1The word of Jehovah that came to Micah the Morashtite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
1Juda kumpipa Jotham te, Ahaz te, Hezekia te lal laia Moreseth mi Mika kianga TOUPA thu hongtung, Samari khua leh Jerusalem kho tungtang thu-a amuh.
2Hear, ye peoples, all of you: hearken, O earth, and all that therein is: and let the Lord Jehovah be witness against you, the Lord from his holy temple.
2Nou chite aw, na vek un ja unla: aw lei leh a sunga om tengteng aw, ngaikhia un: TOUPA PATHIAN, TOUPA a biakin siangthou akipanin, nou hondemin na tung thu theipa hi heh.
3For, behold, Jehovah cometh forth out of his place, and will come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.
3Ngai dih ua. TOUPA a mun akipan in a hongpawta, a hongpai suk dinga, lei mun sangte a chil ngal sina.
4And the mountains shall be melted under him, and the valleys shall be cleft, as wax before the fire, as waters that are poured down a steep place.
4Mei kiang china khuainun bang leh mun kena tui kikhoh khia bang maiin, tangte a nuaiah a zul dinga, guamte a khang tat ding.
5For the transgression of Jacob is all this, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? is it not Samaria? and what are the high places of Judah? are they not Jerusalem?
5hiaite tengteng Jakobte tatlekna jiak leh Israel inkote khelhna jiak ahi. Jakobte tatlekna bang ahia oi? Samari ahi kei maw? Juda mun sangte bang ahia? Jerusalem ahi kei maw?
6Therefore I will make Samaria as a heap of the field, [and] as places for planting vineyards; and I will pour down the stones thereof into the valley, and I will uncover the foundations thereof.
6huaijiakin Samari bel gama thil se om khawm bangin ka bawl dinga. grep huan mun bang maiin: huan, huailai muna suangte lui guam lamah ka khuk khe dinga, suangphumte ka dawksak ding.
7And all her graven images shall be beaten to pieces, and all her hires shall be burned with fire, and all her idols will I lay desolate; for of the hire of a harlot hath she gathered them, and unto the hire of a harlot shall they return.
7A milim siam tawm tengteng sukkhap vek ahi dinga, a kijuakna mante meia hal mang ahi dinga, a milim tengteng ka hihgawp ding: kijuakna man ding in a la vek ngala, ki juakna man mahin a pang nawn ding uh.
8For this will I lament and wail; I will go stripped and naked; I will make a wailing like the jackals, and a lamentation like the ostriches.
8Hiai jiakin ka kap dinga, ka mau vongvong dinga, kisuah leh vuaktangin ka om ding: sehalte bangin ka kihou dinga, vangawnsaute bang in ka thum ding hi.
9For her wounds are incurable; for it is come even unto Judah; it reacheth unto the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
9A liamna hihdam theih ahi kei: Juda gam a tungta ngala: ka mite kongpi, Jerusalem hial leng a tung hi.
10Tell it not in Gath, weep not at all: at Beth-le-aphrah have I rolled myself in the dust.
10Gath khua ah gen unlam kap het kei un; Beth-le-aphra khuaah leivui ah ka kitholhta ahi.
11Pass away, O inhabitant of Shaphir, in nakedness and shame: the inhabitant of Zaanan is not come forth; the wailing of Beth-ezel shall take from you the stay thereof.
11Aw Saphir mi, vaktang leh zum tak in pai mang in: Zaanan mi a hongpawt kei; Betezel kahna in nang a hon din tuh ding.
12For the inhabitant of Maroth waiteth anxiously for good, because evil is come down from Jehovah unto the gate of Jerusalem.
12Maroth miin tan hoih tan a ngaklah tuntun hi, TOUPA kianga kipan thil hoih lou Jerusalem kongpi chin tana a hongtun suk jiakin.
13Bind the chariot to the swift steed, O inhabitant of Lachish: she was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion; for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.
13Aw Lakis mi, kangtalai sakol hattak hen den in: amah pen Zion tanu khelhna kipatna ahi. Israelte tatlekna lah nanga muh ahi ngala.
14Therefore shalt thou give a parting gift to Moresheth-gath: the houses of Achzib shall be a deceitful thing unto the kings of Israel.
14Huaijiakin Moreseth-gat kiangah kikhakna thilpiak na piak ding ahi: Akzib inte Israel am kumpipate a din khemna ahi ding.
15I will yet bring unto thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah, him that shall possess thee: the glory of Israel shall come even unto Adullam.
15Aw maresa mi, nang honzoutu na kiang ah konpi ding: Israelte thupina Adullam phain a hongpai ding.Kimet giau inla, na ta deihtakte jiakin kimet giau in: musane bang in kihihgiau semsemin; na kianga kipana sala piin lah a omta ngal ua.
16Make thee bald, and cut off thy hair for the children of thy delight: enlarge thy baldness as the eagle; for they are gone into captivity from thee.
16Kimet giau inla, na ta deihtakte jiakin kimet giau in: musane bang in kihihgiau semsemin; na kianga kipana sala piin lah a omta ngal ua.
