< Micah 2 >
1 Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practice it, because it is in the power of their hand.
Nunae, boethae la aka moeh rhoek neh a thingkong dongah boethae aka saii rhoek aih, a kut dongah pathen hnap a om hatah mincang khosae ah te te a saii.
2 And they covet fields, and take [them] by violence; and houses, and take [them] away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
Khohmuen a nai uh tih a rhawth uh, im khaw a puen pa uh, hlang te a imkhui neh tongpa khaw, a rho khaw a hnaemtaek uh.
3 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; neither shall ye go haughtily: for this time [is] evil.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh, “Kamah loh he rhoek koca taengah yoethaenah ka hmoel pah coeng he. Te te na rhawn lamloh na hlong thai pawt vetih yoethaenah tue ah a cakdawk la cet boeh,” a ti.
4 In that day shall [one] take up a parable against you, and lament with a grievous lamentation, [and] say, We are utterly wasted: he hath changed the portion of my people: how hath he removed [it] from me! turning away he hath divided our fields.
Te khohnin ah tah nangmih taengah thuidoeknah hang khuen ni. Rhathinah neh rhathi tih a om vaengah, “Mah, pilnam kah khoyo he a rhoelrhak la n'rhoelrha uh tih a thovael coeng. Kai lamloh a khum phoeiah mah khohmuen te hnukmael taengla a tael pah,” a ti ni.
5 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast a cord by lot in the congregation of the LORD.
Te dongah BOEIPA kah hlangping lakli ah nang taengah hmulung neh rhi aka naan om mahpawh.
6 Prophesy ye not, [say they to them that] prophesy: they shall not prophesy to them, [that] they shall not take shame.
A saep uh akhaw n'saep uh boel saeh, he ham he saep uh boel saeh, mingthae te balkhong boel saeh.
7 O [thou that art] named the house of Jacob, is the spirit of the LORD straitened? are these his doings? do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly?
Jakob imkhui te cal a? BOEIPA kah Mueihla te a ngun pah a? He nim anih kah a khoboe? Aka thuem la pongpa ham a lohnaa uh khaw kai ol nen moenih a?
8 Even of late my people hath risen up as an enemy: ye pull off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse to war.
Tedae hlaem kah ka pilnam he a khaepdan ah thunkha bangla thoo. Caemtloek kah aka mael loh ngaikhuek la aka pah taengkah tangpueng himbai te na pit pa uh.
9 The women of my people have ye cast out from their pleasant houses; from their children have ye taken away my glory for ever.
Ka pilnam yuu rhoek te a omthenbawnnah im lamloh na haek uh. Kumhal ham ka rhuepomnah te a camoe rhoek taeng lamloh na loh pa uh.
10 Arise ye, and depart; for this [is] not [your] rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy [you], even with a grievous destruction.
Thoo uh lamtah cet uh, he he duemnah moenih. Laikoi loh a poeih tih bungtloh loh a thuek coeng.
11 If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood doth lie, [saying], I will prophesy to thee of wine and of strong drink; he shall even be the prophet of this people.
Hlang he yilh la cu tih a honghi la laithae mako. Nangmih ham te misur kawng neh yu kawng kan saep bitni. Te vaengah he he pilnam aka saep la om bitni.
12 I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as the flock in the midst of their fold: they shall make great noise by reason of [the multitude of] men.
Jakob nang te boeih kan coi rhoe kan coi ni. Israel kah a meet rhoek ka coi rhoe ka coi ni. Anih te saelim kah boiva bangla rhenten ka khuen ni. A rhamtlim laklo ah tuping bangla hlang neh pangngawl uh ni.
13 The breaker is come up before them: they have broken up, and have passed through the gate, and have gone out by it; and their king shall pass before them, and the LORD on the head of them.
Aka va rhoek te amih mikhmuh ah a caeh uh vaengah vongka a va uh vetih pah uh ni. Te longah a thoeng uh vaengah a manghai, amih mikhmuh ah, BOEIPA te amih lu ah cet ni.
