Jeremiah 19
1 Pakaiyin kajah’a hitin aseiye, “Chenlang, leibel khat gachotan, chule mipi lah’a lamkai phabep leh thempu phabep kouvin, amaho chutoh kilhon inlang,
Thus said the LORD, “Go, and buy a potter’s earthen container, and take some of the elders of the people and of the elders of the priests;
2 bel dengho kelkot a chun gapotdoh in, Ben-hinnom phai geiyin cheuvin, chule amaho jah’a chun kathusei hohi seipeh in.
and go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is by the entry of the gate Harsith, and proclaim there the words that I will tell you.
3 “Pakai thusei hohi phaten ngaiyuvin, Vo Judah lengte leh Jerusalem mite. Pakai, Israel Pathen chun aseiye; Hiche mun’a hi tijat umtah hamsetna kalhunsah ding, ajapha chan tija behseh diu ahi.
Say, ‘Hear the LORD’s word, kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel says, “Behold, I will bring evil on this place, which whoever hears, his ears will tingle.
4 Ajeh iham itile, Israel in keima eidalhan, hiche mun hi kidah um leh chonset dimset mun ahisahtauve. Amahon tumasanga anahet khah louvu, apu apateuvin jong ahetlou, chule Judah lengten jong ahetlouvu, gamdang ho pathen lim semthu ho, hounan gim namtwi ahal uvin, hilaimun hi mona bei miho thisan kisonamun ahitai.
Because they have forsaken me, and have defiled this place, and have burned incense in it to other gods that they didn’t know—they, their fathers, and the kings of Judah—and have filled this place with the blood of innocents,
5 Amahon Baal maicham asemdoh un, achapateu meiya govam’a kilhaina neidin, Baal maicham asem uve. Keiman vang hitobang bolna din thupeh kanei khapon chule kalunga jong kagel khapoi.
and have built the high places of Baal to burn their children in the fire for burnt offerings to Baal, which I didn’t command, nor speak, which didn’t even enter into my mind.
6 Hijeh chun ngaiphauvin, hiche mun hi Topheth ahiloule Ben-hinnom phai kitita louva, kithana phai tia kihet nading nikho chu ahunglhung e, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Therefore, behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that this place will no more be called ‘Topheth’, nor ‘The Valley of the son of Hinnom’, but ‘The valley of Slaughter’.
7 Ajeh chu keiman hilaimun’a hi, Judah leh Jerusalem mite thilgon ho abon’a kasuh cheh ding, amaho chu amelmateu chemjam’a kalousah soh keidiu ahi. Chule athilong u chu vachate leh gamsate vahna-a kanei ding ahi.
“‘“I will make the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem void in this place. I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those who seek their life. I will give their dead bodies to be food for the birds of the sky and for the animals of the earth.
8 keiman Jerusalem khopi hi kasuhchim’a, khogem’a kaumsah ding, koi hileh ajotpa jousen kidang asahdiu, tijalih leudiu ahi.
I will make this city an astonishment and a hissing. Everyone who passes by it will be astonished and hiss because of all its plagues.
9 Namelmateu vin Jerusalem alonkhum ding, neh leh chah abeisoh kahsea aumkim diu, genthei nasatah athohdiu ahi. Achaina le, mihon nehding aholmo uva, amaho le amaho kineto diu chule achateu geiya akithauva anehdiu ahi, ati.
I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters. They will each eat the flesh of his friend in the siege and in the distress with which their enemies, and those who seek their life, will distress them.”’
10 Chutah le nangman nalhonpiho mitmu changtah’a chu, nabel choh chu, navoh kehding,
“Then you shall break the container in the sight of the men who go with you,
11 Chule ajah uva nasei ding, thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin aseiye: Keiman hiche leibel kivoh keh banga hi, Judah le Jerusalem mi, t kavohjal ding, avel’a sempha kit theilou hel hiding ahi. Amahon mithi ho chu Topheth mungeiya ahinven diu, ajeh chu mundang a kivuina chu kabol ding ahi, ati.
and shall tell them, ‘The LORD of Hosts says: “Even so I will break this people and this city as one breaks a potter’s vessel, that can’t be made whole again. They will bury in Topheth until there is no place to bury.
This is what I will do to this place,” says the LORD, “and to its inhabitants, even making this city as Topheth.
13 Jerusalem a inho leh Judah lengte inpiho jouse, chule inchungvum’a ahsie nahounauva gim namtwi nahalnau, chule dontheiya kilhaina thilto kisunkhum doilim pathen ho nahounau, abon’a chu Topheth mun banga bohsoh hel ahitauve,’’ ati.
The houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah, which are defiled, will be as the place of Topheth, even all the houses on whose roofs they have burned incense to all the army of the sky and have poured out drink offerings to other gods.”’”
14 Hichun Jeremiah chu, Pakaiyin athu phongjal dinga asolna Topheth mun chu adalhan akile kittai. Chuin ama houin ah alut in, mipite jah’a thu aseitai.
Then Jeremiah came from Topheth, where the LORD had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the court of the LORD’s house, and said to all the people:
15 Ngaiyun, thaneipen Pakai, Israel Pathen chun hitin aseye: Keiman hiche khopi leh avel a khoneo ho jouse douna kana phondohsa banga, hamsetna nasatah achunguva kalhunsah ding ahi. Ajeh chu, nanghon nangong navaiput leuvin, kathusei donlouvin nakoi uve, ati.
“The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel says, ‘Behold, I will bring on this city and on all its towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it, because they have made their neck stiff, that they may not hear my words.’”
