Isaiah 56
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Berean Standard Bible
1Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih, toenghaih to patawn ah loe, kamsoem hmuen to sah oh; ka pahlonghaih hoi ka toenghaih amtuenghaih atue to phak tom boeh.
1This is what the LORD says: “Maintain justice and do what is right, for My salvation is coming soon, and My righteousness will be revealed.
2Hae hmuen sah kami, kacakah patawn kami, Sabbath ni aek ai ah zah moe, kahoih ai hmuen sak han ai ah ban pakhuem duem kaminawk loe tahamhoih o.
2Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds it fast, who keeps the Sabbath without profaning it and keeps his hand from doing any evil.”
3Angraeng khaeah angzo prae kalah kami mah, Kai loe Angraeng mah angmah ih kaminawk thung hoiah takhoe ving boeh, tiah thui hmah nasoe; tangyat mii kadueh kami mah doeh, Khenah, kai loe thing kazaek tok ni, tiah poek hmah nasoe.
3Let no foreigner who has joined himself to the LORD say, “The LORD will utterly exclude me from His people.” And let the eunuch not say, “I am but a dry tree.”
4Kai ih Sabbath ni zaa tangzat mii kadueh kami khaeah Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; ka koeh ih hmuennawk to sah moe, ka lokmaihaih kacakah patawn kaminawk loe,
4For this is what the LORD says: “To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths, who choose what pleases Me and hold fast to My covenant—
5Ka im thung hoi kai ih tapang nuiah capanawk hoi canunawk pongah kahoih kue ahmin to ka paek han; angphrae thai ai dungzan ahmin to ka paek han.
5I will give them, in My house and within My walls, a memorial and a name better than that of sons and daughters. I will give them an everlasting name that will not be cut off.
6Angraeng khaeah toksakhaih, anih ih ahmin palunghaih, tamna ah oh hanah, Angraeng khaeah angzo prae kalah kaminawk, Sabbath ni aek ai ah zaa kaminawk boih hoi ka lokmaihaih kacakah patawn kaminawk loe,
6And the foreigners who join themselves to the LORD to minister to Him, to love the name of the LORD, and to be His servants— all who keep the Sabbath without profaning it and who hold fast to My covenant—
7Kaimah ih kaciim mae ah ka caeh haih moe, lawkthuihaih ka im ah anghoehaih hoiah ka ohsak han; ka hmaicam nuiah a sak o ih hmai angbawnhaih hoi a paek o ih angbawnhaih moi to ka talawk pae han; ka im loe prae kaminawk boih lawkthuihaih im, tiah kawk o tih.
7I will bring them to My holy mountain and make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and sacrifices will be accepted on My altar, for My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations.”
8Ahmuen kruekah kamhet Israel kaminawk pakhuengkung Angraeng Sithaw mah, pakhueng tangcae ih kaminawk pacoengah, kalah kaminawk doeh anih khaeah ka pakhueng han vop, tiah thuih.
8Thus declares the Lord GOD, who gathers the dispersed of Israel: “I will gather to them still others besides those already gathered.”
9Taw ih moinawk boih, ue, taw thung ih moinawk boih, caak han angzo oh!
9Come, all you beasts of the field; eat greedily, all you beasts of the forest.
10Israel ih misatoep kaminawk loe mikmaeng o; nihcae loe panoekhaih vawt o, uk thai ai ui baktih oh o moe, uk o thai ai; nihcae loe iih koeh o, tabok o moe, iih angam o.
10Israel’s watchmen are blind, they are all oblivious; they are all mute dogs, they cannot bark; they are dreamers lying around, loving to slumber.
11Ue, nihcae loe boep thai ai caak kamoeh uinawk ni, nihcae loe panoekhaih tawn ai tuutoep kami ah oh o; nihcae loe angmacae koehhaih loklam bangah anghae o boih, kami boih angmacae amekhaih khue ni pakrong o.
11Like ravenous dogs, they are never satisfied. They are shepherds with no discernment; they all turn to their own way, each one seeking his own gain:
12Angzo oh, misurtui ka sinh han! Palung khuek tih karoek to mu nae o noek si! Khawnbang doeh vaihni baktiah ni om tih, vaihi pongah doeh pop kue tih, tiah nihcae mah thuih o.
12“Come, let me get the wine, let us imbibe the strong drink, and tomorrow will be like today, only far better!”
