Isaiah 42
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Khenah ka caksak ih ka tamna; ka qoih ih kami, palung koek ih loe anih ni; a nuiah ka Muithla to ka suek, anih mah Gentel kaminawk hanah toenghaih to sin pae tih.
1Behold my servant, I will uphold him: my elect, my soul delighteth in him: I have given my spirit upon him, he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
2Anih loe loklam ah hang mak ai, lok to aek mak ai, mi mah doeh anih ih lok to thai mak ai.
2He shall not cry, nor have respect to person, neither shall his voice be heard abroad.
3Ahmaa kaom akung to anih mah khaek mak ai, kadueh tom hmai doeh paduek mak ai; anih mah oephaih hoi toenghaih to sin tih.
3The bruised reed he shall not break, and smoking flax he shall not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.
4Anih loe long ah toenghaih om ai karoek to, palungboeng mak ai, tha doeh sae mak ai; tui mah takui ih prae kaminawk mah anih patukhaih to zing o tih.
4He shall not be sad, nor troublesome, till he set judgment in the earth: and the islands shall wait for his law.
5Vannawk sak pacoengah, payuengkung; long thungah kaom hmuennawk boih pungsakkung, long ah kaom kaminawk han anghahaih takhi paekkung, long cawh kaminawk hanah hinghaih takhi paekkung, Angraeng Sithaw mah hae tiah thuih;
5Thus saith the Lord God that created the heavens, and stretched them out: that established the earth, and the things that spring out of it: that giveth breath to the people upon it, and spirit to them that tread thereon.
6Kai Angraeng mah toenghaih hoiah kang kawk, na ban to kang patawnh pae moe, kang toep han; kaminawk lokmaihaih hoi Gentelnawk aanghaih ah kang suek han;
6I the Lord have called thee in justice, and taken thee by the hand, and preserved thee. And I have given thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles:
7mikmaengnawk ih mik to amtuengsak moe, thongkrah kaminawk loisak pacoengah, thongkrakhaih im kaving thungah anghnu kaminawk prawt kami ah kang suek han.
7That thou mightest open the eyes of the blind, and bring forth the prisoner out of prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.
8Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh; ka hmin loe to tiah oh; ka lensawkhaih to minawk kalah khaeah ka paek mak ai, kai pakoehhaih doeh sak cop ih krangnawk khaeah ka paek mak ai.
8I the Lord, this is my name: I will not give my glory to another, nor my praise to graven things.
9Khenah, hmaloe ah ka thuih ih hmuennawk loe oh tangtang boeh, vaihi loe kangtha hmuennawk ni ka thuih; to hmuennawk om ai naah kang thuih coek boeh, tiah a naa.
9The things that were first, behold they are come: and new things do I declare: before they spring forth, I will make you head them.
10Tuipui thung caeh kaminawk hoi tuipui thungah kaom hmuennawk boih, tuipui mah takui ih prae kaminawk hoi a thungah kaom kaminawk boih, Angraeng khaeah laa kangtha to sah oh loe long boenghaih hoiah anih saphawhaih laa to sah oh.
10Sing ye to the Lora a new song, his praise is from the ends of the earth: you that go down to the sea, and all that are therein: ye islands, and ye inhabitants of them.
11Praezaeknawk hoi to ah kaom vangpuinawk loe tha hoiah hang o nasoe, Kedar ih kaminawk doeh anghoe o nasoe; lungsong pongah kaom kaminawk mah anghoehaih laa to sah o nasoe loe, mae nui hoiah hang o nasoe.
11Let the desert and the cities thereof be exalted: Cedar shall dwell in houses: ye inhabitants of Petra, give praise, they shall cry from the top of the mountains.
12Angraeng khaeah lensawkhaih paek o nasoe, tuipui thung ih praenawk khaeah anih saphawhaih laa to panoek o sak nasoe.
12They shall give glory to the Lord, and shall declare his praise in the islands.
13Angraeng loe thacak kami baktiah caeh ueloe, misatuh kami baktiah minawk palungthin to pahruek tih; hanghaih hoi misatukhaih lok to thui tih, ue, hang ueloe, a misanawk to pazawk tih.
13The Lord shall go forth as a mighty man, as a man of war shall he stir up zeal: he shall shout and cry: he shall prevail against his enemies.
14Kai loe atue kasawk ah kam uep; lok apae ai ah ka oh duem, pauephaih hoiah kho ka sak; toe vaihi loe nongpata caa oh natuem ih kana aham baktih toengah, ka hangh han; vaito ah kam rosak phaeng han.
14I have always held my peace, I have I kept silence, I have been patient, I will speak now as a woman in labour: I will destroy, and swallow up at once.
15Maenawk hoi maesomnawk to ka pongsak sut moe, phrohnawk doeh ka zaeksak boih han; vapui tui to ka kangsak moe, tuilinawk doeh ka kangsak boih han.
15I will lay waste the mountains and hills, and will make all their grass to wither: and I will turn rivers into islands, and will dry up the standing pools.
16Nihcae mah panoek o vai ai ih loklam hoiah mikmaengnawk to ka zaeh han; nihcae mah panoek o vai ai ih loklam ah ka caeh haih han; nihcae hmaa ih vinghaih to aanghaih ah kang coengsak moe, kangkawn loklamnawk to ka patoengh han. Nihcae khaeah hae hmuennawk hae ka sak pae han, nihcae to ka pahnawt sut mak ai.
16And I will lead the blind into the way which they know not: and in the paths which they were ignorant of I will make them walk: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight: these things have I done to them, and have not forsaken them.
17Sak cop ih krang oep kaminawk, krangnawk khaeah, Nangcae loe kaicae ih sithaw ah na oh o, tiah thui kaminawk loe azathaih hoiah hnukbang ah amlaem o let tih.
17They are turned back: let them be greatly confounded, that trust in a graven thing, that say to a molten thing: You are our god.
18Nangcae naapang kaminawk, tahngai oh; nangcae mikmaengnawk, na hnuk o thai hanah, khen oh.
18Hear, ye deaf, and, ye blind, behold that you may see.
19Mi maw ka tamna baktiah mik kamaeng, to tih ai boeh loe mi maw ka patoeh ih laicaeh baktiah naa kapang? Kai khaeah angpaek kami baktih, Angraeng ih tamna baktiah mi maw mikmaeng ah kaom?
19Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, but he to whom I have sent my messengers? Who is blind, but he that is sold? or who is blind, but the servant of the Lord?
20Hmuen kating ai na hnuk o boeh, toe tidoeh na poek o ai; naa doeh akhaw to mah na thaih o ai.
20Thou that seest many things, wilt thou not observe them? thou that hast ears open, wilt thou not hear?
21Angraeng loe a toenghaih pongah ni anghoe, a patuk ih lok to pakoeh moe, lensawkhaih hoiah koisak.
21And the Lord was willing to sanctify him, and to magnify the law, and exalt it.
22Hae acaeng loe amrohaih hoi lomhaih tongh kami ah oh; nihcae loe tangqom thungah krak o moe, thongim thungah anghawk o boih; amrohaih tongh o naah, mi mah doeh akrang ai; hmuenmae lomh pae o naah, mi mah doeh paek o let ah, tiah thui pae o ai.
22But this is a people that is robbed and wasted: they are all the snare of young men, and they are hid in the houses of prisons: they are made a prey, and there is none to deliver them: a spoil, and there is none that saith: Restore.
23Tipongah hae kaminawk loe lok tahngai o ai loe? Angzo han koi atue to panoek moe, pakuem kami oh o maw?
23Who is there among you that will give ear to this, that will attend and hearken for times to come?
24Mi mah maw lomh hanah Jacob to paek moe, mingcahnawk ban ah Israel to paek? A zae o pongah to tiah paekkung loe Angraeng angmah na ai maw? Nihcae loe Angraeng ih loklam to pazui o ai moe, anih mah patuk ih lok doeh tahngai pae o ai.
24Who hath given Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to robbers? hath not the Lord himself, against whom we have sinned? And they would not walk in his ways, and they have not hearkened to his law.
25To pongah nihcae nuiah hmai baktih kamngaeh palungphuihaih to kraih moe, kanung parai misatukhaih to phaksak; nihcae loe hmai mah takui khoep, toe panoek o ai toengtoeng vop; hmaipalai mah kangh boeh, toe tidoeh sah ai ah oh o toengtoeng vop.
25And he hath poured out upon him the indignation of his fury, and a strong battle, and hath burnt him round about, and he knew not: and set him on fire, and he understood not.
