< Isaiah 63 >

1 [I ask], “Who is this who is coming from Bozrah [city] in Edom, whose clothes are stained red [from blood]? Who is this who is wearing beautiful robes?” [He replies], “It is I, [Yahweh], declaring that I have defeated [your enemies], and I am able to rescue you!”
Edom ram, Bozrah kho hoi a tho teh, hni ka paling e kâkhu laihoi ka tho e hah apimaw. Ka sungren e hni, a thaonae bawilennae lahoi ka tho e teh apine. Kai teh lannae lahoi lawk ka dei niteh, rungngang hanelah athakaawme doeh.
2 [I ask him], “What are those red spots on your clothes? It appears that [SIM] you have been treading/tramping on grapes [to make wine].”
Bangkongmaw na kâkhu e hni hah a paling teh na hni teh misur katinnae koe tami ni a kho e hoi a kâvan.
3 [He replies], “I have been treading on [my enemies, not] on grapes. I did it myself; no one helped me. I punished them because I was very angry with them, and my clothes became stained with their blood.
Misur paw hah kai kama dueng doeh katin toe. Tami moikapap e thung hoi kai koe buet touh hai awm awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, lungkhuek laihoi katin toe. Lungkhuek lahoi ka coungroe teh, ahnimae a thi ni kaie hni dawk a tâcawn sin teh kaie hninaw hah kakhin sak toe.
4 I did that because it was time for me [SYN] to get revenge; it was time to rescue [my people from those who had oppressed them].
Moipathungnae hnin teh ka lung dawk ao. Ahnimanaw ka ratangnae kum ni a pha toe.
5 I searched for someone who would enable me to help [my people], but I was amazed/shocked that there was no one to help me. So I defeated [their enemies] with my own power/strength [MTY]; I was able [PRS] to do that because of my being very angry.
Ka khet navah kabawmkung apihai awm hoeh. Hmoung ka ti nahai kapathawkung apihai awm hoeh. Hatdawkvah, kamae kut ni kama hanelah rungngangnae a sak toe. Ka lungkhueknae ni kai heh na man toe.
6 Because I was extremely angry, I punished the nations; I caused them [to stagger like] [MET] drunk men, and I caused their blood to pour out on the ground.”
Taminaw ka lungkhueknae lahoi ka coungroe toe. Ka lungkhueknae lahoi puenghoi ka kanawi toe. Ahnimae thi teh talai dawk ka rabawk toe.
7 I will tell about Yahweh faithfully loving his people, and I will praise him for all that he has done. Yahweh has done good things for [us] people [MTY] of Israel; he has acted mercifully toward us, and he has steadfastly and faithfully loved us.
Pahren lungmanae patetlah BAWIPA ni lung na patawnae pueng thoseh, Isarelnaw koe a sak pouh e a lungmanae hai thoseh, BAWIPA e a lungmanae hoi, BAWIPA pahrennae teh ka pholen han.
8 Yahweh said, “These are my people; they will not deceive me;” so he rescued us.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, ahnimouh teh ka tami katang doeh. Laithoe ka dei hoeh e camo lah ao. Hatdawkvah, ahnimae rungngangkung lah ka o.
9 When we had many troubles, he was sad [also]. He sent his angel to rescue us. Because he loved us and was merciful to us, he saved us; [it was as though] he picked our ancestors up and carried them all those years [during which they were oppressed in Egypt].
Kângairunae dawkvah, a hmalah kaawm e kalvantami ni, ahnimanaw a rungngang teh a lungpatawnae lahoi a ratang. Ayan e tueng pueng dawk hai ahnimouh hah a po teh a hrawi awh.
10 But we rebelled against him, and we caused his Holy Spirit to be sad. So he became [like] [MET] an enemy who fought against us.
Hatei taran a thaw awh teh, Kathoung Muitha hah a lungmathoe sak awh. Hatdawkvah ahnimanaw hah a taran teh a tuk.
11 Then we thought about [what happened] long ago, during the time when Moses led [our ancestors out of Egypt]. We cried out, “Where is the one who brought our ancestors through the [Red] Sea while Moses led them? Where is the one who sent his Holy Spirit to be among our ancestors?
Hat toteh, ayan e Mosi hoi a taminaw hah pahnim awh hoeh, hateh hettelah ati awh, ' talî thung hoi a tuhu kakhoumkungnaw hoi rei ka tâcawkhaikung Cathut te nâne ao. Kathoung Muitha ahnimanaw koe kapoekung nâne ao.
12 Where is the one who showed his glorious power [MTY], and caused the water to separate when Moses lifted his arm above it, with the result that he will be honored/praised forever?
Ka bawilen poung e, Mosi e aranglae kut hoi kahrawikung te nâne ao. Ama hanelah a yungyoe min a kâsai nahanelah ahnimae hmalah tui kâbawng sakkung te nâne ao.
13 Where is the one who led our ancestors while they walked through the sea bed? They were like [SIM] horses that were racing along and never stumbled.
Ayawn dawk marang yawng sak e patetlah kangangkung awm laipalah, ka dungpoung e tui dawk hoi ahnimanaw kahrawikung te nâne ao.
14 They were like [SIM] cattle that walk down into a valley [to rest], and the Spirit of Yahweh enabled them to go to a place where they could rest. Yahweh, you led your people, and you caused yourself [MTY] to (get a wonderful reputation/be greatly honored).”
Ayawn dawk saringnaw ka cet e patetlah BAWIPA e Muitha ni a kangdue sak teh, hottelah a min sungren sak nahanelah namae na taminaw hah na hrawi toe ati awh.
15 [Yahweh], look down from heaven; look down on us from your holy and glorious home. You were [RHQ] previously very concerned [about us], and you acted powerfully [to help us]. But it seems that you do not act mercifully and zealously for us any more.
Kalvan hoi khen cathuk haw. Nange thoungnae hoi na bawilennae hoi na onae hmuen koehoi khenhaw! Na thaonae hnosakenaw hoi na lungthahmeinae nâne ao. Na lungthin hoi na dounnae hoi na pahrennae teh yout koe a roum toung boma.
16 You are our father. Abraham does not know [what is happening to] us, and Jacob is not concerned about us, [either], but Yahweh, you are our father; you rescued us long ago.
Abraham ni kaimanaw na panuek awh hoeh. Isarelnaw hah na coe hoeh nakunghai, atangcalah, kaimae na pa lah nang teh na o. Ayan hoi kamtawng teh, kaimanaw na ka ratang e Jehovah nama doeh.
17 Yahweh, why did you cause us to wander away from your road [RHQ]? Why did you cause us to be stubborn, with the result that we no [longer] revere you [RHQ]? Help us like you did previously, because we are the people who serve you and belong to you.
Oe, BAWIPA, bangkongmaw na lamthung dawk hoi kaimanaw hah lam na phen sak vaiteh nang takihoehnae lungthin hoi na pata sak han vaw. Na san, râw kacoekungnaw kecu dawk bout ban haw.
18 We, your holy people, possessed your sacred temple for only a short time, [and now] our enemies have destroyed it.
Na tamikathoungnaw ni tueng kaduemca dueng a coe awh teh, na katarankungnaw ni na hmuen kathoung hah koung ka rawk lah rep a coungroe awh.
19 Now it seems as though we never were ruled by you, as though we were never part of your family [MTY].
Na uk boihoeh e hoi na min ka phawt boihoeh e ayan e tami patetlah doeh ka o awh toe.
