Isaiah 49
1 Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; Yhwh hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name.
Oe tuilum taminaw, ka lawk hah thai awh haw. Ahla koe e miphunnaw na hnâpakeng awh haw. Vonthung ka o nah roeroe vah BAWIPA ni na kaw toe. Anu e vonthung vah ka min a pakhum toe.
2 And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me;
Ka pahni hah tahloi kahran e patetlah a sak teh, a kut tâhlip dawk na hro. Pala pikhluk e patetlah na coung sak teh, a palabom dawkvah na pâseng.
3 And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified.
Oe Isarel nang teh kaie san doeh. Nang dawk hoi ka bawilennae a kamnue han telah ka ti toe.
4 Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain: yet surely my judgment is with Yhwh, and my work with my God.
Kai ni hai hawinae awm laipalah ka tawk toe. Ayawmyin lah ka tha hai a baw toe. Hatei, ka lannae tawkphu teh BAWIPA koe ao teh, ka tawkphu teh Cathut koe ao tie hah ka cai telah ati.
5 And now, saith Yhwh that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of Yhwh, and my God shall be my strength.
Atuvah, BAWIPA ama koe Jakop bankhai hane hoi, ama koe Isarel ka pâkhueng hane a san lah o nahanelah, von thung hoi na kangdoutkhai e ni a dei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA hmaitung vah ka sungren e lah ka o. Ka Cathut teh ka thasainae lah ao han.
6 And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.
Bokheiyah, ama ni, Jakop miphun kangdue sak hane hoi Isarelnaw thung dawk kahloutnaw hah bout kangdue sak hanelah, ka san lah na o e heh hno ka pâhawca doeh. Talai pout totouh ka rungngangnae lah na o nahan, Jentelnaw kaangsakkung lah onae hai na poe han.
7 Thus saith Yhwh, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, to him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers, Kings shall see and arise, princes also shall worship, because of Yhwh that is faithful, and the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee.
Isarelnaw hah a ratang teh, a tami kathoungnaw ayâ ni a pacekpahlek e, miphun ni a panuet e, lawkcengkung san, Jehovah ni hettelah a dei. Yuemkamcu, BAWIPA, Isarel tamikathoung, na karawikung kecu dawkvah, siangpahrangnaw ni hmawt awh vaiteh, a thaw awh han, bawinaw ni hai a bawk awh han telah ati.
8 Thus saith Yhwh, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages;
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Ngai kaawm e tueng dawk na lawk hah ka tarawi toe. Rungngangnae hnin dawk nang hah na kabawp toe. Na ring vaiteh, miphunnaw hanelah lawkkamnae hah na poe han. Ram bout kangdue sak hane hoi kingkadi e râw lah bout coe hanelah,
9 That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places.
Thongkabawtnaw koe tâcawt awh. Hmonae koe kaawmnaw koevah, kamphawng awh telah na dei thai nahanelah, na ta awh han. Lamthungnaw dawk cet awh vaiteh, arasangnae cailum hmuen dawk pawngpanae lah ao awh han.
10 They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them.
Vonhlam awh mahoeh, tui kahran awh mahoeh. Khumbei ni runae poe awh mahoeh. Kanî raeng ni daw awh mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh ka pahren e ni cetkhai awh vaiteh, tui onae koe a ceikhai han.
11 And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted.
Kaie mon pueng teh lamthung lah ka coung sak han. Kaie lam kalennaw hai ka tawm han.
12 Behold, these shall come from far: and, lo, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.
Khenhaw! Ahnimanaw teh ahlanae koehoi tho hanelah a kâcai awh. Khenhaw! ahnimanaw teh atunglah hoi kanîloumlah hoi tho hanelah a kâcai awh. Ahnimouh teh Sinim ram hoi tho hanlah kâcai awh e naw doeh.
13 Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains: for Yhwh hath comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted.
Oe kalvannaw lunghawi hoi la sak awh haw. Oe talai lunghawi haw. Oe monnaw la sak awh haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni a taminaw a lung a pahawi. Runae kâhmonaw hai a pahren han.
14 But Zion said, Yhwh hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me.
Hateiteh, Zion ni, Jehovah ni na ceitakhai teh, Bawipa ni na pahnim toe ati.
15 Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.
Napui ni a ca a khe e hah, a pahren hoeh totouh, sanu a pânei lahun e camo a pahnim thai han na maw. Pahnim thai nakunghai kai ni na pahnim hoeh.
16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.
Kai ni ka kuttabei dawk ca ka thut teh, na kâkalupnae rapan teh ka hmalah pou ao.
17 Thy children shall make haste; thy destroyers and they that made thee waste shall go forth from thee.
Na canu capanaw ni karanglah a kâroe awh han. Nang karaphoenaw hoi, nang ka hmawt sak e naw ni na tâco takhai han.
18 Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee. As I live, saith Yhwh, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth.
Na tengpam vah khenhaw! Ahnimanaw teh a kamkhueng awh teh nang koe a tho awh. BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, Kai teh ka hring dawkvah, nang teh langa a kamthoup e patetlah phunkuep hoi na kamthoup dawkvah, rumram nahoeh ati.
19 For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away.
Raphoe teh kingdi e hmuen hoi ka rawk tangcoung e na ram teh, atuvah kho ka sak e apap dawkvah, abueng toe. Nangmouh na kapayawpnaw teh ahlanae koe ao awh han.
20 The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, The place is too strait for me: give place to me that I may dwell.
Na canaw a due hnukkhu, bout na tawm e capanaw ni hmuen khout awh mahoeh. A hmuen na poe ei telah a hei awh han.
21 Then shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am desolate, a captive, and removing to and fro? and who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these, where had they been?
Hatnavah, nang ni na lungthung hoi, hetnaw heh apinimouh na khe pouh aw, ka canaw be kadout niteh, madueng kaawm e, yuengyoe kâva e lah bout ka o. Hetnaw hah apinimouh a thokhai awh. Kai teh ka madueng kaawm e lah ka o dawkvah, hetnaw heh nâmouh ao awh aw na ti han.
22 Thus saith the Lord Yhwh, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.
Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei e teh, khenhaw! Kai ni khoram tangkuem kaawm e miphunnaw koe ka kut ka dâw teh, mitnoutnae hah ka vo pouh han. Ahnimouh ni nange na canu capanaw hah a kut hoi tawm awh vaiteh, a loung dawk hrawm awh vaiteh, a thokhai awh han.
23 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers: they shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am Yhwh: for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.
Siangpahrangnaw ni nange camo tawm awh vaiteh, siangpahrangnaw teh nange camo ka khoum e lah ao awh han. Na hmalah tabawk awh vaiteh, na khok dawk e vaiphu hah a palem awh han. Kai teh Jehovah lah ka o e hai thoseh, kai na kangaihawinaw teh kayanae a ohoehnae hai thoseh na panue han.
24 Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered?
Athakaawme kut dawk hoi hnopai lawp han na maw. Taki ka tho e san hah rungngang han na maw.
25 But thus saith Yhwh, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children.
BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, atangcalah, athakaawme ni man tangcoung e tami hah bout la han. Takitho e ni lawp tangcoung e lawphno hah bout la han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang ka taran e hah kai ni ka taran vaiteh, na capanaw hah ka rungngang han.
26 And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I Yhwh am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
Nang na karektapnaw hah amamae tak ka ca sak han. Amamae thi hah misurtui nei e patetlah koung ka boum lah a nei awh han. Hatdawkvah, kai Jehovah teh nang ka rungngangkung, nang karatangkung, Jakop miphun dawk athakaawme Cathut, ao tie hah tami pueng ni a panue awh han telah a dei.
