Isaiah 59
1 Behold, the Lord's hand is not too short to save; neither his ear too heavy for hearing;
Ngaijin! Pakai ban chu nangma huhhing dinga tha lhom’a ahipon, nakouna aw jong chu ajah louna dinga chutia na ngong’a ahidehpoi.
2 But your iniquities have ever made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have caused him to hide his face from you, so that he would not hear.
Na chonsetna ho’u hin nangho toh Pathen kikah akhen ahi. Na chonset jeh’u chun, aman amai aheimang leh na taonau angailou ahitai.
3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity: your lips have spoken falsehood, your tongue uttereth deception.
Na khut hou chu mithana khut ahi bouvin, chule na khut jung hou namset chu chonset bolna ahi. Na kam’uva hungpot jong jouseina dim ahin, chule nakam paovu jong manlou thu ngensen potna ahi.
4 No one admonisheth with righteousness, and no one executeth justice in truth; men trust in naught, and speak lies; they have conceived mischief, and bring forth wickedness.
Koima dat neilouva thutah sei le lung theng gelkhoh aumpoi. Miho chung thu kitanna mun jong jou thuho bou aseiju ahi. Amahon thilse ageluvin, chonset ahin hing doh’uve.
5 Basilisk's eggs do they hatch, and spider's webs do they weave: he that eateth of their eggs must die, and if one be crushed, a viper will break forth.
Ama hon thina thei gulse-tui chu aop keo’uvin chule mom pan asa thei’uve. Hiche pan sunga lhalut chan chu thi ding chule amaho gahnai chan chu hamsetna’a lut thei ahi.
6 Their webs cannot serve for garments, and they cannot clothe themselves with their works: their works are works of wickedness, and the deed of violence is in their hands.
Apan semu chu ponsil’a akimang theipon, chule athilbol’u jong imacha phatchomna tahbeh ahipoi. Achonna jouseu chonset adimset nin, chule minosop kiti hi amihi nau kihetna ahi.
7 Their feet run to what is evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of wickedness; wasting and destruction are on their highways.
Akeng phangu jong thilse bolna dingin alhaitho jengun, Chule amaho mithana dingin akal jangun ahi. Chonset bol ding bou agel gelun ahi. Lungkhamna le manthahna’in amaho ajui jinguve.
8 The way of peace they know not; and there is no justice on their tracks: their paths they have made unto themselves crooked; whosoever walketh therein knoweth not peace.
Cham-lungmonna hoilaija kimu ding ahi ahepouvin, thil adih’abol le apha bol di jong ahetapouve.
9 Therefore is justice far from us, nor will happiness overtake us: we ever hope for light, but behold there is darkness; for brightness, but in obscurity must we walk.
Hiti chun eimaho lah’a thu adih’a tan kiti hi aum theipon, chule hinkho adih’a man hi ipi ahi ihepouve. Vah iveuvin, hinla muthim bou imuve. Van dangvah iveuvin, hinla athim’a ium’uve.
10 We grope like the blind on the wall, and as if we had no eyes do we grope: we stumble at noonday as in the twilight; we are in complete darkness like the dead.
Eiho mitcho bangin banga ikimai’uvin, mit neilou ho tobang'in ilam piu idon jot’uve. Sun nisa emlai jin jong muthimpet tobang'in eiho ikipal’uvin ahi. Mihing gam'a iumlai’un jong athisa tobangbep ihiuve.
11 We growl all of us like bears, and like doves do we moan sorely; we ever hope for justice, but there is none; for aid, but it is far from us.
Eiho vompi gilkel tobang'in ikitum’uvin, chule lunghel na’a dim vakhu bangin imao’uve. Thu adih’a tan igaldot’uvin, hinla ahung hih beh in; eipan hu ding igaldot’un, hinla hichu eihoa konin gamla tah ahunghi.
12 For our transgressions are numerous in thy presence, and our sins testify against us; for of our transgressions are we aware; and our iniquities—we know them;
Ajeh iham itileh ichonset nahou Pathen masanga akisethop jengin chule hichun eiho eidouna akiphongdoh’in ahi. Henge, itobanga chonset bol ihiu ikihet’uve.
13 We transgressed and denied the Lord, and departed away from our God; we spoke oppression and revolt, conceived and brought forth in our heart words of falsehood.
Eihon Pakai douna le aseilep ma ipan’u ikihetdoh uvin ahi. Eihon I Pathen’u nungsuna ihitauve. Eihon ichan geija kilomlou tah le kidouna lung pua ihiuvem ti chingthei tah’a duha thuh tah’a jou jeng seija ihiu ikihet’uve.
14 And justice is forced to turn backward, and righteousness standeth afar off; for truth stumbled in the street, and equity is not able to enter.
Ithutan nau munna chondihna idoudal’un, chule thu adih’a tanna akimu tapoi. Thutah chu lam lenna akiboso in, lungthenna jong dan kalval akihisah tai.
15 And thus is the truth missing; and he that departeth from evil is regarded as foolish: and the Lord saw it, and it was displeasing in his eyes that there was no justice.
Ahinai, thutah chu achemangin, chule aphalou hotbol chan chu akinokhum khumtai. Pakaiyin ahinven, thu adih’a kitanlou chu alung himo lheh jenge.
16 And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor; therefore his arm brought him aid, and his righteousness, —yea, this sustained him.
Mi khatbeh’in jong akibolsepa pan hu dinga Ama’n amudoh joulou chu adatmo lheh jenge. Hitia hi akibolse chu panpi ding le aban thahatna huhdoh dinga Amatah hung kalsonga ahitai.
17 And he put on righteousness as a coat of mail, and [placed] the helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance as raiment, and wrapped himself with zeal as with a cloak.
Amahin chonphatna chu atahsa galmanchah dinga omphoa aneija chule huhhingna lukhuh chu alua akikhuh ahije. Amatah melma phuba lahna galvonna akivonin, chule Pathen khotona chu sangkholchol ‘in Amatah akivontai.
18 According to the demerits, so will he repay [all], fury to his adversaries, recompense to his enemies; to the islands will he repay what they have merited.
Ama hin amelmate chu athilse abolnau lethuh intin, Alunghanna chu adougal te chunga hung chu ding ahi. Amaho chu leiset kolmong geija lethuhna apeh ding ahi.
19 And they shall fear from the west the name of the Lord, and from the rising of the sun his glory; for there shall come distress like the stream which the Spirit of the Lord urgeth forward.
Lhumlam gam'a miho chun Pakai min chu ajabol dingu, solama Ama choi’atna apeh dingu ahi. Ajeh iham itileh Ama twisoh lai twi kinong tobanga Pakaijin ahu ahin semdoh ding ahi.
20 But unto Zion shall come the redeemer, and unto those who return from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord.
Lhatdampu chu Jerusalem’a hung ding Israel sunga achonset nauva konna lungheiho chu anungchoh doh ding ahije, tin Pakaiyin aseije.
21 And as for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the Lord, My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy children, nor out of the mouth of thy children's children, saith the Lord, from henceforth and unto all eternity.
Chule Pakaiyin hiche hi kakitepna hiding ahi:” Ka Lhagaovin amaho dalha tapontin, chule chuche thuho kapehlou beh hija ahi. Hiche thuho chu nangma kamsungle na chapa teu kamsung'a chule na tuteu kamsung'a a’itih’a umjing ding ahi, tin Keima Pakai kitipa hin kaphondoh ahitai.
