< Jeremias 22 >
1 Thus saith the Lord; Go thou, and go down to the house of the king of Juda, and thou shalt speak there this word,
He ni BOEIPA loh a thui. Judah manghai im ah cet lamtah he ol he pahoi thui pah.
2 and thou shalt say, Hear the word of the Lord, O king of Juda, that sittest on the throne of David, thou, and thy house, and thy people, and they that go in at these gates:
Te vaengah, “David ngolkhoel ah aka ngol Judah manghai nang neh, na sal rhoek, he vongka longah aka pawk na pilnam loh BOEIPA ol hnatun uh,’ ti nah.
3 thus saith the Lord; Execute ye judgment and justice, and rescue the spoiled out of the hand of him that wrongs him: and oppress not the stranger, and orphan, and widow, and sin not, and shed no innocent blood in this place.
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Tiktamnah neh duengnah te saii lamtah haemtaekkung kut lamkah a rheth rhoek te huul laeh. Yinlai cadah neh nuhmai te vuelvaek boel lamtah huet boeh. He hmuen ah ommongsitoe thii te long sak boeh.
4 For if ye will indeed perform this word, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, and riding on chariots and horses, they, and their servants, and their people.
He kah ol he na vai rhoe na vai van daengah ni David kah a ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol manghai rhoek khaw, leng dong neh a marhang dongah aka ngol a sal khaw, a sal rhoek neh a pilnam khaw he im vongka lamloh a pongpa eh.
5 But if ye will not perform these words, by myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, that this house shall be [brought] to desolation.
Tedae he ol he na ngai pawt atah kamah loh BOEIPA kah olphong neh ka toemngam coeng dongah he im he imrhong la poeh ni.
6 For thus saith the Lord concerning the house of the king of Juda; Thou art Galaad to me, [and] the head of Libanus: [yet] surely I will make thee a desert, [even] cities that shall not be inhabited:
Te dongah BOEIPA loh Gilead kah Judah manghai im te a thui. Nang tah kai taengah Lebanon som bangla na om cakhaw nang te khopuei khosoek la ka khueh pawt vetih khosa rhoek loh khosa uh mahpawt nim?
7 and I will bring upon thee a destroying man, and his axe: and they shall cut down thy choice cedars, and cast [them] into the fire.
Nang te hlang kutyook la kang hoep vetih a hnopai neh na lamphai thinghloe te a vung phoeiah hmai khuila a voeih ni.
8 And nations shall pass through this city, and each shall say to his neighbour, Why has the Lord done thus to this great city?
He khopuei te namtom loh muep a poeng vaengah hlang loh a hui taengah, “Balae tih BOEIPA loh he khopuei tanglue taengah he he a saii?” a ti uh ni.
9 And they shall say, Because they forsook the covenant of the Lord their God, and worshipped strange gods, and served them.
Te vaengah, “A Pathen BOEIPA kah paipi te a hnoo uh tih pathen tloe te a bawk uh, amih taengla tho a thueng uh dongah,” a ti uh ni.
10 Weep not for the dead, nor lament for him: weep bitterly for him that goes away: for he shall return no more, nor see his native land.
Aka duek ham te rhap uh boel lamtah anih te suem uh boeh. Aka cet ham te rhap lammah rhap uh. Koep ha mael hae pawt vetih a pacaboeina kah khohmuen te hmu voel mahpawh.
11 For thus saith the Lord concerning Sellem the son of Josias, who reigns in the place of Josias his father, who has gone forth out of this place; He shall not return thither any more:
He tah a napa Josiah yueng la aka manghai, Judah manghai Josiah capa Shallum kawng ni BOEIPA loh a thui. Anih tah he hmuen lamloh nong coeng tih he la koep ha pawk voel mahpawh.
12 but in that place whither I have carried him captive, there shall he die, and shall see this land no more.
Tedae te hmuen ah anih te a poelyoe uh vetih pahoi duek ni. Te vaengah he khohmuen he hmu voel mahpawh.
13 He that builds his house not with justice, and his upper chambers not with judgment, who works by means of his neighbour for nothing, and will by no means give him his reward.
Anunae a im aka thoh khaw duengnah nen moenih. Te dongah a imhman khaw tiktamnah neh om pawh. A hui te a hoeihae la thotat tih anih te a bisai pang pae pawh.
14 Thou hast built for thyself a well-proportioned house, airy chambers, fitted with windows, and wainscoted with cedar, and painted with vermilion.
Kamah ham im len ka thoh eh aka ti tih imhman aka hoengpoek sak loh amah ham tah bangbuet te a buet phoeiah lamphai neh a ci tih pangcik neh a koelh.
15 Shalt thou reign, because thou art provoked with thy father Achaz? they shall not eat, and they shall not drink: it is better for thee to execute judgment and justice.
Nang na manghai dongah nim na pa kah lamphai dongah a lungoe. A caak tih a ok moenih a? Duengnah neh tiktamnah a saii dongah maco anih ham a then tangloeng te.
16 They understood not, they judged not the cause of the afflicted, nor the cause of the poor: is not this thy not knowing me? saith the Lord.
Mangdaeng neh khodaeng kah dumlai dongah a laitloek then tangloeng. Te khaw kamah kah mingnah moenih a? He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
17 Behold, thine eyes are not good, nor thine heart, but [they go] after thy covetousness, and after the innocent blood to shed it, and after acts of injustice and slaughter, to commit them.
Na mik neh na lungbuei om pawt tih ommongsitoe thii long sak ham dongah, hnaemtaeknah dongah, phaepnah saii ham bueng ni na mueluemnah te.
18 Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning Joakim son of Josias, king of Juda, even concerning this man; they shall not bewail him, [saying], Ah brother! neither shall they at all weep for him, [saying], Alas Lord.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Judah manghai Josiah capa Jehoiakim kawng dongah anih te rhaengsae uh mahpawh. Anunae ka manuca neh anunae ka ngannu aih anih te rhaengsae uh mahpawh. Anunae boeipa neh anunae a mueithennah aih.
19 He shall be buried with the burial of an ass; he shall be dragged roughly along and cast outside the gate of Jerusalem.
Jerusalem vongka kah a voel la voeih ham a sol vetih laak kah phuel ah a up ni.
20 Go up to Libanus, and cry; and utter thy voice to Basan, and cry aloud to the extremity of the sea: for all thy lovers are destroyed.
Lebanon la cet lamtah pang lah. Bashan ah na ol huel lamtah Abarim lamloh pang laeh. Na lungnah boeih khaw khaem uh coeng.
21 I spoke to thee on [occasion of] thy trespass, but thou saidst, I will not hearken. This [has been] thy way from thy youth, thou hast not hearkened to my voice.
Na ommongnah khuiah nang te kan thui coeng dae, “Ka hnatun mahpawh,” na ti. Ka ol na hnatun pawt khaw na camoe lamkah na longpuei rhoe ni he.
22 The wind shall tend all thy shepherds, and thy lovers shall go into captivity; for then shalt thou be ashamed and disgraced because of all thy lovers.
Nang aka dawn boeih khaw khohli loh a luem puei vetih nang aka lungnah te tamna la cet uh ni. Te vaengah na yak uh vetih na boethae cungkuem dongah na hmaithae uh ni.
23 O thou that dwellest in Libanus, making thy nest in the cedars, thou shalt groan heavily, when pangs as of a travailing woman are come upon thee.
Lebanon kah khosa rhoek, lamphai dongah bubuk rhoek, tharhui bungtloh ca om bangla nang soah ha pawk vaengah metlam nim na huei ve.
24 [As] I live, saith the Lord, though Jechonias son of Joakim king of Juda were indeed the seal upon my right hand, thence would I pluck thee;
Kai hingnah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Judah manghai Jehoiakim capa Koniah pataeng ka bantang kut dongkah kutbuen la om ngawn cakhaw te lamloh te nang kan dul coeng.
25 and I will deliver thee into the hands of them that seek thy life, before whom thou art afraid, into the hands of the Chaldeans.
Na hinglu aka toem kut neh nang loh na rhih kut dongah nang te kan tloeng ni. Amih mikhmuh ah Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar kut neh Khalden kut ah kan tloeng ni.
26 And I will cast forth thee, and thy mother that bore thee, into a land where thou wast not born; and there ye shall die.
Namah neh nang aka cun na nu te khaw kho tloe la kang hut vetih na thaang pawt nah ah te pahoi na duek ni.
27 But they shall by no means return to the land which they long for in their souls.
Te khohmuen la a hinglu aka khuen rhoek tah mael ham akhaw na mael uh voel mahpawh.
28 Jechonias is dishonoured as a good-for-nothing vessel; for he is thrown out and cast forth into a land which he knew not.
Koniah hlang phop kah a hnaep he patangnah ni nama? Anih ham hnopai khaw a ngaih moenih. Balae tih amah neh a tiingan rhoek khaw a hut vetih ming pawt kho la a voeih eh?
29 Land, land, hear the word of the Lord.
Khohmuen, Khohmuen, khohmuen oeh! BOEIPA ol he hnatun laeh.
30 Write ye this man an outcast: for there shall none of his seed at all grow up to sit on the throne of David, [or as] a prince yet in Juda.
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. He kah hlang he cakol hlang la daek laeh. Amah tue vaengah thaihtak pawt vetih a tiingan lamkah khaw thaihtak mahpawh. David ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol hlang neh Judah khuiah koep aka taemrhai khaw om mahpawh.
