< Judges 17 >

1 And there is a man of the hill-country of Ephraim, and his name [is] Micah,
Phat khatnin Micah kiti pasal khat ana ummin amachu Ephraim thinglhang gamsunga chenga ahi.
2 and he saith to his mother, 'The eleven hundred silverlings which have been taken of thine, and [of which] thou hast sworn, and also spoken in mine ears; lo, the silver [is] with me, I have taken it;' and his mother saith, 'Blessed [is] my son of Jehovah.'
Nikhat hi aman anu kommah hitin anaseije, “Mikhat nin nasum dangka sankhat le jakhat anaguh jeh'in nangin nana samsetai ti kanajan ahi. Ven nasum gu’achu keima kahi chuleh tun kakomma aumme” ati. Anun adonbutnin, “Nangle nang nakiphon ahin Pathenin phatthei naboh hen” ati.
3 And he giveth back the eleven hundred silverlings to his mother, and his mother saith, 'I had certainly sanctified the silver to Jehovah, from my hand, for my son, to make a graven image, and a molten image; and now, I give it back to thee.'
Aman sumchu anu komma apelutnin ahileh anun hitin aseije “Tun keiman hiche sapsetna chu kachapa chunga achuhlouna dingin keimatah in hiche sumchu Pakai kommah kakatdoh tai. Hichehi kilhajolla milim doikhat semna kimang ding ahi” ati.
4 And he giveth back the money to his mother, and his mother taketh two hundred silverlings, and giveth them to a refiner, and he maketh them a graven image, and a molten image, and it is in the house of Micah.
Hitia chu aman sumchu anu khutna apehlut chun amanun dangka jani chu alan dangka khengpa kommah apelut tan ahileh aman milim doikhat asemdoh tan ahi. Chuleh hichechu Micah insungah akikoitan ahi.
5 As to the man Micah, he hath a house of gods, and he maketh an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrateth the hand of one of his sons, and he is to him for a priest;
Micah hin hiche doi koina dinga hin doiphung khat atung doh in chuleh hiche doihou nading ompho jong asem’in insunga ding phabepjong asemdoh in ahi. Hiche jouchun achate lah a khat chu amachanga din thempun apansah in ahi.
6 in those days there is no king in Israel, each that which is right in his own eyes doth.
Hichelai phatsung chun Israelten leng ananei pouvin mipiho chun amaho deidan dannin ana kimang chaovin ahi.
7 And there is a young man of Beth-Lehem-Judah, of the family of Judah, and he [is] a Levite, and he [is] a sojourner there.
Nikhat chun Judah gam Bethlehem ching golhang khat ahung vahlutnin ahi.
8 And the man goeth out of the city, out of Beth-Lehem-Judah, to sojourn where he doth find, and cometh to the hill-country of Ephraim, unto the house of Micah, to work his way.
Aman Bethlehem chu ahindalhah a chenna ding holla ahung valele leh Ephraim thinglhang gamma hi hung vahlut khat ahi. Hitiahi ahung vale le nalam mahin Micah in na hin ahung vahlut khan ahi.
9 And Micah saith to him, 'Whence comest thou?' and he saith unto him, 'A Levite [am] I, of Beth-Lehem-Judah, and I am going to sojourn where I do find.'
Micah in hoiya konna hung nahim tin anadongin ahi. Aman adonbutnin, “Keihi Levi mi Judah gam Bethlehema kona hung kahin keimahi chenna ding mun holla hung kahi” ati.
10 And Micah saith to him, 'Dwell with me, and be to me for a father and for a priest, and I give to thee ten silverlings for the days, and a suit of garments, and thy sustenance;' and the Levite goeth [in].
Micah in, “Keikomma hin umtan chutileh nang keima dinga mipa leh thempu nahi ding ahi” ati.
11 And the Levite is willing to dwell with the man, and the young man is to him as one of his sons.
Levi mipachu ananom in, hitichun hiche golhangpa chu Micah chate khat tobang'in aumtan ahi.
12 And Micah consecrateth the hand of the Levite, and the young man is to him for a priest, and he is in the house of Micah,
Hitichun Micah in hiche Levi pachu ama thempu in anapansah in, amajong Micah in'ah anacheng tan ahi.
13 and Micah saith, 'Now I have known that Jehovah doth good to me, for the Levite hath been to me for a priest.'
Micah in tunvang Pakaiyin phatthei eiboh ding ahitai, ajeh chu keiman Levi khat thempu a eipan pehding kaneitai ati.
