< Jeremiah 32 >
1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.
Judah manghai Zedekiah kah a kum, kum rha dongah BOEIPA taeng lamkah ol te Jeremiah taengla ha pawk. Te vaengah Nebukhanezar kah a kum tah kum hlai rhet lo coeng.
2 At that time the army of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet was imprisoned in the courtyard of the guard, which was in the palace of the king of Judah.
Te vaengah Babylon manghai tatthai rhoek loh Jerusalem te a dum uh coeng. Tonghma Jeremiah khaw Judah manghai im kah vongup thongim ah a khoh tih om coeng.
3 For Zedekiah king of Judah had imprisoned him, saying: “Why are you prophesying like this? You claim that the LORD says, ‘Behold, I am about to deliver this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will capture it.
Judah manghai Zedekiah loh, “'BOEIPA loh he khopuei he Babylon manghai kut ah ka paek coeng tih a tuuk pawn ni.
4 Zedekiah king of Judah will not escape from the hands of the Chaldeans, but he will surely be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon, and will speak with him face to face and see him eye to eye.
Tedae Judah manghai Zedekiah he Khalden kut lamloh poenghal mahpawh. Babylon manghai kut ah a paek rhoe a paek rhoe ni. Te vaengah a ka neh a ka voek uh rhoi vetih a mik rhoi khaw a mik, mik ah so uh rhoi bitni.
5 He will take Zedekiah to Babylon, where he will stay until I attend to him, declares the LORD. If you fight against the Chaldeans, you will not succeed.’”
Zedekiah te Babylon loh a khuen vetih kai n'hip hlan duela pahoi om ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Khalden te na vathoh thil akhaw na thaihtak mahpawh,’ a ti,” tila thui ham nim na tonghma?” a ti nah tih a khoh.
6 Jeremiah replied, “The word of the LORD came to me, saying:
Te vaengah Jeremiah loh, “BOEIPA ol kai taengla ha pawk tih,
7 Behold! Hanamel, the son of your uncle Shallum, is coming to you to say, ‘Buy for yourself my field in Anathoth, for you have the right of redemption to buy it.’
“Na panoe Shallum capa Hanamel te na taengla ha pawk coeng te. Anathoth kah kai khohmuen te namah ham lai laeh. Lai ham tlannah khaw namah kah hamsum ni, ' a ti ni,” a ti.
8 Then, as the LORD had said, my cousin Hanamel came to me in the courtyard of the guard and urged me, ‘Please buy my field in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, for you own the right of inheritance and redemption. Buy it for yourself.’” Then I knew that this was the word of the LORD.
BOEIPA ol bangla ka panoe capa Hanamel te kai taengah thongim vongup la ha pawk. Te phoeiah kamah te, “Benjamin khohmuen, Anathoth kah kai khohmuen te lai laeh. Rho kah hamsum khaw namah coeng tih tlannah khaw namah kah ni, namah ham lai laeh. Te dongah he tah BOEIPA ol ni tila ka ming,” a ti.
9 So I bought the field in Anathoth from my cousin Hanamel, and I weighed out seventeen shekels of silver.
Te dongah ka panoe capa Hanamel taeng lamkah khohmuen Anathoth kah te ka lai pah. Anih ham tangka la ngun te shekel hlai rhih ka thuek pah.
10 I signed and sealed the deed, called in witnesses, and weighed out the silver on the scales.
Cabu dongah khaw ka daek tih kutnoek ka daeng. Laipai te ka laipai sak phoeiah ni tangka te cooi dongah ka khiing pah.
11 Then I took the deed of purchase—the sealed copy with its terms and conditions, as well as the open copy—
Olpaek neh oltlueh a daeng thil tih a rha, lainah cabu te ka loh.
12 and I gave this deed to Baruch son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, in the sight of my cousin Hanamel and the witnesses who were signing the purchase agreement and all the Jews sitting in the courtyard of the guard.
Te phoeiah lainah cabu te ka panoe capa Hanamel mikhmuh neh lainah cabu dongah aka daek laipai kah mikhmuh neh, thongim vongup kah aka ngol Judah pum kah mikhmuh ah Maaseiah koca Neriah capa Barukh taengah ka paek.
13 In their sight I instructed Baruch,
Barukh te amih mikhmuh ah ka uen tih,
14 “This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Take these deeds—both the sealed copy and the open copy of the deed of purchase—and put them in a clay jar to preserve them for a long time.
“He tah Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA long ni a thui. He cabu he lainah cabu la khuen laeh. Kutnoek a daeng neh a rha cabu te khaw lai am khuiah khueh. Te daengah ni kum a sen a kuei eh.
15 For this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Houses, fields, and vineyards will again be bought in this land.”
He tah Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA long ni a thui. He diklai kah im khaw, khohmuen khaw, misur khaw koep a lai uh ni,” ka ti nah.
16 After I had given the deed of purchase to Baruch son of Neriah, I prayed to the LORD:
Te phoeiah BOEIPA taengla ka thangthui tih lainah cabu te Neriah capa Barukh taengah ka paek.
17 “Oh, Lord GOD! You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too difficult for You!
Te vaengah, “Ya-oe ka Boeipa Yahovah, namah loh vaan neh diklai he na saii ne. Na thadueng tanglue neh na ban na lam tih namah ham tah ol boeih he khobaerhambae voel moenih.
18 You show loving devotion to thousands but lay the iniquity of the fathers into the laps of their children after them, O great and mighty God whose name is the LORD of Hosts,
A thawng thawng taengah sitlohnah na saii dae pa rhoek kathaesainah te amih hnukah a ca rhoek rhang dongah khaw a thuung. Tanglue neh hlangrhalh Pathen tah a ming caempuei Yahweh ni.
19 the One great in counsel and mighty in deed, whose eyes are on all the ways of the sons of men, to reward each one according to his ways and according to the fruit of his deeds.
cilsuep khaw tanglue tih na bibi khaw cungkuem pai. Na mik loh hlang ca rhoe kah longpuei boeih te a sawt tih hlang boeih te a longpuei tarhing neh a khoboe kah a thaih tarhing ah na paek.
20 You performed signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, and You do so to this very day, both in Israel and among all mankind. And You have made a name for Yourself, as is the case to this day.
Egypt kho ah miknoek neh kopoekrhai khaw na khueh. Te khohnin kah te Israel khui neh hlang taengah khaw tahae khohnin kah bangla namah ming ham ni na saii.
21 You brought Your people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs and wonders, with a strong hand and an outstretched arm, and with great terror.
Na pilnam Israel te Egypt kho lamloh miknoek neh, kopoekrhai neh, tlungluen kut neh na khuen. Na ban nen khaw mueipuelnah la muep na thueng thil.
22 You gave them this land that You had sworn to give their fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Suktui neh khoitui aka pha khohmuen he amih taengah paek ham a napa rhoek taengah na toemngam bangla he khohmuen he amih taengah ni na paek.
23 They came in and possessed it, but they did not obey Your voice or walk in Your law. They failed to perform all that You commanded them to do, and so You have brought upon them all this disaster.
Ha pawk uh tih he he a pang uh vaengah na ol te hnatun uh pawh. Na olkhueng te khaw na olkhueng bangla vai uh pawt tih amih taengah saii ham na uen boeih te saii uh pawh. Te dongah ni he kah yoethae cungkuem he amih taengah na thoeng sak.
24 See how the siege ramps are mounted against the city to capture it. And by sword and famine and plague, the city has been given into the hands of the Chaldeans who are fighting against it. What You have spoken has happened, as You now see!
Khopuei amah loh ham tanglung la ha pawk uh coeng ke. Te dongah khopuei he amah aka vathoh thil Khalden kut dongah a paek coeng. cunghang neh, khokha neh, duektahaw na thui te khaw thoeng tih na hmuh coeng he.
25 Yet You, O Lord GOD, have said to me, ‘Buy for yourself the field with silver and call in witnesses, even though the city has been delivered into the hands of the Chaldeans!’”
Boeipa Yahovah namah loh kai taengah, “Khopuei he Khalden kut ah pae mai cakhaw khohmuen he tangka neh namah ham lai lamtah laipai te laipai sak na ti,” a ti nah.
26 Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
Te vaengah BOEIPA ol te Jeremiah taengah ha pawk tih,
27 “Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is anything too difficult for Me?
“Kai tah pumsa boeih kah BOEIPA Pathen ni he, hno boeih he kai ham khobaerhambae a?” a ti nah.
28 Therefore this is what the LORD says: Behold, I am about to deliver this city into the hands of the Chaldeans and of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who will capture it.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh he ni a. thui. He khopuei he Khalden kut neh Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar kut ah ka tloeng coeng tih a khaih pawn ni he.
29 And the Chaldeans who are fighting against this city will come in, set it on fire, and burn it, along with the houses of those who provoked Me to anger by burning incense to Baal on their rooftops and by pouring out drink offerings to other gods.
He khopuei aka vathoh thil Khalden rhoek ha pawk uh vetih he khopuei he hmai neh a hlup ni. Te vaengah kai veet ham Baal taeng neh pathen taengah tuisi a bueih uh tih a imphu ah a phum te im neh a hoeh pah ni.
30 For the children of Israel and of Judah have done nothing but evil in My sight from their youth; indeed, they have done nothing but provoke Me to anger by the work of their hands, declares the LORD.
Israel ca neh Judah ca khaw ana om van tih a camoe lamloh ka mikhmuh ah boethae ni a. saii uh. Israel ca ngawn long khaw a kut dongkah bisai neh kai m'veet uh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
31 For this city has aroused My wrath and fury from the day it was built until now. Therefore I will remove it from My presence
He khopuei he ka thintoek ham neh ka khosi ham khaw ka taengah om ngawn coeng. A thoong uh khohnin lamloh tahae khohnin duela ka mikhmuh lamloh a khoe rhoe coeng.
32 because of all the evil the children of Israel and of Judah have done to provoke Me to anger—they, their kings, their officials, their priests and prophets, the men of Judah, and the residents of Jerusalem.
Israel ca rhoek neh Judah ca rhoek, amih kah a manghai rhoek neh a mangpa rhoek, a khosoih rhoek neh a tonghma, Judah hlang neh Jerusalem khosa loh boethae a saii boeih te kai ni m'veet uh.
33 They have turned their backs to Me and not their faces. Though I taught them again and again, they would not listen or respond to discipline.
Kai taengla a rhawn a koh uh tih a maelhmai then pawh. Te vaengah amih tukkil ham he a thoh neh a tukkil akhaw thuituennah doe ham a hnatun uh moenih.
34 They have placed their abominations in the house that bears My Name, and so have defiled it.
Im ah a sarhingkoi te a khueh uh tih a poeih ham te kai ming a khue thiluh.
35 They have built the high places of Baal in the Valley of Hinnom to make their sons and daughters pass through the fire to Molech—something I never commanded them, nor had it ever entered My mind, that they should commit such an abomination and cause Judah to sin.
A canu neh a capa te Molek taengah paan sak ham kolrhawk ah Baal hmuensang te a thoh uh. Te tueilaehkoi te saii ham amih ka uen pawt tih ka lungbuei khaw a paan moenih. Te dongah Judah he tholh rhoela tholh.
36 Now therefore, about this city of which you say, ‘It will be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword and famine and plague,’ this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says:
Tedae he khopuei kawng tah Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh a thui tangloeng coeng he. Te ni nangmih khaw, 'Babylon manghai kut dongah cunghang neh, khokha neh, duektahaw neh a thak ni, ' a ti te.
37 I will surely gather My people from all the lands to which I have banished them in My furious anger and great wrath, and I will return them to this place and make them dwell in safety.
Kai loh amih te diklai pum lamkah ka coi coeng he. Ka thintoek ah, ka kosi neh ka thinhul bat ah ni te lam te amih ka heh. Tedae amih te he hmuen la kam mael puei vetih ngaikhuek la kho ka sak sak ni.
38 They will be My people, and I will be their God.
Kamah taengah pilnam la om uh vetih kai khaw amih taengah Pathen la ka om uh ni.
39 I will give them one heart and one way, so that they will always fear Me for their own good and for the good of their children after them.
Te vaengah amih te lungbuei pakhat neh longpuei pakhat ni ka paek eh. Te daengah ni hnin takuem ah kai he n'rhih uh vetih amamih ham neh amih hnukkah a ca rhoek ham khaw a then eh.
40 I will make an everlasting covenant with them: I will never turn away from doing good to them, and I will put My fear in their hearts, so that they will never turn away from Me.
Amih taengah kumhal kah paipi te ka saii vetih amih taengah ka voelphoen ham khaw amih taeng lamloh ka paa mahpawh. Kai hinyahnah te amih thinko ah ka khueh daengah kai taeng lamloh a nong uh pawt eh.
41 Yes, I will rejoice in doing them good, and I will faithfully plant them in this land with all My heart and with all My soul.
Amih taengah voelphoeng ham te amih soah ka ngaingaih ni. Amih te he khohmuen ah ka lungbuei boeih, ka hinglu boeih neh oltak dongah ka phung ni.
42 For this is what the LORD says: Just as I have brought all this great disaster on this people, so I will bring on them all the good I have promised them.
BOEIPA loh he ni a. thui. He pilnam soah he yoethae tanglue a cungkuem ka thoeng sak bangla amih taengah hnothen a cungkuem la ka thui te amih taengah ka thoeng sak van.
43 And fields will be bought in this land about which you are saying, ‘It is a desolation, without man or beast; it has been delivered into the hands of the Chaldeans.’
He kah kho ah khohmuen he koep a lai ni. Te ni nangmih loh, 'Hlang neh rhamsa aka om pawh khopong te Khalden kut dongah a paek,’ na ti uh.
44 Fields will be purchased with silver, and deeds will be signed, sealed, and witnessed in the land of Benjamin, in the areas surrounding Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah—the cities of the hill country, the foothills, and the Negev—because I will restore them from captivity, declares the LORD.”
Khohmuen te tangka neh a lai uh vetih cabu dongah daek ham neh kutnoek daeng ham khaw Jerusalem kaepvai ah, Judah khopuei ah, tlang kah khopuei ah, kolrhawk khopuei ah, tuithim khopuei ah, Benjamin kho ah laipai te a a laipai sak ni. Amih khuikah thongtla te ka mael puei ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
