Micah 7
1 Ada kahitai! Ajeh chu thingga akilona nunga koiman nehding kimu talou bangbeple lengpi theiga leh theichang kichomna nung tabang in kaumdoh tai.
My woe [is] to me, for I have been As gatherings of summer-fruit, As gleanings of harvest, There is no cluster to eat, The first-ripe fruit desired hath my soul.
2 Leiset chunga Pathen gingte la amangthah gamtan, mihemte laha lungdih pua khatcha Jong aumpon, thisan soa tolthat jeng ahiuve. Ami jousen asopi kipalna dinga thang kamjeng ahiuve.
Perished hath the kind out of the land, And upright among men — there are none, All of them for blood lie in wait, Each his brother they hunt [with] a net.
3 Akhutuvin thilse jeng a boluvin lung nachang mongin thilse aboluve. Thutanna pang milen milalhon jong nehguh ding akithum thum'un ahi.
On the evil [are] both hands to do [it] well, The prince is asking — also the judge — for recompence, And the great — he is speaking the mischief of his soul, And they wrap it up.
4 Alahuva aphapena kisei jong chu ling tobang ahin, lungdih pentaha kiseipa jong chu ponlah abang’e, min akailuht nadiu nikho leh talen amat nadiu nikho chu hung lhung ding ahitai.
Their best one [is] as a brier, The upright one — than a thorn-hedge, The day of thy watchmen — Thy visitation — hath come. Now is their perplexity.
5 Koimacha tahsan hihin, nagol ngaitah jeng jong ahilou leh na inneipi jeng jong tahsan hih in.
Believe not in a friend, trust not in a leader, From her who is lying in thy bosom keep the openings of thy mouth.
6 Chapan jong apa, chanun jong anu, mounu in jong atehpi chunga, namelma chu na insung taha kon hiding ahi.
For a son is dishonouring a father, A daughter hath stood against her mother, A daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, The enemies of each [are] the men of his house.
7 Keiman Paki jeng bou eipanpi din vejing ingting, eihuhhing ka Pathen kanga jing ding ahi, Chutileh ka Pathen in kataona angai tei ding ahi.
And I — in Jehovah I do watch, I do wait for the God of my salvation, Hear me doth my God.
8 Kagal miten duchatah in neive hihun, lhujong leng kathodoh kit ding ahi. Muthim laha toujong leng Pakai chu kameivah hiding ahi.
Thou dost not rejoice over me, O mine enemy, When I have fallen, I have risen, When I sit in darkness Jehovah is a light to me.
9 Pakaiy in eigimbol jongle kathoh hat ding, ajeh chu ama dounaa kachonset jeh in. Ahinlah aman kachung thu hinkhol nante. Kei dinga thu atan masang sea kangai ngai ding ahi. Pakai in khovah a eipuidoh intin, chuteng chon dihna kamu ding ahi.
The indignation of Jehovah I do bear, For I have sinned against Him, Till that He doth plead my cause, And hath executed my judgment, He doth bring me forth to the light, I look on His righteousness.
10 Chuteng kamelmaten Pakai kei langa apan ahetdoh diu, na Pakai hoiya umem tia aseiju chu kijumsoa jahchabeh seh diu ahi. Hichenu chu kamit in noise taha avet ding ahi. Amanu chu lamlen kholai dunga min achotpha a leivui chil banga kichil ding ahi.
And see doth mine enemy, And cover her doth shame, Who saith unto me, 'Where [is] Jehovah thy God?' Mine eyes do look on her, Now she is for a treading-place, As mire of the out-places.
11 Hiche niteng chule Israel, nakhopi kisapha kit ding, chule nagamgi ho jong kikehlen ding.
The day to build thy walls! That day — removed is the limit.
12 Gam tamtah'a kona mipite hunga Assyria a kipana gam latah Egypt, Egypt a kipana Euphrate luipi changei, twipi leh mol ho kallanga, molsang jousea kona lhang sang jouse geija hung diu ahi.
That day — even unto thee it doth come in, From Asshur and the cities of the fortress, And from the fortress even unto the river, And from sea to sea, and mount to mount.
13 Leiset vang hi agoh keova hunglum ding, ajeh chu masanga ana cheng masaho chonset jeh ahi.
And the land hath been for a desolation, Because of its inhabitants, Because of the fruit of their doings.
14 O Pakai nakelngoi china tenggollin namite neichingun, nakelngoi honte neilam kaijun, gammang laha hin achangsehin cheng jong leo, amahohi Bashan gamle Gilead gam'a kelngoi lhat bangin lhauhen, gollui laiya bangin umuhen.
Rule Thou Thy people with Thy rod, The flock of Thine inheritance, Dwelling alone [in] a forest in the midst of Carmel, They enjoy Bashan and Gilead as in days of old.
15 Henge, tin Pakaiyin aseije. “Keiman thil kidang nasatah tah kabol peh diu Aigupta a kona nahung potdohuva kanabol banga kabol
According to the days of thy coming forth out of the land of Egypt, I do shew it wonderful things.
16 Leiset pumpia namtin vaipin kidang asah sahdiu, Pakaiyin nang hi dinga thil kidang abol tengleh jachatna aneidiu, anakoluva jong kho ajah lou diu ahitai.
See do nations, and they are ashamed of all their might, They lay a hand on the mouth, their ears are deaf.
17 Gul banga levui aleija aledio, leisetna a-opma kithol ganhing banga umdiu ahi. Akulpiuva konna kihot hotna hung potdoh diu, akichat behseh jeh uva Pakai ahin beldiu ahi. Nangma jeh'a amaho hi abonchauva kichasoh kei ding ahiuve.
They lick dust as a serpent, as fearful things of earth, They tremble from their enclosures, Of Jehovah our God they are afraid, Yea, they are afraid of Thee.
18 Nang banga agoulo amite ahungdoh amoh chengse dinga themmona, ngaidamna, suhkhelna, subei soh thei Pathen koipen um ding ham? Pathen chu alunghang jing jengpoi, ajeh chu Pakai hi alungset longlou anei hi kipah jo ahibouve.
Who [is] a God like Thee? taking away iniquity, And passing by the transgression of the remnant of His inheritance, He hath not retained for ever His anger, Because He — He delighteth [in] kindness.
19 Neihin lungset kit’un natin; ka chonsetnau chengse jong nakengto noija koi in natin; twikhanglen'a na lelutding ahi.
He doth turn back, He pitieth us, He doth subdue our iniquities, And Thou castest into the depths of the sea all their sins.
20 Jacob jong kitahna neitaha nabolla, long louva Abraham nalungset ding, masanglai a kapu kapateu koma na kihahsel banga nabol tei ding ahi.
Thou givest truth to Jacob, kindness to Abraham, That thou hast sworn to our fathers, from the days of antiquity!
