< Amos 6 >

1 Woe to those at ease in Zion and those secure on Mount Samaria, the distinguished ones of the foremost nation, to whom the house of Israel comes.
Zion kho dawk karoumcalah kaawm e, Samaria min kâuepnaw hoi miphun thung dawk a lathueng poung telah kaw e, Isarel imthung dawk kâhnai lah kaawm e taminaw teh, a yaw ka thout e lah ao.
2 Cross over to Calneh and see; go from there to the great Hamath; then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are you better than these kingdoms? Is their territory larger than yours?
Kalneh kho lah cet nateh khenhaw. Hote kho dawk hoi Hamath kho lah, Filistinnaw a onae Gath kho koe lah cet awh. Hotnaw teh, hete uknaeramnaw hlak hoe ahawi maw. Ahnimouh a onae teh, nangmouh na onae hlak hoe akaw maw.
3 You dismiss the day of calamity and bring near a reign of violence.
Ka mathout e hnin hah tahruet awh nateh, kahmanhoeh e lawkcangnae tungkhung teng ka hnai sak e,
4 You lie on beds inlaid with ivory, and lounge upon your couches. You dine on lambs from the flock and calves from the stall.
kasaino ikhun dawk ka ip e, tungkhungkasaw dawk ka yan e, tucahu dawk hoi tucanaw, maito e dokko dawk hoi maitocanaw a la teh ka cat e,
5 You improvise songs on the harp like David and invent your own musical instruments.
ratoung kueng e kâtâ nalaihoi la ka sak e, tumkhawng katha hoi, Devit ni a sak e patetlah ka sak e,
6 You drink wine by the bowlful and anoint yourselves with the finest oils, but you fail to grieve over the ruin of Joseph.
misurtui hah manang dawk hoi a nei awh teh, aphu patawpoung e hmuitui a kâhluk awh teh, Joseph e roedeng khangnae dawk a lung ka mathout hoeh e naw,
7 Therefore, you will now go into exile as the first of the captives, and your feasting and lounging will come to an end.
ahnimanaw teh, hmaloe man e a khang e naw hoi cungtalah a cei awh han. Yon na laihoi kaawmnaw, ahnimae pawinaw hai kahma han.
8 The Lord GOD has sworn by Himself—the LORD, the God of Hosts, has declared: “I abhor Jacob’s pride and detest his citadels, so I will deliver up the city and everything in it.”
Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei e teh Cathut teh amahoima thoekâbo e patetlah Jakop e kârasangnae hah ka panuet teh, ahnie im hah ka hmuhma teh, khopui hoi kho thung kaawm e pueng hah kai ni ka pahnawt han.
9 And if there are ten men left in one house, they too will die.
Im buet touh dawkvah tami hra touh kaawm nakunghai a due awh han.
10 And when the relative who is to burn the bodies picks them up to remove them from the house, he will call to one inside, “Is anyone else with you?” “None,” that person will answer. “Silence,” the relative will retort, “for the name of the LORD must not be invoked.”
Imthungkhu lah kaawm e, hmai hoi pâeng lah kaawm e teh, im dawk hoi a ro hah rasa vaiteh, ceikhai torei teh, im dawk kaawm e tami hah kaw vaiteh, nang koe buetbuet touh bang kaawm e ao rah na ou, awm hoeh telah bout ati han. Ka hrawm e tami hai duem awm. BAWIPA e min teh dei hane kâ awm hoeh telah ati awh han.
11 For the LORD gives a command: “The great house will be smashed to pieces, and the small house to rubble.”
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA Cathut e kâ lah ao dawkvah, impui hah raphoe vaiteh im kathounge hai kâbawng sak han.
12 “Do horses gallop on the cliffs? Does one plow the sea with oxen? But you have turned justice into poison and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood—
Marang teh lungphen van a yawng thai maw. Tami ni talung dawkvah maito hoi kanawk panuek han maw. Nangmouh ni kalan lah lawkcengnae hah duenae sue patetlah lannae a paw hah kakhat poung e thingkung lah na coung sak awh toe.
13 you who rejoice in Lo-debar and say, ‘Did we not take Karnaim by our own strength?’
Banglahai kaawm hoeh e dawk kâoup teh, na lung ahawi awh, maimouh teh mae thaonae hoi nahoehmaw kâ tawn awh toe telah ouk dei awh nahoehmaw.
14 For behold, I will raise up a nation against you, O house of Israel,” declares the LORD, the God of Hosts, “and they will oppress you from Lebo-hamath to the Brook of the Arabah.”
Atangcalah, Oe Isarel imthungnaw, nangmouh koe lah miphun buet touh ka thaw sak vaiteh, hote miphun ni Hamath kho lam dawk hoi kamtawng vaiteh kahrawng dawk kaawm e palang totouh, nangmouh teh na pacekpahlek awh han telah ransahu BAWIPA Cathut ni ati.
