Isaiah 64
1 Oh that thou wouldst rend the heavens, that thou wouldst come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence,
Oe, Nang ni kalvan paawng nateh kum haw. Na hmalah monnaw kâhuen naseh.
2 [As when] the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thy adversaries, [that] the nations may tremble at thy presence!
Hmai ni songnawng a kak e patetlah thoseh, tui a tangdo sak e patetlah thoseh, awm naseh. Hottelah pawiteh, na tarannaw ni na min panuek awh vaiteh, na hmalah vah miphun pueng ni a pâyaw awh han.
3 When thou didst terrible things [which] we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down at thy presence.
Kaimouh ni ka ngaihawi awh hoeh e hlak, kângairu hno a sak toteh, na tho teh, monnaw teh na hmalah a kâhuet awh.
4 For since the beginning of the world [men] have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, besides thee, [what] he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.
Ama kangaihawinaw hmalah hawinae ka sak e Cathut, nang hloilah alouke Cathut hah talai pek kamtawng hoi apinihai panuek boihoeh, hnâ hoi hai thai boi hoeh, mit hoi hmawt boihoeh.
5 Thou meetest him that rejoiceth, and worketh righteousness, [those that] remember thee in thy ways: behold, thou art wroth; for we have sinned: in those is continuance, and we shall be saved.
Onawmnae lahoi kalan lah ka tawk e, na lamthung dawk nang ka pahnim hoeh e, hah nang ni na kâhmo, bokheiyah, na lungkhuek. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka payon awh toe. Hete lamthung heh pou ka dawn awh toe. Rungngang lah kaawm awh han rah nama aw.
6 But we are all as an unclean [thing], and all our righteousnesses [are] as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, kathounghoehe patetlah koung o awh toe. Lannae pueng teh, kakhin e hna hoi a kâvan. Maimouh pueng teh thinghna patetlah kamyai awh teh, mamae yonnae ni kahlî patetlah na palek awh.
7 And [there is] none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
Na min ka kaw e, nang dawk kâuep hanelah mahoima kâhroecoe e tami buet touh boehai awm hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a minhmai a hro teh, maimouh hah mamae yon dawk na raphoe awh toe.
8 But now, O LORD, thou [art] our father; we [are] the clay, and thou our potter; and we all [are] the work of thy hand.
Hatei, Jehovah, nang teh kaimae na pa lah na o. Kaimouh teh amhrulai lah ka o awh. Nang teh kaimae hlaamkabokung lah na o. Kaimouh pueng teh, na kut hoi na sak e hno lah ao.
9 Be not very wroth, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever: behold, see, we beseech thee, we [are] all thy people.
Oe BAWIPA, puenghoi na lungkhuek sak hanh. Kangeknae yon hah pou pâkuem hanh. Khenhaw! Kaimouh pueng teh BAWIPA e tami doeh.
10 Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
Kho kathoung teh kahrawng lah ao toe. Zion mon hai kahrawng lah ao toe. Jerusalem kho hai a rawk toe.
11 Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee, is burned with fire: and all our pleasant things are laid waste.
Mintoenaw ni nang na pholennae hmuen, kaimae kathoung ni teh a mei kahawi e im teh, hmai a kak toe. Kaimouh ni ka ngai poung awh e hmuennaw teh koung a rawk toe.
12 Wilt thou refrain thyself for these [things], O LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and grievously afflict us?
Oe BAWIPA, hetnaw heh na panguep han na ou. Duem na o takhai vaiteh, maimanaw hah puenghoi na ru sak han maw.
