Amos 3
1 Hear you this word, O house of Israel, which the Lord has spoken concerning you, and against the whole family whom I brought up out of the land of Egypt, saying,
Israel ca nangmih taeng neh Egypt khohmuen lamloh kang khuen van bangla, koca boeih taengah BOEIPA loh he ol a thui he hnatun uh.
2 You especially have I known out of all the families of the earth: therefore will I take vengeance upon you for all your sins.
Diklai koca boeih lamloh nang bueng te kan ming. Te dongah namah kathaesainah boeih te namah taengah kan cawh ni.
3 Shall two walk together at all, if they do not know one another?
A tuentah pawt atah rhenten cet rhoi noek a?
4 Will a lion roar out of his thicket if he has no prey? will a [lion's] whelp utter his voice at all out of his lair, if he have taken nothing?
Duup kah sathueng a kawk vaengah amah ham maeh om het mahpawt nim? A khuisaek kah te a tuuk pawt atah sathueng loh a ol a huel bal nim?
5 Will a bird fall on the earth without a fowler? will a snare be taken up from the earth without having taken anything?
Anih hamla hlaeh a om pawt lalah vaa ke diklai kah pael dongah tla aya? Diklai lamkah pael loh a boh phoeiah tah a tuuk rhoe a tuuk moenih a?
6 Shall the trumpet sound in the city, and the people not be alarmed? shall there be evil in a city which the Lord has not wrought?
Khopuei ah tuki a ueng lalah pataeng pilnam he lakueng het mahpawt nim? Khopuei khuiah yoethae a pai lalah pataeng BOEIPA loh saii het mahpawt nim?” a ti.
7 For the Lord God will do nothing, without revealing instruction to his servants the prophets.
A baecenol te a sal tonghma rhoek taengah a phoe mueh la ka Boeipa Yahovah loh hno a saii noek moenih.
8 A lion shall roar, and who will not be alarmed? the Lord God has spoken, and who will not prophesy?
Sathueng a kawk lalah ulong a rhih pawt eh? Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui lalah unim aka tonghma pawt pai eh?
9 Proclaim it to the regions amongst the Assyrians, and to the regions of Egypt, and say, Gather yourselves to the mountain of Samaria, and behold many wonderful things in the midst of it, and the oppression that is in it.
Ashdod kah impuei taeng neh Egypt khohmuen kah impuei taengah yaak sak. Te vaengah, “Samaria tlang ah tingtun uh,” ti nah. So uh lah, a khui kah soekloeknah neh a laklung kah hnaemtaeknah tah yet coeng.
10 And she knew not what things would come against her, says the Lord, [even] those that store up wrong and misery in their countries.
BOEIPA kah olphong, oldueng vai ham khaw ming uh pawh. A impuei ah kuthlahnah neh rhoelrhanah a kael uh.
11 Therefore thus says the Lord God; O Tyre, your land shall be made desolate round about [you]; and he shall bring down your strength out of you, and your countries shall be spoiled.
Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Rhal neh khohmuen kaepvai long khaw nang te n'suntlak thil vetih na sarhi neh na impuei te a poelyoe ni.
12 Thus says the Lord; As when a shepherd rescues from the mouth of a lion two legs or a piece of an ear, so shall be drawn forth the children of Israel who dwell in Samaria in the presence of [a foreign] tribe, and in Damascus.
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Boiva aka dawn long tah sathueng ka dongkah te a kho rhoi mai khaw, a hna vang mai khaw, a huul pah bangla Samaria kah baiphaih kil neh Damasku soengca ah aka ngol Israel ca rhoek te a huul uh van ni.
13 Hear, O you priests, and testify to the house of Jacob, says the Lord God Almighty.
Hnatun uh lamtah Jakob imkhui te rhalrhing sakuh. He tah ka Boeipa Yahovah, caempuei Pathen kah olphong ni.
14 For in the day wherein I shall take vengeance of the sins of Israel upon him, I will also take vengeance on the altars of Bethel: and the horns of the altar shall be broken down, and they shall fall upon the ground.
A soah Israel kah boekoeknah ka cawh hnin ah ngawn tah Bethel hmueihtuk te ka cawh bal ni. Te vaengah hmueihtuk ki khaw tlawt vetih diklai la yalh ni.
15 I will crush and strike the turreted-house upon the summer-house; and the ivory-houses shall be destroyed, and many other houses also, says the Lord.
Te phoeiah sikca im khaw khohal im neh ka top ni. Te vaengah vueino im rhoek te poo uh vetih im len rhoek khaw khoengvoep uh ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni.
