Jeremiah 9
1 Kaluchang hi twikul hihen, chuleh kamit teni hi lhitwi putna twinah hileh, sun leh jan in kamite kithatsa ho din, keima kaple maovin umtange.
Oh that my head were waters, and my eyes a spring of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people.
2 Ohe, kamite hi dalha-a vahmang thei hing ting, chuleh nelphai gamthip’a kholjin miho gemun’a kiselmang thei hileng, kati! Ajeh chu amaho hi mitoh jonbol leh milhem chavai jeng ahiuve.
Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men; that I might leave my people, and go from them. For they are all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men."
3 Kamite chu, aleiguiyu thalpi kamsalsa bangin, jouthu seiding salhemin aum’un, thutah dinpijou koima aumpouve. Alahuva setna akhang tul tul jengin, keima jeng jong eihetapouve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
"They bend their tongue as a bow. Falsehood and not truth has grown strong in the land; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they do not know me," says the LORD.
4 Hitijeh chun, naheng-nakom ho’a konin kichih theiyun, chuleh nasopi jong ginchat dauvin. Ajeh chu sopi leh sopi jong agomkom hol’a milhem jeng ahiuve. Chuleh gollepai ho jong mi seise leh gaosap’a vahkoile ngen ahiuve.
"Everyone be on guard against his neighbor, and do not trust any brother; for every brother is a deceiver, and every neighbor will go about with slanders.
5 Amitakip joulenal in akilhemtouvin, koima thudih sei aumpouve. Jouthu seina leh milhep lhah aleiyu akithemchuh sah’un, chonset abol be be jingun, lungkhel ding agelpouve.
Everyone deceives his neighbor, and does not speak the truth. They have taught their tongue to speak lies; they do evil, they do not cease so as to return.
6 Amahon kijoulhepna chunga kijoulhepna abol be be un, chuleh keima hetding donse louvin akoitauve, tun Pakaiyin aseiye.
Oppression upon oppression, and deceit upon deceit. They refuse to know me," says the LORD.
7 Hijeh chun Thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ‘Vetan, keiman amaho kapatep ding, thih meiya kigou; jolla banga kago jol ding ahiuve. Amahon aheng-akom jah’a thu angei ngei aseiyun, ahinlah alungsunguvin mi thina ding jeng ageluve.
Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, "Look, I will melt them, and try them; for how should I deal with the wickedness of the daughter of my people?
8 Aleigui jouseu thina thei thalpi tobang jeng ahin, joulhepna jeng thu aseijun; abonchaovin aheng akom ah chamna asei nauvin, hinlah alunggon uvin aheng akom chan lhihna jeng ahi.
Their tongue is a deadly arrow; it speaks deceit: one speaks peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth, but in his heart he lies in wait for him.
9 Hicheng jeh’a hi, keiman amaho talen kamatsah da-a, chuleh hitobang nam mite chunga chu, keima tah in phukalah da ding ham? tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Shall I not visit them for these things?" says the LORD; "shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?"
10 keiman molsang ho kacham ingting, gamthip’a hamdongho din kap inge. Ajeh chu amaho agoplha soh’uvin chuleh akeovin aumgamtauve. Koiman ajotpa tapon, ganchate husa jong akijatapoi. Vachate leh gamsate jong ajammang soh heltauve.
"For the mountains I will take up weeping and wailing, and for the pastures of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are laid waste so that no one passes through; nor can men hear the voice of the cattle. Both the birds of the sky and the animals have fled, they are gone."
11 Keiman, Jerusalem hi khogem kasosah ding, chuleh ngeihonte kokhuh’a kasemding ahi. Chuleh Judah gamsung khopi ho ahomkeova kalha-a, aching ding beihel’a kakoi ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
"I will make Jerusalem heaps, a dwelling place of jackals; and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant."
12 Koiham miching, hicheho abon’a lethemsoh kei ding? Hicheho kiphonna Pakai kamsoh koikom’a lhung ham, chuleh ahilchen thei ding? Ibol’a gamsung hi segam’a chuleh ahomkeova kijam’a, koima cha chele vahle umlou hitam? Kati.
"Who is the wise man, that may understand this? Who is he to whom the mouth of the LORD has spoken, that he may declare it? Why is the land perished and burned up like a wilderness, so that none passes through?"
13 Pakaiyin aseiye, “Kamiten kathupeh adalhah uva, chuleh kasei ajuilou jeh un, achunguva hichenghi soh ahitai.
The LORD says, "Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neither walked in it,
14 Amahon, louchal tah in ama ama deicheh abolun, apu apateu bol bang bangin, Baal doilim chu chibai abohtauvin ahi.
but have walked after the stubbornness of their own heart, and after the Baals, which their fathers taught them;
15 Hiche jehchun, Pakai Van Pathen leh Israel Pathen chun aseitai: Vetan, keiman hiche mite aneh diuva namtul jung kha kapeh ding chuleh adondiuva thina gutwi kakoipeh ding ahi, ati.
therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, 'Look, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.
16 Chuleh keiman amahohi, apu apateuvin jong ana jahkhah lou, namtin vaipi lah’a kathethang diu, abonchauva kasuhgamhel kahsea chemjam’a kadelkhum diu ahi,” ati.
I will scatter them also among the nations, whom neither they nor their fathers have known; and I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them.'"
17 Pakai Van Pathen in hitin aseiye, “Gelun ipi soh hitam! Thi-op themho kouvun chuleh thi-opna kala sathem numeiho kousah” un,
Thus says the LORD of hosts, "Consider, and call for the mourning women, that they may come; and send for the skillful women, that they may come:"
18 Gakou loiyun, lhasetah in kaploiyu hite. Mitlhi longhel hol in eikasah’uhen, atiuve.
"and let them make haste, and take up a wailing for us, that our eyes may run down with tears, and our eyelids gush out with waters.
19 Ngaiyun, Jerusalem mite ka-ogin akijai. Eiho ikijumsouva eikisumang hel’u ahitai. Igam u dalhatau hite. Ajih chu ichennau in jouse akisuse gamheltai, atiuve.
For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, 'How are we ruined. We are greatly confounded, because we have forsaken the land, because they have cast down our dwellings.'"
20 Hijeh chun numei ho, Pakai thusei ngaiphauvin chule nanakhang sung un lutsah un; nacha nuteu chengse kadan hil un chule mijousen aheng akom’a thilhah kadan hil cheh hen.
"Yet hear the word of the LORD, you women, and let your ear receive the word of his mouth; and teach your daughters wailing, and everyone her neighbor lamentation.
21 Ajeh chu thinan i-kot phung tinchang’u ahin phan chule leng inpi chengse insung ahin phatai. Kholaija chapang jouse alhamsoh in, chule vengning lah dunga khangdong chengse jong alhamsoh heltai.
'For death has come up into our windows, it is entered into our palaces; to cut off the children from outside, and the young men from the streets.'
22 Pakaiyin hiti hin aseije tin, seitan. Mithi long chu loujaova eh-banga kisevum lha ding, chang atpa nunga changphal banga kise diu, achomkhom beihel hiding ahi, tin seijin, ati.
Speak, 'Thus says the LORD, "The dead bodies of men shall fall as dung on the open field, and as the handful after the harvester; and none shall gather them."'"
23 Pakaiyin hiti hin aseije, achingpa jong achih jal’in kiloupisah dahen; ahatpa jong ahat jal’in kiloupisah dahen, chule ahaopa jong ahao jal’in kiloupisah dahen.
Thus says the LORD, "Do not let the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, do not let the rich man glory in his riches;
24 Hinlah ahaopa chu hiti hin kiloupisah johen, ama chun keima eihe khen theijin tin; ajeh chu lungsetna longlouva nei jing keima kahin, leiset chunga thutanna adih jeng kabol’e tihedoh hen, hiti chun keima kakipah thanomji ti he them hen.
but let him who boasts boast in this, that he has understanding, and knows me, that I am the LORD who exercises loving kindness, justice, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight," says the LORD.
25 “Ven, nikho ho ahung lhung tai tin, Pakaiyin aseiye; keiman cheptan loulai chengse chunga talen kapeh ding ahi.
"Look, the days come," says the LORD, "that I will punish all those who are circumcised in uncircumcision:
26 Egypt, Judah amaho chateu le Moab ahin chule neldi gam’a cheng asam kitan kivel ho jaona ahi. Ajeh chu hiche nam mite hin chep akitan pouvin, Israel insung jeng jong alungthima cheptan lou ahi,” ati.
Egypt, and Judah, and Edom, and the people of Ammon, and Moab, and all that have the corners of their hair cut off, who dwell in the wilderness; for all the nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised in heart."
