< Jeremiah 44 >
1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews living in the land of Egypt —in Migdol, Tahpanhes, and Memphis —and in the land of Pathros:
Izip ram dawk kaawm e Judah taminaw pueng, Migdil, Tahpanhes, Noph kho hoi Pathros ram khosaknaw kong dawk Jeremiah koe ka tho e lawk.
2 “This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: You have seen all the disaster that I brought against Jerusalem and all the cities of Judah; and behold, they lie today in ruins and desolation
Ransahu BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni hettelah a dei, Jerusalem hoi Judah khopuinaw pueng e lathueng rawkkahmanae ka tho sak e naw pueng hah na hmu awh toe. Hatdawkvah, khenhaw! sahnin vah a kâraphoe teh apihai khosak awh hoeh toe.
3 because of the evil they have done. They provoked Me to anger by continuing to burn incense and to serve other gods that neither they nor you nor your fathers ever knew.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh ni thoseh, nangmouh ni thoseh, na mintoenaw ni thoseh a panue awh boihoeh e cathut alouke bawk hane hoi ahnimouh koe hmuitui thueng hanlah a cei awh teh, kaie lungkhuek sak nahanlah thoenae lam a dawn awh.
4 Yet I sent you all My servants the prophets again and again, saying: ‘Do not do this detestable thing that I hate.’
Hottelah nakunghai ka san profetnaw amom a thaw awh teh, ka patoun teh ahnimouh koevah, oe! hete panuettho e hno, ka hmuhma e heh sak awh hanh leih telah ka ti.
5 But they did not listen or incline their ears; they did not turn from their wickedness or stop burning incense to other gods.
Hatei cathut alouknaw koe hmuitui thueng hoeh hane hoi hawihoehnae kamlang takhai hanelah thai ngai awh hoeh.
6 Therefore My wrath and anger poured out and burned in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, so that they have become the desolate ruin they are today.
Hatdawkvah, ka lungkhueknae hoi ka lungkâannae teh Judah khopuinaw hoi Jerusalem lamnaw dawk ka rabawk teh, a kamtawi. Sahnin vah a coungnae patetlah a kâraphoe teh kingdi toe.
7 So now, this is what the LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Why are you doing such great harm to yourselves by cutting off from Judah man and woman, child and infant, leaving yourselves without a remnant?
Hatdawkvah, Isarel Cathut ransahu Cathut BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, bangkongmaw namamouh thung hoi napui tongpa, camo sanu ka net e hoi Judah taminaw thung hoi apihai pâhlung laipalah be pâmit hanelah hete kahawihoehe hno heh, namamouh taranlahoi letlang na sak awh teh,
8 Why are you provoking Me to anger by the work of your hands by burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to reside? As a result, you will be cut off and will become an object of cursing and reproach among all the nations of the earth.
khosak hanlah na ceinae Izip ram dawk e cathutnaw koe hmuitui na thueng awh teh, talai van e miphunnaw rahak vah, mahoima kâraphoe hane hoi, thoebo e tami hoi, pathoe e tami lah o hanelah na meikaphawknaw roeroe ni ka lungkhuek sak.
9 Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers and of the kings of Judah and their wives, as well as the wickedness that you and your wives committed in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Na kakhekungnaw hawihoehnae hoi Judah siangpahrangnaw hawihoehnae, tamimaya hawihoehnae, namamouh hawihoehnae hoi, na yunaw hawihoehnae Judah ram hoi Jerusalem lamthung dawk a sak awh e naw hah na pahnim awh toung maw.
10 To this day they have not humbled themselves or shown reverence, nor have they followed My instruction or the statutes that I set before you and your fathers.
Sahnin totouh pankângai kalawn awh hoeh. Na kakhekung hoi nangmae hmalah ka kamnue sak e ka kâlawk hoi ka phunglam hah na tarawi awh hoeh teh na taket awh hoeh.
11 Therefore this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: I will set My face to bring disaster and to cut off all Judah.
Hatdawkvah, ransahu BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni hettelah a dei, Khen awh haw nangmouh rawk nahane hoi Judah taminaw pueng raphoe hanelah na taran awh han.
12 And I will take away the remnant of Judah who have resolved to go to the land of Egypt to reside there; they will meet their end. They will all fall by the sword or be consumed by famine. From the least to the greatest, they will die by sword or famine; and they will become an object of cursing and horror, of vilification and reproach.
Hahoi kacawirae Judah Izip ram vah khosak hanlah kabawmnaw hah ka man vaiteh, be ka pâmit han. Izip ram lah ban awh vaiteh, tahloi, takang hoi be raphoe e lah ao han. Kathoengca koehoi kalenpoung totouh tahloi, takang hoi a due awh han. Thoebo e hoi tami ni kângairu e hoi lawkthoeumkha bap e, hnephnap e lah ao awh han.
13 I will punish those who live in the land of Egypt, just as I punished Jerusalem, by sword and famine and plague,
Jerusalem ka rek e patetlah Izip ram dawk kho ka sak e naw hah, tahloi, takang, lacik hoi ka rek han.
14 so that none of the remnant of Judah who have gone to reside in Egypt will escape or survive to return to the land of Judah, where they long to return and live; for none will return except a few fugitives.”
Hahoi Izip ram khosak hanlah kacetnaw thung hoi kacawirae Judah taminaw hah Judah ram ao awh nahane ban han a ngai poung awh e ram dawk a ban hanelah buet touh boehai ka dam lahoi tâcawt mahoeh. Arulahoi ka yawng e hoeh laipalah teh apihai ban mahoeh.
15 Then all the men who knew that their wives were burning incense to other gods, and all the women standing by—a great assembly—along with all the people living in the land of Egypt and in Pathros, said to Jeremiah,
Hattoteh taminaw pueng a yunaw ni cathut alouke koevah hmuitui a sawi awh telah ka panuek e naw hoi ka kangdout e napui moikapap naw, Izip ram dawk kho ka sak e tamimaya ni Pathros vah Jeremiah hah hettelah a pathung awh.
16 “As for the word you have spoken to us in the name of the LORD, we will not listen to you!
BAWIPA min lahoi kaimouh koe na dei awh e hah ka ngai awh mahoeh.
17 Instead, we will do everything we vowed to do: We will burn incense to the Queen of Heaven and offer drink offerings to her, just as we, our fathers, our kings, and our officials did in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. At that time we had plenty of food and good things, and we saw no disaster.
Hatei kamamouh hoi kakhekungnaw, ka siangpahrangnaw hoi kahrawikungnaw ni Judah khopuinaw hoi Jerusalem lam dawk ouk a sak awh e patetlah kalvan siangpahrangnu koe hmuitui sawinae hoi ahni koe nei thuengnae awi nateh, kamamae pahni dawk hoi ka tâcawt e lawk patetlah ka sak awh roeroe han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hatnae tueng dawk hmaisawi teh, canei kawi apap teh rucatnae kâhmo awh boihoeh.
18 But from the time we stopped burning incense to the Queen of Heaven and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have lacked everything and have been perishing by sword and famine.”
Kalvan siangpahrangnu koe hmaisawi thuengnae hoi nei han rabawknae ka kâhat awh hnukkhu teh, bangpuengpa dawk ka vout awh teh, tahloi hoi takang hoi raphoe e lah ka o awh.
19 “Moreover,” said the women, “when we burned incense to the Queen of Heaven and poured out drink offerings to her, was it without our husbands’ knowledge that we made sacrificial cakes in her image and poured out drink offerings to her?”
Hahoi napuinaw ni kalvan siangpahrangnu koe hmuitui hmaisawinae hoi nei han rabawknae a sak awhnae koe vanaw hoi lungkuep hoeh lahoi maw ama bawknae dawk vaiyei a sak awh teh ahni koe nei han rabawknae sak awh telah ati awh.
20 Then Jeremiah said to all the people, both men and women, who were answering him,
Hattoteh Jeremiah ni, taminaw pueng napui tongpa hoi ama kapathungnaw koe,
21 “As for the incense you burned in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem—you, your fathers, your kings, your officials, and the people of the land—did the LORD not remember and bring this to mind?
Judah khopuinaw hoi Jerusalem lamthungnaw dawk namamouh hoi na kakhekung, na siangpahrangnaw, na kahrawikungnaw hoi ram thung e tamimaya ni hai hmuitui a sawi awh e hah, BAWIPA ni a pâkuem teh a lung dawk tat hoeh maw.
22 So the LORD could no longer endure the evil deeds and detestable acts you committed, and your land became a desolation, a horror, and an object of cursing, without inhabitant, as it is this day.
Yonnae na sak awh e hoi panuettho e hno na sak awh e dawk, BAWIPA ni khang thai hoeh toe. Hatdawkvah, nangmae ram teh kingdinae, kângairunae, thoebonae, hoi karingkung kaawm hoeh e sahnin e patetlah doeh ao.
23 Because you burned incense and sinned against the LORD, and did not obey the voice of the LORD or walk in His instruction, His statutes, and His testimonies, this disaster has befallen you, as you see today.”
Hmuitui na sawi awh teh BAWIPA e lathueng yonnae na sak awh teh, BAWIPA lawk na thai ngai awh hoeh. A kâlawk thoseh, a phunglam thoseh, na panue sak e lawk thoseh, na tarawi awh hoeh dawkvah, hete hno kahawihoeh e, atu e patetlah nangmouh lathueng ka phat e doeh telah a ti.
24 Then Jeremiah said to all the people, including all the women, “Hear the word of the LORD, all those of Judah who are in the land of Egypt.
Hothloilah, Jeremiah ni tamimaya hoi napuinaw koe, Izip ram e Judah taminaw pueng, BAWIPA e lawk heh thaihaw.
25 This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: As for you and your wives, you have spoken with your mouths and fulfilled with your hands your words: ‘We will surely perform our vows that we have made to burn incense to the Queen of Heaven and to pour out drink offerings to her.’ Go ahead, then, do what you have promised! Keep your vows!
Ransahu BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni hettelah a dei. Namamouh hoi na yunaw ni kalvan siangpahrangnu koevah, hmuitui sawi e hoi, nei rabawk hanelah, ka dei tangcoung e patetlah ka sak awh roeroe han telah na pahni ni a dei teh na kut ni hai a kuep sak. Na lawk kam hah caksak awh haw. Na kâcai e naw kuep sak roeroe awh.
26 Nevertheless, hear the word of the LORD, all you people of Judah living in Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by My great name, says the LORD, that never again will any man of Judah living in the land of Egypt invoke My name or say, ‘As surely as the Lord GOD lives.’
Hatdawkvah, nangmouh Judah taminaw, Izip ram kho ka sak e taminaw pueng. BAWIPA e lawk thai awh. Thaihaw! Bawipa Jehovah a hring e patetlah Izip ram dawk kho ka sak e Judah tami apipatet nihai, ka min dei hanh lawi naseh telah kalenpounge ka mitnout lahoi thoe ka bo telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
27 I am watching over them for harm and not for good, and every man of Judah who is in the land of Egypt will meet his end by sword or famine, until they are finished off.
Khenhaw! ahawi nahane laipalah, a rawk awh nahanelah, ahnimouh pou ka pawp. Judah tami Izip ram dawk kaawmnaw pueng teh, tahloi, takang hoi he raphoe hoehroukrak, be kahma sak e lah ao han.
28 Those who escape the sword will return from Egypt to Judah, few in number, and the whole remnant of Judah who went to dwell in the land of Egypt will know whose word will stand, Mine or theirs!
Tahloi dawk hoi ka hlout e tami tangawn hah Izip ram hoi ban awh vaiteh, Judah ram dawk a kâen awh han. Kacawirae Judah taminaw pueng, Izip ram dawk khosak hanelah kacetnaw ni, apie lawk maw ka cak han, ka lawk maw, ahnimae lawk tie a panue awh han.
29 This will be a sign to you that I will punish you in this place, declares the LORD, so that you may know that My threats of harm against you will surely stand.
Hahoi hetheh nangmouh hanlah minoutnae lah ao han. Ka lawk heh nangmouh hanlah hawihoehnae lah a kangdue roeroe telah na panue thai awh nahan, hete hmuen koe ka sak han telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
30 This is what the LORD says: Behold, I will deliver Pharaoh Hophra king of Egypt into the hands of his enemies who seek his life, just as I delivered Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, the enemy who was seeking his life.”
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah teh a hringnae ka thet hane a taran Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar kut dawk ka poe e patetlah Faro Hophra Izip siangpahrang teh ka thet hane a taran koevah ka poe han telah a ti.
