Jeremiah 43

1 A taengah a tueih pah a BOEIPA Pathen kah ol cungkuem te pilnam pum taengah a thui. Te te Jeremiah loh a khah vaengah a BOEIPA Pathen loh amih ham a paek ol te cung.

And it came about that when Jeremiah had come to the end of giving all the people the words of the Lord their God, which the Lord their God had sent him to say to them, even all these words,

2 Te vaengah Hoshaiah capa Azariah neh Kareah capa Johanan neh thinlen hlang boeih loh Jeremiah te, “A honghi ni na thui, Egypt la caeh pawt ham neh bakuep pahoi pawt ham aka thui la mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA loh nang n'tueih moenih.

Then Azariah, the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the men of pride, said to Jeremiah, You have said what is false: the Lord our God has not sent you to say, You are not to go into the land of Egypt and make your living-place there:

3 Tedae kaimih he Khalden kut ah paek ham, kaimih duek sak ham neh kaimih he Babylon ah poelyoe ham ni kaimih voelah Neriah capa Barukh loh nang te m'vueh,” a ti na uh.

But Baruch, the son of Neriah, is moving you against us, to give us up into the hands of the Chaldaeans so that they may put us to death, and take us away prisoners into Babylon.

4 Judah khohmuen kah khosak ham dongah Kareah capa Johanan neh caem mangpa boeih neh pilnam pum loh BOEIPA ol te hnatun uh pawh.

So Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the people, did not give ear to the order of the Lord that they were to go on living in the land of Judah.

5 Kareah capa Johanan neh caem mangpa boeih loh, Judah khohmuen ah bakuep sak ham a heh nah namtom boeih lamloh aka mael Judah kah a meet te boeih a loh.

But Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces took all the rest of Judah who had come back into the land of Judah from all the nations where they had been forced to go;

6 Tongpa, huta neh camoe, manghai canu rhoek neh Shaphan koca Ahikam capa Gedaliah neh imtawt boeiping Nebuzaradan loh a paih hinglu boeih khaw, tonghma Jeremiah neh Neriah capa Barukh te a khuen.

The men and the women and the children and the king's daughters, and every person whom Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, had put under the care of Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet and Baruch, the son of Neriah;

7 Te dongah Egypt khohmuen te a pha uh dae BOEIPA ol te a hnatun uh pawt dongah Tahpanhes la pawk uh.

And they came into the land of Egypt; for they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord: and they came to Tahpanhes.

8 Tahpanhes ah Jeremiah taengla BOEIPA ol koep ha pawk tih,

Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,

9 “Na kut dongah lungto len lo lamtah Judah hlang rhoek kah mikhmuh ah Tahpanhes kah Pharaoh im thohka, taptlang laiting ah up.

Take in your hand some great stones, and put them in a safe place in the paste in the brickwork which is at the way into Pharaoh's house in Tahpanhes, before the eyes of the men of Judah;

10 Te phoeiah amih te thui pah. Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Ka sal Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar te ka tueih coeng dae ka loh pueng ni. He lungto ka up he anih kah ngolkhoel ka hol thil vetih a sokah amah po, amah po te a bueng thil ni.

And say to them, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: See, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant, and he will put the seat of his kingdom on these stones which have been put in a safe place here by you; and his tent will be stretched over them.

11 Egypt khohmuen la a pawk, a pawk vaengah dueknah ham tueng te dueknah neh, tamna ham tueng te tamna la, cunghang dongkah ham tueng te cunghang neh a ngawn ni.

And he will come and overcome the land of Egypt; those who are for death will be put to death, those who are to be prisoners will be made prisoners, and those who are for the sword will be given to the sword.

12 Egypt pathen im te hmai ka hlup phoeiah a hoeh vetih amih te a sol ni. Boiva aka dawn loh a himbai neh a kulup bangla Egypt khohmuen neh kulup uh vetih te lamloh ngaimong la khoe uh ni.

And he will put a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt; and they will be burned by him: and he will make Egypt clean as a keeper of sheep makes clean his clothing; and he will go out from there in peace.

13 Egypt kho kah Bethshemesh kaam te a phaek pah vetih Egypt pathen im te hmai neh a hoeh ni,” a ti nah.

And the stone pillars of Beth-shemesh in the land of Egypt will be broken by him, and the houses of the gods of Egypt burned with fire.
