< Jeremiah 26 >
1 Judah lengpa Josiah chapa, Jehoiakim kipattil chun, Pakaiya kon in Jeremiah henga thu ahung lhung e.
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, this word came from Yahweh, saying,
2 Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Pakai houin mai leitol’a gading inlang, Judah gamsung jousea kon’a hilai mun’a Pakai hou dinga hungho kom’a, Keiman seidinga kapeh thuho chu gaphong dohtan. Kathupeh jouse chu khat jong seilouva nakoi louhel ding ahi.
“Yahweh says this: Stand in the courtyard of my house and speak about all the cities of Judah who come to worship at my house. Proclaim all the words that I have commanded you to say to them. Do not cut short any word!
3 Ijem tileh, amahon nathusei hin ngaiyuntin, amitakip chu athilse bolnauva kon’a hung kile hei kit diu ahi. Chuteng keiman jong kalung kakhel’a, athilse boljeh uva achunguva cheding a kagotsa manthahna chu kakhel thei ahi, ati.
It may be that they will listen, that each man will turn from his wicked ways, so I will relent concerning the disaster that I am planning to bring on them because of the wickedness of their practices.
4 Chuleh nangman ajah uva, Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, natiding, Nanghon kathusei hi nangai dauva chule kahupeh hohi najui dau leh
So you must say to them, 'Yahweh says this: If you do not listen to me so as to walk in my law that I have placed before you—
5 Chuleh kalhacha themgao thusei nangai dauva, Avel vel’a nahenguva kahinsol, amaho gihna donlouva nakoiyu leh,
if you do not listen to the words of my servants the prophets whom I am persistently sending to you—but you have not listened!—
6 Keiman hichi houin Pathen thingkhong kikoina hi, Shiloh kasuhmang banga kasuhmang ding ahi. Chuleh Jerusalem hi, namtin vaipi lah’a gaosap cheng khopi kahisah ding ahi.
then I will make this house like Shiloh; I will turn this city into a curse in the sight of all the nations on earth.'”
7 Hichun, thempu holeh themgao ho, chuleh mipi hon, abonchauvin houin leitol’a Jeremiah thusi chu angaicheh uvin, ajasohtauve.
The priests, the prophets, and all the people heard Jeremiah announcing these words in Yahweh's house.
8 Jeremiah chun, Pakaiyin aseiding a athupeh jouse aseijousoh phat in, thempu ho leh themgao ho chuleh mipiho chun, ama amaun “That doh un” tin asamtauvin ahi
So it happened that when Jeremiah had finished announcing all that Yahweh commanded him to say to all the people, the priests, prophets, and all the people seized him and said, “You will certainly die!
9 Amahon, “ipi thuneina naneiya nangin Pakai min’a gaothu naseiya, hiche houin hi Shiloh banga kisumang ding ahi. Natiham? Ipijeh a, hiche khopi kisuse ding, achung beihel’a khogem’a umding ahi, tia nasei ham? atiuvin, Jeremiah chu aumchah kheh tauvin ahi.
Why have you prophesied in Yahweh's name and said that this house will become like Shiloh and this city will become desolate, with no inhabitant?” For all the people had formed a mob against Jeremiah in Yahweh's house.
10 Chuin Judah leng chapaten, thilsoh umchan chu ajahdoh phat un, leng inpia kon in Pakai houin gei ahunglheiyun, Pakai houin kelkot thah phunga chun, thutanna neidingin atoutauvin ahi.
Then the officials of Judah heard these words and went up from the king's house to Yahweh's house. They sat in the gateway at the New Gate of Yahweh's house.
11 Hichun thempu holeh themgao hon, leng chapate leh mipite jouse jah dingin, Jeremiah themmo achennau thu aseitauve. Amahon, hichepa hi thidinga lomtah ahi. Ajeh chu aman hiche houin leh khopidounan gaothu aseiyin, najah’u chu ahi, atitauve.
The priests and the prophets spoke to the officials and to all the people. They said, “It is right for this man to die, for he prophesied against this city, just as you heard with your own ears!”
12 Chuin Jeremiah chun, akihonna thu aseiyin, “Pakaiyin hiche in leh hiche khopi douna gaothu seiding a keima ehinsol ahi. Hichu najah’u chengse chu ahitai,” ati.
So Jeremiah spoke to all the officials and all the people and said, “Yahweh has sent me out to prophesy against this house and this city, to say all the words that you have heard.
13 Hijeh chun, tun nalam lhah uleh nathilse bolnau chu, kisemphat unlang, Pakai na Pathen’u thu ngaiyuvin nachung uva lhung dinga agonsa hijongle, alung akhel kit ding ahi.
So now, improve your ways and your practices, and listen to the voice of Yahweh your God so that he will relent concerning the disaster that he has proclaimed against you.
14 Keima dingin vang, veuvin, nakhut uva um kahi. Nanghon pha nasah bangule dih nasah bangun neiboltauvin.
I myself—look at me!—am in your hand. Do to me what is good and right in your eyes.
15 Amavang kichentah in heuvin, Ijemtia keima neithauva ahileh nanghon themmona neilou mipa nathau hiding; Hichea mona jouse chu nangho leh hiche khopi sung’a cheng amitakip chung a, hiche themmona bei thisan chu nakilhut kkhumdiu ahi. Ajeh chu, tahbeh monga nangho henga thu hicheng hi seipih ding’a, Pakaiyin keima eihinsol ahibouve,” ati.
But you must surely know that if you kill me, then you are bringing innocent blood on yourselves and on this city and its inhabitants, for Yahweh has truly sent me to you to proclaim all these words for your ears.”
16 Hichun leng chapate leh mipiten abonchauvin, thempuho leh themgaoho henga chun, a seitauve. “Hiche mipa hi thidinga lom ahipoi. Ajeh chu aman Pakai i- Pathen min pan’a thu hicheng hi eiho eihung seipih u ahibouve, atiuvin” ahi.
Then the officials and all the people said to the priests and prophets, “It is not right for this man to die, for he has proclaimed things to us in the name of Yahweh our God.”
17 Hichun, gamsunga upa chingthei phabep akipatdoh un, mipi kikhom ho henga chun, hitin aseiyuve.
Then men from the elders of the land rose up and spoke to the entire assembly of the people.
18 “Judah lengpa Hezekiah phat laiyin, Moresheth chapa Micah chun, hitobang gaothu anaseiyin. Aman Judah mite henga ana sei chu, Thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin aseiye. “Zion lhang chu loulai banga kikai ding, Jerusalem jong kisusea, abal ho leh asesa ho chu, alhuh lhuh’a kise sang ding, Chule Houin kisahna lhang chu, gammang banga thingho keh dimset ding ahi,” anati.
They said, “Micah the Morashite was prophesying in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah. He spoke to all the people of Judah and said, 'Yahweh of hosts says this: Zion will become a plowed field, Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble, and the hill of the temple will become a thicket.'
19 Ahivangin, Hezekiah lengpa leh agamsung mipiten, amapa chu anathadoh mongu hinam? Ahipoi, abonchauvin amahon athilse bolnauva konin ahung kile heiyuvin, Pakai heng’a alunglheina ana ngah’un. Hichun Pakaiyin alung akhel in, amaho douna thilse anaphondohsa chu anabolda hilou ham? Chutile eihon tua ipi dinga, hibang thilse hi eiho leh eihon ikilhut khum jeng diu ham? atitauve.
Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all of Judah put him to death? Did he not fear Yahweh and appease the face of Yahweh so that Yahweh would relent concerning the disaster that he proclaimed to them? So will we do greater evil against our own lives?”
20 Hiche laichun, Kiriath-jearim khomi Shemaiah chapa Uriah jong chun, Pakai minin gaothu, Jeremiah seibang bang chu anaseiyin ahi.
Meanwhile there was another man who prophesied in the name of Yahweh—Uriah son of Shemaiah from Kiriath Jearim—he also prophesied against this city and this land, agreeing with all of Jeremiah's words.
21 Chuin Jehoiakim lengpa leh a sepia lamkai hon, Uriah thusei chu ajauvin; Amapa that ding chun lengpan mi asoltan ahi. Ahivangin hiche thu chu, Uriah in ajahdoh phat in, akichatan, Egypt gamsung’a ajamluttai.
But when King Jehoiakim and all his soldiers and officials heard his word, then the king tried to put him to death, but Uriah heard and was afraid, so he ran away and went to Egypt.
22 Chujouvin, Jehoiakim lengpan, Uriah gamandoh dingin Acbor chapa Elnathan leh mi phabeppi, Egypt gamsung a ana sollut in ahi.
Then King Jehoiakim sent out men to go to Egypt—Elnathan son of Akbor and men to go into Egypt after Uriah.
23 Amahon Uriah chu agahol doh uvin, aman’un, Jehoiakim Lengpa kom’a ahin le puilut kittauve. Hichun lengpan Uriah chu chemjam in asatlihh in, along chu, milham ho kivuina mun’a asepluttauve.
They took Uriah out from Egypt and brought him to King Jehoiakim. Then Jehoiakim killed him with a sword and sent his corpse out to the graves of the ordinary people.
24 Hitajeng jongle, Jeremiah chu, Shaphan chapa Hikam chun nasatah in ana huh in, mipi khut a thading in pehdoh in ana umtapoi.
But the hand of Ahikam son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, so he was not given into the hand of the people to be put to death.
