< Jeremiah 37 >
1 Jehoiakim capa Koniah yueng la Josiah capa manghai Zedekiah te manghai. Anih te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh Judah khohmuen ah a manghai sak.
THE WORD THAT CAME TO JEREMIAS FROM THE LORD, SAYING,
2 Tedae tonghma Jeremiah kut lamloh a thui BOEIPA ol te amah neh a sal rhoek neh khohmuen pilnam loh a hnatun moenih.
Thus speaks the Lord God of Israel, saying, Write all the words which I have spoken to you in a book.
3 Manghai Zedekiah loh Shelemiah capa Jehukal neh khosoih Maaseiah capa Zephaniah te tonghma Jeremiah taengla a tueih tih, “Mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA taengah kaimih ham thangthui laeh,” a ti nah.
For, behold, the days come, says the Lord, when I will bring back the captivity of my people Israel and Juda, said the Lord: and I will bring them back to the land which I gave to their fathers, and they shall be lords of it.
4 Te vaengah anih te im kah thongim, thongim ah a khueh uh pawt dongah Jeremiah te pilnam lakli ah mop tih pongpa pueng.
AND THESE ARE THE WORDS WHICH THE LORD SPOKE CONCERNING ISRAEL AND JUDA;
5 Te vaengah Pharaoh kah tatthai rhoek he Egypt lamloh ha pawk uh. Tedae a olthang te Jerusalem aka dum Khalden rhoek loh a yaak vaengah Khalden rhoek te Jerusalem lamloh nong uh.
Thus said the Lord: You shall hear a sound of fear, [there is] fear, and there is not peace.
6 Te vaengah BOEIPA ol te tonghma Jeremiah taengla ha pawk tih,
Enquire, and see if a male has born a child? and [ask] concerning the fear, wherein they shall hold their loins, and [look for] safety: for I have seen every man, and his hands are on his loins; [their] faces are turned to paleness.
7 Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a. thui. Kai loepdak ham kai nan tueih coeng lah ko, Judah manghai te he thui he pah. Nangmih taengah bomnah ham Pharaoh kah tatthai ha pawk dae amah Egypt kho la mael ni ne.
For that day is great, and there is not such [another]; and it is a time of straitness to Jacob; but he shall be saved out of it.
8 Te vaengah Khalden rhoek ha pawk vetih he khopuei he a vathoh thil ni. A tuuk vetih hmai neh a hlup ni.
In that day, said the Lord, I will break the yoke off their neck, and will burst their bonds, and they shall no longer serve strangers:
9 BOEIPA loh he ni a. thui. Khalden he kaimih taeng lamloh nong nong bitni a ti neh na hinglu te rhaithi boeh. Nong mahpawh.
but they shall serve the Lord their God; and I will raise up to them David their king.
10 Khalden caem te na vathoh thil tih boeih na ngawn khoem mai cakhaw amih hlang he sueng pueng. A dap khuikah a thun hlang pataeng thoo vetih he khopuei he hmai neh a hoeh ni.
11 Pharaoh caem hmai ah Khalden caem khaw Jerusalem lamloh nong uh.
12 Te dongah Jeremiah Jerusalem lamloh nong tih pilnam lakli ah buhvae pahoi duen ham Benjamin kho la cet.
Thus says the Lord; I have brought on [you] destruction; your stroke is painful.
13 Tedae Benjamin vongka ah Hananiah koca Shelemiah capa, a ming ah rhaltoeng boei Irijah te tapkhoeh om. Te dongah tonghma Jeremiah te a tuuk tih, “Khalden taengla na cungku aya?,” a ti nah.
There is none to judge your cause: you have been painfully treated for healing, there is no help for you.
14 Jeremiah loh, “A poeyoek la, Khalden taengah ka cungku mahpawh,” a ti nah. Tedae anih taengkah te a hnatun pawt dongah Irijah loh Jeremiah te a tuuk tih mangpa rhoek taegla a thak.
All your friends have forgotten you; they shall not ask [about you] at all, for I have struck you with he stroke of an enemy, [even] severe correction: your sins have abounded above all your iniquity.
15 Mangpa rhoek te Jeremiah taengah a thintoek uh. Te dongah amah te a boh uh tih cadaek Jonathan im kah thongim imkhui ah a khueh uh. Te vaengah anih im te thongim la a saii uh.
Your sins have abounded beyond the multitude of your iniquities, [therefore] they have done these things to you. Therefore all that devour you shall be eaten, and all your enemies shall eat all their [own] flesh.
16 Te dongah Jeremiah te tangrhom im khuila pawk tih airhol khuiah khaw Jeremiah he khohnin a yet hnap om.
And they that spoil you shall become a spoil, and I will give up to be plundered all that have plundered you.
17 Te phoeiah manghai Zedekiah loh a tah tih anih te a khuen pah. Anih te manghai loh amah im ah a huep la a dawt tih, “BOEIPA taeng lamkah ol om a te?” a ti nah. Jeremiah loh a doo tih, “Babylon manghai kut dongla m'paek ni,” a ti nah.
For I will bring about your healing, I will heal you of your grievous wound, says the Lord; for you are called Dispersed: she is your prey, for no one seeks after her.
18 Jeremiah loh manghai Zedekiah taengah, “Thongim imkhui ah kai nan khueh ham akhaw nang taeng neh na sal rhoek taengah, he pilnam taengah balae ka tholh,
Thus said the Lord; Behold, I will turn the captivity of Jacob, and will have pity upon his prisoners; and the city shall be built upon her hill, and the people shall settle after their manner.
19 Namah taengah tonghma uh tih, 'Babylon manghai loh namah neh he khohmuen khaw, vathoh thil mahpawh,’ aka ti na tonghma rhoek te ta melae me?
And there shall go forth from them singers, [even] the sound of men making merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not at all be diminished.
20 Tedae ka boei manghai aw hnatun mai dae lamtah kai kah lungmacil he na mikhmuh ah thoeng laeh saeh. Kai he cadaek Jonathan imkhui la nan mael sak pawt daengah ni pahoi ka duek pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
And their sons shall go in as before, and their testimonies shall be established before me, and I will visit them that afflict them.
21 Te dongah manghai Zedekiah loh auen tih Jeremiah te thongim vongup ah a khueh. Anih te hnin at ah buh hluem te kholong buh thong taeng lamloh khopuei lamkah buh boeih a cung duela a paek. Jeremiah khaw thongim vongup ah kho a sak.
And their mighty ones shall be over them, and their prince shall proceed of themselves; and I will gather them, and they shall return to me: for who is this that has set his heart to return to me? says the Lord.
For the wrathful anger of the lord has gone forth, [even] a whirlwind of anger has gone forth: it shall come upon the ungodly.
The fierce anger of the Lord shall not return, until he shall execute [it], and until he shall establish the purpose of his heart: in the latter days you shall know these things.
