Jeremiah 11
1 Jeremiah koevah, BAWIPA koehoi, ka tho e lawk teh hettelah a o,
The word that came to Jeremiah from YHWH, saying,
2 Hete lawkkam lawk hah thai nateh, Judah taminaw hoi Jerusalem kaawmnaw koevah dei pouh.
"Hear the words of this covenant, and speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
3 BAWIPA, Isarelnaw e Cathut ni lawk a dei e teh dei pouh, Hete lawkkam dawk e lawk ka ngai hoeh e tami teh, thoebonae khang naseh.
and say to them, 'Thus says YHWH, the God of Israel: "Cursed is the man who doesn't hear the words of this covenant,
4 Izip ram tahmang koehoi kai ni na mintoenaw ka hrawi nah ka poe e lawk teh, kai ni ka lawk ngai awh nateh, kaie lawkkam lawk na tarawi awh pawiteh, ka tami lah na o awh vaiteh, kai teh nangmae Cathut lah ka o han.
which I commanded your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron furnace, saying, "Obey my voice, and do them, according to all which I command you: so you shall be my people, and I will be your God;
5 Hottelah pawiteh, na mintoenaw koe lawk ka kam e ka kuep sak vaiteh, maito sanu hoi khoitui lawngnae ram nangmouh ni sahnin e coung awh e patetlah na poe awh han ati. Kai ni Amen, BAWIPA ka ti.
that I may establish the oath which I swore to your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey," as at this day.'" Then I answered, and said, "Amen, YHWH."
6 BAWIPA ni kai koevah, hete lawknaw pueng hah Judah ram hoi Jerusalem e lamthung pueng koe hramkhai haw. Hete lawkkam lawk heh ngai awh nateh, tarawi awh.
YHWH said to me, "Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, 'Hear the words of this covenant, and do them.
7 Izip ram hoi na mintoenaw ka tâcokhai hnin hoi sahnin totouh, amom ka thaw teh, kâhruetcuetnae lawk tuhoitu ka dei pouh, ka lawk ngai awh, ka ti pouh.
For I earnestly protested to your fathers in the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, even to this day, rising early and protesting, saying, Obey my voice.
8 Hatei ngai awh hoeh, banglahai noutna awh hoeh, amamae lungthin kathout lungpatanae koe lah a pâlei awh. Hatdawkvah, ka poe e lawk a tarawi ngai awh hoeh dawkvah, lawkkam dawk kaawm e thoebonae pueng ka khang sak.
Yet they did not obey, nor turn their ear, but walked everyone in the stubbornness of their evil heart: therefore I brought on them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do, but they did not do them.'"
9 Hathnukkhu, BAWIPA ni kai koevah a dei, Judah taminaw hoi vah kaawm taminaw koe thoe sak hanlah a kâcoun awh.
YHWH said to me, "A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
10 Ka lawk heh ngai awh hoeh. A mintoenaw e yonnae koe lah koung kamlang awh toe. Alouke cathutnaw e thaw tawk hanelah a kâbang awh. Isarel imthungkhunaw hoi Judah imthungkhunaw ni mintoenaw e lawkkam teh a raphoe awh.
They are turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, who refused to hear my words; and they are gone after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers.
11 Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, ahnimouh dawk runae ka pha sak vaiteh, hlout awh mahoeh. Kai koe hram awh van han eiteh, hotnaw e a lawk teh ka thai pouh mahoeh.
Therefore thus says YHWH, 'Look, I will bring disaster on them, which they shall not be able to escape; and they shall cry to me, but I will not listen to them.
12 Judah khonaw hoi Jerusalem e taminaw ni a cei awh vaiteh, hmuitui ouk a sawi pouh e cathutnaw koevah a hram awh han, hatei runae kâhmo awh navah, ahnimouh ni rungngang thai mahoeh.
Then shall the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem go and cry to the gods to which they offer incense: but they will not save them at all in the time of their trouble.
13 Oe, Judah, na khonaw yit touh cathutnaw na tawn. Baal cathut koevah kaya ka tho e hmuitui hmaisawi thuengnae khoungroe hah Jerusalem e lamthung yit touh na sak awh.
For according to the number of your cities are your gods, Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem have you set up altars to the shameful thing, even altars to burn incense to Baal.'
14 Hete taminaw han ratoum pouh hanh awh. Pahrennae hai het pouh hanh awh, patang rucatnae kâhmo nah kai na kaw nakunghai, kai ni ka thai mahoeh.
Therefore do not pray for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them; for I will not hear them in the time that they cry to me at the time of their trouble."
15 Panuet ka tho e hno moikapap sak nah laihoi, ka pahren e ni kaie im dawk tawk han bangmaw a tawn. Nangmouh koehoi kathounge moi teh a tapoung toe. Yonnae na sak navah, na lung ahawi awh.
"What has my beloved to do in my house, since she has done many vile deeds? Can holy meat avert your disaster so that you can rejoice?"
16 BAWIPA ni nangmouh teh olivekung ka naw e a paw ka hawi poung e ati. Hatei, cairing laihoi a van hmai a patawi teh, a kang koung a khoe.
YHWH called your name, "A green olive tree, beautiful with goodly fruit." With the noise of a great tumult he has kindled fire on it, and its branches are broken.
17 Isarel imthungnaw hoi Judah imthungnaw ni Baal koevah, hmuitui a awi roi teh, kathout hno sak hoi ka lungkhuek sak roi dawkvah, nang na kaungkung ransahu BAWIPA ni na lathueng vah ronae pha sak hanlah lawk a tâtueng toe.
For YHWH of hosts, who planted you, has pronounced evil against you, because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have worked for themselves in provoking me to anger by offering incense to Baal."
18 BAWIPA ni na panuesak teh, ka panue toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a sak awh e naw hah be na hmu sak toe.
YHWH gave me knowledge of it, and I knew it: then you showed me their doings.
19 Hatei, kai teh, a nuen ka nem e tuca thei hanlah a hrawi awh e patetlah doeh ka o, ahnimouh ni kai thei hanlah kho a khan awh. Akung hoi a pawnaw hai be raphoe vaiteh, kahringnaw ram koehoi ahni teh tâkhawng awh sei, apinihai a min teh pâkuem hanh naseh, telah a dei awh e hah ka panuek hoeh.
But I was like a gentle lamb that is led to the slaughter; and I did not know that they had devised devices against me, saying, "Let us destroy the tree with its fruit, and let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be no more remembered."
20 Hatei, ransahu BAWIPA, kalan lah lawkcengkung, lungthin hoi pouknae kanoutkung, ahnimouh van moi na pathungnae heh na hmawt sak haw, ka coungnae abuemlah na kut dawkvah na poe.
"But, YHWH of hosts, who judges righteously, who tests the heart and the mind, I shall see your vengeance on them; for to you have I revealed my cause."
21 Hatdawkvah, nange hringnae thei hoeh nahanlah BAWIPA min lahoi lawk dei han leih, telah nahoeh pawiteh, kaimae kut dawkvah na due han, telah Anathoth kho e taminaw koevah ransahu BAWIPA ni he a dei.
Therefore thus says YHWH concerning the men of Anathoth, who seek my life, saying, "You shall not prophesy in the name of YHWH, that you not die by our hand;"
22 Hatdawkvah ransahu BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, kai ni ahnimanaw hah ka rek han. A nawsainaw heh tahloi hoi a due awh vaiteh, a capanaw hoi a canunaw hah takang dawk a due awh han.
therefore thus says YHWH of hosts, "Look, I will punish them: the young men shall die by the sword; their sons and their daughters shall die by famine;
23 Buet touh hai hlout awh mahoeh, ahnimouh reknae kum navah, Anathoth kho e taminaw lathueng vah, yawthoenae ka pha sak han, a ti.
and there shall be no remnant to them: for I will bring disaster on the men of Anathoth, even the year of their visitation."
