Micah 7
1 I am very miserable/frustrated! I am like [SIM] someone who is hungry, [who searches for fruit to pick] after all the fruit had been picked and who finds no grapes or figs to eat.
Ada kahitai! Ajeh chu thingga akilona nunga koiman nehding kimu talou bangbeple lengpi theiga leh theichang kichomna nung tabang in kaumdoh tai.
2 [All] the godly people have disappeared from this land; there is not one of them left. [The people who are left] are all murderers [MTY]; [it is as though] everyone is eager to kill his fellow countryman.
Leiset chunga Pathen gingte la amangthah gamtan, mihemte laha lungdih pua khatcha Jong aumpon, thisan soa tolthat jeng ahiuve. Ami jousen asopi kipalna dinga thang kamjeng ahiuve.
3 They [all] use both hands to do what is evil. [Government] officials and judges [all] ask for bribes. Important people tell others what they want, and they plot/scheme together [about how to get it done].
Akhutuvin thilse jeng a boluvin lung nachang mongin thilse aboluve. Thutanna pang milen milalhon jong nehguh ding akithum thum'un ahi.
4 [Even] the best people are [as worthless] [SIM] as briers; the people [who are considered by others to be] [IRO] the most honest are worse than clumps of thornbushes. But, [Yahweh] will soon judge them; now is the time that he will punish people, a time when they will be [very] confused [because of being defeated].
Alahuva aphapena kisei jong chu ling tobang ahin, lungdih pentaha kiseipa jong chu ponlah abang’e, min akailuht nadiu nikho leh talen amat nadiu nikho chu hung lhung ding ahitai.
5 [So], do not trust anyone! Do not trust [even] a friend; [even] be careful what you say to your wife whom you love!
Koimacha tahsan hihin, nagol ngaitah jeng jong ahilou leh na inneipi jeng jong tahsan hih in.
6 Boys will despise their fathers, and girls will defy their mothers. Women will defy their mothers-in-law. Your enemies will be those who live in your own houses.
Chapan jong apa, chanun jong anu, mounu in jong atehpi chunga, namelma chu na insung taha kon hiding ahi.
7 As for me, I wait for Yahweh [to help me]. I confidently expect that God, my Savior, will answer me [when I pray].
Keiman Paki jeng bou eipanpi din vejing ingting, eihuhhing ka Pathen kanga jing ding ahi, Chutileh ka Pathen in kataona angai tei ding ahi.
8 You who are our enemies, do not gloat/rejoice about [what has happened to] us, [because even] if we have experienced disasters, [those disasters will end and] we will be restored. [Even] if [it is as though] we are sitting in the darkness, Yahweh will be our light.
Kagal miten duchatah in neive hihun, lhujong leng kathodoh kit ding ahi. Muthim laha toujong leng Pakai chu kameivah hiding ahi.
9 We must be patient while Yahweh punishes us because we have sinned against him. But later, [it will be as though] he will go to court and defend us, and he will make sure that the judge makes a right decision about us. [It will be as though] he will bring us out into the light, and we will see it when he rescues us.
Pakaiy in eigimbol jongle kathoh hat ding, ajeh chu ama dounaa kachonset jeh in. Ahinlah aman kachung thu hinkhol nante. Kei dinga thu atan masang sea kangai ngai ding ahi. Pakai in khovah a eipuidoh intin, chuteng chon dihna kamu ding ahi.
10 Our enemies will [also] see that, and they will be disgraced because they [ridiculed us], saying “Why is [RHQ] Yahweh, that God of yours, [not helping you]?” But with our own eyes we will see them when they are defeated; we will see them trampled like [SIM] mud in the streets.
Chuteng kamelmaten Pakai kei langa apan ahetdoh diu, na Pakai hoiya umem tia aseiju chu kijumsoa jahchabeh seh diu ahi. Hichenu chu kamit in noise taha avet ding ahi. Amanu chu lamlen kholai dunga min achotpha a leivui chil banga kichil ding ahi.
11 [You people of Israel, ] at that time your cities will be rebuilt, and your territory will become larger.
Hiche niteng chule Israel, nakhopi kisapha kit ding, chule nagamgi ho jong kikehlen ding.
12 [People from many countries will come to honor you]: people from Assyria and from [near] the [Euphrates] River [in the east] and from Egypt [in the south], from distant seas, and from many mountains.
Gam tamtah'a kona mipite hunga Assyria a kipana gam latah Egypt, Egypt a kipana Euphrate luipi changei, twipi leh mol ho kallanga, molsang jousea kona lhang sang jouse geija hung diu ahi.
13 But [the other countries on] the earth will become desolate because of the [evil] things that their people have done.
Leiset vang hi agoh keova hunglum ding, ajeh chu masanga ana cheng masaho chonset jeh ahi.
14 Yahweh, protect your people like [MET] [a shepherd protects his sheep] by using his walking stick; lead your people [MET] whom you have chosen to belong to you. [Even though some of them] live by themselves in a forest, give them the fertile pastureland in the Bashan and Gilead [regions] that they possessed long ago.
O Pakai nakelngoi china tenggollin namite neichingun, nakelngoi honte neilam kaijun, gammang laha hin achangsehin cheng jong leo, amahohi Bashan gamle Gilead gam'a kelngoi lhat bangin lhauhen, gollui laiya bangin umuhen.
15 [Yahweh says/replies], “[Yes], I will perform miracles for you like the miracles that I performed when I rescued your [ancestors] from [being slaves in] Egypt.”
Henge, tin Pakaiyin aseije. “Keiman thil kidang nasatah tah kabol peh diu Aigupta a kona nahung potdohuva kanabol banga kabol
16 [People from many] nations will see [what Yahweh does for you], and they will be ashamed because they do not have any power. They will put their hands over their mouths and their ears [because they will be very amazed because of what Yahweh does], [and they will not be able to say anything or hear anything].
Leiset pumpia namtin vaipin kidang asah sahdiu, Pakaiyin nang hi dinga thil kidang abol tengleh jachatna aneidiu, anakoluva jong kho ajah lou diu ahitai.
17 [Being very humiliated, ] they will crawl on the ground [MTY] like [SIM] snakes. They will come out of their homes trembling, and stand revering Yahweh our God. They will be very afraid of him, and will tremble in front of him.
Gul banga levui aleija aledio, leisetna a-opma kithol ganhing banga umdiu ahi. Akulpiuva konna kihot hotna hung potdoh diu, akichat behseh jeh uva Pakai ahin beldiu ahi. Nangma jeh'a amaho hi abonchauva kichasoh kei ding ahiuve.
18 [Yahweh], there is no [RHQ] God like you; you forgive the sins [DOU] that were committed by the people who have survived, the people who belong to you. You do not remain angry forever; you are very happy [to show us] that you faithfully love [us].
Nang banga agoulo amite ahungdoh amoh chengse dinga themmona, ngaidamna, suhkhelna, subei soh thei Pathen koipen um ding ham? Pathen chu alunghang jing jengpoi, ajeh chu Pakai hi alungset longlou anei hi kipah jo ahibouve.
19 You will again act kindly/compassionately toward us. You will get rid of [the scroll on which you have written] the sins that we have committed [as though you were] trampling it under your feet or throwing it into the deep ocean.
Neihin lungset kit’un natin; ka chonsetnau chengse jong nakengto noija koi in natin; twikhanglen'a na lelutding ahi.
20 You will show that you faithfully [do what you promised for us] and faithfully love us, just like you solemnly promised long ago to our ancestors Abraham and Jacob that you would do.
Jacob jong kitahna neitaha nabolla, long louva Abraham nalungset ding, masanglai a kapu kapateu koma na kihahsel banga nabol tei ding ahi.
