¹Thus the Lord Jehovah showed me: and, behold, a basket of summer fruit.

¹Hichibangin TOUPA PATHIANIN a honensaka; huan, en dih ua, nipi theibawm nahi hi.

²And he said, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then said Jehovah unto me, The end is come upon my people Israel; I will not again pass by them any more.

²Huan, aman, Amos, bang ahia na muh? a chi a. Huan, ken, Nipi theibawm, ka chi a. Huan, TOUPAN ka kiangah, Ka mi Israelte tungah tawpna a hongtungta; amau ka kheng nawnta kei dinga, a chi a.

³And the songs of the temple shall be wailings in that day, saith the Lord Jehovah: the dead bodies shall be many: in every place shall they cast them forth with silence.

³TOUPA PATHIANIN, Huai ni chiangin biakin late kikou vomvom ahi dinga; mun chihah paulouin a pai khe ding uh, a chi a.

⁴Hear this, O ye that would swallow up the needy, and cause the poor of the land to fail,

⁴Hiai ngaikhiain, AW; tasamte ne bei nuama; gam mi genthei ihmang nuamte aw,

⁵saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell grain? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and dealing falsely with balances of deceit;

⁵Buh ka juak theihna ding un kha thak chikchia mang dinga, tangbuang buh ka suahkhiak theihna ding ua khwlni chikchia mang ding ahia, chiin; ephah hihneua sekel hihlian diklou pia khemna buk zanga;

⁶that we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes, and sell the refuse of the wheat?

⁶Dangka sika mi genthei leia, mi ta samte khedap but khata leia, buhsi i juak theihna dingin, chiin.

⁷Jehovah hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works.

⁷TOUPAN, Jakob thupina louin a ki chiama, Pellouin a nasep himhim ka mangngilh het kei ding, chiin.

⁸Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? yea, it shall rise up wholly like the River; and it shall be troubled and sink again, like the River of Egypt.

⁸Hiai jiakin gam a lingin a sunga om peuhmahte a lungkham sin kei ua hia? A hi, Lui bangin a hongkhang vek dinga; Aigupta gam Lui bangin a hongbuaiin a kiam ding.

⁹And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord Jehovah, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day.

⁹Huan, TOUPA PATHIANIN, huai ni chiangin, hichi a honghi dinga, Sun laiin ni ka tumsak dinga, ni sat laiin lei ka mialsak ding hi.

¹⁰And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning for an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day.

¹⁰Na ankuangluite uh lungkhamna leh na la tengteng uh kahna ka suaksak dinga; kawng tengteng saiip puan ka teng sak dinga, lu chih sipah giauna ka hontungsak ding; huan, tapa tang neih sun adingin lungkhamna bang leh, a tawona khatna ni bangin ka bawl ding hi.

¹¹Behold, the days come, saith the Lord Jehovah, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of Jehovah.

¹¹TOUPA PATHIANIN, Ngai dih ua, nite a hongtung lellel; huaini chiangin gamah kial ka sawl dinga, an kialna hi luin, tui kialna hi sam louin, TOUPA thu theihna kial pen.

¹²And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east; they shall run to and fro to seek the word of Jehovah, and shall not find it.

¹²Huan, tuipi akipanin tuipiah leh mal akipan suahlamah leng a tambak ding ua; TOUPA thu zong dingin ning chihah a tai ding ua, a mu kei uh.

¹³In that day shall the fair virgins and the young men faint for thirst.

¹³Huai ni chiangin nungak hoih leh tangvalte dangtakin a bah ding uh.Samari kho khelhna loua kichiama, Aw, Dan, na Pathian a hing bangin, leh, Beerseba kho lampi a hing bangin, chite, huai mite leng a puk ding ua, a thou nawn het kei ding uh.

¹⁴They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, As thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, As the way of Beer-sheba liveth; they shall fall, and never rise up again.

¹⁴Samari kho khelhna loua kichiama, Aw, Dan, na Pathian a hing bangin, leh, Beerseba kho lampi a hing bangin, chite, huai mite leng a puk ding ua, a thou nawn het kei ding uh.
