< Amos 9 >
1 I saw the Lord towering above the altar, and he commanded: Strike the tops of the pillars so that the foundations may shake, bring them down on the heads of the people below. The rest of them I will slay with the sword: no one will get away, no one will escape.
Ka Boeipa te hmueihtuk taengah a pai te ka hmuh. Te vaengah, “Rhaimuem tloek lamtah cingkhaa khaw tuen saeh lamtah te a cungkuem kah lu dongah tim saeh. Amih te hmailong ah cunghang neh ka ngawn ni. Amih te rhaelrham khaw rhaelrham ngoeng pawt vetih a hlangyong te poenghal mahpawh.
2 If they dig down to Sheol, there will my hand take them. If they climb up to the heavens, from there will I bring them down. (Sheol )
Saelkhui duela ael uh cakhaw amih te ka kut loh te lamkah a loh ni. Vaan la luei uh cakhaw te lamloh amih te ka suntlak sak ni. (Sheol )
3 If they hide themselves on the top of Carmel, there will I search them out and take them. If they hide out of my sight at the bottom of the sea, there will I command the sea serpent to bite them.
Karmel lu ah thuh uh cakhaw te lamloh ka phuelhthaih vetih amih te ka loh ni. Ka mikhmuh dong lamloh tuitunli kah cirhong ah thuh uh cakhaw te lamloh rhul te ka uen vetih amih te a tuk ni.
4 If they are taken into captivity by their enemies, there will I command the sword to slay them. I will keep my eye on them but for evil and not for good.
A thunkha rhoek mikhmuh ah tamna la cet uh cakhaw te lamloh cunghang te ka uen vetih amih te a ngawn ni. Amih soah a then ham pawt tih thae hamla ka mik ka khueh ni.
5 It is the Lord the God of hosts, who touches the earth and it trembles, all who live on it mourn. The earth rises up like the Nile, and sinks like the Nile of Egypt.
Ka Boeipa caempuei Yahovah loh diklai he a ben tih paci coeng. Te dongah a khuikah khosa boeih te nguekcoi uh. A pum la sokko bangla phul tih Egypt sokko bangla rhaeng.
6 The one who builds in the heavens, who sets the dome of the sky over the earth, who summons the waters of the sea and pours them out on the face of the earth: the Lord is his name.
Vaan ah a tangtlaeng, a tangtlaeng la aka sa, diklai ah a khoengim aka suen, tuitunli kah tui te a khue tih diklai hman ah aka hawk kah kah a ming tah Yahweh ni.
7 To me, Israelites, you are just like the Cushites, says the Lord. Yes, I brought Israel up out of the land of Egypt, but also the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Arameans from Kir!
Nangmih Israel ca rhoek he kai hamla Kushi ca rhoek banghui moenih a? He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Israel te Egypt kho neh Philisti lamloh, Kaptor neh Aram lamloh, Kir lamloh ka khuen moenih a?
8 Behold the eyes of the Lord God are on the sinful kingdom: I will destroy it from the face of the earth! But I will not completely destroy the house of Jacob, says the Lord.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah kah mik tah hlangtholh kah ram soah a khueh coeng ke. Te ram te diklai maelhmai dong lamloh ka milh sak ni. Te cakhaw Jakob imkhui te ka mit rhoe ka mit sak mahpawh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
9 For behold I am about to give the command, and I will shake the house of Israel among all the nations just as one shakes grain in a sieve, but not a pebble shall fall to the ground.
Ka uen coeng lah ko ne. Te dongah Israel imkhui te namtom boeih lakli ah vairhuek dongkah a hinghuen bangla ka hinghuen ni. Tedae diklai la khonuen cuhu mahpawh.
10 All the sinners of my people, who deny that disaster will touch or befall them, will die by the sword.
Yoethae he mamih taengla mop pawt vetih n'hum uh mahpawh,” aka ti ka pilnam hlangtholh boeih te cunghang dongah duek uh ni.
11 On that day I will raise up the fallen house of David, I will wall up its gaps and raise up its ruins, I will rebuild it as it was long ago.
Te khohnin ah tah David kah dungtlungim aka cungku te ka thoh vetih a puut te ka biing ni. A rhawpnah khaw ka thoh vetih khosuen tue kah bangla te te ka sak ni.
12 They will possess again the rest of Edom, and all the nations which once you ruled for me, says the Lord, who will do this.
Te daengah ni Edom kah a meet neh amih taengah ka ming aka khue namtom boeih te a pang uh eh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong bangla a saii coeng.
13 Listen! The days are coming, says the Lord, when the harvest is too big to reap before it is time to plow, when the grapes cannot be all trod before it is time to sow, when the mountains will run with sweet wine, and every hill will flow with it.
BOEIPA kah olphong hnin ha pai coeng he. Aka thoe te aka at loh, misur aka cawt khaw a tii aka kuel loh a poeng ni. Tlang te thingtui la pha vetih som khaw boeih paci ni.
14 I will bring back my people Israel, they will rebuild waste cities and inhabit them, plant vineyards and drink their wine, make gardens and eat their fruit.
Ka pilnam thongtla Israel te ka mael puei ni. Te vaengah khopuei aka pong te a sak uh vetih kho a sak uh ni. Misurdum te a tawn uh vetih a misurtui te a ok uh ni. Dum a saii uh vetih a thaih te a caak uh ni.
15 I will plant them on their own soil, and they will never again be uprooted from their land which I have given them, says the Lord your God.
Te vaengah amih te amah khohmuen ah ka phung vetih a khohmuen dong lamloh koep phu mahpawh. Na Pathen BOEIPA loh amih taengah, 'Ka paek coeng,’ a ti,” tila a thui.
