< Jeremiah 22 >

1 The LORD said, “Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak this word there:
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Nangma Judah lengpa in-ah chesuh inlang, hiche thuhi gaseipeh tan,’’
2 ‘Hear the LORD’s word, king of Judah, who sits on David’s throne—you, your servants, and your people who enter in by these gates.
Juda lengpa, David laltouna toupa, ngaiyin, chule namite leh nasohten jong ngaicheh’uhen.
3 The LORD says: “Execute justice and righteousness, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor. Do no wrong. Do no violence to the foreigner, the fatherless, or the widow. Do not shed innocent blood in this place.
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, Thu adih in tanpih uvin chule thil adih in bol uvin. Athil kichompih ho chu panhu’uvin lang, amaho chu akibol ganthei nauva kon in huhdoh uvin. Chule nagitlounau chu dalhauvin. Gamchom mileh kholjin miho bolse hih un, chule chagate leh meithai ho chu pumhat in boldauvin. Chule themmona bei mite chunga thisan sodauvin.
4 For if you do this thing indeed, then kings sitting on David’s throne will enter in by the gates of this house, riding in chariots and on horses—they, their servants, and their people.
Nanghon kathu nangaiyuleh, hiche mun’a hi, David laltouna-a, David son le pah ho toujing ding ahi. Chutia chu, lengho leh alhachac ho chule asohte, kangtalai leh sakol a tou uva, leng inpi kelkot a chu, lutle potle abol diu ahi.
5 But if you will not hear these words, I swear by myself,” says the LORD, “that this house will become a desolation.”’”
Amavang, nanghon kathusei hi donlouva nakoi vang ule, keima tah kamin’a kakitepna kasem ahi; Hiche mun hi ahomkeo leh keohel’a kalha ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
6 For the LORD says concerning the house of the king of Judah: “You are Gilead to me, the head of Lebanon. Yet surely I will make you a wilderness, cities which are not inhabited.
Pakaiyin, Judah leng inpi thua hitin aseiye, “Keiding in nangma hi, Gilead lhang leh Lebanon gam hoitah banga chule mihem chennalou gam kasosah ding nahi.
7 I will prepare destroyers against you, everyone with his weapons, and they will cut down your choice cedars, and cast them into the fire.
Keiman nangma sumang ding mi kakou ding, amahon ama cheh manchah ahin kichoi uva, nasuh gamdiu ahi. Amahon, Cedar thing hoilai ho aphuh uva, meiya ahalvam diu ahi.
8 “Many nations will pass by this city, and they will each ask his neighbor, ‘Why has the LORD done this to this great city?’
Gam chom chom’a kon hung kholjin namtin vaipin, hiche khopi hinjotpa jousen, ‘Ibol’a Pakaiyin hiche khopi lentah hi ahiti suhmang jeng hitam? tia amaho leh amaho kihoudiu ahi.
9 Then they will answer, ‘Because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD their God, worshiped other gods, and served them.’”
Chutengle, “Amahon Pakai a Pathen’u toh akitepnau asuhkeh jeh uva, kisumang ahiuve,’ ti ahetdoh diu ahi.
10 Do not weep for the dead. Do not bemoan him; but weep bitterly for him who goes away, for he will return no more, and not see his native country.
Lengpa din kadauvin, lunghempi dauvin, ama chu athi ahitai. Amavang, sohchanga kikaimangpa chu kapiuvin lang, apul douvun. Ajeh chu, aman agamsung ahung mukit louhel ding ahitai.
11 For the LORD says touching Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned instead of Josiah his father, and who went out of this place: “He will not return there any more.
Hiche thuhi, apa Josiah khel’a lengchang Jehoahaz chungthu asei ahi. ama chu gal-hinga kikaimang ahin, agam a hung kilekit louding ahi.
12 But he will die in the place where they have led him captive. He will see this land no more.”
Ama chu migam’a thiden ding, agamsung anungmu louhel ding ahi.
13 “Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness, and his rooms by injustice; who uses his neighbor’s service without wages, and does not give him his hire;
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ‘Ohe ada ahi, lamdih lou tah’a in kisahpa! Thudih louva inpi kehlen’a, aheng akom tohman pelouva goipa, chule pumhat a kulpi kisempa!
14 who says, ‘I will build myself a wide house and spacious rooms,’ and cuts out windows for himself, with a cedar ceiling, and painted with red.
Hichepa hin, ‘Keiman inlentah khat kisah inge, indan tampi sem ing katin chule bangkot tampi Cedar thing in sem inge. Hichu rong sen in hoitah in loi ing kate,’’ ati.
15 “Should you reign because you strive to excel in cedar? Did not your father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well with him.
amavang, Cedar thinga leng inpi nomtah leh loupitah kisahdoh jeh’a, leng vaipoa kipang ahipoi. Napa Josiah chu neh le don aning lhing set in; ama chu thudihtah ahin, ijakai adih in abol’e. Hijeh chun, Pathen phattheiboh achange.
16 He judged the cause of the poor and needy; so then it was well. Was not this to know me?” says the LORD.
Aman vaicha gentheite apanpin, dihtah in vai ahom e. chule ama din imajouse aphatouvin akhangtouve. Hiche hi hilouham, keima toh kivopjing, kitichu,’’ tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
17 But your eyes and your heart are only for your covetousness, for shedding innocent blood, for oppression, and for doing violence.”
Nang invang, namit teni leh nalungthim hi, nangma changseh ding le alamlouva phatchomna muna ding bouvin naming in; monabei nathat in, vaicha gentheite nabol gentheijin, chule hepina umlouvin vai nahom e.
18 Therefore the LORD says concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah: “They will not lament for him, saying, ‘Ah my brother!’ or, ‘Ah sister!’ They will not lament for him, saying ‘Ah lord!’ or, ‘Ah his glory!’
Hijeh chun, Josaih chapa Jehoiakim chung thuhi, Pakaiyin hitin aseiye. “Amapa hi, mihon athini le along a-oplou diu, vo sopipa vo golpa tiajong koima kaplou ding ahi. Amite jeng injong, vo Lengpa, kapu tia akapi umlou ding ahiuve.
19 He will be buried with the burial of a donkey, drawn and cast out beyond the gates of Jerusalem.”
Athi long chu, sangan thisa kivui banga, Jerusalem khopia kon’a kikaidoh’a, kelkot polam’a gakivui ding ahi.
20 “Go up to Lebanon, and cry out. Lift up your voice in Bashan, and cry from Abarim; for all your lovers have been destroyed.
Lebanon’a naloi ho din kapin, chule amaho ding chu Bashan mun’a othong leuvin gasamin. Ab’arim mun’a amaho chu gaholtan, chule amaho din kapin, amaho chu abon'un akisugamtauve.
21 I spoke to you in your prosperity, but you said, ‘I will not listen.’ This has been your way from your youth, that you did not obey my voice.
Nangma nakhantoupet in kana hil in, Ahinlah, nangman ngaiseh in naneipoi. Hitia hi, naneolaiya pat a kathusei ngailouva hung umpeh chu nahi.
22 The wind will feed all your shepherds, and your lovers will go into captivity. Surely then you will be ashamed and confounded for all your wickedness.
Tua hi, khopi huiyin napankhompi jouse asumang ding chule naloi nagol ho abon’a sohchanga kikaimang ding ahiuve. Chutahle nagitlouna ho jal’a, nangma najah chading chule nakisuh lungdong ding ahi.
23 Inhabitant of Lebanon, who makes your nest in the cedars, how greatly to be pitied you will be when pangs come on you, the pain as of a woman in travail!
Lebanon gam Cedar thinga kisa leng inpi hoitah sung’a busah chu anom e. Hijongle, numei naosonat tobanga nathoh gimmna ding hesoh gentheina nachunga hung lhung ding ahi.
24 “As I live,” says the LORD, “though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet on my right hand, I would still pluck you from there.
Pakaiyin aseiye, ‘Keima kahing jinge. Juda lengpa Jehoiakim chapa Jehoiachin, keiman nagma kadalhah ding nahi. Keidinga nangma hi kajitlam’a kibut khutjem nahivangin, kasutlhah ding nahi.
25 I would give you into the hand of those who seek your life, and into the hand of them of whom you are afraid, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
Nanghi, thadinga nahol namelmate khut’a, chule nakichat mama jeng Nebuchadnezzar leh asepaite khut’a kapehdoh nahitai.
26 I will cast you out with your mother who bore you into another country, where you were not born; and there you will die.
Nang le nanu jong hiche gamsung’a kon’a kanodoh ding, chule nangma hiche gamsunga nathi lou ding, migam danga nathiden ding ahi.
27 But to the land to which their soul longs to return, there they will not return.”
Chule nagam’a nahung kilekit tah louding ahi.
28 Is this man Coniah a despised broken vessel? Is he a vessel in which no one delights? Why are they cast out, he and his offspring, and cast into a land which they do not know?
Ibol’a Jehoiachin kitipa hi, belkehsa panna neilou banga um hitam? Ibol’a ama leh achate jouse mi gamdanga soh’a kinomang u hitam?
29 O earth, earth, earth, hear the LORD’s word!
Vo leiset, vo gam leiset, Pakai thusei hi ngaiyun!
30 The LORD says, “Record this man as childless, a man who will not prosper in his days; for no more will a man of his offspring prosper, sitting on David’s throne and ruling in Judah.”
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, Jehoiachin kitipa hi, son leh pah neilou, ahinkho sunga ima boldohlou mipa ahi, tin sunlut un. Ajeh chu achate atute khatcha beh jong, David laltouna touva, Judah gamsung a vaihom ding umlou ding ahi.
