< Micah 5 >

1 Tun galsat dingin sepai jalamkai ho kigong tauvin, Jeruslem khopi, ikimvelluvah galmiten eiumkimvel tauve, galsatdin sepai mihonpi hung kikhom loijun. Amaho Israel lamkaipa satdin ahung kon taove.
“Now cut yourself in bitter grief, daughter besieged by soldiers. They have set a wall around you. They strike the ruler of Israel, in the face with a rod.
2 Ahinlah nangma, O Bethlehem Ephrahthah, Judah phunga aneopen nahi, hijongleh nanga kona hi kei dinga Israel sunga vaihom ding khat hung peng doh ding, Ama chu akipatna ahung kona gollui laipeha ahitan, ni masalai, lha masalaija umjing sapeh ahitai.
“Bethlehem in Ephrathah, small among the tribes of Judah, from you will come a king who will rule for me over Israel, whose family line goes back to the distant past.”
3 Pakaiyin amite naosonat thohnu naonei kahsea chu donlouva akoija ahaisending ahitai, chuteng leh amoh ahing nalai chengse chu amite henga hung kile kitding ahi.
So the Lord will only abandon Israel to its enemies until the woman in labor gives birth. Then the survivors will be reunited with their own people.
4 Pakai thahat vanga ama chu dinga akelngoi hon chu avah ding ahiye. Hitia chu amite chu koiman asuhlong louding ahitai chule leiset kolmong geija atha’u ajeding ahitai chule amaho jong lungmonga chengdiu ahitai.
And he will stand and shepherd by the strength of the Lord, In the exalted name of the Lord his God; And they will live in security, for now he will be great, even to the ends of the earth.
5 Chuleh ama chamkonna hung hiding, Assyria miten gamsunga gal ahin boltinguleh, kelngoi chinga mi sagi le mipi laha milen milal miget pang diu ahi.
This will be our peace: when Assyria comes into our land and treads on our soil, we will raise up against him seven shepherds, eight leaders of men.
6 Amahon Assyria gam'a chemjama vai ahopuva Nimrod gamsung jong vai ahop diu Assyria mite a kona hi amahon eihuhdoh diu ahi
They will shepherd Assyria with a sword, and the land of Nimrod with bared blades. They will deliver us from Assyria, when they come into our land, and tread within our borders.
7 Chuteng Israel amoh chengse mitin vaipi laha um uva, Pakaiya kona hungkumlha daitwi tobang ahilouleh hampa chunga go hung julha tobang hidiu ahitai.
And the survivors of Jacob will be disbursed among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, like dew from the Lord, like showers on the grass, which don’t wait for people to come or linger for mortals.
8 Israel amoh chengse chu namtin vaipi laha um uva, kithe thang soh diu, gammang laha keipi bahkai um banga, chule kelngoi hon laha keipi bahkai nou banga umdiu, kelngoi chu ahung potdoh tih tengule abotel teldiu koimachan ahuhdoh theilou tobang hiding ahi.
And the survivors of Jacob will be disbursed among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, like a lion among the beasts of the forest, like a young lion among the sheep-folds, who, when he passes through, pounces. He savages his prey. There is no rescuer.
9 Nagalmi, nakidoupite chunga Israel in nadinpi ding, chule nagal mite kithat gamding.
Let your hand triumph over your adversaries, let all your enemies be cut off.
10 Hiche nikho chuleh na sakolteu katha gamding, nakangtalai jouse jong ka suhset ding.
On that day, says the Lord: “I will slaughter your horses from your midst, and destroy your chariots.
11 Nakhutna na tohdoh phunsan jouse jong kasuh mongsoh helding
I will devastate the cities in your land, and tear down your fortresses.
12 Nakulpi jouse jong kasuhchim soh hel ding.
I will destroy your magic charms, and you will have no soothsayers.
13 Milim doihouna nasem jouse jong kasuh mong soh ding.
I will cut down your idols and sacred pillars, and you will not worship any more the work of your hands.
14 Nakoma kona asrins doi nahou jong ka suhmong ding chuleh nakhopi jouseu jong kasuh mongsoh helding ahi.
I will uproot your sacred poles, and destroy your idols.
15 Lunghang taha namtin vaipi thungai louho chunga ka phulahna ka sunlhah ding ahi.
In my wrath and my anger I will seek vengeance on the nations that ignore me.”
