< Jeremiah 39 >

1 In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched against Jerusalem with his entire army and laid siege to the city.
Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah angraenghaih saning takawtto haih, khrah hato naah, Babylon siangpahrang Nebuchadnezzar loe Jerusalem to tuk hanah, angmah ih misatuh kaminawk hoi nawnto angzoh moe, Jerusalem to takui.
2 And on the ninth day of the fourth month of Zedekiah’s eleventh year, the city was breached.
Vangpui loe Zedekiah angraeng ah ohhaih saning hathlaito pacoeng, khrah palito haih, ni takawtto naah amtimh.
3 Then all the officials of the king of Babylon entered and sat in the Middle Gate: Nergal-sharezer of Samgar, Nebo-sarsekim the Rabsaris, Nergal-sharezer the Rabmag, and all the rest of the officials of the king of Babylon.
Babylon siangpahrang ih angraengnawk boih a thungah akun o moe, khongkha um ah anghnut o; Nergal-Sharezer, Samgar-Nebo, Sarsekim, Rabsari, Nergal-Sharezer, Rab-Mak hoi Babylon siangpahrang ih angraengnawk athum o boih.
4 When Zedekiah king of Judah and all the soldiers saw them, they fled. They left the city at night by way of the king’s garden, through the gate between the two walls, and they went out along the route to the Arabah.
Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah hoi misatuh kaminawk boih mah hnuk o naah, cawnh o; siangpahrang ih takha loklam bang hoiah khoving thungah, sipae hnetto salak hoiah tacawt o moe, tangtling ohhaih ahmuen bangah a caeh o.
5 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued them and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. They seized him and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he pronounced judgment on him.
Toe Khaldian misatuh kaminawk mah nihcae to patom moe, Jeriko tangtling ah Zedekiah to naeh o; anih to naeh o moe, Babylon siangpahrang Nebuchadnezzar khaeah Hammath prae Riblah ah hoih o, to ah anih to lokcaek o.
6 There at Riblah the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the nobles of Judah.
Riblah ah Babylon siangpahrang mah Zedekiah ih capanawk to ampa hmaa ah hum pae, Judah kaminawk ukkung angraengnawk doeh a hum.
7 Then he put out Zedekiah’s eyes and bound him with bronze chains to take him to Babylon.
Zedekiah ih mik to taprok pae moe, sumqui hoiah pathlet pacoengah, Babylon ah a caeh haih.
8 The Chaldeans set fire to the palace of the king and to the houses of the people, and they broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
Khaldian kaminawk mah siangpahrang im hoi kaminawk ih im to hmai hoiah thlaek pae o pacoengah, Jerusalem sipae doeh phraek pae o boih.
9 Then Nebuzaradan captain of the guard carried away to Babylon the remnant of the people who had remained in the city, along with the deserters who had defected to him.
Siangpahrang toepkung angraeng Nebuzaradan mah vangpui thungah anghmat kaminawk, anih khaeah kacaeh kaminawk hoi avang thungah kaom anghmat kaminawk to Babylon ah misong ah a caeh haih.
10 But Nebuzaradan left behind in the land of Judah some of the poor people who had no property, and at that time he gave them vineyards and fields.
Toe misatuh angraeng Nebuzaradan mah tidoeh tawn ai amtang kaminawk to Judah prae ah caehtaak sut; nihcae hanah misur takhanawk hoi lawknawk to a paek.
11 Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had given orders about Jeremiah through Nebuzaradan captain of the guard, saying,
Babylon siangpahrang Nebuchadnezzar mah Jeremiah kawng pongah siangpahrang ih misatuh angraeng Nebuzaradan khaeah hae tiah lok to paek,
12 “Take him, look after him, and do not let any harm come to him; do for him whatever he says.”
Jeremiah to la ah loe kahoihah khenzawn ah; nganbawh kana paek hmah; a thuih ih lok baktih toengah sah paeh, tiah a naa.
13 So Nebuzaradan captain of the guard, Nebushazban the Rabsaris, Nergal-sharezer the Rabmag, and all the captains of the king of Babylon
To pongah siangpahrang katoep misatuh angraeng Nebuzaradan, kacoehta angraeng ah kaom Nebushazban, Rabsari, Nergal-Sharezer, Rab-Mak hoi Babylon siangpahrang ih angraengnawk boih mah kami to patoeh moe,
14 had Jeremiah brought from the courtyard of the guard, and they turned him over to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, to take him home. So Jeremiah remained among his own people.
thongim thung hoiah Jeremiah to laksak, Shaphan capa Ahikam, anih ih capa Gedaliah khaeah, angmah im ah caeh haih hanah a thuih pae; to pongah Jeremiah loe angmah ih kaminawk khaeah oh.
15 And while Jeremiah had been confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the LORD had come to him:
Thongim thungah oh naah, Angraeng ih lok Jeremiah khaeah angzoh,
16 “Go and tell Ebed-melech the Cushite that this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘I am about to fulfill My words against this city for harm and not for good, and on that day they will be fulfilled before your eyes.
Ethiopia kami Ebed-Melek khaeah caeh ah loe, misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah, khenah, Hae vangpui hoihaih sak han ih na ai, amrosak hanah ka thuih ih lok to ka koepsak han; na mikhnuk roe ah akoep tih boeh, tiah thuih.
17 But I will deliver you on that day, declares the LORD, and you will not be delivered into the hands of the men whom you fear.
Toe to na niah nang to kang loisak han, na zit ih kaminawk ban ah kang paek mak ai, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
18 For I will surely rescue you so that you do not fall by the sword. Because you have trusted in Me, you will escape with your life like a spoil of war, declares the LORD.’”
Ka nuiah oephaih na tawnh pongah, kang loisak tangtang han, sumsen hoiah na dueh mak ai; na hinghaih loe na hnuk ih tangqum baktiah om tih, tiah Angraeng mah thuih, tiah a naa.
