Isaiah 56
1 Hiche hi Pakaiyin asei: Abonchakeija dinga adih le avet hoi hihen. Keima na huhdoh diuna kahung vahding ahijeh'in, adih le apha chu bol’uvin chutileh nalah’uva kachonphatna kavetsah ding nahiuve.
This is what Yahweh says, “Observe what is right, do what is just; for my salvation is near, and my righteousness is about to be revealed.
2 Hiche hi chingthei tah’abolho chu abonchauva nunnom hidingu ahi. Ka Sabbath nikho jabolla kicholdoa chule aphalou bolna’a konna kiveng bit jouse nunnom kiti ding ahiuve.
Blessed is the man that does this, and who holds it tightly. He observes the Sabbath, not defiling it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil.”
3 Pakaiya kipedohsa gamdang miho chun:” Pakaiyin keima Amite lah’a chan eineisah hih intin, chule nukiso ho jong chun, keima thing go le chaneilou chule khonung ding kinepna bei kahi ti dau hen.
Let no foreigner who has become a follower of Yahweh say, “Yahweh will certainly exclude me from his people.” The eunuch should not say, “See, I am a dry tree.”
4 Ajeh iham itileh hiche hi Pakai thusei ahi: Keiman nukiso ho ka-Sabbath athenga nit ho chule kalunglhaina kilhen ho chujongleh ahinkhou kahenga pedoh ho chu phatthei kaboh ding ahi.
For this is what Yahweh says, “To the eunuchs who observe my Sabbaths and choose what pleases me, and hold fast my covenant,
5 Keiman ka’in bang chunga melchihna le min neina kapeh ding hi- chapate le Chanute hon apeh jou sanga gamchenga lenjo ding ahi. Ajeh chu keiman amaho kapeh ding min hi mangthei talou ding, a’itih’a umjing ding ahitai.
to them I will set up in my house and within my walls a monument that is better than having sons and of daughters. I will give them an everlasting monument that will never be cut off.
6 Pakaiya gamdang mi hung kipelut ho, Ama kinna kisalella chule Amin ngailuho, Ama houva chule kacholdoni (Sabbath) suboh louho chule kakitepna kolchah jing ho jong chu Keiman phatthei kaboh ding ahi.
Also foreigners who join themselves to Yahweh— to serve him, and who love the name of Yahweh, to worship him, every one who observes the Sabbath and who keeps from defiling it, and who holds fast my covenant
7 Keiman amaho chu ka lhang theng Jerusalem’a kahinpui ding chule taona in chu kipah pum’a kapuilut dingu ahi. Keiman akilhainau le apumgo thiltou chu kasanpeh ding ahitai, ajeh chu ka hou’in chu chitin-namtin jouse dinga taona’in kiti ding ahitai.
—I will bring to my holy mountain and make them joyful in my house of prayer; their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted on my altar. For my house will be called a house of prayer for all nations,
8 Ajeh iham itileh Achungnungpen Pakai Israel akipaidoh ho hinlepui kitpa chun aseije, ‘Keiman Kamite Israel bou hilouva, adangho jong kahin puilut ding ahi,’ ati.
this is the declaration of the Lord Yahweh, who gathers the outcasts of Israel— I will still gather others in addition to them.”
9 Loujaova gamsaho hungun! Gam manga gamsaho hung jao’uvin! Hungun lang kamite hi hungval lhum’un.
All you wild beasts of the field, come and devour, all you beasts in the forest!
10 Ajeh iham itileh Kamite lamkaija pangho, Pakai khongah ho, chule Akel ngoi chingho- amit’u achon chule kho amupouve. Amaho hi uicha in ngah thip beh’a umho, hahsatna hunglhung ding gihsalna pelou ahiuve. Amaho hin gah luma, ihmua, sun laiya mangnei ding angaichauve.
All their watchmen are blind, they do not understand. They are all silent dogs who cannot bark. They dream, and lying down they love to sleep.
11 Uicha kiloseho tobangbep’in lungna kimna anei go hih uve. Amaho hi kho phulou kelngoiching ho, amaho gel gella khosauva, amaho chang phatchomna ding bou agel’u ahi.
The dogs have big appetites; they can never get enough; they are shepherds without discernment; they have all turned to their own way, each one covetous for unjust gain.
12 Amahon,’ Hungun, Ju themkhat tep’u hitin chule party bol’u hite,’ tin aseijui. Ibonchauvin donkham set’u hitin, ajingle party alenjo cheh in bolkit’uhite, atiuve.
“Come,” they say, “let us drink wine and liquor. Tomorrow will be like today, a day great beyond measure.”
