< Micah 2 >

1 Ajalkhun chunga alupna muna, ajan jan a thilse bolding ngaitoa gel gelho ada ahiuve, ijeh-inem itileh athodoh teng abol nathei tha aneiyu ahi.
Woe to those who lie awake planning evil, who in the light of morning carry out their plan because they have the power to do it.
2 Gam phabep na deichat jong chu nakilah jengin ahi, mi koitobang ham insah na deichat jong chu nakilah jengin ahi.
They covet fields and seize them, desire houses and take them, they crush householder and his household, people and their possessions.
3 Hiche hi Pakaiyin asei ahi, “Thilse naboljeha thilse kapeh ding; nanah homma kona na lolchang na bodoh jou lou ding, Chuleh kiletsah tahin lam jot hih'in, phat khohtah hung ding ahi.
Therefore the Lord says: “I am planning disaster from which you cannot save your neck, nor walk proudly because it will be a terrible time.
4 Hiche nikho teng chule nagal miten totnop na-a na nei ding, nang douna-a kiletsahna la asah ding, keiho amongthah kahi tauve, Pakaiyin kamite chanding akheltan, kakoma konin kachanding akilah dohtan ahi.
On that day they will sing a taunt-song to you, this mocking lament: ‘My people’s estate is being measured for sale, our captors are dividing our fields. We are completely undone.’
5 Pakai miten nagamgi iti kisekhen ham tia aei sangun, michom dangin nagamgi asekhen ding ahitai.
There will be no one to measure out land for you from the Lord’s community.
6 Hitobang chu seitahih in, mipiten adonbutuve. Hitobng chun gaothu seidan.
“‘Don’t rant!’ they urge, ‘Of such things one does not prophesy! Shame will not overtake us!
7 O Israel insung mite, hitobanga hi thu kiseimong mong ding hinam? Pakai lhagao chu thohhat taha um mong hinam? Adih chu nabol nom leh, kilhamonna thu keija kona najah ding ahiye.
Is the Lord impatient, or are such things his deeds? Are not his words favorable to the family of Jacob?’ Aren’t my commands good for those who obey them?
8 Tutahin kamite eidoudin akipanun, galmite bangin, mi lungmonga umjong anung lamah asangkhol na holhah pehun, kiphatlam taha umho jong gal nabol khumuve.
But you, you stand up as a foe against those who are peaceful; you strip the robe from those who pass by quietly, averse to conflict.
9 Kamite numeiho, nomtah a achennaova konin anodoh un, achateo asenhoa konin jong Pathen loupina alamang tauve.
Women of my people you drive out from their happy homes, from their young children you take away my glory forever.
10 Kipatdoh un! Chetauvin! Hikom mun hi na gamule na in-u ahipoi, nangho dinga chonsetna dimset mun ahi, chule themmona jeh'a kichai deh jeng nahiuve.
Rise and begone, for this is no place to rest. Your uncleanness brings destruction, severe destruction.
11 Avetkah nan Themgao tamtah laha jousei themgao khat in, na kom ah, “Keiman tunia ju leh khamna theija Kipana Thupha kasei ding ahi!” ati.
If a person walking in wine and falsehood were to say, ‘I will prophesy to you of wine and strong drink,’ then he would be the perfect prophet for this people!”
12 “Nikhat leh O Israel keiman kahin khop ding nahiuve, keiman akidalha amoh chengse kahin khop ding nahiuve, kelngoihonte banga hamhing laha kahin lonkhom kit ding nahiuve. Heng’e, na gamuva mi hung tam kit ding ahi.
“I will assuredly assemble all of Jacob, I will surely gather the survivors of Israel. I will herd them together as sheep in a fold, like a flock in the pasture, and the land will resound with the sounds of multitudes.
13 Na lamkaiteuvin nakikai mong naova kona nasuhtup kitdiu ahi, chule nagalmiteu kelkot phunga kona na hong sunga nahung kile kit dingu ahi, na Lengpaovin na lamkai untin na Pakaiyu mong mongin na ventup jing dingu ahi”.
“The one who breaks out goes first. They have broken forth and passed by the gate and through it have they gone out. Their king leads before them, the Lord at their head.”
