Mikah 4

1 A hnukteng e tueng dawk, BAWIPA im a onae mon teh, monsomnaw dawkvah ka tawm vaiteh ka caksak han. Tami pueng teh hote mon koe a kamkhueng awh han.

But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow to it.

2 Miphunnaw pueng ni hai tho awh haw, BAWIPA mon dawk, Cathut e mon, Jakop Cathut e im dawk luen a sei, lamthungnaw hah na patue, na cangkhai awh vaiteh, maimouh ni a khokhnuk hah dawn awh han toe telah a cei laihoi a dei awh han. A lawk teh Zion mon dawk hoi thoseh, Cathut Lawk teh Jerusalem khopui koehoi thoseh, a tâco han.

And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

3 BAWIPA ni miphunnaw rahak vah lawkceng vaiteh, ahlanae koe kaawm ni teh athakaawme miphunnaw hah a yue han. Ahnimae tahloi pueng teh thunha lah thoseh, tahroenaw teh ramalongkawi lah thoseh, a dei pouh han. Ram hoi ram hai kâtuk awh mahoeh toe. Taran tuknae hai kamtu awh mahoeh toe.

And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

4 Tami pueng ni amae misurkung, amae thaibunglung rahim a tahung awh han. Taki kawi buet touh hai awm mahoeh toe telah ransahu BAWIPA ni a dei.

But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of the LORD of hosts has spoken it.

5 Miphun pueng ni amamae cathut teh ouk a bawk awh. Hatei, maimouh teh mamae BAWIPA Cathut e min hah pout laipalah kângue awh han.

For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever.

6 BAWIPA ni telah a dei, hatnae tueng nah, khokkhem e naw ka kaw han, pâlei lah kaawm e tami, rucatnae kâhmo sak e taminaw hah ka kamkhueng sak han.

In that day, says the LORD, will I assemble her that halts, and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that I have afflicted;

7 Khokkhemnaw kacawi sak han, pâlei e taminaw hah thakasaipounge miphun lah ka coung sak han. BAWIPA ni Zion mon dawk ahnimouh teh atu hoi kamtawng vaiteh pout laipalah a uk han.

And I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast far off a strong nation: and the LORD shall reign over them in mount Zion from now on, even for ever.

8 Oe, imrasang, zion canu rapanim, nang ni na uk han, ahmaloe e kâ na tawn e bout na tawn han, a uknaeram teh Jerusalem canu kut dawk bout a pha han.

And you, O tower of the flock, the strong hold of the daughter of Zion, to you shall it come, even the first dominion; the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem.

9 Bangkongmaw atu puenghoi na ka. Nang thung siangpahrang buet touh hai awm hoeh nahoehmaw. Pouknae kapoekung kahmakata na ou. Camo ka khe e napui patetlah reithai na khang toung bo aw.

Now why do you cry out aloud? is there no king in you? is your counselor perished? for pangs have taken you as a woman in travail.

10 Oe, Zion canu, camo ka khe e napui patetlah reithainae na khang teh, ca khe hanlah tha kâueng haw. Khopui dawk hoi nang teh na tâco vaiteh, kahrawng vah na o han. Babilon khopui totouh na cei han. Hote khopui dawk na hlout han. Hote khopui dawk BAWIPA ni taran kut dawk hoi na ratang han.

Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail: for now shall you go forth out of the city, and you shall dwell in the field, and you shall go even to Babylon; there shall you be delivered; there the LORD shall redeem you from the hand of your enemies.

11 Atu miphunnaw ni, Zion khopui teh khin lawi naseh, ahni dawk maimae lungngainae kuep naseh telah nangmouh hoi kâtaran lah a kamkhueng awh vaiteh a dei awh han.

Now also many nations are gathered against you, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye look on Zion.

12 Hatei, BAWIPA e pouknae hoi noenae panuek thai awh hoeh. Cabongnaw cangkatinnae dawk pâkhueng e patetlah hote taminaw a pâkhueng.

But they know not the thoughts of the LORD, neither understand they his counsel: for he shall gather them as the sheaves into the floor.

13 Oe, Zion canu thaw la teh katin haw, na ki hah sum hoi thoseh, khoksamennaw hah rahum hoi thoseh, ka sak han. Nang ni miphunnaw pueng vitpatit lah na katin han. Ahnimae hnopai ka la pouh vaiteh talai pueng be ka uk e BAWIPA hah ka poe han.

Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion: for I will make your horn iron, and I will make your hoofs brass: and you shall beat in pieces many people: and I will consecrate their gain to the LORD, and their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
