Isaiah 61
1 Pakai thaneipen Lhagao chu kachunga aume, ajeh iham itileh Pakaiyin Kipana Thupha avaichate henga polut dingin thao einutai. Ama hin along chang naho lhamon dinga chule sohchang ho lhadohna seiphong peh dingin chule songkullut ho chamlhat sahna dinga eisol ahi.
The Spirit of the Lord GOD is on Me, because the LORD has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent Me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and freedom to the prisoners,
2 Aman lung hemna neiho dinga Pakai mikhotona chu ahung lhung taiti seija, chule Pathen lunghanna nikho chu, amelma teu douna dingin ahunge ti seipeh dinga eisol ahi.
to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of our God’s vengeance, to comfort all who mourn,
3 Israel sunga alunghem jouse dinga- Aman vutvai‘a konna lallukhuh hoitah, lunghemna khella phattheiboh kipana, lunglhahna khella vahchoina golnop hung hijo ding ahitai. Achonphat nauva amaho chu khongnang phung lentah ho tobanga Pakaiyin Aloupina dinga anaphudoh ahitai.
to console the mourners in Zion— to give them a crown of beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, and a garment of praise for a spirit of despair. So they will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.
4 Khopi ana mah thah saho chu asah phat kit dingu, masang peh’a ana kisumang khopiho chu kibolphakit ding, khang tampi donlou hella anaum ho jong chu avella kiledoh kit ding ahiuve.
They will rebuild the ancient ruins; they will restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities, the desolations of many generations.
5 Gamchom miho chu nasoh’uva hung pang dingu ahitai. Amahon na gancha hou avah dingu, nalou hou akhoi bot dingu, chule na lengpi lei’u jong nahon peh dingu ahije.
Strangers will stand and feed your flocks, and foreigners will be your plowmen and vinedressers.
6 Nangho chu Pakai thempu nahi dingu, I Pathen’u lhachaho kiti ding nahitauve. Nangho chitin-namtin neile gou hoa kivah ding nahiuvin, chule ahaonau chu na kithangatpi ding ahitai.
But you will be called the priests of the LORD; they will speak of you as ministers of our God; you will feed on the wealth of nations, and you will boast in their riches.
7 Jachatna le noisana sanga nang hon achan nia jabolna na kimu dingu ahi. Nanghon nagam sunguva ning lhinna achan nia nanei dingu, chule tonsot kipana chu nanghoa hiding ahitai.
Instead of shame, My people will have a double portion, and instead of humiliation, they will rejoice in their share; and so they will inherit a double portion in their land, and everlasting joy will be theirs.
8 Ajeh iham itileh Keima, Pakaiyin thu adih’a tan ka ngailui. Keiman gou kichompeh le thil dihlou kibol kathet ahi. Keiman ka mite chu athohgim jaluva lolhingtah’a lethuhna kapeh ding chule amaho toh tonsot kitepna kasem ding ahi.
For I, the LORD, love justice; I hate robbery and iniquity; in My faithfulness I will give them their recompense and make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 Achilhah teu hettheija hung um dingu chule namtin lah’a jabolna chang ding ahiuve. Mitinin amaho Pakaiyin a phattheiboh mite ahiuve ti ageldoh dingu ahi.
Their descendants will be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples. All who see them will acknowledge that they are a people the LORD has blessed.
10 Keima Pakai ka Pathen’a hapia kipanan eidip dime! Ajeh iham itileh Ama’n Huhhingna pon chu eisilpeh in, chule chonphatna’a pon ah chu ei’ah pehtai. Keima kichenna’a mou neipa (moulang) kivonpa tobang'in, ahilou leh mounu song mantama kijem tobang chu kahi.
I will rejoice greatly in the LORD, my soul will exult in my God; for He has clothed me with garments of salvation and wrapped me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom wears a priestly headdress, as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11 Pakai thunei chungnungpa chun vannoi nam mite henga athutan dih je avetsah ding ahi. Mitinin Ama avahchoi dingu ahi! Achonphatna chu chavang kipattil tobang ding, muntina thingphung ho hung kehdoh tobang hi ding ahije.
For as the earth brings forth its growth, and as a garden enables seed to spring up, so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring up before all the nations.
