Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1Keep silence before me, O islands; and let the people renew their strength: let them come near; then let them speak: let us come near together to judgment.
1Aw nangcae tuipui mah takui ih prae kaminawk, ka hmaa ah anghngai o duem ah! Kaminawk loe tha pathok o let nasoe; anghnai o nasoe loe, lok to thui o nasoe; lokcaekhaih ahmuen ah nawnto amkhueng o si.
2Who raised up the righteous man from the east, called him to his foot, gave the nations before him, and made him rule over kings? he gave them as the dust to his sword, and as driven stubble to his bow.
2Ni angzae bang ih ukkung omsak kami loe mi aa? Mi mah maw anih khaeah acaengnawk hoi siangphrangnawk uk hanah paek? Misanawk loe anih ih sumsen hmaa ah maiphu baktih, anih ih kalii hmaa ah tavai baktiah anghaehsak phaeng loe mi aa?
3He pursued them, and passed safely; even by the way that he had not gone with his feet.
3Anih loe misanawk to patom moe, a khok hoi cawh vai ai ih loklam ah raihaih om ai ah caeh thaih poe.
4Who hath wrought and done it , calling the generations from the beginning? I the LORD , the first, and with the last; I am he.
4Tangsuek hoi to baktih hmuen sah kami, acaengnawk maeto pacoeng maeto kawk kami loe mi aa? Nihcae khaeah hmaloe koek hoi hnukkhuem koekah kaom, Anih loe, Angraeng, Kai hae boeh ni.
5The isles saw it , and feared; the ends of the earth were afraid, drew near, and came.
5Tui mah takui ih prae kaminawk mah hnuk o naah, zit o; long boenghaih ahmuen ah khosah kaminawk loe tasoeh takuenhaih hoiah anghnaih o moe, hmabang ah angzoh o.
6They helped every one his neighbour; and every one said to his brother, Be of good courage.
6Krang bok kaminawk loe angmacae imtaeng kami to abomh o moe, nihcae khaeah, mawn o hmah, tiah a thuih pae o.
7So the carpenter encouraged the goldsmith, and he that smootheth with the hammer him that smote the anvil, saying, It is ready for the sodering: and he fastened it with nails, that it should not be moved.
7Thing tok sah kop kami mah sui sah kop kami to thapaek, cakii daeng thaih kami mah sumdaeng kami to pahruek moe, sumtui pakaw kami khaeah, sum patomh han hoih boeh, tiah a naa; a sak o ih krang anghuenh han ai ah sum hoiah takhing o caeng.
8But thou, Israel, art my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend.
8Toe nang, Israel loe, ka tamna ah ni na oh, Jakob to ka qoih, Abraham ih caa loe kai ih ampui ah ni oh.
9Thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called thee from the chief men thereof, and said unto thee, Thou art my servant; I have chosen thee, and not cast thee away.
9Long boenghaih ahmuen hoiah nang to kang lak han, kangthla koek ahmuen hoiah kang hoih moe, Nang loe ka tamna ah na oh, kang qoih boeh pongah kang vaa sut mak ai, tiah kang naa.
10¶ Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
10To pongah zii o hmah, nangcae hoi nawnto ka oh; mawn o hmah; kai loe na Sithaw ah ka oh; tha kang caksak han; ue, kang bomh han; ue, katoeng ka bantang ban hoiah kang patawnh han.
11Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.
11Khenah, nangcae palungphui thuih kaminawk loe azathaih tawn o tih; nihcae loe tidoeh angcoeng o mak ai, anghmaa angtaa o boih tih.
12Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought.
12Misanawk to na pakrong o tih, toe na hnu o mak ai; nangcae tuh kami, misa ah kaom kaminawk loe tidoeh na ai ni, tiah doeh angcoeng o mak ai.
13For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.
13Kai loe nangcae ih Angraeng Sithaw ah ka oh baktih toengah, nangcae ih bantang ban ka patawnh moe, nangcae khaeah, Zii o hmah; kang bomh o han hmang.
14Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith the LORD , and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.
14Aw sadong Jakob, Israel kaminawk, zii o hmah; kang bomh o han hmang, tiah nangcae akrangkung, Ciimcai Israel Sithaw mah thuih boeh.
15Behold, I will make thee a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth: thou shalt thresh the mountains, and beat them small, and shalt make the hills as chaff.
15Khenah, nang hae ahaa kaom cang atithaih ah kang sak han; maesomnawk to maiphu baktiah na ohsak hanah, maenawk to na tii ueloe, na naep tih.
16Thou shalt fan them, and the wind shall carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them: and thou shalt rejoice in the LORD , and shalt glory in the Holy One of Israel.
16Nihcae loe takhi mah hmut boih tih, takhi kamhae mah anghaehsak phaeng tih, nang loe Angraeng ah nang hoe ueloe, Ciimcai Israel Sithaw to na pakoeh tih.
17When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the LORD will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them.
17Amtang kaminawk hoi kavawt kaminawk mah tui to pakrong o, toe tui om ai pongah, tui anghaeh loiah palai to zaek pae o; toe Kai, Angraeng mah nihcae ih lok to ka tahngaih pae, Kai, Ciimcai Israel Sithaw mah nihcae to pahnawt sut mak ai.
18I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.
18Maesang ah tui ka longsak moe, azawn ah tui ka pueksak han; praezaek to tuibap ah kang coengsak moe, long karoem ahmuen ah tui ka pueksak han.
19I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the shittah tree, and the myrtle, and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the fir tree, and the pine, and the box tree together:
19Praezaek ah Sidar thing, Akasia thing, hmuihoih aqam kahing thing hoi olive thingnawk to ka thling han; praezaek ah hmaica thing, saiprass thing hoi aqam kahing pine thingnawk to nawnto ka thling han;
20That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it.
20to hmuen to nihcae mah hnu o tih, to naah Angraeng, Ciimcai Israel Sithaw mah ni sak, tiah nihcae mah panoek o tih.
21Produce your cause, saith the LORD ; bring forth your strong reasons , saith the King of Jacob.
21Angraeng mah, acaeng kalah kaminawk ih sithawnawk khaeah, Nangcae lok angaekhaih kawng to na patuek oh, tang han koi kaom hmuen to na sin oh, tiah Jakob ih Siangpahrang mah thuih.
22Let them bring them forth, and shew us what shall happen: let them shew the former things, what they be , that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come.
22Nangcae sak cop ih krangnawk, ka taengah anghnai oh loe, hmabang kaom han koi hmuen to na patuek ah; hmaloe ah kaom hmuennawk loe kawbangmaw oh o, tiah ka poek o moe, to hmuennawk boenghaih to ka panoek o thai hanah, na thui oh; to tih ai boeh loe angzo han koi hmuen to kaicae han thui ah.
23Shew the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods: yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together.
23Hmabang kaom han koi hmuennawk to na thui o noek ah, to tiah ni nangcae loe sithawnawk ah na oh o tangtang, tiah ka panoek o thai tih; ue, kaicae dawnrai moe, ka hnuk o hanah, kahoih hmuen maw, to tih ai boeh loe kasae hmuen maw sah o noek ah.
24Behold, ye are of nothing, and your work of nought: an abomination is he that chooseth you.
24Khenah, nangcae loe tidoeh na ai ni, na toksakhaih doeh azom pui ni; nangcae qoi kami loe panuet thoh.
25I have raised up one from the north, and he shall come: from the rising of the sun shall he call upon my name: and he shall come upon princes as upon morter, and as the potter treadeth clay.
25Aluek bang hoiah kami maeto ka pathawk han, anih to angzo tih; anih loe ni angzae bang hoiah angzo ueloe, anih mah ka hmin to kawk tih; laom sahkung mah amlai long to cawh baktih toengah, ukkungnawk to cawh tih.
26Who hath declared from the beginning, that we may know? and beforetime, that we may say, He is righteous? yea, there is none that sheweth, yea, there is none that declareth, yea, there is none that heareth your words.
26Kaicae mah panoek thai hanah tangsuek na hoiah mi mah maw hae hmuen kawng hae thuih? Anih loe toeng, tiah ka thuih o thai hanah, mi mah maw canghnii hoiah thui coek? Ue, panoeksak kami mi doeh om ai; ue, mi mah doeh thui ai, ue, nangcae khae ih lok to mi mah doeh thaih o ai.
27The first shall say to Zion, Behold, behold them: and I will give to Jerusalem one that bringeth good tidings.
27Zion ah thui tangsuek loe Kai ni, Khenah, nihcae to khenah! Kahoih tamthanglok sinkung to Jerusalem ah ka patoeh han.
28For I beheld, and there was no man; even among them, and there was no counsellor, that, when I asked of them, could answer a word.
28Ka khet, toe mi doeh om ai; nihcae thungah lokthui kami mi doeh om o ai; nihcae to lok ka dueng naah, pathim thaih kami maeto doeh om o ai.
29Behold, they are all vanity; their works are nothing: their molten images are wind and confusion.
29Khenah, nihcae loe azom pui ni; nihcae toksakhaih doeh amsawn ni; a sak o ih krangnawk loe atho om ai, takhi baktiah ni oh o.
