< Isaiah 58 >

1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up your voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.
Kacaipounglah hram nateh, panguep hanh. Mongka patetlah na lawk cai sak. Ka taminaw ni kâlawk a eknae hoi Jakop imthung yonnae hah pâpho haw.
2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God.
Hateiteh, hnintangkuem kai hah na tawng awh teh, ka lamthung panue e hah a ngai awh. Miphun buet touh ni lannae a sak teh, Cathut e lamthung a ceitakhai boihoeh e patetlah kângingnae phunglam hah na pâlei awh teh, Cathut hnai hane hai a ngai awh.
3 Why have we fasted, say they, and you see not? why have we afflicted our soul, and you take no knowledge? Behold, in the day of your fast you find pleasure, and exact all your labors.
Bangkongmaw, rawca ka hai awh e na hmu hoeh. Bang kecu dawk maw, oupnae na poe e hah na panuek laipalah ati awh. Khenhaw! rawca na hai hnin vah, namamouh nawmnae na sak awh teh, na thaw katawknaw pueng na dudam awh.
4 Behold, you fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickedness: you shall not fast as you do this day, to make your voice to be heard on high.
Nangmouh ni kâyuekâounnae hoi, thoenae kut na kahluem awh teh, kâthaw hanelah, rawca hah ouk na hai awh. Sahnin e rawca na hai awh e patetlah na lawknaw hah lathueng lah thai hanelah rawca na hai awh mahoeh.
5 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? will you call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
Rawcahai hnin vah, na ka rek awh e hah maw kai ni ka ngai e lah ao han. A kang patetlah lûsaling hane hoi, buri phai vaiteh vaiphu kâphuen hane na vaimoe. Hetheh, rawcahainae hoi BAWIPA ni a coe e hnin na ti awh han na vaimoe.
6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?
Tamikathout kateknae tangron rathap pouh e, yawcu patue e, hoi yawcu kâkhoe sak e heh ka ngai e rawcahainae nahoehmaw.
7 Is it not to deal your bread to the hungry, and that you bring the poor that are cast out to your house? when you see the naked, that you cover him; and that you hide not yourself from your own flesh?
A von ka hlamnaw koe rawca poe hane karoedengnaw im vah, thokhai e nahoehmaw. Caici lah kaawmnaw na hmu navah, khohna na poe hane, nama e tak na hmu toteh na roun hoeh nahoehmaw.
8 Then shall your light break forth as the morning, and your health shall spring forth speedily: and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of the LORD shall be your rear guard.
Na angnae hah amom e kho ka sei e patetlah a sei vaiteh, damnae teh karanglah a pha han. Na lannae ni na hrawi vaiteh, BAWIPA bawilennae a kamnue sak han.
9 Then shall you call, and the LORD shall answer; you shall cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If you take away from the middle of you the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;
Hottelah na kaw vaiteh, BAWIPA ni a pato han. Na kaw toteh ahni ni, hi ka o ati han. Nangmouh thung dawk e yawcu hoi, khutdon hoi takhi e, dudamnae lawk dei e hah na kâvan sak awh teh,
10 And if you draw out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall your light rise in obscurity, and your darkness be as the noon day:
a von ka hlamnaw hanelah hring na pasoung teh, rektap e naw hah a von na paha sak pawiteh, hmonae um vah na angnae a tâco vaiteh, hmonae hah kanîthun patetlah ao han.
11 And the LORD shall guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in drought, and make fat your bones: and you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.
Pout laipalah BAWIPA ni na hrawi awh han. Takang a tho navah, ka boum lah na paca han. Na hrunaw hai a tha ka o sak han. Tui ka bu e takha patetlah kahak boihoeh e tuiphuek patetlah na o han.
12 And they that shall be of you shall build the old waste places: you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
Nangmouh thung e taminaw ni palang ka rawk e hmuen hah na pathoup awh han. Se moikapap e adu lah ung e pathoup awh ati han. Hottelah nangmouh teh, ka rawk e ka pathoupkung tamimaya lam, khosak nahanelah, patuen ka pathoupkung lah na o awh ati awh han.
13 If you turn away your foot from the sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honorable; and shall honor him, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words:
Sabbath a ek hoeh nahan hoi, hnin kathoung hnin nah na ngai e na sak hoeh nahanelah, sabbath hah nawmnae doeh na titeh, BAWIPA e hnin kathoung teh, bari han kamcu na titeh, ma ngai e tarawi mahoeh, mae nawmnae hai sak mahoeh, lawk dei laipalah na pho na len awh pawiteh,
14 Then shall you delight yourself in the LORD; and I will cause you to ride on the high places of the earth, and feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father: for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it.
BAWIPA dawkvah, na lunghawi vaiteh, talai a rasangnae hmuen dawk na kâcui han. Na pa Jakop ni a pang e râw hoi na kawk han. BAWIPA e pahni ni a dei toe ati.
