Micah 6
1 Pakaiyin ipi aseijem ngaijuvin, kipat dohin lang na chung chang thuhi molsang jouse maijah ahetoh ding in phongdoh temin.
Hear now what the Lord is saying: Arise, present your complaint before the mountains, let the hills hear your voice!
2 Chule tun, O molsang jouse Pakai minel na thu kiseidoh hi ngaijuvin, aman amite chungah kinelna thu aseiye. Ami Israelte chunga gahna apeh ding ahi.
Hear, mountains, the Lord’s accusation, listen, foundations of the earth. For the Lord has a case against his people. He has a dispute with Israel.
3 O kamite, nachunguva ipi kabolset em? Nachunguva ipi kabol gentheina umem? Nei donbut un.
“My people, what have I done to you. How have I displeased you? Answer me!
4 Chujong leh keiman Egypt gam'a konin kahin puidohuvin chuleh nabulput na henlhah nauva konin kana lhatdoh tauvin ahi. Aaron, Mose chule Miriam nakithopi dinguvin kahin sollin ahi.
For I brought you up from the land of Egypt, from the land of slavery I redeemed you. I sent Moses, Aaron, and Miriam to lead you.
5 Kamite, nageldoh lou-u mong ham? Moab lengpa Baalak chun itobanga thilse anagon hija, Beor chapa Balaam chun itobanga ana donbut ham, kamiten geldohuvin. Chule Acace muna kipana Gilgal chengeija nakholjinnao chu geldohuvin. Keima na Pakaiyuvin kakitahna a thil ijakai kabolpeh nahiuve.
My people, what did Balak, king of Moab counsel? And how did Balaam, the son of Beor, answer him? Remember now the journey from Shittim to Gilgal, so that you might realize the just deeds of the Lord.”
6 Ipi thilpeh choija Pakai angsunga kalut dingham? Itobang maicham thil kapeh ding ham? Bongnou jeng pumgo thiltoa kachoilutna a ang sunga bohkhupma kapoh lut ding ham?
With what should I come before the Lord? Bow myself before the God on high? Should I come before him with burnt-offerings, with calves a year old?
7 Kelngoi chaljeng asang asang chule vadung sangsom jen dimset Olive thaotwi kapehleh lunglhai mong ding hinam? Ka chonset ngaidamna dinga kacha apeng masapen kapeha lunglhai ding hinam?
Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, With ten thousand streams of oil? Should I give him my firstborn son for my guilt, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
8 Vo mihem, Pakaiyin thilpha chu navetsahsa ahitai, Pakaiy in nanga kona adei chu ipiham? Thu adiha natanpeha, mi khoto ding nakhohsaha, chule na Pathen nunga kinemsahtaha lam najot ding hi ahibouve.
The Lord has told you what is good, what he demands of you: Only to do justice and love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
9 Nachiha ahileh Pakai ging in! Pakai ogin in Jerusalem a mijouse akouve. Sugenthei dingin Pakaiyin galmi ahin sol’e.
Listen! The Lord calls to the city! Listen, tribe and assembly of the city!
10 Migilou insunga kikhol gitlouna, joulhepna chu ken ipi kasei ding ham? Gaosap na chunga thil adihlou kite chu kasuh mil thei ding hinam?
“Can I forget the hoarded treasures in the houses of the wicked, and the accursed scant measure?
11 Thil tena dihlouva kitea, hitobanga lhing louva kiveiho chu, keiman iti kathoh ding ham?
Can I leave her unpunished because of evil scales, and the bag of false weights?
12 Nalahuva mihaothei hon jong pumhat jeng athouvin, nagam mite hon jong jou thu jeng aseijuve.
Whose rich people are full of violence, her inhabitants liars, whose tongues speak deceit?
13 Hijeh a chu keiman nang kadenpan nahitai! Na chonset jeh'a ahomkeova kajam nahitai.
“But I indeed, have begun to punish you, to lay you in ruins because of your sins.
14 Nejong lechun nava theilou ding, na oisunga nagil keljing jeng ding, sum kikholdoh nan natin, ema na koidoh thei lou ding, nangin na kholdohsa chu keiman najou dingho kapeh ding ahi.
You will eat but not be satisfied, your stomach empty within you. You will store up but lose everything, because whatever you save I will give to the sword.
15 Muchi natu jing jeng ding, ahinlah aga nalo louhel ding ahi, Olive thao naheh heh ding, ahinla nangman thaotui nanei lou ding ahi.
You will sow but not reap. You will tread the olives but have no oil for rubbing, tread grapes but drink no wine!
16 Omri kitipa dan semsa najuijin, Ahab leng giloutah nung na juiyin, hijeh a chu mipi namu jousen ija nahsah louva nanuisat ding ahi.
“For you have followed the commands of Omri, and all the practices of the house of Ahab. You have acted in accord with their counsels, so I will give you up to ruin, the city’s inhabitants to derision. The nations will treat you with contempt!”
