Jeremiah 47
1 This is the word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet about the Philistines before Pharaoh struck down Gaza.
Gaza Pharaoh a ngawn hlanah Philisti ham BOEIPA ol te tonghma Jeremiah taengla ha pawk.
2 This is what the LORD says: “See how the waters are rising from the north and becoming an overflowing torrent. They will overflow the land and its fullness, the cities and their inhabitants. The people will cry out, and all who dwell in the land will wail
He ni BOEIPA loh a thui. Tlangpuei lamkah tui ha phul tih soklong la poeh coeng ke. A long vaengah khohmuen neh a khopuei boeih neh a khuikah khosa te a yo ni. Te vaengah hlang te pang vetih khohmuen kah khosa khaw boeih rhung ni.
3 at the sound of the galloping hooves of stallions, the rumbling of chariots, and the clatter of their wheels. The fathers will not turn back for their sons; their hands will hang limp.
A marhang lueng kah khomae kah rhetlonah ol ah, a leng te a lengkho hlangping hinghuennah ah, a napa rhoek te a kut a khanah lamloh a ca rhoek te hoihaeng uh thai mahpawh.
4 For the day has come to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every remaining ally. Indeed, the LORD is about to destroy the Philistines, the remnant from the coasts of Caphtor.
Philisti pum rhoelrhak ham khaw, Tyre neh Sidon bom ham rhaengnaeng boeih te saii ham khohnin ha pai coeng. BOEIPA loh Kaptor sanglak kah Philisti kah a meet te a rhoelrhak coeng.
5 The people of Gaza will shave their heads in mourning; Ashkelon will be silenced. O remnant of their valley, how long will you gash yourself?
Gaza te lungawng la om vetih Ashkelon khaw hmata ni. A tuikol kah a meet te me hil nim na hlap ve?
6 ‘Alas, O sword of the LORD, how long until you rest? Return to your sheath; cease and be still!’
Anunae BOEIPA kah cunghang aih, mevaeng hil nim na mong pawt ve? Na capang khuila kun laeh, hoep uh lamtah kuemsuem laeh.
7 How can it rest when the LORD has commanded it? He has appointed it against Ashkelon and the shore of its coastland.”
Metlam na mong pai eh? BOEIPA loh Ashkelon ham te te a uen tih tuipuei langkaeng ham khaw pahoi a khueh coeng.
