The word of YHWH came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations.

Of Egypt: concerning the army of Pharaoh Necoh king of Egypt, which was by the river Perath in Carchemish, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah.
3 Saiphei kathoung hoi kalennaw kârakueng awh nateh tarantuknae koe pâtam awh.
"Prepare the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle.
4 Marangnaw rakueng awh nateh, marangransanaw kâcui awh, rahum lukhung kâmuk awh nateh kacaklah kangdout awh, na tahroenaw kata awh nateh sumangki hah kho awh.
Harness the horses, and get up, you horsemen, and stand forth with your helmets; furbish the spears, put on the coats of mail.
5 Bangkongmaw hnuklah a ban awh teh a yawng awh. Ahnimae athakaawme taminaw teh rek a dei awh toe, a yawng awh teh hnuklah kangvawi awh hoeh, avoivang lahoi takithonae teh a tho telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
Why have I seen it? They are dismayed and are turned backward; and their mighty ones are beaten down, and have fled in haste, and do not look back: terror is on every side," says YHWH.
6 Ahue karangnaw yawng thai awh hoeh, athakaawme tami hlout kalawn hoeh, Euphrates palang atunglah a hmang awh teh he a rawp awh.
"Do not let the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape; in the north by the river Perath have they stumbled and fallen.
7 Apimaw tuikalen patetlah ka tho niteh, tuicapa patetlah ka thaw e heh apimaw.
Who is this who rises up like the Nile, whose waters toss themselves like the rivers?
8 Izip teh tuikalen patetlah a luen teh tuicapa ka thaw e patetlah ka len vaiteh talai pueng koung ka ramuk han, khopui hoi karingkungnaw koung ka raphoe han telah ati.
Egypt rises up like the Nile, and his waters toss themselves like the rivers: and he says, 'I will rise up, I will cover the earth; I will destroy cities and its inhabitants.'
9 Oe marangnaw kamthoup awh haw, Oe ranglengnaw puenghoi kâroe awh haw, tami athakaawme taminaw hmalah hoe nawt awh, Ethiopia tami hoi Put tami saiphei kasinnaw licung ka ka thoum e Ludimnaw.
Go up, you horses; and rage, you chariots; and let the mighty men go forth: Cush and Put, who handle the shield; and the Ludim, who handle and bend the bow.
10 Bangkongtetpawiteh, hatnae hnin teh ransahu BAWIPA ni moipathungnae hnin, a tarannaw e lathueng moipathungnae hnin doeh. Tahloi ni he a ca vaiteh, a due awh han. Ahnimae thipaling teh ka boum lah a nei awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni atunglae ram Euphrates palang teng vah thuengnae hah a sak.
For that day is of the Lord, YHWH of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour and be satiate, and shall drink its fill of their blood; for the Lord, YHWH of hosts, has a sacrifice in the north country by the river Perath.
11 Oe Izip canu tanglakacuem, Gilead lah luen nateh, kâhluk e tâsi hah lat haw. Tâsi moikapap na la teh na hno ei, nang hanlah hawinae banghai awm hoeh.
Go up into Gilead, and take balm, virgin daughter of Egypt: in vain do you use many medicines; there is no healing for you.
12 Miphunnaw ni yeiraiponae a thai awh teh na khuikanae ni ram dawk a kawisak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, athakaawme tami hoi athakaawme tami a kâtuk roi teh hmuen touh koe a rawp roi.
The nations have heard of your shame, and the earth is full of your cry; for the mighty man has stumbled against the mighty, they are fallen both of them together."
13 Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar a tho teh, Izip ram a tuk hane kong BAWIPA ni profet Jeremiah koe a dei e teh,
The word that YHWH spoke to Jeremiah the prophet, how that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon should come and strike the land of Egypt.
14 Izip ram dawk dei awh, Migdol vah pathang awh, Noph hoi Tahpanhes dawk pâpho awh nateh, kacaklah kangdue laihoi kâhruetcuet awh. Bangtelah tetpawiteh, nang petkâkalup lah kaawmnaw tahloi ni a ca toe telah dei pouh awh.
"Declare in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Memphis and in Tahpanhes: say, 'Stand forth, and prepare; for the sword has devoured around you.'
15 Bangkongmaw a thakasai e tami hah tâkhawng lah ao. BAWIPA ni a tanawt dawkvah kangdout thai awh hoeh.
Why are your strong ones swept away? They did not stand, because YHWH pushed them.
16 Tami moikapap a rawp sak. A kâcakhueng awh teh hmeng a rawp awh. Repcoungroenae tahloi hah yawngtakhai laihoi, tho awh ban awh lei sei, tâconae ram, mae taminaw koevah, telah ati awh.
He made many to stumble, yes, they fell one on another: and they said, 'Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our birth, from the oppressing sword.'
17 Izip ram e Faro teh a kamthang dueng doeh a len. Hatei, atueng a baw toe, telah a hram awh.
They cried there, 'Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he has let the appointed time pass by.'"
18 Kai ka hring e patetlah siangpahrang ransahu BAWIPA ni a dei. Monnaw thung hoi Tabor mon hoi tuipui teng e Karmel mon patetlah a tho roeroe han.
"As I live," says the King, "whose name is YHWH of hosts, surely like Tabor among the mountains, and like Carmel by the sea, so shall he come.
19 Oe nang canu! Izip ram dawk kho ka sak e, santoung hanlah kârakueng. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Noph hah ka raphoe vaiteh, kho ka sak e ao hoeh ditouh kingdi han.
You daughter who dwells in Egypt, furnish yourself to go into captivity; for Memphis shall become a desolation, and shall be burnt up, without inhabitant.
20 Izip teh a mei kahawipoung e maitola doeh. Hatei, atunglae ram dawk hoi karaphoekung a tho toe.
Egypt is a very beautiful heifer; but a horsefly from the north is coming against her.
21 A coun e ransanaw hah kaboumlah paca e maito patetlah doeh ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh ni hnuklah kamlang takhai teh kâhat laipalah a yawng awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimae lathueng vah rawkphainae a tho teh reknae tueng lah ao.
Also her hired men in the midst of her are like calves of the stall; for they also are turned back, they are fled away together, they did not stand: for the day of their calamity has come on them, the time of their visitation.
22 Thing katâtuengnaw patetlah cakâ sin hoi tamihupui hoi a tho awh toteh, ahnie lawk teh tahrun phi e lawk patetlah ao han.
The sound of it shall go like the serpent; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as wood cutters.
23 Katin thai hoeh e ratu hah koung a tâtueng awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, samtong hlak a pap awh teh, touk thai lah awm hoeh.
They shall cut down her forest, says YHWH, though it can't be searched; because they are more than the locusts, and are innumerable.
24 Izip canu teh yeiraipo laihoi atunglae ramnaw e kut dawk poe lah ao han.
The daughter of Egypt shall be disappointed; she shall be delivered into the hand of the people of the north."
25 Ransahu BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni hettelah a dei. Khenhaw! No e Ammon hoi Faro, hahoi Izip hoi a cathutnaw hoi a siangpahrangnaw, Faro ama roeroe hoi ama ka kâuep e naw hah ka rek han.
"YHWH of hosts, the God of Israel, says: 'Look, I will punish Amon of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with her gods, and her kings; even Pharaoh, and those who trust in him:
26 Ahnimouh ka thet hane Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar hoi a thaw katawknaw e kut dawk ka poe han. Hatnae tueng dawk yampa e hnin patetlah panue e lah ao han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
and I will deliver them into the hand of those who seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants; and afterwards it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old,' says YHWH.
27 Hatei, Oe Jakop, kaie thaw katawkkung, taket hanh. Oe Isarel na lungpuen hanh naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, khenhaw! lamhlanae koehoi na rungngang han. Na catounnaw hai santoungnae ram thung hoi ka rungngang han. Jakop teh a ban vaiteh, karoumcalah ao han, apinihai takinae poe mahoeh.
'But do not be afraid, Jacob my servant, neither be dismayed, Israel: for, look, I will save you from afar, and your descendants from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.
28 Oe Jakop, ka san, taket hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai kama ni na okhai telah BAWIPA ni a dei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, na pâleinae ramnaw pueng heh ka baw sak han. Hatei nang teh a pout totouh na pout sak mahoeh. Kalanlah na toun han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, rek laipalah na hlout sak mahoeh.
Do not be afraid, O Jacob my servant,' says YHWH; 'for I am with you: for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have driven you; but I will not make a full end of you, but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished.'"
