< Esias 1 >

1 The vision which Esaias the son of Amos saw, which he saw against Juda, and against Jerusalem, in the reign of Ozias, and Joatham, and Achaz, and Ezekias, who reigned over Judea.
Amoz chapa Isaiah-in Juda lengho Uziah, Jotham, Ahaz leh Hezekiah phat laiya Judah le Jerusalem chungchang gaova thil amuho:
2 Hear, O heaven, and listen, O earth: for the Lord has spoken, [saying], I have begotten and reared up children, but they have rebelled against me.
Vanho ngaiyun! leisetnin phaten ngaiyun! Pakaiyin asei chu hiche hi ahi: “Kahin vahkhang leh kahin seiletsah chaten kachungah nachonseuvin neidou tauve.
3 The ox knows his owner, and the ass his master's crib: but Israel does not know me, and the people has not regarded me.
Bongchal jengin jong apupa akihetnin, chule Sanganin jong apu’n apehna kong akihetnin, ahinlah kamiten vang amaho kahin vahkhang dan ahephapouvin, Israelin apupa akihettapoi.
4 Ah sinful nation, a people full of sins, an evil seed, lawless children: you have forsaken the Lord, and provoked the Holy One of Israel.
Ohe themmona dimsette chonse nam mite, gitlouna thilbol chilhahho; themmona dimset mite, hiche mite hin a-Pakaiyu adalhatauvin, Israel Mithengpa chu donselouvin akoiyun ajamsan tauve.
5 Why should you be struck [any] more, transgressing more and more? the whole head is pained, and the whole heart sad.
Ipi dinga gimbolna ding nakikou bebeu hitam? Itih chan gei neidou nahlai diu ham? naluchang apumin anatan, nalungchang jong ana’n ahi.
6 From the feet to the head, there is no soundness in them; neither wound, nor bruise, nor festering ulcer [are healed]: it is not possible to apply a plaister, nor oil, nor bandages.
Nakengtoa pat nalujang chan adam lai mong mong aumtapon, akita-dupna jeng, apat lai jeng chule athi lonna maha jeng ahi’n, anaikolin, tom jong akitompon, thao jong akinupoi.
7 Your land is desolate, your cities burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is made desolate, overthrown by strange nations.
Nagamsungu jong ahomkeovin alumtan, nakhopiu jong akavamtai. Namitmu tah'un gamdang miten nagam’u alosohtan, thil jouse amitmuva amu jouseu asusetauve.
8 The daughter of Sion shall be deserted as a tent in a vineyard, and as a storehouse of fruits in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.
Jerusalem khopi hoitah chu lengpi leiya buh kisong tobang leh changmai leiya buh kisong bangin, akidalhan avengbit ding umlou khopi abangtai.
9 And if the Lord of Sabaoth had not left us a seed, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been made like Gomorrha.
Pakai van-khopi sepaihon eiho themkhat jeng jong eivenbitlouvu hileh Sodom le Gomorrah tobanga thehngima ium diu ahi.
10 Hear the word of the Lord, you rulers of Sodoma; attend to the law of God, you people of Gomorrha.
Sodom khoa vaihom lamkaihon Pakai thusei ngaiyun lang, Gomorrah miten Pathen dan thupeh ngaiyun.
11 Of what [value] to me is the abundance of your sacrifices? says the Lord: I am full of whole burnt offerings of rams; and I delight not in the fat of lambs, and the blood of bulls and goats:
Pakaiyin aseiye: “Nakilhainau jouseu hi ka-ipi phatchomna umdinga nagelluham? Keiman kelngoichal pumgo thilto le gancha kivah thaotahtah jong kaneiye. Keiman bongchal tampi thisan leh kelngoi thisan chule kelcha thisan hijongleh kakipapipoi.
12 neither shall you come [with these] to appear before me; for who has required these things at your hands? You shall no more tread my court.
Keima eihou dinga nahung tenguleh koiham nakithoinau puma ka-inpi chonthang dinga nakouvu?
13 Though you bring fine flour, [it is] vain; incense is an abomination to me; I can’t bear your new moons, and your sabbaths, and the great day;
Pannabei thiltoho chu hinpolut tahih-un, nagimnamtuiyu jong keima dinga thet-umtah ahi! Lhathah nikho, Sabbath nikho chuleh achombeha na-anngol nikho manhou chonset bulom leh adihlou ahi. Nakikhopkhomnau jong kadeitapoi.
14 [your] fasting, and rest from work, your new moons also, and your feasts my soul hates: you have become loathsome to me; I will no more pardon your sins.
Nalhathah kut bolhou, kumlhun golnop nabolhou jong keidinga pohgih bep ahin, abonchan kapochimtan, kakidah ahitai!
15 When you stretch forth your hands, I will turn away mine eyes from you: and though you make many supplications, I will not listen to you; for your hands are full of blood.
Vanlam sanga nakhut-u natundohuva natao tengu jongleh kahungvetnuva nataonau kangailhahpehlou ding ahi. Ajeh chu khohelouho thisan nakhutnuvah adimsetne.
16 Wash you, be clean; remove your iniquities from your souls before mine eyes; cease from your iniquities;
Nangho kisilngimuvin lang chule kisuthengun! Nachonset nau chu kamitmun paimangun, nachonset nau lampi chu dalhauvin,
17 learn to do well; diligently seek judgment, deliver him that is suffering wrong, plead for the orphan, and obtain justice for the widow.
Thilphabol dan kithemchuh-un, thudih chu holun. Bolgentheina thoh ho chu panpiuvin, naochagaho chu thu adih-in tanpeh-uvin lang, vengphauvin. Meithaiho chu thildih jeng seipeh-un.”
18 And come, let us reason together, says the Lord: and though your sins be as purple, I will make them white as snow; and though they be as scarlet, I will make [them] white as wool.
Pakaiyin hiti hin aseiye, “Hungun kihoutoh-u hite. Nachonset nau chu thisan bangin san jongleh buhbang banga kabansah ding, sandup jeju jongleh kelngoi mul jolsel tobanga kajolsah ding ahi.
19 And if you be willing, and listen to me, you shall eat the good of the land:
Kathupeh nanit-uleh nanghon nehlechah ninglhingset’na nanei diu ahi.
20 but if you be not willing, nor listen to me, a sword shall devour you: for the mouth of the Lord has spoken this.
Ahinlah kathupeh nanitlou-uva nakiheimangsanule namelmateu chemjama lousoh helding nahiuve, tia na-Pakaiyu keiman kaseipeh nahitauve!”
21 How has the faithful city Sion, [once] full of judgment, become a harlot! wherein righteousness lodged, but now murderers.
I-atileh Jerusalem khopi kitahtah chu notia pang jenga hitam? Thu adih-a kitanna khopia chun tuhin tolthana jengin aumtai.
22 Your silver is worthless, your wine merchants mix the wine with water.
Nadangka thih chu twieh asohgamtan, nalengpi twi chihtah chu twi toh akichohhal gamtai.
23 Your princes are rebellious, companions of thieves, loving bribes, seeking after rewards; not pleading for orphans, and not heeding the cause of widows.
Namilen milalteu jong doumahmah bolin apangun, gucha michomho jol le golin apang tauve. Nehguh chahguh adelleleuvin, nulou palouho thule meithaiho thujong adih-in atanpeh nom tapouve.
24 Therefore thus says the Lord, the Lord of hosts, Woe to the mighty [men] of Israel; for my wrath shall not cease against mine adversaries, and I will execute judgment on mine enemies.
Hijehchun Pakai, vantil galsatte Pakai Hatchungnung, Israel Pakai chun aseiye, “Keiman kamelmate chunga phuba kalah ding ahi.
25 And I will bring my hand upon you, and purge you completely, and I will destroy the rebellious, and will take away from you all transgressors.
Nachunga kakhut kalha ding, nathih-eh thengsella kathehngima nasum kilhajol chengse kaloikhensohkei ding ahi.
26 And I will establish your judges as before, and your counselors as at the beginning: and afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness, the faithful mother-city of Sion.
Chutengleh thutan vaihomthemho masang banga kahinpeh kit ding, Jerusalem khopi chu Thudih-a Kivaihomna Khopi chule Khopi Kitah tia kisei kit ding ahitai,” ati.
27 For her captives shall be saved with judgment, and with mercy.
Zion chu thudih-a akitan teng kiledoh kit ding chule akisihho chu chonphatnaa kiledoh kit diu ahitai.
28 And the transgressors and the sinners shall be crushed together, and they that forsake the Lord shall be utterly consumed.
Michonseho vang suhmanga umding ahiuve, ijeh-inem itileh amaho Pakai hengah akile nompouve.
29 For they shall be ashamed of their idols, which they delighted in, and they are made ashamed of the gardens which they coveted.
Namilim hounau leh aguh-a gangpithing noi laha nachonnau leh milim houna'a nakipehdohnau jeh'a jumleja nathoh diu ahi.
30 For they shall be as a turpentine tree that has cast its leaves, and as a garden that has no water.
Anagopsa gangpi phung nabah diu, chule twilutlouna honlei toh nabah diu ahi.
31 And their strength shall be as a thread of tow, and their works as sparks, and the transgressors and the sinners shall be burnt up together, and there shall be none to quench [them].
Nalahuva ahatpenpa jong chu changpol tobanga mangthah ding; athilbol dihlouhou chu meisipah mei chohkaiya pang ding, amaho le athildihlou bolhou chu meikong lah-a kachaiyintin, chuleh meikong chu aphelmit thei ding koima umponte.
