Amos 1
1 Judah siangpahrang Uzziah, Isarel siangpahrang Jehoash e capa Jeroboam tinaw e kut dawk talî a no hoehnahlan kum hni navah, tukhoum e lah kaawm e, Tekoa tami Amos ni Isarel ram hanelah, a hmu sak e lawk teh,
The words of Amos, one of the shepherds of Tekoa, which he prophesied concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam, the son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the earth quake. He said: —
2 BAWIPA ni Zion mon dawk hoi a hram teh, Jerusalem kho hoi lawk a pathang dawkvah, tukhoumnae hmuennaw teh, a kamyai vaiteh, Karmel monsom teh a kamyai han.
Jehovah will roar from Zion, And utter his voice from Jerusalem; The habitations of the shepherds shall mourn, And the top of Carmel shall wither.
3 Miphunnaw lathueng lawkcengnae ni kâ a poe e teh, Damaskas kho teh, Gilead ram hah cangkatinnae sum e sehnaw hoi katin e yon phun kathum touh dueng hoeh niteh, yon pali touh dawkvah reknae na khang laipalah kaawm mahoeh.
Thus saith Jehovah; For three transgressions of Damascus, And for four, will I not turn away its punishment; For they thrashed Gilead with thrashing-wains of iron.
4 Hazael im dawk hmai ka tha vaiteh, Benhadad e imnaw hah ka kak sak han.
I will send a fire upon the house of Hazael, Which shall devour the palaces of Benhadad.
5 Damaskas kho e longkha a khannae takhoe pouh han. Aven tanghling pueng, Beth-eden kho dawk e bawi katawknaw pueng, ka raphoe han. Sirianaw hah Kir kho lah a man awh han telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
I will also break the bar of Damascus, And I will destroy the inhabitant from the valley of Aven, And him that holdeth the sceptre from Beth-Eden, And the people of Syria shall be led captive to Kir: Jehovah hath said it.
6 Hahoi BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, Gaza kho teh, paung e tami abuemlah hah Edom bawi koe poe hanlah, a man e yon kathum touh dueng laipalah, yon pali touh dawkvah, reknae na khang laipalah na awm mahoeh.
Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Gaza, And for four, I will not turn away its punishment; For they led captive all that fell into their hands, And delivered them up to Edom.
7 Gaza kho rapan lathueng vah hmai ka tha vaiteh siangpahrang imnaw pueng hah ka kak sak han.
But I will send a fire upon the wall of Gaza, Which shall devour her palaces.
8 Ashdod kho e tami pueng, Ashkelon kho dawk bawi katawknaw pueng, ka raphoe han. Ekron kho hai ka tuk vaiteh, kaawm rae Filistin taminaw hai be a ro han telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei.
And I will destroy the inhabitant from Ashdod, And him that holdeth the sceptre from Ashkelon; And I will turn my hand against Ekron, And the residue of the Philistines shall perish. The Lord, Jehovah, hath said it.
9 Hahoi BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, Taire kho teh hmaunawngha reira lawkkamnae pâkuem hoeh. Paung e tami abuemlah naw hah, Edom bawi koe a poe e yon kathum touh laipalah, yon pali touh dawk reknae na khang laipalah na awm mahoeh.
Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Tyre, And for four, will I not turn away its punishment; Because they delivered up all their captives to Edom, And remembered not the brotherly covenant.
10 Taire kho rapan dawkvah hmai ka tha vaiteh, imnaw ka kak sak han.
But I will send a fire on the wall of Tyre, Which shall devour her palaces.
11 Hahoi BAWIPA Cathut ni a dei e teh, Edom ram teh, pahrennae lungthin ka panguep teh hmaunawngha hah tahloi hoi pâlei e yon, lungkhueknae hoi pout laipalah, ao teh, pout laipalah kâtarannae yon kathum touh dueng laipalah yon pali touh dawkvah reknae na khang laipalah na awm mahoeh.
Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Edom, And for four, will I not turn away his punishment; For he pursued his brother with the sword, And cast off all pity, And his anger tore perpetually; Yea, he kept his wrath forever.
12 Teman kho dawk hmai ka tha vaiteh, Bozrah kho e imnaw pueng hah a kak han.
But I will send a fire upon Teman. Which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.
13 Hahoi BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, Ammon ram e taminaw ni amamae hmuen hah kaw sak hanelah, camo ka vawn e, Gilead ram e napui camo kanengnaw e vonnaw hah vak a khei awh e yon kathum touh dueng laipalah, yon pali touh dawk kaie reknae na khang laipalah na awm mahoeh.
Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, And for four, will I not turn away their punishment; For they ripped up the women with child of Gilead, That they might enlarge their border.
14 Rabbah khopui rapan hmaisawi vaiteh, imnaw ka kak sak han. Tarantuk nah hnin vah, hramkinae, kho hoi tûilî a thonae hnin nah palek e lah ao han.
But I will kindle a fire on the wall of Rabbah, Which shall devour her palaces, Amid the war-shout in the day of battle, In a whirlwind in the day of the storm.
15 Ahnimae siangpahrang koehoi kamtawng vaiteh, a bawinaw hai man lah ao han telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
Their king shall go into captivity, He and his princes together, saith Jehovah.
