Jeremiah 27
1 Judah siangpahrang Josiah capa Zedekiah abawinae kamtawng pasuek nah, BAWIPA koehoi hete lawk teh a pha.
In the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, came this word to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
2 BAWIPA ni kai koe hettelah a dei. Kahnam hoi a rui hah na lahuen dawk bang.
"Thus says the LORD to me: Make bonds and bars, and put them on your neck;
3 Edom siangpahrang, Moab siangpahrang, Taire siangpahrang, Zidon siangpahrang naw koevah, Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah koe patounenaw Jerusalem vah ka tho e kut dawk patawn.
and send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the people of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon, by the hand of the messengers who come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah;
4 A bawipanaw koe dei hanelah kâ a poe, hettelah Isarel Cathut, ransahu BAWIPA ni a dei. Hettelah na bawipanaw koe na dei pouh han.
and give them a command to their masters, saying, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, You shall tell your masters:
5 Kalenpounge ka hnotithainae hoi kut ka dâw teh, talai hoi tami hoi talai van e saringnaw phunkuep hah ka sak, poe hanlah ka pouk e naw koe kâ poe.
"I have made the earth, the men and the animals that are on the surface of the earth, by my great power and by my outstretched arm; and I give it to whom it seems right to me.
6 Atu hai thoseh, ka thaw ka tawk e Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar e kut dawk hete ramnaw pueng teh kâ poe toe. Kahrawngum e saringnaw hai ahnie thaw tawk hanelah kâ poe toe.
Now have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant; and the animals of the field also have I given him to serve him.
7 Ahnie uknae rawknae koe pha hoehnahlan teh, miphunnaw pueng ni ama hoi a capanaw hoi a mincanaw e thaw a tawk pouh awh han. Hathnukkhu miphun kapap, kalenpounge siangpahrangnaw ni ahni teh san lah a coung sak awh han.
All the nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son's son, until the time of his own land come: and then many nations and great kings shall make him their bondservant.
8 Hahoi, Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar e kahnam ka phawt ngai hoeh e, a thaw ka tawk ngai hoeh e miphun hoi uknaeram teh tahloi hoi thoseh, takangnae hoi thoseh, lacik hoi thoseh ahnie kut dawk hoi raphoe hoe roukrak, ahnimanaw teh ka rek han.
It shall happen, that the nation and the kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I punish, says the LORD, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.
9 Hatdawkvah, namamae profet, khueyue, mangkamangnaw, kutkhetkathoum, taânkasinaw, Babilon siangpahrang e thaw na tawk awh mahoeh telah ka dei e naw hah tang pouh hanh awh.
But as for you, do not listen to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor to your dreams, nor to your soothsayers, nor to your sorcerers, who speak to you, saying, 'You shall not serve the king of Babylon':
10 Na ram dawk hoi ahlapoungnae koe na ceikhai thai nahanelah nangmouh koe laithoe kapâphonaw doeh, ka pâlei vaiteh he a kahma awh han.
for they prophesy a lie to you, to remove you far from your land, and that I should drive you out, and you should perish.
11 Hatei, Babilon siangpahrang e kahnam ka phawt ni teh a thaw tawk hane ka ngai e tami teh amamae ram dawk bout ka o sak han, laikawk kanawk awh vaiteh haw vah kho pou a sak awh han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
But the nation that shall bring their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him, that nation will I let remain in their own land, says the LORD; and they shall till it, and dwell in it."'"
12 Judah Siangpahrang Zedekiah koehoi hete lawknaw pueng ka dei pouh. Babilon siangpahrang e kahnam phawt awh nateh ama hoi a taminaw e thaw tawk nateh hring awh.
I spoke to Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying, "Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live.
13 Babilon siangpahrang e thaw ka tawk ngai hoeh e miphunnaw kong dawk BAWIPA ni a dei tangcoung e hah bangkongmaw tahloi hoi lacik dawk nama hoi na taminaw hah a due awh han vaw.
Why will you die, you and your people, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as the LORD has spoken concerning the nation that will not serve the king of Babylon?
14 Hatdawkvah nangmouh koe, Babilon siangpahrang e thaw tawk pouh hanh awh telah, ka dei e profetnaw e lawk hah yuem hanh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh koe laithoe doeh a pâpho awh.
Do not listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you, saying, 'You shall not serve the king of Babylon'; for they prophesy a lie to you.
15 Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh kai ni ka patoun hoeh, hatei, nangmouh hoi nangmouh koe lawk ka pâpho e profet hah ka pâlei vaiteh na kahma awh nahan kaie min noe lahoi laithoe a pâpho awh, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
'For I have not sent them,' says the LORD, 'but they prophesy falsely in my name; that I may drive you out, and that you may perish, you, and the prophets who prophesy to you.'"
16 Vaihmanaw hoi tamihunaw pueng koehai, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, nangmouh koevah, khenhaw Babilon hoi BAWIPA im dawk e hnopainaw teh bout a thokhai awh han, telah a dei e profetnaw e lawk hah yuem awh hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh koe laithoe kadeinaw doeh.
Also I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying, "Thus says the LORD: 'Do not listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, Look, the vessels of the LORD's house shall now shortly be brought again from Babylon; for they prophesy a lie to you.
17 Ahnimae lawknaw hah tarawi pouh hanh awh, Babilon Siangpahrang e thaw tawk awh nateh, hring awh, bangkongmaw he e khopui teh a rawk han vaw.
Do not listen to them; serve the king of Babylon, and live: why should this city become a desolation?'
18 Hatei profet lah ao awh teh BAWIPA im hoi Judah siangpahrang im hoi Jerusalem e hnopai cei takhai e hah Babilon vah phakhai hoeh nahanlah ransahu BAWIPA koe pacei awh naseh.
But if they are prophets and if the word of the LORD is with them, let them now make intercession with the LORD of hosts, that the vessels which are left in the house of the LORD, and in the house of the king of Judah and at Jerusalem may not go to Babylon.
19 Bangkongtetpawiteh, ransahu BAWIPA ni khom karasang e hoi rahum tuium hoi pâhungnae hete khoi dawk kaawm rae hnopainaw hoi,
For thus says the LORD of hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the rest of the vessels that are left in this city,
20 Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar ni Judah siangpahrang Jehoiakim hoi Judah hoi Jerusalem e kacuenaw pueng Jerusalem hoi Babilon lah san lah a ceikhai teh kaawm rae kong teh hettelah a dei.
which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take, when he carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon, and all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem;
21 Ransahu BAWIPA, Isarel Cathut ni, BAWIPA e im hoi Judah siangpahrang e im hoi Jerusalem e hnopai kaawm rae kong dawk hettelah a dei.
yes, thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning the vessels that are left in the house of the LORD, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem:
22 Babilon lah ceikhai lah kaawm hane, ahnimouh ka hloe hoehnahlan teh, haw vah o awh han. Hahoi bout ka la vaiteh hete hmuen koe bout ka ta han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
'They shall be carried to Babylon, and there shall they be, until the day that I visit them,' says the LORD; 'then will I bring them up, and restore them to this place.'"
