Isaiah 57
1 The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth [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 hither, ye 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 ye sport yourselves? against whom make ye a wide mouth, [and] draw out the tongue? [are] ye 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 clifts 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] thy portion; they, they [are] thy lot: even to them hast thou poured a drink offering, thou hast 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 Upon a lofty and high mountain hast thou set thy bed: even thither wentest thou 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 hast thou set up thy remembrance: for thou hast discovered [thyself to another] than me, and art gone up; thou hast enlarged thy bed, and made thee [a covenant] with them; thou lovedst their bed where thou sawest [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 thou wentest to the king with ointment, and didst increase thy perfumes, and didst send thy messengers far off, and didst debase [thyself even] unto 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 Thou art wearied in the greatness of thy way; [yet] saidst thou not, There is no hope: thou hast found the life of thine hand; therefore thou wast 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 hast thou been afraid or feared, that thou hast lied, and hast not remembered me, nor laid [it] to thy heart? have not I held my peace even of old, and thou fearest 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 thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit thee.
Na lannae hoi na tawksak e hah ka pâpho han. Hatei, cungkeinae awm mahoeh.
13 When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take [them: ] but he that putteth 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 ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way, take up the stumblingblock 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 saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth 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 unto 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, saith 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, saith my God, to the wicked.
Tamikathoutnaw hanelah roumnae awm hoeh telah ka Cathut ni ati.
