< Jeremiah 31 >

1 Te vaengkah a tue ah BOEIPA kah olphong om coeng. Israel cako boeih kah Pathen la ka om vetih amih te kamah taengah pilnam la om uh ni.
Thus has the Lord said concerning MOAB, Woe to Nabau! for it has perished: Cariathaim is taken: Amath and Agath are put to shame.
2 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Cunghang kah a caknoi pilnam tah khosoek ah mikdaithen la a hmuh vetih Israel amah te hoep ham ni a pongpa eh.
There is no longer any healing for Moab, [nor] glorying in Esebon: he has devised evils against her: we have cut her off from [being] a nation, and she shall be completely still: after you shall go a sword;
3 BOEIPA tah kai taengah daengrhae daengkhoi la ha phoe coeng dongah kumhal kah lungnah neh nang kan lungnah tih sitlohnah neh nang kan dangrhoek tangloeng coeng.
for [there is] a voice of [men] crying out of Oronaim, destruction and great ruin.
4 Israel oila nang te koep kan thoh vetih na thoo bitni. Na kamrhing te koep na oi vetih lamnah dongah na luem doela na pawk bitni.
Moab is ruined, proclaim [it] to Zogora:
5 Samaria tlang ah misur koep na phung te a phung, a phung uh vetih a poek a yak uh ni.
for Aloth is filled with weeping: one shall go up weeping by the way of Oronaim; you have heard a cry of destruction.
6 Ephraim tlang kah aka dawn rhoek loh, “Thoo uh lamtah mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA taengah Zion la cet uh sih,” tila a hoe uh khohnin khaw om bitni.
Flee you, and save your lives, and you shall be as a wild ass in the desert.
7 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Jakob ham tamhoe uh lamtah kohoenah neh hlampan uh. Namtom boeilu te yaak sak lamtah a thangthen neh, “BOEIPA aw na pilnam Israel kah a meet te khang laeh,” ti saeh.
Since you have trusted in your strong-hold, therefore you shall be taken: and Chamos shall go forth into captivity, and his priests, and his princes together.
8 Amih te tlangpuei khohmuen lamloh kang khuen coeng he. Te dongah amih te diklai a hlaep lamloh ka coi ni. Amih taengkah mikdael neh khokhaem khaw, aka vawn neh cacun khaw hlangping la muep ha mael uh rhenten ni.
And destruction shall come upon every city, it shall by no means escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain country shall be completely destroyed, as the Lord has said.
9 Rhahnah neh ha pawk uh cakhaw amih huithuinah neh ka khuen ni. Amih te soklong tui ah ka pongpa puei vetih, a thuem longpuei ah paloe uh mahpawh. Israel taengah ana pa la ka om tih Ephraim te ka caming ni.
Set marks upon Moab, for she shall be touched with a plague-spot, and all her cities shall become desolate; whence [shall there be] an inhabitant for her?
10 Namtom rhoek BOEIPA ol he hnatun uh. Khohla bangsang kah sanglak ah khaw puen uh lamtah Israel khuikah a thaekyak te thui pah. Anih te a coi vetih a tuping aka dawn bangla anih te a ngaithuen ni.
Cursed is the man that does the works of the Lord carelessly, keeping back his sword from blood.
11 BOEIPA loh Jakob te a lat tih anih lakah tlungluen kut lamloh a tlan coeng.
Moab has been at ease from a child, and trusted in his glory; he has not poured out [his liquor] from vessel to vessel, and has not gone into banishment, therefore his taste remained in him, and his smell departed not.
12 Ha pawk uh vaengah Zion hmuensang ah tamhoe uh ni. BOEIPA kah thennah dongah, cangpai dongah, misur thai dongah, situi dongah, boiva neh saelhung ca dongah hlampan uh ni. A hingnah te khosul dum bangla om vetih a kha koep ham koei mahpawh.
Therefore, behold, his days come, says the Lord, when I shall send upon him bad leaders, and they shall lead him astray, and they shall utterly break in pieces his possessions, and shall cut his horns asunder.
13 Te vaengah oila khaw tongpang neh patong taengah lamnah neh thikat la a kohoe ni. Amih kah nguekcoinah te omngaihnah la ka hoi pah vetih amih te ka hloep ni. Amih kah kothaenah yueng la amih ko ka hoe sak ni.
And Moab shall be ashamed of Chamos, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Baethel their hope, having trusted in them.
14 Khosoih rhoek kah hinglu te maehhloi neh ka sulpuem sak vetih ka pilnam khaw ka thennah neh cung uh ni.
How will you say, We are strong, and men strong for war?
15 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Ramah ah rhathinah ol a yaak. Rakhel tah a ca rhoek ham kosidung kah rhahnah neh rhap coeng. A ca rhoek a om pawt dongah kohlawt ham khaw a aal coeng.
Moab is ruined, [even] his city, and his choice young men have gone down to slaughter.
16 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Na ol te rhahnah lamloh, na mik te khaw mikphi lamloh tuem laeh. BOEIPA kah olphong bangla na khoboe ham thapang om vetih thunkha khohmuen lamloh ha mael uh bitni.
The day of Moab is near at hand, and his iniquity moves swiftly [to vengeance].
17 BOEIPA kah olphong bangla na hmailong ham ngaiuepnah om tangloeng coeng tih ca rhoek khaw a khorhi la mael uh bitni.
Shake [the head] at him, all you that are round about him; all [of you] utter his name; say you, How is the glorious staff broken to pieces, the rod of magnificence!
18 Ephraim kah a rhaehba te a yaak rhoela ka yaak coeng. Kai nan thuituen vaengah a phaep noek pawh vaitoca bangla n'thuituen coeng. Namah tah BOEIPA ka Pathen la na om dongah kai m'mael sak lamtah ka mael pawn eh.
Come down from [your] glory, and sit down in a damp place: Daebon shall be broken, because Moab is destroyed: there has gone up against you one to ravage your strong-hold.
19 Ka mael hnukah ni damti coeng. Ka hlit dongkah kutpaeng khaw ka ming phoeiah ni ka yah pueng. Ka camoe lamkah kokhahnah te ka phueih tih ka hmaithae coeng.
Stand by the way, and look, you that dwell in Arer; and ask him that is fleeing, and him that escapes, and say, What has happened?
20 Ephraim he kamah taengkah oingaih capa maco? Anih te ka thui dingdoeng vaengah khaw hlahmaenah camoe ni. Te dongah anih te ka poek rhoe ka poek pueng. Ka ko anih hamla umya tih anih te haidam rhoela ka haidam coeng.
Moab is put to shame, because he is broken: howl and cry; proclaim in Arnon, that Moab has perished.
21 Namah ham pangkae te ling lamtah miknawt khaw namah ham khueh laeh. Longpuei lamhlawn te na lungbuei ah dueh lamtah pongpa rhoe pongpa laeh. Israel oila ha mael lamtah na khopuei ah he ha mael laeh.
And judgment is coming against the land of Misor, upon Chelon, and Rephas, and Mophas,
22 Hnukmael canu te me hil nim na dongpam ve? BOEIPA loh diklai dongah a thai la a suen vetih huta tongpa loh a vael bitni.
and upon Daebon, and upon Nabau, and upon the house of Daethlathaim,
23 Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. He ol he Judah kho khui neh a khopuei rhoek khuiah koep a thui uh vaengah amih khuikah thongtla te kai taengla ha mael ni. Duengnah tlang cim tolkhoeng dongkah BOEIPA loh nang n'uem nawn saeh.
and upon Cariathaim, and upon the house of Gaemol, and upon the house of Maon,
24 Te vaengah Judah amah neh a khopuei boeih ah tun kho a sak uh lopho khaw tuping neh ha hlah uh ni.
and upon Carioth, and upon Bosor, and upon all the cities of Moab, far and near.
25 Buhmueh rhathih kah a hinglu te ka sulpuem sak vetih aka kha kah hinglu te boeih ka cung sak ni.
The horn of Moab is broken, and his arm is crushed.
26 Ka haenghang vaengah he khaw ka sawt tih ka ih khaw kai ham tui mai.
Make you him drunk; for he has magnified himself against the Lord: and Moab shall clap with his hand, and shall be also himself a laughing stock.
27 BOEIPA kah olphong khohnin ha pawk coeng ke. Israel imkhui neh Judah imkhui khaw, hlang kah tiingan neh rhamsa kah tiingan khaw ka phul pueng ni.
For surely Israel was to you a laughing stock, and was found among your thefts, because you did fight against him.
28 Phuk ham neh phil ham khaw, koengloeng ham neh milh sak ham khaw, thaehuet ham khaw amih ka hak thil bangla thoeng van. Te dongah thoh ham neh phung ham khaw amih te ka hak thil ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
The inhabitants of Moab have left the cities, and lived in rocks; they have become as doves nestling in rocks, at the mouth of a cave.
29 Te khohnin ah tah, “A napa rhoek loh thaihkang a caak uh tih a ca rhoek a no yaa,” ti uh voel mahpawh.
And I have heard of the pride of Moab, he has greatly heightened his pride and his haughtiness, and his heart has been lifted up.
30 Tedae hlang he amah kah thaesainah dongah ni a duek eh. Thaihkang aka ca hlang boeih tah a no yaa ni.
But I know his works: is it not enough for him? has he not done thus?
31 BOEIPA kah olphong khohnin tah ha pawk coeng ke. Israel imkhui taeng neh Judah imkhui taengah paipi thai ka saii ni.
Therefore howl you for Moab on all sides; cry out against the shorn men [in] a gloomy place. I will weep for you,
32 Egypt kho lamloh amih khuen ham a kut ah ka talong khohnin vaengkah a napa rhoek neh ka saii paipi bang te moenih. Amih loh ka paipi he phae cakhaw kai amih te ka yuunah ngawn ta. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
O vine of Aserema, as with the weeping of Jazer: your branches are gone over the sea, they reached the cities of Jazer: destruction has come upon your fruits, [and] upon your grape gatherers.
33 Tedae paipi he Israel imkhui neh ka saii phoeikah khohnin ah tah ka olkhueng he amih kotak khuiah ka paek vetih a lungbuei ah ka daek pah ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Amih taengah Pathen la ka om vetih amih khaw kamah taengah pilnam la om uh ni.
Joy and gladness have been utterly swept off the land of Moab: and [though] there was wine in your presses, in the morning they trod it not, neither in the evening did they raise the cry of joy.
34 Hlang loh a hui te koep tukkil uh pawt vetih hlang loh a manuca te, “BOEIPA te ming laeh,” ti nah mahpawh. Amih te tanoe lamloh kangham duela kai boeih m'ming uh ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Amih kah thaesainah te khodawk ka ngai vetih a tholhnah te ka poek voel mahpawh.
From the cry of Esebon even to Aetam their cities uttered their voice, from Zogor to Oronaim, and their tidings [as] a heifer of three years old, for the water also of Nebrin shall be dried up.
35 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Khothaih kah vangnah ham khomik, khoyin kah vangnah ham hla neh aisi kah khosing khaw a khueh. Tuitunli te a kueng tih a tuiphu khaw kawk coeng. A ming tah caempuei BOEIPA ni.
And I will destroy Moab, says the Lord, as he comes up to the altar, and burns incense to his gods.
36 He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Oltlueh he ka mikhmuh lamloh khum koinih hnin takuem ka mikhmuh ah namtu la aka om Israel tiingan khaw kangkuen uh ni.
Therefore the heart of Moab shall sound as pipes, my heart shall sound as a pipe for the shorn men; forasmuch as what [every] man has gained has perished from him.
37 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Vaan ke a so la a nueh uh thai tih diklai a yung hmui duela a khe uh thai mak atah Israel kah tiingan boeih te a saii cungkuem dongah ka hnawt van bitni.
They shall all have their heads shaved in every place, and every beard shall be shaved; and all hands shall beat [the breasts], and on all loins shall be sackcloth.
38 BOEIPA kah olphong khohnin ha pawk coeng ke. Te vaengah bangkil vongka kah Hananel rhaltoengim lamloh BOEIPA ham khopuei a thoh ni.
And on all the housetops of Moab, and in his streets [shall be mourning]: for I have broken [him], says the Lord, as a vessel, which is useless.
39 Gareb som te a hmai la rhilam rhui sen a toe thil vetih Goah duela a vael ni.
How has he changed! how has Moab turned [his] back! Moab is put to shame, and become a laughing stock, and an object of anger to all that are round about him.
40 Rhok neh maehhloi aka om tuikol boeih, lohmali neh hmangrhong boeih khaw, Kidron soklong neh khothoeng kah marhang vongka bangkil duela BOEIPA ham hmuencim la om ni. Kumhal duela koep kuel pawt vetih koengloeng voel mahpawh.
For thus said the Lord;
Carioth is taken, and the strongholds have been taken together.
And Moab shall perish from being a multitude, because he has magnified himself against the Lord.
A snare, and fear, and the pit, are upon you, O inhabitant of Moab.
He that flees from the terror shall fall into the pit, and he that comes up out of the pit shall even be taken in the snare: for I will bring these things upon Moab in the year of their visitation.
