King James Version with Apocrypha
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, which swear by the name of the LORD , and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.
1Aw Jakob imthung takoh, Israel ahmin hoiah kawk ih kami, Judah tuipuek hoiah tacawt kami, Angraeng ih ahmin hoi lokkamhaih to a sak o, toe toenghaih hoi loktang hoiah Israel Sithaw ih ahmin palawk ai kaminawk,
2For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name.
2nihcae loe angmacae hoi angmacae to ciimcai vangpui ih kami, tiah poek o moe, misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, tiah ahmin kaom Israel Sithaw nuiah amha kaminawk, tahngai oh,
3I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass.
3hmaloe ah kaom hmuennawk to tangsuek na hoiah kang thuih o boeh; to hmuennawk loe ka pakha thung hoiah tacawt moe, nihcae han ka hnuksak boeh; ka thuih ih lok baktiah to hmuennawk to ka ohsak.
4Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;
4Palung na thah o haih to ka panoek, nangcae ih tahnong thaquinawk loe sum ah oh moe, na lupataehnawk doeh sumkamling ah oh;
5I have even from the beginning declared it to thee; before it came to pass I shewed it thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.
5to pongah hae hmuennawk hae canghnii hoiah ni kang thuih o boeh; ka bok ih krangnawk mah ni hae hmuennawk hae sak; thing hoiah sak ih krangnawk, ka sak ih krangnawk mah ni, hae hmuennawk hae caksak, tiah na thuih o han ai ah to hmuennawk om ai nathuem hoi boeh ni nangcae khaeah kang thuih o.
6Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it ? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.
6Hae hmuen hae na thaih o moe, na hnuk o boeh; to hmuennawk to na thui o mak ai maw? Vaihi hoi kamtong kanghawk hmuen, kangtha hmuennawk hoi na panoek o ai ih hmuennawk to nangcae hanah kang panoek o sak boeh.
7They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
7To baktih hmuennawk loe vaihiah sak boeh, canghnii hoiah sak ih hmuen na ai ni; vaihni ni khoek to nangcae mah na thaih o kop ai vop; to tih ai nahaeloe khenah, to hmuennawk loe ka panoek o boeh, tiah na thui o moeng tih.
8Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time that thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb.
8Ue, canghnii ah loe na naa to akhaw ai, to pongah na thaih vai ai, panoek doeh na panoek vai ai; nang loe alinghaih hoiah kho na sah ueloe, tapen tangsuek nathuem hoi lokaek thaih kami, tiah kawk tih, tito ka panoek boeh.
9¶ For my name’s sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.
9Nang hae takhoe ving han ai ah, kaimah ih ahmin hoiah palungphuihaih to ka dipsak moe, kaimah hae pakoeh ah oh thai hanah, nang kawng pongah kang sumh han.
10Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
10Khenah, ciim thai hanah kang zoek boeh, sumkanglung zoek ih baktih na ai, patangkhanghaih hmaipalai hoiah nang to kang tanoek.
11For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.
11Kaimah hanah, kaimah han roe ah ka sak han vop; kawbangmaw kai ih ahmin kasae thuihaih to om tih? Ka lensawkhaih to minawk khaeah ka paek mak ai.
12¶ Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last.
12Aw Jakob, ka kawk ih Israel, ka lok hae tahngai ah; Kai loe anih to boeh ni; Kai loe hmaloe koek hoi hnukkhuem koekah ka oh.
13Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.
13Long loe kaimah ni ban hoiah ka sak, ka bantang ban hoiah van to ka payuengh; to hmuennawk to ka kawk naah nawnto angdoet o.
14All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these things ? The LORD hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans.
14Nangcae boih, maeto ah angzo oh loe tahngai oh; canghnii hoiah hae hmuen kawng thui kami nangcae khaeah oh maw? Angraeng koehhaih baktiah Babylon nuiah sah tih, a ban doeh Khaldian kaminawk nuiah krahsak tih.
15I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.
15Kai, kaimah khaeh mah lok ka thuih boeh; ue, anih to ka kawk boeh; anih to kang hoih boeh, a caehhaih loklam to anih mah hmacawnsak tih.
16¶ Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD , and his Spirit, hath sent me.
16Kai khaeah anghnai oh loe, hae lok hae tahngai oh; tangsuek na hoi tamquta ah lok kang thui o vai ai; kai loe to hmuen oh tangsuek nathuem hoi boeh ni ka oh; vaihi Angraeng Sithaw hoi angmah ih Muithla mah kai hae ang patoeh.
17Thus saith the LORD , thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.
17Nangcae akrangkung, Angraeng, Ciimcai Israel Sithaw mah hae tiah thuih; anih loe na caeh han ih loklam ah zaehoikung Sithaw ah oh moe, atho hnuk hanah anih mah ang patuk.
18O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea:
18Ka thuih ih lok hae mah tahngai oh, to tih nahaeloe na monghaih loe vapui baktiah om ueloe, na toenghaih loe tuipui thung ih tuiphu baktiah om tih.
19Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me.
19Nang ih acaengnawk loe savuet baktiah om o ueloe, na caanawk doeh kroeklaek ai thlung caret baktiah om o tih; anih ih ahmin loe anghmaa mak ai, ka hmaa hoiah doeh phrae mak ai.
20¶ Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say ye, The LORD hath redeemed his servant Jacob.
20Babylon vangpui thung hoiah tacawt oh; anghoe laasakhaih hoiah Khaldian prae to cawn o taak ah; long boenghaih khoek to hae tamthang hae taphong oh; Angraeng mah angmah ih tamna Jakob to akrang boeh, tiah thui oh.
21And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out.
21Anngraeng mah praezaek ahmuen hoiah nihcae zaehhoih naah tui anghae o ai; nihcae han lungsong thung hoiah tui to tacawtsak; anih mah tui tacawt hanah lungsong to pakhoih.
22There is no peace, saith the LORD , unto the wicked.
22Kasae kaminawk hanah monghaih om ai, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
