Micah 7
1 My woe [is] to me, for I have been As gatherings of summer-fruit, As gleanings of harvest, There is no cluster to eat, The first-ripe fruit desired hath my soul.
Kai teh ka yawthoe. Kompawi tue nah khi e thaibunglung paw hoi rakhun e misur paw kacawie patetlah ka o. Ca hane kawi misur paw awm hoeh. Thaibunglung paw aluepaw hah ka doun toe.
2 Perished hath the kind out of the land, And upright among men — there are none, All of them for blood lie in wait, Each his brother they hunt [with] a net.
Cathutlae naw kahmakata awh toe. Tami kalan buet touh hai awm hoeh. Tami pueng teh tami thei hanlah a pawp awh toe. Buet touh hoi buet touh tangkam dawk a ka man awh.
3 On the evil [are] both hands to do [it] well, The prince is asking — also the judge — for recompence, And the great — he is speaking the mischief of his soul, And they wrap it up.
Yonnae sak hanelah coungkacoe lah ao awh. Bawinaw ni poehno a hei awh. Lawkcengkungnaw ni tadawngnae a ca awh. Ayâ hlak kalen e tami ni teh hounlounnae a kamnue sak. Hottelah, a kâsanu nahanlah a sak awh.
4 Their best one [is] as a brier, The upright one — than a thorn-hedge, The day of thy watchmen — Thy visitation — hath come. Now is their perplexity.
Tami kahawipoung hai pâkhingkung patetlah doeh ao. Tami kalan poung hai pâkhing takha hlak a ru. Nang ramvengnaw ni kâhruetcuet poenae hnin, nang rektapnae na poenae hnin lah a pha, hothateh, lungpuennae lah ao han.
5 Believe not in a friend, trust not in a leader, From her who is lying in thy bosom keep the openings of thy mouth.
Na imri yuem hanh. Lam ka patue e hah kâuep hanh. Na lungtabue dawk ka ip e na yu hah yuem hanh. Na kâko takhang hah cakuep lawih.
6 For a son is dishonouring a father, A daughter hath stood against her mother, A daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, The enemies of each [are] the men of his house.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ca ni a na pa e min a mathoe sak. Canu ni a manu thoseh, a langa ni a mani thoseh, a taran han. Ma e imthungkhunaw teh mae taran lah ao han.
7 And I — in Jehovah I do watch, I do wait for the God of my salvation, Hear me doth my God.
Hatei, kai teh BAWIPA ka ngaihawi han. Ka rungngangnae Cathut hah ka kângue han. Cathut ni ka lawk a thai han.
8 Thou dost not rejoice over me, O mine enemy, When I have fallen, I have risen, When I sit in darkness Jehovah is a light to me.
Ka taran nang, kaie lathueng vah kâoupnae, lunghawinae tawn hanh. Ka rawm nakunghai bout kathâw han. A hmonae koe ka tahung nakunghai, Cathut teh kaie angnae lah ao han.
9 The indignation of Jehovah I do bear, For I have sinned against Him, Till that He doth plead my cause, And hath executed my judgment, He doth bring me forth to the light, I look on His righteousness.
Kai teh BAWIPA koe ka yon dawkvah, na racing hoehnahlan totouh a lungkhueknae ka khang han. Kai hah angnae koe na rasa vaiteh, lannae hmuen na poe e hah ka hmu han.
10 And see doth mine enemy, And cover her doth shame, Who saith unto me, 'Where [is] Jehovah thy God?' Mine eyes do look on her, Now she is for a treading-place, As mire of the out-places.
Na Cathut nâne ao telah na ka pacei e ka taran ni hote hno a hmu torei teh yeirai a po han. Ahni koe ka lung a roum han. Ahni teh lam dawk e tangdong coungroe e patetlah ao han.
11 The day to build thy walls! That day — removed is the limit.
Nange khopui rapan saknae tueng a pha han. Kâtawnnae apout han.
12 That day — even unto thee it doth come in, From Asshur and the cities of the fortress, And from the fortress even unto the river, And from sea to sea, and mount to mount.
Hatnae tueng dawk, Assiria ram hoi Izip khopui hai thoseh, Izip ram hoi tuipui rahak hai thoseh, tuipui tengpam, monnaw tangkuem koehoi hai thoseh, nang koevah a tho awh han.
13 And the land hath been for a desolation, Because of its inhabitants, Because of the fruit of their doings.
Hottelah, ao hoehnahlan khoca ramca naw e yonnae kecu dawk ram teh tami kingkadi lah ao han.
14 Rule Thou Thy people with Thy rod, The flock of Thine inheritance, Dwelling alone [in] a forest in the midst of Carmel, They enjoy Bashan and Gilead as in days of old.
BAWIPA e tami tie a huiko awm laipalah Karmel mon dawk kaawm e râw tuhu hah tukhoumnae sonron hoi khoum la, ayan e patetlah Bashan ram hoi Gilead ram dawk pawngpa sak haw.
15 According to the days of thy coming forth out of the land of Egypt, I do shew it wonderful things.
Izip ram hoi na tâconae hnin dawk na hmu e patetlah kângairu hnonaw bout na patue han.
16 See do nations, and they are ashamed of all their might, They lay a hand on the mouth, their ears are deaf.
Miphunnaw ni ka taminaw dawk kaawm e bahu a hmu awh teh, lungpuen laihoi amamae pahni hah kut hoi a tabuem awh vaiteh a hnâtâdeng awh han.
17 They lick dust as a serpent, as fearful things of earth, They tremble from their enclosures, Of Jehovah our God they are afraid, Yea, they are afraid of Thee.
Tahrun patetlah vaiphu a palem teh, tangraet patetlah a khu dawk hoi pâyaw laihoi a tâco awh han. Maimae BAWIPA Cathut hai thoseh, nang hai thoseh a taki awh han.
18 Who [is] a God like Thee? taking away iniquity, And passing by the transgression of the remnant of His inheritance, He hath not retained for ever His anger, Because He — He delighteth [in] kindness.
Yon dawk hoi hlout sak e, kacawie râw, taminaw e sakpayon e hah ka ngaithoum e, pahrennae hoi ka kawi ni teh lung pou ka khuek hoeh e Cathut patetlah apimaw kaawm.
19 He doth turn back, He pitieth us, He doth subdue our iniquities, And Thou castest into the depths of the sea all their sins.
BAWIPA ni maimanaw hah bout na pahren teh, maimae yonnae pueng hah rep a coungroe han. Maimae yonnae pueng kadung poung e tuipui dawk koung a tâkhawng han.
20 Thou givest truth to Jacob, kindness to Abraham, That thou hast sworn to our fathers, from the days of antiquity!
Ayan hoi mintoenaw koe thoe na bo e patetlah, Jakop koe lawkkatanag, Abraham koe pahren lungmanae teh na poe han.
