Micah 1
1 Pakaiyin hiche thuhi Jotham phatlaija Micah henga anasei ahi. Ahaz le Hezekiah chu Judate leng ana hilhonin, Samaria le Jerusalem chungchang thua thil anamu sahin ahi.
This is the word of Yahweh that came to Micah the Morashtite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
2 Kigosan umun! Vannoija um chitin namtin jousen, ngaijuvin nangho vannoija um mitin vaipi jousen, Vo leisetle asunga umjousen ngaisoh keijun, Pakai thaneipenin Houin thenga konin nang ho dounan hettohsah in apang jinge.
Listen, all you peoples. Listen, earth, and all that is in you. Let the Lord Yahweh be a witness against you, the Lord from his holy temple.
3 Ven! Pakai ahung’e! A van mun alaltouna a hin dalhaha, leiset munsang lai jouse ahin chotpha ding ahi.
Look, Yahweh comes out of his place; he will come down and tread on the high places of the earth.
4 Molsang jouse akengto noija jolsoh ding, phaichama longluta, khoilu meiyin akah jolla, asuhlanga twi kisunglha bang ding ahi.
The mountains will melt under him; the valleys will break apart, like wax before fire, like waters that are poured down a steep place.
5 Ipi-jeh'a hitobang thil sohham! Ajeh chu Israel galbol jeh le Juda insung pumpi chonset jeh ahi – a nampumpi chonset jeh ahi; Israel galbol hi koi pentah themmo kichansah ding ham? Samaria akhopiu! A milim doi hounau khopi lailung hoilai ham? Akhopiu Jerusalem ahi.
All this is because of the Jacob's transgression, and because of the sins of the house of Israel. What is Jacob's transgression? Is it not Samaria? What is Judah's high place? Is it not Jerusalem?
6 Hijeh chun, kei Pakaiyin Samaria kho hi tollhanga alomchanga kasetna min lengpilei bolna bepma kaumsaha, lhang chunga songpal jouse jong phaichama katollhaha, khombul jouse jong kakal doh ding ahi.
“I will make Samaria a heap of ruins in the field, a place for planting vineyards, and I will pour her stones down into the valley and I will uncover her foundations.
7 Khopi sunga milim doi kisem thuho jouse jong kavoh chip ding, alodoh agou jouse jong meiya kahal vamding, ajeh chu hiti ho jouse chu aboncha notiho mana kidong khoma kimu ahi.
All her carved figures will be broken to pieces, and all her gifts that she received will be burned with fire, and I will destroy all her idols. Since she gathered her gifts from the wages of prostitutes, they will become the wages of prostitutes again.”
8 Hijeh chun keiman lunghemin pul dou’inge. Kengchot se lou in keng keovin vahle ing’e. Sial bangin ham- ingting, chule sumbupi bangin lunghem- inge.
For this reason I will lament and wail; I will go barefoot and naked; I will wail like the jackals and mourn like owls.
9 Ajeh chu Pakaiyin kamite abolsetna ma ha hi amelsebeh seh jeng tan, adamdohna ding ahahsabeh seh jenge, kamite Jerusalem kelkot phung ahung geitai.
For her wound is incurable, for it has come to Judah. It has reached the gate of my people, to Jerusalem.
10 Igalmi Gath jah a seipoh hihhel un, Beth Lephrah a jong kap hih hellun kinepna vetsahnan natahsao leivui laha kilihle leovin.
Do not tell about it in Gath; do not weep at all. At Beth Leaphrah I roll myself in the dust.
11 Nangho Shaphir- a um mite, sohchang kikai mong bangin, sagohkeole jahchan kile kit tauvin. Nang ho Zaanan mite kulpia konin potdohdatauvin. Nangho Beth-ezel mite lunghem un, nakhopiu khombul jouse akilon soh tah jeh in.
Pass by, inhabitants of Shaphir, in nakedness and shame. The inhabitants of Zaanan do not come out. Beth Ezel mourns, for their protection is taken away.
12 Nangho Maroth a um miten vang panpina hung ding nangah lallheh jengui, ahinlah Pakaiya kona khaveng vung thutanna ahung lenglhan, Jerusalem kotpi phung ahung geitai.
For the inhabitants of Maroth wait anxiously for good news, because disaster has come down from Yahweh to the gates of Jerusalem.
13 Lachish khoa chengte, nasakol kangtalai a kaina ding bupeh unlang lhauvin, nangho Juda mite, khopi masapen nahiuve, nanghon Jeusalem chonsetna a napuilut’u ahitai.
Harness the chariot to the team of horses, inhabitants of Lachish. You, Lachish, were the beginning of sin for the daughter of Zion, for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.
14 Moresheth-gat jong chu kilhahna ding thilpeh tilou hoidoh nading umlou ahitai. Aczib khopi mite, Israel lengpa dinga lheplhaha hung pang ding nahitauve.
So you will give a parting gift to Moresheth Gath; the town of Akzib will disappoint the kings of Israel.
15 O Mareshah mite nakhopi jou ding galmi nahenga kahinpuilut ding ahi, chule Israel lamkaiho, Israel loupina chu Adulam henga che ding ahitai.
I will again bring a conqueror to you, inhabitants of Mareshah; the splendor of Israel will come to Adullam.
16 Oh Juda mite ho, lunghem vetsahnan, nalujang sam kivotolunlang, muthong bangin lutol deldullin um uvin, ajeh chu nachate nahenga kona migama sohchanga kikai mong ding ahitauve.
Shave your head and cut off your hair for the children in whom you delight. Make yourself as bald as eagles, for your children will go into exile from you.
