< Amos 2 >

1 Thus sayth the Lord, For three transgressions of Moab, and for foure, I will not turne to it, because it burnt the bones of the King of Edom into lime.
Angraeng mah, Moab prae zaehaih thumto hoi palito pacoengah, Edom siangpahrang ih ahuh hmai hoi a thlaek pongah, danpaekhaih to ka zuk let mak ai, tiah thuih.
2 Therefore will I send a fire vpon Moab, and it shall deuoure the palaces of Kerioth, and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of a trumpet.
Moab nuiah hmai ka patoeh han, to hmai mah Kerioth ih angraeng ohhaih ahmuennawk to kang tih; Moab loe misatuk hanghaih lok hoi mongkah lok amsong naah dueh tih.
3 And I will cut off the iudge out of the mids thereof, and will slay all the princes thereof with him, sayth the Lord.
Nihcae lokcaek kami to ka hum han, angmah hoi anih ih ukkung angraengnawk to ka hum pae boih han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
4 Thus saith the Lord, For three transgressions of Iudah, and for foure, I will not turne to it, because they haue cast away the Lawe of the Lord, and haue not kept his commandementes, and their lies caused them to erre after the which their fathers haue walked.
Angraeng mah, Judah acaeng zaehaih thumto hoi palito haih pacoengah, Angraeng ih kaalok to nihcae mah patoek o, a paek ih loknawk to pazui o ai pongah, danpaekhaih to ka zuk let mak ai; lok amlaihaih mah nihcae loklam anghmang sak boeh.
5 Therefore will I send a fire vpon Iudah, and it shall deuoure the palaces of Ierusalem.
To pongah Judah nuiah hmai ka patoeh han, to hmai mah Jerusalem ih angraeng ohhaih ahmuennawk to kang tih.
6 Thus sayth the Lord, For three transgressions of Israel, and for foure, I will not turne to it, because they solde the righteous for siluer and the poore for shooes.
Angraeng mah, Israel ih zaehaih thumto hoi palito haih pacoengah, katoeng kami to sum kanglung hoiah a zawh o moe, amtang kaminawk khokpanai bum maeto hoiah a zawh o pongah, danpaekhaih ka zuk let mak ai, tiah thuih.
7 They gape ouer the head of the poore, in the dust of the earth, and peruert the wayes of the meeke: and a man and his father will goe in to a mayde to dishonour mine holy Name.
Nihcae mah amtang kaminawk ih lu to maiphu phuih pae o, poek pahnaem kaminawk to loklam amkhraeng o sak: Kai ih ahmin amhnongsak hanah, ampa hoi a capa loe saning kanawk nongpata maeto khaeah nawn to caeh hoi.
8 And they lye downe vpon clothes layde to pledge by euery altar: and they drinke the wine of the condemned in the house of their God.
Nihcae loe hmaicam kruek ih khukbuen nuiah angsong o moe, minawk khae hoi lak o ih misurtui to angmacae sithaw imthung ah a naek o.
9 Yet destroyed I the Amorite before the, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the okes: notwithstanding I destroyed his fruite from aboue, and his roote from beneath.
Sidar thing baktih kasang, oak thing baktiah kamtak, Amor kaminawk to nihcae hma ah ka hum pae; ranui ih athaih hoi atlim ih tangzun to kam rosak.
10 Also I brought you vp from the land of Egypt, and led you fourtie yeres thorowe the wildernesse, to possesse the land of the Amorite.
Izip prae hoiah kang hoih moe, Amor kaminawk ih prae to paek hanah, saning qui palito thung praezaek ah kang hoih o.
11 And I raysed vp of your sonnes for Prophets, and of your yong men for Nazarites. Is it not euen thus, O ye children of Israel, sayth the Lord?
Thoemto na capanawk to tahmaa baktiah ka suek moe, na thendoengnawk to Nazaret kami baktiah ka suek. Aw nangcae Israel kaminawk, hae lok loe amsoem ai maw? tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
12 But ye gaue the Nazarites wine to drinke, and commanded the Prophetes, saying, Prophecie not.
Toe nangcae mah Nazaret kami to misurtui naek hanah na paek o moe, tahmaanawk khaeah lok to taphong hmah, tiah na naa o.
13 Behold, I am pressed vnder you as a cart is pressed that is full of sheaues.
Khenah, kazit cangqui mah hrang leeng to taeh baktih toengah, nangcae mah kai nang taeh o.
14 Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mightie saue his life.
To pongah cawn na rang o parai cadoeh, na loih o thai mak ai, nang hmaa o tih, thacak kami loe a tha to pathok thaih mak ai, tharah kami doeh angmah hoi angmah to amhlong thai mak ai:
15 Nor he that handleth the bowe, shall stand, and he that is swift of foote, shall not escape, neyther shall he that rideth the horse, saue his life.
kalii kat thaih kami doeh angdoe thai mak ai, lamcaeh karang kami doeh loih thai mak ai, hrang angthueng kami doeh angmah hoi angmah amhlong thai mak ai.
16 And he that is of a mighty courage among the strong men, shall flee away naked in that day, sayth the Lord.
To na niah loe misahoih koek thacak kaminawk doeh bangkrai ah cawn o tih, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
