Micah 6
1 Hear now what the LORD says: “Arise, plead your case before the mountains, and let the hills hear your voice.
BOEIPA loh a thui te hnatun uh laeh. Thoo tlang te ho laeh. Na ol te som long khaw ya saeh.
2 Hear, O mountains, the LORD’s indictment, you enduring foundations of the earth. For the LORD has a case against His people, and He will argue it against Israel:
Tlang rhoek neh diklai yung cak loh BOEIPA kah tuituknah te hnatun saeh. BOEIPA kah tuituknah he a pilnam taeng neh Israel taengah a thui coeng.
3 ‘My people, what have I done to you? Testify against Me how I have wearied you!
Ka pilnam nang taengah balae ka saii tih nang te metlam kang ngae? Kamah taengah thui lah.
4 For I brought you up from the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the house of slavery. I sent Moses before you, as well as Aaron and Miriam.
Nang te Egypt kho lamloh kang khuen tih sal rhoek imkhui lamloh nang kan lat. Na mikhmuh ah Moses, Aaron neh Miriam kan tueih.
5 My people, remember what Balak king of Moab counseled and what Balaam son of Beor answered. Remember your journey from Shittim to Gilgal, so that you may acknowledge the righteousness of the LORD.’”
Ka pilnam aw, Moab manghai Balak loh a uen te khaw, Beor capa Balaam loh anih a doo te poek uh laeh. Te daengah ni Shittim lamloh Gilgal duela BOEIPA kah duengnah a ming.
6 With what shall I come before the LORD when I bow before the God on high? Should I come to Him with burnt offerings, with year-old calves?
Ba nen lae BOEIPA ka doe vetih hmuensang Pathen taengah ka duengyai eh. Amah te hmueihhlutnah neh, sael kum khat ca nen a ka doe eh?
7 Would the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousand rivers of oil? Shall I present my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
BOEIPA loh tutal thawngkhat neh, situi soklong thawngrha nen khaw a moeithen aya? Ka caming te ka boekoeknah dongah, ka bungko thaihtae te ka hinglu kah tholhnah dongah ka paek thai aya?
8 He has shown you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you but to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?
Hlang nang taengah melae aka then, nang kah te BOEIPA loh balae a toem ti khaw, tiktamnah te rhep saii ham khaw, sitlohnah te lungnah ham khaw, na Pathen taengah kodo la pongpa ham khaw ha puen coeng.
9 The voice of the LORD calls out to the city (and it is sound wisdom to fear Your name): “Heed the rod and the One who ordained it.
BOEIPA ol tah khopuei taengah pang coeng. Lungming cueihnah tah na ming te a hmuh. Hnatun uh lah, caitueng neh unim a tuentah coeng?
10 Can I forget any longer, O house of the wicked, the treasures of wickedness and the short ephah, which is accursed?
Halang im neh halangnah thakvoh te hlihloeh tih cangnoek pawtrhawt te kosi a hong thil pueng aya?
11 Can I excuse dishonest scales or bags of false weights?
Halangnah cooi ham neh hlangthai palat kah coilung sungsa te ka cim sak aya?
12 For the wealthy of the city are full of violence, and its residents speak lies; their tongues are deceitful in their mouths.
A hlanglen rhoek kongah kuthlahnah cung uh tih a khuikah khosa rhoek loh a honghi a thui uh. A ol tah a ka ah palyal uh mai.
13 Therefore I am striking you severely, to ruin you because of your sins.
Te dongah nang ngawn ham neh na tholhnah dongah nang pong sak ham kai loh kan tloh sak.
14 You will eat but not be satisfied, and your hunger will remain with you. What you acquire, you will not preserve; and what you save, I will give to the sword.
Na caak akhaw na hah hae pawt vetih na pongnah he na ko khuiah om ni. Na balkhong dae na loeih hae mahpawh. Na loeih cakhaw cunghang taengla ka paek ni.
15 You will sow but not reap; you will press olives but not anoint yourselves with oil; you will tread grapes but not drink the wine.
Na tuh dae na at mahpawh. Olive te na neet cakhaw situi na hluk hae mahpawh. Misur thai na khueh akhaw misurtui na o mahpawh.
16 You have kept the statutes of Omri and all the practices of Ahab’s house; you have followed their counsel. Therefore I will make you a desolation, and your inhabitants an object of contempt; you will bear the scorn of the nations.”
Omri kah khosing neh Ahab imkhui kah khoboe boeih te a dawn coeng. Amih kah cilkhih dongah na pongpa uh. Te dongah ni kai loh nang te imsuep la kang khueh. Tedae rhoek khosa rhoek kah thuithetnah neh ka pilnam kah kokhahnah ni na phueih uh eh.
