Jeremiah 36
1 Judah lengpa Josiah chapa Jehoiakim lengvaipoh kumli lhinkum in, Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga thu hitin aseiye.
Now it came about in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, that this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
2 Nangman lekhajol khat kilah inlang, Josiah leng khanga pat tuni geiya keiman Israel leh Judah douna kathusei ho chule namtin vaipi douna kathusei ho abon'in jihlut in.
Take a book and put down in it all the words I have said to you against Israel and against Judah and against all the nations, from the day when my word came to you in the days of Josiah till this day.
3 Chuteng Judah ten achunguva kabolgut thilse hohi avel a akijah doh kit uva, akisih uva setna lampia kon’a ahung kilekit uva ahileh, keiman amaho chonsetna leh athemmonau kangaidam ding ahi, ati.
It may be that the people of Judah, hearing of all the evil which it is my purpose to do to them, will be turned, every man from his evil ways; so that they may have my forgiveness for their evil-doing and their sin.
4 Chuin Jeremiah in Neriah chapa Baruch chu akouvin, Pakaiyin ahenga aseipeh jouse chu abonchan akam in aseiyin, Baruch in lekhajol khat a ajihluttai.
Then Jeremiah sent for Baruch, the son of Neriah; and Baruch took down from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord which he had said to him, writing them in a book.
5 Hichun Jeremiah in Baruch jah’a, “Keima songkul'a kihen bangin kaum in, Pakai houin sunga kavahlut theitapoi,”
And Jeremiah gave orders to Baruch, saying, I am shut up, and am not able to go into the house of the Lord:
6 Hijeh chun nangma houin sunga naga cheding, anngol jou ajing nikholeh, Pakaiya hungkon hiche thuho, keiman kaseitho a nangma lekhajol a kajihlutsah hohi, naga simdoh ding ahi. Hitia chu, Judah gamsung jousea kon’a hungdoh mipite jousen ajah diuva, nasimpeh ding ahi.
So you are to go, reading there from the book, which you have taken down from my mouth, the words of the Lord, in the hearing of the people in the Lord's house, on a day when they go without food, and in the hearing of all the men of Judah who have come out from their towns.
7 Chutile amahon achennau lamsea kon’a hung kihei kit uva, ageisang behseh masang a, Pakai henga ngaidam athumdiu ahi. ajeh chu, Pakai lunghanna chu akhohse behseh jengin, amaho dingin kichat tijat umval jeng ahi, ati.
It may be that their prayer for grace will go up to the Lord, and that every man will be turned from his evil ways: for great is the wrath and the passion made clear by the Lord against this people.
8 Hichun Jeremiah thupeh bang chun, Baruch in agabol in, houin sunga alut in, mipiho jah dingin, Pakai thusei kijihlut hochu abonchan agasimdoh pihtai.
And Baruch, the son of Neriah, did as Jeremiah the prophet gave him orders to do, reading from the book the words of the Lord in the Lord's house.
9 Hiche hi, Josiah chapa Jehoiakim lengvaipoh kumnga lhinkum, lhako lhinna, anngol nikho khat’a, Baruch in abol ahi. Hiche nikho chu Judah gamsung pumpia kon’a mi tampi, Jerusalem houin’a chu hungkhomji, ahiuve.
Now it came about in the fifth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, that it was given out publicly that all the people in Jerusalem, and all the people who came from the towns of Judah to Jerusalem, were to keep from food before the Lord.
10 Chuin mipijouse jah dingin, lekhajol’a kijihlut Jeremiah thusei hochu abon'in, Baruch in asimdoh sohkeiyin ahi. Hichepet a chu ama houin maiya, houin sunga lekhasunpa Gemariah, Shaphan chapa indan sunga um ahin, hichu Pakai houin lutna kelkot thah kom cha ahi.
Then Baruch gave a public reading of the words of Jeremiah from the book, in the house of the Lord, in the room of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher square, as one goes in by the new doorway of the Lord's house, in the hearing of all the people.
11 Shaphan chapa Gemariah, Gemariah chapa Micaiah chun lekhajol sunga kon’a Pakai thusei kiphongdoh ho chu abonchan ajah soh phat in;
And Micaiah, the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, after hearing all the words of the Lord from the book,
12 Ama achesuh in, leng inpia lekha sunpan indan sunga alut in, gamvaipo ho toukhomna-a chun aluttai. Hiche mun’a umho chu: Lekha sunpa Elishama, Shemaiah chapa Delaiah, Acbor chapa Elnathan, Shaphan chapa Geramiah, Hananiah chapa Zedekiah chule midang jong ahiuve.
Went down to the king's house, to the scribe's room: and all the rulers were seated there, Elishama the scribe and Delaiah, the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah, the son of Hananiah, and all the rulers.
13 Micaiah chun, houin mun’a Baruch in lekhajol asimdoh’a athujol ho chu abonchan, amaho chu aseipehtan ahi.
Then Micaiah gave them an account of all the words which had come to his ears when Baruch was reading the book to the people.
14 Chuin vaipoten, Nethaniah chapa Jehudi, Shelemiah tupa, Cushi tusonpa chu, Baruch henga asol in, ama jah’a, ‘Nangman mipite jah dinga nasimdoh lekhajol chu hinchoi inlang, keiho kom’a hungsimdoh kit in,’tin aga seisahtauve. Hichun Baruch in a lekhajol chu ahin kichoiyin, vaipote henga chun ahungtai.
So all the rulers sent Jehudi, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, Take in your hand the book from which you have been reading to the people and come. So Baruch, the son of Neriah, took the book in his hand and came down to them.
15 Chuin amahon Baruch jah’a, “Touvin, nalekhajol chu keiho jah dingin simkit in,” atiuvin ahi. Baruch injong aseibangu chun asimpehtai.
Then they said to him, Be seated now, and give us a reading from it. So Baruch did so, reading it to them.
16 Amahon thu kisun ho chu ajah phat un, atijauvin khatle khat akiveto jeng uvin ahi. Hichun amahon Baruch jah’a, “Hiche thu hohi lengpa iseipeh teitei diu ahi,” atiuve.
Now it came about that, after hearing all the words, they said to one another in fear, We will certainly give the king an account of all these words.
17 Ahivangin, amahon Baruch chu thu adongun, Nangman thu hijat hi hoiya nalah ham, Jeremiah in najihsah ham? atiuvin ahi.
And questioning Baruch, they said, Say now, how did you put all these words down in writing from his mouth?
18 Baruch in adonbut in, “Jeremiah in thucheng khat khat a aseiya, keiman hiche lekhajol’a hi kajihlut ahi,” ati.
Then Baruch, answering, said, He said all these things to me by word of mouth, and I put them down with ink in the book.
19 Chuphat in amahon, “Nang jong Jeremiah jong, nanilhon in kiseldoh lhontan. Naumna lhon koimacha hetsah lhon hih in,” atiuvin ahi.
Then the rulers said to Baruch, Go and put yourself in a safe place, you and Jeremiah, and let no man have knowledge of where you are.
20 Chuin vaipo ho chun, lekhasunpa Elishama indan sunga alut un, lekhajol chu akoitup tauve. Chule athu jouse chu lengpa kom alhut tauvin ahi.
Then they went into the open square to the king; but the book they put away in the room of Elishama the scribe; and they gave the king an account of all the words.
21 Hichun lengpan Jehudi akouvin, lekhajol gala dingin asoltai. Jehudi injong Elishama indan sunga kikoi lekhajol cuh ahinchoiyin, lengpa le vaipo ho jah dingin asimpehtan ahi.
So the king sent Jehudi to get the book, and he took it from the room of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi gave a reading of it in the hearing of the king and all the rulers who were by the king's side.
22 Phalbi lei ahijeh'in, lengpa jong phalbi indan sunga chun atouvin, meibel a mei kitih chu a-oiyin ahi.
Now the king was seated in the winter house, and a fire was burning in the fireplace in front of him.
23 Chuin Jehudi in lekhajol chu, jolthum jolli asimchaiyin ahileh, lengpan chemchan a-at teltel in, mei lah’a alehlut in, hitichun aban ban in abol in, lekhajol chu abon'in meiya ahalvam soh hettan ahi.
And it came about that whenever Jehudi, in his reading, had got through three or four divisions, the king, cutting them with his penknife, put them into the fire, till all the book was burned up in the fire which was burning in the fireplace.
24 Thu hijat ajah vangun, lengpa ahin chule alhachate ahiuvin, koiman kisihna leh tijatna imacha aneideh pouvin ahi.
But they had no fear and gave no signs of grief, not the king or any of his servants, after hearing all these words.
25 Hichun Elnathan, Delaiah chule Gemariah ho chun, lengpa kom’a, lekhajol chu meiya ahalvam lou dingin ajol un, ahivangin lengpan amaho thusei chu angaipeh poi.
And Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made a strong request to the king not to let the book be burned, but he would not give ear to them.
26 Chujouvin, lengpan achapa Jerameel, Azriel chapa Seraiah chule Abdeel chapa Shelemiah akouvin, lekhasunpa Baruch leh Jeremiah themgaopa mandoh dingin thupeh aneitai. Ahivangin amani chu Pakaiyin aseldohtai.
And the king gave orders to Jerahmeel, the king's son, and Seraiah, the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah, the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet: but the Lord kept them safe.
27 Lengpan, Jeremiah thuseiho Baruch in lekhajol a ajihlut chu, meiya ahalvam nung chun; Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga hitin ahinsei kit in ahi.
Then after the book, in which Baruch had put down the words of Jeremiah, had been burned by the king, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,
28 Nangman lekhajol khat kilahkit inlang, Judah lengpa Jehoiakim in meiya ahalvamsa lekhajol’a kisun thuho chu, avel in abonchan jihlutsah sohkeiyin, ati.
Take another book and put down in it all the words which were in the first book, which Jehoiakim, king of Judah, put into the fire.
29 Chule Judah lengpa Jehoiakim jah’a, hitin seiyin: Nangman lekhajol chu, asunga thu um, Babylon lengpan hiche gam hi asuhmang ding chule agamsunga um mihem leh gancha ho jong asuhgam hel ding ahi, tia akijih lut jeh a meiya nahalvam ahi.
And about Jehoiakim, king of Judah, you are to say, This is what the Lord has said: You have put this book into the fire, saying, Why have you put in it that the king of Babylon will certainly come, causing the destruction of this land and putting an end to every man and beast in it?
30 Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, Judah lengpa Jehoiakim lengpa chapate David leng touna-a hungtou ding koima cha umlou helding ahiuve. Ama tahsa thilong jeng jong, sunlai nisa thohding leh janlai daitwi doudinga, vuilouva kipaiding ahi.
For this reason the Lord has said of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, He will have no son to take his place on the seat of David: his dead body will be put out to undergo the heat of the day and the cold of the night.
31 Keiman achonsetnau lethuhna-a, ama chungle ainsung mite chunga chule asohte chunga talen kamatsah ding ahiuve. Chule keiman Jerusalem mite chunga chule Judah mite jouse chunga hamsetna katepsa jouse kabuhlhah ding ahi. Ajeh chu amahon kahilna leh kasihsalna ngaisah in aneipouve.
And I will send punishment on him and on his seed and on his servants for their evil-doing; I will send on them and on the people of Jerusalem and the men of Judah, all the evil which I said against them, but they did not give ear.
32 Hijeh chun Jeremiah in lekhajol achom khat alan, lekhasunpa Baruch kom’a chun, akamcheng tah in aseipeh kit in, ajihlutsah tai. Chule lekhajol masa, Judah lengpa Jehoiakim in meiya ahalvamsa-a, kijihlut thucheng jouse abonchan ajihlutsah kit in, chule thucheng tampi jong akigop ben ahi.
Then Jeremiah took another book, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who put down in it, from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the book which had been burned in the fire by Jehoiakim, king of Judah: and in addition a number of other words of the same sort.
