1Aw nou Jakobte heutute leh Israel inko vaikhawmmite aw, Ngaikhia unla, ka honngen ahi, k a chi ahi: vaihawm dan na theih ding uh hilou hia?
1And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and ye princes of the house of Israel; Is it not for you to know judgment?
2Thil hoih na hua ua, thil hoih lou na deih ua, a vun uh na hawk sak ua, a guh ua kipanin sa na leu khia ua:
2Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;
3Ka mite sa na nei lai ua; a vun uh na lip ua, a guh uh na hihtan sak ua: ahi, bela huan ding bangin na at nen ua, sa-uina bel sunga sa at nen bang maiin.
3Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.
4Huai hun chiangin TOUPA a sam ding ua, himahleh amau a dawng kei ding: ahi, huai hun chiangin a thilhih ua a hih hoihloudan bang bang un, amau akipan a mai a sel ding.
4Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but he will not hear them: he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings.
5Ka mite hihkhialsakmi, hai a neih ua, Muanna chia kikoua, a kam ua bak loumi peuhmah do dia kisa hial mi jawlneite tungtang thu TOUPAN hichiin a chi:
5Thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that make my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that putteth not into their mouths, they even prepare war against him.
6Huaijiakin kilakna na neih louhna ding un na kiangah jan a hongtung ding; ai na san theihlouhna ding un na kiang uah mialna a hongom dinga; jawlneite adingin niin mual a khum dinga, sun leng a mau tungah kho mial ahi ding.
6Therefore night shall be unto you, that ye shall not have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them.
7Mutheimite a zum ding ua, aisansiamte a zahlak ding uh, ahi, a vek un a muk uh a hum ding uh: Pathian dawnna lah a om ngal kei a,
7Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners confounded: yea, they shall all cover their lips; for there is no answer of God.
8Himahleh Jakobte kiangah a tatlekna uh theisak ding leh Israelte kiangah a khelhna uh theisak dingin TOUPA kha jiaka thilhihtheihna te, vaihawm na te, leh hatna tein ka dim petmah ahi.
8But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the LORD, and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin.
9Nou Jakobte inkote heutte leh Israel inko vaihawmmi, vaihawmna kiha, dikna chiteng lumlet mite aw, hiai ngaikhiaunla, ka honngen ahi.
9Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and princes of the house of Israel, that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity.
10Zion sisanin a lam ua, Jerusalem ginatlounain.
10They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.
11Huaia heututen kipahman lamenin vai a hawm ua, huaia siamputen lawh lamenin a sinsak ua, huaia jawlneiten dangka lamenin ai a san uhi: huchiin leng, TOUPA a lak uah a om ka hia? thil hoih lou i tunguah a hongtung kei ding, chiin TOUPA tungah a kinga uhi.Huaijiakin Zion, noute jiakin, lou banga leileh ahi dinga, Jerusalem thil sia omkhawm ahi dinga, biakin omna tang dawi mun sang bang ahi ding.
11The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, Is not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us.
12Huaijiakin Zion, noute jiakin, lou banga leileh ahi dinga, Jerusalem thil sia omkhawm ahi dinga, biakin omna tang dawi mun sang bang ahi ding.
12Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest.
