¹But now thus saith Jehovah, that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel: Fear not, for I have redeemed thee, I have called [thee] by thy name; thou art mine.

¹Tuin jaw, Jakobte aw, Toupa nou honsiampa leh, Isrealte aw, nou honbawlpan, hichiin a chi; laukei un, ka hontanta hi; na min un ka honsama, keia na hi uhi.

²When thou passest through the waters, I [will be] with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee; when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned, neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

²Tuite na ngah tan lai un leng na kiang uah ka om dinga; luite na ngah tan lai un leng a hontum kei ding hi: meia na pai tan lai un leng ka honhun kei dinga; meikuangin leng a honliau kei ding hi.

³For I [am] Jehovah thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.

³Kei Toupa na Pathian uh, Israelte Mi Siangthou, nou honhumbitpa ka hi ngala; noute tatna ding in Aigupta gam ka piaa, Ethiopia leh Seba gamte na sik ding un ka pia hi.

⁴Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee; and I will give men for thee, and peoples for thy life.

⁴Ka ngaihin manpha mahmah na hi ua, mizahtakhuai mahmah leng na hi uh hi, itleng ka honit jiakin, na sik un mite ka pe dinga, na hinna sik ding un mi chih ka pe ding hi.

⁵Fear not, for I [am] with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;

⁵Lau kei un, na kiang uah lah ka om ngala: na suante uh suahlam akipanin ka honpi dinga, tumlam akipanin ka honpi khawm ding hi;

⁶I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from afar, and my daughters from the end of the earth,

⁶Mal lam kiangah, Khah un, ka chi dinga; sim lam kiangah, Len kei un, ka chi ding; ka tapate gamlapi akipanin honpi unla, ka tanute kawlmong akipanin honpi un;

⁷every one that is called by my name, and whom I have created for my glory: I have formed him, yea, I have made him.

⁷Ka min popeuhmahte leh ka thupina dinga ka siam peuhmahte; amau ka bawla, ahi, amau ka suktuah ahi uh hi.

⁸Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.

⁸Mit nei ngala mittote leh, bil nei ngala bengngongte, pi khia un.

⁹Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the peoples be assembled: who among them declareth this, or causeth us to hear former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified; or let them hear, and say, [It is] truth.

⁹Nam chih kikhawm uhenla, mi chih om khawm uhen: a lak ua kua ahia hiai gen theia, tumalam thilte hontheisak thei? Siamtansaka a om theihna ding un a palaite uh honpi uhen: ahihkeileh bilin ja uhenla, thutak ahi, chi uhen.

¹⁰Ye are my witnesses, saith Jehovah, and my servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I [am] HE: before me there was no ùGod formed, neither shall there be after me.

¹⁰Mi theiha, mi upa, amah kahi chih na theih theihna ding un, noute ka palaite na hi uh, ka tel ka sikha leng, Toupan a chi: ka om main Pathian himhim bawl a om keia, ka om nungin leng a om sak kei uh.

¹¹I, I [am] Jehovah; and besides me there is no saviour.

¹¹Kei, keimahmah, toupa ka hi; keimah loungal hondampa himhim a om kei.

¹²It is I that have declared, and have saved, and have shewed, when there was no strange [god] among you; and ye are my witnesses, saith Jehovah, that I [am] ùGod.

¹²Ken ka gena, ka hondama, ka theisaka, na lak uah gamdang Pathian himhim a omkei hi: huaijiakin noute ka palaite na hi uh, TOUPAN a chi, huan kei lah Pathian ka hi.

¹³Yea, since the day was, I [am] HE, and there is none that delivereth out of my hand: I will work, and who shall hinder it?

¹³A hi, ni om nungsang kei amah ka hi; huchiin ka khuta kipan honkhe thei himhim kuamah a om kei uh; na ka sema, kuan ahia huai hei ding?

¹⁴Thus saith Jehovah, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought all of them down as fugitives, even the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships.

¹⁴toupa, nou hontanpa, Israelte Mi Siangthouin hichiin a chi: Nou jiakin Babulon khuaah sepaihte ka sawla, huchiin, a vek un, Kaldaite, akipahna longpi uah taimangmi piin ka pi suk ding.

¹⁵I [am] Jehovah, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.

¹⁵Kei toupa, na Mi Siangthou uh, Israelte siampa, Na Kumpipa uh ka hi, chiin.

¹⁶Thus saith Jehovah, who maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters,

¹⁶Tuipi-a lampi bawlpa leh, tui thupi mahmah te a paina ding bawlpa, TOUPAN hichiin a chi;

¹⁷who bringeth forth chariot and horse, army and power -- they lie down together, they shall not rise; they are extinct, they are quenched as tow:

¹⁷Kangtalai leh sakol, sepaihte leh thilhihtheihna pi khepan (huaite a lum khwm zengzung ua, a thou nawnta kei ding uh; a chimit khin ua, khawnvak puan minsak bangin mihsakin a omta uh), chiin.

¹⁸-- Remember not the former things, neither consider the ancient things:

¹⁸Tumalam thilte jaw theihgige kei unla, nidanglai thilte leng ngaihtuah sam kei un.

¹⁹behold, I do a new thing; now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, rivers in the waste.

¹⁹Ngai un, thilthak ka hih sin; tua kipanin a dawn ding; huai na theikei ding ua hia? Gamdai nangawnah lampi ka bawl dinga, gam keu ah leng luite ka bawl ding.

²⁰The beast of the field shall glorify me, the jackals and the ostriches; for I will give waters in the wilderness, rivers in the waste, to give drink to my people, my chosen.

²⁰Gamsaten leng honpahtawi ding ua, sehalte, vasa ngawngsaute tanin: gamdai a tuite ka om sak jiak leh, gamkeua luite ka om sak jiakin, ka mi, ka telte kianga dawn dinga piak ding.

²¹This people have I formed for myself: they shall shew forth my praise.

²¹Hiai mite kei adingin ka bawla; kei phatna a hihlang ding uhi.

²²-- But thou hast not called upon me, Jacob; for thou hast been weary of me, O Israel:

²²Himahleh Jakobte aw, nou jaw non sam kei ua, isarel te aw, noujo nawn chimtak zota uhi.

²³thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt-offerings, neither hast thou glorified me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to toil with an oblation, nor wearied thee with incense.

²³Halmanga na thil lat uh gan noute non lak ngei kei ua; na kithoihnate un lah non pahtawi sam kei uhi. Thil latin na ka honsemsak ngei keia, begawin leng ka honhihgim ngei kei hi.

²⁴Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices; but thou hast made me to toil with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities.

²⁴Kawltu himhim dangkain non leisak ngei kei ua, na kithoihna thaute un leng na hon taisak ngei kei uh: na khelnate uh puak nasepte non sem sak jaw ua, na tatleknate un nou na honhihgim zota uhi.

²⁵-- I, I [am] He that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and I will not remember thy sins.

²⁵Kei, kei mahmah, keimah leh keimah jiak lela na tatleknate uh nul mangjelpa ka hi; na khelhnate u leng ka theigige kei ding.

²⁶Put me in remembrance, let us plead together; rehearse thine own [cause], that thou mayest be justified.

²⁶Hon theihpih un; ngaihtuah chiat ni: siam tansaka na om theihna ding un na thu gen un.

²⁷Thy first father hath sinned, and thy mediators have rebelled against me.

²⁷Na pu masapen un a khiala, na thugenmite uh leng ka tungah a talek uh.Huaijiakin mun siangthou-a mi liante ka hihbuah dinga, huchiin Jakobte hamsethuak dingin ka bawl dinga; Israelte muhdah din ka bawl ding hi.

²⁸And I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the ban, and Israel to reproaches.

²⁸Huaijiakin mun siangthou-a mi liante ka hihbuah dinga, huchiin Jakobte hamsethuak dingin ka bawl dinga; Israelte muhdah din ka bawl ding hi.
