Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1You are righteous, LORD, when I contend with you; yet I would like to plead a case with you. Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why are they all at ease who deal very treacherously?
1Namah taengla kang rhoe vaengah BOEIPA namah tah na dueng coeng. Tedae laitloeknah te namah taengah ka thui koinih balae tih halang rhoek kah longpuei tah thaihtak tih hnukpoh rhoek loh a hnukpoh boeih khaw a dingsuek?
2You have planted them. Yes, they have taken root. They grow. Yes, they produce fruit. You are near in their mouth, and far from their heart.
2Amih te na phung tih a yung a hlak dongah a thaih cuen. A ka nen tah na yoei uh dae a kuel lamloh hla coeng.
3But you, LORD, know me. You see me, and test my heart toward you. Pull them out like sheep for the slaughter, and prepare them for the day of slaughter.
3Tedae BOEIPA namah loh kai nan ming. Kai he nan hmuh tih ka lungbuei khaw na noem coeng. Amih te maeh la namah taengah boiva bangla bawt lamtah ngawnnah khohnin kah ham rhoe laeh.
4How long will the land mourn, and the herbs of the whole country wither? Because of the wickedness of those who dwell therein, the animals and birds are consumed; because they said, “He won’t see our latter end.”
4Diklai he me hil nim a nguekcoi vetih khohmuen boeih kah baelhing a rhae ve. A khuikah khosa rhoek kah boethae dongah rhamsa neh vaa te a khoengvoep tih, “Kaimih kah hmailong he khui pawh,” a ti uh.
5“If you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, then how can you contend with horses? Though in a land of peace you are secure, yet how will you do in the pride of the Jordan?
5Rhalkap neh na yong vaengah pataeng na ngak atah metlamlae te marhang taengah na sai eh? Ngaimong kho ah pataeng na palyal atah metlamlae Jordan kah mingthennah khuiah na saii eh?
6For even your brothers, and the house of your father, even they have dealt treacherously with you! Even they have cried aloud after you! Don’t believe them, though they speak beautiful words to you.
6Amih na manuca neh na pa imkhui long pataeng nang taengah hnukpok uh coeng. Amih te nang taengah khuk pang uh tih nang kah na then te thui uh cakhaw amih te tangnah boeh.
7“I have forsaken my house. I have cast off my heritage. I have given the dearly beloved of my soul into the hand of her enemies.
7Ka im te ka hnoo vetih ka rho te ka phap ni. Ka hinglu pumting te a thunkha kut ah ka tloeng ni.
8My heritage has become to me as a lion in the forest. She has uttered her voice against me. Therefore I have hated her.
8Kamah taengah ka rho la om dae kai taengah duup kah sathueng bangla a ol neh ha thoeng. Te dongah ni anih te ka hmuhuet.
9Is my heritage to me as a speckled bird of prey? Are the birds of prey against her all around? Go, assemble all the animals of the field. Bring them to devour.
9Ka taengkah ka rho he rhikrhek vatlung nim oe? A taengkah vatlung kilkoel nim oe? Cet uh, kohong mulhing boeih coi lamtah caak hamla lo.
10Many shepherds have destroyed my vineyard. They have trodden my portion under foot. They have made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.
10Aka dawn rhoek loh ka misurdum muep a phae tih ka hmakhuen te a suntlae uh. Ka hmakhuen sahnaih te khosoek khopong la a khueh uh.
11They have made it a desolation. It mourns to me, being desolate. The whole land is made desolate, because no one cares.
11Khopong la a khueh vaengah kamah taengah nguekcoi uh. Diklai pum he a dingrhak la pong coeng tih lungbuei ah aka dueh hlang khaw om pawh.
12Destroyers have come on all the bare heights in the wilderness; for the sword of the LORD devours from the one end of the land even to the other end of the land. No flesh has peace.
12Aka rhoelrhak ham te khosoek kah caphoei cuk boeih soah ha pawk coeng. BOEIPA kah cunghang tah diklai khobawt lamloh diklai khobawt duela a hlap tih pumsa boeih tah a ngaimong pawh.
13They have sown wheat, and have reaped thorns. They have exhausted themselves, and profit nothing. You will be ashamed of your fruits, because of the LORD’s fierce anger.”
13Cang a tuh dae hling la a ah uh dongah a kha uh akhaw hoeikhang uh pawh. BOEIPA kah thintoek thinsa lamloh na cangvuei khaw yak coeng.
14The LORD says, “Concerning all my evil neighbors, who touch the inheritance which I have caused my people Israel to inherit: Behold, I will pluck them up from off their land, and will pluck up the house of Judah from among them.
14Kamah pilnam Israel taengah ka phaeng rho dongah aka moi uh ka imben boethae boeih ham ni BOEIPA loh a thui tangkhuet. Kai loh amih te a khohmuen dong lamloh ka phuk tih Judah imkhui te amih lakli lamloh ka phuk.
15It will happen that after I have plucked them up, I will return and have compassion on them. I will bring them again, every man to his heritage, and every man to his land.
15Tedae ka phuk hnukah amih te ka mael thil vetih amih ka haidam khaw om bitni. A rho taeng neh a diklai la rhip rhip ka mael sak ni.
16It will happen, if they will diligently learn the ways of my people, to swear by my name, ‘As the LORD lives;’ even as they taught my people to swear by Baal, then they will be built up in the middle of my people.
16A tue a pha atah Baal lamloh toemngam ham ka pilnam a tukkil uh bangla mulhing BOEIPA kamah ming neh toemngam ham ka pilnam longpuei te a tukkil rhoela a tukkil ni. Ka pilnam lakli ah tlingtlawn uh ni.
17But if they will not hear, then I will pluck up that nation, plucking up and destroying it,” says the LORD.
17Tedae a hnatun uh pawt atah namtom te phuk tih milh sak ham ka phuk van ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
