< 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 message that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah, when he wrote 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,
“Yahweh, the God of Israel, says to you, 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.
‘You said, “Woe is me now! For Yahweh has added sorrow to my pain! I am weary with my groaning, 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.
“You shall tell him, Yahweh says: ‘Behold, that which I have built, I will break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up; and this in the 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.
Do you seek great things for yourself? Don’t seek them; for, behold, I will bring evil on all flesh,’ says Yahweh, ‘but I will let you escape with your life wherever you go.’”
