Isaiah 43
1 But now thus says the LORD who created you, Jacob, and he who formed you, Israel: "Do not be afraid, for I have redeemed you. I have called you by your name. You are mine.
Jakob nang aka suen tih Israel nang aka hlom Yahovah loh tahae ah tah, “Nang te kan tlan coeng dongah rhih boeh, nang te na ming neh kamah taengla kang khue coeng.
2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned, and the flame will not scorch you.
Tui te na kat vaengah nang taengah ka om vetih tuiva loh nang n'yo mahpawh. Hmai dongah na caeh vaengah na duih mahpawh. Hmaisai long khaw nang te n'dom mahpawh.
3 For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I have given Egypt as your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba in your place.
Kai tah Yahovah na Pathen, Israel kah a cim ni. Nang kah khangnah ham nang yuengla, Egypt Kusa neh Seba taengah nang kah tlansum ka paek coeng.
4 Since you have been precious and honored in my sight, and I have loved you; therefore I will give people in your place, and nations instead of your life.
Ka mikhmuh ah na phutlo tih n'thangpom coeng. Kai khaw nang kan lungnah tih nang yueng la hlang taengah, na hinglu yueng te namtu taengah ka paek ni.
5 Do not be afraid; for I am with you. I will bring your descendants from the east, and gather you from the west.
Nang taengah kang om puei dongah rhih boeh. Na tiingan te khocuk lamloh kam pawk puei vetih namah te khotlak lamloh kan coi ni.
6 I will tell the north, 'Give them up.' and tell the south, 'Do not hold them back. Bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the farthest parts of the earth—
tlangpuei taengah pae laeh, tuithim taengah khaw hloh boeh. Khohla lamkah ka ca rhoek neh ka tanu rhoek te diklai khobawt lamloh,
7 everyone who is called by my name, and whom I have created for my glory, whom I have formed, yes, whom I have made.'"
ka ming neh ka khue boeih te hang khuen,” ka ti ni. Kamah thangpomnah ham anih ka suen tih ka hlinsai tih ka saii bal.
8 Bring out the blind people who have eyes, and the deaf who have ears.
Mikdael mik neh hnapang hna aka om pilnam te khuen laeh.
9 Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the peoples be assembled. Who among them can declare this, and show us former things? Let them bring their witnesses, that they may be justified; or let them hear, and say, "That is true."
Namtom boeih te tun coi uh thae tih namtu rhoek khaw tingtun uh. Hekah he amih taengah unim aka puen tih lamhma kah te mamih taengah aka yaak sak. Amamih kah laipai te tloeng saeh lamtah tang uh saeh. Te vaengah ya uh saeh lamtah oltak te thui uh saeh.
10 "You are my witnesses," says the LORD, "With my servant whom I have chosen; that you may know and believe me, and understand that I am he. Before me there was no God formed, neither will there be after me.
Nangmih tah kamah kah laipai rhoek ni. BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. Ka sal te khaw na ming uh tih kai nan tangnah uh ham ni ka tuek. Te daengah ni kai kamah mikhmuh ah pathen te poeh tarha pawt tih ka hnukah a om pawt ham khaw na yakming uh eh.
11 I, I am the LORD; and besides me there is no savior.
Kai, kamah he Yahovah ni. Kai pawt atah khangnah om pawh.
12 I have declared, I have saved, and I have shown; and there was no strange god among you. Therefore you are my witnesses," says the LORD, "and I am God.
Kamah ka puen tih ka khang coeng. Ka yaak coeng dongah nangmih taengah kholong a om moenih. Nangmih tah kai laipai rhoek ni. “Kai tah Pathen ni” a ti he khaw BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
13 Yes, since the day was I am he; and there is no one who can deliver out of my hand. I will work, and who can hinder it?"
A tue khohnin dongah khaw kamah coeng hoeh, ka kut lamkah huul mahpawh. Ka saii phoeiah u long a balkhong thai eh?
14 Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: "For your sake, I have sent to Babylon, and I will bring all of them down as fugitives, even the Chaldeans, in the ships of their rejoicing.
Nangmih aka tlan BOEIPA, Israel kah a cim loh, “Nangmih ham Babylon la ka tueih vetih amih neh amamih kah a tamlung nah sangpho dongah Khalden khaw rhalyong rhoek bangla boeih kan suntlak puei ni.
15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King."
Kai nangmih kah Yahovah cim, Israel aka suen, nangmih manghai ni,” a ti.
16 Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;
Tuitunli ah longpuei aka khueh tih tui len dongah aka hawn BOEIPA loh,
17 who brings forth the chariot and horse, the army and the mighty man (they lie down together, they shall not rise; they are extinct, they are quenched like a wick):
Rhenten yalh khungdaeng tih a thoh uh kolla, thut bangla thi tih aka duek leng neh tatthai marhang aka khuen loh,
18 "Do not remember the former things, and do not consider the things of old.
hnukbuet te poek voel boel lamtah yan kah te khaw thoelh uh boeh.
19 Look, I will do a new thing. It springs forth now. Do you not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
Kai loh a thai la ka saii te poe coeng he. Khosoek ah longpuei, khopong ah tuiva ka khueh te khaw na ming uh moenih a?
20 The animals of the field shall honor me, the jackals and the ostriches; because I give water in the wilderness and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen,
Ka coelh ka pilnam tul ham khopong kah tuiva tui te khosoek ah ka paek. Te dongah kohong mulhing pongui neh kalauk vanu loh kai n'thangpom.
21 the people which I formed for myself, that they might set forth my praise.
Kamah ham ka hlom pilnam loh kai koehnah mah tae uh saeh.
22 Yet you have not called on me, Jacob; but you have been weary of me, Israel.
Tedae Jakob loh kai he nan khue pawt tih Israel loh kai ham na kohnue coeng.
23 You have not brought me of your sheep for burnt offerings; neither have you honored me with your sacrifices. I have not burdened you with offerings, nor wearied you with frankincense.
Na hmueihhlutnah boiva te kai taengla nang khuen moenih. Na hmueih nen khaw kai nan thangpom moenih. Khocang nen khaw nang tho kan thueng sak pawt tih hmueihtui nen khaw nang kan kohnue sak moenih.
24 You have bought me no sweet cane with money, nor have you filled me with the fat of your sacrifices; but you have burdened me with your sins. You have wearied me with your iniquities.
Canhnam an te kai hamla tangka neh na lai moenih. Na hmueih tha nen khaw kai nan hmilhmal sak moenih. Tedae na tholhnah neh kai taengah tho na thueng tih, namah kathaesainah neh kai nan kohnue sak.
25 I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake; and I will not remember your sins.
Kai, kamah loh kamah ham ni na boekoek ka khoe. Te dongah na tholhnah te ka thoelh moenih.
26 Put me in remembrance. Let us plead together. Set forth your case, that you may be justified.
Kai he n'thoelh lah, laitloek rhenten lah sih, na tang te na tae lah mako.
27 Your first father sinned, and your teachers have transgressed against me.
Na pa cuek te tholh rhoe tih nang kah oldoe rhoek loh kai taengah boe a koek uh.
28 Therefore I will profane the princes of the sanctuary; and I will make Jacob a curse, and Israel a reviling."
Te dongah hmuencim mangpa te ka poeih vetih Jakob te yaehtaboeih la, Israel te honah la ka khueh ni,” a ti.
