< Isaiah 43 >
1 But now thus hath said the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not; for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; mine art thou.
Hijongleh tun, Vo Jacob nasempa PAKAI sei ngaijin. Vo Israel, nagong dohpa chun aseije, “Kicha hih in, ajeh chu Keima’n nangma kachohdohsa nahitai. Keima’n namin’a kakou nahin; nangma keija nahi.
2 Whenever thou passest through the waters, I am with thee; and through the rivers, —they shall not overflow thee: whenever thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be scorched; neither shall the flame burn on thee.
Twithuh lah najot tengleh, Keiman kaumpi ding nahi. Hahsatna vadung najot tengleh, twija nalhahlut lou ding ahi. Kibolsetna meilah napal teng jongleh, meiyin nahalkhah lou ding; meiyin nakah louhel ding ahi.
3 For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour; I have given Egypt for thy ransom, Cush and Seba in place of thee.
Ajeh iham itileh Keima Pakai, na Patehn kahi, Israelte mithengpa, na Huhhingpu chu kahi. Keiman Aigupta chu nacham lhatna dinga nakilhat dohna ding’a kapeh nahin; Nangma muna Ethiopia le Seba chu kapehdoh ahitai.
4 Since thou art precious in my eyes, art honorable, and I indeed do love thee: therefore will I give men in place of thee, and nations instead of thy soul.
Nangma keima dinga sahlut tah nahi jeh in, nangho khella midang chu kaphal doh a. nangma dinga ahin nau chu kapehdoh ahitai. Keima’n Kangailut nahi jeh’a nangma jabolna changa nahije.
5 Fear not, for I am with thee; from the east will I bring thy seed, and from the west will I gather thee.
Kichahih in, ajeh chu Keiman kaum pinai. Keiman nangma le nachilhah ho chu solam le lhum lama kona kachop khom ding nahiuve.
6 I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Withhold not: bring my sons from afar, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
Keiman sahlam le lhanglam jah’a, kachapate le kachanute chu leiset kolkim vella konin Israel’a hin puilutnin kati ding ahi.
7 Every one that is called by my name, and whom I have created for my glory; whom I have formed; yea, whom I have made.
Keima a Pathenna einei jouse chu hin puijin, ajeh chu keiman amaho chu kaloupina dinga kasem ahi. Keima amaho sempa chu kahi.
8 Bring forward the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.
Mit neija ahia kho mulou, bilkol neija khojalou ho chu mipi lah’a konin hinpuidoh un.
9 Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can announce this? and cause us to hear former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth.
Chitin-namtin chu hinpui khomun! Vannoi mite chu hinkhom tup’uvin! Milim semthu anei’u chun hitobang hung lhung ding hi aseimasat khah em? Jinga ipi ahungso ding aseithei pen aumna diu vem? Hitobang thuseidoh hettohsah hoiya um uvem? Amaho chun thutah asei’u ahi tia aphotchetna pengam aumna dem?
10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: in order that ye may know and believe me, and understand, that I am he; before me there was no god formed, and after me there will be none.
Hinla nangma keima hettohsah a panga nahiuve, Vo Israel! Tin Pakaijin aseije. Nangma kalhacha nahi. Nangma hi keima eihechen dinga, eitahsan dinga, chule Keima bouhi Pathen kahi ti hetkhen themna neija nahi. Pathen dang aumpon-Itih’a jong ana um khalou, chule itih’a jong umkhalou ding ahi.
11 I, I am the Lord; and beside me there is no saviour.
Kei, Keima tah hi, Pakai chu Kahi, chule Huhhingpu dang aumpoi.
12 I myself have announced it, and I have saved, and I have let it be heard, and there was no strange [god] among you; and ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and I am God.
Amasatah in huhdoh a naum diu thudol kaphon peh’uvin, chuphatnin kahuhdoh’un chule vannoiya kaseiphongin ahi. Koima cha gamdang pathenin hiche hi abol khapoi. Keima bou Pathen kahi hi nangho ahettohsah a panga nahiuve, tin PAKAIyin aseije.
13 Yea, from the [first] day am I he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: if I will work, is there one that can hinder it?
Tonsotna pat tonsot geija Keima Pathen kahi. Koiman kakhutna kona koima alahdoh theilou dingu ahi. Katohdohsa chunga koima’n imalou sotheiponte.
14 Thus hath said the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, For your sake did I send to Babylon, and in swift vessels brought I them all down, and the Chaldeans, in the ships of their joyful song.
Hiche hi Na Huhhingpu, Israel Mitheng Khat kitipa Pakai chun asei ahije: “Nangho jal'a keiman Babylon douna’a galmi honkhat kasoldoh ding, Banylon miten” akithang atpiu akong innei houva chu jamdoh dingu ahi.
15 I am the Lord, the Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.
Keima Pakai, nangho Athengpa Khat, Israel sempa le Lengpa chu kahi.
16 Thus hath said the Lord, who maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;
Keima Pakai twi lah’a lampi hin hongdohpa, twikhanglen’a tolgo hin umdohsahpa chu kahi.
17 Who bringeth forth chariot and horse, army and power: together shall they lie down, they shall not rise up again; they are extinct, like a wick are they quenched.
Keiman Aigupta galhat ho chu asakol ho’u le asakol kangtalaiho’u pumin kakoudoh in, keiman amaho chu twi kinong sunga kanolutnin, ahileh alha lhum tauve. Chule ahinkhou chu khoilu thaomei pat kihal kisumit jouva jemkai to abanguve.
18 Remember not the former things, and ancient events regard no more.
Hijongleh hiho jouse chu sumil jengun- Keiman kahinbol ding hitoh imacha dang atepithei ding aumpoi.
19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now shall it spring forth; will ye not acknowledge it? I will even make in the wilderness a way, and in the desert rivers.
Ajeh chu keiman thilthah khat kabol ding ahi. Veuvin, kapantai! Muloulai nahiu vem? Gamthip laiya kenglampi kalhundoh ding ahi! Gamgo gam’a chu keiman vadung kahin lonsah ding ahi.
20 The beasts of the field shall honor me, the monsters and the ostriches; because I give waters in the wilderness, rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my elect;
Loujao hoa gamsa ho, si’al ho le sumbupi jeng hon jong gamthip gam'a twi kapeh jeh’uva eichoi’at dingu ahi. Hitia chu keiman gam gotna leimuna jong chu vadung ho kalonsah ding, hichun kalhendoh mite hung kidodoh tauvinte.
21 This people which I have formed for myself; my praise shall they relate.
Keiman Israel chu keima’a dingin kakisemtai, chule amaho chun nikhat le vannoi pumpi masanga jabolna eipeh dingu ahi.
22 But on me hast thou not called, O Jacob; for thou art become weary of me, O Israel.
Hinla Jacob insung mi deitahte, nanghon kapanpi dingin nanom hih laijuve. Vo Israel, nanghon keima neichim chah lheh jenguve!
23 Thou hast not brought unto me the lamb of thy burnt-offerings; and with thy sacrifices hast thou not honored me: I have not troubled thee with meat-offerings, nor wearied thee with frankincense.
Nanghon kelngoi le kelcha hoa kilhaina pumgo thilto dingin neihin choipeh pouvin ahi. Lousoh ga thilto hoa chule bego-gim namtui thilto hoa kilhaina thiltoa ‘neija bol tapouvin, keiman nangho ahahsa pohgih pohsah louva chule nagimna diu ima ngeh lou hel kahi.
24 Thou hast not bought for me sweet cane, and with the fat of thy sacrifices hast thou not satisfied me; but thou hast troubled me with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thy iniquities.
Nanghon bego- gim namtui le kilhaina thilto thao ho neihin choipeh pon ahi. Chusangin nachonset poh gihho neipoh sah in chule nathemona houva neitha cholsah tauvin ahi.
25 I, it is I that blot out thy transgressions for my own sake, and thy sins I will not remember.
Kei, Keima bouvin, keima tah kahi jal'a bou nachonsetna ho kachul mangin chule hicho chu gelkit talou ding kahi.
26 Put me in remembrance; let us plead together: relate thou, in order that thou mayest be justified.
Athil umdol velvet khom kitnu hitin, chule nathemo louna thudol nakisei thei ding ahi.
27 Thy first father did sin, and they that plead for thee transgressed against me.
Atil laipeh’a kipatna napu napate ho’uvin keidouna’a anachonseuvin, nalamkai ho jouseuvin kadan thu apalkeh tauve.
28 Therefore do I profane the holy princes, and I give up Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.
Hijeh’a chu na thempu hou toh kakinopmo’uva chule Jacob dinga amahthahna hel kathu lhuh’a chule Israel dinga jachatna soh’a ahitai.
