< Esias 48 >

1 Hear these [words], you house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and have come forth out of Juda, who swear by the name of the Lord God of Israel, making mention [of it, but] not with truth, nor with righteousness;
Oe Jakop imthung, Isarel telah min kaw e lah kaawm e, Judah tuikhu thung hoi ka lawng e Jehovah e min lahoi thoebo e, yuemkamcu hoeh e, a lawk hoi kamcu hoeh lah, Isarel Cathut min ka pholen e, ka lawk thai haw.
2 maintaining also the name of the holy city, and staying themselves on the God of Israel: the Lord of hosts is his name. The former things I have already declared;
Kathounge khopui taminaw telah amamouh a min a kâphung awh teh, ransahu BAWIPA lah kaawm e, Isarel Cathut kakânguenaw, ka lawk thai awh haw.
3 and they that have proceeded out of my mouth, and it became well known; I wrought suddenly, and [the events] came to pass.
Ka awm tangcoung e hnonaw hah, nangmouh koe ka dei toe. Ka pahni dawk hoi ka tâco sak teh, na thaisak awh toe. Tang ka sak dawkvah a kuep awh.
4 I know that you are stubborn, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your forehead brazen.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a lung ka patak e tami lah na o awh teh, na lahuen teh sumtaboung doeh. Na tampa teh rahum tampa doeh tie yo ka panue toe.
5 And I told you of old what [should be] before it came upon you; I made it known to you, lest you should say, [My] idols have done [it] for me; and should say, [My] graven and molten images have commanded me.
Ayan hoi doeh nangmouh koe ka dei toe. Hno a pha hoehnahlan na panue sak toe. Hatdawkvah, nang ni kaie meikaphawk teh na sak toe. Kai ni ka sakhlawn e meikaphawk, ka hlun e meikaphawk ni, hete hno a sak e doeh na ti payon awh han.
6 You have heard all this, but you have not known: yet I have made known to you the new things from henceforth, which are coming to pass, and you said not,
Na panue awh toe. Hetnaw pueng heh khenhaw! namamouh ni na dei awh mahoeh maw. Atu hoi teh hno katha na panue awh boihoeh e, ka panuek e lah na o awh han.
7 Now they come to pass, and not formerly: and you heard not of them in former days: say not you, Yes, I know them.
Hotnaw teh atu doeh sak e lah ao. Sut la sak e nahoeh. Nangmouh ni sahnin totouh na thai awh hoeh. Hatdawkvah, nangmouh ni yo la ka thai awh toe na te payon awh vaih.
8 You have neither known, nor understood, neither from the beginning have I opened your ears: for I knew that you would surely deal treacherously, and would be called a transgressor even from the womb.
Na panuek roeroe awh hoeh. Na thai boi awh hoeh. Ayan hoi na hnâkâko awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh yuem na kamcu hoeh. Vonthung hoi patenghai nang teh, kâlawk na ka tapoe e telah kaw e lah na o tie ka panue toe.
9 For mine own sake will I show you my wrath, and will bring before you my glorious acts, that I may not utterly destroy you.
Koung na raphoe awh hoeh nahanelah, ka min kecu dawk ka lungkhueknae teh, ka panguep han. Oup e lah ka o nahanelah, nangmouh dawk ka panguep han.
10 Behold, I have sold you, [but] not for silver; but I have rescued you from the furnace of affliction.
Khenhaw! na thoung sak awh toe. Hatei, ngun sôlêi e patetlah nahoeh. Rucatnae tahmanghmai hoi na tanouk awh han.
11 For mine own sake I will do [this] for you, because my name is profaned; and I will not give my glory to another.
Kama hanelah kai ni na sak han rah. Ka min teh bangkong a mathoe han. Bawilennae teh tami alouke koe ka poe mahoeh.
12 Hear me, O Jacob, and Israel whom I call; I am the first, and I endure for ever.
Oe Jakop hoi ka kaw e Isarel, Ka lawk thai awh haw. Kai teh Cathut doeh. Ahmaloe e hoi a hnukteng poung lahai ka o.
13 My hand also has founded the earth, and my right hand has fixed the sky: I will call them, and they shall stand together.
Ka kut ni talai du hah a ung. Aranglae kut hoi kalvannaw ka sak toe. Ka kaw teh hmuen touh koe a kamkhueng awh.
14 And all shall be gathered, and shall hear: who has told them these things? Out of love to you I have fulfilled your desire on Babylon, to abolish the seed of the Chaldeans.
Koung kamkhueng awh nateh, thai awh haw. Nangmouh thung dawk hoi apinimaw hete hnonaw hah a dei boi. BAWIPA a lung ka pataw e Babilon khopui dawk a ngainae a kuep sak han. A kut hah Khaldean taminaw koe a pha sak han.
15 I have spoken, I have called, I have brought him, and made his way prosperous.
Kai kama roeroe ni lawk ka dei. Ahni teh, ka kaw. Ka ceikhai vaiteh, a lamthung a cawn han.
16 Draw near to me, and hear you these words; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning: when it took place, there was I, and now the Lord, [even] the Lord, and his Spirit, has sent me.
Na hnai awh nateh, hete lawk hah thai awh haw. Apuengcue hoi arulahoi lawk ka dei boihoeh. Apuengcue hoi hawvah ka o toe. Atuvah, Bawipa Jehovah Cathut e Muitha ni kai hah na patoun toe.
17 Thus says the Lord that delivered you, the Holy One of Israel; I am your God, I have shown you how you should find the way wherein you should walk.
Nangmanaw na ka ratang e, Isarelnaw e Kathoung Poung e BAWIPA ni a dei e lawk teh, kai heh nangmae Jehovah na Cathut, na hawi awh nahanlah nangmouh na kacangkhaikung, na dawn awh hanelah lamthung dawk nangmouh ka cetkhai hanelah doeh ka o.
18 And if you had listened to my commandments, [then] would your peace have been like a river, and your righteousness as a wave of the sea.
Oe kâpoelawknaw na poe e tarawi awh haw khe. Hottelah na sak awh pawiteh, roumnae teh palang tui patetlah thoseh, na lannae teh tuipui tuicapa ka thaw e patetlah thoseh, ao han.
19 Your seed also would have been as the sand, and the offspring of your belly as the dust of the ground: neither now shall you by any means be utterly destroyed, neither shall your name perish before me.
Na catounnaw hai sadi patetlah pap vaiteh, na catounnaw hai sadi patetlah a pap awh han. A min teh ka hmaitung hoi raphoe e lah awm mahoeh.
20 Go forth of Babylon, you that flee from the Chaldeans: utter aloud a voice of joy, and let this be made known, proclaim it to the end of the earth; say you, The Lord has delivered his servant Jacob.
Babilon khopui thung hoi tâcawt awh. Khaldeannaw hai yawng takhai awh. Hetheh, la sak pawlawk hoi thai sak nateh, dei awh. Talai pout totouh kamthang sak awh. BAWIPA ni a san Jakop hah a ratang toe telah dei awh atipouh.
21 And if they shall thirst, he shall lead them through the desert; he shall bring forth water to them out of the rock: the rock shall be cloven, and the water shall flow forth, and my people shall drink.
Thingyeiyawn lahoi a hrawi awh navah, tui kahran boi awh hoeh. Lungsong thung hoi ahnimouh han tui a lawng sak. Lungsong a kâbawng sak teh, tui hah a tâco sak.
22 There is no joy, says the Lord, to the ungodly.
Tami kahawihoehnaw hanelah, roumnae awm hoeh telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
