< Isaiah 55 >

1 “Hey! Come, everyone who thirsts, to the waters! Come, he who has no money, buy, and eat! Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
Anunae tui aka hal boeih loh tui taengla cet lah. A taengah tangka aka om pawt long khaw paan lah. Lai lamtah ca van. Cet lamtah misur neh suktui te tangka nen pawt akhaw a phu nen pawt akhaw lai lah.
2 Why do you spend money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Listen diligently to me, and eat that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in richness.
Buh pawt mai ah tangka na thuek thil te ba ham nim? Na thaphu khaw na daeng a cungnah hae moenih. Kamah taengkah he hnatun, hnatun lamtah a then te ca uh. Na hinglu kah maehhloi nen khaw a pang a dok bitni.
3 Turn your ear, and come to me. Hear, and your soul will live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
Na hna duen lamtah kai taengah pongpa lah. Ya van lamtah na hinglu te hing van saeh. David kah sitlohnah aka tangnah nangmih rhoek taengah kumhal paipi ka saii ni.
4 Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander to the peoples.
Anih te namtu kah laipai rhaengsang neh namtu rhoek aka uen la ka khueh coeng he.
5 Behold, you shall call a nation that you do not know; and a nation that did not know you shall run to you, because of the LORD your God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he has glorified you.”
Namtom na ming pawt loh ng'khue vetih namtom na ming pawt khaw nang taengla ha yong uh pawn ni ke. BOEIPA na Pathen neh Israel kah a cim loh nang n'cam coeng.
6 Seek the LORD while he may be found. Call on him while he is near.
Amah hmuh ham koi vaengah BOEIPA toem uh. A yoei la a om vaengah amah te khue uh.
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts. Let him return to the LORD, and he will have mercy on him, to our God, for he will freely pardon.
Halang loh amah khosing, boethae hlang loh a kopoek te hnoo saeh lamtah BOEIPA taengla mael saeh. Mamih kah Pathen taengah tah khodawkngai ham a puh sak vetih, anih te a haidam bitni.
8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not my ways,” says the LORD.
Ka kopoek he nangmih kopoek moenih, na khosing te ka khosing moenih. BOEIPA olphong ni.
9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Vaan ke diklai lakah sang tih ka khosing khaw na khosing lakah sang tangloeng. Ka kopoek khaw nangmih kopoek lakah dung.
10 For as the rain comes down and the snow from the sky, and does not return there, but waters the earth, and makes it grow and bud, and gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater;
Vaan lamkah khonal neh vuelsong a suntlak phoeiah pahoi a mael moenih. Diklai te a sulpuem sak tih a cun phoeiah sul a duei sak. Te dongah lo aka tawn ham cangti neh caak ham buh a paek.
11 so is my word that goes out of my mouth: it will not return to me void, but it will accomplish that which I please, and it will prosper in the thing I sent it to do.
Ka ol aka om tangtae ka ka lamkah aka thoeng he kai taengah kuttling la ha mael mahpawh. Ka ngaih te a saii vetih ka tueih a thaihtak sak ni.
12 For you shall go out with joy, and be led out with peace. The mountains and the hills will break out before you into singing; and all the trees of the fields will clap their hands.
Kohoenah neh na hlah uh vetih ngaimongnah neh n'khuen bitni. Tlang neh som te na mikhmuh ah tamlung neh rhong uh ni. Khohmuen kah thing boeih khaw kut a paeng uh ni.
13 Instead of the thorn the cypress tree will come up; and instead of the brier the myrtle tree will come up. It will make a name for the LORD, for an everlasting sign that will not be cut off.”
Tangtii yueng la hmaical khawk ding vetih sakoeih hling yueng la cuihal thing khawk ding ni. BOEIPA ham kumhal miknoek la a ming om vetih phae voel mahpawh.
