1Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel, for the Lord shall enter into judgment with the inhabitants of the land: for there is no truth, and there is no mercy, and there is no knowledge of God in the land.
1Nangcae Israel caanawk, Angraeng ih lok to tahngai oh: loktang lok om ai, palungnathaih om ai boeh moe, prae thungah Sithaw panoekhaih to om ai boeh pongah, prae thung kaom kaminawk hoi Angraeng lok angaekhaih to oh boeh.
2Cursing, and lying, and killing, and theft, and adultery have overflowed, and blood hath touched blood.
2Kasae thuihaih, lok amlaihaih, kami humhaih, paqukhaih, daan ai ah zae sakhaih, angsum thai ai ah ohhaih, ahmuen kruekah athii palonghaih to oh.
3Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth in it shall languish with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of the air: yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be gathered together.
3To pongah prae loe palungsae ueloe, a thungah kaom kaminawk thazok o boih tih, moisannawk, van ih tavaanawk, tuipui thung ih tanganawk doeh dueh o boih tih.
4But yet let not any man judge: and let not a man be rebuked: for thy people are as they that contradict the priest.
4Toe mi kawbaktih doeh zaehaih net o hmah, mi doeh pakung o hmah; nang ih kaminawk loe qaima hoi angzoeh koeh kami ah oh o.
5And thou shalt fall today, and the prophet also shall fall with thee: in the night I have made thy mother to be silent.
5To pongah nang loe athun naah amthaek ueloe, tahmaa doeh nangcae hoi nawnto aqum ah amthaek tih, nam no to ka dueksak han.
6My people have been silent, because they had no knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will reject thee, that thou shalt not do the office of priesthood to me: and thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I also will forget thy children.
6Panoekhaih tawn o ai pongah, kai ih kaminawk loe amro o boeh. Panoekhaih to na vah ving boeh pongah, nang loe qaima ah kang tapom mak ai boeh; na Sithaw mah patuk ih lok to na pahnawt ving boeh pongah, na caanawk to ka pahnawt toeng han.
7According to the multitude of them so have they sinned against me: I will change their glory into shame.
7Nihcae pung o naah, ka nuiah zaehaih sak o aep aep; to pongah nihcae lensawkhaih to azathaih ah kang coengsak ving han.
8They shall eat the sins of my people, and shall lift up their souls to their iniquity.
8Nihcae loe kai kaminawk ih zaehaih to caak o, palungthin doeh nihcae zaehaih nuiah a suek o.
9And there shall be like people like priest: and I will visit their ways upon them, and I will repay them their devices.
9To pongah kaminawk nuiah sak ih baktih toengah, qaima nuiah doeh ka sak han; a caeh o ih loklamnawk baktiah nihcae to dan ka paek moe, a sak o ih hmuen baktih toengah nihcae han tangqum ka paek han.
10And they shall eat and shall not be filled: they have committed fornication, and have not ceased: because they have forsaken the Lord in not observing his law.
10Nihcae loe buh caa o tih, toe boep o mak ai; nihcae mah Angraeng to caeh o taak pongah, tangzat zaw kami baktiah om o tih, angpung o mak ai.
11Fornication, and wine, and drunkenness take away the understanding.
11Tangzat zawhhaih, misurtui hoi misurtui kangtha mah palungthin amkhraengsak.
12My people have consulted their stocks, and their staff hath declared unto them: for the spirit of fornication hath deceived them, and they have committed fornication against their God.
12Kai ih kaminawk loe a sak o cop ih krang khaeah lokdueng o moe, angmacae ih cung mah nihcae hanah lokthuih pae. Tangzat zawh koehhaih palungthin mah nihcae loklam amkhraengsak, nihcae loe angmacae ih Sithaw to caeh o taak moe, tangzat zawh o.
13They offered sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burnt incense upon the hills: under the oak, and the poplar, and the turpentine tree, because the shadow thereof was good: therefore shall your daughters commit fornication, and your spouses shall be adulteresses.
13Nihcae loe mae nuiah hmuen paekhaih to sak o, tahlip hoih pongah mae nui ih oak thingkung, poplar thingkung hoi kasang thingkung tlim ah hmuihoih to a thlaek o. To pongah na canunawk tangzat zaw o ueloe, na zunawk doeh sava laep ah zaehaih sah o tih.
14I will not visit upon your daughters when they shell commit fornication, and upon your spouses when they shall commit adultery: because themselves conversed with harlots, and offered sacrifice with the effeminate, and the people that doth not understand shall be beaten.
14Nangcae doeh tangzat zaw kaminawk hoiah nang kom o moe, tangzat zawhhaih ahmuen ah hmuenpaekhaih na sak o pongah, na canunawk mah tangzat zawh o moe, na zunawk mah sava laep ah zaehaih sak o naah, nihcae to dan ka paek mak ai. To pongah panoekhaih tawn ai kaminawk loe amtimh o tih.
15If thou play the harlot, O Israel, at least let not Juda offend: and go ye not into Galgal, and come not up into Bethaven, and do not swear: The Lord liveth.
15Nang, Israel loe tangzat zaw kami hoi kanawm na caeng, toe Judah to zaesak hmah; nang loe Gilgal ah angzo hmah, Beth Aven ah doeh caeh hmah loe, Angraeng loe hing, tiah doeh lokkamhaih to sah hmah.
16For Israel hath gone astray like a wanton heifer: now will the Lord feed them, as a lamb in a spacious place.
16Israel caanawk loe maitaw tala hnuk angnawn baktiah hnuk angnawn o; vaihi loe nihcae to Angraeng mah qam kahoih ahmuen kakawk ah pacah ih tuu baktiah pacah mak ai boeh.
17Ephraim is a partaker with idols, let him alone.
17Ephraim loe sakcop ih krangnawk to bok pongah, angmabueng ah om nasoe.
18Their banquet is separated, they have gone astray by fornication: they that should have protected them have loved to bring shame upon them.
18Nihcae loe mu kathaw tui to naek o moe, anghak ai ah tangzat to zawh o: anih ukkungnawk loe azat thok hmuen to sak han koeh o.
19The wind hath bound them up in its wings, and they shall be confounded because of their sacrifices.
19Anih loe pakhraeh hoi nawnto takhi mah hmut ving tih, nihcae loe a sak o ih hmuen pongah azathaih tong o tih.
