< Malachi 2 >
1 And now, O ye priests, this commandment is to you.
Tun thempu hon ngaiuvin hiche thupeh hi nangho dinga ahi.
2 If you will not hear, and if you will not lay it to heart, to give glory to my name, saith the Lord of hosts: I will send poverty upon you, and will curse your blessings, yea I will curse them, because you have not laid it to heart.
Kasei hi ngai’unlang ka min jabolna ding in lunggel thah na nei tan, tin hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin aseije. Achuti louleh na chunguva sapsetna nasatah kalhunsah ding ahi. Tahbeh in keiman ka sapsetsa nahitauve, ajeh chu nanghon kagihnau chu na gelkhoh pouve.
3 Behold, I will cast the shoulder to you, and I will scatter upon your face the dung of your solemnities, and it shall take you away with it.
Keiman na chilhahteu ka engbol a thilboh ho chu na maichanguva ka thekhum ding ahi. Chu tengleh na thilbol ho lah’a ka selut ding nahiuve.
4 And you shall know that I sent you this commandment, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the Lord of hosts.
Chutengleh nanghon Levite toh nakitepnau achejom theina dinga gihsalna vopsah chu keima kahi chu nahin hetdoh ding’u ahi, tin hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin aseije.
5 My covenant was with him of life and peace: and I gave him fear: and he feared me, and he was afraid before my name.
Levite toh kitepna ka nanei nalopen chu na hinkhouva chamna nanei theina diuva kana peh’u ahi. Hiche hin amaho’a konna jana leh ginna kachantheina ding a hin amahon jana lentah eina peuvin kamin loupina dingin ana ding chahkheh’un ahi.
6 The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace, and in equity, and turned many away from iniquity.
Amahon keija konna amu’u thupeh ho chu amiteu anape sonnun ahi. Amahon jou le tah chonna ana neipouve, amahon keidei lampi ana chepiuvin phatna leh chonphatnaa konin mi tamtah ahin le puidoh kit’un ahi.
7 For the lips of the priest shall keep knowledge, and they shall seek the law at his mouth: because he is the angel of the Lord of hosts.
Pathena konna chihna leh hetthem theina hi thempu ho kom’a konna hung potdoh ding hitia chu mipi ho chu amaho kom’a thuhil ngaicha a cheji diu ahi. Ajehchu amaho hi hatchungnung Pakai thuhil pole ho ahiuve.
8 But you have departed out of the way, and have caused many to stumble at the law: you have made void the covenant of Levi, saith the Lord of hosts.
Ahin nangho thempuhon Pathen lampi na peltauve nang ho thuhila konin mi tachonsea alhalut tauvin ahi. Nanghon Levite toh ka kitepna chu na suboh tauvin ahi, tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin aseijin ahi.
9 Therefore have I also made you contemptible, and base before all people, as you have not kept my ways, and have accepted persons in the law.
Hijeh achu keiman nang ho hi vannoi mite ho mitmu a kidah umtah leh noise umtah ka hisah nahitauve. Ajeh chu nanghon ka thu nangai pouvin, ka thuhil dungjuijin na chon pouvin mipi lah a sihnei langneina in na natongun ahi.
10 Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why then doth every one of us despise his brother, violating the covenant of our fathers?
Eiho hi mipa khat cheh ihiu hilou ham? Eiho hi Pathen khatseh sem ihi louvu ham? Chuti ahileh iti danna eiho leh eiho ikilhep lhahuva ipu ipateu Pathen toh iki tepnau chu i-suhkehu hitam?
11 Juda hath transgressed, and abomination hath been committed in Israel, and in Jerusalem: for Juda hath profaned the holiness of the Lord, which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange God.
Judah akitah poi, Jerusalem leh Israelte lah a thil dihlou tah ahung lhung tai. Juda miten semthu milim hou numeiho a kichenpiuvin Pakai muntheng a suboh tauve.
12 The Lord will cut off the man that hath done this, both the master, and the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering to the Lord of hosts.
Hijeh chun Pakaiyin hitobang bol ho jouse chuleh hatchungnungpen Pakai henga thilto dihlou hin choi ho jouse hi Israel namlaha konin amaho hi hatchungnung Pakaiyin ka chomkhen tan ahi.
13 And this again have you done, you have covered the altar of the Lord with tears, with weeping, and bellowing, so that I have no more a regard to sacrifice, neither do I accept any atonement at your hands.
Chuleh nanghon thildang nabol’u jong aum’e. Pakaiyin na thiltou anah sahlou jeh leh alunglhai lou jeh, asan thei lou jeh'in Pakai maicham chung chu na mitlhi na chupsahin kap leh lunghem tahin na khoisa in ahi.
14 And you have said: For what cause? Because the Lord hath been witness between thee, and the wife of thy youth, whom thou hast despised: yet she was thy partner, and the wife of thy covenant.
Nangman na seijin, “Pakaiyin ipi dinga ka taona hi asan lou ham nati.” Keiman seipeh ing kate! Ajeh chu na khandonlaija na jinei a chu ahetoh a Pakai pang ahi. Ahinlah amanu naji hina a na kichen lhonna na kitepna lhon dungjuija kitah taha aum vang'in nang vang kitahlou tahin na hung chon tan ahi.
15 Did not one make her, and she is the residue of his spirit? And what doth one seek, but the seed of God? Keep then your spirit, and despise not the wife of thy youth.
Pakaiyin naji toh pumkhat hidinga na goplhon hilou ham? Tahsa leh lhagaova ama a nahi lou ham? Chuleh aman adei chu ipi ham? Na kigop lhonna pat Pathenna nahi lhon hilou ham? Hijeh chun phatah in kingaiton lang na khandonlaija na jinu a chun kitah tahin um'in, ati.
16 When thou shalt hate her put her away, saith the Lord the God of Israel: but iniquity shall cover his garment, saith the Lord of hosts, keep your spirit, and despise not.
Ajeh chu keiman kida hi ka mah ahi! tin Israel Pathen in aseijin ahi. Na jinu chu na da leh ama chunga chu engsetna nalhut khum ahitai, tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin asei’e. Hijeh chun ki tomla in na jinu chunga na kitepna lhon sukeh hihin.
17 You have wearied the Lord with your words, and you said: Wherein have we wearied him? In that you say: Every one that doth evil, is good in the sight of the Lord, and such please him: or surely where is the God of judgment?
Na kampaovin na Pakai chu suboi hihun; nang hon iti kasuhboi uvem? tiuvin nate: thilse bol hi Pakai mitmua thilpha ahin, ama lunglhaina ahi natiu hin Pakai chu nalung phatmosahu ahi, thu adihtaha tan Pathen chu um hinam natiu hin, nalung phatmosahu ahije.
