Micah 1
1 The word of Jehovah, which came to Micah, the Morasthite, in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah; which was revealed to him concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
Judah siangpahrang Jotham, Ahaz hoi Hezekiah, a bawinae kum dawk Morashtite tami Mikah koe ka tho e Cathut e Lawk Samaria hoi Jerusalem kong hoi kâkuen e teh,
2 Hear, all ye nations, Give ear, O earth, and all that is therein! The Lord, Jehovah, appeareth as a witness against you, The Lord from his holy palace.
Taminaw pueng thai awh haw, khocaramcanaw thai awh haw, Bawipa Jehovah kathounge bawkim hoi BAWIPA teh nangmouh na kapanuekkhaikung lah ao han.
3 Behold, Jehovah cometh forth from his dwelling-place; He cometh down, and advanceth upon the high places of the earth.
BAWIPA teh a onae hmuen koehoi a tâco a kum vaiteh, karasangnaw hah a coungroe han.
4 The mountains melt under him, And the valleys cleave asunder, Like wax before the fire, Like waters poured down a steep place.
Hmai ni khoilai a daw teh atui lah a lawng e patetlah ravopui dawk hoi kalawng e tui patetlah ka hmalah monnaw ni a kamyawt awh han, ayawnnaw hai a kâraue han.
5 For the transgression of Jacob is all this, And for the sin of the house of Israel. Where is the transgression of Jacob? Is it not at Samaria? And where are the high places of Judah? Are they not at Jerusalem?
Hete hnonaw pueng heh Jakop lawk eknae kecu dawk hoi Isarel imthungnaw a yon awh dawk doeh. Jakop lawk eknae bangne, Samaria nahoehmaw. Judah hmuen karasangpoung e nâne ao. Jerusalem nahoehmaw.
6 Therefore will I make Samaria a heap of stones in the field, A place for the planting of a vineyard; I will pour down her stones into the valley, And lay bare her foundations.
Hatdawkvah, Samaria khopui teh laikawk dawk e talai pâpawp e patetlah ka o sak han, Misur takha patetlah ka o sak han. Rapan talungnaw ayawn dawk ka rabawk han. Rapan adu hah kamnue sak han.
7 All her graven images shall be beaten to pieces, And all the hire of her harlotry shall be burned with fire, And all her idols will I destroy. For from the hire of a harlot did she gather her ornaments, And to the hire of a harlot shall they return.
Meikaphawk bawknae pueng reppasei lah ka hruek pouh han. A tawksaknae aphu pueng hmai ka sawi pouh han. Cathutkaphawk pueng be ka raphoe pouh han. Takkâyonae lahoi hnopai a tawn dawkvah, hote hnopainaw teh kâyawt e kut dawk bout a pha han.
8 Therefore I will wail and howl; I will go stripped and naked; I will wail like the jackal, And mourn like the ostrich.
Hote kong dawk kai teh ka khui ka ka han. Caici lahoi ka cei ka o han. Kahrawnguinaw patetlah ka hram teh, Kalauk tava patetlah ka cai han.
9 For her wound is mortal; It extendeth to Judah; It reacheth to the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
A hmâ teh dam thai hoeh, Judah ram totouh a kâkai awh vaiteh, ka miphun a onae hmuen Jerusalem khopui longkha totouh a pha toe.
10 Tell it not in Gath! weep not in Acco! In Beth-Aprah roll yourselves in the dust!
Gath khopui dawk thaisak awh hanh, khoeroe kap awh hanh. Bet Aphrah vah vaiphu dawk kamlet awh.
11 Pass on, thou inhabitant of Saphir, naked and in shame! The inhabitant of Zaanan no more goeth out; The grief of Beth-Azel denieth you an abode.
Oe Saphir taminaw caici lah cet awh, Zaanan taminaw khuika laihoi tâcawt awh hanh. Bethezel khopui dawk na roe awh nahane kâ na poe awh mahoeh.
12 The inhabitant of Maroth mourneth for his goods, For evil came down from Jehovah to the gates of Jerusalem.
Maroth tami ni hai hnokahawi a doun teh a ring eiteh Cathut koehoi e rucatnae lah Jerusalem longkha totouh a pha toe.
13 Bind the chariot to the courser, O inhabitant of Lachish! Thou wast the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion; In thee were found the transgressions of Israel.
Oe, Lakhish canu karang poung e marang dawk rangleng hah thueng haw, nang ni Isarelnaw e yonnae hah na kamtu awh teh Zion canunaw hah na yon sak awh.
14 Therefore shalt thou resign the possession of Moresheth of Gath; The houses of Achzib shall disappoint the kings of Israel.
Hatdawkvah, Gath ram Moreseth koe poehno na poe han. Akhazib khocanaw ni Isarel siangpahrangnaw hah a dumyen awh han.
15 A possessor will I bring to thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah; The glory of Israel shall flee to Adullam.
Oe, Mareshah kho kaawm e taminaw râw ka coe hane tami kai ni kakaw vaiteh, Isarel bawilennae Adullam kho dawk a pha han.
16 Make thyself bald, cut off thy locks, for the children of thy love; Enlarge thy baldness like the eagle; For they have gone from thee into captivity.
Ngai kaawm e canu capanaw teh san lah na man awh toung dawk, lû luengpalueng lah ngaw awh. Langta patetlah luengpalueng lah awm awh.
