Amos 1
1 Tekoa kah saelhung boei rhoek khuikah aka om Amos ol. Judah manghai Uzziah tue neh Israel manghai Joash capa Jeroboam tue, lingluei hmai kah kum vaengah Israel ham a hmuh pah.
The words of Amos, who was among herdsmen of Thecua: which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Ozias king of Juda, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel two years before the earthquake.
2 BOEIPA tah Zion lamloh kawk tih Jerusalem lamloh a ol a huel tih a thui. Te vaengah boiva aka dawn kah rhamtlim te nguekcoi tih Karmel lu rhae coeng.
And he said: The Lord will roar from Sion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem: and the beautiful places of the shepherds have mourned, and the top of Carmel is withered.
3 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Damasku kah boekoeknah pathum neh pali dongah anih te ka rhael mahpawh. Gilead te thi vueituk neh a boh.
Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Damascus, and for four I will not convert it: because they have thrashed Galaad with iron wains.

And I will send a fire into the house of Azael, and it shall devour the houses of Benadad.
5 Damasku thohkalh te ka khaem vetih kolbawn lamkah khosa rhoek khaw, Betheden kah caitueng aka pom khaw ka thup ni. Aram kah pilnam te Kir la a poelyoe uh ni tila BOEIPA loh a thui.
And I will break the bar of Damascus: and I will cut off the inhabitants from the plain of the idol, and him that holdeth the sceptre from the house of pleasure: and the people of Syria shall be carried away to Cyrene, saith the Lord.
6 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Gaza kah boekoeknah pathum phoeikah pali dongah anih ka rhael mahpawh. Amih hlangsol a poelyoe tih Edom taengah rhuemtuet la a det.
Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Gaza, and for four I will not convert it: because they have carried away a perfect captivity to shut them up in Edom.
7 Gaza vongtung soah hmai ka tueih vetih a impuei khaw a hlawp pah ni.
And I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, and it shall devour the houses thereof.
8 Ashdod kah khosa neh Ashkelon kah caitueng aka pom rhoek khaw ka thup ni. Ekron taengah ka kut ka thuung vetih Philisti kah a meet rhoek khaw milh uh ni tila Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui.
And I will cut off the inhabitant from Azotus, and him that holdeth the sceptre from Ascalon: and I will turn my hand against Accaron, and the rest of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord God.
9 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Tyre kah boekoeknah pathum neh pali dongah anih te ka rhael mahpawh. Hlangsol te Edom taengah rhuemtuet la a det tih manuca kah paipi te poek uh pawh.
Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Tyre, and for four I will not convert it: because they have shut up an entire captivity in Edom, and have not remembered the covenant of brethren.

Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Edom, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath pursued his brother with the sword, and hath cast off all pity, and hath carried on his fury, and hath kept his wrath to the end.
12 Te dongah Teman soah hmai ka tueih vetih Bozrah impuei khaw a hlawp pah ni.
I will send a fire into Theman: and it shall devour the houses of Bosra.

Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of the children of Ammon, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath ripped up the women with child of Galaad to enlarge his border.

And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabba: and it shall devour the houses thereof with shouting in the day of battle, and with a whirlwind in the day of trouble.
15 Amih kah manghai amah neh a mangpa rhoek vangsawn la rhenten cet ni tila BOEIPA loh a thui.
And Melchom shall go into captivity, both he, and his princes together, saith the Lord.
