< Malachi 3 >
1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.
Veuvin keiman ka masanga lampi sujang dingin ka thu polepa ka sol’e, chutengleh na hol jing na Pathen chu pohphunga hou in a hung kilah jing ding ahi. Nanghon mukal na ngalel’u kitepna thu hungtei ding ahi, tin van janel Pakai chun asei’e.
2 But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he [is] like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap:
“Ahinlah ahung tengleh koi ham adoujou ding ah? Koiham ama ahung kilah tengleh amaija ding ngam dingah? Amachu thih kilhajol meikong al’lenglung tobang ding, ahilouleh pon sop bangna sabon tobang ding ahi.
3 And he shall sit [as] a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.
Sana lhajolpan, sana alhahjol banga, manthei louho a suhtheng ding, dangka leh sana asuhjol tobanga asuhjol ding chutengleh Pakai komma santheidol thilto ahin neithei ding ahi.
4 Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in former years.
Hiteng le chun Pakaiyin akomma hung kichoilut Jerusalem leh Juda mipite thilto ho chu tumasanga banga ahin santhei kit ding ahi tai.
5 And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in [his] wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger [from his right], and fear not me, saith the LORD of hosts.
Chuteng chuleh keima thutan dinga na kom’u kahin nai ding phunsan themho, mijong ho, mijou ho, sum lo a na tong ho, thaman penom lou ho, meithai holeh, nulepa beiho chuleh gamchom mi na lahuva cheng ho chunga thu adiha tan nomlou ho chuleh keima seijui lou ho chu ka engbol ding ahi, tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin asei’e.
6 For I [am] the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
Keima Pakai kahin kikhelna neilou kahi. Hijeh a chu nangho Jacob chate na kisumang soh louvu ahi.
7 Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept [them]. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return?
Napu napateo khanglaija pat’in nanghon ka danthu ho na nahsah pouvin jui jong na jui pouve. Tun hung kile kit ding ka hi tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin asei’e. Ahinlah nanghon na sei jun keiho chebon ki che mang kha louva iti ka kile kit diu ham? na tiuve.
8 Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.
Mihemin Pathen achom angai ham? Ahinlah nanghon nei chomun ahi! ahijeng vang'in nanghon na sei jun “Pathen chu iti ka chom diu ham?” na tiuve. Na hopsom to lou jeh ule thilto to ding na tolou jeh uva nei chom’uvah ahi.
9 Ye [are] cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, [even] this whole nation.
Hitia keima nei chom jeh uva na nam pumpiuva na ki gaosap sohkeiju ahitai.
10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that [there shall] not [be room] enough [to receive it].
Hopsom jouse akholna munna hinlhut soh keijun chutileh ka hou in sunga nehleh chah lhingset ding ahi. Hiti a chu na bol uleh keiman van gam lang kot jouse ka hon lhah a phathei bohna lhingset a, akholna let lha gei ja ka hin sunlhah ding ahi. Hiti chun keima jeng jong hi nei patep mun tin hat chungnung pen Pakaiyin aseije.
11 And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts.
“Na chang le na min jong pha ding ahi, ajeh chu a susethei ho jousea konna ka ventup peh ding, na lengpi thei ho jong amin masanga lhulhop lou ding ahi” tin hatchungnung Pakai jin aseije.
12 And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts.
“Chuteng chuleh chitin namtin in mi nunnom ahiuve ati diu ajeh chu na gamsung chu kipana dimset ding ahi” tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin aseije.
13 Your words have been stout against me, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, What have we spoken [so much] against thee?
Pakaiyin asei’e, “Nanghon kei dounan thupha loutah tah na sei’uve, ahinla nanghon nangma douna a ipi ka sei uvem?” na tiuve.
14 Ye have said, It [is] vain to serve God: and what profit [is it] that we have kept his ordinance, and that we have walked mournfully before the LORD of hosts?
Nanghon, Pathen kin bolhi ipi phachom nam? na tiuve. A thupeh dungjui ja ichon’uva ipi phachom am, ahilouleh ka chonset jeh uvin ka kisih uve tia hatchungnung Pakai komma isei uva ipi phachom am? natiuve.
15 And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are set up; yea, [they that] tempt God are even delivered.
Tua pat'in mi kiletsah ho phathei achangin, thilse bolho a haodohun Pathen engbolna thoh ngap ho jong ahao doh theije, na tiuve.
16 Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard [it], and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.
Chujou chun Pakai ging khencha umho chu khat le khat akihouvun ahileh Pakaiyin amaho kihouna chu angai pehin ahi. Pakai angsunga chun, Pathen ging jing holeh amin domsang nom jing ho geldoh jingna dingin lekhajol khat a amin’u aki pehlutin ahi.
17 And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.
“Amaho chu ka mite hi diu ahi” tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin aseijin ahi. Keiman thu katanna nikho teng leh amaho chu atum be a kasahlut tah, ka gou hi diu, mipan athu ngai, acha thilsea konna ahoi doh banga, kenjong ama ho chu kahoidoh sah ding ahi.
18 Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.
Chuteng leh nanghon michonpha le michonpha lou nahet khenuva Pathen kin bol hole abollou ho na hetkhen thei diu ahi.
