Jeremiah 24

1 Judah siangpahrang Jehoiakim ih capa Jekoniah hoi angmah ih angraengnawk, thing tok sah kaminawk, sum daengh kop kaminawk to Babylon siangpahrang Nebukchadnezzar mah Jerusalem hoiah Babylon ah misong ah hoih pacoengah, Angraeng ih tempul hmaa ah, Angraeng mah, thaiduet thaih benthang hnetto ang hnuksak.

Jehovah hath shewed me, and lo, two baskets of figs, appointed before the temple of Jehovah, — after the removing by Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, of Jeconiah, son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, and the heads of Judah, and the artisan, and the smith, from Jerusalem, when he bringeth them into Babylon —

2 Benthang maeto pongah loe, athai tangsuek thaiduet thaih baktiah kahoih parai thaiduet thaih to oh; kalah benthang maeto pongah loe, caak kahoih ai, kasae parai thaiduet thaih to oh.

In the one basket [are] figs very good, like the first-ripe figs, and in the other basket [are] figs very bad, that are not eaten for badness.

3 Angraeng mah, Jeremiah timaw na hnuk? tiah ang naa; kai mah, Thaiduet thaih, tiah ka naa. Kahoih thaiduet thaih loe hoih parai, kahoih ai thaiduet thaih loe set parai pongah caak han hoih ai, tiah ka naa.

And Jehovah saith unto me, 'What art thou seeing, Jeremiah?' and I say, 'Figs, the good figs [are] very good, and the bad [are] very bad, that are not eaten for badness.'

4 To naah Angraeng ih lok to kai khaeah angzoh,

And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:

5 Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah, Hae ahmuen hoiah Khaldian prae ah ka patoeh ih misong ah kalaem Judah kaminawk loe hae ih thaiduet thaih kahoih baktiah angmacae hoihaih to hnu o tih, tiah thuih.

Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Like these good figs so do I acknowledge The removed of Judah — that I sent from this place, [To] the land of the Chaldeans — for good.

6 Nihcae khosak hoih thai hanah mik hoi ka toep moe, nihcae to hae prae ah ka hoih let han; nihcae to kam rosak mak ai, kang doetsak han; nihcae to ka phongh mak ai, ka thling han.

And I have set Mine eyes on them for good, And have brought them back to this land, And built them up, and I throw not down, And have planted them, and pluck not up.

7 Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh, tiah panoek thaihaih palung nihcae khaeah ka paek han; nihcae loe kai ih kami ah om o tih, kai doeh nihcae ih Sithaw ah ka oh han; nihcae loe palungthin boih hoi kai khaeah amlaem o let tih.

And have given to them a heart to know Me, For I [am] Jehovah, And they have been to Me for a people, And I am to them for God, For they turned back unto Me with all their heart.

8 Toe Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah hoi angmah ih angraengnawk, kanghmat Jerusalem kaminawk, kanghmat hae prae thung ih kaminawk hoi Izip prae ah kaom kaminawk loe kasae parai, caak kahoih ai, thaiduet thaih baktiah ka ohsak han.

And like the bad figs, that are not eaten for badness, Surely thus said Jehovah: So do I make Zedekiah king of Judah, And his heads, and the remnant of Jerusalem, Who are left in this land, And who are dwelling in the land of Egypt,

9 Nihcae raihaih paek moe, sethaih ka tongsak hanah, long prae boih ah ka thak han; ka haek ih ahmuen kruekah, kasaethuihaih, kami mah pronghaih, zoehhaih hoi tangoenghaih a tongh o hanah, nihcae to prae kruekah ka haek han.

And I have given them for a trembling, For evil — to all kingdoms of the earth, For a reproach, and for a simile, For a byword, and for a reviling, In all the places whither I drive them.

10 Angmacae hoi ampanawk khaeah ka paek ih prae thung hoiah nihcae amrosak ai karoek to, sumsen, khokhahaih, kasae nathaih to ka phaksak han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.

And I have sent against them the sword, The famine and the pestilence, Till their consumption from off the ground, That I gave to them and to their fathers!
