< Isaiah 57 >

1 The righteous perishes, and no man lays it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.
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 shall enter into peace: they shall rest in their beds, each one walking 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 here, you sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the whore.
Ân ka sin e napui e capanaw, uicuknaw hoi ka kâyawt e catounnaw hi tho awh haw.
4 Against whom do you sport yourselves? against whom make you a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue? are you 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 Enflaming 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 stream is your portion; they, they are your lot: even to them have you poured a drink offering, you have offered a meat offering. Should I receive comfort in these?
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 On a lofty and high mountain have you set your bed: even thither went you 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 have you set up your remembrance: for you have discovered yourself to another than me, and are gone up; you have enlarged your bed, and made you a covenant with them; you loved their bed where you saw it.
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 you went to the king with ointment, and did increase your perfumes, and did send your messengers far off, and did debase yourself even to hell. (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 You are wearied in the greatness of your way; yet said you not, There is no hope: you have found the life of your hand; therefore you were not grieved.
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 have you been afraid or feared, that you have lied, and have not remembered me, nor laid it to your heart? have not I held my peace even of old, and you fear 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 your righteousness, and your works; for they shall not profit you.
Na lannae hoi na tawksak e hah ka pâpho han. Hatei, cungkeinae awm mahoeh.
13 When you cry, let your companies deliver you; but the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take them: but he that puts his trust in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit 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 shall say, Cast you up, cast you up, prepare the way, take up the stumbling block 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 says the high and lofty One that inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also 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 should 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 frowardly 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: I will lead him also, and restore comforts to him and to his mourners.
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 far off, and to him that is near, says the LORD; 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, when it cannot rest, 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, says my God, to the wicked.
Tamikathoutnaw hanelah roumnae awm hoeh telah ka Cathut ni ati.
