Isaiah 57
1 The righteous perishes, and no man lays it to heart; and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil.
Aka dueng te milh dae lungbuei ah aka dueh hlang a om moenih. A sitlohnah hlang rhoek a coi te yakming pawt cakhaw aka dueng tah yoethae hmai lamloh a coi.
2 He enters into peace; they rest in their beds, each one who walks in his uprightness.
Anih te ngaimong la a kun vaengah a thingkong dongah duem uh tih a langya la pongpa van.
3 "But draw near here, you sons of the sorceress, offspring of an adulterer and a prostitute.
Tedae nangmih kutyaek aka so ca rhoek, samphaih neh cukhalh kah tiingan khaw pahoi ha moe.
4 Against whom are you mocking? Against whom do you make a wide mouth, and stick out your tongue? Aren't you children of rebellion, offspring of liars,
U taengah nim na pang na dok? U taengah nim ka na ang tih lai na hlo thil, boekoek camoe neh laithae kah cangti te nang moenih a?
5 you who inflame yourselves among the oaks, under every green tree; who kill the children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks?
Thingnu taeng neh thing hing hmui takuem kah aka haw, thaelvap thaelpang hmui kah soklong ah camoe aka ngawn rhoek aw.
6 Among the smooth stones of the valley is your portion; they, they are your lot; you have even poured a drink offering to them. You have offered an offering. Shall I be appeased for these things?
Na hamsum tah soklong longhnal dongah om lah ko. Amah te ni nang kah hmulung rhoe pai. Te rhoek taengah tuisi na bueih tih khocang na nawn lalah ko ka hlawt het aya te?
7 On a high and lofty mountain you have set your bed; there also you went up to offer sacrifice.
Tlang sang ah na thingkong te na phaih cakdawk van tih hmueih ngawn hamla na cet bal pueng.
8 Behind the doors and the posts you have set up your memorial: for you have uncovered to someone besides me, and have gone up; you have enlarged your bed, and made you a covenant with them: you loved their bed where you saw it.
Thohkhaih hael neh rhungsut dongah namah poekkoepnah na khueh. Kai taeng lamkah phoeiah tah a tling la na van tih na thingkong te amih taengah a ah -oem la na khueh pah. A thingkong te na lungnah tih a kut te na hmuh pah.
9 You went to the king with oil, and increased your perfumes, and sent your ambassadors far off, and debased yourself even to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
Manghai te situi neh na yiin. Na bova te na koei tih khohla la na laipai na tueih phoeiah saelkhui la na kunyun. (Sheol h7585)
10 You were wearied with the length of your way; yet you did not say, 'It is in vain.' You found a reviving of your strength; therefore you weren't faint.
Na longpuei te puh tih na kohnue dae, 'vi uh coeng, 'ti boeh. Na kut dongkah hingnah na hmuh coeng dongah na kothae sak boeh.
11 "Of whom have you been afraid and in fear, that you lie, and have not remembered me, nor laid it to your heart? Haven't I held my peace even of long time, and you do not fear me?
Unim na mawn thil tih na rhih. Na laithae dongah kai he nan poek pawt tih na lungbuei ah na khueh moenih. Kai nan rhih pawt khaw khosuen lamloh ka ngam dongah moenih a?
12 I will declare your righteousness; and as for your works, they shall not profit you.
Na duengnah neh na khoboe te kamah loh kan yan vetih nang n'hoeikhang sak uh mahpawh.
13 When you cry, let those who you have gathered deliver you; but the wind shall take them, a breath shall carry them all away: but he who takes refuge in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain."
Na pang vaengah nang te n'huul uh saeh. Na coicip te khaw a pum la khohli loh a voeih a honghi a loh ni. Tedae kai dongah aka ying tah khohmuen a pang vetih ka tlang cim khaw a pang ni.
14 He will say, "Build up, build up, prepare the way, take up the stumbling-block out of the way of my people."
Te vaengah, “Picai uh, picai uh, longpuei te saelh uh. Ka pilnam longpuei kah hmuitoel te khoel uh.
15 For thus says the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: "I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also who is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.
Aka pomsang uh tih aka cawkdawk, a yoeyah la kho aka sa tih hmuensang kah a ming cim neh aka cim loh, “Mueihla tlarhoel rhoek hing sak ham neh lungbuei aka paep rhoek hing sak hamla yutnah neh mueihla tlarhoel taengah khaw kho ka sak.
16 For I will not contend forever, neither will I be always angry; for the spirit would faint before me, and the souls who I have made.
Kumhal duela kang ho aih pawt vetih a yoeyah la ka thintoek aih mahpawh. Ka mikhmuh kah mueihla neh kamah loh ka saii hingnah hiil he khaw khobing lah ve.
17 For the iniquity of his covetousness was I angry, and struck him; I hid myself and was angry; and he went on backsliding in the way of his heart.
Thaesainah neh a mueluemnah te ka thintoek tih anih ka ngawn. Ka thuh uh tih ka thintoek. A lungbuei kah a khosing neh hnukcol la cet.
18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts to him and to his mourners.
A khosing ka hmu cakhaw anih te a hoeih sak vetih amah te ka mawt ni. Rhahdoe cangpoem ah khaw anih te hloephoelhnah neh ka thuung ni.
19 I create the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace, to him who is far off and to him who is near," says Jehovah; "and I will heal him."
A lai thaih kah a thaih khaw, rhoepnah he khohla neh khoyoei kah rhoepnah la ka suen,” a ti. BOEIPA loh, “Anih ka hoeih sak ni,” a ti.
20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea; for it can't rest, and its waters cast up mire and dirt.
Halang tah tuili bangla niknuk tih mong thai pawh. Te vaengah tui loh tuinu neh tangnong te pong a loe.
21 "There is no peace," says my God, "for the wicked."
Halang rhoek ham rhoepnah a om pawt te ka Pathen loh a thui.
