Malachi 3

1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord whom ye seeke, shall speedely come to his Temple: euen the messenger of the couenant whom ye desire: beholde, he shall come, sayth the Lord of hostes.

Ka puencawn kan tueih tih ka mikhmuh ah longpuei a hoihaeng pawn ni he. Te vaengah nangmih aka tlap boeipa tah a bawkim la thaeng cet ni. Anih tah ha pai laeh ham na omtoem uh paipi kah puencawn ni tila caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui.

2 But who may abide the day of his comming? and who shall endure, when he appeareth? for he is like a purging fire, and like fullers sope.

Tedae amah halo nah khohnin te unim aka noeng? Amah a phoe vaengah unim aka pai? Amah he aka picai hmai bangla, aka sil lunghang bangla om.

3 And he shall sit downe to trye and fine the siluer: he shall euen fine the sonnes of Leui and purifie them as golde and siluer, that they may bring offerings vnto the Lord in righteousnesse.

Cak aka cil tih aka caihcil sak la ngol vetih Levi koca rhoek te a caihcil ni. Amih te sui bangla, cak bangla a hangcil sak ni. Te vaengah BOEIPA ham duengnah dongah khocang aka tawn la om uh ni.

4 Then shall the offerings of Iudah and Ierusalem be acceptable vnto the Lord, as in old time and in the yeeres afore.

Judah neh Jerusalem kah khocang te khosuen tue neh yan hlamat kum kah bangla BOEIPA ham a tui pah ni.

5 And I will come neere to you to iudgement, and I will be a swift witnesse against the southsayers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that wrongfully keepe backe the hirelings wages, and vexe the widowe, and the fatherlesse, and oppresse the stranger, and feare not me, sayth the Lord of hostes.

“Nangmih taengah laitloeknah neh ka tawn uh vetih hlangbi taeng neh samphaih taengah khaw, a honghi la aka toemngam taeng khaw, kutloh thapang dongah nuhmai neh cadah aka hnaemtaek taengah khaw, yinlai aka kaeng tih kai aka rhih pawt taengah khaw laipai la ka om paitok ni,” tila caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui.

6 For I am the Lord: I change not, and ye sonnes of Iaakob are not consumed.

Kai, Yahweh tah ka thovael pawt dongah nangmih Jakob ca rhoek khaw n'khap uh mahpawh.

7 From the dayes of your fathers, ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and haue not kept them: returne vnto me, and I will returne vnto you, saith the Lord of hostes: but ye saide, Wherein shall we returne?

Na pa tue lamkah parhi te ka oltlueh lamloh na nong uh tih na tuem uh moenih. “Kai taengla ha mael uh lamtah nangmih taengla ka mael ni,” tila Caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui lalah, “Balae tih m'mael eh?” na ti uh.

8 Will a man spoyle his gods? yet haue ye spoyled me: but ye say, Wherein haue we spoyled thee? In tithes, and offerings.

Hlang loh Pathen kah te a mom noek a? Tedae nangmih kai nan mom uh. Te vaengah, “Nang te metlam kan mom,” na ti uh te parha pakhat neh khosaa coeng ni.

9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye haue spoyled me, euen this whole nation.

Nangmih te tapvoepnah hmuiah thae m'phoei thil coeng. Ka koe te a pum la namtom neh aka mom khaw nangmih ni.

10 Bring ye all the tythes into the storehouse that there may be meate in mine House, and proue me nowe herewith, sayeth the Lord of hostes, if I will not open the windowes of heauen vnto you, and powre you out a blessing without measure.

Parha pakhat boeih te thakvoh im la khuen uh lamtah ka im ah buh maeh khaw om saeh. Kai he n'noemcai uh laeh. Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Nangmih ham vaan bangbuet kang ong pawt vetih nangmih soah yoethennah te a khawknah hil kan loei het mahpawt nim?

11 And I will rebuke the deuourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruite of your grounde, neither shall your vine be baren in the fielde, sayeth the Lord of hostes.

“Nangmih ham tah yoop te ka tluung vetih na khohmuen thaihtae te porhak sak mahpawh. Khohmuen ah na misur khaw hul mahpawh,” tila caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui.

12 And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a pleasant lande, sayeth the Lord of hostes.

“Nangmih te namtom boeih loh ng'uem uh vetih kongaih khohmuen la na om uh ni,” tila caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui.

13 Your wordes haue bene stout against me, sayeth the Lord: yet ye say, What haue we spoken against thee?

BOEIPA loh, “Ka taengah na ol a lalh uh lalah, 'Nang taengah balae ka thui,’ na ti uh,” a ti.

14 Ye haue saide, It is in vaine to serue God: and what profite is it that we haue kept his commandement, and that we walked humbly before the Lord of hostes?

“Pathen taengkah thothueng he a poeyoek, a tuemkoi n'ngaithuen tih caempuei BOEIPA mikhmuh ah mutu la n'caeh te balae m'mueluemnah?

15 Therefore wee count the proude blessed: euen they that worke wickednesse, are set vp, and they that tempt God, yea, they are deliuered.

Tedae mamih loh thinlen te n'uem uh bueng kolla, “Halangnah aka saii loh a thoh tih, Pathen aka noem khaw loeih uh lah,” na ti uh.

16 Then spake they that feared the Lord, euery one to his neighbour, and the Lord hearkened and heard it, and a booke of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought vpon his Name.

Te vaengah BOEIPA aka rhih hlang long tah a hui neh a thui rhoi. Tedae BOEIPA loh a hnatung tih a yaak. Te dongah BOEIPA aka rhih ham neh a ming aka moeh ham tah a mikhmuh kah poekkoepnah cabu dongah a daek pah coeng.

17 And they shall be to me, sayeth the Lord of hostes, in that day that I shall do this, for a flocke, and I will spare them, as a man spareth his owne sonne that serueth him.

Caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui coeng. Kamah loh lungthen ka saii khohnin ah tah kamah taengah ni a om uh eh. Hlang loh amah taengah aka thotat a capa te lungma a ti vanbangla amih te lungma ka ti ni.

18 Then shall you returne, and discerne betweene the righteous and wicked, betweene him that serueth God, and him that serueth him not.

Te vaengah na mael uh vetih aka dueng neh halang laklo khaw, Pathen taengah tho aka thueng neh tho aka thueng pawt khaw a laklo na hmuh bitni.
