1 Judah lengpa Josiah chapa Jehoiakim lengvaipoh kumli lhinkum in, Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga thu hitin aseiye.
In the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, 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 scroll of a book, and write in it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel, against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spoke to you, from the days of Josiah even to 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 house of Judah will hear all the evil which I intend to do to them, that they may each return from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity 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 called Baruch the son of Neriah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the LORD’s words, which he had spoken to him, on a scroll of a book.
5 Hichun Jeremiah in Baruch jah’a, “Keima songkul'a kihen bangin kaum in, Pakai houin sunga kavahlut theitapoi,”
Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, “I am restricted. I can’t go into the LORD’s house.
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.
Therefore you go, and read from the scroll which you have written from my mouth, the LORD’s words, in the ears of the people in the LORD’s house on the fast day. Also you shall read them in the ears of all Judah who come out of their cities.
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 they will present their supplication before the LORD, and will each return from his evil way; for the LORD has pronounced great anger and wrath 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.
Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the LORD’s words 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 in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem, proclaimed a fast 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 read the words of Jeremiah from the book in the LORD’s house, in the room of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the upper court, at the entry of the new gate of the LORD’s house, in the ears 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;
When Micaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all the LORD’s words,
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.
he went down into the king’s house, into the scribe’s room; and behold, all the princes were sitting there, Elishama the scribe, Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, Elnathan the son of Achbor, Gemariah the son of Shaphan, Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
13 Micaiah chun, houin mun’a Baruch in lekhajol asimdoh’a athujol ho chu abonchan, amaho chu aseipehtan ahi.
Then Micaiah declared to them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of 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.
Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, “Take in your hand the scroll in which you have read in the ears of the people, and come.” So Baruch the son of Neriah took the scroll in his hand, and came to them.
15 Chuin amahon Baruch jah’a, “Touvin, nalekhajol chu keiho jah dingin simkit in,” atiuvin ahi. Baruch injong aseibangu chun asimpehtai.
They said to him, “Sit down now, and read it in our hearing.” So Baruch read it in their hearing.
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 when they had heard all the words, they turned in fear one toward another, and said to Baruch, “We will surely tell the king of all these words.”
17 Ahivangin, amahon Baruch chu thu adongun, Nangman thu hijat hi hoiya nalah ham, Jeremiah in najihsah ham? atiuvin ahi.
They asked Baruch, saying, “Tell us now, how did you write all these words at his mouth?”
18 Baruch in adonbut in, “Jeremiah in thucheng khat khat a aseiya, keiman hiche lekhajol’a hi kajihlut ahi,” ati.
Then Baruch answered them, “He dictated all these words to me with his mouth, and I wrote them 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 princes said to Baruch, “You and Jeremiah go hide. Don’t let anyone know 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.
They went in to the king into the court, but they had laid up the scroll in the room of Elishama the scribe. Then they told all the words in the hearing of the king.
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 scroll, and he took it out of the room of Elishama the scribe. Jehudi read it in the hearing of the king, and in the hearing of all the princes who stood beside the king.
22 Phalbi lei ahijeh'in, lengpa jong phalbi indan sunga chun atouvin, meibel a mei kitih chu a-oiyin ahi.
Now the king was sitting in the winter house in the ninth month, and there was a fire in the brazier burning before 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.
When Jehudi had read three or four columns, the king cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was in the brazier, until all the scroll was consumed in the fire that was in the brazier.
24 Thu hijat ajah vangun, lengpa ahin chule alhachate ahiuvin, koiman kisihna leh tijatna imacha aneideh pouvin ahi.
The king and his servants who heard all these words were not afraid, and didn’t tear their garments.
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.
Moreover Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the scroll; but he would not listen 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.
The king commanded Jerahmeel the king’s son, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to arrest Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but the LORD hid them.
27 Lengpan, Jeremiah thuseiho Baruch in lekhajol a ajihlut chu, meiya ahalvam nung chun; Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga hitin ahinsei kit in ahi.
Then the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, after the king had burned the scroll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of 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 again another scroll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first scroll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah has burned.
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.
Concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah you shall say, ‘The LORD says: “You have burned this scroll, saying, ‘Why have you written therein, saying, “The king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land, and will cause to cease from there man and animal”?’”
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.
Therefore the LORD says concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: “He will have no one to sit on David’s throne. His dead body will be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
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.
I will punish him, his offspring, and his servants for their iniquity. I will bring on them, on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and on the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them, but they didn’t listen.”’”
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 scroll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and many similar words were added to them.
