< Jeremiah 33 >
1 BOEIPA ol tah Jeremiah taengah a pabae la pawk. Te vaengah amah te thongim vongup ah a khoh pueng.
Moreover Yahweh’s word came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still locked up in the court of the guard, saying,
2 BOEIPA loh he a thui. BOEIPA loh hno a saii tih cikngae sak ham a hlinsai. A ming he BOEIPA ni.
“Yahweh who does it, Yahweh who forms it to establish it—Yahweh is his name, says:
3 Kai he n'khue lamtah nang kan doo bitni. Nang taengah a len neh a cakrhuet la na ming pawt te khaw ka puen bitni.
‘Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and difficult things, which you don’t know.’
4 Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh tanglung neh cunghang dongah a voeih he khopuei kah im kawng neh Judah manghai im kawng he khaw a thui.
For Yahweh, the God of Israel, says concerning the houses of this city and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down to make a defense against the mounds and against the sword:
5 Khalden te vathoh thil ham neh hlang rhok te amih hah sak ham ha pawk coeng. Ka thintoek neh ka kosi ah ka ngawn ni. Amih kah boethae cungkuem ah he khopuei lamloh ka maelhmai ka thuh ni.
‘While men come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have killed in my anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hidden my face from this city,
6 A taengah sadingnah neh hoeihnah ka khuen coeng he. Te dongah amih te ka hoeih sak vetih ngaimongnah neh oltak khobuhnah te amih taengah ka poelyoe sak ni.
behold, I will bring it health and healing, and I will cure them; and I will reveal to them abundance of peace and truth.
7 Judah thongtla rhoek neh Israel thongtla rhoek te ka mael puei vetih amih te lamhma kah bangla ka thoh ni.
I will restore the fortunes of Judah and Israel, and will build them as at the first.
8 Amih kathaesainah cungkuem lamloh amih te ka caihcil ni. Kai soah tholh uh cakhaw amih kathaesainah boeih te boeih khodawk ka ngai ni. Kai taengah tholh uh tih kai taengah boekoek uh cakhaw.
I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against me. I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned against me and by which they have transgressed against me.
9 Kamah taengah omngaihnah ming, koehnah la, diklai namtom boeih taengah boeimang la om ni. Amih ham hnothen ka saii boeih te a yaak uh coeng. Te dongah anih ham ka saii hnothen cungkuem neh ngaimongnah cungkuem dongah birhih uh vetih tlai uh ni.
This city will be to me for a name of joy, for praise, and for glory, before all the nations of the earth, which will hear all the good that I do to them, and will fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I provide to it.’”
10 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui, he hmuen ah koep a yaak bitni. Nangmih te, “A kaksap la, Judah khopuei ah hlang om pawt tih rhamsa om pawh, Jerusalem vongvoel ah pong coeng, hlang om pawh, khosa om pawh, rhamsa khaw om pawh,” a ti lah ko.
Yahweh says: “Yet again there will be heard in this place, about which you say, ‘It is waste, without man and without animal, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without animal,’
11 '''Omngaihnah ol neh kohoenah ol, yulokung ol neh vasakung ol, BOEIPA im kah uemonah aka pawk puei rhoek, a sitlohnah kumhal ham neh BOEIPA a then dongah caempuei BOEIPA te uem uh,’ a ti ol neh lum bitni. Khohmuen thongtla te hnukbuet kah bangla ka mael puei,” tila BOEIPA loh a thui.
the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say, ‘Give thanks to Yahweh of Armies, for Yahweh is good, for his loving kindness endures forever;’ who bring thanksgiving into Yahweh’s house. For I will cause the captivity of the land to be reversed as at the first,” says Yahweh.
12 Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Hlang neh rhamsa neh om pawt cakhaw a khopuei boeih kah boiva aka dawn kah tolkhoeng ah aka kol boiva neh a kaksap la he hmuen ah koep om bitni.
Yahweh of Armies says: “Yet again there will be in this place, which is waste, without man and without animal, and in all its cities, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
13 “Tlang kah khopuei ah, kolrhawk khopuei ah khaw, tuithim khopuei ah, Benjamin khohmuen ah, Jerusalem kaepvai ah, Judah khopuei rhoek ah khaw, boiva he aka tae kah kut dongah koep pongpa ni,” tila BOEIPA loh a thui.
In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, in the cities of the South, in the land of Benjamin, in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks will again pass under the hands of him who counts them,” says Yahweh.
14 BOEIPA kah olphong khohnin ha pawk coeng he. Israel imkhui neh Judah imkhui taengah ol then ka thui te ka thoeng sak ni.
“Behold, the days come,” says Yahweh, “that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
15 Te khohnin neh a tue vaengah David kah duengnah a dawn te ka duei sak vetih khohmuen ah tiktamnah neh duengnah a saii ni.
“In those days and at that time, I will cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up to David. He will execute justice and righteousness in the land.
16 Te khohnin ah Judah te daem vetih Jerusalem khaw ngaikhuek la om ni. Te te mamih kah duengnah BOEIPA la a khue ni.
In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell safely. This is the name by which she will be called: Yahweh our righteousness.”
17 Te dongah BOEIPA loh,” Israel im kah ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol David kah hlang pat mahpawh,” a ti.
For Yahweh says: “David will never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel.
18 Ka mikhmuh kah Levi khosoih rhoek ham khaw hlang he pat mahpawh. Hmueihhlutnah aka khuen neh khocang aka phum khaw hnin takuem ah hmueih a khueh uh ni.
The Levitical priests won’t lack a man before me to offer burnt offerings, to burn meal offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.”
19 Te phoeiah BOEIPA ol he Jeremiah taengla koep ha pawk tih,
Yahweh’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
20 “BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Khothaih kah ka paipi neh khoyin kah ka paipi he na phae koinih amah tue vaengkah khoyin neh khothaih ah thoeng tangloeng mahpawt nim?
“Yahweh says: ‘If you can break my covenant of the day and my covenant of the night, so that there will not be day and night in their time,
21 Ka sal David taengkah ka paipi he khaw a taengah aka om tih a ngolkhoel dongah aka manghai a ca rhoek lamloh, kai aka khut Levi khosoih rhoek taeng lamloh pat mahpawh.
then my covenant could also be broken with David my servant, that he won’t have a son to reign on his throne; and with the Levitical priests, my ministers.
22 Vaan kah caempuei te tae lek pawt tih tuipuei laivin he a loeng lek moenih. Ka sal David kah tiingan neh kai aka khut Levi rhoek he khaw ka ping sak van ni,” a ti.
As the army of the sky can’t be counted, and the sand of the sea can’t be measured, so I will multiply the offspring of David my servant and the Levites who minister to me.’”
23 BOEIPA ol he Jeremiah taengla koep ha pawk tih,
Yahweh’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
24 “He pilnam he balae ti khaw hmu uh pawt nim? A thui vaengah tah, 'BOEIPA loh amih huiko panit te a coelh dae koep a hnawt,’ a ti uh. Amih mikhmuh kah namtom aka om lamloh ka pilnam te a tlaitlaek uh,” a ti.
“Don’t consider what this people has spoken, saying, ‘Has Yahweh cast off the two families which he chose?’ Thus they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.”
25 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Khoyin neh khothaih kah ka paipi pawt koinih vaan neh diklai kah khosing khaw ka khueh mahpawh.
Yahweh says: “If my covenant of day and night fails, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth,
26 Abraham, Isaak neh Jakob kah tiingan aka taemrhai ham Jakob kah tiingan neh ka sal David kah a tiingan lamloh tuek te khaw ka paa ni. Amih khuikah thongtla te ka mael rhoe ka mael puei vetih amih te ka haidam pueng ni.
then I will also cast away the offspring of Jacob, and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his offspring to be rulers over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to be reversed and will have mercy on them.”
