< Jeremiah 16 >
1 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Hathnukkhu, BAWIPA e lawk kai koe a pha teh,
2 “You must not marry or have sons or daughters in this place.”
yu na lat mahoeh, hete hmuen koevah, canaw na tawn mahoeh.
3 For this is what the LORD says concerning the sons and daughters born in this place, and the mothers who bore them, and the fathers who fathered them in this land:
Hete hmuen koe khe e canaw hoi a manu na pa kong dawk BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei,
4 “They will die from deadly diseases. They will not be mourned or buried, but will lie like dung on the ground. They will be finished off by sword and famine, and their corpses will become food for the birds of the air and beasts of the earth.”
ahnimanaw teh Lacik hoi a due awh han, Hotnaw hah apinihai kapkhai mahoeh, pakawm mahoeh, vaipuen talai dawk eitaboung patetlah a yan awh han. Tahloi hoi takangnae hoi a due awh han. Ahnimae ronaw teh kalvan e tava hoi moithangnaw hane rawca lah ao han.
5 Indeed, this is what the LORD says: “Do not enter a house where there is a funeral meal. Do not go to mourn or show sympathy, for I have removed from this people My peace, My loving devotion, and My compassion,” declares the LORD.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, ro im cet hanh, lungpahawi hanelah hai cet hanh, ama hai khui hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hete taminaw koehoi lungmawngnae, pahrennae lungmanae he ka la pouh toe telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
6 “Both great and small will die in this land. They will not be buried or mourned, nor will anyone cut himself or shave his head for them.
Hete ram dawk tami kalen kathoung hai a due awh han. Apinihai pakawm mahoeh, apinihai khui mahoeh. Apinihai a mahoima kâbouk mahoeh, a sam hai ngaw mahoeh.
7 No food will be offered to comfort those who mourn the dead; not even a cup of consolation will be given for the loss of a father or mother.
Ro karingkungnaw hoi kapakawpnaw lungpahawi hanelah rawca apinihai thak pouh mahoeh. Ka dout e a na pa hoi a manu han patenghai thak pouh mahoeh. Ahnimouh lungpahawi hanelah apinihai tui boehai poe mahoeh.
8 You must not enter a house where there is feasting and sit down with them to eat and drink.
Hatdawkvah, caneinae im dawk kâen hanh, ahnimouh hoi cungtalah tahung hanh, cat hanh.
9 For this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: I am going to remove from this place, before your very eyes and in your days, the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of the bride and bridegroom.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ransahu BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni hettelah a dei, nangmouh mithmu hoi na hring na thung vah lunghawilawknaw hah ka roum sak vaiteh, yuvâ kâpaluennae lawk hai hete hmuen koe ka roum sak han.
10 When you tell these people all these things, they will ask you, ‘Why has the LORD pronounced all this great disaster against us? What is our guilt? What is the sin that we have committed against the LORD our God?’
Hete lawknaw pueng hah hete taminaw koevah na dei pouh navah hotnaw ni, bangmaw BAWIPA ni hettelah totouh kahawihoeh poung e hno hah a dei vai. Bang hno maw sakpayon awh, BAWIPA kaimae Cathut koe vah bang yonnae maw ka sak awh, tet awh pawiteh,
11 Then you are to answer them: ‘It is because your fathers have forsaken Me, declares the LORD, and followed other gods, and served and worshiped them. They abandoned Me and did not keep My instruction.
hettelah na dei pouh han, na mintoenaw ni kai na hnoun awh teh, alouke cathutnaw hnuk a kâbang awh teh, ahnimae thaw a tawk pouh awh. Kai na hnoun awh teh, kaie kâlawk hai tarawi awh hoeh.
12 And you have done more evil than your fathers. See how each of you follows the stubbornness of his evil heart instead of obeying Me.
Nangmouh hai na mintoenaw hlak hoe na thoe hnawn awh. Khenhaw! kaie lawk ngai laipalah tami pueng ni amamae lungpouk patetlah koung a cei awh.
13 So I will cast you out of this land into a land that neither you nor your fathers have known. There you will serve other gods day and night, for I will show you no favor.’
Hatdawkvah, kai ni hete ram thung hoi nangmouh hoi na mintoenaw ni na panue boihoeh e ram koe lah na pâlei awh han, hote hmuen koe vah karum khodai alouke cathutnaw e thaw na tawk awh han. Kai ni nangmouh hah na pasai awh mahoeh.
14 Yet behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when they will no longer say, ‘As surely as the LORD lives, who brought the Israelites up out of the land of Egypt.’
Hatei, Isarel taminaw Izip ram hoi na kahrawikung, BAWIPA teh a hring dawkvah telah taminaw ni a dei awh hoeh nahanelah, a hnin teh a pha lahun, telah BAWIPA ni a ti.
15 Instead they will say, ‘As surely as the LORD lives, who brought the Israelites up out of the land of the north and all the other lands to which He had banished them.’ For I will return them to their land that I gave to their forefathers.
Hatei taminaw ni, atunglae ram hoi ahnimouh a hreknae ramnaw pueng thung hoi Isarelnaw kahrawikung BAWIPA teh a hring tangngak dawkvah ati awh han. Ahnimouh teh kai ni a na mintoenaw koevah, ka poe e ram thung bout ka o sak awh han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
16 But for now I will send for many fishermen, declares the LORD, and they will catch them. After that I will send for many hunters, and they will hunt them down on every mountain and hill, even from the clefts of the rocks.
Hatei, atu teh tangakamankungnaw moikapap ka kaw vaiteh, ahnimouh ni a man awh han. Hahoi kai ni moi ka kathoumnaw moikapap ka kaw vaiteh, monrui hoi montam hoi talungkâko totouh a ka awh han.
17 For My eyes are on all their ways. They are not hidden from My face, and their guilt is not concealed from My eyes.
Ahnimae lamthung pueng hah ka mit ni pheng a hmu, kai koe hoi kâhrawk thai awh mahoeh, ahnimae yonnae hai ka mithmu hoi hro thai lah awm mahoeh.
18 And I will first repay them double their iniquity and their sin, because they have defiled My land with the carcasses of their detestable idols, and they have filled My inheritance with their abominations.”
Amamae thoenae hoi yonnae dawkvah, let hni hoi ka pathung han, ahnimouh ni ka ram hah panuettho e ro hoi a kamhnawng sak awh teh, panuetthonae ni ka coe e ram dawk a kawi sak telah BAWIPA ni a ti.
19 O LORD, my strength and my fortress, my refuge in the day of distress, the nations will come to You from the ends of the earth, and they will say, “Our fathers inherited nothing but lies, worthless idols of no benefit at all.
Oe BAWIPA ka thaonae hoi ka rapan, kângairu nah kângue e hoi talai apoutnae koehoi Jentelnaw nang koe a tho awh han. Mintoenaw ni laithoe, cungkeihoehe hno, ayawmyin hno hoeh laipalah banghai a pang awh hane râw awm hoeh.
20 Can man make gods for himself? Such are not gods!”
Tami ni ama hanlah cathut lah kaawm hoeh e cathut hah a sak han na maw.
21 “Therefore behold, I will inform them, and this time I will make them know My power and My might; then they will know that My name is the LORD.
Hatdawkvah, kai ni hotnaw hah ka panue sak han. Ka kut hoi hnotithainae ka panue sak vaiteh, ka min hah Jehovah doeh tie a panue awh han.
