< Isaiah 45 >
1 Thus hath said the Lord to his anointed, to Cyrus, whom I have taken hold of by his right hand, to subdue nations before him, even the loins of kings will I ungird, to open before him [city-]doors, and gates that they shall not be shut;
BAWIPA ni satui a awi e Sairas miphun hah a hmalah tabut sak hane hoi, siangpahrangnaw e taisawm rading sak hane hoi, a hmalah tho paawng sak hane hoi, kalupnae longkha khan hoeh nahanelah, aranglae kut hoi ka man e koevah hettelah a dei.
2 I myself will go before thee, and proud eminences will I level: doors of brass will I break in pieces, and bolts of iron will I cut asunder.
Kai ni na hmalah ka cei vaiteh, kânging hoeh e hah ka kânging sak han. Rahum longkha hah be ka raphoe vaiteh, tarennae thing hai be ka bouk han.
3 And I will give unto thee the treasures of darkness, and riches hidden in secret places; in order that thou mayest know that I am the Lord, who call thee by thy name, the God of Israel;
BAWIPA min ka kaw e Isarel Cathut lah ka o e hah na panue thai nahan, khohmo thung e râw hah na poe vaiteh, hro e hnopai hah na poe han.
4 For the sake of my servant Jacob, and Israel my elect; and I have called thee by thy name: I have designated thee, though thou hast not known me.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka san Jakop hoi ka rawi e Isarelnaw kecu dawk ka min lahoi na kaw e a tho. Kai na panuek awh hoeh eiteh min na phung awh.
5 I am the Lord, and there is none else, beside me there is no god; I assisted thee, though thou hast not known me.
Kai teh Jehovah doeh, alouke khoeroe awm hoeh. Kai hoeh laipateh Cathut alouke roeroe awm hoeh.
6 In order that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from its setting, that there is nothing without me. I am the Lord, and there is no one else;
Kai hloilah alouke khoeroe awm hoeh tie hah kanîtho koehoi kanîloum totouh a panue thai awh nahan, na panue awh hoeh nakunghai, na keng na yeng pouh han. Kai teh Jehovah doeh alouke khoeroe awm hoeh.
7 Forming the light, and creating darkness; making peace, and creating evil: I the Lord do all these things.
Angnae ka sak teh hmonae ka o sak, roumnae ka o sak, yawthoenae hai ka o sak, hete hnopueng ka sak e BAWIPA kai doeh.
8 Drop down ye heavens, and let the skies distil blessing; let the earth open and let them [all] be fruitful of prosperity, and let righteousness spring up likewise: I the Lord have created it.
Kalvannaw lathueng lahoi khorak sak haw, Tâmainaw lannae kho awi haw. Talai kamawng nateh rungngangnae hoi lannae paw awh naseh. Kai Jehovah ni hottelah ka o sak.
9 Woe unto him that contendeth with the one who formed him—a potsherd among the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?
Ama kasakkung ka taran e teh a yawkathout e lah ao. Talai hlaam thung dawk e hlaam rumram e ni, kasakkung koe bangpatet e lah maw na sak atipouh han maw. Hoehpawiteh, na kut ni a sak thai e banghai na thoum e awm hoeh ati han na maw.
10 Woe unto him that saith unto [his] father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What bringest thou forth?
A na pa koe bangpatet e maw na khe, a manu koe bangpatet e maw na vawn, ka tet e tami teh a yawthoe.
11 Thus hath said the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and he who hath formed him, About events to come will you ask me? concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands will ye command me?
Isarelnaw e Jehovah, Kathounge ni a dei e teh, ka tho hane hno hah kai koe het haw. Ka capanaw e kong hoi ka thaw tawk e kong dawk kâ na poe awh haw.
12 [When] I myself have made the earth, and created man upon it; [when] I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and I have ordained all their host.
Talai ka sak teh avan kaawm e tami ka sak. Ka kut hoi kalvan ka phai teh ransahu hah kâ ka poe.
13 I myself have waked him up in righteousness, and all his ways will I make straight: he shall build my city, and my exiles shall he dismiss free, not for purchase-money nor for presents, saith the Lord of hosts.
Ama teh lannae hoi ka kangdue sak teh, a lamthungnaw hah kalan sak han. Ka khopui hah a kangdue sak han. Thongim paung e ka taminaw hah aphu laipalah, tawkphu hai patho laipalah, cetsak naseh telah ransahu BAWIPA ni a ti.
14 Thus hath said the Lord, The labor of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and of the Sabeans, men of high stature, shall pass over unto thee, and thine shall they be: behind thee shall they walk; in chains shall they pass along, and unto thee shall they bow, unto thee shall they pray, [saying] Yea, only among thee is God; and there is no one else beside God.
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, Izipnaw patetlah thawtawkkung hoi Ethiopia hno kayawtnaw hoi Sabeanaw ka rasang poung e naw hah nangmouh koe a tho awh vaiteh, na hnukkâbang e lah ao awh han. Sumrui pâkhi laihoi a tho awh han. Hottelah tabo nalaihoi barinae na poe awh han. Cathut teh nangmouh koe ao katang doeh. Alouklah khoeroe awm hoeh. Cathut alouke khoeroe awm hoeh telah nangmouh koe kâheinae a sak awh han.
15 Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.
Oe Isarel Cathut, rungngangkung ama lungpouk lahoi kâhrawk e Cathut roeroe doeh.
16 They are ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: together shall they go to confusion that are makers of idols.
Yeiraipo hoi ao awh han, abuemlah kayanae hoi ao awh han. Meikaphawk kasaknaw hah pouknae awm laipalah rei a cei awh han.
17 [But] Israel shall be helped by the Lord with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed and not be confounded unto all eternity.
Isarelnaw hah yungyoe hloutnae hoi BAWIPA ni a rungngang han. A yungyoe hoi a yungyoe totouh poutnae awm laipalah kayayeirai awm mahoeh toe.
18 For thus hath said the Lord the creator of the heavens; he, the God that formed the earth and made it; he that hath established it, —not for naught did he create it, to be inhabited did he form it: I am the Lord; and there is no one else.
Kalvan kasakkung BAWIPA ni ama teh Cathut, talai hai kasakkung lah ao. Ama ni talai hah a cak sak. Banglahai ka tho hoeh lah sak hoeh, tami o nahanelah a sak e doeh. Hettelah a dei, kai teh BAWIPA lah ka o, alouke khoeroe awm hoeh.
19 Not on a secret spot have I spoken, in a dark place of the earth; I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me for naught; [but] I the Lord speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.
Arulah hoi hmonae dawk lawk ka dei boihoeh. Ka rawi e Jakop miphun koe na tawng awh ka tet pouh boihoeh. Kai BAWIPA ni lannae lawk ka dei teh, kalan e lawk hah ouk ka dei.
20 Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye escaped fugitives of the nations! They have no knowledge that carry the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save.
Kamkhueng awh nateh tho awh haw. Miphun ka kuep reknae dawk hoi ka hlout e naw, cungtalah na hnai awh haw. Thing meikaphawk kasaknaw, tami ka rungngang thai hoeh e, cathut koe ouk karatoumnaw ni panuenae roeroe tawn awh hoeh.
21 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: Who hath announced this in ancient times? told it from the beginning? is it not I the Lord? and there is no other god without me, a just god and a saviour; there is none beside me.
Dei pouh awh. Tâcawt sak haw. Pouknae kâpoe awh naseh. Ayan hoi apinimaw a panue sak, apinimaw a dei pouh boi. Kai BAWIPA ni ka sak e nahoehmaw. Kai laipalah Cathut alouke roeroe awm hoeh. Kalan e hoi rungngangkung Cathut lah ka o. Kai hoeh laipateh alouke roeroe awm hoeh.
22 Turn unto me, so that ye may be helped, all ye ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no one else.
Talai pout totouh kaawm e pueng hah khenhaw! rungngang e lah awm hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai teh Cathut lah ka o, alouke khoeroe awm hoeh.
23 By myself have I sworn, righteousness is gone out of my mouth, a word [which] shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bend, every tongue shall swear.
Khokpakhu hoi tami pueng ni ka hmalah a cuengkhuem awh han. Talai tami pueng ni ka hmalah thoe a kâbo awh hoi lawk a kam awh han. Lawk teh lannae hoi ka pahni dawk hoi a tâco vaiteh ban mahoeh toe.
24 Only in the Lord, —shall men say of me, —there are righteousness and strength. Unto him shall come and be ashamed all that are incensed against him.
BAWIPA dawk dueng lannae hoi thaonae ao telah a dei awh han. Ama koe a tho awh vaiteh, ama koe a lung kakuep hoeh e pueng teh yeirai a po awh han.
25 In the Lord shall be justified, and shall glory themselves all the seed of Israel.
Isarel ca catounnaw pueng BAWIPA dawk lannae lah o awh vaiteh, BAWIPA teh a bawilennae lah ao han telah a ti.
