Isaiah 64
1 Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence,
Hmai neh thingpaem a hlae tih hmai loh tui a tlawk sak bangla na rhal rhoek taengah na ming ming sak ham ni,
2 As [when] the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, [that] the nations may tremble at thy presence!
na mikhmuh ah namtom rhoek khaw tlai uh ni.
3 When thou didst terrible things [which] we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down at thy presence.
Ka lamtawn pawt te a rhih om la na saii vaengah tlang rhoek na mikhmuh ah na suntlak sak tih moelh uh.
4 For since the beginning of the world [men] have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, [what] he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.
Khosuen lamloh ya uh noek pawt tih, hnakaeng uh pawh. Amah aka rhingda ham a saii namah phoeikah Pathen ti he mik loh ana hmuh moenih.
5 Thou meetest him that rejoiceth and worketh righteousness, [those that] remember thee in thy ways: behold, thou art wroth; for we have sinned: in those is continuance, and we shall be saved.
Aka ngaingaih tih na longpuei ah duengnah a saii neh nang aka poek rhoek te na doo. Nang khaw na thintoek coeng te. Tedae amih soah kumhal n'tholh dongah n'khang venim.
6 But we are all as an unclean [thing], and all our righteousnesses [are] as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Kaimih boeih he rhalawt la ka om uh tih kaimih kah duengnah boeih he pumbuk hni bangla om. Kaimih boeih he hawn bangla ka hoo uh tih kaimih thaesainah loh khohli bangla kaimih n'yawn.
7 And [there is] none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
Na ming aka khue ham neh nang saicin ham aka haeng khaw om pawh. Kaimih lamloh na maelhmai na thuh tih kaimih kah thaesainah kut ah kaimih nan paci sak.
8 But now, O LORD, thou [art] our father; we [are] the clay, and thou our potter; and we all [are] the work of thy hand.
Yahovah namah he kaimih napa ni. Kaimih he amlai ni, kaimih aka hlinsai khaw namah ni. Kaimih boeih he na kut kah a bitat ni.
9 Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever: behold, see, we beseech thee, we [are] all thy people.
BOEIPA na thin bahoeng toek sak aih boeh. Thaesainah khaw a yoeyah la poek boeh. Kaimih na pilnam boeih n'paelki laeh he.
10 Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
Namah kah khopuei cim rhoek te khosoek la poeh coeng. Zion khaw khosoek la Jerusalem khopong la poeh.
11 Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant things are laid waste.
Kaimih kah im cim neh kaimih kah boeimang, a pa rhoek loh nang thangthennah te hmai dongah ungkhang la poeh tih kaimih kah ngailaemnah boeih khaw imrhong la om.
12 Wilt thou refrain thyself for these [things], O LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
Te lalah khaw na thiim uh venim? BOEIPA nim na ngam vetih kaimih mat nan phaep aih veh.
