< Habakkuk 1 >

1 The burden which Habakkuk the prophet did see.
Hiche hi Habakkuk themgaovin thilmu aneina thudol ahi.
2 O LORD, how long shall I cry, and you will not hear! even cry out to you of violence, and you will not save!
Vo PAKAI, itihchan geija panpi ngaichaa kakou kou di hitam? Hinla nangin nei ngaipeh poi! “Muntina nosopma kibolna aum tai!” Ka kap in, hinla eipanhu dingin na hungpoi.
3 Why do you show me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention.
Hiche gitlou kibol hohi kavet vet jing ding hitam? Hiche gim gentheina ho jouse hi ibol’a kavet vet jeng ding ham? Keiman kavet chanin mahthahna le nosopma kibolna hobou ka mudoh’e. Mi nelkal hat ho leh kinahpia hat mihonpi chun eihin umkimvel tauve.
4 Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment does never go forth: for the wicked does compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceeds.
Dan hi donlou tobangbep chu ahitai, chule thutanna munho’a jong thudih umtalou ahi. Migilou ho chun midih ho sanga gamchenga atamjoh jeh-uvin, thudih chu heikoija um bepma ahitai.
5 Behold you among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvelously: for I will work a work in your days which you will not believe, though it be told you.
Pakai chun adonbut in, “Chitin namtin ho khu gahven chuleh kidangsa temin! Ajeh chu keiman nangma nikho laiya hi thilkhat kahin boldoh ding, mi koiham khattouvin seijongleh na tahsan louhel ding chu kahinbol ding ahije.
6 For, see, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwelling places that are not theirs.
Keiman Babylon mite ho, giloutah le nosopma mibol ho chu ka hin tundoh ding ahi. Amahon vannoi muntin apaltan’uva kijotle ding’u chule gam dang tampi ahinjo dingu ahi.
7 They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves.
Amaho hi gitlou abol nauva engsetah’a chonna ahiuvin, chutia abolnom chengseu chu abol’u ahi.
8 Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves: and their horsemen shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as the eagle that hastens to eat.
Sakol aneihou jong lutnu sangin alhai hatjouvin, khomu chipchep a ngeihon lhakhom sangin jong ahoise jouve. Sakol kangtalaija touho chun gamlataha konin a sakol ho’u chu ahin thunun jeng uvin; Muvanlai lengle hon a anchah’u abokhumuva avallhum jiu kisei tobang ahiuve.
9 They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand.
Oh, ahung tauve, abonchauvin nosopma boldin akunsuh tauve. A gancha hon hou jong chu nelphaija hui bangin ahung kitol’un, amasanguva asohchang ho’u ahin masot hou chu neldi tamin atam jeng uvin ahi.
10 And they shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn to them: they shall deride every strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and take it.
Amahon leng ho le leng chapate ho chu isahlou tah'in abolun, chule akulpi ho jouse chu isah loutahin aboluve.
11 Then shall his mind change, and he shall pass over, and offend, imputing this his power to his god.
Amaho chu hui nung bangin akitolun chule achemang tauve. Hinla amaho sungil’a themona nei ahiuve, athahat uchu pathena nei ahiuve.”
12 Are you not from everlasting, O LORD my God, my Holy One? we shall not die. O LORD, you have ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, you have established them for correction.
Vo Pakai ka Pathen, nangma tonsotna um, ka Mithengpa Nangman nei theh manghel jeng hih nauvin nate na? Vo Pakai, ka Songpiu, nangman hiche Babylon mite hi eisudih dinguleh ka chonsetna ho’u atam jeh'a ei-gimbol dinguva na hinsol ahi.
13 You are of purer eyes than to behold evil, and can not look on iniquity: why look you on them that deal treacherously, and hold your tongue when the wicked devours the man that is more righteous than he?
Nangma hila athenga nahin chule agilou chu n maikoh a umtheilou ahi. Chuti ahileh amaho do’ha joulhepna namitsat ding hijaham? Mi engsete chun asanguva chonphajo avallhumu jongleh thipbeh a naum ding hitam?
14 And make men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?
Keiho hi ahinga kimandoh dinga le akithat dinga kiman ho tobangbep kahiuvem? Kei ho hi twikhanglen na um ganhing ho lamkai bei tobangbep ka hiuvem?
15 They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad.
Amaho kipanaa le golnop bolna dinguva, ngakoija eiki khaidoh dinga chuleh lensunga ohden bep ding bou kahi dingu hitam?
16 Therefore they sacrifice to their net, and burn incense to their drag; because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous.
Chuteng leh amahon lenthang anei hou chu Pathen tobang'in houvun tin, chuleh amasanguva chun gimnamtwi halna nei uvinte. Amaho chun, “Hiche lenthang pathen hohin keiho eihaodoh sah’u ahi” ati ding’u ahi.
17 Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?
Nangman ama ho hi hiti dinmuna hi nasolmangpai pai ding ham? Amaho hi phottohna beihella agaljouva hi i-tiha maipah jing dingu hitam?
