Jeremiah 37
1 And Zedekiah, the son of Josiah, became king in place of Coniah, the son of Jehoiakim, whom Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, made king in the land of Judah.
Josiah chapa Zedekiah chu Jehoiakim chapa Coniah khel in, Judahte lengin apangtai. Amahiabbylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar in apansah ahi.
2 But he and his servants and the people of the land did not give ear to the words of the Lord which he said by Jeremiah the prophet.
Ahinlah, Zedekiah lengpa ahin, ama sohte ahiuvin chule gamsung mite ahiuvin, Pakaiyin Jeremiah mangcha-a thu ahinsei ho chu, ngai nahsah in aneipouve.
3 And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal, the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah, the son of Maaseiah the priest, to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Make prayer now to the Lord our God for us.
Ahijeng vang chun, Zedekiah lengpan, Shelemiah chapa Jehucal leh Maaseiah chapa Zephaniah thempupa chu Jeremiah henga asol in, “Keiho din, Pakai i-Pathen’u henga, neitaopih un,” agatisah in ahi.
4 (Now Jeremiah was going about among the people, for they had not put him in prison.
Hichepet a chun, Jeremiah jong songkul'a kihen loulai ahin, mipi lah’a anop nop in achele avahle nalaiye.
5 And Pharaoh's army had come out from Egypt: and the Chaldaeans, who were attacking Jerusalem, hearing news of them, went away from Jerusalem.)
Hichun, Pharaoh sepaite Egypt gam’a pat in, Judah gam lhanglam’a ahungdoh uve, tithu, Babylon sepaite, Jerusalem a kon’in akinung tol kittauve.
6 Then the word of the Lord came to the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
Chujouvin, Pakai thusei Jeremiah heng ahunglhung in.
7 The Lord, the God of Israel, has said: This is what you are to say to the king of Judah who sent you to get directions from me: See, Pharaoh's army, which has come out to your help, will go back to Egypt, to their land.
Pakai Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye: Judah lengpa chun, ipi hungsoh ding ham, tithu donga kahenga nahinsol ahi. Ama chu seipeh un, napanpi dinga hungkondoh Pharaoh sepaite chu, amaho chamtah a Egypt gam’a kilekit diu ahitai.
8 And the Chaldaeans will come back again and make war against this town and they will take it and put it on fire.
Chuteng Babylon sepaite hung kinungle kitdiu, chule hiche khopihi alah uva meiya agovam diu ahi.
9 The Lord has said, Have no false hopes, saying to yourselves, The Chaldaeans will go away from us: for they will not go away.
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye; Nangho leh nangho kilhem lhauvin lang, Babylon mite sepia hochun, eihoa kon’a kitolmang kei ahitauve, tidauvin. Amaho akitolmang pouve.
10 For even if you had overcome all the army of the Chaldaeans fighting against you, and there were only wounded men among them, still they would get up, every man in his tent, and put this town on fire.
Ijeh inem itileh, nanghon Babylon sepaite chu apumpiuva najo heldiu hijongle, chule akisukha maha poho bou hing dohdiu hijongle, amaho chu hung kipan untin, hiche khopihi meiya agovam diu ahi, tin seipih in, ati.
11 And it came about that when the Chaldaean army outside Jerusalem had gone away for fear of Pharaoh's army,
Pharaoh sepaite ahungkon uve, ti ajah phat un, Babylon mite sepaiho chun Jerusalem adalhauvin, akitoldoh tauve.
12 Jeremiah went out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, with the purpose of taking up his heritage there among the people.
Chuin Jeremiah injong Jerusalem adalhan, asopite toh gou kihom’a ama chan kilah dingin, Benjamin gamsung ajontai.
13 But when he was at the Benjamin door, a captain of the watch named Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah, who was stationed there, put his hand on Jeremiah the prophet, saying, You are going to give yourself up to the Chaldaeans.
Ahinla, aman Benjaminkelkot phung ajotpa-a achepet in, kelkot ngahpan ama chu aman in; ajah’a, nanghi Babylon mite henga jamlut go nahim, atin ahentai. Hichea kotngah mimanpa chu Hananiah tupa Shelemiah chapa Irijah ahi.
14 Then Jeremiah said, That is not true; I am not going to the Chaldaeans. But he would not give ear to him: so Irijah made him prisoner and took him to the rulers.
Ahinla Jeremiah in, “Neingohna chu jouthu ahibouve. Keiman hitobang chu kagel hih hel e,” ati. Ahivangin Irijah chun Jeremiah thusei chu angai pihpon, vaipo ho angsunga akailuttai.
15 And the rulers were angry with Jeremiah, and gave him blows and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe: for they had made that the prison.
Amahon Jeremiah chu havoh in avouvin, chujouvin lekhasunpa Jonathan insunga chun ahentauve. Jonathan in chu songkul'a asemdoh u ahitai.
16 So Jeremiah came into the hole of the prison, under the arches, and was there for a long time.
Chuin Jeremiah chu songkul'a akhum un, hichea chun nikho sotpi aumdentan ahitai.
17 Then King Zedekiah sent and got him out: and the king, questioning him secretly in his house, said, Is there any word from the Lord? And Jeremiah said, There is. Then he said, You will be given up into the hands of the king of Babylon.
Chujouvin Zedekiah lengpan, Jeremiah akouvin guhthim in mi asol in, agakou sah in, leng inpia akimupi in ahi. Hichun lengpan ajah’a, “Pakaiya kon’a thu hunglhung um am?” ati. Jeremiah in adonbut in, “Henge aum e. Nangma hi Babylon lengpa khut a kipedoh nahitai,” ati.
18 Then Jeremiah said to King Zedekiah, What has been my sin against you or against your servants or against this people, that you have put me in prison?
Chuin Jeremiah in lengpa jah’a, “Keiman ipi adihlou kabol am? Ipi nang douna leh nalhachate douna chule mipite douna kabolkhah um am? Ibol a songkul’a neihen jeng ham?
19 Where now are your prophets who said to you, The king of Babylon will not come against you and against this land?
Nahenga, Babylon lengpa sepaiten nangma douna leh hiche gamsung douna gal bl in, hungkon ponte, tia gaothu sei nathemgao ho chu, tua hoiya umgam’u hitam?
20 And now be pleased to give ear, O my lord the king; let my prayer for help come before you, and do not make me go back to the house of Jonathan the scribe, for fear that I may come to my death there.
Vo kapu lengpa, ngaitem in nakom’a katao ahi. Hiche songkul'a kisem Jonathan in-a khun, neisol kit hih beh in. Ajeh chu kache kitleh kathiden teitei ding, ati.
21 Then by the order of Zedekiah the king, Jeremiah was put into the place of the armed watchmen, and they gave him every day a cake of bread from the street of the bread-makers, till all the bread in the town was used up. So Jeremiah was kept in the place of the armed watchmen.
Hijeh chun, Zedekiah lengpan thu apen, Jeremiah chu songkul'a solkit talouvin, leng inpi ngahpa insunga aumsah tauve. Chule lengpa thupeh bangin, khopi sunga changlhah abei kahsen, niseh in changlhah in avah’un, leng inpi in-ngahpa insunga chun ama jong aumdentai.
