Isaiah 30
1 “Woe to the rebellious children”, says the LORD, “who take counsel, but not from me; and who make an alliance, but not with my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin;
Anunae a cilsuep te saii hamla BOEIPA kah olphong soah thinthah camoe rhoek aih. Tedae kai lamkah neh mueirhoi a hloe moenih. Ka mueihla kah bal moenih. Te dongah tholh te tholh neh a khoengvoep.
2 who set out to go down into Egypt without asking for my advice, to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to take refuge in the shadow of Egypt!
Pharaoh kah lunghim khuiah bakuep ham neh Egypt kah hlipkhup ah ying hamla Egypt aka suntlak thil tih aka cet rhoek loh kai kah olka he a dawt uh moenih.
3 Therefore the strength of Pharaoh will be your shame, and the refuge in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
Tedae Pharaoh kah lunghim te nangmih ham yahpohnah la, Egypt hlipkhup ah yingnah te khaw mingthae la poeh ni.
4 For their princes are at Zoan, and their ambassadors have come to Hanes.
A mangpa rhoek loh Zoan ah om uh tih a puencawn rhoek loh Hanes ham ben uh cakhaw,
5 They shall all be ashamed because of a people that can’t profit them, that are not a help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.”
pilnam te a hoeikhang pah voel pawt tih bomkung la a om pawt neh a hoeikhang pawt dongah boeih a borhim vetih yah a bai ni. Te dongah yahpohnah neh kokhahnah la om bal ni.
6 The burden of the animals of the South. Through the land of trouble and anguish, of the lioness and the lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they carry their riches on the shoulders of young donkeys, and their treasures on the humps of camels, to an unprofitable people.
Citcai khohmuen kah tuithim rhamsa ham olrhuh, sathuengnu a la neh sathueng lamkah, rhulthae neh minyuk aka ding kongah khobing coeng. A khuehtawn te laak kah a nam ah, a thakvoh te kalauk phuu dongah aka phuei rhoek he pilnam ham a hoeikhang moenih.
7 For Egypt helps in vain, and to no purpose; therefore I have called her Rahab who sits still.
Egypt long khaw a honghi neh a poeyoek lam ni a bom. Te dongah amih te, “Hoeng hoep Rahab,” la ka khue coeng.
8 Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and inscribe it in a book, that it may be for the time to come forever and ever.
Paan laeh, amih ham te cabael dongah daek lamtah, a cabu dongah tarhit pah laeh. Te daengah ni hmailong khohnin ham khaw, kumhal duela a om yoeyah eh.
9 For it is a rebellious people, lying children, children who will not hear the LORD’s law;
Laithae koca rhoek kah a ca rhoek, boekoek pilnam aih he, BOEIPA kah olkhueng tah hnatun ham huem uh pawh.
10 who tell the seers, “Don’t see!” and the prophets, “Don’t prophesy to us right things. Tell us pleasant things. Prophesy deceits.
Khohmu taengah, “Na hmuh pawt nim?” Tonghma rhoek taengah khaw kaimih ham oldueng na hmuh pawt nim?, phoknah na hmuh uh akhaw kaimih ham a hnal la thui uh.
11 Get out of the way. Turn away from the path. Cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.”
Longpuei lamloh nong uh, caehlong lamloh khoe uh. Israel kah a Cim te mamih mikhmuh lamloh kangkuen saeh,” a ti uh.
12 Therefore the Holy One of Israel says, “Because you despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and rely on it,
Te dongah Israel kah a cim loh, “Hekah olka he na sit uh. Hnaemtaeknah dongah na pangtung uh tih khohmang neh a soah na pangnal uh.
13 therefore this iniquity shall be to you like a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking comes suddenly in an instant.
Te dongah nangmih taengah tathaesainah he khaw vongtung dongah a puut loh a yam tih a cungku bangla ha om ni. Aka pomdoep uh khaw a pocinah lam ni buengrhuet a om pahoi mai.
14 He will break it as a potter’s vessel is broken, breaking it in pieces without sparing, so that there won’t be found amongst the broken pieces a piece good enough to take fire from the hearth, or to dip up water out of the cistern.”
Amsai loh tuitang kaek a dae banghui la rhek vetih lungma ti mahpawh. Hmai rhong dongkah hmai soh ham neh kangueng lamkah tui bak nah ham kangna khaw paikaek kah a kaek te hmu mahpawh.
15 For thus said the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel, “You will be saved in returning and rest. Your strength will be in quietness and in confidence.” You refused,
Te dongah ni Israel kah a cim ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Maelnah neh mongnah dongah a mong la n'khang coeng tih ueppangnah dongah na thayung thamal khaw om dae ta na ngaih uh pawh.
16 but you said, “No, for we will flee on horses;” therefore you will flee; and, “We will ride on the swift;” therefore those who pursue you will be swift.
Te phoeiah, “Moenih, te ham te marhang dongah ka rhaelrham uh bitni,” na ti uh. Na rhaelrham uh vaengah, “Yanghoep la n'ngol uh,” na ti uh dongah nangmih aka hloem rhoek khaw yanghoep uh van ni.
17 One thousand will flee at the threat of one. At the threat of five, you will flee until you are left like a beacon on the top of a mountain, and like a banner on a hill.
Tlang lu kah cungkui bangla, som sokah rholik bangla na cul uh hil pakhat kah tluungnah dongah, panga kah tluungnah dongah khaw thawng khat la na rhaelrham uh ni.
18 Therefore the LORD will wait, that he may be gracious to you; and therefore he will be exalted, that he may have mercy on you, for the LORD is a God of justice. Blessed are all those who wait for him.
Tedae BOEIPA loh nangmih rhen ham n'rhingda tangloeng tih nangmih aka haidam la pomsang uh tangkhuet. Tiktamnah Pathen Yahovah amah te aka rhingda boeih tah a yoethen.
19 For the people will dwell in Zion at Jerusalem. You will weep no more. He will surely be gracious to you at the voice of your cry. When he hears you, he will answer you.
Jerusalem kah khosa Zion pilnam aw na rhap rhoe na rhap voel mahpawh. Na pang ol te a yaak vaengah n'rhen rhoe, n'rhen vetih nang te n'doo ni.
20 Though the Lord may give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet your teachers won’t be hidden any more, but your eyes will see your teachers;
Boeipa loh nang te rhal kah buh neh hnaemtaeknah tui m'pae cakhaw na saya rhoek te khaw khoe mahpawh. Tedae na saya aka hmu rhoek te na mik ah om bitni.
21 and when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way. Walk in it.”
Na hnuk lamkah ol loh, “Longpuei he bantang ah khaw, banvoei ah khaw cet mailai,” a ti te na hna loh a yaak bitni.
22 You shall defile the overlaying of your engraved images of silver, and the plating of your molten images of gold. You shall cast them away as an unclean thing. You shall tell it, “Go away!”
Na cak ben mueidaep neh, na sui mueihloe pholip khaw na poeih ni. Te rhoek te na pumthim hainak bangla thaek uh vetih, “Acih hoeih,” na ti ni.
23 He will give the rain for your seed, with which you will sow the ground; and bread of the increase of the ground will be rich and plentiful. In that day, your livestock will feed in large pastures.
Te vaengah khohmuen kah na tuh na cangti te khotlan loh a suep ni. Khohmuen kah cangpai buh neh kuirhang la na om ni. Tekah khohnin ah tah rhamtlim dangka ah na boiva loh pulpulh luem ni.
24 The oxen likewise and the young donkeys that till the ground will eat savoury feed, which has been winnowed with the shovel and with the fork.
Diklai kah aka tho aka tat saelhung neh laak pataeng cangcopcung neh, rha neh a hlaih canghlaih, kamvuelh ni a caak eh.
25 There will be brooks and streams of water on every lofty mountain and on every high hill in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
Tlang sang tom ah khaw, som tom ah khaw ana om saeh. Rhaltoengim a cungku ham vaengkah ngawnnah a len khohnin ah sokca rhahlawn tui loh phul coeng.
26 Moreover the light of the moon will be like the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD binds up the fracture of his people, and heals the wound they were struck with.
Hla kah a vang te khomik kah a vang bangla om ni. Khomik kah a vang khaw khohnin hnin rhih kah a vang bangla a pueh parhih la om ni. BOEIPA long tah a pilnam kah a tlawt te a poi pah tih a hmapuei hmasoe khaw a hoeih sak.
27 Behold, the LORD’s name comes from far away, burning with his anger, and in thick rising smoke. His lips are full of indignation. His tongue is as a devouring fire.
BOEIPA kah a ming tah khohla bangsang lamkah a thintoek aka ung khui lamkah ha thoeng coeng ke. A hmuilai kah kosi hmaihu te a thah la baetawt tih a ol khaw hmai bangla tak.
28 His breath is as an overflowing stream that reaches even to the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of destruction. A bridle that leads to ruin will be in the jaws of the peoples.
A hil khaw rhawn duela a muelh tih aka yo soklong la, namtom te poeyoek khamyai ah vairhuek la, pilnam kam dongkah a hmaang kamrhui la.
29 You will have a song, as in the night when a holy feast is kept, and gladness of heart, as when one goes with a flute to come to the LORD’s mountain, to Israel’s Rock.
Laa khaw nangmih taengah tah khotue a ciim hlaem kah bangla om vetih, BOEIPA tlang kah Israel lungpang paan hamla phitphoet neh aka thoeih bangla thinko kah kohoenah khaw om ni.
30 The LORD will cause his glorious voice to be heard, and will show the descent of his arm, with the indignation of his anger and the flame of a devouring fire, with a blast, storm, and hailstones.
A ol mueithennah te BOEIPA loh n'yaak sak vetih, hmaihluei aka hlawp rhonam, hlipuei neh rhaelnu lungto, thintoek thinkoeh dongah a ban loh a mong la m'hmuh sak ni.
31 For through the LORD’s voice the Assyrian will be dismayed. He will strike him with his rod.
BOEIPA ol loh Assyria te a rhihyawp sak vetih, mancai neh a ngawn ni.
32 Every stroke of the rod of punishment, which the LORD will lay on him, will be with the sound of tambourines and harps. He will fight with them in battles, brandishing weapons.
BOEIPA loh a ning a hol pah vaengah a pum dongkah kamrhing te khaw, rhotoeng khaw caitueng kah lamkai la boeih a poeh pah. Te vaengah caemtloek kah thueng hmueih loh amih te a vathoh thil ni.
33 For his burning place has long been ready. Yes, it is prepared for the king. He has made its pyre deep and large with fire and much wood. The LORD’s breath, like a stream of sulphur, kindles it.
Tophet khaw hlaemvai lamkah ni rhong a pai thil coeng. Te khaw manghai ham a soepsoei pah rhoe. A hlanhmai te a dung a ka sak tih hmai te khaw thing muep a hueng thil. BOEIPA kah a hiil loh kat hmai soklong bangla te te a dom.
