Amos 9
1 Hmaicam taengah angdoe Angraeng to ka hnuk: anih mah, To ah kaom kaminawk boih ih lu nuiah krak hanah thok tung to bop ah; nihcae ih caaknawk to sumsen hoiah ka hum han. Nihcae thung hoi kacawn kami loe loih mak ai, maeto doeh loih mak ai.
I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and He said: “Strike the tops of the pillars so that the thresholds shake. Topple them on the heads of all the people, and I will kill the rest with the sword. None of those who flee will get away; none of the fugitives will escape.
2 Hell khoek to kathuk akhaw takae o cadoeh, to ahmuen hoiah nihcae to ka naeh han; van ranui khoek to daw o tahang langcadoeh, to ahmuen hoiah nihcae to ka pakhrak tathuk han: (Sheol h7585)
Though they dig down to Sheol, from there My hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, from there I will pull them down. (Sheol h7585)
3 karmel mae nuiah nang hawk o tak cadoeh, to ah ka pakrong moe, ka naeh han; nihcae mah ka hmaa hoiah tuipui thung khoek to anghawk o cadoeh, to ah nihcae to patuk hanah, pahui to lok ka paek han.
Though they hide themselves atop Carmel, there I will track them and seize them; and though they hide from Me at the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent to bite them.
4 Nihcae loe angmacae misanawk hma ah tamna ah caeh o langlacadoeh, to ah sumsen to lok ka paek moe, ka humsak han. Nihcae nuiah hoihhaih to sah ai ah, sethaih to sak lat hanah nihcae to ka khet parui poe han.
Though they are driven by their enemies into captivity, there I will command the sword to slay them. I will fix My eyes upon them for harm and not for good.”
5 Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw mah long to sui naah, tui ah amkaw, a thungah kaom kaminawk boih palungset o; to ah kaom kaminawk loe tuipui baktiah angthawk o ueloe, Izip prae ih tuipui baktiah amsah o tathuk tih.
The Lord GOD of Hosts, He who touches the earth and it melts, and all its dwellers mourn— all the land rises like the Nile, then sinks like the river of Egypt—
6 Anih loe van ranui ah ohhaih im kahoih to sak moe, long nuiah ohhaih im to a sak; anih mah tuipui ih tuinawk to kawk moe, long nuiah kraih tathuk, Anih ih ahmin loe Agraeng, tiah oh.
He builds His upper rooms in the heavens and founds His vault upon the earth. He summons the waters of the sea and pours them over the face of the earth. The LORD is His name.
7 Aw Israel kaminawk, nangcae loe kai hanah Ethiopia kaminawk baktiah na ai maw na oh o? Izip prae thung hoiah Israel zaehoikung loe kai na ai maw? Philistin kaminawk Kaphtor hoiah zaehoikung loe kai na ai maw, Kir hoiah Syria kaminawk zaehoikung doeh kai na ai maw? tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
“Are you not like the Cushites to Me, O children of Israel?” declares the LORD. “Did I not bring Israel up from the land of Egypt, the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Arameans from Kir?
8 Khenah, Angraeng Sithaw ih mik loe kazae siangpahrang ukhaih prae nuiah oh, to ahmuen to long nui hoiah kam rosak boih han; toe Jakob imthung takoh loe kam rosak boih mak ai, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
Surely the eyes of the Lord GOD are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from the face of the earth. Yet I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,”
9 Khenah, lok to ka paek moe, vaizoek pongah na zoek o ih cang baktih toengah, prae kaminawk boih salakah Israel imthung takoh to ka zoek han; toe cang amaeh maeto doeh long ah krah mak ai.
“For surely I will give the command, and I will shake the house of Israel among all the nations as grain is sifted in a sieve; but not a pebble will reach the ground.
10 Sethaih mah aicae to kae mak ai, sethaih doeh a tongh o mak ai, tiah kathui, kami zae kai ih kaminawk loe sumsen hoiah dueh o boih tih.
All the sinners among My people will die by the sword— all those who say, ‘Disaster will never draw near or confront us.’”
11 To na niah loe kamtimh tangcae David ih kahni im to ka pathawk moe, kamro hmuennawk to ka pakhraih let han; amrohaih to ka pathawk let moe, canghnii ih baktiah ka sak let han:
“In that day I will restore the fallen tent of David. I will repair its gaps, restore its ruins, and rebuild it as in the days of old,
12 to naah ni nihcae mah kanghmat Edom kaminawk hoi Kai ih ahmin hoiah kawk ih Gentelnawk to toep o boih let tih, tiah hae hmuennawk Sahkung Angraeng mah thuih.
that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations that bear My name,”
13 Khenah, Laikok atok kami mah cang aat kami hnukah banghaih atue, misurtui pasaw kami mah aanmu haeh kami hnukah banghaih atue, mae mah misurtui kaluep longsakhaih atue, mae boih ah misurtui longhaih atue to pha tih, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
“Behold, the days are coming,” declares the LORD, “when the plowman will overtake the reaper and the treader of grapes, the sower of seed. The mountains will drip with sweet wine, with which all the hills will flow.
14 Kaimah ih kami Israelnawk to tamna ohhaih thung hoiah ka hoih let han; nihcae mah kamro vangpuinawk to sah o let ueloe, to ah khosah o let tih. Misur takha to sah o ueloe, misurtui to nae o tih; takhanawk to sah o ueloe, thingthaihnawk to caa o tih.
I will restore My people Israel from captivity; they will rebuild and inhabit the ruined cities. They will plant vineyards and drink their wine; they will make gardens and eat their fruit.
15 Israel to angmacae prae ah ka thling han, ka paek ih prae thung hoiah nihcae to natuek naah doeh aphongh mak ai boeh, tiah Angraeng na Sithaw mah thuih.
I will firmly plant them in their own land, never again to be uprooted from the land that I have given them,”
