< Amos 1 >

1 Juda gam’a, Teko’ah kho’a cheng kelngoi ching hat, Amos kitipa heng’a, hiche thuhi ana lhung e. Judah gam’a Uzziah lengvaipoh lai chuleh Israel gam’a Jehoash chapa Jeroboam lengvaipoh laiya, ling kiho masang kum nina-a chu, hiche thuhi Amos in themgao thilmua anamu ahi.
The words of Amos, who was among the herdsmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
2 Aman hitin aseije, “Pakai ogin gimnei tah chu, Zion lhanga kon a hung kitum ding, chuleh Jerusalem khopia kon’a gamtin thong leuva hung ging ding ahi. Chuleh kelngoi ching ho hamhing dum jouse goplha ding, Carmel lhang’a hamhing ho geija goplha-a thigam dingu ahi.”
He said: "The LORD will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the pastures of the shepherds will mourn, and the top of Carmel will wither."
3 Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Keiman Damascus khopi talen manlouva ka lha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu amiten chonset abol bol jing uvin, anga deh pouvin ahi. Amahon Gilead mun’ah kamite chu thih kangkuiya chang kikui bangin abol’un, ahi.
Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Damascus, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have threshed the pregnant women of Gilead with threshing instruments of iron;
4 Hijeh’a chu Keiman Hazael lengpa inpi meiya kahal lhah ding, chuleh Ben-hadad lengpa kulpi jong kasuhmang ding ahi.
but I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.
5 Keiman Damascus khopi kotpi ka tumboh ding, chuleh Aven phaicham a cheng miho katha gam ding ahi.
I will break the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the Valley of Wickedness, and him who holds the scepter from Beth Eden; and the people of Aram shall go into captivity to Kir," says the LORD.
6 Pakaiyin hitin aseije, “Gaza khopi talen manlouva kalha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu amiten chonset abol bol jeng’un, anga deh pouvin ahi. Amahon kho jousea miho abon’un sohchang in atolmang un, Edom gam’a soh in ajohdoh gam tauvin ahi.
Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Gaza, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they carried away captive the whole community, to deliver them up to Edom;
7 Hijeh’a chu Keiman Gaza khopi bang ho meiya kahal lhah ding, chuleh akulpi jouse jong kasuhmang ding ahi.
but I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, and it will devour its palaces.
8 Keiman Ashdod mite ka suhgam ding, chuleh Ashkelon lengpa jong ka suhmang ding ahi. Chuteng Ekron douna-a keiman ka khut kalha ding, Chuleh Philistine mi ahing doh amoh chengse jong thigam diu ahi,” tin Hatchung nung Pakaiyin aseiye.
I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him who holds the scepter from Ashkelon; and I will turn my hand against Ekron; and the remnant of the Philistines will perish," says the LORD.
9 Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Tyre khopi talen manlouva kalha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu amiten chonset abol bol jengun, anga deh pouve. Amahon Israel toh sopi unao hina akitepnau asukeh’un, khojousea miho abon’un Edom gam’a soh chang in ajoh doh gam tauvin ahi.
Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Tyre, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they delivered up the whole community to Edom, and did not remember the brotherly covenant;
10 Hijeh’a chu, Keiman Tyre khopi bang ho meiya ka hallhah ding, chuleh akulpi jouse jong ka suhmang ding ahi,” ati.
but I will send a fire on the wall of Tyre, and it will devour its palaces."
11 Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Edom mite talen man louva kalha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu amahon chonset abol bol jeng uvin, anga deh pouvin ahi. Amahon asopite, Israelte, chung’a chemjam apan’un adel jeng’un, dipdamna beijin aboltauve. Amahon, alungdam theilou jeh’un, asopite chu asat jing’un, chuleh nasatah in lunghang den in aum tauvin ahi.
Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Edom, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because he pursued his brother with the sword, and cast off all pity, and his anger raged continually, and he kept his wrath forever;
12 Hijeh’a chu Keiman Teman meiya kahal ding, chuleh Bozrah kulpi jouse jong ka suhmang ding ahi.
but I will send a fire on Teman, and it will devour the palaces of Bozrah."
13 Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Ammon mite talen man louva kalha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu amahon chonset abol bol jeng uvin, anga dehpouvin ahi. Amahon gamgi kehbe na ding in, Gilead chu gal asat khum’un, numei gailai ho chemjam in agai acheuvin ahi.
Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of the people of Ammon, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead, that they may enlarge their border.
14 Hijeh’a chu keiman Rabbah khopi bangho meiya kahallhah ding, chuleh akulpi jouse jong kasuhmang ding ahi. Hiche gal chu, chimpei nasatah kipei bang ding, chuleh huise gimnei tah gin bang’a, mi peng in husa kithong ding ahi.
But I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it will devour its palaces, with shouting in the day of battle, with a storm in the day of the whirlwind;
15 Chutah leh alengpau leh leng chapate jouse abon’uva, migam’a sohchang ding’a kitolmang soh diu ahi,” tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
and their king will go into captivity, he and his officials together," says the LORD.
