< Amos 1 >

1 The wordes of Amos, who was among the heardmen at Tecoa, which he sawe vpon Israel, in the dayes of Vzziah king of Iudah, and in the dayes of Ieroboam the sonne of Ioash King of Israel, two yeere before the earthquake.
Tekoa kah saelhung boei rhoek khuikah aka om Amos ol. Judah manghai Uzziah tue neh Israel manghai Joash capa Jeroboam tue, lingluei hmai kah kum vaengah Israel ham a hmuh pah.
2 And he saide, The Lord shall roare from Zion, and vtter his voyce from Ierusalem, and the dwelling places of the shepheards shall perish, and the top of Carmel shall wither,
BOEIPA tah Zion lamloh kawk tih Jerusalem lamloh a ol a huel tih a thui. Te vaengah boiva aka dawn kah rhamtlim te nguekcoi tih Karmel lu rhae coeng.
3 Thus saith the Lord, For three transgressions of Damascus, and for foure I will not turne to it, because they haue threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of yron.
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Damasku kah boekoeknah pathum neh pali dongah anih te ka rhael mahpawh. Gilead te thi vueituk neh a boh.
4 Therefore will I sende a fire into the house of Hazael, and it shall deuoure the palaces of Ben-hadad.
Te dongah Hazael im ah hmai ka tueih vetih Benhadad impuei a hlawp ni.
5 I will breake also the barres of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant of Bikeath-auen: and him that holdeth the scepter out of Beth-eden, and the people of Aram shall goe into captiuitie vnto Kir, sayth the Lord.
Damasku thohkalh te ka khaem vetih kolbawn lamkah khosa rhoek khaw, Betheden kah caitueng aka pom khaw ka thup ni. Aram kah pilnam te Kir la a poelyoe uh ni tila BOEIPA loh a thui.
6 Thus sayth the Lord, For three transgressions of Azzah, and for foure, I will not turne to it, because they caried away prisoners the whole captiuitie to shut them vp in Edom.
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Gaza kah boekoeknah pathum phoeikah pali dongah anih ka rhael mahpawh. Amih hlangsol a poelyoe tih Edom taengah rhuemtuet la a det.
7 Therefore will I sende a fire vpon the walles of Azzah, and it shall deuoure the palaces thereof.
Gaza vongtung soah hmai ka tueih vetih a impuei khaw a hlawp pah ni.
8 And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him that holdeth the scepter from Ashkelon, and turne mine hande to Ekron, and the remnant of the Philistims shall perish, sayth the Lord God.
Ashdod kah khosa neh Ashkelon kah caitueng aka pom rhoek khaw ka thup ni. Ekron taengah ka kut ka thuung vetih Philisti kah a meet rhoek khaw milh uh ni tila Boeipa Yahovah loh a thui.
9 Thus sayth the Lord, For three transgressions of Tyrus, and for foure, I will not turne to it, because they shut the whole captiuitie in Edom, and haue not remembred the brotherly couenant.
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Tyre kah boekoeknah pathum neh pali dongah anih te ka rhael mahpawh. Hlangsol te Edom taengah rhuemtuet la a det tih manuca kah paipi te poek uh pawh.
10 Therefore wil I send a fire vpon ye walles of Tyrus, and it shall deuoure the palaces thereof.
Te dongah Tyre vongtung soah hmai ka tueih vetih a impuei khaw a hlawp pah ni.
11 Thus sayeth the Lord, For three transgressions of Edom, and for foure, I will not turne to it, because hee did pursue his brother with the sworde, and did cast off all pitie, and his anger spoyled him euermore, and his wrath watched him alway.
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Edom kah boekoeknah pathum ham neh pali ham te anih ka rhael mahpawh. A manuca te cunghang neh a hloem tih a haidamnah khaw a porhak sak. A thintoek a yoeyah la a paem tih a thinpom te a ngaithuen yoeyah.
12 Therefore will I send a fire vpon Teman, and it shall deuoure the palaces of Bozrah.
Te dongah Teman soah hmai ka tueih vetih Bozrah impuei khaw a hlawp pah ni.
13 Thus sayth ye Lord, For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, and for foure, I will not turne to it, because they haue ript vp the women with child of Gilead, that they might enlarge their border.
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Ammon ca rhoek kah boekoeknah pathum ham neh pali ham te anih ka rhael mahpawh. Amamih kah khorhi dangka hamla Gilead bungvawn rhoek te a boe uh.
14 Therefore will I kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it shall deuoure the palaces thereof, with shouting in the day of battell, and with a tempest in the day of the whirlewinde.
Te dongah hmai tah Rabbah vongtung dongah ka hlup pah vetih a impuei khaw a hlawp pah ni. Caemtloek hnin ah tamlung neh cangpalam hnin kah hlipuei.
15 And their King shall go into captiuitie, he and his princes together, saith the Lord.
Amih kah manghai amah neh a mangpa rhoek vangsawn la rhenten cet ni tila BOEIPA loh a thui.
