< 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;
Juda gam’a, Teko’ah kho’a cheng kelngoi ching hat, Amos kitipa heng’a, hiche thuhi ana lhung e. Judah gam’a Uzziah lengvaipoh lai chuleh Israel gam’a Jehoash chapa Jeroboam lengvaipoh laiya, ling kiho masang kum nina-a chu, hiche thuhi Amos in themgao thilmua anamu ahi.
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!
Aman hitin aseije, “Pakai ogin gimnei tah chu, Zion lhanga kon a hung kitum ding, chuleh Jerusalem khopia kon’a gamtin thong leuva hung ging ding ahi. Chuleh kelngoi ching ho hamhing dum jouse goplha ding, Carmel lhang’a hamhing ho geija goplha-a thigam dingu ahi.”
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,
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Keiman Damascus khopi talen manlouva ka lha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu amiten chonset abol bol jing uvin, anga deh pouvin ahi. Amahon Gilead mun’ah kamite chu thih kangkuiya chang kikui bangin abol’un, ahi.
4 And I have sent a fire against the house of Hazael, And it hath consumed the palaces of Ben-Hadad.
Hijeh’a chu Keiman Hazael lengpa inpi meiya kahal lhah ding, chuleh Ben-hadad lengpa kulpi jong kasuhmang ding ahi.
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.
Keiman Damascus khopi kotpi ka tumboh ding, chuleh Aven phaicham a cheng miho katha gam ding ahi.
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,
Pakaiyin hitin aseije, “Gaza khopi talen manlouva kalha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu amiten chonset abol bol jeng’un, anga deh pouvin ahi. Amahon kho jousea miho abon’un sohchang in atolmang un, Edom gam’a soh in ajohdoh gam tauvin ahi.
7 And I have sent a fire against the wall of Gaza, And it hath consumed her palaces;
Hijeh’a chu Keiman Gaza khopi bang ho meiya kahal lhah ding, chuleh akulpi jouse jong kasuhmang ding ahi.
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.
Keiman Ashdod mite ka suhgam ding, chuleh Ashkelon lengpa jong ka suhmang ding ahi. Chuteng Ekron douna-a keiman ka khut kalha ding, Chuleh Philistine mi ahing doh amoh chengse jong thigam diu ahi,” tin Hatchung nung Pakaiyin aseiye.
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,
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Tyre khopi talen manlouva kalha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu amiten chonset abol bol jengun, anga deh pouve. Amahon Israel toh sopi unao hina akitepnau asukeh’un, khojousea miho abon’un Edom gam’a soh chang in ajoh doh gam tauvin ahi.
10 And I have sent a fire against the wall of Tyre, And it hath consumed her palaces.
Hijeh’a chu, Keiman Tyre khopi bang ho meiya ka hallhah ding, chuleh akulpi jouse jong ka suhmang ding ahi,” ati.
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,
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Edom mite talen man louva kalha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu amahon chonset abol bol jeng uvin, anga deh pouvin ahi. Amahon asopite, Israelte, chung’a chemjam apan’un adel jeng’un, dipdamna beijin aboltauve. Amahon, alungdam theilou jeh’un, asopite chu asat jing’un, chuleh nasatah in lunghang den in aum tauvin ahi.
12 And I have sent a fire against Teman, And it hath consumed palaces of Bozrah.
Hijeh’a chu Keiman Teman meiya kahal ding, chuleh Bozrah kulpi jouse jong ka suhmang ding ahi.
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,
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Ammon mite talen man louva kalha louhel ding ahi. Ajeh chu amahon chonset abol bol jeng uvin, anga dehpouvin ahi. Amahon gamgi kehbe na ding in, Gilead chu gal asat khum’un, numei gailai ho chemjam in agai acheuvin ahi.
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,
Hijeh’a chu keiman Rabbah khopi bangho meiya kahallhah ding, chuleh akulpi jouse jong kasuhmang ding ahi. Hiche gal chu, chimpei nasatah kipei bang ding, chuleh huise gimnei tah gin bang’a, mi peng in husa kithong ding ahi.
15 And gone hath their king in a removal, He and his heads together, said Jehovah!
Chutah leh alengpau leh leng chapate jouse abon’uva, migam’a sohchang ding’a kitolmang soh diu ahi,” tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
