Malachi 2
1 Tun thempu hon ngaiuvin hiche thupeh hi nangho dinga ahi.
Now, therefore, for you, is this charge, O ye priests: —
2 Kasei hi ngai’unlang ka min jabolna ding in lunggel thah na nei tan, tin hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin aseije. Achuti louleh na chunguva sapsetna nasatah kalhunsah ding ahi. Tahbeh in keiman ka sapsetsa nahitauve, ajeh chu nanghon kagihnau chu na gelkhoh pouve.
If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory to my Name, saith Yahweh of hosts, then will I send among you the curse, and will curse your blessings, —and indeed I have cursed them, because ye are not at all laying it to heart.
3 Keiman na chilhahteu ka engbol a thilboh ho chu na maichanguva ka thekhum ding ahi. Chu tengleh na thilbol ho lah’a ka selut ding nahiuve.
Behold me! threatening, on your account, the seed, and I will scatter refuse upon your faces, the refuse of your festivals, —and one shall carry you away unto it;
4 Chutengleh nanghon Levite toh nakitepnau achejom theina dinga gihsalna vopsah chu keima kahi chu nahin hetdoh ding’u ahi, tin hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin aseije.
So shall ye know that I sent unto you this charge, —as being my covenant with Levi, saith Yahweh of hosts.
5 Levite toh kitepna ka nanei nalopen chu na hinkhouva chamna nanei theina diuva kana peh’u ahi. Hiche hin amaho’a konna jana leh ginna kachantheina ding a hin amahon jana lentah eina peuvin kamin loupina dingin ana ding chahkheh’un ahi.
My covenant, was with him, Life and Well-being, so I gave them to him—[I] as One to be revered— and he did revere me, — and, before my Name, dismayed, was he.
6 Amahon keija konna amu’u thupeh ho chu amiteu anape sonnun ahi. Amahon jou le tah chonna ana neipouve, amahon keidei lampi ana chepiuvin phatna leh chonphatnaa konin mi tamtah ahin le puidoh kit’un ahi.
The deliverance of truth, was in his mouth, and, perverseness, was not found in his lips, — In well-doing and in uprightness, walked he with me, and, multitudes, did he turn from iniquity.
7 Pathena konna chihna leh hetthem theina hi thempu ho kom’a konna hung potdoh ding hitia chu mipi ho chu amaho kom’a thuhil ngaicha a cheji diu ahi. Ajehchu amaho hi hatchungnung Pakai thuhil pole ho ahiuve.
For, the lips of a priest, should keep knowledge, and, a deliverance, should men seek at his mouth, — for, the messenger of Yahweh of hosts, he is.
8 Ahin nangho thempuhon Pathen lampi na peltauve nang ho thuhila konin mi tachonsea alhalut tauvin ahi. Nanghon Levite toh ka kitepna chu na suboh tauvin ahi, tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin aseijin ahi.
But, ye, have departed out of the way, ye have caused multitudes to stumble at the deliverance, — ye have violated the covenant of Levi, saith Yahweh of hosts.
9 Hijeh achu keiman nang ho hi vannoi mite ho mitmu a kidah umtah leh noise umtah ka hisah nahitauve. Ajeh chu nanghon ka thu nangai pouvin, ka thuhil dungjuijin na chon pouvin mipi lah a sihnei langneina in na natongun ahi.
Therefore, I also, will suffer you to be despised and of no account unto all the people, —in proportion as none of you have been keeping my ways, but have had respect to persons, in giving your deliverance.
10 Eiho hi mipa khat cheh ihiu hilou ham? Eiho hi Pathen khatseh sem ihi louvu ham? Chuti ahileh iti danna eiho leh eiho ikilhep lhahuva ipu ipateu Pathen toh iki tepnau chu i-suhkehu hitam?
Is there not, one Father, to us all? Did not, one GOD, create us? Wherefore should we deal treacherously one with another, profaning the covenant of our fathers?
11 Judah akitah poi, Jerusalem leh Israelte lah a thil dihlou tah ahung lhung tai. Juda miten semthu milim hou numeiho a kichenpiuvin Pakai muntheng a suboh tauve.
Judah, hath dealt treacherously, and, an abomination, hath been wrought in Israel, and in Jerusalem, — for Judah, had profaned, the holy place of Yahweh, which he had loved, and hath taken to himself the daughter of a foreign GOD.
12 Hijeh chun Pakaiyin hitobang bol ho jouse chuleh hatchungnungpen Pakai henga thilto dihlou hin choi ho jouse hi Israel namlaha konin amaho hi hatchungnung Pakaiyin ka chomkhen tan ahi.
May Yahweh, cut off, from the man that doeth it—him that crieth out and him that answereth, out of the tents of Jacob, — him also that bringeth near a present to Yahweh of hosts.
13 Chuleh nanghon thildang nabol’u jong aum’e. Pakaiyin na thiltou anah sahlou jeh leh alunglhai lou jeh, asan thei lou jeh'in Pakai maicham chung chu na mitlhi na chupsahin kap leh lunghem tahin na khoisa in ahi.
And, this, a second time, will ye do, covering with tears, the altar of Yahweh, weeping and making outcry, —because he will not again turn unto the gift, and receive [it] with acceptance, at your hands?
14 Nangman na seijin, “Pakaiyin ipi dinga ka taona hi asan lou ham nati.” Keiman seipeh ing kate! Ajeh chu na khandonlaija na jinei a chu ahetoh a Pakai pang ahi. Ahinlah amanu naji hina a na kichen lhonna na kitepna lhon dungjuija kitah taha aum vang'in nang vang kitahlou tahin na hung chon tan ahi.
Yet ye say, For what cause? Because, Yahweh, hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, with whom, thou, hast dealt treacherously, though, she, was thy consort, and thy covenant wife.
15 Pakaiyin naji toh pumkhat hidinga na goplhon hilou ham? Tahsa leh lhagaova ama a nahi lou ham? Chuleh aman adei chu ipi ham? Na kigop lhonna pat Pathenna nahi lhon hilou ham? Hijeh chun phatah in kingaiton lang na khandonlaija na jinu a chun kitah tahin um'in, ati.
Now was it not, One, [who] made [you] who had, the residue of the spirit? What, then, of that One? He was seeking a godly seed. Therefore should ye take heed to your spirit, and, with the wife of thy youth, do not thou deal treacherously.
16 Ajeh chu keiman kida hi ka mah ahi! tin Israel Pathen in aseijin ahi. Na jinu chu na da leh ama chunga chu engsetna nalhut khum ahitai, tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin asei’e. Hijeh chun ki tomla in na jinu chunga na kitepna lhon sukeh hihin.
For he hateth divorce, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, him also who covereth with violence his own clothing, saith Yahweh of hosts, —therefore should ye take heed to your spirit, and not deal treacherously.
17 Na kampaovin na Pakai chu suboi hihun; nang hon iti kasuhboi uvem? tiuvin nate: thilse bol hi Pakai mitmua thilpha ahin, ama lunglhaina ahi natiu hin Pakai chu nalung phatmosahu ahi, thu adihtaha tan Pathen chu um hinam natiu hin, nalung phatmosahu ahije.
Ye have wearied Yahweh with your words, and yet ye say, Wherein have we been wearisome? When ye have said, Everyone who doeth wrong, is right in the eyes of Yahweh, and, in them, he hath taken delight, or, Where is the God of justice?
