< Malachi 1 >

1 THE BURDEN of the word of the LORD to Israel by Malachi.
Pakaiyin Malachi mangchan Israelte koma thu athot in ahi.
2 I have loved you, saith the LORD. Yet ye say: 'Wherein hast Thou loved us?' Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith the LORD; yet I loved Jacob;
Pakaiyin hitin a sei’e, “Keiman nangho ka hingailu jing uve” ati. Ahinlah nanghon nei donbutnuvin “Iti nei ngailutnu ham” natiuve. Pakaiyin Esau chu Jacob sopi hilou ham? Ahinlah keiman Jacob kangailun ahi.
3 But Esau I hated, and made his mountains a desolation, and gave his heritage to the jackals of the wilderness.
Esau chu ka thet in chuleh keiman a thinglhang gam chu ka suhchai peh helin, agoulona ding gam chu Sialte lhatna neldi gam kaso sahin ahi.
4 Whereas Edom saith: 'We are beaten down, but we will return and build the waste places'; thus saith the LORD of hosts: They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall be called The border of wickedness, and The people whom the LORD execrateth for ever.
Esau chilhah Edom in hiti hin hinsei jintin, keiho nei suchip deluvin ahi. Ahinlah keihon kaga phah nauva konna kahung kile kituva ka kisem phat kitdiu ahi, atiuve. Hat chungnung Pakai chun hiti hin aseije. “Amahon sapha jong leu keiman ka phetlhah peh diu ahi. Amaho chenna chu mipha lou gam kiti ding chuleh amite’u chu Pakai lunghan jing na mite” kiti ding ahiuve.
5 And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say: 'The LORD is great beyond the border of Israel.'
Nanghon a kisuhmang na chu na mit tah uva namu tengule nangin, “Tahbeh in, Pakai loupina hi Israelte gamgi kalpeh a mihon jong amu uve” tin seijin nate.
6 A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master; if then I be a father, where is My honour? and if I be a master, where is My fear? saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise My name. And ye say: 'Wherein have we despised Thy name?'
Hatchungnung Pakai chun thempu ho komah hitin aseije. “Chan apa ajabol le, soh in a pakai pa agin ding ahi. Keihi napau le na Pakai pau kahile hoi chi ham nei jabolnau, hoiche ham nei jen nau? Nanghon ka min hi nahsah louvin nabolun ahi! Ahinlah nanghon na seijun kei hon namin nahsah louva kakoi khah um natiu’ve.
7 Ye offer polluted bread upon Mine altar. And ye say: 'Wherein have we polluted thee?' In that ye say: 'The table of the LORD is contemptible.'
Nang hon ka maichama an thenglou na toh’un ahinlah nanghon iti danna nangma ka suhboh diu ham? natiuve. Nanghon Pakai maicham jana peh angaipoi natiu chu na suhbohu ahi.
8 And when ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it no evil! And when ye offer the lame and sick, is it no evil! Present it now unto thy governor; will he be pleased with thee? or will he accept thy person? saith the LORD of hosts.
Nanghon ganhing mitcho pumgo thilto a nahin to uchu dih mong’a hinam? Chuteng leh nanghon a elbai le a damlou ganhing nato uchu dih mong hinam? Nanghon hitobang ho chu nagam vaipo ho kipa thilpehin gape leu chun a kipah nadiuvem? tin hatchungnung Pakai chun a seijin ahi.
9 And now, I pray you, entreat the favour of God that He may be gracious unto us! — This hath been of your doing. — Will He accept any of your persons? saith the LORD of hosts.
Tun kipat un Pakaiyin nakhotona diuvin tao’un, ahinla hitobang thilpeh chu maichama napeh jingle Pakai chun iti khotona na musah ding ham? tin hatchungnung pen Pakai chun aseije.
10 Oh that there were even one among you that would shut the doors, that ye might not kindle fire on Mine altar in vain! I have no pleasure in you, saith the LORD of hosts, neither will I accept an offering at your hand.
Hiche houin kot hi nangho laha khat pen penin khah chahleu chun kati lheh jeng’e, chuti leh hiche thil thonlou hung kikatdoh ho hi umlou ding ahi. Ajeh chu keima na chunguvah kalung lhaipoi chuleh na thiltou jong ka sanpeh lou diu ahi, tin van sepaite Pakaiyin aseije.
11 For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same My name is great among the nations; and in every place offerings are presented unto My name, even pure oblations; for My name is great among the nations, saith the LORD of hosts.
Ahinlah namdanga kon mipiten jingkah nilhahin vanoi leiset pumpia hin gimnamtwi leh atheng hohi kamin loupina dingin a katdoh jingun kamin hi aloupi sahun chitin namtin laha hin kamin hi choisang in aum in ahi, tin hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin aseijin ahi.
12 But ye profane it, in that ye say: 'The table of the LORD is polluted, and the fruit thereof, even the food thereof, is contemptible.'
Ahinlah nangho natohdan hin ka min na sumin seuvin ahi. Ajeh chu nanghon Pakai dokhang hi kisuhboh jongle akhoh poi natiuvin thilthenglou pou na hintoh’un ahi.
13 Ye say also: 'Behold, what a weariness is it!' and ye have snuffed at it, saith the LORD of hosts; and ye have brought that which was taken by violence, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye bring the offering; should I accept this of your hand? saith the LORD.
Nanghon, kon Pakai alunglhaisah jou ding ham natiuvin ka thupeh na taitomun ahi, tin hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin aseije “Gel uvin adamlou a elbai chuleh a ki gu doh gancha pou na hin katdoh jiuve, hichu ken iti ka sanpeh ding nahiuvem? tin Pakaiyin aseije”
14 But cursed be he that dealeth craftily, whereas he hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth unto the Lord a blemished thing; for I am a great King, saith the LORD of hosts, and My name is feared among the nations.
Koi hijongleh Pakai kom’a toh dinga kitepna neija aki lomlou joh hintoh chan chu sapsetna chang ding ahi. Chutengleh chitin namtin laha kamin hi mi gin le ja kahithei ding ahi, tin hatchungnung pen Pakai chun a seije.
