< Esias 49 >

1 Listen to me, you islands; and attend, you Gentiles; after a long time it shall come to pass, says the Lord: from my mother's womb he has called my name:
Agamla gam hoa umjousen kasei ngaijun! Gamla tah’a hon lunglutnin ngaijuvin! Pakaiyin kapen lhah masanga einakou ahitai; naobu sunga kaumna’a Ama’n kamin'a einakou ahitai.
2 and he has made my mouth as a sharp sword, and he has hid me under the shadow of his hand; he has made me as a choice shaft, and he has hid me in his quiver;
Aman geltoh’a thu kaseiho chu chemjam bangin ahemsah’e. Aman akhut lea eisellin, keima Ama livathei’a thalchang tobang kahi.
3 and said to me, You are my servant, O Israel, and in you I will be glorified.
Aman kajah’a: ‘Israel, nangma kalhachapa nahi, chule keima loupina’a neilut pi ding ahi,”tin aseije.
4 Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have given my strength for vanity and for nothing: therefore is my judgment with the Lord, and my labor before my God.
Keima’n ka donbutnin, “Hijongleh katoh hi phatchomna bei abang jenge! Keiman katha hi pana beija mangcha’a le abidoi beija kabang jenge. Hinla keiman aboncha Pakai khutna ngama kahin; kachan ding kipaman Pathen’a ngam ding kahi.
5 And now, thus says the Lord that formed me from the womb to be his own servant, to gather Jacob to him and Israel. I shall be gathered and glorified before the Lord, and my God shall be my strength.
Chule tun Pakaiyin aseijin, Kanu oisunga alhacha dinga eihin gonga, Israel chu Ama koma dinga hinle pui dinga ei’soldohpa ahi. Pakaiyin eijabollin, chule Ka Pathen’in thahatna eipei.
6 And he said to me, [It is] a great thing for you to be called my servant, to establish the tribes of Jacob, and to recover the dispersion of Israel: behold, I have given you for the covenant of a race, for a light of the Gentiles, that you should be for salvation to the end of the earth.
Ama’n aseije, “Nangman Israelte chu kahenga dinga na kiledohsah mai maibep ding ahipoi. Keima’n nangma Gentel tedinga vah’a ka pansah ding, chule ka huhhingna chu leiset kolkimvel’a napoh le ding ahitai.
7 Thus says the Lord that delivered you, the God of Israel, Sanctify him that despises his life, him that is abhorred by the nations that are the servants of princes: kings shall behold him, and princes shall arise, and shall worship him, for the Lord's sake: for the Holy One of Israel is faithful, and I have chosen you.
Pakai, Huhhingpu le Israel Mithengpa chun namtin vaipi nahsahmo le deilouva kibolpa, vaipo ho lhacha’a pangpa hengah: Nangma na chepetnin lengho chun jana napeh dingu, leng chapate ho jong hung kun ding ahiuve, ajeh chu, Pakai tahsan umtah pa, Israel dinga Athengpa, na deilhenpa jal hiding ahi.
8 Thus says the Lord, In an acceptable time have I heard you, and in a day of salvation have I succored you: and I have formed you, and given you for a covenant of the nations, to establish the earth, and to cause to inherit the desert heritages:
Hiche hi Pakaiyin asei chu: “Aphatcha, keiman kadonbut ding nahi. “Huhhingna nikhoa keiman kalethuh ding nahi. Keiman nangma kavenbitna chule amahoto kakitepna dung jui’a kapeh ding nahi. Nangma’a konna Israel gam avel’a ka tundoh kitding chule amite avella ka nganse kitding ahi.
9 saying to them that are in bonds, Go forth; and [bidding] them that are in darkness show themselves. They shall be fed in all the ways, and in all the paths [shall be] their pasture.
Keiman sohchang jah’a, ‘Chamlhatnin hung potdoh'in, chule muthim lah’a umho jah’a, ‘vah sung’a hungin.’ Amaho ka kelngoi hi diu chule mol ho atilla imacha kelouna muna chu ne’a lha le dingu ahitai.
10 They shall not hunger, neither shall they thirst; neither shall the heat nor the sun strike them; but he that has mercy on them shall comfort [them], and by fountains of waters shall he lead them.
Amaho gilkel kit talou dingu chule dangchah kit talou hel dingu ahitai. Nisa satnin amaho aphah kit tahlou hel dingu ahitai. Ajeh iham itileh Pakai Amilungsetna chun amaho apui le dingu; Aman amaho chu twi dap jin jen muna apui ding ahi.
11 And I will make every mountain a way, and every path a pasture to them.
Chule Keiman ka lhang sang ho chu lampia kijotna thei hoa seming ting, sem toh ing ting, chule phaicham ho chung vum'a Kalam lhongpi ho chu kisem ding ahije.
12 Behold, these shall come from far: [and] these from the north and the west, and others from the land of the Persians.
Vetemin, ka mite chu gamla tah gam'a kona hung kilekit’uvintin, sahlam le lhumlam gam hoa konin, chule Aigupta gam noilam peh’a konna hung ding ahiuve.
13 Rejoice, you heavens; and let the earth be glad: let the mountains break forth [with] joy; for the Lard has had mercy on his people, and has comforted the lowly ones of his people.
Vo vanho, kipah in la sauvin! Vo leiset, kipah thanomin umun! Vo Lhangho lasa dingin pohjah jenguvin. Ajeh chu Pakaiyin amite alhamonin chule athoh gim nau chunga akhoton ahi.
14 But Sion said, The Lord has forsaken me, and, The Lord has forgotten me.
Ahijeng vang'in Jerusalem’in aseijin, “Pakaiyin ei nungsun tauve; Pakaiyin ei sumil del tauve,”ati.
15 Will a woman forget her child, so as not to have compassion upon the offspring of her womb? but if a woman should even forget these, yet I will not forget you, says the Lord.
Hinaisai louve! Mi nun acha noichep sah lai asuh mil thei ding hija ham? Aman ahinsa acha chu ngailu louva umthei ding ham? Hijong chu hithei maithei ding hijongleh, Keiman nangho hi suhmil louhel ding kahi.
16 Behold, I have painted your walls on my hands, and you are continually before me.
Veuvin, Keiman namin chu kakhut phang teni chunga kajih lut tai. Kalung gel jousea Jerusalem bang kiphelha’amang thahsa ho chu aki lang jinge.
17 And you shall soon be built by those by whom you were destroyed, and they that made you desolate shall go forth of you.
Gangtah’a nachilhah ho chu hung kile kit diu, chule nasumang go jou seu chu chemang diu ahitai.
18 Lift up your eyes round about, and look on them all; behold, they are gathered together, and are come to you. [As] I live, says the Lord, you shall clothe yourself with them all as with an ornament, and put them on as a bride her attire.
Dahdoh unlang chule veuvin, ajeh chu na chateu chu abonuva nahenguva hung kile kit ding ahiuve, Keima kahing jingnai, tin Pakaiyin aseije: Amaho chu kijepnaho le mounu kijepnaho tobanga navetsah ding ahitai.
19 For your desert and marred and ruined [places] shall now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that devoured you shall be removed far from you.
Nanghon nanung sun dehset nau nagam leiset’u chu namite kititna mun hung hiding ahitai. Soh’a navul’uva pangho chu gamla tah ‘a che mang diu ahitai.
20 For your sons whom you have lost shall say in your ears, The place [is too] narrow for me: make room for me that I may dwell.
Akipui mang nauva ana peng khang miteho chu hung kinung le diu chule asei diu chu: Keihon mun kangaicha beuve! Miho atam kitit behseh tauve, tia ahinsei dingu ahi.
21 And you shall say in your heart, Who has begotten me these? whereas I [was] childless, and a widow; but who has brought up these for me? and I was left alone; but whence came these to me?
Chuteng leh, nangman, ‘Hiche chilhah ho jouse hi kon einapeh hija ham? tia nalunga nagel ding ahi. Ajeh chu ka chate atamjo pi chu akithat gam'a ahitan, chule amoh chengse chu gam danga kipui manguva ahitai. Keima bou hi hiche muna hi kachang seh’a eikidalha ahibouve. Hiche miteho hi hoiya konna hung hiu vem? Hiche chapangho hi koi hin hiu vem? Keima dinga kon eihin sindohpeh’u ahi dem?
22 Thus says the Lord, [even] the Lord, Behold, I lift up mine hand to the nations, and I will lift up my signal to the islands: and they shall bring your sons in [their] bosom, and shall bear your daughters on [their] shoulders.
Hiche hi Hatchungnungpen Pakaiyin asei chu ahi, “Ven, Keiman Pathen ngaisah lou nam mite vetsahna kapeh ding ahi. Ama hon nachapa neocha chaho chu abanjal’uva apoh ding’u; nachanu teu chu a lengkou’uva ahin poh dingu ahi.
23 And kings shall be your nursing fathers, and their princesses your nurses, they shall bow down to you on the face of the earth, and shall lick the dust of your feet; and you shall know that I am the Lord, and they that wait on me shall not be ashamed.
Lengho le Lengnu hon najen le dingu chule na ngaichat hou jouse avetsui dingu ahi. Amaho chu tolla hung kun diu chule nakenga vutvai ho chu ahung le ngim diu ahi. Amaho chun Keima Pakai kitipa chu kahin, keima eitahsan ho chu itih chan hijongleh jachatna toh pouvinte.
24 Will any one take spoils from a giant? and if one should take [a man] captive unjustly, shall he be delivered?
Gal hatpa’a konna athil chomdoh ho chu alahpeh ngam’a koi hija chule gilou tah vaipopa’a konna asohchang chu kon alha doh ding ham?
25 For thus says the Lord, If one should take a giant captive, he shall take spoils, and he who takes [them] from a mighty [man] shall be delivered: for I will plead your cause, and I will deliver your children.
Hinla Pakaiyin aseije:”Gal bolpa sohchangho chu kilhadoh ding, chule gilou tah’a thil kichom doh chu kilemu kit ding ahi. Ajeh chu nangma gal’a nasat ho gal’a kisat ding, chule keiman nachate kahuhdoh ding ahi.
26 And they that afflicted you shall eat their own flesh; and they shall drink their own blood as new wine, and shall be drunken: and all flesh shall perceive that I am the Lord that delivers you, and that upholds the strength of Jacob.
Keiman na melmate chu amaho atahsau chu kale nehsah ding ahi. Ama hon athisan’u vadung tobanga long chu adon dingu ahi. Vannoi pum pin Keima, Pakai, na huhhingpa’u le na Chodoh pau, Israel dinga hatchungnung chu kahi.
