1 Babilon hoi Khaldean taminaw e ram taranlahoi profet Jeremiah e pahni hno lahoi BAWIPA ni a dei e lawk teh,
The word that Jehovah hath spoken concerning Babylon, concerning the land of the Chaldeans, by the hand of Jeremiah the prophet:
2 Miphunnaw koe dei pouh nateh pâpho haw. Lukkarei vo awh na teh, pathang awh. Hrawk awh hanh. Babilon la e lah ao vaiteh, Bel teh yeiraipo lah ao han. Merodak e cathut teh a kâkhoe toe. Babilon e meikaphawknaw teh yeiraipo awh teh, reppasei lah a kâbawng toe.
'Declare ye among nations, and sound, And lift up an ensign, sound, do not hide, Say ye: Captured hath been Babylon, Put to shame hath been Bel, Broken hath been Merodach, Put to shame have been her grievous things, Broken have been her idols.
3 Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahni taranlahoi miphun buet touh atunglah hoi a tho teh, apihai kho sak hoeh nahanlah a ram hah kingdi, tami hoi moithangnaw hai yawng awh vaiteh awm awh mahoeh toe.
For come up against her hath a nation from the north, It maketh her land become a desolation, And there is not an inhabitant in it. From man even unto beast, They have moved, they have gone.
4 Hatnae hnin hoi tueng nah teh, Isarel catounnaw hah tho awh vaiteh, amamouh hoi Judah catounnaw hoi khuika laihoi tho awh vaiteh, BAWIPA Cathut a tawng awh han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
In those days, and at that time, An affirmation of Jehovah, Come in do sons of Israel, They and sons of Judah together, Going on and weeping they go, And Jehovah their God they seek.
5 Zion lah ceinae lamthung hah a pacei awh han, tho awh, yungyoe lawkkam pahnim hoeh nahanlah BAWIPA hnai awh telah ati awh han.
[To] Zion they ask the way, Thitherward [are] their faces: Come in, and we are joined unto Jehovah, A covenant age-during — not forgotten.
6 Ka taminaw teh tu kahmat e lah o awh. Tukhoumnaw ni mon dawk lam a payonsak toe. Ahnimanaw teh mon buet touh hoi buet touh dawk lam a kahma awh teh roumnae hmuen a pahnim awh toe.
A perishing flock hath My people been, Their shepherds have caused them to err, [To] the mountains causing them to go back, From mountain unto hill they have gone, They have forgotten their crouching-place.
7 Kahmawtnaw pueng ni a kei awh teh, a tarannaw ni maimouh payon hoeh, BAWIPA e lannae kânguenae, a mintoenaw ni ngaihawinae BAWIPA lathueng roeroe vah yonnae a sak awh dawk doeh ati awh.
All finding them have devoured them, And their adversaries have said: We are not guilty, Because that they sinned against Jehovah, The habitation of righteousness, And the hope of their fathers — Jehovah.
8 Babilon hoi kampuen awh, Khaldean ram dawk hoi tâcawt awh, hmaehu e rahak vah hmaetan patetlah awm awh.
Move ye from the midst of Babylon, And from the land of the Chaldeans go out. And be as he-goats before a flock.

For, lo, I am stirring up, And am causing to come up against Babylon, An assembly of great nations from a land of the north, And they have set in array against her, From thence she is captured, Its arrow — as a skilful hero — returneth not empty,
10 Khaldean teh raphoe e lah awm vaiteh, haw vah ka raphoekungnaw kaboumlah ao awh han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
And Chaldea hath been for a spoil, All her spoilers are satisfied, An affirmation of Jehovah.

Because thou rejoicest, because thou exultest, O spoilers of Mine inheritance, Because thou increasest as a heifer [at] the tender grass, And dost cry aloud as bulls,
12 na manu yeiraipo vaiteh, na kakhekung yeiraipo han. Khenhaw! miphunnaw thung dawk hoi ka rahnoumpoung e, ka ke ram, ramke, thingyeiyawn lah na o han.
Ashamed hath been your mother greatly, Confounded hath she been that bare you, Lo, the hindermost of nations [is] a wilderness, A dry land, and a desert.

Because of the wrath of Jehovah it is not inhabited, And it hath been a desolation — all of it. Every passer by at Babylon is astonished, And doth hiss because of all her plagues.

Set yourselves in array against Babylon round about, All ye treading a bow, Shoot at her, have no pity on the arrow, For against Jehovah she hath sinned.

Shout against her round about, She hath given forth her hand, Fallen have her foundations, Thrown down have been her walls, For it [is] the vengeance of Jehovah, Be avenged of her, as she did — do ye to her.
16 Babilon vah cati kapatuekung hoi cangkaanaw hoi cangkatinnaw hah tâkhawng awh, repcoungroenaw e tahloi taki dawk mae taminaw koe pâtam awh vaiteh, mae ram lah a yawng awh han.
Cut off the sower from Babylon, And him handling the sickle in the time of harvest, Because of the oppressing sword, Each unto his people — they turn, And each to his land — they flee.

A scattered sheep is Israel, lions have driven away, At first, devour him did the king of Asshur, And now, at last, broken his bone Hath Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.

Therefore thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo, I am seeing after the king of Babylon, And after his land, As I have seen after the king of Asshur;

And I have brought back Israel unto his habitation, And he hath fed on Carmel, and on Bashan. And in mount Ephraim, and on Gilead is his soul satisfied.
