Isaiah 11

1 [Like] [MET] a [new] shoot [often] grows from the stump [of a tree], there will be a descendant of King David who will be a new king.

Jesse kah a ngo dong lamkah a pa te duei vetih a yung lamkah a pae te pungtai ni.

2 The Spirit of Yahweh will always be with him. The Spirit will enable him to be wise and to understand [much about many things]. The Spirit will enable him to decide what is good to do, and will enable him to be very powerful. The Spirit will enable him to know Yahweh and to revere him.

BOEIPA kah Mueihla, cueihnah neh yakmingnah mueihla, cilsuep neh thayung thamal mueihla, mingnah neh BOEIPA hinyahnah mueihla loh anih te a cuuk thil ni.

3 He will be glad to obey Yahweh. He will not decide [whether someone is righteous or not only] by seeing what that person looks like, or by listening to [what others say about that person].

Anih te BOEIPA hinyahnah dongah hmae tih a mik dongkah a hmuethma neh laitloek mahpawh, a hna yaaknah nen khaw oltloek mahpawh.

4 He will judge [the cases of] needy people fairly; and he will act justly toward poor people. He will punish evil people as a result of what he decides [MTY]; he will get rid of wicked people because of [MTY] [their behavior].

tattloel rhoek te duengnah neh lai a tloek pah vetih khohmuen kah kodo rhoek ham te tlangtlae la ol a tloek pah ni. A ka dongkah mancai neh diklai a taam vetih a hmuilai kah a mueihla neh halang te a duek sak ni.

5 He will always act righteously; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a belt [around his waist]. He will always speak what is true; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a sash [around his waist].

A cinghen ah duengnah hailaem, a pumpu ah uepomnah hailaem om ni.

6 [When he becomes king], wolves and lambs will live together [peacefully]; leopards, [instead of killing] baby goats, will lie down with them. [Similarly], calves and lions will eat food together; and a young child will take care of them.

Uithang neh tuca, kaihlaeng neh maae ca hmaih bakuep ni. Saelca neh sathueng khaw, a puetsuet khaw tun kol rhoi ni. Te vaengah amih te tanoe camoe loh a hmaithawn ni.

7 Cows and bears will eat [together]; bear cubs and calves will lie down together. Lions will [not eat other animals]; [instead], they will eat hay like cows do.

Vaito neh vom khaw hmaih luem vetih a ca rhoek khaw tun kol uh ni. Sathueng long khaw saelhung bangla cangkong ni a caak pawn eh.

8 Babies will play [safely] near the holes where cobra snakes [live]; small children will [even] put their hands into nests of poisonous snakes, [and the snakes will not harm them].

Cahni khaw minta khui rhai ah hnang vetih rhulthae khui la sukkan paek loh a kut a puei ni.

9 No creatures will harm or kill other creatures on [Zion Hill], my holy hill; and the earth will [be filled with people who] know Yahweh like [SIM] the seas are full of water.

Kai kah tlang cim tom ah thaehuet uh mahpawh, poci uh mahpawh. BOEIPA kah a lungming he tuitunli due aka khuk tui bangla diklai hman ah baetawt ni.

10 At that time, a descendant of King David will [hold up] a flag to signal to the people of all people-groups [that they should gather around him]; they will come to him to get his advice, and the place where he lives will be glorious.

Tekah khohnin a pha vaengah amah taengah pilnam kah rholik la aka pai Jesse kah a yung te namtom rhoek loh a tlap uh vetih a thangpomnah te duemnah la om ni.

11 At that time, Yahweh will (reach out his hand/use his power) as he did long ago; he will enable those who had been (exiled from/forced to leave) Israel to return home, from Assyria, from northern Egypt, from southern Egypt, from Ethiopia, from Elam, from Babylonia, from Hamath, and from all the distant countries near the sea.

Te khohnin a pha vaengah Assyria, Egypt, Parthros, Kusah, Elam, Shinar, Khamath neh tuipuei sanglak lamkah a caknoi tih aka sueng a pilnam te lai hamla Boeipa loh a kut koekthoek a thueng bal ni.

12 Yahweh will raise his flag among [all] the people-groups, and he will gather together the people of Israel who had been exiled [long ago]. He will gather from very distant places [IDM] on the earth the people of Judah who [(had been scattered to/are living in) those places].

Namtom rhoek ham rholik a ling pah vetih a heh tangtae Isreal a coi vetih Judah khui lamkah a taekyak tangtae te diklai a kil pali lamloh a coi ni.

13 [Then], the people of Israel and the people of Judah will not be jealous of each other [any longer], and they will no [longer] be enemies of each other.

Ephraim kah thatlainah te nong vetih, Judah kah a puencak te khaw paa ni. Ephraim loh Judah taengah thatlai voel mahpawh. Judah loh Ephraim te puencak thil voel mahpawh.

14 Their [armies] will [join together to] attack the people of Philistia to the west. And together they will attack nations to the east; they will [defeat those nations and] take away all their valuable possessions. They will capture [the areas of] Edom and Moab, and the people of the Ammon people-group will be controlled/ruled by the people of Israel and Judah.

Philisti tlanghlaep ah khotlak la camawt uh vetih khothoeng ca rhoek te rhenten a poelyoe uh ni. Edom neh Moab khaw a kut dongah a rhanah uh la, Ammon ca rhoek te amih taengom la poeh ni.

15 Yahweh will make a dry road through the sea near Egypt. And [it will be as though] he will wave his hand over the [Euphrates] River and send a strong wind to cause it to divide into seven streams, with the result that people will be able to walk across [those streams].

BOEIPA loh Egypt tuipuei kah a ol te a bil pah vetih tuiva te a kut a thueng thil ni. A khohli hlihueng neh soklong te parhih la a phih sak vetih khokhom neh a cawt ni.

16 And because he will make a highway for his people who are living in Assyria, they will be able to return [to their own land], just like [long ago] he made a path for [the people of] Israel [so that they could go through the water] when they left Egypt.

Egypt kho lamkah a caeh hnin vaengah Israel ham a om pah van bangla Assyria lamkah a caknoi a pilnam aka sueng ham longpuei a om pah ni.
