< Amos 7 >
1 Hatchungnung Pakai chun, thil hicheng hi themgao thilmun keima eivetsah e. Pakaiyin khaokhote tamtah alomchang’a, gamsunga ahinlhalut keiman kamui. Hichu, loujaova lousoh-ga lengpa ding’a akikhop tup jou, aban’a ding lousoh-ga ahungdon doh thah phatlai ahi.
This is what the Lord Yahweh showed me. Look, he formed a locust swarm when the spring crop began to come up, and, look, it was the late crop after the king's harvest.
2 Khaokhoten gamsung’a hamhing aum jouse abonchan ane chaisoh hel tan ahi. Chu in ken jong, “Vo Hatchungnung Pakai, nahenga kataove nei ngaidam’un, kahindoh joulou diu ahitai. Ajeh chu, Israel hi neocha ahibouvin, na kidoupi kham jong ahipoi’’ tin ka sei tai.
When they finished eating the vegetation of the land, then I said, “Lord Yahweh, please forgive; how will Jacob survive? For he is so small.”
3 Hijeh chun Pakaiyin alung ngaito akhel in, “Hiche hi kibolda tahen!’’ tin Pakaiyin asei tai.
Yahweh relented concerning this. “It will not happen,” he said.
4 Chujouvin, Hatchungnung Pakai chun, themgao thilmun thildang khat eimusah kit e. Pakaiyin amite chunga gotna thutan khum ding in meikong hattah khat akouvin, hiche meikong chun kokhuh thuhtah tah jong akachai jeng in, chuleh gamsung pumpi jong ahalvam soh hel tai.
This is what the Lord Yahweh showed me: Look, the Lord Yahweh called on fire to judge. It dried the vast, deep water under the earth and would have devoured the land, also.
5 Chuin kenjong, vo hatchungnung Pakai, naheng’a kataove nei lungset’un bolda tan, ka hindoh joulou diu ahitai, ajeh chu Israel hi neocha ahibouve, na kidoupi kham jong ahipoi,’’ tin ka sei tai.
But I said, “Lord Yahweh, please stop; how will Jacob survive? For he is so small.”
6 Chutah chun Pakaiyin alungngaito akhel kit in,’ “Hiche jong hi kibolda tahen,’’ tin thanei pen Pakaiyin aseiye.
Yahweh relented concerning this, “This also will not happen,” said the Lord Yahweh.
7 Chujouvin, Pakaiyin thildang khat, themgao thilmun eivetsah kit e. Pakaiyin akhut’a songkhai-in tena khat achoijin, pal kigensa kom’a ading’e. Aman hiche pal kigensa chu phatea dingdet jing hinam, tin atetoh len ahi.
This is what he showed me: Look, the Lord stood beside a wall, with a plumb line in his hand.
8 Chuleh Pakai chun eidong in,’’Amos ipi namu em? eiti. Chuin kenjong ka donbut in, “songkhai-intena khat kamui’’ kati. Chutah chun Pakaiyin aseijin, “Hiche songkhai-intena kachoija hi, kamite ka tetoh ding, achonset nau jouse donlouva kakoi louhel ding ahi.
Yahweh said to me, “Amos, what do you see?” I said, “A plumb line.” Then the Lord said, “Look, I will put a plumb line among my people Israel. I will spare them no longer.
9 Na pului teu doipheng ho abon’a kisuse gamhel ding, Israel mite muntheng ho jouse jong ahomkeuva kijamsoh hel ding ahi. Chuleh Jeroboam insung khang gui jong kasuh gamhel ding ahi’’ ati.
The high places of Isaac will be destroyed, the sanctuaries of Israel will be ruined, and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.”
10 Chuin Bethel khopia thempupa, Amajiah kitipa chun, Israel lengpa Jeroboam kom’a mi asol in, thu agalhut sah tai. ‘’Israel mite jalah tah’a, nakotphung ngeiya hin, Amos kitipan, nang douna leh dehnan thu aseijin, athusei doh hohi dou’a dou jou ahipoi.
Then Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, sent a message to Jeroboam, king of Israel: “Amos has conspired against you in the middle of the house of Israel. The land cannot bear all his words.
11 Aman hitin aseiye, “Jeroboam hi chemjam’a loutei tei ding, sot lou ding ahitai. Chuleh Israel mite jong sohchang’a kikaimang diu ahi,’’ tin aga sei sah tai.
For this is what Amos said, 'Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will surely go into exile away from his land.'”
12 Chujouvin, Amajiah in Amos chu thu apen, “Vo mitva neipa, hilaimun’a kon in potdoh'in! Judah gamsung’a kilekit loijin, chuleh chua chun gaothu nasei nom nom seijin lang naneh ding ga kihol tan!
Amaziah said to Amos, “Seer, go, run back to the land of Judah, and there eat bread and prophesy.
13 Hilai Bethel khopia hin gaothu avel in hung seikit tahih in. Ajeh chu hilaimun hi, lengpa muntheng ahin chuleh gamsung pumpi dia jong muntheng Pathen houna mun ahi bouve’’ ati.
But do not prophesy anymore here at Bethel, for it is the king's sanctuary and a royal house.”
14 Chuphat in Amos in adonbut in, “Keima themgao tah tah chu kahi pon, chuleh themgao guija peng jong kahipoi. Keima kelngoi ching’a pang mei mei kahin, theipi thingna ho malngim lea pangbou kahi.
Then Amos said to Amaziah, “I am not a prophet nor a prophet's son. I am a herdsman, and I take care of sycamore fig trees.
15 Ahivang in, kelngoi hon nung kajuina akon in Pakaiyin eikou doh tan, kajah’a aseitai. “Chenlang, kamite Israelte lah’a gaothu ga sei tan,’’ eiti.
But Yahweh took me from tending the flock and said to me, 'Go, prophesy to my people Israel.'
16 Hijeh chun, tunjong Pakai thusei hi ngaijin. “Nangman nasei jin; Israel dounan jong gaothu seidan lang, kamite dounan jong thuhil in pang hih in’’ nati.
Now hear the word of Yahweh. You say, 'Do not prophesy against Israel, and do not speak against the house of Isaac.'
17 Amavang, Pakaiyin hitin aseiye; “Na jinu chu khopi sung’a notia hung pang ding, chuleh na chapate leh na chanute chem. jam’a hunglou diu, na gamsung jong abeh beh’a kihom khen ding, chuleh nangma tah jong migam’a naga thiding ahi. Chuleh Israel chate jong agamsung uva kon’a gamdang’a sohchang’a kitolmang teitei ding ahiuve, ati,’’ tin aseiye.
Therefore this is what Yahweh says, 'Your wife will be a prostitute in the city; your sons and your daughters will fall by the sword; your land will be measured and divided up; you will die in an unclean land, and Israel will surely go into exile from his land.'”
