< Jeremiah 26 >

1 Judah siangpahrang Josiah capa Jehoiakim a bawinae kamtawng nah hete lawk BAWIPA koe hoi a tho.
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came from the LORD:
2 BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, BAWIPA e im thongma dawk kangdout haw, Judah khopuinaw pueng ni Cathut bawk hanlah BAWIPA e im dawk kathonaw pueng koe dei hanlah na poe e lawknaw hah buet touh hai pâhma laipalah dei pouh.
“The LORD says: ‘Stand in the court of the LORD’s house, and speak to all the cities of Judah which come to worship in the LORD’s house, all the words that I command you to speak to them. Don’t omit a word.
3 Yonnae a sak awh dawkvah ahnimae lathueng thoenae sak hanlah ka kâcai e let ka kâhno thai nahanlah tamipueng ni a yonae hah kamlang takhai teh, thai hanlah a ngai thai yawkaw han doeh.
It may be they will listen, and every man turn from his evil way, that I may relent from the evil which I intend to do to them because of the evil of their doings.’”
4 Nang ni ahnimouh koevah, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, kaie lawk na thai ngai awh hoeh teh, nangmae hmalah ka ta e kâlawknaw tarawi ngai hoeh dawkvah,
You shall tell them, “The LORD says: ‘If you will not listen to me, to walk in my law which I have set before you,
5 amom ka thaw teh ka patoun e ka thaw ka tawk e profetnaw e lawk hah banglahai noutna awh hoeh pawiteh,
to listen to the words of my servants the prophets whom I send to you, even rising up early and sending them—but you have not listened—
6 hete im heh Shiloh patetlah ka o sak vaiteh talai van e miphunnaw pueng ni thoebo e khopui lah ka coung sak han, telah na ti han, telah ati.
then I will make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth.’”
7 Vaihmanaw hoi profetnaw hoi tamimaya ni BAWIPA im dawk Jeremiah ni a dei e lawk hah a thai awh.
The priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the LORD’s house.
8 Hahoi hettelah o, tamimaya koe dei hanelah BAWIPA ni a poe e lawknaw pueng he a dei hnukkhu vaihma, profet hoi tamimaya ni, a man awh teh na due roeroe han!
When Jeremiah had finished speaking all that the LORD had commanded him to speak to all the people, the priests and the prophets and all the people seized him, saying, “You shall surely die!
9 Bangkongmaw BAWIPA e min lahoi, hete im heh Shiloh patetlah ao vaiteh hete khopui dawk tami awm laipalah kingdi han telah na dei, telah ati awh. Hattoteh BAWIPA e im dawk taminaw pueng ni Jeremiah teh a cusin awh.
Why have you prophesied in the LORD’s name, saying, ‘This house will be like Shiloh, and this city will be desolate, without inhabitant’?” All the people were crowded around Jeremiah in the LORD’s house.
10 Judah kahrawikungnaw ni hete kong a thai awh toteh siangpahrang im dawk e BAWIPA e im longkha katha koe a tahung awh.
When the princes of Judah heard these things, they came up from the king’s house to the LORD’s house; and they sat in the entry of the new gate of the LORD’s house.
11 Vaihma hoi profetnaw ni kahrawikungnaw hoi tamihu koe, hete tami he due hanlah a kamcu. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hnâ hoi na thai e patetlah hete khopui taranlahoi a pâpho toe, telah ati awh.
Then the priests and the prophets spoke to the princes and to all the people, saying, “This man is worthy of death, for he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your ears.”
12 Kahrawikungnaw pueng hoi taminaw pueng koe Jeremiah ni, lawknaw pueng na thai awh e patetlah, hete im hoi khopui raphoe hane kong dei hanelah BAWIPA ni na patoun.
Then Jeremiah spoke to all the princes and to all the people, saying, “The LORD sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that you have heard.
13 Hatdawkvah, atu na hringnuen hoi na khosaknae hah pathoup awh nateh BAWIPA Cathut e lawk hah yuem awh, telah pawiteh, BAWIPA ni nangmae lathueng hawihoehnae pha sak hanlah a pâpho tangcoung e hah bout a kâhno han.
Now therefore amend your ways and your doings, and obey the LORD your God’s voice; then the LORD will relent from the evil that he has pronounced against you.
14 Kai hah teh, atu nangmae kut dawk ka o, a lan, ahawi na ti awh e patetlah, kaie lathueng vah sak awh.
But as for me, behold, I am in your hand. Do with me what is good and right in your eyes.
15 Kai na thet payon awh pawiteh namamouh hoi hete khopui hoi athung kaawmnaw pueng koe yonnae kaawm hoeh e thipaling na pha sak awh tie hah panuek awh. Atangcalah hete lawknaw heh na hnâthai awhnae koe dei hanelah BAWIPA ni na patoun e doeh, telah ati.
Only know for certain that if you put me to death, you will bring innocent blood on yourselves, on this city, and on its inhabitants; for in truth the LORD has sent me to you to speak all these words in your ears.”
16 Hat toteh, kahrawikungnaw hoi tamimaya ni, vaihma hoi profetnaw koevah, hete tami heh due hanelah kamcu hoeh, bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA maimae Cathut min lahoi maimouh koe lawk a dei toe, telah ati awh.
Then the princes and all the people said to the priests and to the prophets: “This man is not worthy of death; for he has spoken to us in the name of the LORD our God.”
17 Hote ram dawk e kacuenaw a kangdue awh teh, tamimaya koevah,
Then certain of the elders of the land rose up, and spoke to all the assembly of the people, saying,
18 Mikah Morashtite tami ni Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah a bawi navah lawk a pâpho, hahoi Judah taminaw pueng koe, ransahu BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Zion teh laikawk patetlah thawn e lah ao han, Jerusalem teh songnawng lah o vaiteh, bawkim mon teh ratu hmuenrasang patetlah ao han, telah ati.
“Micah the Morashtite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and he spoke to all the people of Judah, saying, ‘The LORD of Armies says: “‘Zion will be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem will become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.’
19 Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah hoi Judah taminaw pueng ni ahni hah a thei awh maw. BAWIPA taki lahoi BAWIPA ni ngaikhainae doeh a pacei awh teh, BAWIPA ni ahnimae lathueng hawihoehnae pha sak hane hah bout a kâhno nahoehmaw. Hatei, maimouh teh kalenpounge hawihoehnae hah mamouh taranlahoi sak awh.
Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death? Didn’t he fear the LORD, and entreat the favor of the LORD, and the LORD relented of the disaster which he had pronounced against them? We would commit great evil against our own souls that way!”
20 Hahoi alouke tami BAWIPA e min lahoi lawk ka dei e Kiriath tami Shemaiah capa Uriah hah bout ao. Jeremiah ni a dei e naw patetlah hete ram hoi khopui raphoe hane kong hah a dei.
There was also a man who prophesied in the LORD’s name, Uriah the son of Shemaiah of Kiriath Jearim; and he prophesied against this city and against this land according to all the words of Jeremiah.
21 Siangpahrang Jehoiakim hoi athakaawme taminaw hoi kahrawikungnaw pueng ni a thai awh toteh, siangpahrang ni thei hanelah a kâcai. Hatei, Uriah ni a thai toteh a taki teh Izip ram lah a yawng.
When Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men and all the princes heard his words, the king sought to put him to death; but when Uriah heard it, he was afraid, and fled, and went into Egypt.
22 Hahoi siangpahrang Jehoiakim ni Izip ram lah Akbor capa Elnathan hoi alouke taminaw hoi a patoun.
Then Jehoiakim the king sent Elnathan the son of Achbor and certain men with him into Egypt.
23 Izip ram dawk hoi Uriah a tâcokhai awh teh siangpahrang Jehoiakim koevah a thokhai awh, ama ni tahloi hoi a thei teh a ro hah lam teng mathoenaw e phuen dawk a tâkhawng, telah ati awh.
They fetched Uriah out of Egypt and brought him to Jehoiakim the king, who killed him with the sword and cast his dead body into the graves of the common people.
24 Hatei, Shaphan capa Ahikam ni Jeremiah a kampangkhai dawkvah, thei hanelah tamimaya e kut dawk poe hoeh.
But the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, so that they didn’t give him into the hand of the people to put him to death.
