< 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.
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Moab kah boekoeknah pathum neh pali dongah anih te ka rhael mahpawh. Anih loh Edom manghai rhuh te lungbok la a tih dongah.
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.
Te dongah Moab soah hmai ka tueih vetih Kerioth impuei te a hlawp ni. Te vaengah Moab kah longlonah khuiah tamlung neh, tuki ol neh duek ni.
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.
Te dongah, “A khui lamkah lai aka tloek te ka saii vetih a mangpa boeih te amah neh ka ngawn ni,” tila BOEIPA loh a thui.
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.
BOEIPA loh he he ni a thui. Judah kah boekoeknah pathum neh pali dongah anih te ka rhael mahpawh. BOEIPA kah olkhueng te a hnawt tih a oltlueh te a tuem uh moenih. Amih te a napa rhoek kah a hnukah caeh hamla a laithae dongah kho a hmang uh.
5 Therefore will I send a fire vpon Iudah, and it shall deuoure the palaces of Ierusalem.
Te dongah Judah soah hmai ka tueih vetih Jerusalem kah impuei a hlawp ni.
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.
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Israel kah boekoeknah pathum neh pali dongah anih te ka rhael mahpawh. Amih loh dueng te tangka la, khodaeng te khokhom la a yoih.
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.
tattloel kah lu te diklai laipi dongah a thithut uh tih kodo kah longpuei te a mak uh. Tongpa neh a napa loh hula pakhat taengla a caeh thil dongah ka cimcaihnah ming he a poeih.
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.
Hmueihtuk boeih taengah laikoi himbai neh rhoel uh tih a Pathen im kah lai sah yu te a ok uh.
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.
Kai loh Amori te amih mikhmuh ah ka mitmoeng sak coeng. A sang te lamphai bangla sang tih thingnu bangla tlung sitoe cakhaw a soi kah a thaih neh a hmui kah a yung te ka mit sak.
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.
Kai loh nangmih te Egypt khohmuen lamloh kang khuen tih Amori khohmuen pang sak hamla nangmih te khosoek ah kum sawmli kan pongpa puei.
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?
Na ca rhoek lamloh tonghma la, na tongpang rhoek lamkah hlangcoelh la ka pai sak. Te khaw Israel ca kah moenih a? He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni.
12 But ye gaue the Nazarites wine to drinke, and commanded the Prophetes, saying, Prophecie not.
Tedae hlangcoelh rhoek te misurtui na tul uh. Tonghma rhoek te khaw na uen uh tih, “Tonghma boeh ne,” na ti nauh.
13 Behold, I am pressed vnder you as a cart is pressed that is full of sheaues.
Cangpa a bae te leng loh a rhuelh bangla kai loh nangmih te kang rhuelh coeng ne.
14 Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mightie saue his life.
Kapyang lamloh thuhaelnah khaw bing vetih tlungluen kah a thadueng khaw caang mahpawh. Hlangrhalh long khaw a hinglu loeih sak mahpawh.
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.
Lii aka muk khaw pai ngoeng pawt vetih a kap aka yanghoep khaw loeih mahpawh. Marhang dongkah aka ngol long khaw a hinglu loeih mahpawh.
16 And he that is of a mighty courage among the strong men, shall flee away naked in that day, sayth the Lord.
Hlangrhalh lakli kah a lungbuei aka rhapsat pataeng te khohnin ah tah pumtling la rhaelrham ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
