< Jeremiah 29 >

1 He cabu ol he Jerusalem lamkah tonghma Jeremiah loh vangsawn patong hlangrhuel taeng neh khosoih rhoek taeng neh, tonghma rhoek taeng neh, Nebukhanezar loh Jerusalem lamkah Babylon duela a poelyoe pilnam boeih taengah,
THUS SAITH THE LORD AGAINST THE PHILISTINES;
2 Manghai Jekoniah neh manghainu, Judah tildit mangpa rhoek neh Jerusalem rhoek, Jerusalem kah kutthai rhoek neh thidae rhoek a khuen phoeiah tah,
Behold, waters come up from the north, and shall become a sweeping torrent, and it shall sweep away the land, and its fulness; the city, and them that dwell in it: and men shall cry and all that dwell in the land shall howl,
3 Shaphan capa Elasah neh Hilkiah capa Gemariah kut dongah a pat. Amih rhoi te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar taengkah Judah manghai Zedekiah taengah Babylon la a tueih tih,
at the sound of his rushing, at [the sound of] his hoofs, and at the rattling of his chariots, at the noise of his wheels: the fathers turned not to their children because of the weakness of their hands,
4 Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. vangsawn boeih te Jerusalem lamloh Babylon la ka poelyoe coeng.
in the day that is coming to destroy all the Philistines: and I will utterly destroy Tyre and Sidon and all the rest of their allies: for the Lord will destroy the remaining [inhabitants] of the islands.
5 Im thoh uh lamtah khosa uh, dum tue uh lamtah a thaih te ca uh.
Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ascalon is cast away, and the remnant of the Enakim.
6 Yuu lo uh lamtah canu neh capa cun uh. Na capa ham khaw yuu loh pah lamtah na canu te a va taengah pae. Te daengah ni canu neh capa a sak uh vetih a ping uh pahoi neh na muei uh pawt eh.
How long will you strike, O sword of the Lord? how long will it be ere you are quiet? return into your sheath, rest, and be removed.
7 Te lam te nangmih kam poelyoe akhaw khopuei kah ngaimongnah mah toem uh. Te ham te BOEIPA taengah thangthui uh lamtah a ngaimongnah dongah nangmih ham ngaimongnah om bitni.
How shall it be quiet, whereas the Lord has given it a commission against Ascalon, and against the regions on the sea-coast, to awake against the remaining [countries]! CONCERNING IDUMEA, thus says the Lord; There is no longer wisdom in Thaeman, counsel has perished from the wise ones, their wisdom is gone,
8 Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Nangmih khui kah na tonghma rhoek neh nangmih taengkah bihma rhoek loh nangmih te n'rhaithi boel saeh. Na mang na man uh te khaw hnatung uh boeh.
their place has been deceived. Dig deep for a dwelling, you that inhabit Daedam, for he has wrought grievously: I brought trouble upon him in the time at which I visited him.
9 Amih te kan tueih pawt dae nangmih taengah tah kai ming neh a honghi lam ni a tonghma uh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
For grape gatherers are come, who shall not leave you a remnant; as thieves by night, they shall lay their hand upon [your possessions].
10 He tah BOEIPA long ni a thui. Ka ka dongkah he Babylon ham soep ni. Kum sawmrhih vaengah nangmih kang hip vetih he hmuen la nangmih te mael puei ham ka ol then he nangmih soah ka thoh ni.
For I have stripped Esau, I have uncovered their secret places; they shall have no power to hide themselves, they have perished [each] by the hand of his brother, my neighbor, and it is impossible
11 Nangmih ham ka poek, kopoek te khaw ka ming ngawn. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. Ngaimong kopoek neh nangmih taengah hmailong ngaiuepnah paek ham te yoethaenah ham moenih.
for your fatherless one to be left to live, but I shall live, and the widows trust in me.
12 Te vaengah kai he nan khue uh vetih na pongpa uh ni. Kai taengah na thangthui uh vaengah nangmih taengkah ka hnatun ni.
For thus says the Lord; They who were not appointed to drink the cup have drunk [it]; and you shall by no means be cleared:
13 Kai nan tlap uh vaengah nan hmuh uh bitni. Te vaengah na thinko boeih neh kai nan toem uh mako ne.
for by myself I have sworn, says the Lord, that you shall be in the midst of her an impassable [land], and a reproach, and a curse; and all her cities shall be desert for ever.
14 Nangmih te kan hmuh bitni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. Nangmih khuikah thongtla, thongtla te ka mael sak vetih namtom boeih lamkah neh nangmih kang heh nah hmuen boeih lamloh nangmih te kan coi. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Nangmih kam poelyoe hmuen lamloh nangmih te kam mael puei ni.
I have heard a report from the Lord, and he has sent messengers to the nations, [saying, ]Assemble yourselves, and come against her; rise you up to war.
15 'BOEIPA loh mamih ham Babylon ah tonghma a phoe,’ na ti uh.
I have made you small among the nations, utterly contemptible among men.
16 Tedae BOEIPA loh David kah ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol manghai kawng neh he khopuei kah khosa pilnam boeih kah a kawng, nangmih neh vangsawn la aka cet pawh na manuca kawng ni a thui tangkhuet.
Your insolence has risen up against you, the fierceness of your heart has burst the holes of the rocks, it has seized upon the strength of a lofty hill; for as an eagle he set his nest on high: thence will I bring you down.
17 Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Kai loh amih taengah cunghang, khokha neh duektahaw khaw ka tueih coeng ke. Amih te thaibu thaihuk bangla ka khueh vetih a thaenah te ca uh thai mahpawh.
And Idumea shall be a desert: every one that passes by shall hiss at it.
18 Amih hnukah cunghang neh, khokha neh, duektahaw neh ka hloem vetih tonganah neh ngaihuetnah la, diklai ram boeih taengah thaephoeinah la, imsuep la, thuithetnah la, amih ka heh nah namtom boeih taengah kokhahnah la amih te ka khueh ni.
As Sodom was overthrown and Gomorrha and they that sojourned in her, says the Lord Almighty, no man shall dwell there, nor shall any son of man inhabit there.
19 Ka ol he a hnatun uh moenih te. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Amih taengah ka sal tonghma rhoek te kan tueih. A thoh neh kan tueih akhaw na hnatun uh moenih. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
Behold, he shall come up as a lion out of the midst of Jordan to the place of Aetham: for I will speedily drive them from it, and do you set the young men against her: for who is like me? and who will withstand me? and who [is] this shepherd, who shall confront me?
20 Te dongah Jerusalem lamloh Babylon la ka tueih nangmih vangsawn boeih loh BOEIPA ol he hnatun uh.
Therefore hear you the counsel of the Lord, which he has framed against Idumea; and his device, which he has devised against the inhabitants of Thaeman: surely the least of the sheep shall be swept off; surely their dwelling shall be made desolate for them.
21 Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh Kolaiah capa Ahab neh Maaseiah capa Zedekiah kawng, kai ming neh nangmih taengah a honghi la aka tonghma rhoek he a thui. Amih te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar kut dongah ka tloeng coeng tih nangmih mikhmuh ah amih te a ngawn ni.
For at the sound of their fall the earth was scared, and the cry of the sea was not heard.
22 Amih kongah Babylon kah Judah hlangsol boeih loh rhunkhuennah la lo uh saeh. “Babylon manghai loh amih rhoi Zedekiah neh Ahab te hmai neh a rhoh bangla BOEIPA loh nang n'khueh,” ti saeh.
Behold, he shall look [upon her] as an eagle, and spread forth [his] wings over her strongholds; and the heart of the mighty men of Idumea shall be in that day as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
23 Israel taengah boethaehalang a saii uh tih a hui kah yuu nen khaw samphaih uh. Amih ka uen pawt mai ah kai ming neh a honghi ol a thui uh. Kai laipai long he ka ming khaw ka ming ta. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
24 Nehelam Shemaiah te khaw thui pah.
25 He ni Israel Pathen, caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui. Namah loh na ming neh Jerusalem kah pilnam boeih taengah, Maaseiah capa khosoih Zephaniah taeng neh khosoih boeih taengah ca pat lamtah thui pah,” ti nah.
26 BOEIPA loh khosoih Jehoiada yueng BOEIPA im kah hlangtawt la om ham khosoih la nang n'khueh coeng. Pavai neh tonghma hlang boeih te hloong khui neh thi rhawnmoep dongla khueh nawn.
27 Te dongah balae tih nangmih taengah aka tonghma Anatoth Jeremiah te na tluung laeh pawh?
28 He dongah nim Babylon kah mamih ham ol han tah. Im te puet thoh uh lamtah khosa uh, dum tue uh lamtah a thaih te ca uh a ti rhailai,'ti nah,” a ti.
29 Tedae tekah cabu te khosoih Zephaniah loh tonghma Jeremiah kah a hna ah a tae pah.
30 Te vaengah BOEIPA ol te Jeremiah taengla ha pawk.
31 vangsawn boeih taengah thui hamla tueih laeh. Nehelam Shemaiah kawng ni BOEIPA loh a thui coeng he. Shemaiah te nangmih taengah tonghma ngawn cakhaw kai loh anih kan tueih pawt dongah nangmih te a honghi dongah ni m'pangtung sak.
32 Te dongah BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Nehelam Shemaiah neh a tiingan te ka cawh coeng. Anih te he pilnam lakli ah hlang hing la om pawt vetih ka pilnam taengah a then ka saii te khaw hmu mahpawh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Anih loh BOEIPA taengah koeknah ni a thui.
