Jeremiah 48
1 Concerning Moab, this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: “Woe to Nebo, for it will be devastated. Kiriathaim will be captured and disgraced; the fortress will be shattered and dismantled.
Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh Moab ham he ni a. thui. Anunae Nebo aih te, a rhoelrhak neh yak vetih a tuuk ni. Kiriathaim khaw yak vetih a imsang khaw rhihyawp ni.
2 There is no longer praise for Moab; in Heshbon they devise evil against her: ‘Come, let us cut her off from nationhood.’ You too, O people of Madmen, will be silenced; the sword will pursue you.
Moab koehnah te koep om mahpawh. Heshbon ah anih te a moeh tih boethae loh a pongpa thil. Madmen khaw namtom lamloh saii uh sih. Namah hnukah cunghang loh m'paan daengah na kuemsuem bitni.
3 A voice cries out from Horonaim: ‘Devastation and great destruction!’
Horonaim lamkah rhoelrhanah pangngawlnah ol neh pocinah tanglue aih te.
4 Moab will be shattered; her little ones will cry out.
Moab te bawt vetih a pang te a canoi loh a yaak ni.
5 For on the ascent to Luhith they weep bitterly as they go, and on the descent to Horonaim cries of distress resound over the destruction:
Luhith kah Luhith tangkham te a rhah a rhah doeah luei. Horonaim singling ah khaw rhal taengkah pocinah pangngawlnah te a yaak uh.
6 ‘Flee! Run for your lives! Become like a juniper in the desert.’
Rhaelrham lamtah na hinglu ham poenghal puei laeh. Khosoek kah koknai bangla na om coeng.
7 Because you trust in your works and treasures, you too will be captured, and Chemosh will go into exile with his priests and officials.
Na bibi neh na thakvoh dongah na pangtung dongah namah khaw n'tuuk pawn ni. Khemosh kah a khosoih rhoek neh a mangpa rhoek vangsawn la rhenten a khuen ni.
8 The destroyer will move against every city, and not one town will escape. The valley will also be ruined, and the high plain will be destroyed, as the LORD has said.
Khopuei tom ah aka rhoelrhak te ha pawk vetih khopuei te loeih mahpawh. BOEIPA loh a thui coeng dongah tuikol loh moelh vetih tlangkol tim ni.
9 Put salt on Moab, for she will be laid waste; her cities will become desolate, with no one to dwell in them.
Moab te ding sak ham a phae pae lamtah khuen laeh saeh. A khopuei te imsuep la om vetih a khuiah khosa om mahpawh.
10 Cursed is the one who is remiss in doing the work of the LORD, and cursed is he who withholds his sword from bloodshed.
Vuelvaeknah neh BOEIPA kah bitat aka saii tah thae a phoei coeng tih ak thii lamloh a cunghang aka hloh khaw thae a phoei thil.
11 Moab has been at ease from youth, settled like wine on its dregs; he has not been poured from vessel to vessel or gone into exile. So his flavor has remained the same, and his aroma is unchanged.
Moab he a camoe lamloh rhalthal tih a sampa dongah mong te. Am khat lamloh am khat dongla kong noek pawt tih vangsawn la a caeh noek moenih. A khuikah a omih te cak tangloeng tih a bo khaw sap pawh.
12 Therefore behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will send to him wanderers, who will pour him out. They will empty his vessels and shatter his jars.
Te dongah BOEIPA kah olphong khohnin ha pawk tangloeng he. Hlang aka khuum rhoek te a taengla ka tueih vetih anih a khuum uh ni. A am te a khawk pah vetih a khap a thaeh pah ni.
13 Then Moab will be ashamed of Chemosh, just as the house of Israel was ashamed when they trusted in Bethel.
A pangtungnah Bethel kah Israel imkhui a yah bangla Khemosh kongah Moab te yak ni.
14 How can you say, ‘We are warriors, mighty men ready for battle’?
Balae tih, “Kaimih kah hlangrhalh rhoek neh tatthai hlang caemtloek la om,” na ti uh?
15 Moab has been destroyed and its towns have been invaded; the best of its young men have gone down in the slaughter, declares the King, whose name is the LORD of Hosts.
Moab a rhoelrhak vetih a khopuei khuen ni. A tongpang hlangrhoei rhoek te a maeh la suntla uh ni. A ming dongah caempuei BOEIPA manghai kah olphong ni.
16 Moab’s calamity is at hand, and his affliction is rushing swiftly.
Moab rhainah ha pawk ham yoei coeng tih a boethae loh bahoeng loe ni.
17 Mourn for him, all you who surround him, everyone who knows his name; tell how the mighty scepter is shattered— the glorious staff!
A kaepvai boeih neh a ming aka ming boeih loh anih te a suem uh tih, “Balae tih sarhi caitueng, boeimang cungkui khaw a paep,” ti uh laeh.
18 Come down from your glory; sit on parched ground, O daughter dwelling in Dibon, for the destroyer of Moab has come against you; he has destroyed your fortresses.
Dibon nu dongkah khosa rhoek aw thangpomnah dongkah khosak lamloh rhum lamtah tuihalh dongla ngol uh laeh. Moab aka rhoelrhak loh nang te m'paan vetih na hmuencak te a phae ni.
19 Stand by the road and watch, O dweller of Aroer! Ask the man fleeing or the woman escaping, ‘What has happened?’
Longpuei taengah pai lamtah Aroer khosa rhoek ke tawt ne. Aka rhaelrham pa neh aka loeih nu te dawt lamtah, “Balae aka om,” ti na uh.
20 Moab is put to shame, for it has been shattered. Wail and cry out! Declare by the Arnon that Moab is destroyed.
Moab khaw rhihyawp tih yak coeng. Rhung la, rhung lamtah pang khaw pang mai laeh. Moab a rhoelrhak te Arnon ah puen pah.
21 Judgment has come upon the high plain— upon Holon, Jahzah, and Mephaath,
Te dongah laitloeknah he tlangkol khohmuen la, Holon la, Jahzah neh Mephaath la,
22 upon Dibon, Nebo, and Beth-diblathaim,
Dibon la, Nebo la, Beth-diblathaim la,
23 upon Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul, and Beth-meon,
Kiriathaim la, Bethgamul neh Bethmeon la,
24 upon Kerioth, Bozrah, and all the towns of Moab, those far and near.
Kerioth la, Bozrah neh Moab khohmuen khopuei a yoei a hla boeih la pawk coeng.
25 The horn of Moab has been cut off, and his arm is broken,”
Moab ki ngun coeng tih a ban khaw khaem coeng. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
26 “Make him drunk, because he has magnified himself against the LORD; so Moab will wallow in his own vomit, and he will also become a laughingstock.
BOEIPA te a pantai thil dongah anih te rhuihmil sak. Te daengah ni Moab te a lok dongah kut a paeng vetih amah khaw nueihbu la a om eh.
27 Was not Israel your object of ridicule? Was he ever found among thieves? For whenever you speak of him you shake your head.
Israel khaw nang ham tah nueihbu la om het pawt nim? Na ol neh anih na hnet dingdoeng bangla hlanghuen lakli ah a hmuh khaw a hmuh a?
28 Abandon the towns and settle among the rocks, O dwellers of Moab! Be like a dove that nests at the mouth of a cave.
Moab khosa rhoek aw khopuei te hnoo uh lamtah thaelpang ah khosa uh. Rhalvangan kah rhom rhai ah butuk uh lamtah, vahui bangla om uh.
29 We have heard of Moab’s pomposity, his exceeding pride and conceit, his proud arrogance and haughtiness of heart.
Moab kah hoemdamnah neh thinthah pangkha la a oeknah neh a hoemdamnah khaw, a hoemnah neh a lungbuei buhuengpomnah khaw ka yaak uh coeng.
30 I know his insolence,” declares the LORD, “but it is futile. His boasting is as empty as his deeds.
Kai tah BOEIPA kah a thinpom olphong khaw ka ming dae a olsai tangloeng pawt tih a saii van moenih.
31 Therefore I will wail for Moab; I will cry out for all of Moab; I will moan for the men of Kir-heres.
Te dongah Moab ham ka rhung tangloeng coeng, Moab ham a pum la ka pang. Kirhareseth hlang ham a thuep.
32 I will weep for you, O vine of Sibmah, more than I weep for Jazer. Your tendrils have extended to the sea; they reach even to Jazer. The destroyer has descended on your summer fruit and grape harvest.
Jazer kah a rhah lakah Sibam misur nang ham ka rhap. Na baek te tuipuei la yam tih Jazer tuipuei duela a pha. Na khohal thaih neh na misurbit te aka rhoelrhak loh a cuhu sak.
33 Joy and gladness are removed from the orchard and from the fields of Moab. I have stopped the flow of wine from the presses; no one treads them with shouts of joy; their shouts are not for joy.
Kohoenah neh omngaihnah he cangphil cangngol lamkah, Moab khohmuen lamkah ni. Tedae khum coeng tih, va-am dongkah misurtui ka kak sak. Tamlung khaw tamlung pawt ah, tamlung neh neet boel saeh.
34 There is a cry from Heshbon to Elealeh; they raise their voices to Jahaz, from Zoar to Horonaim and Eglath-shelishiyah; for even the waters of Nimrim have dried up.
Heshbon lamkah a pang te Elealeh duela, Jahaz duela, Zoar lamloh vaito Horonaim duela a ol a huel uh. Nimrim tui khaw rhaerhap la om coeng.
35 In Moab, declares the LORD, I will bring an end to those who make offerings on the high places and burn incense to their gods.
He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Moab kah hmuensang ah aka pongpa tih a pathen taengah aka phum rhoek te ka kangkuen sak ni.
36 Therefore My heart laments like a flute for Moab; it laments like a flute for the men of Kir-heres, because the wealth they acquired has perished.
Te dongah ka lungbuei he Moab ham tah phitphoet bangla cai tih ka lungbuei he Kirhareseth hlang ham phitphoet bangla cai. Te dongah koeva a tung te paltham coeng.
37 For every head is shaved and every beard is clipped; on every hand is a gash, and around every waist is sackcloth.
A lu khaw boeih lungawng tih hmuimul khaw boeih a kuet uh. A kut hma khaw cungkuem tih, a cinghen ah tlamhni a yen.
38 On all the rooftops of Moab and in the public squares, everyone is mourning; for I have shattered Moab like an unwanted jar,”
Moab imphu tom neh a toltung tom ah a rhaengsae uh. Moab te a ngaih pawh hnopai bangla ka phaek coeng. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
39 “How shattered it is! How they wail! How Moab has turned his back in shame! Moab has become an object of ridicule and horror to all those around him.”
Rhihyawp tih rhung kanoek a? Moab loh rhawn a maelh te yak kanoek a? Te dongah Moab he nueihbu la, a kaepvai boeih te porhaknah la poeh.
40 For this is what the LORD says: “Behold, an eagle swoops down and spreads his wings against Moab.
He ni BOEIPA loh a thui. atha bangla ding tih Moab soah a phae a khuk.
41 Kirioth has been taken, and the strongholds seized. In that day the heart of Moab’s warriors will be like the heart of a woman in labor.
Kerioth te a tuuk vetih rhalmahim te a loh pah ni. Te khohnin ah tah Moab hlangrhalh lungbuei ah huta puencak kah lungbuei bangla om ni.
42 Moab will be destroyed as a nation because he vaunted himself against the LORD.
BOEIPA te a taloeh thil dongah Moab he pilnam lamloh mitmoeng ni.
43 Terror and pit and snare await you, O dweller of Moab,”
Moab khosa nang ham birhihnah rhom neh pael om coeng lah ko. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
44 “Whoever flees the panic will fall into the pit, and whoever climbs from the pit will be caught in the snare. For I will bring upon Moab the year of their punishment,”
Ngaihuet neh birhihnah hmai lamloh aka rhaelrham te rhom ah cungku ni. Rhom lamloh aka yoeng te khaw pael neh a boh ni. Moab loh a sokah a cawhnah kum te amah soah ka thoeng sak ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
45 “Those who flee will stand helpless in Heshbon’s shadow, because fire has gone forth from Heshbon and a flame from within Sihon. It devours the foreheads of Moab and the skulls of the sons of tumult.
Heshbon hlip ah aka pai te Heshbon lamkah hmai loh a coe thil tih thadueng om kolla rhaelrham coeng. Te vaengah Sihon laklo lamkah hmaisai loh Moab baengki neh longlonah ca rhoek kah luki te a hlawp pah.
46 Woe to you, O Moab! The people of Chemosh have perished; for your sons have been taken into exile and your daughters have gone into captivity.
Anunae Moab nang aih te, Khemosh kah pilnam tah milh coeng. Na ca rhoek te tamna la, na canu rhoek tamna la a khuen uh coeng.
47 Yet in the latter days I will restore Moab from captivity,” declares the LORD. Here ends the judgment on Moab.
Hmailong tue ah tah Moab thongtla te ka mael puei ni. BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. He hil he Moab ham laitloeknah coeng ni.
