¹Thus says Yahweh: “For three transgressions of Moab, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime;

¹TOUPAN hichiin a chi: Moab tatlekna thumte jiakin, ahi. lite jiakin, a gatna ka daisak kei ding; Edom kumpipa guhte sunu bang jena a hal jiakin;

²but I will send a fire on Moab, and it will devour the palaces of Kerioth; and Moab will die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet;

²Himahleh Moab tungah mei ka sawl dinga, Kerioth kho kumpipa guhte a kang khin dinga; huan Moab buaina leh kikou leh pengkul gingin a si dinga:

³and I will cut off the judge from their midst, and will kill all its princes with him,” says Yahweh.

³Huai lak akipan vaihawmmi ka hihmang dinga, a mi liante tengteng, amah toh ka that ding, TOUPAN a chi.

⁴Thus says Yahweh: “For three transgressions of Judah, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have rejected Yahweh’s law, and have not kept his statutes, and their lies have led them astray, after which their fathers walked;

⁴TOUPAN hichiin a chi: Juda tatlekna thumte jiakin, ahi, lite jiakin, a gawtna ka daisak kei ding; TOUPA dan a deih kei ua, a thupiakte a jui kei uh, a pate uh chih sek a juaugente un amau a pi mang jiakin:

⁵But I will send a fire on Judah, and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem.”

⁵Himahleh Juda tungah mei ka sawl dinga, Jerusalem kho kumpipa inte a kang khin ding.

⁶Thus says Yahweh: “For three transgressions of Israel, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have sold the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes;

⁶TOUPAN hichiin a chi: Israel tatlekna thumte jiakin, ahi, lite jiakin, a gawtna ka daisak kei ding; dangkasik a mi diktat a juak uleh khedap but khata mi tasam a juak jiak un:

⁷They trample on the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and deny justice to the oppressed; and a man and his father use the same maiden, to profane my holy name;

⁷Genthei lu tunga leivui duh tuntunte leh migitna te lampi hihmang te: huan, mi khat leh a pa nungak khat kiangah ka min hihnin dingin a hoh jel uhi:

⁸and they lay themselves down beside every altar on clothes taken in pledge; and in the house of their God The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “Elohim.” they drink the wine of those who have been fined.

⁸Maitam tengteng kiang china khamna puan tungah a lum jel ua, a Pathian uh ina mi a liausak mante un uain a dawn jel uh.

⁹Yet I destroyed the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.

⁹Himahleh amau maah Amorte, Sidar banga sang leh tosaw banga khauh leng ka hihmanga; tunglam akipan a gah leh anuai lam akipan a zung leng ka hihmang hi.

¹⁰Also I brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and led you forty years in the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.

¹⁰Huan, Amorte gam nei dingin Aigup ta gam akipanin ka honpi khiaa, gamdai ah kum sawmli sungin ka honpi hi.

¹¹I raised up some of your sons for prophets, and some of your young men for Nazirites. Isn’t this true, you children of Israel?” says Yahweh.

¹¹Huan, jawlnei hi dingin na tapate uh laka mi leh Nazarit te hi dingin na tangvalte uh laka mi ka bawla, Aw Israel tate aw, huchibangin ahi ka hia? TOUPAN achi.

¹²“But you gave the Nazirites wine to drink, and commanded the prophets, saying, ‘Don’t prophesy!’

¹²Himahleh Nazirit mite kiangah uain dawn ding na pia ua, jawlneite kiangah, Thu gen kei un, chiin thu na pia uh.

¹³Behold, I will crush you in your place, as a cart crushes that is full of grain.

¹³Ngai dih ua, kangtalaia buhphal sawnsip bangin, na mun uah ka hansawn ding hi.

¹⁴Flight will perish from the swift; and the strong won’t strengthen his force; neither shall the mighty deliver himself;

¹⁴Huan, mi tai hatte hatna a mang dinga, mi hatin tha a suah thei sam kei ding; mi hat mahmah leng kihumbit theikei dinga.

¹⁵neither shall he stand who handles the bow; and he who is swift of foot won’t escape; neither shall he who rides the horse deliver himself;

¹⁵Thalpeu zangmi leng a ding thei sam kei ding; pai hat thei mi leng a kihumbit theikei dinga, sakol tung tuang mi leng a kihumbut thei sam kei ding:Huai ni changin mi thilhihthei mahmah laka mi hangsan leng vuaktang in a tai mang ding. TOUPAN a chi.

¹⁶and he who is courageous among the mighty will flee away naked on that day,” says Yahweh.

¹⁶Huai ni changin mi thilhihthei mahmah laka mi hangsan leng vuaktang in a tai mang ding. TOUPAN a chi.
