Isaiah 38
1 In those days has Hezekiah been sick to death, and Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet, comes to him and says to him, “Thus said YHWH: Give a charge to your house, for you [are] dying, and do not live.”
To na niah Hezekiah loe duek duih khoek to ngannat. To pongah Amoz capa tahmaa Isaiah loe anih khaeah caeh moe, Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; Na hing mak ai, na duek han oh boeh pongah, na imthung takoh to kahoih ah raemh ah, tiah a naa.
2 And Hezekiah turns around his face to the wall, and prays to YHWH,
Hezekiah loe tapang bangah anghae moe, Angraeng khaeah lawkthuih,
3 and says, “Ah, now, O YHWH, please remember how I have habitually walked before You in truth, and with a perfect heart, and I have done that which [is] good in your eyes”; and Hezekiah weeps [with] a great weeping.
Aw Angraeng, na hmaa ah kawbangmaw loktang hoi coek koi kaom ai palungthin hoiah kho ka sak moe, na mik hnukah kahoih hmuen ka sak, tito tahmenhaih hoi na panoek pae rae ah, tiah lawk a thuih. Hezekiah loe palungset moe qah.
4 And a word of YHWH is to Isaiah, saying,
To naah Angraeng ih lok Isaiah khaeah angzoh,
5 “Go, and you have said to Hezekiah, Thus said YHWH, God of your father David: I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tear, behold, I am adding fifteen years to your days,
Caeh ah loe Hezekiah khaeah hae tiah thui paeh; nam pa David ih Sithaw mah, Na lawkthuihaih lok to ka thaih boeh, na mikkhraetui doeh ka hnuk boeh; khenah, na hinghaih saning hatlai pangato kang thap pae han, tiah thuih, tiah thui paeh, tiah a naa.
6 and out of the hand of the king of Asshur I deliver you and this city, and have covered over this city.
Nangmah hoi hae vangpui hae Assyria siangpahrang ban thung hoiah kang pahlong han; hae vangpui hae ka pakaa han.
7 And this [is] to you the sign from YHWH, that YHWH does this thing that He has spoken.
Angraeng loe a thuih ih lok baktiah sah tih, hae loe nang hanah kaom Angraeng khae hoi ih angmathaih ah om tih;
8 Behold, I am bringing back the shadow of the degrees that it has gone down on the degrees of Ahaz, by the sun, backward ten degrees”; and the sun turns back ten degrees in the degrees that it had gone down.
khenah, Ahaz nuiah caeh tathuk tangcae ni tahlip to khok tangkan haato hnukbangah kam laemsak let han, tiah a naa. To pongah kalaem tangcae ni tahlip to khok tangkan haato hnukbangah amlaem let.
9 A writing of Hezekiah king of Judah concerning his being sick when he revives from his sickness:
Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah loe ngannat, toe ngan a tui let pacoengah anih mah tarik ih ca loe,
10 “I said in the cutting off of my days, I go to the gates of Sheol, I have numbered the remnant of my years. (Sheol h7585)
ka hinghaih khosak hoih li naah, duekhaih khongkha ah ka caeh han boeh, kanghmat ka hinghaih saningnawk doeh ka pongsak sut han boeh mue, tiah ka poek. (Sheol h7585)
11 I said, I do not see YAH—YAH! In the land of the living, I do not behold man anymore, With the inhabitants of the world.
Kahing kaminawk ih prae ah, Angraeng to ka hnu let mak ai boeh; long nuiah kaom kaminawk doeh ka hnu let mak ai boeh, tiah ka poek.
12 My sojourning has departed, And been removed from me as a shepherd’s tent, I have drawn together, as a weaver, my life, By weakness it cuts me off, From day to night You end me.
Phraek ih tuutoep kaminawk ih im baktiah ka im loe krak rup boeh, anih mah kai khae hoiah ang lak pae ving boeh; kahni sah kami mah kahni pakhraep baktih toengah ka hinghaih pakhraek ah oh, ka hinghaih qui loe apet ving boeh; aqum ah maw, athun ah maw, nito thungah ka hinghaih na boengsak tih boeh, tiah ka poek.
13 I have set [Him] as a lion until morning, So He breaks all my bones, From day to night You end me.
Akhawnbang khodai khoek to palungsawkhaih hoiah ka zing, toe kaipui baktiah ka huhnawk to ang khaeh pae; aqum ah maw, athun ah maw, nito thungah ka hinghaih na boengsak tih boeh, tiah ka poek.
14 As a crane—a swallow—so I chatter, I mourn as a dove, My eyes have been drawn up on high, O YHWH, oppression [is] on me, be my guarantor.
Kai loe pungpae baktih, tangpra baktiah ka hang moe, pahu baktiah ka oi khing; van bangah ka khet loiah ka mik thazok sut boeh; Aw Angraeng, raihaih ka tong boeh, kai abom hanah angzo rae ah.
15 What do I say? Seeing He spoke to me, And He Himself has worked, I go softly all my years for the bitterness of my soul.
Toe kawbangmaw ka thuih han? Anih mah kai khaeah lok ang thuih, a thuih ih lok baktiah angmah a sak boeh; ka hinghaih patangkhang boeh pongah, ka hing thung poeknaemhaih hoiah ka caeh han.
16 Lord, [men] live by these, And by all in them [is] the life of my spirit, And You save me, make me to also live,
Angraeng, kaminawk loe to tiah ni hing o; to baktih hmuennawk boih ah ka muithla hinghaih to oh; ngan na tuisak ah loe, na hingsak let ah.
17 Behold, He changed bitterness to peace for me, And You have delighted in my soul without corruption, For You have cast all my sins behind Your back.
Khenah, ngantui han ih ni patang ka khang; ka hinghaih nang tahmen pongah, amrohaih tangqom thung hoiah nang loisak boeh; ka zaehaihnawk boih ka hnukbangah nang vah pae king boeh.
18 For Sheol does not confess You, Death does not praise You, Those going down to the pit do not hope for Your truth. (Sheol h7585)
Taprong mah nang to pakoeh thai mak ai, kadueh mah doeh nang pakoehhaih laasah thai mak ai; tangqom thungah caeh tathuk kami mah na loktang lok to oep thai mak ai. (Sheol h7585)
19 The living, the living, he confesses You,
Kahing kami, kahing kaminawk mah ni, vaihniah ka sak ih baktih toengah nang to pakoeh thai ueloe, ampanawk mah a caanawk khaeah loktang na lok to panoek o sak thai tih.
20 Like myself today; A father makes known to [his] sons of Your faithfulness, O YHWH—to save me: And we sing my songs all [the] days of our lives In the house of YHWH.”
Angraeng mah na pahlong tih, to pongah ka hing thung Angraeng ih im thungah aqui kapop katoeng kruek hoiah laa ka sak o han.
21 And Isaiah says, “Let them take a bunch of figs, and plaster over the ulcer, and he lives.”
Isaiah mah, Thaiduet thaih to laa nasoe loe, naep pacoengah ahmaa nuiah bet nahaeloe ngantui tih, tiah a naa.
22 And Hezekiah says, “What [is] the sign that I go up to the house of YHWH?”
Hezekiah mah, Angraeng ih im ah ka caeh tahang han pongah, tih angmathaih maw om tih? tiah a dueng.
