Malachi 1
1 The burden of the woorde of the Lord to Israel by the ministerie of Malachi.
Malakhi kut lamkah Israel ham BOEIPA olrhuh ol,
2 I haue loued you, sayth the Lord: yet yee say, Wherein hast thou loued vs? Was not Esau Iaakobs brother, saith the Lord? yet I loued Iaakob,
BOEIPA loh, “Nangmih kan lungnah,” a ti. Tedae, “Kaimih metlam nan lungnah? Esau tah Jakob manuca moenih a?” na ti uh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Jakob he ka lungnah ngawn ta.
3 And I hated Esau, and made his mountaines wast, and his heritage a wildernes for dragons.
Esau pataeng ka hmuhuet vaengah tah a tlang tlang te khopong la, a rho te khosoek pongui la ka poeh sak.
4 Though Edom say, wee are impouerished, but we will returne and build the desolate places, yet sayeth the Lord of hostes, they shall builde, but I will destroy it, and they shall call them, The border of wickednes, and the people, with whome the Lord is angrie for euer.
Edom loh, “N'laih coeng dae m'mael vetih imrhong khaw koep n'thoh bitni,” ti saeh. Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Amih loh thoh uh cakhaw ka koengloeng pah ni. Amih te halangnah khorhi la a khue uh vetih pilnam te BOEIPA loh kumhal duela kosi a hong thil ni.
5 And your eyes shall see it, and yee shall say, The Lord will be magnified vpon the border of Israel.
Na mik loh a hmuh vetih, “Israel khorhi voel duela BOEIPA len pai,” na ti uh ni.
6 A sonne honoureth his father, and a seruant his master. If then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my feare, sayth the Lord of hostes vnto you, O Priestes, that despise my Name? and yee say, Wherein haue we despised thy Name?
Capa loh a napa, sal loh a boei a thangpom. Kai he pa la ka om atah kai thangpomnah tah melae? Kai boei atah kai taengah rhimomnah te melae? Caempuei BOEIPA he ni a thui. Nangmih khosoih loh ka ming na sawtsit lalah, “Na ming te metlam kan sawtsit?” na ti uh.
7 Ye offer vncleane bread vpon mine altar, and you say, Wherein haue we polluted thee? In that ye say the table of the Lord is not to be regarded.
Ka hmueihtuk dongah aka mop loh buh a nok lalah, “Ba nen lae nang kan nok? Amah longni BOEIPA kah caboei a sawtsit,” na ti uh.
8 And if yee offer the blinde for sacrifice, it is not euill: and if ye offer the lame and sicke, it is not euill: offer it nowe vnto thy prince: will he be content with thee, or accept thy person, saieth the Lord of hostes?
Mikdael te nawn ham na mop uh vaengah a thae moenih a? Khokhaem neh aka ngoi na mop vaengah a thae moenih a? Na rhalboei taengah te te khuen uh mai lah, nangmih te m'moeithen aya? Na maelhmai te a dangrhoek aya? Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui.
9 And nowe, I pray you, pray before God, that he may haue mercie vpon vs: this hath beene by your meanes: will hee regard your persons, sayth the Lord of hostes?
Te dongah Pathen mikhmuh ah kothae uh mai laeh. Te daengah ni mamih n'rhen eh. Nangmih kut lamkah aka thoeng nen he nangmih kah maelhmai te a doe aya? Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui.
10 Who is there euen among you, that would shut the doores? and kindle not fire on mine altar in vaine, I haue no pleasure in you, sayeth the Lord of hostes, neither will I accept an offering at your hande.
Nangmih kongah unim thohkhaih aka khai lah ve. Te dongah ka hmueihtuk na sae sak uh pawh. Lunglilungla la, kai ham tah nangmih taengah ngaihnah tal coeng. Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Te dongah na kut lamkah khocang khaw ka doe mahpawh.
11 For from the rising of the sunne vnto the going downe of the same, my Name is great among the Gentiles, and in euery place incense shalbe offred vnto my Name, and a pure offering: for my Name is great among the heathen, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
Khomik kah khocuk lamloh a khuirhai duela namtom lakli ah ka ming len. Hlupnah hmuen takuem ah ka ming neh khocang cilh khaw na tawn uh. Namtom taengah ka ming he len pai tila Caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui.
12 But ye haue polluted it, in that ye say, The table of the Lord is polluted and the fruit thereof, euen his meat is not to be regarded.
Tedae, “Ka Boeipa kah caboei te amah loh a nok, a thaih neh a buh khaw a sit om,” na ti uh nen te na poeih uh.
13 Ye said also, Beholde, it is a wearines, and ye haue snuffed at it, sayth the Lord of hostes, and ye offred that which was torne, and the lame and the sicke: thus yee offred an offring: shoulde I accept this of your hand, sayth the Lord?
“Te te ngakyal la phen hmut te,” na ti uh. Caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui coeng. A huen phoeiah khokhaem neh aka ngoi ni na khuen tih khocang la na khuen uh. BOEIPA loh, “Nangmih kut lamkah te ka doe aya?” a ti.
14 But cursed be the deceiuer, which hath in his flocke a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth vnto ye Lord a corrupt thing: for I am a great King, sayth the Lord of hostes, and my Name is terrible among the heathen.
A tuping khuiah a tal a om lalah aka rhaithi hlang tah thae a phoei thil coeng. A caeng dae ka Boeipa ham tah a po a rhak ni a nawn. Caempuei BOEIPA loh, “Kai tah manghai puei la ka om tih ka ming he namtom taengah a rhimom,” a ti.
