Isaiah 6
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up, and His train filled the temple.
1Manghai Uzziah a duek kum ah pomsang ngolkhoel dongah Boeipa te ngol tih a pomsang ka hmuh. Te vaengah a hnihmoi loh bawkim te a khuk.
2Above Him stood the seraphim; each one had six wings: with twain he covered his face and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
2Anih te a soah Seraph rhoek loh a pai thil. Seraph te khat ben ah a phae parhuk, khat ben ah a phae parhuk om tih, panit neh a maelhmai a khuk, panit neh a kho a dah tih panit neh ding.
3And one called unto another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory.
3Te phoeiah he lamkah neh tekah te a khue tih, “Caempuei BOEIPA kah a cim, a cim, a cim, a thangpomnah loh diklai pum ah khawk,” a ti.
4And the posts of the door were moved at the voice of them that called, and the house was filled with smoke.
4A khue ol ah cingkhaa te dong khat phoek tih, a im ah hmaikhu baetawt.
5Then said I: Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
5Te vaengah, “Anunae kai aih he, ka hmuilai rhalawt neh hlang lamloh ka hmata. Pilnam hmuilai rhalawt lakli ah ka kho ka sak dae ka mik loh Caempuei manghai BOEIPA a hmuh,” ka ti.
6Then flew unto me one of the seraphim, with a glowing stone in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar;
6Te vaengah Serap taeng lamkah paktat te kai taengla ha ding tih a kut dongkah paitaeh neh hmueihtuk dong lamkah hmaitak a loh.
7and he touched my mouth with it, and said: Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin expiated.
7Te phoeiah ka ka te hang kolh tih, “Na hmuilai te a kolh coeng he ne. Nang kathaesainah te a khoe tih, na tholhnah khaw a dawth coeng,” a ti.
8And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then I said: 'Here am I; send me.'
8Te phoeiah ka Boeipa ol te ka yaak tih, “Ulae ka tueih vetih mamih ham ulae aka cet eh?,” a ti. Te dongah, “Kai kamah he n'tueih,” ka ti nah.
9And He said: 'Go, and tell this people: hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
9Te phoeiah, “Cet lamtah pilnam te thui pah, a yaak tah na yaak uh dae na yakming uh pawh. Na hmuh tah na hmuh uh dae na hmat uh pawh.
10Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they, seeing with their eyes, and hearing with their ears, and understanding with their heart, return, and be healed.'
10Pilnam lungbuei mawt he, a hna bing tih a mik a buem. A mik neh hmuh tih a hna neh ya lah ve. A thinko loh a yakming tih mael koinih amah te hoeih uh sue,” a ti.
11Then said I: 'Lord, how long?' And He answered: 'Until cities be waste without inhabitant, and houses without man, and the land become utterly waste,
11Te dongah, “Aw Boeipa, me hil nim?,” ka ti nah. Te vaengah, “Khopuei rhoek te sop uh tih khosa a om pawt duela, im te hlang om pawt vetih khohmuen khaw khopong la a pong hil.
12And the LORD have removed men far away, and the forsaken places be many in the midst of the land.
12BOEIPA loh hlang te a lakhla sak tih khohmuen laklo kah a hnoo mah yet coeng.
13And if there be yet a tenth in it, it shall again be eaten up; as a terebinth, and as an oak, whose stock remaineth, when they cast their leaves, so the holy seed shall be the stock thereof.'
13A khuiah hlop rha hlop at om bal cakhaw a balang thil vetih rhokael bangla, thingnu thingbung dongah a alh bangla om ni. A ngo te a ngo cim kah tiingan la om ni,” a ti.
