18 Heare, ye deafe: and ye blinde, regarde, that ye may see.
Nangcae naapang kaminawk, tahngai oh; nangcae mikmaengnawk, na hnuk o thai hanah, khen oh.
19 Who is blinde but my seruaunt? or deafe as my messenger, that I sent? who is blind as the perfit, and blinde as the Lordes seruant?
Mi maw ka tamna baktiah mik kamaeng, to tih ai boeh loe mi maw ka patoeh ih laicaeh baktiah naa kapang? Kai khaeah angpaek kami baktih, Angraeng ih tamna baktiah mi maw mikmaeng ah kaom?
20 Seeing many things, but thou keepest them not? opening the eares, but he heareth not?
Hmuen kating ai na hnuk o boeh, toe tidoeh na poek o ai; naa doeh akhaw to mah na thaih o ai.
21 The Lord is willing for his righteousnesse sake that he may magnifie the Lawe, and exalt it.
Angraeng loe a toenghaih pongah ni anghoe, a patuk ih lok to pakoeh moe, lensawkhaih hoiah koisak.
22 But this people is robbed and spoiled, and shalbe all snared in dungeons, and they shalbe hid in prison houses: they shall be for a pray, and none shall deliuer: a spoile, and none shall say, Restore.
Hae acaeng loe amrohaih hoi lomhaih tongh kami ah oh; nihcae loe tangqom thungah krak o moe, thongim thungah anghawk o boih; amrohaih tongh o naah, mi mah doeh akrang ai; hmuenmae lomh pae o naah, mi mah doeh paek o let ah, tiah thui pae o ai.
23 Who among you shall hearken to this, and take heede, and heare for afterwardes?
Tipongah hae kaminawk loe lok tahngai o ai loe? Angzo han koi atue to panoek moe, pakuem kami oh o maw?
24 Who gaue Iaakob for a spoyle, and Israel to the robbers? Did not ye Lord, because we haue sinned against him? for they woulde not walke in his waies, neither be obedient vnto his Lawe.
Mi mah maw lomh hanah Jacob to paek moe, mingcahnawk ban ah Israel to paek? A zae o pongah to tiah paekkung loe Angraeng angmah na ai maw? Nihcae loe Angraeng ih loklam to pazui o ai moe, anih mah patuk ih lok doeh tahngai pae o ai.
25 Therefore hee hath powred vpon him his fierce wrath, and the strength of battell: and it set him on fire round about, and he knewe not, and it burned him vp, yet he considered not.
To pongah nihcae nuiah hmai baktih kamngaeh palungphuihaih to kraih moe, kanung parai misatukhaih to phaksak; nihcae loe hmai mah takui khoep, toe panoek o ai toengtoeng vop; hmaipalai mah kangh boeh, toe tidoeh sah ai ah oh o toengtoeng vop.
