< Jeremiah 39 >

1 Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah a bawinae kum 9, thapa yung hra nah Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar hoi a ransanaw ni Jerusalem a tuk awh teh a kalup awh.
It happened when Jerusalem was taken, (in the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army against Jerusalem, and besieged it;
2 Zedekiah a bawinae kum 11, thapa yung pali hnin tako nah khopui rapan peng a raphoe awh.
in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a breach was made in the city).
3 Hahoi, Jerusalem a la awh toteh, Babilon siangpahrang kahrawikungnaw a kâen awh teh longkha lungui vah Negalsharezer, Sangarnebo, Sarsekhim, Rabsaris, Negalsharezer, Rabmag tinaw hoi Babilon kahrawikung alouke pueng hoi a tahung awh.
Then all the officials of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the Middle Gate, Nergal-sar-ezer of Samgar, Nebu-sar-sekim the Rab-saris, Nergal-sar-ezer the Rab-mag, with all the rest of the officers of the king of Babylon.
4 Hahoi, Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah hoi taran ka tuk e pueng ni ahnimouh a hmu awh toteh, a yawng takhai awh. Khopui thung hoi tangmin vah siangpahrang e takha koelah kalupnae tapang kahni touh e longkha koehoi a yawng awh, ama teh ayawn koe lah a cei.
It happened that, when Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, then they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the king's garden, through the gate between the two walls; and he went out toward the Arabah.
5 Hatei, Khaldean ransanaw ni ama hah a pâlei awh teh, Jeriko tanghling dawk rek a pha awh, a man awh hnukkhu Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar koe Hamath ram e Riblah kho dawk a ceikhai awh teh, ahni ni lawk a ceng.
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho: and when they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gave judgment on him.
6 Babilon siangpahrang ni Riblah kho dawk a mithmu roeroe vah Zedekiah capanaw hah a thei pouh, Babilon siangpahrang ni Judah tami kacuenaw hai a thei awh.
Then the king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah in Riblah before his eyes: also the king of Babylon killed all the nobles of Judah.
7 Hothloilah, Zedekiah e mitmu a cawngkhawi pouh, sumbawtarui hoi a katek awh teh, Babilon lah a ceikhai awh.
Moreover he put out Zedekiah's eyes, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
8 Khaldean taminaw ni siangpahrang im hoi alouke imnaw pueng hmai a sawi awh teh Jerusalem hai a raphoe awh.
The Chaldeans burned the king's house, and the houses of the people, with fire, and broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
9 Ramvengnaw kahrawikung Nebuzaradan ni khopui thung kaawm e taminaw hoi ahnimouh koe kamkhueng e taminaw hoi kacawirae taminaw pueng Babilon vah san lah a ceikhai awh.
Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the residue of the people who remained in the city, the deserters also who fell away to him, and the residue of the people who remained.
10 Hahoi, ramvengnaw kahrawikung Nebuzaradan ni Judah ram e tami ka roedeng banghai ka tawn hoeh naw a ceikhai teh misur takha hoi lawnaw hah a poe.
But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, who had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.
11 Hahoi, Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar ni, Jeremiah kong dawk ramvengnaw kahrawikung Nebuzaradan koevah,
Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon commanded Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard concerning Jeremiah, saying,
12 ahni hah cetkhai nateh kahawicalah khenyawn, khoeroe rektap hanh, nang koe ka dei e patetlah sak, telah kâ a poe.
"Take him, and look well to him, and do him no harm; but do to him even as he shall tell you."
13 Hahoi, ramvengnaw kahrawikung Nebuzaradan ni Nebushasban hoi Rabsaris, Nergalsharezer, Rabmag tinaw hoi Babilon siangpahrang ransabawinaw lawk a thui teh,
So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard sent, and Nebushazban the Rab-saris, Nergal-sar-ezer the Rab-mag and all the chief officers of the king of Babylon;
14 ahnimouh ni Jeremiah teh ramvengnaw e rapan thung hoi a kaw awh teh, Saphan capa Ahikam capa Gedaliah koevah, a im dawk luen hanelah lawk a thui teh tamimaya koe kho a sak.
they sent, and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guard, and committed him to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should carry him home: so he lived among the people.
15 Hahoi, ramvengnaw e rapan thung pâkhi lah ao navah, BAWIPA e lawk teh Jeremiah koe a pha.
Now the word of YHWH came to Jeremiah, while he was shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
16 Ethiopia tami Ebedmelek koevah, ransahu BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! ahawi nahane laipalah hete khopui rawk phai nahanelah ka lawk ka pha sak vaiteh hot hnin roeroe vah na hmalah ka kuep sak han.
"Go, and speak to Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, 'Thus says YHWH of hosts, the God of Israel: "Look, I will bring my words on this city for disaster, and not for prosperity; and they shall be fulfilled before you in that day.
17 Hot hnin vah nang teh rungngang e lah na o han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei. Na taki e taminaw koe poe e lah na awm mahoeh.
But I will deliver you in that day, says YHWH; and you shall not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid.
18 Bangkongtetpawiteh, na rungngang roeroe vaiteh, tahloi hoi na dout mahoeh. Hatei. nang hringnae teh na hlout sak han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai na kâuep dawkvah, telah BAWIPA ni a dei, telah dei pouh telah ati.
For I will surely save you, and you shall not fall by the sword, but your life will be given to you as a reward; because you have put your trust in me,"' says YHWH."
