< Isaiah 58 >

1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.
Olrhong neh pang lamtah tuem boeh. Tuki bangla na ol te huel. Ka pilnam taengah a boekoek, Jakob imkhui taengah a tholh te puen pah.
2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God.
A hnin, hnin ah kai n'toem uh tih duengnah aka saii namtom bangla ka longpuei mingnah dongah hmae uh. A Pathen kah laitloeknah te hnoo uhpawt tih laitloeknah te kai n'dawt uh. Duengnah dongah Pathen vang a kai uh.
3 Why have we fasted, [say they], and thou seest not? [why] have we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge? Behold, in the day of your fast ye find pleasure, and exact all your labors.
Ba ham nim ka yaeh uh. Ka hinglu ka phaep uh khaw na hmu pawt tih na ming pawh. Na yaehnah hnin ah na ngaih te na dan tih na tueihyoeih rhoek te boeih na tueihno.
4 Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickedness: ye shall not fast as [ye do this] day, to make your voice to be heard on high.
Tuituknah, olpungnah neh na yaeh uh tih halangnah kuthluem neh hlang aka ngawn rhung mai la. Tihnin kah bangla na ol te hmuensang ah yaak sak ham na yaeh uh moenih.
5 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? [is it] to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes [under him]? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
Kai kah ka tuek yaehnah tah he tla om a? Hlang loh amah kah hinglu a phaep ham khohnin dae ni. A lu te canghlong bangla duengyai tih tlamhni neh hmaiphu a phaih te nim? Te mai te nim yaehnah neh BOEIPA taengkah kolonah khohnin na ti van?
6 [Is] not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?
He bang yaehnah he ni ka coelh moenih a? Halangnah dongkah thuengthuelnah te dul pah ham, hnokohcung rhoi te hlam ham, a neet rhoek te sayalh la tueih ham ni. Te dongah hnokohcung boeih te khaem laeh.
7 [Is it] not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou shouldst bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou shouldst cover him; and that thou shouldst not hide thyself from thy own flesh?
Na buh te bungpong taengah tael pah ham moenih a? Mangdaeng airhoeng te im la na khuen mako, pumtling te na hmuh vaengah anih te na khuk mako. Namah saa te thuh tak boeh saw.
8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rear-ward.
Te vaengah na vangnah te khothaih bangla thoeng vetih na hoeihnah khaw pahoi poe ni. Na duengnah te na mikhmuh ah pongpa vetih BOEIPA kah thangpomnah loh nang n'cului ni.
9 Then shalt thou call, and the LORD will answer; thou shalt cry, and he will say, Here I [am]. If thou shalt take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;
Na khue tih na pang vaengah BOEIPA loh n'doo vetih, “Kai la he,” a ti ni. Kutdawn loh a khi hnokohcung neh boethae la aka cal te khaw na khui lamloh na khoe mako.
10 And [if] thou shalt draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness [be] as the noon day:
Na hinglu he bungpong ham na dang van coeng dongah a phaep hlang kah a hinglu khaw cung sak van. Te daengah ni na vangnah loh hmaisuep ah thoeng vetih na taengkah khohmuep te khothun la a poeh eh.
11 And the LORD will guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drouth, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.
BOEIPA loh nang m'mawt yoeyah vetih tuikoek haikoeng khuikah na hinglu te n'cung sak ni. Na rhuh a caang sak vetih khosul dum bangla na om ni. Tuiphuet tui bangla anih kah tui tah caap pah pawh.
12 And [they that shall be] of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
Te vaengah na taengkah khosuen imrhong te a yung lamkah loh hang khoeng uh vetih cadilcahma phoeikah cadilcahma duela pai ni. Namah te khaw a puut aka biing, khosa ham a hawn aka tlaih la n'khue uh ni.
13 If thou shalt turn away thy foot from the sabbath, [from] doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honorable; and shalt honor him, not doing thy own ways, nor finding thy own pleasure, nor speaking [thy own] words:
Kai kah khohnin cim ah na kongaih saii hamla namah kho neh Sabbath te na mael tak atah, Sabbath tah BOEIPA kah a thangpom neh aka cim pangdoknah la na thui atah, na longpuei na saii nen khaw, na sanaep na hmuh nen khaw, olka na thui nen khaw, na thangpom atah,
14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken [it].
BOEIPA dongah na pang na dok vetih diklai kah hmuensang, hmuensang ah nang te n'ngol sak ni. Na pa Jakob kah rho te nang kan cah ni. BOEIPA kah ka loh a thui ngawn coeng.
