< Micah 3 >
1 Ngaijuvin, nangho Israel lamkaihon, nangho adihlouva kona adih hekhen ho.
And I sayd, Heare, I pray you, O heads of Iaakob, and yee princes of the house of Israel: should not ye knowe iudgement?
2 Ahinlah nanghon thilpha nahouvin, thilphalou nangailuve, nanghon kamite ahing changin avun nalip doh pehun, aphe jouse jong agua konin naleodohpehun ahi.
But they hate the good, and loue the euill: they plucke off their skinnes from them, and their flesh from their bones.
3 Kamite aphe naneovin, avun jouse nalip dohuvin, agu nahebohpehuvin asa’u, sa kihonna belsunga sa hon bangin na kihonuvin ahi.
And they eate also the flesh of my people, and flay off their skinne from them, and they breake their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.
4 Chutengleh nahahsat genthei niuleh Pakai hengah panpina ngaichan nathum kitun, na taonao na sanpeh diuva naginchat mongu hinam? Thilse tampi nabol jou keijuva, Pakai angsunga thil na thumuleh, amit kale changa jong navet louhel diu ahi.
Then shall they crye vnto the Lord, but he will not heare them: he wil euen hide his face from them at that time, because they haue done wickedly in their workes.
5 Hiche hi Pakaiyin asei ahi. “Nang ho, themgao lhem hon kamite napui mong tauve! Anneh ding napeteu henga kichamna thun na kiteppiuvin, ahinlah nehding napenomloute hengah gal nabol khumun ahi.
Thus saith the Lord, Concerning the prophets that deceiue my people, and bite them with their teeth, and cry peace, but if a man put not into their mouthes, they prepare warre against him,
6 Tua hi nangho jan muthim tobanga naum diu, themgao thilmu banga namu lou diu, ahitai. Muthimin na umkimvellu ahitai, chuleh nahin nikhou achaina lam hiding ahitai.
Therefore night shalbe vnto you for a vision, and darkenesse shalbe vnto you for a diuination, and the sunne shall goe downe ouer the prophets, and the day shalbe darke ouer them.
7 Chuteng gao thilmu neipa jong kijumso ding, chuleh mitva neipa jong kisih ding chuleh pon a na mai nakitom ding, ajeh chu Pathen’a kona donbutna namu tahlou jeh ahi.
Then shall the Seers bee ashamed, and the southsayers confounded: yea, they shall all couer their lippes, for they haue none answere of God.
8 Ahivangin kei dingin vang katha ahat in, lhasam louvin Pakai Lhagao thahat nan kadim jing nai. Keima Pakai thutah leh ahatnan kadim jingnai Israel chonsetna hangsan tahin ka doudal jing’e.
Yet notwithstanding I am full of power by the Spirite of the Lord, and of iudgement, and of strength to declare vnto Iaakob his transgression, and to Israel his sinne.
9 Kasei ngaijuvin, Israel lamkaiho! nang hon thu adiha kitan natheuvin, akitoha thilbol nahei monguvin ahi.
Heare this, I pray you, ye heades of the house of Iaakob, and princes of the house of Israel: they abhorre iudgement, and peruert all equitie.
10 Nanghon Jerusalem jou leh nal chuleh thisan so pumin na sauvin ahi.
They build vp Zion with blood, and Ierusalem with iniquitie.
11 Lamkaija panghon nehguh muna dingin thu natanuvin! Thempua panghon jong Pathen danbu sum lonan thu nahillun, Themgaova pang hon jong sum munana dingin gaothu aseijun, ahijeng vang'in Pakai jenga bou kingai in bou, naki seijuve. “Ema akhohpoi keiho heng lam ah hung un.” ajeh chu Pakai eiho laha aume natiuve.
The heads thereof iudge for rewardes, and the Priestes thereof teache for hyre, and the prophets thereof prophecie for money: yet wil they leane vpon the Lord, and say, Is not the Lord among vs? no euill can come vpon vs.
12 Nangho jeh'a Zion lhang jong loulai kikai banga kikai ding, Jerusalem jong mangthah dinga kemsuh ding! Gammang soh tading, tule tua houin kisah namun khu.
Therefore shall Zion for your sake bee plowed as a field, and Ierusalem shalbe an heape, and the mountaine of the house, as the hye places of the forest.
