< Amos 1 >
1 Words of Amos — who hath been among herdsmen of Tekoa — that he hath seen concerning Israel, in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the shaking;
Judah siangpahrang Uzziah, Isarel siangpahrang Jehoash e capa Jeroboam tinaw e kut dawk talî a no hoehnahlan kum hni navah, tukhoum e lah kaawm e, Tekoa tami Amos ni Isarel ram hanelah, a hmu sak e lawk teh,
2 and he saith: Jehovah from Zion doth roar, And from Jerusalem giveth forth His voice, And mourned have pastures of the shepherds, And withered hath the top of Carmel!
BAWIPA ni Zion mon dawk hoi a hram teh, Jerusalem kho hoi lawk a pathang dawkvah, tukhoumnae hmuennaw teh, a kamyai vaiteh, Karmel monsom teh a kamyai han.
3 And thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of Damascus, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their threshing Gilead with sharp-pointed irons,
Miphunnaw lathueng lawkcengnae ni kâ a poe e teh, Damaskas kho teh, Gilead ram hah cangkatinnae sum e sehnaw hoi katin e yon phun kathum touh dueng hoeh niteh, yon pali touh dawkvah reknae na khang laipalah kaawm mahoeh.
4 And I have sent a fire against the house of Hazael, And it hath consumed the palaces of Ben-Hadad.
Hazael im dawk hmai ka tha vaiteh, Benhadad e imnaw hah ka kak sak han.
5 And I have broken the bar of Damascus, And cut off the inhabitant from Bikat-Aven, And a holder of a sceptre from Beth-Eden, And removed have been the people of Aram to Kir, said Jehovah.
Damaskas kho e longkha a khannae takhoe pouh han. Aven tanghling pueng, Beth-eden kho dawk e bawi katawknaw pueng, ka raphoe han. Sirianaw hah Kir kho lah a man awh han telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
6 Thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of Gaza, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their removing a complete captivity, To deliver up to Edom,
Hahoi BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, Gaza kho teh, paung e tami abuemlah hah Edom bawi koe poe hanlah, a man e yon kathum touh dueng laipalah, yon pali touh dawkvah, reknae na khang laipalah na awm mahoeh.
7 And I have sent a fire against the wall of Gaza, And it hath consumed her palaces;
Gaza kho rapan lathueng vah hmai ka tha vaiteh siangpahrang imnaw pueng hah ka kak sak han.
8 And I have cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, And a holder of a sceptre from Ashkelon, And have turned back My hand against Ekron, And perished have the remnant of the Philistines, Said the Lord Jehovah.
Ashdod kho e tami pueng, Ashkelon kho dawk bawi katawknaw pueng, ka raphoe han. Ekron kho hai ka tuk vaiteh, kaawm rae Filistin taminaw hai be a ro han telah Bawipa Jehovah ni a dei.
9 Thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of Tyre, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their delivering up a complete captivity to Edom, And they remembered not the brotherly covenant,
Hahoi BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, Taire kho teh hmaunawngha reira lawkkamnae pâkuem hoeh. Paung e tami abuemlah naw hah, Edom bawi koe a poe e yon kathum touh laipalah, yon pali touh dawk reknae na khang laipalah na awm mahoeh.
10 And I have sent a fire against the wall of Tyre, And it hath consumed her palaces.
Taire kho rapan dawkvah hmai ka tha vaiteh, imnaw ka kak sak han.
11 Thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of Edom, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of his pursuing with a sword his brother, And he hath destroyed his mercies, And tear perpetually doth his anger, And his wrath — he hath kept it for ever,
Hahoi BAWIPA Cathut ni a dei e teh, Edom ram teh, pahrennae lungthin ka panguep teh hmaunawngha hah tahloi hoi pâlei e yon, lungkhueknae hoi pout laipalah, ao teh, pout laipalah kâtarannae yon kathum touh dueng laipalah yon pali touh dawkvah reknae na khang laipalah na awm mahoeh.
12 And I have sent a fire against Teman, And it hath consumed palaces of Bozrah.
Teman kho dawk hmai ka tha vaiteh, Bozrah kho e imnaw pueng hah a kak han.
13 Thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of the sons of Ammon, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their ripping up the pregnant ones of Gilead, To enlarge their border,
Hahoi BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, Ammon ram e taminaw ni amamae hmuen hah kaw sak hanelah, camo ka vawn e, Gilead ram e napui camo kanengnaw e vonnaw hah vak a khei awh e yon kathum touh dueng laipalah, yon pali touh dawk kaie reknae na khang laipalah na awm mahoeh.
14 And I have kindled a fire against the wall of Rabbah, And it hath consumed her palaces, With a shout in a day of battle, With a whirlwind in a day of hurricane,
Rabbah khopui rapan hmaisawi vaiteh, imnaw ka kak sak han. Tarantuk nah hnin vah, hramkinae, kho hoi tûilî a thonae hnin nah palek e lah ao han.
15 And gone hath their king in a removal, He and his heads together, said Jehovah!
Ahnimae siangpahrang koehoi kamtawng vaiteh, a bawinaw hai man lah ao han telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
