Micah 1
1 The word of Jehovah that came to Micah the Morashtite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
Judah siangpahrang, Jotham, Ahaz hoi Hezekiah dung ah Moresheth ih Mikah khaeah Angraeng ih lok to angzoh, Samaria hoi Jerusalem kawng pongah anih khaeah hnuksakhaih amtueng.
2 Hear, ye peoples, all of you. Hearken, O earth, and all who are in it, and let the Lord Jehovah be witness against you, the Lord from his holy temple.
Angraeng mah angmah ih kaciim tempul thung hoiah nangcae to misa ah ang suek, tiah Angraeng Sithaw mah hnukung ah oh hanah, aw nangcae kaminawk boih, thaih oh, aw long hoi a thungah kaom kaminawk boih, tahngai oh.
3 For, behold, Jehovah comes forth out of his place, and will come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.
Khenah, Angraeng loe a ohhaih ahmuen hoiah angzoh; anih loe angzo tathuk ueloe, long nui ih kasang ahmuennawk to atii tih.
4 And the mountains shall be melted under him, and the valleys shall be split, as wax before the fire, as waters that are poured down a steep place.
Hmaai ah kamkaw samdai baktih, cathaeng ah kalong tathuk tui baktih toengah, maenawk loe anih hmaa ah amzawt o ueloe, tahawtnawk doeh tanim o tih.
5 All this is for the transgression of Jacob, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? And what are the high places of Judah? Are they not Jerusalem?
Hae hmuennawk boih loe Jakob sakpazaehaih hoi Israel imthung takoh zaehaihnawk pongah ni oh. Jakob sakpazaehaih loe tih aa? Samaria na ai maw? Judah ih kasang ahmuennawk loe tih aa? Jerusalem na ai maw?
6 Therefore I will make Samaria as a heap of the field, and as places for planting vineyards. And I will pour down the stones of it into the valley, and I will uncover the foundations of it.
To pongah Samaria to thlung baktiah ka tapop sut moe, misurkung thlinghaih ahmuen ah ka sak han; vangpui sakhaih thlungnawk to azawn ah ka kraih pae moe, im sak amtonghaih ahmuen to azom ah ka ohsak han.
7 And all her graven images shall be beaten to pieces. And all her wages shall be burned with fire, and I will lay desolate all her idols. For she has gathered them from the wages of a harlot, and to the wage of a harlot they shall return.
To ah kaom sakcop ih krangnawk to pakhoih pae boih tih, a thlai ih hmuennawk doeh hmai hoi thlaek boih tih; krangnawk to ka phraek pae boih han: anih mah tangzat zaw kami khae hoiah to hmuennawk to hak baktih toengah, tangzat zaw kami khaeah paek let tih.
8 For this I will lament and wail. I will go stripped and naked. I will make a wailing like the jackals, and a lamentation like the ostriches.
To tiah oh pongah ka qah moe, palungna ka panoek han, khokpanai ai ah bangkrai ah ka caeh han; tasui baktiah ka uk moe, bukbuh baktiah ka oi han.
9 For her wounds are incurable. For it has come even to Judah. it reaches to the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
Anih ih ahma loe hoih thai mak ai; Judah khaeah phak boeh; kai kaminawk ih khongkha taengah phak boeh moe, Jerusalem ah mataeng doeh a phak boeh.
10 Tell it not in Gath. Weep not at all. I have rolled myself in the dust at Beth-le-aphrah.
Nangcae mah to kawng to Gath ah thui o hmah loe, qah o hmah roe ah; Oprah ih im ah nangmah koeh ah long ah amlet ah.
11 Pass away, O inhabitant of Shaphir, in nakedness and shame. The inhabitant of Zaanan has not come forth. The wailing of Beth-ezel shall take from you the stay of it.
Nangcae Saphir ah kaom kaminawk, bangkrai ah om oh loe, azathaih hoiah om oh; Beth Ezel palung sethaih abomh hanah Zaanan ah kaom kaminawk loe tacawt o ai: Anih mah nangcae han angdoethaih ahmuen paek mak ai.
12 For the inhabitant of Maroth waits anxiously for good, because evil has come down from Jehovah to the gate of Jerusalem.
Maroth ah kaom kami loe hoihhaih atue to a zing; toe Angraeng khae ih sethaih loe Jerusalem khongkha khoek to phak boeh.
13 Bind the chariot to the swift steed, O inhabitant of Lachish. She was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion, for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.
Aw nangcae Lakhish ah kaom kaminawk, hrang lakok qui to zaeng o coek lai ah: Israel zaehaih saksak baktiah, anih mah Zion canu zaehaih saksak hanah loklam to patuek.
14 Therefore thou shall give a parting gift to Moresheth-gath. The houses of Achzib shall be a deceitful thing to the kings of Israel.
To pongah nangcae mah Moreshth Gath khaeah tangqum na paek o tih, Akzip ih imnawk loe Israel siangpahrangnawk alinghaih ah om tih.
15 I will yet bring to thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah, him who shall possess thee. The glory of Israel shall come even to Adullam.
Nangcae Moreshah ah kaom kaminawk, nangcae ih qawktoep han koi kami to kang hoih han; lensawk Israel siangpahrang loe Adullam ah pha tih.
16 Make thee bald, and cut off thy hair for the sons of thy delight. Enlarge thy baldness as the vulture, for they have gone into captivity from thee.
Na palung o ih na caanawk to naeh o ving pongah, lu angmuilum ah sam to aat oh; nihcae loe misong ah laemh o boeh pongah, tahmu baktiah lu angmuilum ah suem oh.
