< Isaiah 50 >

1 Thus hath said the Lord, Where is your mother's bill of divorcement, wherewith I have sent her away? or who of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? behold, for your iniquities were ye sold, and for your transgressions was your mother sent away.
BOEIPA loh, “Na manu ka tueih vaengkah yuuhlak cabu te ta melae. Nangmih taengah kan yoih vaengkah kai kah lai aka ba te unim. Namamih kathaesainah loh n'yoih tih na boekoek long ni na nu khaw a tueih ne.
2 Why did I come and no man was there, did I call, with none to answer? hath my hand become too short for redeeming? or is there no power in me to deliver? behold, through my threatening I can dry up the sea, I can change the rivers into a wilderness: their fish stink for want of water, and die for thirst.
Balae tih ka pawk vaengah hlang ana om pawh? Ka khue vaengah aka doo om pawh? Tlannah ham te ka kut ngun khaw ngun a? Nang huul ham te ka khuiah thadueng a om moenih a? Kai kah tluungnah dongah tuipuei khaw ka khah. Tuiva khaw khosoek la ka khueh tih a nga khaw rhim. Tui om pawt tih tuihalh loh a duek sak.
3 I can clothe the heavens with blackness, and I can make sackcloth their garment.
Vaan ke a muem ka khuk tih tlamhni te a himbai la ka khueh pah.
4 The Lord Eternal hath given me a tongue for teaching, that I should know how to strengthen the weary with the word: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth my ear to listen like those who are well taught.
Lamlum he olka nen khaw tungduel ham neh ming sak ham ka Boeipa Yahovah loh kai taengah lolmang cil m'paek. Mincang bal, mincang bal amah haenghang coeng. Kamah khaw ka hna ah lolmang la yaak sak ham n'haeng.
5 The Lord Eternal hath opened me my ear, and I resisted not: I turned not backward.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh ka hna han cah dongah ka koek pawh, a hnuk la ka balkhong pawh.
6 My back I gave up to the smiters, and my cheeks to those that plucked off the hair: my face I hid not from abuse and spitting.
Kai aka taam rhoek taengah ka nam, ka maelhmai aka thool sak ham ka kam kaduen pah. Mingthae neh timthoeih khaw ka thuh tak pawh.
7 But the Lord Eternal ever helpeth me; therefore was I not confounded; therefore have I rendered my face like a flint, and I knew that I should not be made ashamed.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh kai m'bom dongah ka hmaithae mahpawh. Te dongah ka maelhmai he hmailung bangla ka khueh tih yah ka poh mahpawh tila ka ming.
8 He that justifieth me is near; who will contend with me? let us stand forward together: who hath a dispute with me? let him come near to me.
Kai aka tang sak khaw yoei ngawn. Unim kai taengah aka oelh eh? Tun pai uh sih. Ka kah laitloek boei te unim? Kai taengla ha mop saeh.
9 Behold, the Lord Eternal will help me; who is the man that will condemn me? lo, they all shall wear out as a garment: the moth shall eat them up.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh kai m'bom ta he. U amah long nim kai m'boe sak eh? Amih ke himbai bangla boeih hmawn vetih bungbo long ni a caak eh.
10 Who is among you that feareth the Lord, that hearkeneth to the voice of his servant? though he have walked in darkness, and had no light: let him trust in the name of the Lord, and lean for support upon his God.
Nangmih khuiah BOEIPA aka rhih tih a sal kah ol aka hnatun te unim? Tamyin ah aka pongpa te tah anih ham a aa om pawh. Yahweh ming dongah pangtung saeh lamtah a Pathen dongah hangdang saeh.
11 Behold, all ye that kindle fire, that urge on the brands: walk by the blaze of your fire, and by the brands ye have kindled; from my hand hath this been bestowed on you; in pain shall ye lie down.
Nangmih boeih loh hmai aka hlae tih hmaipom aka vah rhoek loh namamih kah hmaipuei hmai khuiah pongpa uh. Ka kut lamkah hmaipom na tok te namah taengla ha pak vetih kosilungnan la na yalh bitni,” a ti.
