< Malachi 2 >
1 “And now, to you [is] this charge, O priests,
Tun thempu hon ngaiuvin hiche thupeh hi nangho dinga ahi.
2 If you do not listen, and if you do not lay [it] to heart, To give glory to My Name,” said YHWH of Hosts, “I have sent the curse against you, And I have cursed your blessings, Indeed, I have also cursed it, Because you are not laying [it] to heart.
Kasei hi ngai’unlang ka min jabolna ding in lunggel thah na nei tan, tin hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin aseije. Achuti louleh na chunguva sapsetna nasatah kalhunsah ding ahi. Tahbeh in keiman ka sapsetsa nahitauve, ajeh chu nanghon kagihnau chu na gelkhoh pouve.
3 Behold, I am pushing away the seed before you, And have scattered dung before your faces, Dung of your festivals, And it has taken you away with it.
Keiman na chilhahteu ka engbol a thilboh ho chu na maichanguva ka thekhum ding ahi. Chu tengleh na thilbol ho lah’a ka selut ding nahiuve.
4 And you have known that I have sent this charge to you, For My covenant being with Levi,” said YHWH of Hosts.
Chutengleh nanghon Levite toh nakitepnau achejom theina dinga gihsalna vopsah chu keima kahi chu nahin hetdoh ding’u ahi, tin hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin aseije.
5 “My covenant has been of life and of peace with him, And I make them a fear to him, and he fears Me, And because of My Name he has been frightened.
Levite toh kitepna ka nanei nalopen chu na hinkhouva chamna nanei theina diuva kana peh’u ahi. Hiche hin amaho’a konna jana leh ginna kachantheina ding a hin amahon jana lentah eina peuvin kamin loupina dingin ana ding chahkheh’un ahi.
6 The law of truth has been in his mouth, And perverseness has not been found in his lips, In peace and in uprightness he walked with Me, And he brought back many from iniquity.
Amahon keija konna amu’u thupeh ho chu amiteu anape sonnun ahi. Amahon jou le tah chonna ana neipouve, amahon keidei lampi ana chepiuvin phatna leh chonphatnaa konin mi tamtah ahin le puidoh kit’un ahi.
7 For the lips of a priest preserve knowledge, And they seek law from his mouth, For he [is] a messenger of YHWH of Hosts.
Pathena konna chihna leh hetthem theina hi thempu ho kom’a konna hung potdoh ding hitia chu mipi ho chu amaho kom’a thuhil ngaicha a cheji diu ahi. Ajehchu amaho hi hatchungnung Pakai thuhil pole ho ahiuve.
8 And you, you have turned from the way, You have caused many to stumble in the Law, You have corrupted the covenant of Levi,” said YHWH of Hosts.
Ahin nangho thempuhon Pathen lampi na peltauve nang ho thuhila konin mi tachonsea alhalut tauvin ahi. Nanghon Levite toh ka kitepna chu na suboh tauvin ahi, tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin aseijin ahi.
9 “And I also, I have made you despised and low before all the people, Because you are not keeping My ways, And are accepting by superficial things in the Law.”
Hijeh achu keiman nang ho hi vannoi mite ho mitmu a kidah umtah leh noise umtah ka hisah nahitauve. Ajeh chu nanghon ka thu nangai pouvin, ka thuhil dungjuijin na chon pouvin mipi lah a sihnei langneina in na natongun ahi.
10 Have we not all one Father? Has not our God created us? Why do we deal treacherously, Each against his brother, To defile the covenant of our fathers?
Eiho hi mipa khat cheh ihiu hilou ham? Eiho hi Pathen khatseh sem ihi louvu ham? Chuti ahileh iti danna eiho leh eiho ikilhep lhahuva ipu ipateu Pathen toh iki tepnau chu i-suhkehu hitam?
11 Judah has dealt treacherously, And abomination has been done in Israel and in Jerusalem, For Judah has defiled the holy thing of YHWH that He has loved, And has married the daughter of a strange god.
Judah akitah poi, Jerusalem leh Israelte lah a thil dihlou tah ahung lhung tai. Juda miten semthu milim hou numeiho a kichenpiuvin Pakai muntheng a suboh tauve.
12 YHWH cuts off the man who does it, Tempter and tempted—from the tents of Jacob, Even he who is bringing a present near to YHWH of Hosts.
Hijeh chun Pakaiyin hitobang bol ho jouse chuleh hatchungnungpen Pakai henga thilto dihlou hin choi ho jouse hi Israel namlaha konin amaho hi hatchungnung Pakaiyin ka chomkhen tan ahi.
13 And you do this a second time, Covering the altar of YHWH with tears, With weeping and groaning, Because there is no more turning to the present, Or receiving of a pleasing thing from your hand.
Chuleh nanghon thildang nabol’u jong aum’e. Pakaiyin na thiltou anah sahlou jeh leh alunglhai lou jeh, asan thei lou jeh'in Pakai maicham chung chu na mitlhi na chupsahin kap leh lunghem tahin na khoisa in ahi.
14 And you have said, “Why?” Because YHWH has testified between you And the wife of your youth, That you have dealt treacherously against her, And she [is] your companion, and your covenant-wife.
Nangman na seijin, “Pakaiyin ipi dinga ka taona hi asan lou ham nati.” Keiman seipeh ing kate! Ajeh chu na khandonlaija na jinei a chu ahetoh a Pakai pang ahi. Ahinlah amanu naji hina a na kichen lhonna na kitepna lhon dungjuija kitah taha aum vang'in nang vang kitahlou tahin na hung chon tan ahi.
15 And He did not make one [only], And a remnant of the Spirit [is] for him. And what [is] the one [alone]! He is seeking a godly seed. And you have been watchful over your spirit, And with the wife of your youth, None deal treacherously.
Pakaiyin naji toh pumkhat hidinga na goplhon hilou ham? Tahsa leh lhagaova ama a nahi lou ham? Chuleh aman adei chu ipi ham? Na kigop lhonna pat Pathenna nahi lhon hilou ham? Hijeh chun phatah in kingaiton lang na khandonlaija na jinu a chun kitah tahin um'in, ati.
16 “For He hates sending away,” said YHWH, God of Israel, “And he [who] has covered violence with his clothing,” said YHWH of Hosts, “And you have been watchful over your spirit, And you do not deal treacherously.”
Ajeh chu keiman kida hi ka mah ahi! tin Israel Pathen in aseijin ahi. Na jinu chu na da leh ama chunga chu engsetna nalhut khum ahitai, tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin asei’e. Hijeh chun ki tomla in na jinu chunga na kitepna lhon sukeh hihin.
17 You have wearied YHWH with your words, And you have said, “In what have we wearied Him?” In your saying, “Every evildoer [is] good in the eyes of YHWH, And He is delighting in them,” Or, “Where [is] the God of judgment?”
Na kampaovin na Pakai chu suboi hihun; nang hon iti kasuhboi uvem? tiuvin nate: thilse bol hi Pakai mitmua thilpha ahin, ama lunglhaina ahi natiu hin Pakai chu nalung phatmosahu ahi, thu adihtaha tan Pathen chu um hinam natiu hin, nalung phatmosahu ahije.
