Jeremiah 7
1 Hiche thuhi, Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga aseiyin, hitin ati.
The word that came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
2 Kipat in, Pakai houin lutna kotbul’a gadingin, mipite henga hiche thuhi gaphongjaltan. Vo Juda mite, Pakaiya hungkon thuhi ngaiyun. Pakai chibai boh dinga hilai mun’a hunglut jousen, nabon’un ngaiyuvin.
Stand in the gate of Jehovah's house, and proclaim there this word, and say, Hear ye the word of Jehovah, all Judah, that enter in at these gates to worship Jehovah.
3 Pakai Van Pathen, Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye. Tuyeng injong, nahindolu leh nathilbolu aphalou jouse dalhauvin. Chutileh nangho na gamsunguva hi kachendensah ding nahiuve.
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
4 Ahinlah, hilaimun’a Pakai houin aumnai, nangho nahoidoh teidiu ahi, tia jou leh nal’a thusei ho kilheplhah sah hih un. Amahon muntin’a, Pakai houin hilaiya aume, Pakai houin hilaiya aume, tin asei lele uvin ahi.
Confide ye not in words of falsehood, saying, Jehovah's temple, Jehovah's temple, Jehovah's temple is this.
5 Amavang, nanghon nalunggel’u leh nathilbolu aphalou jouse na dalhahuva, nangho kah’a khat leh khat thu adih’a nakitanpihuva ahileh, keiman nangho kahepiuva kakhoto ding nahiuve.
But if ye thoroughly amend your ways and your doings, if ye really do justice between a man and his neighbour,
6 Nanghon gamdang kholjin miho, chagate leh meithai ho nabolgenthei dauva, chuleh toltha thisan so nabol dauva chuleh semthu Pathen ho nahou dauleh,
[if] ye oppress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed no innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your hurt;
7 Keiman napu napateu kanapehsa hiche gamsunga hi nangho aitih’a kachensah ding nahiuve.
then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers from of old even for ever.
8 Nanghon, Pakai houin hilaiya aume, eiho huhdoh’a um ihitauve, tia jouthu seile ho’a chun kingai hih’un, pannabei ahibouve.
Behold, ye confide in words of falsehood that cannot profit.
9 Hitia chu, nanghon naguh chatuva, tol nathauva, mitoh najonuva, Baal pathen houna gim namtwi nahluva chuleh pathen dangho nung najuijinguva,
What? steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not...
10 Chuteng hilai mun’a keima angsunga nahung dinuva, kamin pan’a ‘Eiho huhdohihitauve’ natiuva, chuleh nanghon thet um tahtah ho nahiti boljing diu ham?
then ye come and stand before me, in this house which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered, — in order to do all these abominations!
11 Nangho mitvet’a hi, hiche kamin’a kiminvosa houin hi, gucha michom ho kokhuh ahi, nati ngapu hitam? Tahbeh in hilai mun’a thilse kibol jouse keimatah in abonchan kamusoh hel e, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Is this house, which is called by my name, a den of robbers in your eyes? Even I, behold, I have seen it, saith Jehovah.
12 Shiloh mun’a tun cheuvin, keima neihouna diuva kamin’a kalhendohsa mun chu ahi. Kami Israelte chonset jeh’a achunguva ipi kabol hitam, gavetauvin ati.
For go now unto my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it, for the wickedness of my people Israel.
13 Nanghon chonset hijatpi nabolun, keiman tanglou hel’a kaseipih vangun ngaisah in naneipouve. Chuleh keiman nangho kakouvin neihoudeh pouve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
And now, because ye have done all these works, saith Jehovah, and I spoke unto you, rising up early and speaking, and ye heard not, and I called you, and ye answered not;
14 Hijeh’a chu, keiman Shiloh kasuhmang banga, tua hi kamin’a nakisonpiu hiche houin hi kasuhmang ding, chuleh napu napateu kapehsa hiche mun hi kasuhmang ding ahi.
I will even do unto the house which is called by my name, wherein ye trust, and unto the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh;
15 Chuleh keiman nainkote Israelte chunga kabol banga, nangho kamitmua kon’a sohchang dinga kadelmang ding nahiuve.
and I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, all the seed of Ephraim.
16 Vo Jeremiah, hiche mite hi taopih datan. Amaho din taodan lang chuleh kap jong kap hih in. Chuleh amaho din kahenga hung tao hih in, ajeh chu keiman kangaipih lou ding nahi.
And thou, pray not for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, and make not intercession to me; for I will not hear thee.
17 Amahon, Judah gam khopi ho leh Jerusalem khopi lailunga, anop nop abolu khu, nangman namu lou ham?
Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
18 Keima kalung analheh e! Vetan, chapang hon thing achom un, mipaten thil tona ding mei atih un, numeihon van lengnu asah u pathennu houna dingin changbong ameh un, changlhah asemuve. Chuleh keima lung natsah nadin amahon pathen dangho henga donthei thilto atohuvin, eipohnat sah uve.
The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink-offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
19 Amahon alung natsahuva alunghansah uva chu keima kahilou ham? tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Is it I whom they provoke to anger? saith Jehovah; is it not themselves, to the shame of their own face?
20 Hijeh chun Hatchungnung Pakaiyin aseiye, Keiman hilaiya hi, mihem hihen, sahem hihen, thingphung holeh loujaova lousoh gaho hijongleh, kalungsatna meikou chu kabuh lhah ding, chuleh meikou phalmit mohel banga akah ding ahi, ati.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, mine anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place; upon man, and upon beast, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.
21 Pakai Van Pathen leh Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye, pumgo thilto naboluva chuleh kilhaina thilto chom chom nabol hou chu, kilah uvin lang nanghon nachaisoh uvin.
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Add your burnt-offerings to your sacrifices, and eat the flesh.
22 Keiman napu napateu Egypt gam’a kon’a kahin puidoh chun, amaho kom’a pumgo thilto leh kilhaina thilto kangehpoi.
For I spoke not unto your fathers, nor commanded them concerning burnt-offerings and sacrifices, in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt;
23 Keiman kangeh chu,’ kathu ngaiyun, chutileh keima nangho Pathen kahia, nangho kamite nahidiu ahi. Chuleh naphatthei nadiuvin, ijakai kathupeh bangin boluvin, kati.
but I commanded them this thing, saying, Hearken unto my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people; and walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.
24 Ahivangin kamiten kathusei ngai nahsah in aneipouve. Amahon lungthim setah leh louchaltah in, adei deiyin aboluvin, mache louvin anungche jouvin ahi.
But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels, in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward and not forward.
25 Napu napateuvin Egypt gam ahin dalhah niuva pat tuni geiyin, keiman kalhacha themgaoho tanglouvin niseh in ahenguva kasol jingin ahi.
Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt, unto this day, have I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them;
26 Ahivangin kamiten kathusei angaipouve, chuleh anakhanguva jah ding jong agelpouve. Louchal tah in aum un, apu apateu sangin thilse jo aboltauve.
but they have not hearkened unto me, nor inclined their ear; and they have hardened their neck: they have done worse than their fathers.
27 Hijat hi amaho seipehin, amavang na sei ngaideh pouvinte. Nangman gihsalnan amaho kou jong lechun, amahon nahin houydeh pouvinte.
And thou shalt speak all these words unto them, but they will not hearken unto thee; and thou shalt call unto them, but they will not answer thee.
28 Chuteng nangin amaho seipeh in, Hiche nam mite hi Pakai a Pathenu thusei ngailoute ahiuvin, chuleh engbolna jong hilna-a kisanthei loute ahiuve. Alahuva thutah amangtan chuleh akamsungva jong thutah akijatapoi.
And thou shalt say unto them, This is the nation which hath not hearkened unto the voice of Jehovah their God, nor received correction; fidelity is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.
29 Nalu kihettol inlang puldouvin, chuteng molsang laiya nachangin ga kaptan. Ajeh chu Pakaiyin alunghan jeh’a hiche nam mite hi apaidoh a adalhah ahitai.
Cut off thy hair, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on the heights; for Jehovah hath rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.
30 Ajeh chu, Judah miten kamitmu changin chonset aboltauve. Amahon kamin a kiminvo houin sunga thet umtah doilim akoiyun, muntheng asubohtauve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith Jehovah; they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it.
31 Amahon milim houna doi-phung tampi, Ben-Hinnom phaicham munsanglai Topheth mun’a chun, asemdoh uvin, hichea chun amahon achanuteu leh a chapateu jong govam din atohdoh jengun ahiuve. Ahin hitobang thil hoise bolna din keiman thupeh kabolpon, chuleh kalung gel’a jong kagelkhapoi.
And they have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I commanded not, neither did it come up into my mind.
32 Hijeh chun heuvin, anikho chu ahunglhunge, tin Pakaiyin aseiye. Hiche munsanglai ho chu Topheth kititalou ding, chuleh Ben-Hinnom phaicham tiajong kihetalou ding, amavang kithagamna phaicham kitiding ahi. Amahon Topheth mun’a chu mithi avui avuidiu ahi, kivuina ding mun onglou hel’a mithi umding ahi.
Therefore, behold, days are coming, saith Jehovah, when it shall no more be said, Topheth, and Valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter; for they shall bury in Topheth, till there be no place.
33 Chuteng kamite athiho tahsa chu vachate leh gamsate neh leh chah hiding, amaho gahoh jamding koima cha umlou ding ahitai.
And the carcases of this people shall be food for the fowl of the heavens, and for the beasts of the earth; and none shall scare [them] away.
34 Chutia chu, keiman Jerusalem khopi lailunga kipa golnop kithong gin kasuh tangding ahi. Chuleh Judah khopiho’a jong kicheng dinga um mou leh moulang ho kipa thanop agin jouse kijatalou ding ahi. Ijeh inem itileh, agamsung chu ahom keuva kijam ding ahitai.
And I will cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for the land shall become a waste.
