Isaiah 46
1 Bel has bowed down, Nebo is stooping, Their idols have been for the beast and for livestock, Your burdens are loaded, a burden to the weary.
Bel te koisu tih Nebo khun coeng. Amih kah muei te mulhing neh rhamsa dongah om. Na hnohoei pataeng buhmueh rhathih ham tah hnorhih la a tloeng.
2 They have stooped, they have bowed together, They have not been able to deliver the burden, And have gone into captivity themselves.
A khun neh rhenten a koisu uh dongah hnorhih poenghal uh thai pawh. Te dongah amih kah hinglu tah tamna la cet.
3 “Listen to Me, O house of Jacob, And all the remnant of Israel, Who are borne from the belly, Who are carried from the womb,
Jakob imkhui neh bungko lamloh ka yom tih ka bung dong lamkah ka poeh Israel imkhui kah a meet boeih loh kamah taengkah he ya uh saeh.
4 Even to old age, I [am] He, and to grey hairs I carry, I made, and I bear, indeed, I carry and deliver.
Patong duela kai tah amah thim la ka om tih, sampok duela ka laetaep ni. Kamah loh ka saii dongah kamah long ni ka phueih eh. Ka laetaep vetih ka poenghal sak ni.
5 To whom do you liken Me, and make equal? And compare Me, that we may be like?
U taengah nim kai nan lutlat sak uh vetih nan tluk sak uh eh, kai aka puet ham kamah bangla na om venim?
6 They are pouring out gold from a bag, And they weigh silver on the beam, They hire a refiner, and he makes it a god, They fall down, indeed, they bow themselves.
Sungsa dong lamloh sui aka buk tih capu kong neh tangka aka thuek. Aka cilpoe te a paang uh tih pathen a saii pah te a buluk thil uh tih a bawk uh.
7 They lift him up on the shoulder, They carry him, and cause him to rest in his place, And he stands, he does not move from his place, Indeed, one cries to him, and he does not answer, He does not save him from his adversity.
A laengpang dongah a koh uh tih a laetaep uh. Tedae amah hmuen la a tloeng akhaw a pai hmuen lamloh nong pawh. Anih te a doek akhaw a citcai lamloh doo pawt tih amah te khang bal pawh.
8 Remember this, and show yourselves men, Turn [it] back, O transgressors, to the heart.
He poek uh lamtah sap uh lah. Boekoek rhoek loh na lungbuei te mael tak uh.
9 Remember former things of old, For I [am] Mighty, and there is none else, God—and there is none like Me.
Khosuen kah te lamhma la poek uh. Pathen kamah phoeiah Pathen tloe om pawt tih kai bang khaw om pawh.
10 Declaring the latter end from the beginning, And from of old that which has not been done, Saying, My counsel stands, And all My delight I do.
A tongcuek lamkah hmailong due khaw, hlamat lamkah a saii uh noek pawt te aka puen loh, “Kai kah cilsuep tah thoo vetih ka huengaih boeih te ka saii ni,” a ti.
11 Calling a ravenous bird from the east, The man of My counsel from a far land, Indeed, I have spoken, indeed, I bring it in, I have formed [it], indeed, I do it.
Khocuk lamkah vatlung neh khohla bangsang khohmuen lamkah a cilsuep hlang te ka cilsuep la ka khue. Ka thui tangtae te ni ka thoeng sak bal vetih, ka taeng tangtae te ka saii bal eh.
12 Listen to Me, you mighty in heart, Who are far from righteousness.
Kamah taengah hnatun uh lah, lungbuei aka lueng rhoek he duengnah lamkah neh daengrhae daengkhoi.
13 I have brought My righteousness near, It is not far off, And My salvation—it does not linger, And I have given salvation in Zion, For Israel My glory!”
Ka duengnah kang khuen he hlavak pawt tih kamah lamkah loeihnah he uelh mahpawh. Te dongah loeihnah he Zion taengah, ka boeimang te Israel taengah ka paek ni.
