Jeremiah 28
1 Judah lengpa Zedekiah lengchan kalkumli lhin kum, alha-nga lhin chun, nikhat Gibeon khomi Azzur chapa Hananiah chun, Pakai Houin ah, thempu holeh mipi angsung’a, keima jahtah in, hitin aseiye.
That same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the LORD’s house, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,
2 Hatchung nung Pakai, Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye. Keiman, angonguva nakihennau Babylon lengpa namkol chu kaheboh’a kalah doh ding ahitai.
“The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says, ‘I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
3 Keiman kumni sung’a, Nebuchadnezzar lengpan Babylon gam’a anapoh mang, Houin sung gouthil ho jouse, kahin le pohlut kitding ahi.
Within two full years I will bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORD’s house that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place and carried to Babylon.
4 Chule Babylon gam’a, sohchang’a kikaimang Judah lengpa Jehoiakim chapa Jehoiachin leh midangho jouse jong, keiman kahin le puilut kitding ahi. Keiman Babylon lengpa namkol nangonguva kihen chu kaheboh ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye,’ati.
I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, who went to Babylon,’ says the LORD; ‘for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.’”
5 Hichun Jeremiah themgao pan jong, Thempu holeh mipi ho angsung’a chun, Hananiah chu a donbut in.
Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people who stood in the LORD’s house,
6 Hitin aseiye, “Amen, nasei bang chun guilhung hen! Pakaiyin nagaothu seiho chu abonchan, na sei bang bang in boltei hen! Babylon gam’a sohchang a kikaimang ho leh Houin sunga kon’a kipomang goulu ho, abonchan hiche mun hinnung lhut teitei hen!
even the prophet Jeremiah said, “Amen! May the LORD do so. May the LORD perform your words which you have prophesied, to bring again the vessels of the LORD’s house, and all those who are captives, from Babylon to this place.
7 Amavang nangma jah dingle mipite jah dinga, tunia keiman hiche thu kasei hi, phaten ngaiyin.
Nevertheless listen now to this word that I speak in your ears, and in the ears of all the people:
8 Nang le kei masanga themgao hon, khanglui laiya pat, namtin vaipi douna gaothu anaseiyuvin, gal umding, kel lhah ding, gamna hise chom chom in miho gihna ananeiyuvin ahi.
The prophets who have been before me and before you of old prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, of evil, and of pestilence.
9 Chuti ahijeh chun, Themgao khat in chamna leh monna gaothu asei chu, mutheiya ahung guilhun teng le bou, amapa chu Pakaiya kon ahi mong e, iti eihon ihetbep dingu ahi, ati.
As for the prophet who prophesies of peace, when the word of the prophet happens, then the prophet will be known, that the LORD has truly sent him.”
10 Hichun Hananiah themgao pan Jeremiah ngong’a kihen namkol chu, aladoh in aheh bongtai.
Then Hananiah the prophet took the bar from off the prophet Jeremiah’s neck, and broke it.
11 Chuin Hannaniah jong chun, mipite jah dingin, avelin thu aseiyin, ‘Pakaiyin hitin aseiye: Keiman namtin vaipi sohchanna angonguva kihen, Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar namkol chu, kumni sunga kalahdoh a, kaheboh ding ahi, ati. Hichun Jeremiah themgao chun Houin adalhan achetai.
Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, “The LORD says: ‘Even so I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from off the neck of all the nations within two full years.’” Then the prophet Jeremiah went his way.
12 Hananiah themgaopa toh akidinte jou chun, Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga thu ahinsei kittai.
Then the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, after Hananiah the prophet had broken the bar from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
13 Chenlang Hananiah chu gaseipehtan, “Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, nangman thing nam-kol in nakheltai.
“Go, and tell Hananiah, saying, ‘The LORD says, “You have broken the bars of wood, but you have made in their place bars of iron.”
14 Ijeh inem itile, Hatchungnung Pakai Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye: Keiman namtin vaipi ngong’a thih namkol kakoipih’a, amaho chu Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar soh’a pangdin ahi. Chule keiman ijakai ama thunoiya kakoi ding, gamsa ho geiya ama kapeh doh ahi, tin seipeh in, ati.
For the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel says, “I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they will serve him. I have also given him the animals of the field.”’”
15 Chuin Jeremiah themgao chun, Hananiah jah’a hitin aseiye. “Phaten ngaiyin, Hananiah! Pakaiyin nangma nasol ahipoi. Ahivangin, tun mipiten jouva gaothu nasei hi, atahsan uve.
Then the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet, “Listen, Hananiah! The LORD has not sent you, but you make this people trust in a lie.
16 Hijeh Chun Pakaiyin hitin aseiye. Nangma nathi teiding ahi. Nangman Pakai doumah nabol jeh’a, tukum sung’a nathi tei ding ahi, ati.
Therefore the LORD says, ‘Behold, I will send you away from off the surface of the earth. This year you will die, because you have spoken rebellion against the LORD.’”
17 Hichun, lhani jouvin Hananiah themgaopa chu athitai.
So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.
