Isaiah 59
1 Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
Khenhaw! BAWIPA e kut teh rungngang thai hoeh han totouh duem hoeh. Thai thai hoeh nahan totouh a hnâpang hoeh.
2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid [his] face from you, that he will not hear.
Hatei, namamae payonnae ni na Cathut koehoi na kapek awh teh, a thai hoeh nahanelah na hawi awh hoeh nae ni a minhmai hah nangmouh koehoi a hro toe.
3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath uttered perverseness.
Nangmae kut teh thi hoi thoseh, na kutdawnnaw teh yonnae hoi thoseh, na khin sak awh. Nangmouh ni pahni hoi laithoe na dei awh. Na laihoi thoenae lawk na dei awh.
4 None calleth for justice, nor [any] pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.
Kângingnae hah apinihai tawng awh hoeh. Lawkkatang hah tarawi awh hoeh. Ayawmyin e lawk hah a kâuep awh teh, laithoe lawk doeh ouk a dei awh. Thoenae hah a vawn awh teh, payonnae hah a khe awh.
5 They hatch cockatrice eggs, and weave the spider's web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper.
Tahrun tadui hah a awt awh teh, Bombarui hah a kawng awh. A taduinaw kacate teh a due. A tadui a kâkhei teh tahrun lah a tâco.
6 Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works [are] works of iniquity, and the act of violence [is] in their hands.
A kawng awh e bombarui teh, khohna lah kangcoung pouh hoeh. A kawng awh e hni hah kâkhu awh mahoeh. A sak awh e hno hah kahawihoehe hoi a sak awh dawkvah, a kut dawk thamanae ao.
7 Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts [are] thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction [are] in their paths.
A khoknaw teh thoenae saknae koe a yawng awh teh, yonnae ka tawn hoeh e tami thipalawngnae koe a hue a rang awh. A pouknae hai kahawihoehe pouknae doeh. A ceinae lamthung hai rucatnae hoi rawknae lamthung lah doeh ao.
8 The way of peace they know not; and [there is] no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whoever goeth therein shall not know peace.
Roumnae lamthung panuek awh hoeh. Ahnimae lamthung dawk kângingnae awm hoeh. A cei awh nahan lamlongkawinaw a sak awh teh, kadawnnaw pueng ni roumnae hmawt awh mahoeh.
9 Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness, [but] we walk in darkness.
Hatdawkvah, kângingnae teh maimouh koehoi kahlatpoung lah ao teh, lannae ni hai na phat boi awh hoeh toe. Angnae hah ka ring awh, hatei, haw vah hmonae teh ao. Ka ring awh e teh angnae eiteh, kahmawt poung e koe doeh cei awh.
10 We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if [we had] no eyes: we stumble at noon day as in the night; [we are] in desolate places as dead [men].
Mit ka dawn e patetlah tapang thupthup payam awh teh, mit ka tawn hoeh e patetlah pou payam awh. Tangmin e patetlah kanîthun hai kamthui awh teh, ka rawp awh. Thaonae koe teh tami kadout patetlah doeh ka o awh toe.
11 We all roar like bears, and mourn bitterly like doves: we look for judgment, but [there is] none; for salvation, [but] it is far from us.
Tavom patetlah ka hram awh teh, bakhu patetlah ka cingou awh. Kângingnae ka tawng awh ei, pâphawng awh hoeh toe. Rungngangnae ngaihawi awh ei, maimouh koehoi ahla poung toe.
12 For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions [are] with us; and [as for] our iniquities, we know them;
Bangkongtetpawiteh, kâlawk eknae teh a hmaitung vah hoehoe apap. Ka yonae ni kamamouh koelah kapanuekkhaikung lah ao. Ka payon awh e pueng kamamouh koe ao teh, sakpayon e pueng hai kamamouh ni ka panue awh.
13 In transgressing and lying against the LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
Kâtapoenae, laithoe lahoi BAWIPA tarannae, Cathut hnamthun takhai e, repcoungroenae, taranthawnae lawk deinae, ka vawn awh teh, lungthin thung hoi laithoe lawk dei awh.
14 And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.
Kalan lah lawkcengnae ni hnam na thun takhai teh, kângingnae ni kahlatpoung e hmuen koe a kangdue. Lawkkatang teh lam dawk a rawp teh, lannae kâen thai hoeh.
15 Yes, truth faileth; and he [that] departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the LORD saw [it], and it displeased him that [there was] no judgment.
Lawkkatang teh a rawk toe. Thoenae ka roun e tami hah hnopainaw a lawp awh toe. BAWIPA ni hot hah a hmu teh, kângingnae ao hoeh toung dawkvah, a maithoe.
16 And he saw that [there was] no man, and wondered that [there was] no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation to him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.
Tami awm hoeh tie a hmu navah, ka kâhet pouh e awm hoeh tie hah kângai lah a ru. Hatdawkvah, a kut hoi roeroe rungngangnae letlang a sak teh, amae lannae lahoi letlang a kangdue sak.
17 For he put on righteousness as a breast-plate, and a helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance [for] clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.
Lannae hah bahling lah a patuep teh rungngangnae hah sumluhuem lah a kâmuk. Moipathungnae hoi a kamthoup teh, lungthahmeinae angkidung hah a kho.
18 According to [their] deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompense to his enemies; to the isles he will repay recompense.
A tawk a sak awh e patetlah aphu a hmu awh han. Ama ka taran e naw koe a lungkhueknae hah tarannaw ni khang han a kamcu e patetlah moi a pathung awh han.
19 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD will lift up a standard against him.
BAWIPA e min teh kanîloumlah hoi a taki awh vaiteh, a bawilennae hah kanîtho lahoi a taki awh han. Tarannaw teh tuikalen patetlah a tho navah, BAWIPA e Muitha ni ama hoi kâtaran lah a ngang han.
20 And the Redeemer will come to Zion, and to them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.
Zion vah ka ratangkung, Jakop kâtapoenae kamlang takhai naw koe a tho han telah BAWIPA ni ati.
21 As for me, this [is] my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that [is] upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.
Het hah doeh, ahnimouh hoi kaie lawkkam e teh telah BAWIPA ni ati. Na lathueng kaawm e ka Muitha hoi na pahni dawk ka hruek e ka lawk ni, na pahni thoseh, na catounnaw e pahni thoseh, na catounnaw e pahni thoseh, atu hoi a yungyoe hoi a yungyoe totouh tâcawt takhai mahoeh toe telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
