Jeremiah 45

1 Judah siangpahrang Jehoiakim, Josiah capa a bawinae kum pali nah, Jeremiah ni dei e lawk cauk dawk thut lahun nah, Neriah capa Baruk koe profet Jeremiah ni dei e lawk teh,

THE word that Jeremiah the prophet spake unto Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,

2 Oe! Baruk, BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni nang koe hettelah a dei,

Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch;

3 nang ni tami yawthoe e lah ka o, bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni ka rucatnae dawk lungmathoenae a thapsin, ka kâhramnae dawk ka hrip toe, thadamnae banghai awm hoeh telah na ti.

Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the Lord hath added grief to my sorrow; I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest.

4 Ahni koe hettelah na dei han, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! ram tangkuem dawk ka sak tangcoung e hah bout ka raphoe vaiteh ka ung tangcoung e bout ka phawk han.

Thus shalt thou say unto him, The Lord saith thus; Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up, even this whole land.

5 Ma hanelah hno kalen na tawng maw, tawng hanh, bangkongtetpawiteh, moithang pueng e lathueng vah thoenae ka pha sak han telah BAWIPA ni a dei. Hatei na hringnae teh na ceinae pueng dawk nang koe ka poe e phu lah ao han telah ati.

And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not: for, behold, I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith the Lord: but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest.
