Isaiah 64
1 Oh that thou mightest rend the heavens, come down: at thy presence would mountains [then] melt away.
Oh, van hoa konna nahung kijaldoh jeng’a chule nahung kum suh hita ve leh! Na masanga lhangsang ho jong ti kithing thing jeng diu ahije!
2 As fire is kindled on brushwood, as water is made to bubble up by fire—to make thy name known to thy adversaries, that at thy presence nations might tremble!
Meiyin thing go akahvama chule twiho asatsah tobang'in, nangma hung chun chitin- namtin kithing uvintin, chutah le na melma ten na minthanna ajeh ahetdoh dingu ahitai.
3 [As] when thou didst fearful deeds which we had not looked for, thou camest down, [while] at thy presence mountains melted away;
Ma sanglaipeh’a na hungkumsuh chun, nangman kidangtah tah kagel phah’u kalval peh in thilho naboldohsa ahije. Hiti chun lhangsangho jong chu akihot jenguve!
4 Yea! what from the beginning of the world men had not heard, not perceived by their hearing; no eye [also] had seen a god beside thee, who could do [the like] for the one that waiteth for him.
Ajeh iham itileh vannoi bul kiphu’a patnin, koima’n ajah khahlou, chule Ama ngah jing ho hitobang athil bolpeh umkha lou, mihem koima mitnin nang tobang Pathen hi amukha pouve!
5 Thou acceptest him that rejoiceth and worketh righteousness, those that remember thee in thy ways: behold, thou wast wroth, for we had sinned on them continually; and can we thus be saved?
Kipah thanom’a apha bol ho, Pathen ngaisah ho chu kipah’in nakimupi ji'e. Hinla keiho pathen-ngaisah lou kahi jeh’un, kachunguva nalung hang lheh jenge. Keiho chonset bol bol jeng ka hiuvin; keiho tobangbep hi iti ka sochat dingu ham?
6 And we are become like an unclean man all of us, and like a soiled garment, all our righteousness; and we wither like a leaf all of us; and our iniquities, like the wind, will bear us away.
Keiho hi ka bonchauva achonsea le athenglou chu kahiuve. Ka chonphat thilbol hou jong, imacha dang hilou ponse-namse tobang bou ahi. Khal laiya thingna apul tobang'in keiho kagop pai jiuvin chule kapullha ji tauve, chule hui hung nung tobang'in ka chonset’uvin eipui mang ji tauve.
7 And there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth himself up to lay hold of thee; for thou hast hidden thy face from us, and hast let us melt away, through the force of our iniquities.
Ahivangin na mina taova koima aumpouvin chule na khotona angeh pouve. Hijeh hin, nangma keihoa konin na kihei mangin, chule ka chonset nau lama nei lehei mang tauve.
8 But now, O Lord, our father art thou; we are the clay, and thou our fashioner; and the work of thy hand are we all.
Chuti hijongleh, Vo Pakai, nangma ka Pa’u nahije. Nangma bel dengpa chu nahin chule keiho leingan kahiuve. Keima ho jouse hi nakhutna neisemu ahije.
9 Be not wroth, O Lord, so very greatly, and do not for ever remember [our] iniquity: behold, look, we beseech thee, thy people are we all.
Pakai, neilunghan hih beh’uvin. Ka chonsetna ho’u chu geldoh jom jing tahih beh in. Nei hin vetem’un, katao’u ahi, chule keima ho jouse hi namite kahiuve.
10 Thy holy cities are become a wilderness, Zion is become a wilderness, Jerusalem, a desolate place.
Na khopi thengho jong suhmangin aumtai. Zion hi gamthip akisoh in; henge, Jerusalem hi amangthah hel ahitai.
11 Our holy and beautiful house where our fathers praised thee, is burnt up with fire; and all our costly things are become ruins.
Hou’in theng le hoitah, kapu kapa teuvin na vahchoila asah nau mun chu, akihal vam’a ahitai, chule vet hoithei jouse chu kisumang soh’a ahitai.
12 Wilt thou for these things refrain thyself, O Lord? wilt thou be silent, and afflict us so very greatly?
Hicheng jouse nunga jong hi, Pakai, nangman nei donlou teitei dingu hitam? Thip beh’a naum joma chule nei gimbol dingu hitam?
