Isaiah 51
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1Toenghaih hnukah pazui moe, Angraeng pakrong kaminawk, ka lok hae tahngai oh; na aah o ih lungsong hoi na takaeh o ih tangqom to khen oh;
1Hearken to Me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the LORD; look unto the rock whence ye were hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye were digged.
2nam pa Abraham hoi nangcae cunkung Sarah to khen oh; tangsuek naah loe anih khue ni ka kawk, toe tahamhoihaih ka paek pongah, anih loe kating ai ah pung.
2Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that bore you; for when he was but one I called him, and I blessed him, and made him many.
3Angraeng mah Zion to mongsak tih; kamro ahmuennawk boih doeh mongsak tih; anih ih praezaek to Eden baktiah angcoengsak ueloe, anih ih long karoem ahmuen to Angraeng ih takha baktiah angcoengsak tih; athung ah loe anghoehaih, oephaih, anghoe lok thuihaih hoi laasakhaih loknawk to om tih.
3For the LORD hath comforted Zion; He hath comforted all her waste places, and hath made her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
4Kai ih kaminawk, ka lok hae tahngai oh; Aw ka caengnawk, kai khaeah naa patueng oh; patuk ih toenghaih lok loe kai khae hoiah tacawt tih, ka toenghaih loe prae kaminawk hanah aanghaih ah om tih.
4Attend unto Me, O My people, and give ear unto Me, O My nation; for instruction shall go forth from Me, and My right on a sudden for a light of the peoples.
5Ka toenghaih loe zoi boeh, ka pahlonghaih doeh longh li boeh, ka ban mah kaminawk to lokcaek tih; tuipui thung ih prae kaminawk mah kai to zing o ueloe, ka ban thacakhaih to oep o tih.
5My favour is near, My salvation is gone forth, and Mine arms shall judge the peoples; the isles shall wait for Me, and on Mine arm shall they trust.
6Van ah na mik padai o tahang ah loe long ah khen o tathuk ah; van loe hmaikhue baktiah anghmaa ving tih, long doeh kahni baktiah prawn ueloe, athung ah kaom kaminawk loe taksae baktiah dueh o tih.
6Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath; for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner; but My salvation shall be for ever, and My favour shall not be abolished.
7Toenghaih panoek kaminawk hoi palung thungah ka patuk ih lok suem kaminawk, ka lok hae tahngai oh; kaminawk mah zoehhaih to zii o hmah, nihcae mah kasae thuihaih pongah doeh tasoeh o hmah.
7Hearken unto Me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is My law; fear ye not the taunt of men, neither be ye dismayed at their revilings.
8Karaa mah nihcae to kahni baktiah caa king ueloe, langkawk mah nihcae to tuumui baktiah caa tih; toe ka toenghaih loe dungzan khoek to cak poe tih, ka pahlonghaih doeh caanawk ih adung khoek to om poe tih.
8For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool; but My favour shall be for ever, and My salvation unto all generations.
9Aw Angraeng ih ban nang, Angthawk ah, anglawt ah loe thacakhaih hoiah om ah; canghnii ih ni kalaem baktih, adung kangquem baktiah, angthawk ah. Rahab to takroek pat moe, pahui pui ahmaa caasakkung loe nang na ai maw?
9Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the LORD; awake, as in the days of old, the generations of ancient times. Art thou not it that hewed Rahab in pieces, that pierced the dragon?
10Tuipui hoi kathuk parai tuinawk kangsakkung loe nang na ai maw? Kathuk tuipui nuiah akrang tangcae kaminawk caehhaih loklam sahkung loe nang na ai maw?
10Art thou not it that dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; that made the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass over?
11To pongah Angraeng mah akrang tangcae kaminawk to amlaem o let ueloe, laasakhaih hoiah Zion ah akun o tih; nihcae loe dungzan anghoehaih lumuek to angmuek o tih; oephaih hoi anghoehaih to hnu o tih; to naah palungsethaih hoi qahhaih loe cawn ving tih boeh.
11And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto Zion, and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
12Nangcae pathloepkung loe Kai, kaimah hae boeh ni; kadueh thaih kami, phroh baktiah azaem thaih kami capa to maw na zit o?
12I, even I, am He that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou art afraid of man that shall die, and of the son of man that shall be made as grass;
13Vannawk payuengkung, long angdoethaih sahkung, nang sahkung Angraeng to na pahnet ving boeh; pacaekthlaekkung mah kai hae hum tih boeh, tiah palung thung hoiah na poek o moe, ni thokkruek zithaih hoiah kho na sak o; pacaekthlaek kami palungphuihaih loe naa ah maw oh?
13And hast forgotten the LORD thy Maker, that stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and fearest continually all the day because of the fury of the oppressor, as he maketh ready to destroy? And where is the fury of the oppressor?
14Thongkrah kaminawk loe thongim thungah dueh o mak ai, zok doeh amthlam o mak ai, anih loe loih phrat tih.
14He that is bent down shall speedily be loosed; and he shall not go down dying into the pit, neither shall his bread fail.
15Kai loe tuipui mah hangh hanah, tuipui angthawksakkung Angraeng na Sithaw ah ka oh; Anih ih ahmin loe misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, tiah oh.
15For I am the LORD thy God, who stirreth up the sea, that the waves thereof roar; the LORD of hosts is His name.
16Vannawk angmah ih ahmuen ah suemkung, long angdoethaih ahmuen sahkung, Zion khaeah, Nangcae loe kai ih kami ah na oh o, tiah thuih hanah, na pakha ah ka loknawk to ka suek moe, ka ban hoiah kang pakaa boeh.
16And I have put My words in thy mouth, and have covered thee in the shadow of My hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion: 'Thou art My people.'
17Angraeng ban ih palungphuihaih boengloeng kanae Aw Jerusalem, anglawt lai ah, angthawk ah loe angdoe ah; tasoehhaih boengloeng to na naek boeh; anaengnawk doeh na naek boih boeh.
17Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem, that hast drunk at the hand of the LORD the cup of His fury; thou hast drunken the beaker, even the cup of staggering, and drained it.
18Angmah tapen ih capanawk thungah hoiah angmah han loklam patuekkung mi doeh om o ai; angmah pacah ih capanawk thungah doeh, anih ban hoiah zae kami om o ai.
18There is none to guide her among all the sons whom she hath brought forth; neither is there any that taketh her by the hand of all the sons that she hath brought up.
19Patangkhanghaih hnetto ah kaom, caaknaek khaa pongah kami amrohaih ah kaom sumsen hoi duekhaih to na nuiah phak naah, mi mah maw na qah haih tih? Kawbangmaw kang pathloep thai han?
19These two things are befallen thee; who shall bemoan thee? desolation and destruction, and the famine and the sword; how shall I comfort thee?
20Na capanawk loe tha zok o sut boeh moe, thaang pongah aman sathar baktiah, lamkrung kruekah angsongh o; nihcae loe Angraeng palungphuihaih hoi na Sithaw thuitaekhaih to amhah o sut boeh.
20Thy sons have fainted, they lie at the head of all the streets, as an antelope in a net; they are full of the fury of the LORD, the rebuke of thy God.
21To pongah pacaekthlaekhaih tongh kami, misurtui hoi nae ai ah mu paquih kami, vaihi tahngai ah;
21Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine;
22angmah ih kaminawk khenzawnkung, na Sithaw, na Angraeng Sithaw mah, Khenah, na ban pong ih tasoehhaih boengloeng, palung ka phuihaih boengloeng pong ih anaengnawk to na naek let han ai ah, na ban thung hoiah ka lak ving boeh:
22Thus saith thy Lord the LORD, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of His people: behold, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of staggering; the beaker, even the cup of My fury, thou shalt no more drink it again;
23na nuiah caeh kaminawk hanah, loklam baktiah na takpum to long ah baih pae ah, na nuiah ka caeh o thai hanah, long ah tabok oh, tiah kathui, nangcae pacaekthlaek kaminawk ban ah to boengloeng to ka suek pae han, tiah a thuih.
23And I will put it into the hand of them that afflict thee; that have said to thy soul: 'Bow down, that we may go over'; and thou hast laid thy back as the ground, and as the street, to them that go over.
