¹Thus says Yahweh to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held, to subdue nations before him, and strip kings of their armor; to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut:

¹Toupan a thaunilh, Kura, namte a maa phukpai ding leh, kumpipate kawnggakte phelsak ding leh, a maa kongkhakte honsak ding leh, kulh kongkhakte khak louha omsak dingpa, a khut taklam ka letpa kiangah, hichiin a chi:

²“I will go before you, and make the rough places smooth. I will break the doors of brass in pieces, and cut apart the bars of iron.

²Kei na maah ka pai dinga, a phok lailai ka kibang sak ding: dal kongkhak ka hihse vek dinga, a kalhna siktawnte ka tansak ding:

³I will give you the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that it is I, Yahweh, who call you by your name, even the God of Israel.

³Huan, Toupa, na mina honsampa, Israelte Pathian ngei ka hi chih na theihtheihna dingin mial laka goute ka honpe dinga, mun daia sum selte leng ka honpe ding.

⁴For Jacob my servant’s sake, and Israel my chosen, I have called you by your name. I have surnamed you, though you have not known me.

⁴Jakobte ka sikhate leh Israelte ka telte jiakin na minin ka honsama; honthei ngei kei mahle chin na min ka honphuahsak hi.

⁵I am Yahweh, and there is none else. Besides me, there is no God. I will strengthen or, equip you, though you have not known me;

⁵Keimah Toupa kahi, adang himhim a om kei; keimah loungal Pathian himhim a om kei: hon thei ngei keimahlechin na tai ka honggaksak ding hi:

⁶that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none besides me. I am Yahweh, and there is no one else.

⁶Keimah loungal a dang himhim a om kei chih ni suahna lama kipan leh tum lama kipana a theih theihna ding uh: kei jaw Toupa ka hi, a dang himhim a om kei.

⁷I form the light, and create darkness. I make peace, and create calamity. I am Yahweh, who does all these things.

⁷Vak ka bawla, mial leng ka siam hi; kituahna ka bawla, gilou leng ka siam hi; kei jaw Toupa, huchibang thil tengteng hihjelpa ka hi, chiin.

⁸Distil, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness. Let the earth open, that it may bring forth salvation, and let it cause righteousness to spring up with it. I, Yahweh, have created it.

⁸Vante aw, tunglam akipanin takkhe sak un, van dumten diktatna hon sung suk uhen: hotdamna a dotkhiak sak theihna ding un lei kihong henla, diktatna toh pou khawm sak hen; kei Toupan huaite ka siam ahi.

⁹Woe to him who strives with his Maker— a clay pot among the clay pots of the earth! Shall the clay ask him who fashions it, ‘What are you making?’ or your work, ‘He has no hands?’

⁹Amah Bawlpa kinakpih mi tung a gik hi! Belleiin a velmi kiangah, Bang bawlna hia? A chi dia hia? Ahihkeileh, na nasepin, A khutin siam himhim a neikei? A chi dia hia?

¹⁰Woe to him who says to a father, ‘What have you become the father of?’ or to a mother, ‘To what have you given birth?’”

¹⁰A pa kianga, Bang suang na hia? Chimi tung hiam, a nu kianga, Bang ahia na suan ding? chimi tung hiam a gik hi!

¹¹Thus says Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker: “You ask me about the things that are to come, concerning my sons, and you command me concerning the work of my hands!

¹¹Toupa, Israelte Mi Siangthou, amau Bawlpan hichiin a chi: Thil hongtung ding thu hondong unla; ka tapate thu leh ka khut nasep thu ah thu hon pia un.

¹²I have made the earth, and created man on it. I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens; and I have commanded all their army.

¹²Lei ka bawla, a tunga mihing om leng ka bawla: keimahin ka khut ngeiin, van ka kai palha, a sepaihte leng thu ka pia,

¹³I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will make straight all his ways. He shall build my city, and he shall let my exiles go free, not for price nor reward,” says Yahweh of Armies.

¹³Kura diktatna neiin ka ding saka, a lampi tengteng ka tangsak ding: aman ka khopi a bawl nawn dinga, a tatna man uh deih jiakin hi louin, kipahman deih jiak leng hi louin, ka salte a pawt sak ding, sepaihte Toupan a chi, chiin.

¹⁴Thus says Yahweh: “The labor of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over to you, and they shall be yours. They will go after you. They shall come over in chains; and they will bow down to you. They will make supplication to you: ‘Surely God is in you; and there is none else. There is no other god.

¹⁴Toupan hichin a chi, Aigupta semgimte leh Ethiopia sumsinmi leh Savea-te mi sang pipite na kiang lam uah a hongpai ding ua, nou adingin a omta ding uh; nou a honjui ding ua; khainiang bulhin ahi a hongpai ding uh: huchiin khupbohin nou chibai a honbuk ding uh, Pathian noumauah a om ngut hi; a dang himhim a om kei, pathian dang himhim a om kei, chiin, na kiang uah hehpihna a ngen ding uh, chiin.

¹⁵Most certainly you are a God who hidden yourself, God of Israel, the Savior.’”

¹⁵Israelte Pathian aw, Hondampa, Pathian kisel nakpa na hi ngut hi.

¹⁶They will be disappointed, yes, confounded, all of them. Those who are makers of idols will go into confusion together.

¹⁶Zahlaktakin a om ding ua, ahi, a vek un zumtakin a om ding uh: milim bawlmite zumnaah a lut chiat ding uh.

¹⁷Israel will be saved by Yahweh with an everlasting salvation. You will not be disappointed nor confounded to ages everlasting.

¹⁷Israelte bel khantawn hotdamnaa Toupan hotdamin a om ding uh: khantawn tanin leng na zahlak kei ding ua, na zum sak kei ding uhi.

¹⁸For thus says Yahweh who created the heavens, the God who formed the earth and made it, who established it and didn’t create it a waste, who formed it to be inhabited: “I am Yahweh; and there is no other.

¹⁸Toupa van siampan (amah lah Pathian, lei bawla siampa ahi; aman lei a kipsaka, bangmahlou din a bawl keia, mihing omna dingin a bawljaw hi) hichiin a chi ngala: Kei Toupa ka hi; a dang himhim a om kei.

¹⁹I have not spoken in secret, in a place of the land of darkness. I didn’t say to the seed of Jacob, ‘Seek me in vain.’ I, Yahweh, speak righteousness. I declare things that are right.

¹⁹A gukin, gam mial munah, thu ka gen ngei keia; Jakob suante kiangah bangmah lou dingin honzong un, ka chi ngei kei: kei Toupan diktatna thu ka gen jela, thudik mahmahte ka gen jel hi.

²⁰“Assemble yourselves and come. Draw near together, you who have escaped from the nations. Those have no knowledge who carry the wood of their engraved image, and pray to a god that can’t save.

²⁰Kikhawm unla hongpai un; nam chih kala gawtna pelte aw, hongpai nai chiat un: a sing milim bawl tawm tawia, mi hondam theiloupi pathian kianga thum jelten theihna himhim a neikei uh.

²¹Declare and present it. Yes, let them take counsel together. Who has shown this from ancient time? Who has declared it of old? Haven’t I, Yahweh? There is no other God besides me, a just God and a Savior; There is no one besides me.

²¹Gen unla, hon pawt khe sak un; ahi, kidong uhenla: tumasiah akipan kuan ahia theisak? Nidanglaia kipan kuan ahia gen? kei Toupan ka hih ahi kei maw? Keimah lou ngal Pathian dang himhim a om kei; Pathian diktat leh hondampa ka hi; keimah lou ngal a dang himhim a om kei.

²²“Look to me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.

²²Kawlmonga mi tengteng aw, kei lam hongnga unla, hotdamin om un: kei lah Pathian ka hi ngala, a dang himhim a om kei.

²³Khuk chih ka maah a khukdin ta dia, lei chihin leng ka kiangah kichiam in thu achiamta ding chi in kei lehkei ki lou in ka ki chiam ta, thu lah diktatna ngenin ka kam akipanin a pawttaa, a hongkik nawnta kei ding.

²⁴They will say of me, ‘There is righteousness and strength only in Yahweh.’” Even to him shall men come; and all those who were incensed against him shall be disappointed.

²⁴Min, Toupa kia ah diktatna leh hatna a om, chiin, ka tanchin a gen ding uh: amah kiang ngeiah mi a hongpai ding ua, a tunga lungkimlou tengteng zahlaktakin a omta ding uh, chiin.Israel suan tengteng Toupa ah ahi, siamtansaka a om ua, Toupa a suan ding uh, chiin.

²⁵Israel suan tengteng Toupa ah ahi, siamtansaka a om ua, Toupa a suan ding uh, chiin.
