Isaiah 66

1 Hiche hi Pakaiyin asei chu ahi: Van hi ka Laltouna ahi, chule leiset hi ka kengphang ngapna ahi. Nanghon hou’in phatah nasah jou dingu hinam? Nanghon hitobang kicholdona khat chu neisahpeh dingu ham?

Thus saith the LORD, The heaven [is] my throne, and the earth [is] my footstool: where [is] the house that ye build to me? and where [is] the place of my rest?

2 Ka khutnin van le leiset asem gel ahin, amaho le asunga uho jouse keima’a ahi, tin Pakai keiman ka naseije! Keiman akineosah le lungchang kisihna neithei mi ka thuseija kithing thei mi chu phatthei kaboh ding ahi.

For all these [things] hath my hand made, and all these [things] have been, saith the LORD: but to this man [will] I look, [even] to [him that is] poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.

3 Hinla ama ama deilam bou kilhenna, amaho chonsetna hobou deilhen miho chu, akikatdohnau thilto ho jong santhei hilou ding ahi. Hitobang miho chun bongchal kilhainan tohdoh jonguleh, hiho chu mihem’a kilhaina kitohdoh tobangbep’a kila ding ahibouve. Ama hon kelngoi atoji tenguleh, uicha’a kilhaina tobang bepma kila ding ahi! Amahon lousoh ga ahinto ji tengu jongleh, amahon vohcha’a kilhaina thilto abol’uva kila ding ahi. Amahon bego a kilhaina aneijiu jongleh, limsemthu phatthei aboh ‘u tobanga kigel ding ahi.

He that killeth an ox [is as if] he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, [as if] he cut off a dog's neck; he that offereth an oblation, [as if he offered] swine's blood; he that burneth incense, [as if] he blessed an idol. Yes, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations.

4 Amahon akichatnau jouseuva hahsatna kasolpeh ding ahi. Ajeh iham itileh amahon kakou petnin eidonbut pouvin, chule keiman kaseipetnin angaipouve. Ka mitmutah’a amahon chonset abol’uvin, chule ija kaselou chu bol dingin akilhen johtauve.

I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear: but they did evil before my eyes, and chose [that] in which I delighted not.

5 Hiche thuhi Pakaiya konin ngaijuvin, Athuseija kithing le ging geh’a umho: Namite chun nahot bol’uvin, chule kaminna kitah tah’a napanjeh in nanotthap tauve. Amahon ataitomu’uvin, “Pakai chu jabollin umhen! Ama’a kipah thanomin um'in! tin seijonguleh, amaho chu hung kijumso tei ding ahiuve.

Hear the word of the LORD, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said, Let the LORD be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.

6 Khopi sunga boina ho jouse hi ipi hija ham? Hou’In'a konna ging thethua khu ipi hija ham? Hiche hi Pakai awgin, amelmate ho douna’a athilbol hija ahi!”

A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the LORD that rendereth recompense to his enemies.

7 Naosonat ahung kipat masanga, Jerusalem’in chapa khat ahingtai

Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a male child.

8 Hitobang thil kidang hi koijin anamu khah em? Hitobang hi kon anajah khah em? Nam khat chu nikho khatseh’a hungpeng thei ding ham? Chomkhat kahlouva gamkhat chu hung kitungdoh thei ding ham? Hinla Jerusalem’in naosonat athoh pat teng, achate hungpeng doh ding ahi.

Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? [or] shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.

9 Hiche nam mite hi naosonat thoh dinga kapuidoh’a ahia napa ahinlou ding hija ham? tin Pakaiyin adongin ahi. Na Pathen chun, “Hilouve, Keiman hiche nam mite hi peng louva kaumlou ding ahi.

Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut [the womb]? saith thy God.

10 Jerusalem toh kipah thanomun! Amanu ngailou ho jouse le ama lung hempi jouse, nabonchauvin kipah thanomun.

Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her:

11 Chapang sen anu noitwi’a alungmon bang chun amanu aloupina chamkimna chu bulhingsetnin kipa piuvin.

That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may draw milk, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.

12 Hiche hi Pakaiyin asei ahi: Keiman Jerusalem hi ninglhinna le chamna lui dung kalonsah ding. Chitin-namtin ahenga hunglut dingu, achateu chu noitwija kivah vaset dingu, abantenia apom’a chule aphei chunga atousah ding ahi.

For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon [her] sides, and be dandled upon [her] knees.

13 Minun acha alhamon tobanga keiman nangho hi Jerusalem’a kalhamon ding nahiuve.

As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem.

14 Hiche ho jouse hi namusoh tengleh, nalungsung kipah ding chule hampa banga nakidodoh ding ahi. Mitinin Pakai phattheina khut chu asohte chunga amu thei dingu chule amelmate chunga alunghanna amudiu ahije.

And when ye see [this], your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb: and the hand of the LORD shall be known towards his servants, and [his] indignation towards his enemies.

15 Ven, Pakai chu meikoutoh kilhonin ahungin chule asakol kangtalai chu huipi hung nung gin tobang'in agingdoh jenge. Aman alunghanna’a gimbol dinga hung ding chule aphosalna meikou tobang hiding ahi.

For behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.

16 Pakai chun vannoi hi alunghanna le achem jama agimbol ding ahi. Ama’n leiset chung thu atanna Chula mi tampi chu ahintha ding ahi.

For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the LORD shall be many.

17 Amaho tah kisuthenguva chule honsung lailunga thingphung nung lama lim semthua kisuthenga- thet umtah vohsale juchasa’a chule thil thenglou hoa kivahvaset ho chu hoisetah’a mangthah ding ahiuve.

They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one [tree] in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the LORD.

18 Amahon ipi abol’u kamudoh theijin chule ipi agellu kahedoh theije. Hijeh’a hi keiman nam jouse le mipite kakhop khom’a chule amahon kaloupina amu dingu ahi.

For I [know] their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.

19 Keiman amaho lah’a melchihna khat kavetsah ding ahi. Chule chitin-namtin lah’a thupoa pang ding ho chu - Tarshis’a, Libia miho lah’a, chule Lydia miho (thalkap them tah’ho tobang lah)’a, Tubal ho le Greek mite ho lah’a chule twikhanglen gal lama umho jouse keiman min jakhalou ho, kaloupina mukhaloulaiho henga kasol ding ahiuve.

And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them to the nations, [to] Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, [to] Tubal, and Javan, [to] the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.

20 Amaho chun chitin ho lah’akonna namite amohthem ho chu ahinpui khom dingu ahi. Amaho chun kalhangtheng Jerusalema amaho chu Pakaiya kilhaina dinga ahin puilut dingu ahi. Amaho chun sakol ho chunga, sakol kangtalaiho chunga chule sangan chungle sangong sangho chunga hungtou’uva hung ding ahiuve, tin Pakaiyin aseije.

And they shall bring all your brethren [for] an offering to the LORD out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the LORD, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the LORD.

21 Chule keiman amaho lah’a abangkhat chu thempua le Levi mia kalhendoh ding ahije, tia keima Pakaijin kaseisa ahitai.

And I will also take of them for priests [and] for Levites, saith the LORD.

22 Vanthaho le leithah aumden jing ding tobanga chu, nangho jong chu min amangkit theilou kamite nahi jing dingu ahitai, tin Pakaiyin aseije.

For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.

23 Hapta ahapta seh’a chule lhakhatna kona lhakit geija mihem jouse kahenga keima eihou dia hung hung jeng ding ahiuve.

And it shall come to pass, [that] from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD.

24 Chule amaho chu apotdoh tenguleh hitia hi: Tahsa thisa ho ahin laijuva keima eidou ho chun ahin mu dingu ahi. Ajeh chu amaho vallhuma lungtol ho jong chu thilou hel dingu ahi, chule amaho gou dinga mei jong chu itih’a mit thei talou ding chule lampia hungvah le ho jouse chun kidang asahuva tija ding ahiuve.

And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring to all flesh.
