< Jeremiah 32 >
1 Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah angraenghaih saning hato haih, Nebuchadnezzar angraenghaih saning hathlai tazetto naah, Jeremiah khaeah Angraeng ih lok to angzoh.
The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah — it [is] the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar,
2 To nathuem ah Babylon siangpahrang ih misatuh kaminawk mah Jerusalem to takui o, tahmaa Jeremiah loe Judah siangpahrang im thungah, paung o.
And then the forces of the king of Babylon are laying siege against Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet hath been shut up in the court of the prison that [is] in the house of the king of Judah,
3 Angraeng mah thuisak ih lok to tahmaa Jeremiah mah kaminawk boih khaeah thuih pae pongah, Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah mah anih to thongim thungah paung; siangpahrang Zedekiah mah tahmaa Jeremiah khaeah, Tipongah hae vangpui hae Babylon siangpahrang ban ah ka paek han, anih mah hae vangpui hae laa tih,
Where Zedekiah king of Judah hath shut him up, saying, 'Wherefore art thou prophesying, saying, Thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he hath captured it;
4 Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah loe, Khaldian kaminawk ih ban thung hoiah loih mak ai, Babylon siangpahrang ban ah paek tih, nihnik loe mikhmai kangtong ah lokthui hoi ueloe, mik hoi angkhen hoi tih;
And Zedekiah king of Judah doth not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but is certainly given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and his mouth hath spoken with his mouth, and his eyes see his eyes,
5 anih mah Zedekiah to Babylon ah hoi tih, anih ka khen ai karoek to Zedekaih loe to ahmuen ah om tih: Khaldian kaminawk hoi misa nang tuh hoi tih, toe na pazawk mak ai, tiah Angraeng mah thuih, tiah na thuih loe? tiah a naa.
And [to] Babylon he leadeth Zedekiah, and there he is till My inspecting him, — an affirmation of Jehovah — because ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye do not prosper.'
6 To naah Jeremiah mah, Angraeng ih lok kai khaeah angzoh,
And Jeremiah saith, 'A word of Jehovah hath been unto me saying,
7 Khenah, nam pa ih amnawk Shallum ih capa Hanamel to nang khaeah angzo ueloe, Anathoth ah kaom kai ih lawk hmuen to qan ah, nang loe anghnai koek acaeng ah na oh pongah, na qan thaih, tiah na thui tih, tiah ang naa.
Lo, Hanameel son of Shallum, thine uncle, is coming unto thee, saying, Buy for thee my field that [is] in Anathoth, for thine [is] the right of redemption — to buy.
8 Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, ampa kanawk ih capa Hanamel loe angraeng imthung ih thongim toep kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen ah kai khaeah angzoh, Benjamin prae, Anathoth ih ka lawk to qan ah; nang loe qawktoep thaihaih, akrang thaihaih na tawnh, nangmah hanah qan ah, tiah ang naa. To naah hae loe Angraeng ih lok ni, tiah ka panoek pongah;
And Hanameel, my uncle's son, cometh in unto me, according to the word of Jehovah, unto the court of the prison, and saith unto me, 'Buy, I pray thee, my field that [is] in Anathoth, that [is] in the land of Benjamin, for thine [is] the right of possession, and thine of redemption — buy for thee.' And I know that it [is] the word of Jehovah,
9 Anathoth ah kaom kam pa kanawk ih capa Hanamel ih lawk to ka qanh, anih hanah phoisa shekel hathlai sarihto ka noek pae.
And I buy the field, that [is] in Anathoth, from Hanameel, my uncle's son, and I weigh to him the money — seventeen shekels of silver.
10 Ka qan ih hmuen nuiah ahmin ka tarik, angmathaih ka sak, hnukung kaminawk to ka kawk moe, tangka to tahhaih hoiah ka noek pae.
And I write in a book, and seal, and cause witnesses to testify, and weigh the silver in balances;
11 Hmuen qanhaih caqam to ka lak moe, sakzong ih atawk baktih toengah, catui daeng ih caqam hoi catui daeng ai ih caqam kawpi to ka lak hmaek,
And I take the purchase-book, the sealed one, according to law and custom, and the open one.
12 to pacoengah kam pa kanawk ih capa Hanamel, hmuen qan naah hnukung ah kaom kaminawk, angraeng imthung ih thongim toep kami ohhaih ahmuen ah anghnu Judah kaminawk boih mik hnukah, Mahseiah capa Neriah capa Baruk khaeah ka paek.
And I give the purchase-book unto Baruch son of Neriah, son of Maaseiah, before the eyes of Hanameel, my uncle's son, and before the eyes of the witnesses, those writing in the purchase-book, before the eyes of all the Jews who are sitting in the court of the prison.
13 Nihcae hmaa ah Baruk khaeah,
And I charge Baruch before their eyes, saying,
14 misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah, Hmuen qan panoekhaih ah kaom hae caqam, caqamnawk hae la ah loe, catui daeng ih caqam hoi catui daeng ai ih caqam to la hmaek ah; saning kasawk kaan hanah, long laom thungah suem ah, tiah ang naa, tiah ka thuih pae.
'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Take these books, this purchase-book, both the sealed one and the open one, and thou hast put them in an earthen vessel, that they may remain many days;
15 Kaminawk mah hae prae ah im lawk hoi misur takhanawk to qan o let tih, tiah misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah thuih, tiah ang naa.
For thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Again are houses and fields and vineyards bought in this land.'
16 Neriah capa Baruk khaeah hmuen qanhaih caqam ka paek pacoengah, Angraeng khaeah lawk ka thuih,
And I pray unto Jehovah — after my giving the purchase-book unto Baruch son of Neriah — saying,
17 Aw, Angraeng Sithaw! Khenah, na thacakhaih hoiah ban na payangh moe, long hoi van to na sak, na sak thai ai ih hmuen tidoeh om ai;
'Ah, Lord Jehovah, lo, Thou hast made the heavens and the earth by Thy great power, and by Thy stretched-out arm; there is nothing too wonderful for Thee:
18 nang loe asing asang kaminawk khaeah amlunghaih to nam tuengsak, toe ampanawk zaehaih doeh a caanawk lu nuiah na kraksak; nang loe lensawk, thacak Sithaw ah na oh, na hmin loe misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, tiah oh.
Doing kindness to thousands, and recompensing iniquity of fathers into the bosom of their sons after them; God, the great, the mighty, Jehovah of Hosts [is] His name,
19 Na poekhaih loe thuk, na sak ih hmuennawk doeh lensawk; kami boih a caehhaih loklam hoi a sak ih hmuennawk baktih toengah pathok hanah, kaminawk caehhaih loklamnawk to na khet parui boih;
Great in counsel, and mighty in act, in that Thine eyes are open on all the ways of the sons of Adam, to give to each according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:
20 Izip prae ah angmathaih hoi dawnrai hmuen to na sak, vaihni ni khoek to, Israel prae thung hoi kalah kaminawk salakah na sak vop moe, vaihni ni khoek to na hmin amthanghaih to oh poe vop.
In that thou hast done signs and wonders in the land of Egypt unto this day, and in Israel, and among men, and Thou dost make for Thee a name as [at] this day.
21 Angmathaih, dawnraihaih, na ban thacakhaih, na ban payuenghaih, zit kaom thacakhaih hoiah ni nangmah ih Israel kaminawk to Izip prae thung hoiah na zaehhoih.
'And Thou bringest forth Thy people Israel from the land of Egypt, with signs and with wonders, and by a strong hand, and by a stretched-out arm, and by great fear,
22 Kam panawk khaeah paek han, tiah ka sak ih lokkamhaih baktih toengah, khoitui hoi tahnutui longhaih, hae prae hae nihcae hanah na paek;
And thou givest to them this land that thou didst swear to their fathers to give to them, a land flowing with milk and honey,
23 nihcae mah akun o moe, toep o; toe na lok tahngai o ai; na patuk ih kaalok doeh pazui o ai; sak han na paek ih hmuen maeto doeh sah o ai; to pongah kahoih ai hmuennawk boih nihcae nuiah na phaksak boeh.
And they come in, and possess it, and they have not hearkened to Thy voice, and in Thy law have not walked, all that which Thou didst lay a charge on them to do they have not done, and Thou dost proclaim [to] them all this evil.
24 Khenah, vangpui lak hanah nihcae loe misa abuephaih long khaw thung hoiah angzoh o boeh; sumsen, khokhahaih, kasae nathaih hoiah misa to tuk o pongah, vangpui loe Khaldian kaminawk ban ah paek boeh; na thuih ih lok baktiah vaihi phak boeh.
'Lo, the mounts — they have come in to the city to capture it, and the city hath been given into the hand of the Chaldeans who are fighting against it, because of the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence; and that which Thou hast spoken hath come to pass, and lo, Thou art seeing;
25 Aw Angraeng Sithaw, Khaldian kaminawk ban ah vangpui to ka paek cadoeh, phoisa hoiah lawk to qan ah loe, hnukungnawk to kawk ah, tiah nang thuih, tiah a naa.
Yet Thou hast said unto me, O Lord Jehovah, Buy for thee the field with money, and cause witnesses to testify — and the city hath been given into the hand of the Chaldeans!'
26 To pacoengah Angraeng ih lok Jeremiah khaeah angzoh,
And the word of Jehovah is unto Jeremiah, saying:
27 khenah, Kai loe kaminawk boih ih Angraeng Sithaw ah ka oh; Ka sak thai ai ih hmuen oh maw?
'Lo, I [am] Jehovah, God of all flesh: For Me is anything too wonderful?
28 Angraeng mah, Khenah, hae vangpui loe khaldian kaminawk ban ah, Babylon siangpahrang Nebuchadnezzar ban ah ka paek, anih mah la tih boeh, tiah thuih.
'Therefore, thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am giving this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and he hath captured it;
29 Hae vangpui katuh, Khaldian kaminawk to angzo o ueloe, hae vangpui hae hmai hoiah thlaek o tih; kai palungphuisak hanah, imphu ah Baal hanah hmuihoih to thlaek o moe, kalah sithawnawk mah naek hanah tui kraih pae o ih imnawk to hmai mah kang boih tih.
And come in have the Chaldeans who are fighting against this city, and they have set this city on fire, and have burned it, and the houses on whose roofs they made perfume to Baal, and poured out libations to other gods, so as to provoke Me to anger.
30 Israel hoi Judah kaminawk loe nawkta nathuem hoi boeh ni ka hmaa ah kahoih ai hmuen to a sak o; angmacae ban hoi sak o ih hmuen hoiah kai palung ang phui o sak, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
For the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah have been only doing evil in Mine eyes, from their youth; for the sons of Israel are only provoking Me with the work of their hands — an affirmation of Jehovah.
31 Hae vangpui loe sak tangsuek na hoi vaihni ni khoek to kai palungphuisak vangpui hoi kanung parai palungpuisak vangpui ah oh pongah, ka mik hnukhaih ahmuen hoiah ka pathuih ving han,
'For a cause of Mine anger, and a cause of My fury, hath this city been to Me, even from the day that they built it, and unto this day — to turn it aside from before My face,
32 Israel hoi Judah kaminawk ih siangpahrangnawk, ukkung angraengnawk, qaimanawk, tahmaanawk, Judah kaminawk, Jerusalem ah kaom kaminawk loe a sak o ih kahoih ai hmuennawk boih hoiah kai palung ang phui o sak.
Because of all the evil of the sons of Israel, and of the sons of Judah that they have done, so as to provoke Me — they, their kings, their heads, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
33 Kai khaeah angqoi o ai, kai to hnuk ang qoi o taak ving, khawnthaw ah kang thawk moe, nihcae to ka patuk, toe nihcae mah ka thuitaekhaih lok to tahngai o ai.
And they turn unto Me the neck, and not the face, and teaching them, rising early and teaching, and they are not hearkening to accept instruction.
34 Ka hmin hoi kawk ih im to amhnongsak hanah, panuet kaom hmuennawk to a suek o boeh.
'And they set their abominations in the house over which My name is called, so as to defile it;
35 A capanawk hoi a canunawk to Molek sithaw khaeah hmai angbawnhaih ah tathlang hanah, Hinnom capa ih azawn ah kaom, Baal hmuensang to a sak o; Judah kaminawk to zaesak moe, hae baktih panuet thok hmuen to sak hanah nihcae khaeah ka thui pae ai, poek doeh ka poek ai.
And they build the high places of Baal, that [are] in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through to Molech, which I did not command them, nor did it come up on my heart to do this abomination, so as to cause Judah to sin.
36 Toe sumsen, khokhahaih, kasae nathaih mah, Babylon siangpahrang ban ah paek tih, tiah na thuih o ih, hae vangpui kawng pongah, Israel Angraeng Sithaw mah hae tiah thuih;
'And now, therefore, thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, concerning this city, of which ye are saying, It hath been given into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword, and by famine, and by pestilence,
37 Khenah, palung ka phui moe, palungphui parai pongah, ka haek ih prae thung boih hoiah nihcae to ka tacuu let han; nihcae to hae ahmuen ah ka hoih let moe, kamongah ka ohsak let han.
Lo, I am gathering them out of all the lands whither I have driven them in Mine anger, and in My fury, and in great wrath, and I have brought them back unto this place, and have caused them to dwell confidently;
38 Nihcae loe kai ih kami ah om o tih, kai doeh nihcae ih Sithaw ah ka oh han.
and they have been to Me for a people, and I am to them for God;
39 Nihcae ih caa khosak hoih o moe, kai ang zit o poe hanah, maeto ah amhonghaih palungthin to ka paek han.
and I have given to them one heart, and one way, to fear Me all the days, for good to them, and to their sons after them:
40 Nihcae hoi dungzan lokmaihaih ka sak moe, nihcae nuiah kahoih hmuen sakhaih to ka toengh sut mak ai; kai khae hoi tacawt o han ai ah, nihcae khaeah kai zithaih palungthin to ka suek han.
and I have made for them a covenant age-during, in that I turn not back from after them for My doing them good, and My fear I put in their heart, so as not to turn aside from me;
41 Ue, nihcae han kahoih hmuen sakhaih pongah kang hoe, ka palungthin boih, ka hinghaih boih hoiah nihcae to hae prae ah kang doetsak han.
and I have rejoiced over them to do them good, and have planted them in this land in truth, with all my heart, and with all My soul.
42 Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; hae kaminawk nuiah kalen parai raihaih ka phaksak baktih toengah, nihcae khaeah ka paek ih lokkamhaih to kang coengsak han.
'For thus said Jehovah: As I brought in unto this people all this great evil, so I am bringing in on them all the good that I am speaking concerning them;
43 Kami om ai, moi kasan doeh om ai ah pong sut boeh; Khaldian prae kaminawk ban ah paek ving boeh, tiah na thuih o ih hae prae thungah lawknawk to na qan o let vop tih.
and bought hath been the field in this land of which ye are saying, A desolation it [is], without man and beast, it hath been given into the hand of the Chaldeans.

Fields with money they buy, so as to write in a book, and to seal, and to cause witnesses to testify, in the land of Benjamin, and in suburbs of Jerusalem, and in cities of Judah, and in cities of the hill-country, and in cities of the low country, and in cities of the south, for I turn back their captivity — an affirmation of Jehovah.'
