Jeremiah 21
1 Malkijah chapa Pachhur leh Maaseih chapa thempupa Zephaniah chu, Zedekiah lengpan, Jeremiah themgaopa toh kimuto dinga ahinsol pet chun, Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga thu ahinseitai.
The word which came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, when King Zedekiah sent to him Pashur, the son of Melchiah, and Zephaniah, the son of Maaseiah, the priest, saying:
2 Amahon, Jeremiah jah’a, “Nangin keiho din, Pakai kom’a neitaopeh uvin; Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar in kachung uva gal eibol khumtauve. Pakaiyin alungset longlou chun keiho eilungset uhin, chule bolmo kidang nasatah bol intin, Aman Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar chu bailam tah’a akinungtol sah ding ahi,’’ atiuve.
Inquire, I pray thee, of Jehovah for us; for Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, maketh war against us; whether Jehovah will deal with us according to all his wondrous works, that he may go up from us.
3 Hichun Jeremiah in adonbut in, “Zedekiah lengpa kom’a kilekit’uvin lang, gaseipeh un.’’
And Jeremiah said to them, Thus shall ye say to Zedekiah:
4 Pakai, Israel Pathen chun, hitin aseiye, Vetan, Babylon lengpa leh cheldia mite douna dinga, nakhut uva nachoiyu galmanchah ho abon’a pannabei leh thaneilou kasosah ding: Keiman namelmateu chu khopi lailung tah’a kahinpuilut diu ahi.
Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war which are in your hands, with which ye fight against the king of Babylon and the Chaldaeans, which besiege you without the walls, and I will assemble them in the midst of this city.
5 Chule keima mong mong in lunghang tahle thahattah’a, kabantha kalhan ding, nangho douna gal kabolkhum diu nahiuve. Ajeh chu nanghon keima nasatah a neiphin doh u ahitai.
And I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand, and with a strong arm, with anger and fury and great wrath.
6 Keiman hiche khopi hi, gamna hise kalha khum ding, mihem hihen chule gancha hijongle kasuhgam hel ding ahi.
And I will smite the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast; by a great pestilence shall they die.
7 Chujou tengle, keiman Zedekiah lengpa, alhachaho leh asohte, chule khopi sunga chengho gamna hise leh chemjam’a chule kel’a hingdoh chengse chu Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar khut leh melmate khut’a kapehdoh ding ahiuve. Aman dip damna leh khotona beihel’a amaho se chu chemjam’a asatgam diu ahi,’’ ati.
And after this, saith Jehovah, I will deliver Zedekiah, the king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, and those in the city who shall be left alive by the pestilence, the sword, and the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those that seek their life; and he shall smite them with the edge of the sword. He shall not spare them, nor have pity, nor show mercy.
8 Mipite henga naseiding, Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Keiman nakilhen diuvin namasang uva, thilni – Hinna lampi leh thina lampi kakoipeh gel e.
And to this people thou shalt say, Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death.
9 Koi hile, khopi dalha louva, umden ho vang chu, chemjam ham, natna hise ham, chule kel jeh ham’a thiding ahiuve. Amavang, khopi musea, Babylon mite henga kipelut chu hingdoh diu ahi.
He that abideth in this city shall die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence; but he that goeth out and surrendereth himself to the Chaldaeans that besiege you, he shall live, and bear away his life as a prey.
10 Ijeh inem itile, keiman hiche khopi hi, achung a apha hilouva hamsetna lhunsah dinga kakoi ahitai. Hiche khopi hi Babylon lengpa kipedoh ding, aman vut asosah ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
For I have set my face against this city for evil, and not for good, saith Jehovah. It shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.
11 Judah lengpa insung jah’a, Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ngaiyuvin, gatipeh in.
And to the house of the king of Judah: Hear ye the word of Jehovah,
12 Pakaiyin, David insung jah’a, hitin aseiye, jingkah seh in, thudih chu adih in tanpih uvin, chule amaho chu mibolgentheipa khut a kon in huhdoh uvin. achutiloule, nagitlounau jal'a chu, kalunghanna meikong banga hung kongdoh ding, koiman aphelmit joulou ding ahi.
O house of David! Thus saith Jehovah: Administer justice in season, and deliver him that is spoiled from the hand of the oppressor, lest my fury go forth like fire, and burn so that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings!
13 Chule keima tah in, Jerusalem douna gal kabol khum ding ahi. Amahon, koiham eiho eihung tongkha diuva, chule koiham hiche kulpi hin sujal dinga, atiuvin angong avaiput leuvin ahi, ati.
Behold, I am against thee, thou inhabitant of the valley, the rock of the plain, who sayest, “Who shall come down against us? Or who shall enter our habitations?”
14 Hijeh a chu, keima mong mongin, amaho chonna dung juiya talen kamatsah ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye. Chule keiman gammang lah mei kahal ding, hichun akimvel a umho abon’a akahvam ding ahi,” ati.
But I will punish you with the fruit of your doings. I will kindle a fire in her forest, which shall consume all around her.
