< Amos 2 >
1 Thus says the Lord: For three wicked deeds of Moab, and for four, I will not convert him, in so far as he has burned the bones of the king of Idumea, all the way to ashes.
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye. “Moab mite talen man louva ka lha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chun amahon chonset abol bol jeng un, anga dehpouvin ahi. Amahon Edom lengpa gu leh chang jouse meiyin ahal un, vutvam aso sah tauvin ahi.
2 And I will send a fire onto Moab, and it will devour the buildings of Kerioth. And Moab will die with a noise, with the blare of a trumpet.
Hijeh’a chu keiman Moab gamsung meiya kahal lhah ding, chuleh Kerioth khopi kulpi ho ka suhmang ding ahi. Chuleh Moab mite chu gal’a ka leh mao na thum jeju lah’a, agalmi hon saki amut denuva thigam ding ahiuve”, ati.
3 And I will destroy the judge in their midst, and I will execute all his leaders with him, says the Lord.
Chuteng keiman alengpau ka suhmang ding, chuleh leng chapa teu jouse jong ka suhgam ding ahi,” tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
4 Thus says the Lord: For three wicked deeds of Judah, and for four, I will not convert him, in so far as he has rejected the law of the Lord and has not kept his commandments. For their idols, which their fathers followed, have deceived them.
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Keiman Judah talen manlouva ka lha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu amahon chonset abol bol jengun anga deh pouvin ahi. Amahon Pakai peh chondan thuhil don louvin akoijun, chuleh athupeh jong anitdeh pouvin ahi. Apu apateu vamang na jou leh nal’a kilheplhahna ah avahmang gam tauvin ahi.
5 And I will send a fire onto Judah, and it will devour the buildings of Jerusalem.
Hijeh’a chu keiman meiya Judah kahallhah ding, chuleh Jerusalem khopi kulpi ho jong kasuhmang ding ahi,” ati.
6 Thus says the Lord: For three wicked deeds of Israel, and for four, I will not convert him, in so far as he has sold the just for silver and the poor for shoes.
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Keiman Israel talen man louva kalha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu, amahon chonset abol bol jeng un angadeh pouvin ahi. Amahon midih jong dangka lhomcha man in ajoh doh’un, chuleh tahlel vaichate jong kengchot to-khat toh aki lheh tauve.
7 They grind the heads of the poor into the dust of the earth, and they divert the way of the humble. And the son, as well as his father, have gone to the same girl, so that they outrage my holy name.
Amahon tahlel gentheite leivui lah’a achonlut nun, chuleh vaichate jong lampam’a asondoh un ahi. Apa leh achapa jong numei khat kom’a aga lumkhom ji lhon in, keima mintheng chu asuboh tauvin ahi.
8 And they have lain on garments taken in pledge next to every altar. And they drank the wine of the damned in the house of their God.
Pathen houna maicham phung dung’a chun, aleiba teuvin, bat sahdoh kah’a ding’a apeh’u, ponsil ho akisil’un akijam leuve. Chuleh a Pathen’u houin sunga jong, thudihlou tah’a mi agap nau Lengpitwi adon uvin ahi.
9 Yet I exterminated the Amorites before their face, whose height was like the height of cedars, and whose strength was like the oak. And I crushed his fruit from above and his roots below.
Amavang, kamite masang tah’a, Cedar thing banga sang leh Oak thing banga tah, Amor mite ana suhmang peh chu keima kahi. Keiman thingbah lah’a aga jouse jong ka sugam in, chuleh noi lam’a ajung geijin ka kaldoh in ahi.
10 It is I who caused you to ascend from the land of Egypt, and I led you in the wilderness for forty years, so that you might possess the land of the Amorite.
Egypt gam’a kon’a nahin pui doh uva chu keima kahi, chuleh kum somli jen nelphai gamthip’a nahinpuileu chu keima kahi. Hijeh’a chu nanghon Amor mite gamsung naloden theiju ahi.
11 And I stirred up prophets from your sons, and Nazirites from your young men. Is it not so, sons of Israel, says the Lord?
Keiman na chapa teu phabep themgaovin ka pansah in, chuleh adangho jong Nazir ka hisah e. Vo Israel kamite, nangman hichehi ahipoi tia na seithei ding ham?” tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
12 Yet you would offer wine to the Nazirites, and you would command the prophets, saying: “Do not prophesy.”
Ahivang in, nangman Nazir ho jong, ju na donsah in chonset na bolsah e. Chuleh themgao ho jong gao thu seilou ding’in naphoh thiptai.
13 Behold, I will creak under you, just as a wagon creaks that is laden with hay.
Hijeh’a chu, keiman thohgim tah’a kalha ding, bongkang changpal dimset kiheng’a uh jen jun bang’a kalha ding, kasuh nem ding nahi.
14 And flight will perish from the swift, and the strong will not maintain his strength, and the healthy will not save his life.
Nalah uva akal jang pen jong jammang deh lou ding, chuleh atha hat pen jong pang jou dehlou ding ahi. Thahattah’a galsat hon jong, ahinkho akihuh doh joulou diu ahi.
15 And one holding the bow will not stand firm, and the swift of foot will not be saved, and the rider on the horse will not save his life.
Thalpi kap’a pangho jong ding det joulou diu, chuleh Sakol chung touthem ho jong, amaho leh amaho kihuhdoh jou lou diu ahi.
16 And the stout of heart among the strong will flee away naked in that day, says the Lord.
Hiche nikho chuleh gal hang pen’a panghon jong, agal manchah’u ase lhah diu chuleh ahindoh nadiuva jamdiu ahi”, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
