Zechariah 7
1 Darius lengpa Vaipoh kumli channa lhako lhinna Chislea lha kiti nili lhinnin Pakaiyin Zechariah henga thu ahin seije:
And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of Jehovah came unto Zechariah on the fourth [day] of the ninth month, [even] in Chislev,
2 Hichun Bethel khomiten Saherzer le Regem-molech toh amiteu chu Pakai lunglhaina holdin asol tauve,
when Bethel had sent Sherezer and Regem-melech, and his men, to supplicate Jehovah,
3 Chujong leh thaneipan Pakai Hou-in na thempu leh themgao hochu thu aga dong’e, “Keiman hitih chan khanga kahin bolngai banga chu lhanga lhinseh leh lunghem kabolla an kangol ding ham, kum hijat sunga kabol bang banga?” tin sei uvintin asol uve.
[and] to speak unto the priests that were in the house of Jehovah of hosts, and to the prophets, saying, Should I weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done now so many years?
4 Hiche ahin thanei pen Pakaiyin kajah in thu ahin seijin hitin ati.
And the word of Jehovah of hosts came unto me, saying,
5 Gamsunga mite jahle thempuho jah a khun hiti hin seijin, nanghon lhanga lhin leh lha sagi teng leh lunghem anbollu khu, hiche kum som-sagi sunga hi keima dinga anngolla nahiuvem?
Speak unto all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying, When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and in the seventh [month], even those seventy years, did ye really fast unto me, [even] unto me?
6 Chuleh nanghon an naneh uva twi na donteng u-jongleh khun nangho le nangho dia na kineh uva chule nangho le nangho dia na kidon jiu hilou ham?
And when ye ate, and when ye drank, was it not you that were eating and drinking?
7 Jerusalem khopia mi achen lai, neile gou thalhin lai akimvel dunga jong khopi tampi aumna lhanglam gamla gammon lai dung jong min achenpha laiya chu hicheng mahi Pakaiyin themgao masaho komma aphondoh sa hilou ham?” tin ati.
Are not these the words that Jehovah cried by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and at peace, and her cities round about her, when the south and the lowland were inhabited?
8 Pakai thupeh chu Zechariah komma ahung lhung in hitin ati.
And the word of Jehovah came unto Zechariah, saying,
9 Thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin aseije, min asopi kom ah ngailutna leh khotona nei tahin thudih in thu tanhen,
Thus speaketh Jehovah of hosts, saying, Execute true judgment, and shew loving-kindness and mercies one to another,
10 Meithai hihen nuneilou pa neilou hijong leh kholjin hihen mivaicha hijong leh bol genthei hihen chuleh na lungthim in na sopi chunga thilse gel hihen,
and oppress not the widow and the fatherless, the stranger and the afflicted; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.
11 Amahon nathuseiju ngaida uhenlang, nanung ngat’u henlang na thuseiju ajah lou na diuvin akollu sip jong leu,
But they refused to hearken, and turned a rebellious shoulder, and made their ears heavy, that they should not hear.
12 A lungthi un nanahsah dau henlang danthu jong kihet mosah jongleu themgao masaho komma hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin ana phondoh ija tihih jong leu, hijeh achu hatchungnung Pakaija konna hung deojah jenga ahi.
And they made their heart [as] an adamant, that they should not hear the law, and the words that Jehovah of hosts sent by his Spirit by the hand of the former prophets: therefore was there great wrath from Jehovah of hosts.
13 Keiman amaho kakouva eingaipeh lou jeh'un amahon eihin kouteng ujongleh keiman jong kangai peh lou ding, ahi tin thaneipen Pakaiyin aseijin ahi.
And it came to pass, like as he called, and they would not hear, so they called, and I would not hear, saith Jehovah of hosts;
14 Ama hohi ahet khah louvu chitin namtin lah a chimpei banga ka thethang gam ding ahi. Hitia chu agamsung uchu akeo hella kijam ding koi machan ahung vilkhah lou ding ahitan, agam nomtah uchu manlou asodoh sah u ahitai.
and I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations whom they knew not, and the land was desolate after them, so that no one passed through nor returned; and they laid the pleasant land desolate.
