1In those days Ezechias was sick even to death, and Isaias the son of Amos the prophet came unto him, and said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Take order with thy house, for thou shalt die, and not live.
1Te a tue rhuet ah Hezekiah tah a duek ham rhoela tlo. Te vaengah tonghma Amoz capa Isaiah tah anih taengla ha pawk tih amah te, “BOEIPA loh na imkhui ham n'uen tih a thui coeng dongah na duek pawn ni, na hing mahpawh,” a ti nah.
2And Ezechias turned his face toward the wall, and prayed to the Lord,
2Tedae Hezekiah loh a maelhmai te pangbueng taengla a hoi tih BOEIPA taengah thangthui.
3And said: I beseech thee, O Lord, remember how I have walked before thee in truth, and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Ezechias wept with great weeping.
3Te vaengah, “Aw BOEIPA na mikhmuh ah uepomnah neh ka pongpa te khaw ham poek laem lah. Na mikhmuh ah lungbuei a rhuemtuet la a then ni ka saii,” a ti. Te vaengah Hezekiah a rhah rhoe mah hlawk hlawk rhap.
4And the word of the Lord came to Isaias, saying:
4Te dongah BOEIPA ol loh Isaiah taengla ha pawk tih,
5Go and say to Ezechias: Thus saith the Lord the God of David thy father: I have heard thy prayer, and I have seen thy tears: behold I will add to thy days fifteen years:
5Hezekiah taengah cet lamtah thui pah, na pa David kah Pathen Yahovah loh nang kah thangthuinah te ka yaak coeng, na mikphi ka hmuh coeng ti nah. Te dongah na khohnin te kai loh kum hlai nga kan thap coeng he.
6And I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians, and I will protect it.
6Namah neh hekah khopuei he Assyria manghai kut lamkah ka huul vetih khopuei he khaw ka tungaep ni.
7And this shall be a sign to thee from the Lord, that the Lord will do this word which he hath spoken:
7BOEIPA taeng lamkah miknoek pakhat he nang ham coeng ni. BOEIPA loh ol a thui tangtae bangla a saii ni.
8Behold I will bring again the shadow of the lines, by which it is now gone down in the sun dial of Achaz with the sun, ten lines backward. And the sun returned ten lines by the degrees by which it was gone down.
8Khomik te tangtlaeng parha ka thoeih sak tih Ahaz kah tangtlaeng dongah aka tla tangtlaeng mueihlip te ka mael sak coeng he,” a ti nah. Khomik khaw tangtlaeng dongah a caeh vanbangla tangtlaeng parha hil ah mael tangloeng.
9The writing of Ezechias king of Juda, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness.
9Amah te nue coeng dae a tloh khui lamloh a hing vaengah Judah manghai Hezekiah kah cadaek.
10I said: In the midst of my days I shall go to the gates of hell: I sought for the residue of my years.
10Kai tah, “Saelkhui vongka ah, ka khohnin he dingsueknah neh ka pongpa puei mai vetih, ka kum noi ka bawt mai mako,” ka ti.
11I said: I shall not see the Lord God in the land of the living. I shall behold man no more, nor the inhabitant of rest.
11Mulhing khohmuen kah BOEIPA tah ka hmu voel mahpawh, lunghnilhkho kah khosa rhoek taengah hlang koep ka paelki mahpawh ka ti coeng.
12My generation is at an end, and it is rolled away from me, as a shepherd’s tent. My life is cut off, as by a weaver: whilst I was yet but beginning, he out me off: from morning even to night thou wilt make an end of me.
12Ka thawnpuei te a khum puei tih kai kah boiva aka dawn kah dap bangla kai taeng lamloh a khuen. Hni aka tak bangla ka hingnah a awn tih phaivoep dong lamloh kai m'mueluem. Te dongah khothaih lamloh khoyin duela kai nan thuung sak.
13I hoped till morning, as a lion so hath he broken all my bones: from morning even to night thou wilt make an end of me.
13Mincang due sathueng bangla ka hnil tih ka rhuh khaw boeih a khaem te khothaih lamloh khoyin duela kai nan thuung sak.
14I will cry like a young swallow, I will meditate like a dove: my eyes are weakened looking upward: Lord, I suffer violence, answer thou for me.
14Vasoe, langloep bangla ka cip tih vahui bangla ka tuk. Ka mik hmuensang la tlayae sut. Boeipa aw kai taengkah hnaemtaeknah soah kai hamla rhikhang lah.
15What shall I say, or what shall he answer for me, whereas he himself hath done it? I will recount to thee all my years in the bitterness of my soul.
15Kai taengah a thui tih amah loh a saii coeng dongah metlae ka ti eh? Ka hinglu kah khahing neh ka kum boeih khaw vawlhvawlh ka van mai bitni.
16O Lord, if man’s life be such, and the life of my spirit be in such things as these, thou shalt correct me, and make me to live.
16Ka Boeipa aw te rhoek neh hing mai saeh. A khuikah aka om boeih nen ni ka mueihla kah a hingnah khaw a om. Te dongah kai he nan man sak akhaw kai n'hing sak mai.
17Behold in peace is my bitterness most bitter: but thou best delivered my soul that it should not perish, thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.
17Ka taengkah khahing neh ka phaep uh he sadingnah ham ni. Namah loh vaam khui lamkah ka hinglu he na ven bueng kolla ka tholhnah boeih te na nam la na voeih coeng.
18For hell shall not confess to thee, neither shall death praise thee: nor shall they that go down into the pit, look for thy truth.
18Nang aka uem te saelkhui moenih. Dueknah loh nang n'thangthen nim. Tangrhom ah aka suntla rhoek loh na oltak te a lamso moenih.
19The living, the living, he shall give praise to thee, as I do this day: the father shall make thy truth known to the children.
19Aka hing aka hing long ni namah te kai bangla ng'uem dae amah. Tihnin ah ana pa loh camoe rhoek taengah na oltak te a ming sak pai.
20O Lord, save me, and we will sing our psalms all the days of our life in the house of the Lord.
20BOEIPA loh kai n'khang dongah mamih kah hingnah tue a om khui atah BOEIPA im ah rhotoeng n'tum uh pawn ni.
21Now Isaias had ordered that they should take a lump of figs, and lay it as it plaster upon the wound, and that he should be healed.
21Te phoeiah Isaiah loh, “Thaibu thaidae lo saehlamtah buhlut te ben saeh, anih te hing bitni,” a ti nah.
22And Ezechias bed said: What shall be the sign that I shall go up to the house of the Lord?
22Hezekiah loh, “Mebang miknoek nen lae BOEIPA im la ka caeh eh?,” a ti nah.
