1Israel ming la a khue Jakob imkhui neh Judah tui lamkah aka thoeng tih Yahovah ming neh aka toemngam rhoek loh hnatun uh. Israel Pathen a phoei uh khaw oltak nen pawt tih duengnah nen bal moenih.
1“Listen to this, O house of Jacob, you who are called by the name of Israel, who have descended from the line of Judah, who swear by the name of the LORD, who invoke the God of Israel— but not in truth or righteousness—
2Khopuei cim lamloh khue uh tih Israel Pathen, caempuei BOEIPA kah a ming dongah hangdang uh.
2who indeed call yourselves after the holy city and lean on the God of Israel; the LORD of Hosts is His name.
3Hnukbuet lamloh ka puen daengrhae coeng tih ka ka lamloh ha thoeng coeng. Te dongah amih te ka yaak sak tih thaeng ka saii vaengah ni a phoe uh pueng.
3I foretold the former things long ago; they came out of My mouth and I proclaimed them. Suddenly I acted, and they came to pass.
4Na mangkhak khaw, na rhawn kah thi tharhui te khaw, na tal kah rhohum te khaw ka ming ta.
4For I knew that you are stubborn; your neck is iron and your forehead is bronze.
5Te dongah ni hlamat lamloh nang taengah ka puen tih, a puek hlanah nang kan yaak sak. Ka tloh a saii tih ka mueithuk neh ka tuisi neh amih a uen na ti lah ve.
5Therefore I declared it to you long ago; I announced it before it came to pass, so that you could not claim, ‘My idol has done this; my carved image and molten god has ordained it.’
6Na yaak tangtae te boeih hmu van lah. Nangmih tah na puen uh mahpawt nim? A kueinah tih na ming pawt te khaw a thai la nang kan yaak sak pawn ni.
6You have heard these things; look at them all. Will you not acknowledge them? From now on I will tell you of new things, hidden things unknown to you.
7Tahae kah a suen uh khaw daengrhae daengkhoi lamkah moenih. A khohnin hlanah na yaak pawt te khaw ka ming coeng tarha na ti ve.
7They are created now, and not long ago; you have not heard of them before today. So you cannot claim, ‘I already knew them!’
8Na yaak noek bal moenih, na ming noek bal moenih. Daengrhae daengkhoi lamkah ni na hna a khui voel pawh. Hnukpoh koi neh na hnukpoh te khaw, bungko khui lamloh boekoek la nang ng'khue te khaw ka ming.
8You have never heard; you have never understood; for a long time your ears have not been open. For I knew how deceitful you are; you have been called a rebel from birth.
9Ka ming ham ni ka thintoek khaw ka hlawt. Te vaengah kamah kah koehnah te nang taeng lamkah loh ka yueh coeng dae nang aka saii ham moenih.
9For the sake of My name I will delay My wrath; for the sake of My praise I will restrain it, so that you will not be cut off.
10Nang te kan cilpoe dae cak banglam pawt tih phacip phabaem kah hmai-ulh nen ni nang kan coelh he.
10See, I have refined you, but not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.
11Kamah ham pai ni, kamah ham pai ni ka saii dae balae tih a poeih uh. Ka thangpomnah khaw a tloe la ka pae mahpawh.
11For My own sake, My very own sake, I will act; for how can I let Myself be defamed? I will not yield My glory to another.
12Jakob neh kamah kah ka khue Israel loh kai taengah he hnatun lah. Kai tah amah la ka om tih lamhma khaw kamah, lamhnuk khaw kamah coeng ni.
12Listen to Me, O Jacob, and Israel, whom I have called: I am He; I am the first, and I am the last.
13Ka kut loh diklai a suen tih ka bantang kut loh vaan a phayai. Amih te ka khue tih tun pai uh.
13Surely My own hand founded the earth, and My right hand spread out the heavens; when I summon them, they stand up together.
14Nangmih te boeih coi uh thae lamtah hnatun uh lah. Amih taengah aka puen pah khaw unim? Te rhoek te BOEIPA amah loh lungnah dongah Babylon te a kutnaep neh Khalden te a bantha neh a saii ni.
14Come together, all of you, and listen: Which of the idols has foretold these things? The LORD’s chosen ally will carry out His desire against Babylon, and His arm will be against the Chaldeans.
15Kai kamah loh ka thui dongah anih te ka khue. Anih te ka khuen vetih a longpuei thaihtak ni.
15I, even I, have spoken; yes, I have called him. I have brought him, and he will succeed in his mission.
16Kamah taengah ha mop lamtah hnatun laeh. He tah a lu lamkah neh a huephael kah moenih. Amah a om tue lamkah ni pahoi ka thui coeng. Tahae ah khaw ka Boeipa Yahovah kah a Mueihla nen ni kai n'tueih.
16Come near to Me and listen to this: From the beginning I have not spoken in secret; from the time it happened, I was there.” And now the Lord GOD has sent me, accompanied by His Spirit.
17Nang aka tlan BOEIPA neh Israel kah a cim loh, “Kai tah nang hoeikhang sak ham aka cang puei tih, longpuei kah na caeh koi dongah nang aka hoihaeng Yahovah na Pathen ni.
17Thus says the LORD your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the LORD your God, who teaches you for your benefit, who directs you in the way you should go.
18Ka olpaek te na hnatung dawk nen mah na ngaimongnah loh tuiva bangla, na duengnah loh tuipuei tuiphu bangla om coeng.
18If only you had paid attention to My commandments, your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like waves of the sea.
19Nang kah tiingan khaw laivin bangla om coeng tih na ko khuikah na cadil rhoek khaw cangtham bangla pat tlaih pawh. A ming khaw kamah mikhmuh lamloh phae tlaih pawh.
19Your descendants would have been as countless as the sand, and your offspring as numerous as its grains; their name would never be cut off or eliminated from My presence.”
20Babylon lamloh coe uh laeh. Khalden lamloh yong uh laeh. Tamlung ol neh puen uh lamtah yaak sak uh laeh. He he diklai khobawt la khuen uh. BOEIPA loh a sal Jakob a tlan coeng,” ti uh.
20Leave Babylon! Flee from the Chaldeans! Declare it with a shout of joy, proclaim it, let it go out to the ends of the earth, saying, “The LORD has redeemed His servant Jacob!”
21Amih te imrhong longah a caeh puei dae a halthi uh moenih. Lungpang khui lamkah tui te amih ham a sih sak tih lungpang a paeng vaengah tui khaw phuet,” a ti.
21They did not thirst when He led them through the deserts; He made water flow for them from the rock; He split the rock, and water gushed out.
22Halang rhoek taengah rhoepnah om mahpawh. BOEIPA loh a thui.
22“There is no peace,” says the LORD, “for the wicked.”
