< Amos 4 >

1 Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, that oppress the poor, that crush the needy, that say unto their lords: 'Bring, that we may feast.'
Karoedengnaw ka rektap e, kahaikahlam kaawmnaw ka pacekpahlek e, amae bawinaw hah canei hane na poe haw ati awh teh, Samaria mon dawk kaawm e Bashan maitonaw, hete lawk he thai awh haw.
2 The Lord GOD hath sworn by His holiness: Lo, surely the days shall come upon you, that ye shall be taken away with hooks, and your residue with fish-hooks.
Bawipa Jehovah ni amae thoungnae hoi thoe a bo e patetlah nangmanaw hah hradang hoi thoseh, nangmae ca catounnaw hah tamlawk hoi thoseh mannae tueng a pha han.
3 And ye shall go out at the breaches, every one straight before her; and ye shall be cast into Harmon, saith the LORD.
Namamouh ni na hmu awh e a kâko dawk hoi lengkaleng na tâco awh vaiteh, Hermon thungvah na kâ tâkhawng awh han telah BAWIPA ni ati.
4 Come to Beth-el, and transgress, to Gilgal, and multiply transgression; and bring your sacrifices in the morning, and your tithes after three days;
Bethel kho dawk cet nateh, yon awh haw. Gilgal kho dawk cet nateh kâtapoenae pung sak haw. Amom tangkuem thuengnae sathei hnin thum touh dawk vai touh, pung hra pung touh e hah sin awh.
5 And offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of that which is leavened, and proclaim freewill-offerings and publish them; for so ye love to do, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.
Na lawp awh e hno thung dawk hoi lunghawilawkdeinae thueng awh. Lungthocalah hoi thuengnae hah pathang sak awh. Oe Isarelnaw, hottelah na sak navah, nangmouh ni na nawm awh han telah Bawipa Jehovah ni ati.
6 And I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and want of bread in all your places; yet have ye not returned unto Me, saith the LORD.
Kai ni nangmae kho tangkuem dawk, nangmouh na onae hmuen tangkuem dawk, takang ka tho sak nahai thoseh, nangmouh ni kai koe bout tho han na ngai awh hoeh telah BAWIPA ni ati.
7 And I also have withholden the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest; and I caused it to rain upon one city, and caused it not to rain upon another city; one piece was rained upon, and the piece whereupon it rained not withered.
Canga tue a pha hoehnahlan, thapa yung thum lathueng lah, kho a rak hoeh nahanlah, kho teh kai ni ka ngang toe. Kho buet touh dawk rak sak han thoseh, kho buet touh dawk a rak hoeh nahane thoseh ka sak han. Law buet touh ni kho tui a hmu vaiteh, alouke law ni teh hmawt mahoeh ka ke lah ao han.
8 So two or three cities wandered unto one city to drink water, and were not satisfied; yet have ye not returned unto Me, saith the LORD.
Hottelah kho thung dawk hoi kho thung e naw ni tui nei hanelah kho buet touh dawk a cei nakunghai boum awh mahoeh. Hatei nangmouh ni kai koe ban hane na ngai awh hoeh telah BAWIPA ni ati.
9 I have smitten you with blasting and mildew; the multitude of your gardens and your vineyards and your fig-trees and your olive-trees hath the palmer-worm devoured; yet have ye not returned unto Me, saith the LORD.
Kahlî ni akungnaw a due sak. A ke sak teh atui lah a lawng sak teh, duenae hoi kai ni ka rek toe. Nangmouh koe laikawk, misur takha, thaibunglungkungnaw, olivekungnaw, hah samtongnaw ni a ca awh toe. Hatei kai koe na ban awh hoeh telah BAWIPA ni ati.
10 I have sent among you the pestilence in the way of Egypt; your young men have I slain with the sword, and have carried away your horses; and I have made the stench of your camp to come up even into your nostrils; yet have ye not returned unto Me, saith the LORD.
Izip ram na kâhmo e lacik hah nangmouh na onae koe ka tha toe. Thoundounnaw hah tahloi hoi ka thei sak toe. Marangnaw hah ka man sak toe. Nangmouh na onae rim dawk kapawk e hmui hah na hnong dawk ka kâen sak toe. Hatei kai koe na ban awh hoeh telah BAWIPA ni ati.
11 I have overthrown some of you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and ye were as a brand plucked out of the burning; yet have ye not returned unto Me, saith the LORD.
Cathut ni Sodom kho hoi Gomorrah kho a tâkhawng e patetlah nangmouh tangawn kai ni na tâkhawng vaiteh, hmai dawk hoi rayu e thingtu patetlah na o awh toe. Hatei kai koe bout ban hane na ngai awh hoeh telah BAWIPA ni ati.
12 Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel; because I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.
Hatdawkvah, oe Isarelnaw, a lathueng lah ka sak e patetlah nangmouh koe ka sak han rah. Hottelah ka sak han dawkvah, Oe Isarelnaw, namamae Cathut hoi kâhmo hanelah, kârakueng awh.
13 For, lo, He that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what is his thought, that maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth; the LORD, the God of hosts, is His name.
Khenhaw. Monnaw ka sak niteh, kahlî ka sak e, tami ni pouk e naw ka panuek sak e, amom angnae hah ka hmawt sak e, talai arasangnae hmuen hah ka coungroe e a min teh Jehovah Cathut doeh.
