Jeremias 21

1 THE WORD THAT CAME FROM THE LORD TO JEREMIAS, WHEN KING SEDEKIAS SENT TO HIM PASCHOR THE SON OF MELCHIAS, AND SOPHONIAS SON OF BASAEAS, THE PRIEST, SAYING,

Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar ni na tuk toe. BAWIPA ni a lentoenae hno ouk a sak e patetlah kabawp ngainae hah ban sak thai mahoeh namaw, tie hah BAWIPA koe na het pouh seh, telah dei pouh hanelah,

2 Enquire of the Lord for us; for the king of Babylon has risen up against us; if the Lord will do according to all his wonderful works, and [the king] shall depart from us.

siangpahrang Zedekiah ni Melhiah capa Pashhur hoi Maaseiah capa vaihma Zephaniah hah Jeremiah koevah a patoun. Hatnavah, Jeremiah koevah, BAWIPA e lawk ka phat e teh hettelah ao.

3 And Jeremias said to them, Thus shall ye say to Sedekias king of Juda,

Jeremiah ni, Zedekiah koevah, hettelah dei pouh awh.

4 Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I [will] turn back the weapons of war wherewith ye fight against the Chaldeans that have besieged you from outside the wall, and I will gather them into the midst of this city.

Isarel Cathut BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! Babilon siangpahrang hoi Khaldean tami rapan alawilah hoi na kavennaw, tarantuknae puengcang hoi ka ban sak han. Hahoi khopui thung vah, ahnimouh teh ka pâkhueng han.

5 And I will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, with wrath and great anger.

Kama roeroe ni ka lungkhueknae hoi ka lung a onae hoi ka lungphuennae kut hoi ka thaonae hoi ka tuk han.

6 And I will smite all the dwellers in this city, [both] men and cattle, with grievous pestilence: and they shall die.

Hie kho dawk kho ka sak e taminaw hoi saringnaw hah be ka thei vaiteh, takikathopounge lacik hoi a due awh han.

7 And after this, thus saith the Lord; I will give Sedekias king of Juda, and his servants, and the people that is left in this city from the pestilence, and from the famine, and from the sword, into the hands of their enemies, that seek their lives: and they shall cut them in pieces with the edge of the sword: I will not spare them, and I will not have compassion upon them.

Hahoi teh BAWIPA ni siangpahrang Zedekiah hoi a san, kho louk kaawm e lacik hoi tahloi hoi tangkhang hoi kahloutnaw hah Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar kut dawk thoseh, a tarannaw e kut dawk thoseh, thei hanelah katawngnaw kut dawk thoseh, ka poe vaiteh, kahranpoung e tahloi hoi a tuk awh han. Pahrennae tawn laipalah pâhlung mahoeh. Lungmanae hai tawn awh mahoeh telah ati.

8 And thou shalt say to this people, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I have set before you the way of life, and the way of death.

Hahoi tamimaya koevah na dei han, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Khenhaw! duenae lamthung hoi hringnae lamthung hah na hmalah ka hruek.

9 He that remains in this city shall die by the sword, and by famine: but he that goes forth to advance to the Chaldeans that have besieged you, shall live, and his life shall be to him for a spoil, and he shall live.

Hete khopui thung kaawm e pueng tahloi hoi thoseh, takang hoi thoseh, lacik hoi thoseh, a due awh han. Hateiteh, a tâco teh nangmouh ka ven e Khaldean taminaw koevah ka kâpoenaw dueng a hring awh han. A hringnae teh ahnimouh koe poe e phu lah ao han.

10 For I have set my face against this city for evil, and not for good: it shall be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he shall consume it with fire.

Hete khopui hawi nahanelah tho laipalah, a ro nahanelah ka noe e doeh toe. Babilon siangpahrang kut dawk poe lah ao vaiteh, ahni ni hmai hoi a sawi han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.

11 O house of the king of Juda, hear ye the word of the Lord.

Judah siangpahrang imthungnaw kong dawk BAWIPA e lawk hah thai awh haw.

12 O house of David, thus saith the Lord; Judge judgment in the morning, and act rightly, and rescue the spoiled one from the hand of him that wrongs him, lest mine anger be kindled like fire, and it burn, and there be none to quench [it].

Oe! Devit imthungnaw, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Hnintangkuem lawkkatang hoi lawkkâceng awh nateh, pacekpahlek e naw kut thung hoi hnephnap kâhmo e naw hah ngang awh, telah nahoeh pawiteh, ka lungkhueknae hah hmai patetlah tâcawt vaiteh, na yon kecu dawk apinihai padout thai laipalah a kak payon han doeh.

13 Behold, I am against thee that dwellest in the valley of Sor; in the plain country, [even against] them that say, Who shall alarm us? or who shall enter into our habitation?

Khenhaw! tanghling dawk kho kasaknaw, nangmouh tanghling dawk kho ka sak e apimaw kaimouh ka o nah koevah, ka kâen han katetnaw, na taran awh han telah BAWIPA ni a dei.

14 And I will kindle a fire in the forest thereof, and it shall devour all things round about it.

Hateiteh, na sakyoe e hoi kamcu lah ka rek awh han. Atu raw vah, ratu dawk hmai ka tâco sak vaiteh, a tengpam pueng koung a kak han telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
