Amos 3
1 Oe Isarel miphunnaw Izip ram hoi kai ni na tâcokhai e miphun abuemlah nangmanaw hah, kai BAWIPA ni ka dei e lawk hah thai awh haw.
Heare this worde that the Lord pronounceth against you, O children of Israel, euen against the whole familie which I brought vp from the land of Egypt, saying,
2 Talai van dawk kaawm e miphun abuemlah dawk hoi ka panue e nangmouh miphun buet touh dueng hah kai ni na coe dawkvah, nangmae yon kaawm e pueng hah, kai ni lawkkaceng han.
You onely haue I knowen of all the families of the earth: therefore I will visite you for all your iniquities.
3 Tami ka hni touh ni lungkangingnae awm laipalah cungtalah kahlawng cei thai han maw.
Can two walke together except they bee agreed?
4 Sendek ni kei hoehpawiteh, ratu thung vah a huk han namaw. Sendek ni banghai kei hoehpawiteh, a kâkhu dawk hoi a cairing han namaw.
Will a lion roare in ye forest, when he hath no pray? or wil a lions whelpe cry out of his den, if he haue taken nothing?
5 Talai dawk tangkam patung hoehpawiteh, tava hah kâman han namaw. Patung e tangkam dawkvah, banghai na hmu hoeh roukrak na patung e hah na lo han namaw.
Can a birde fall in a snare vpon the earth, where no fouler is? or will he take vp the snare from the earth, and haue taken nothing at all?
6 Kho thung dawk mongka tum pawiteh kho thung taminaw ni taket laipalah awm mahoeh namaw. BAWIPA ni a sak e laipalah rucatnae buetbuet touh kho thung vah a pha han namaw.
Or shall a trumpet be blowen in the citie, and the people be not afraide? or shall there be euil in a citie, and the Lord hath not done it?
7 Atangcalah, Bawipa Jehovah ni amae a san Profetnaw koe pâpho laipalah, bangpatet e hno hai sak hoeh.
Surely the Lord God will doe nothing, but he reueileth his secrete vnto his seruantes the Prophets.
8 Sendek a huk torei teh, apihai taket laipalah awm mahoeh. Bawipa Jehovah ni lawk dei hoehpawiteh, apinimaw a pâpho thai han.
The lyon hath roared: who will not bee afraide? the Lord God hath spoken: who can but prophecie?
9 Ashdod kho imnaw hoi Izip ram imnaw koe kamthang a dei hane teh, Samaria mon dawkvah a kamkhueng teh, Samaria kho thung dawkvah, ruengruengtinae kho thung dawk pacekpahleknae ka khang e naw, khenhaw.
Proclayme in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the lande of Egypt, and saye, Assemble your selues vpon the mountaines of Samaria: so beholde the great tumultes in the middes thereof, and the oppressed in the middes thereof.
10 Khothung e taminaw teh, kahawi e phung hah panuek hoeh. Thama lah a lawp e hnonaw hah im kahawinaw dawk a pâtung awh telah BAWIPA Cathut ni ati.
For they knowe not to doe right, sayth the Lord: they store vp violence, and robbery in their palaces.
11 Hatdawkvah, Bawipa Jehovah ni ati e teh, tarannaw ni Samaria ram hah a ven awh vaiteh, nange taran hawinae a pabo vaiteh, im kahawinaw hah a raphoe awh han.
Therefore thus saith the Lord God, An aduersary shall come euen rounde about the countrey, and shall bring downe thy strength from thee, and thy palaces shalbe spoyled.
12 BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, tu ka khoum ni sendek e pahni dawk e khok kahni, nahoeh pawiteh, a hna tangawn hah, a rasa pouh e patetlah Samaria kho e ikhun, dawk ka ip e, Damaskas kho hni phai van ka tahung e Isarel miphunnaw hah, rasa awh han rah.
Thus saieth the Lord, As the shephearde taketh out of the mouth of the lyon two legges, or a piece of an eare: so shall the children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in Damascus, as in a couche.
13 Ransahu Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei e lawk teh, thai awh nateh Jakop e miphunnaw koe patuen na dei pouh hane teh,
Heare, and testifie in the house of Iaakob, saith the Lord God, the God of hostes.
14 Atangcalah, Isarel miphunnaw e a yonnaw hah lawkcengnae hnin dawk, Bethel thuengnae hah kai ni lawk ka ceng vaiteh, thuengnae a kinaw hah, ka raboung vaiteh talai dawk a bo han.
Surely in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel vpon him, I wil also visite the altars of Beth-el, and the hornes of the altar shall be broken off, and fall to the ground.
15 Kasik imnaw hoi kawmpoi imnaw hah, kai ni ka raphoe vaiteh, kasaino hoi sak e imnaw hai koung a rawk han. Im kahawinaw hai apout han telah BAWIPA ni atipouh.
And I wil smite the winter house with the sommer house, and the houses of yuorie shall perish, and the great houses shalbe consumed, sayth the Lord.
