Isaiah 1
1 The vision of Isaias the son of Amos I which he saw concerning Juda and Jerusalem in the days of Ozias, Joathan, Achaz, and Ezechias, kings of Juda.
Amoz chapa Isaiah-in Juda lengho Uziah, Jotham, Ahaz leh Hezekiah phat laiya Judah le Jerusalem chungchang gaova thil amuho:
2 Hear, O ye heavens, and give ear, O earth, for the Lord hath spoken. I have brought up children, and exalted them: but they have despised me.
Vanho ngaiyun! leisetnin phaten ngaiyun! Pakaiyin asei chu hiche hi ahi: “Kahin vahkhang leh kahin seiletsah chaten kachungah nachonseuvin neidou tauve.
3 The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: but Israel hath not known me, and my people hath not understood.
Bongchal jengin jong apupa akihetnin, chule Sanganin jong apu’n apehna kong akihetnin, ahinlah kamiten vang amaho kahin vahkhang dan ahephapouvin, Israelin apupa akihettapoi.
4 Woe to the sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a wicked seed, ungracious children: they have forsaken the Lord, they have blasphemed the Holy One of Israel, they are gone away backwards.
Ohe themmona dimsette chonse nam mite, gitlouna thilbol chilhahho; themmona dimset mite, hiche mite hin a-Pakaiyu adalhatauvin, Israel Mithengpa chu donselouvin akoiyun ajamsan tauve.
5 For what shall I strike you any more, you that increase transgression? the whole head is sick, and the whole heart is sad.
Ipi dinga gimbolna ding nakikou bebeu hitam? Itih chan gei neidou nahlai diu ham? naluchang apumin anatan, nalungchang jong ana’n ahi.
6 From the sole of the foot unto the top of the head, there is no soundness therein: wounds and bruises and swelling sores: they are not bound up, nor dressed, nor fomented with oil.
Nakengtoa pat nalujang chan adam lai mong mong aumtapon, akita-dupna jeng, apat lai jeng chule athi lonna maha jeng ahi’n, anaikolin, tom jong akitompon, thao jong akinupoi.
7 Your land is desolate, your cities are burnt with fire: your country strangers devour before your face, and it shall be desolate as when wasted by enemies.
Nagamsungu jong ahomkeovin alumtan, nakhopiu jong akavamtai. Namitmu tah'un gamdang miten nagam’u alosohtan, thil jouse amitmuva amu jouseu asusetauve.
8 And the daughter of Sion shall be left as a covert in a vineyard, and as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, and as a city that is laid waste.
Jerusalem khopi hoitah chu lengpi leiya buh kisong tobang leh changmai leiya buh kisong bangin, akidalhan avengbit ding umlou khopi abangtai.
9 Except the Lord of hosts had left us seed, we had been as Sodom, and we should have been like to Gomorrha.
Pakai van-khopi sepaihon eiho themkhat jeng jong eivenbitlouvu hileh Sodom le Gomorrah tobanga thehngima ium diu ahi.
10 Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom, give ear to the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrha.
Sodom khoa vaihom lamkaihon Pakai thusei ngaiyun lang, Gomorrah miten Pathen dan thupeh ngaiyun.
11 To what purpose do you offer me the multitude of your victims, saith the Lord? I am full, I desire not holocausts of rams, and fat of fatlings, and blood of calves, and lambs, and buck goats.
Pakaiyin aseiye: “Nakilhainau jouseu hi ka-ipi phatchomna umdinga nagelluham? Keiman kelngoichal pumgo thilto le gancha kivah thaotahtah jong kaneiye. Keiman bongchal tampi thisan leh kelngoi thisan chule kelcha thisan hijongleh kakipapipoi.
12 When you came to appear before me, who required these things at your hands, that you should walk in my courts?
Keima eihou dinga nahung tenguleh koiham nakithoinau puma ka-inpi chonthang dinga nakouvu?
13 Offer sacrifice no more in vain: incense is an abomination to me. The new moons, and the sabbaths, and other festivals I will not abide, your assemblies are wicked.
Pannabei thiltoho chu hinpolut tahih-un, nagimnamtuiyu jong keima dinga thet-umtah ahi! Lhathah nikho, Sabbath nikho chuleh achombeha na-anngol nikho manhou chonset bulom leh adihlou ahi. Nakikhopkhomnau jong kadeitapoi.
14 My soul hateth your new moons, and your solemnities: they are become troublesome to me, I am weary of bearing them.
Nalhathah kut bolhou, kumlhun golnop nabolhou jong keidinga pohgih bep ahin, abonchan kapochimtan, kakidah ahitai!
15 And when you stretch forth your hands, I will turn away my eyes from you: and when you multiply prayer, I will not hear: for your hands are full of blood.
Vanlam sanga nakhut-u natundohuva natao tengu jongleh kahungvetnuva nataonau kangailhahpehlou ding ahi. Ajeh chu khohelouho thisan nakhutnuvah adimsetne.
16 Wash yourselves, be clean, take away the evil of your devices from my eyes: cease to do perversely,
Nangho kisilngimuvin lang chule kisuthengun! Nachonset nau chu kamitmun paimangun, nachonset nau lampi chu dalhauvin,
17 Learn to do well: seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge for the fatherless, defend the widow.
Thilphabol dan kithemchuh-un, thudih chu holun. Bolgentheina thoh ho chu panpiuvin, naochagaho chu thu adih-in tanpeh-uvin lang, vengphauvin. Meithaiho chu thildih jeng seipeh-un.”
18 And then come, and accuse me, saith the Lord: if your sins be as scarlet, they shall be made as white as snow: and if they be red as crimson, they shall be white as wool.
Pakaiyin hiti hin aseiye, “Hungun kihoutoh-u hite. Nachonset nau chu thisan bangin san jongleh buhbang banga kabansah ding, sandup jeju jongleh kelngoi mul jolsel tobanga kajolsah ding ahi.
19 If you be willing, and will hearken to me, you shall eat the good things of the land.
Kathupeh nanit-uleh nanghon nehlechah ninglhingset’na nanei diu ahi.
20 But if you will not, and will provoke me to wrath: the sword shall devour you because the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
Ahinlah kathupeh nanitlou-uva nakiheimangsanule namelmateu chemjama lousoh helding nahiuve, tia na-Pakaiyu keiman kaseipeh nahitauve!”
21 How is the faithful city, that was full of judgment, become a harlot? justice dwelt in it, but now murderers.
I-atileh Jerusalem khopi kitahtah chu notia pang jenga hitam? Thu adih-a kitanna khopia chun tuhin tolthana jengin aumtai.
22 Thy silver is turned into dress: thy wine is mingled with water.
Nadangka thih chu twieh asohgamtan, nalengpi twi chihtah chu twi toh akichohhal gamtai.
23 Thy princes are faithless, companions of thieves: they all love bribes, the run after rewards. They judge not for the fatherless: and the widow’s cometh not in to them.
Namilen milalteu jong doumahmah bolin apangun, gucha michomho jol le golin apang tauve. Nehguh chahguh adelleleuvin, nulou palouho thule meithaiho thujong adih-in atanpeh nom tapouve.
24 Therefore saith the Lord the God of hosts, the mighty one of Israel: Ah! I will comfort myself over my adversaries: and I will be revenged of my enemies.
Hijehchun Pakai, vantil galsatte Pakai Hatchungnung, Israel Pakai chun aseiye, “Keiman kamelmate chunga phuba kalah ding ahi.
25 And I will turn my hand to thee, and I will clean purge away thy dress, and I will take away all thy tin.
Nachunga kakhut kalha ding, nathih-eh thengsella kathehngima nasum kilhajol chengse kaloikhensohkei ding ahi.
26 And I will restore thy judges as they were before, and thy counsellors as of old. After this thou shalt be called the city of the just, a faithful city.
Chutengleh thutan vaihomthemho masang banga kahinpeh kit ding, Jerusalem khopi chu Thudih-a Kivaihomna Khopi chule Khopi Kitah tia kisei kit ding ahitai,” ati.
27 Sion shall be redeemed in judgment, and they shall bring her back in justice.
Zion chu thudih-a akitan teng kiledoh kit ding chule akisihho chu chonphatnaa kiledoh kit diu ahitai.
28 And he shall destroy the wicked, and the sinners together: and they that have forsaken the Lord, shall be consumed.
Michonseho vang suhmanga umding ahiuve, ijeh-inem itileh amaho Pakai hengah akile nompouve.
29 For they shall be confounded for the idols, to which they have sacrificed: and you shall be ashamed of the gardens which you have chosen.
Namilim hounau leh aguh-a gangpithing noi laha nachonnau leh milim houna'a nakipehdohnau jeh'a jumleja nathoh diu ahi.
30 When you shall be as an oak with the leaves falling off, and as a garden without water.
Anagopsa gangpi phung nabah diu, chule twilutlouna honlei toh nabah diu ahi.
31 And your strength shall be as the ashes of tow, and your work as a spark: and both shall burn together, and there shall be none to quench it.
Nalahuva ahatpenpa jong chu changpol tobanga mangthah ding; athilbol dihlouhou chu meisipah mei chohkaiya pang ding, amaho le athildihlou bolhou chu meikong lah-a kachaiyintin, chuleh meikong chu aphelmit thei ding koima umponte.
