Amos 7
1 Thus hath the Lord GOD shown to me; and, behold, he formed grasshoppers in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, lo, it was the latter growth after the king’s mowings.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he he kai n'tueng. Canghnong a moe cuek vaengah yuet a tawn ne. Te dongah manghai lotul phoeikah canghnong ni ne.
2 And it came to pass, that when they had stopped eating the grass of the land, then I said, O Lord GOD, forgive, I beseech thee: by whom shall Jacob arise? for he is small.
Khohmuen kah baelhing caak ham a khah coeng. Te dongah, “Ka Boeipa Yahovah aw, khodawkngai mai, Jakob amah he noe oeh tih ulong a thoh eh?,” ka ti.
3 The LORD repented for this: It shall not be, saith the LORD.
BOEIPA loh ko a hlawt dongah BOEIPA loh, “He he om mahpawh,” a ti.
4 Thus hath the Lord GOD shown to me: and, behold, the Lord GOD called to contend by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and ate up a part.
Ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he he kai m'hmuh sak. Ho hamla ka Boeipa Yahovah loh hmai neh a khue coeng ke. Tuidung puei te a yoop tih khoyo te a hlawp.
5 Then said I, O Lord GOD, cease, I beseech thee: by whom shall Jacob arise? for he is small.
Te vaengah, “Ka Boeipa Yahovah aw, paa mai laeh, Jakob amah he noe oeh tih ulong a thoh eh?,” ka ti.
6 The LORD repented for this: This also shall not be, saith the Lord GOD.
He ham he BOEIPA loh ko a hlawt dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh, “Te khaw om mahpawh,” a ti.
7 Thus he showed me: and, behold, the Lord stood upon a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in his hand.
He he kai n'tueng vaengah ka Boeipa tah vongtung soah mikrhael rhui neh pai tih a kut dongah mikrhael rhui om.
8 And the LORD said to me, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel: I will not again pass by them any more:
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Amos nang balae na hmuh,” n'ti nah tih, “Mikrhael rhui,” ka ti nah. Te dongah ka Boeipa, “Ka pilnam Israel lakli ah mikrhael rhui ka khueh coeng ne. Anih te pah hamla ka koei voel mahpawh.
9 And the high places of Isaac shall be desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.
Isaak kah hmuensang te pong vetih Israel kah rhokso khaw khap uh ni. Jeroboam imkhui te cunghang neh ka pai thil ni,” a ti.
10 Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.
Te vaengah Bethel khosoih Amaziah te Israel manghai Jeroboam taengla a tueih tih, “Israel im kah kotak ah Amos loh nang n'taeng thil. A ol boeih ueh ham khaw khohmuen loh a noeng moenih.
11 For thus Amos saith, Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of their own land.
Te dongah Amos loh, 'Jeroboam te cunghang dongah duek vetih Israel te a khohmuen dong lamloh a poelyoe rhoe a poelyoe ni, ' a ti,” a ti nah.
12 Also Amaziah said to Amos, O thou seer, go, flee thee away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there:
Te vaengah Amaziah loh Amos te, “Khohmu Nang te Judah khohmuen la cet lamtah yong laeh. Buh pahoi ca lamtah hnap tonghma nawn.
13 But prophesy not again any more at Bethel: for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is the king’s court.
Tedae Bethel te tonghma thil ham koep koei boeh. He he manghai rhokso neh ram kah im ni,” a ti nah.
14 Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet’s son; but I was an herdman, and a gatherer of sycamore fruit:
Te dongah Amos loh a doo tih Amaziah te, “Kai he tonghma moenih, kai he tonghma capa moenih. Kai he saeldawn ni, thaihae ni ka hloe.
15 And the LORD took me as I followed the flock, and the LORD said to me, Go, prophesy to my people Israel.
Tedae BOEIPA loh kai he boiva hnuk lamloh n'loh. Te vaengah BOEIPA loh kai te, “Cet lamtah ka pilnam Israel taengah tonghma laeh,” a ti.
16 Now therefore hear thou the word of the LORD: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and drop not thy word against the house of Isaac.
Te dongah, 'Israel taengah tonghma boel lamtah Isaak imkhui te saep boeh,’ na ti akhaw BOEIPA ol mah hnatun dae.
17 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Thy wife shall be an harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided by line; and thou shalt die in a polluted land: and Israel shall surely go from his land into captivity.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Na yuu te khopuei khuiah cukhalh vetih na capa neh na canu te cunghang dongah cungku uh ni. Na khohmuen khaw rhuihet loh a boe ni. Namah khaw diklai ah rhalawt la na duek ni. Israel te a khohmuen dongah lamloh a poelyoe rhoe a poelyoe uh ni,” a ti nah.
