Judges 17
1 And there was a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Micah.
Ephraim mon dawk tami buet touh ao. A min teh Mikah doeh.
2 And he said unto his mother, The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from you, about which you cursed, and spoke of also in mine ears, behold, the silver is with me; I took it. And his mother said, Blessed be you of the LORD, my son.
Ahni ni a manu koevah, tangka 1, 100 touh na la pouh e hah nang ni kama ka thainae koe roeroe vah thoe na bo haw. Khenhaw! hote tangka teh kai koe ao. Kai ni ka la payon toe ati. A manu ni, ka capa BAWIPA ni yawhawi poe naseh atipouh.
3 And when he had restored the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, his mother said, I had wholly dedicated the silver unto the LORD from my hand for my son, to make a graven image and a molten image: now therefore I will restore it unto you.
Hahoi tangka 1, 100 touh a manu bout a poe toteh, a manu ni, hete tangka heh, kai kama e kut dawk roeroe hoi ka capa hanlah, meikaphawk sak nahan hoi meikaphawk dêi nahanelah, BAWIPA koe, atuvah bout na poe han atipouh.
4 Yet he restored the money unto his mother; and his mother took two hundred shekels of silver, and gave them to the founder, who made thereof a graven image and a molten image: and they were in the house of Micah.
Hot patetlah tangka hah a manu koe a pâban. Hahoi, a manu ni tangka cumhni touh a la teh, nguntui ka hlun koe a poe. Ahnimouh ni meikaphawk a sak teh, a hlun pouh awh. Hot teh Mikah im vah ao.
5 And the man Micah had an house of gods, and made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest.
Mikah ni bawkim a tawn. Ephod hoi Terah cathut a sak teh, a capa buet touh hah vaihma thaw a tawk sak.
6 In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
Hote tueng nah, Isarel ram siangpahrang awm hoeh. Taminaw pueng ni ama ni ahawi ati e patetlah kho a sak awh.
7 And there was a young man out of Bethlehemjudah of the family of Judah, who was a Levite, and he sojourned there.
Hahoi, Judah ram Bethlehem kho e Levih miphun thoundoun buet touh ao teh, Bethlehem khovah a roe teh,
8 And the man departed out of the city from Bethlehemjudah to sojourn where he could find a place: and he came to mount Ephraim to the house of Micah, as he journeyed.
haw hoi, bout a cei teh, a roe nahane hmuen a tawng teh, Ephraim mon dawk Mikah im vah a pha.
9 And Micah said unto him, Whence come you? And he said unto him, I am a Levite of Bethlehemjudah, and I go to sojourn where I may find a place.
Mikah ni, nâ lahoi maw na tho atipouh. Ahni ni, Judah ram Bethlehem e Levih tami doeh. O nahan hmuen tawng hoi ka kâva atipouh.
10 And Micah said unto him, Dwell with me, and be unto me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten shekels of silver by the year, and a suit of apparel, and your victuals. So the Levite went in.
Mikah ni, kai koe ma awm lawih. Kai koe na pa lah, vaihma lah awm nateh, kum touh dawk ngun phen hra touh na poe han. Khohna yung touh hoi na cakawi hai na poe han atipouh. Hahoi, Levih tami teh a kâen toe.
11 And the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was unto him as one of his sons.
Hahoi Levih tami ni hote tami koe o hanelah a hnâbo teh, hote thoundoun teh a capa buet touh patetlah ao.
12 And Micah consecrated the Levite; and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah.
Mikah ni Levih tami thoundoun teh, vaihma lah a coung sak teh, Mikah im vah ao.
13 Then said Micah, Now know I that the LORD will do me good, seeing I have a Levite to my priest.
Hahoi teh, Mikah ni, atuteh Levih tami teh kaie vaihma lah ka tawn toe. BAWIPA ni kai koe hawinae a sak han tie ka panue telah ati.
