Jeremiah 14
1 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the words of the drought.
Hiche hi, go-twi hahsat jeh’a, Jeremiah henga Pakai thusei hunglhung chu ahi.
2 “Judea has mourned. And its gates have fallen and become hard to discern on the ground. And the outcry of Jerusalem has ascended.
Judah alung hem in; Akhopi jousea mi athi athin, khopi kot jouse akikhah gamtai. Amite jouse tollhanga akijam’un, akap kap uve. Jerusalem mite panpi ngaicha a kanau ogin a kithonge.
3 The greater ones have sent their lesser ones to the water. They went to draw water; they did not find water; they carried their vessels back empty. They were confounded and afflicted, and so they covered their heads.
Milen milal hon, asohteu twi hol in asol un, ahinlah twikul leh twinah ho abon'in akang gamtai. Asohteuvin twila amijou pouvin, bel keovin akile kit un, a lungdon man’un ponlu akikhuh lo tauve.
4 Because of the devastation of the earth, because rain did not fall upon the earth, the farmers were confounded; they covered their heads.
Go ajuh tahlou jeh in, tol agotan apohkhi gamtai. Loubol ho jong alunggim behseh uvin, vetna ding helouvin aumtauvin ahi.
5 For even the doe has given birth in the field, and then left it behind. For there was no grass.
Gamlah a hamhing aumtapon, Sakhipin jong anou pengthah chu adalha jeng tai.
6 And the wild donkeys stood upon the rocks; like dragons, they drew in the wind, but their eyes failed. For there was no grass.”
Gam sangante jong lhangvum’a achailaiya ading leuvin, Ngei-hon te bang in hui ahop hel hol uve. Neh ding hamhing umlou, kel athoh thoh jeh un, amit uvin kho amugamtapoi.
7 “O Lord, if our iniquities have responded against us, let it be for the sake of your name. For our rebellions are many; we have sinned against you.
Kamite kahenga ahung taovun, Kachonset nau jouse ahung kilangdoh jengtai, Vo Pakai! Hijongle, nangma min suhminset’a aumlou nadin, nangman nabol ding chu boljeng inlang, keiho jong neilungset’un neipanpiuvin. Ajeh chu keiho nangma douna kachonse behseh tauve.
8 O Hope of Israel, its Savior in time of tribulation, why would you be like a sojourner in the land, and like a traveler turning aside for lodging?
O Pakai, Israel kinepna! Hahsat genthei nikhoa eipanpiu nangbou nahi, ibol’a namite lah’a kholgam mi banga naum ham? Ipi dinga maljin vahle, jankhat tou gehpa banga naum ham?
9 Why would you be like a wandering man, like a strong man who is unable to save? But you, O Lord, are with us, and your name is invoked over us, so do not abandon us!”
Ipi dinga nangma lungdong tah banga naum a, Thahat pen nahin, ima boljoulou banga naum hitam? O Pakai, nangma kalah uva naum jingin, keiho namite kahiuve. Donlouvin neikoi hih’un, atiuve,” ati!
10 Thus says the Lord to this people, who have loved to move their feet, and who have not rested, but who have not pleased the Lord: “Now he will remember their iniquities, and now he will visit against their sins.”
Chuin Pakaiyin a mite jah a hitin aseiye, “Nanghon keiya kon’a gamlatah’a jamdoh ding bou nadeiyun, chule nakitim jou pouve. Hijeh chun, nachunguva kalung alheipoi. Keiman na chonsetnau jouse ka geldoh jing ding, chule hiche ho jeh’a chu na chunguva talen kamatsah teiding nahiuve,” ati.
11 And the Lord said to me: “Do not choose to pray for this people for good.
Hichun Pakaiyin kajah’a, ‘Hiche mite ding in taoda tan,’ ati.
12 When they will fast, I will not heed their petitions. And if they offer holocausts and victims, I will not accept them. For I will consume them by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence.”
Amahon an ngol’u hen, kap jongleu, ataonau kasanpih louding: Pumgo thilto leh lhosoh thilto hinchoi jongleu, kasanpih loudiu ahi. Amaho chu, chemjam leh gilkel a chule natna hisea kasuh gamdiu ahi,” ati.
13 And I said: “Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God! The prophets are saying to them: ‘You will not see the sword, and there will be no famine among you. Instead, he will give you true peace in this place.’”
Chuphat in kenjong, “Vo Pakai Hatchungnung, vetan, athemgao houvin mipite jah’a “gamsung a cham leng ding, gal leh kel umlou ding, Pakaiyin cham leh lungmon thonlouva ahin lhunsah ding ahi, atibouve,” kati.
14 And the Lord said to me: “The prophets prophesy falsely in my name. I did not send them, and I did not instruct them, and I have not spoken to them. They prophesy to you a lying vision, and a divination, and a fraud, and a seduction from their own heart.
Hichun Pakaiyin ei donbut in, “Hiche themgao ho chun, kamin’a jouthu jeng agaovu ahi. Keiman amaho sol jong kasolpon, chule ahenguva thupeh jong kaneipoi. Gaothu aphon’u jong jou le nal’a mi lhepna-a, asemthu’u ahibouve.
15 For this reason, thus says the Lord about the prophets who prophesy in my name, whom I have not sent, who say: ‘Sword and famine will not be in this land.’ By sword and famine those prophets will be consumed.
Hijeh chun Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Jou le nal’a gaothu phong ho chu, keiman talen kamatsah tei ding ahi. Ajeh chu keima min in, gal le kel hung lhung lou ding ahi, atiuvin; Keiman amaho abonchauva gal le kel thoh’a kathigam sah dingu ahi.
16 And the people, to whom they prophesy, will be cast into the streets of Jerusalem, due to famine and the sword, and there will be no one who may bury them, they and their wives, their sons and daughters, and I will pour out their own evil upon them.
Chule amahon gaothu aseipih miho jong, gal le kel a, thigamdiu; Jerusalem kholai dunga atahsau chu kipaithang soh diu, avuidiu ding koima umlou ding ahi. Ajeh chu agitlounau jouse chu amaho chung’a kalebuh lhah khum diu, abonchauva ajiteu leh achateu pum’a mangthah gamdiu ahi.
17 And you shall speak this word to them: Let my eyes shed tears throughout the night and day, and let them not cease. For the virgin daughter of my people has been crushed by a great affliction, by a very grievous wound.”
Hichun Jeremiah in hitin aseiye, “Sun le jan in kamit lhi long long jeng hen, tangmo hel in kap inge. Ajeh chu, kamite melse tah in amachangun, thidingin natna athoh uve.
18 “If I go out into the fields: behold, those slain by the sword. And if I enter into the city: behold, those weakened by famine. Likewise, the prophet, too, and the priest, have gone into a land that they did not know.
Keima loujaova kaga chele, gal’a kithat thilong jeng katoh in: khopi sung a kalut leh kel lhah jeh’a, natna leh thina toh mipite kamun. Themgao hole thempuhon atoh ngaiyu atong un, ahinlah amahon ipi abol'u ahi, akihetdoh pouve, “ati.
19 Could you have utterly cast out Judah? Or has your soul abhorred Zion? Then why have you struck us, so much so that there is no health for us? We have waited for peace, but there is nothing good, and for the time of healing, and behold, trouble.
Vo Pakai Judah mite na pumpai hitam? Nangman Jerusalem mite nakidah’a nahot tah tah hitam? Ibol a hibang nasa-a neimavouva, keiho dinga boldamna phat umlou hitam? Keihon chamna muding kakinem’un, ahinlah chamna ahunglhung poi. Keihon damna ding nikho kangah un, ahivangin kichat tijatnan eilhunden jouve.
20 O Lord, we acknowledge our impieties, the iniquities of our fathers, that we have sinned against you.
Vo Pakai, keiholeh kapu kapateu chonset gitlouna ho jouse na-ang’ah kahin phonguve. Keiho kabonchauvin, nang dounan ka chonse tauve.
21 For the sake of your name, do not give us over into disgrace. And do not dishonor in us the throne of your glory. Remember, do not make void, your covenant with us.
Nangma min khohsah jallin, keiho nei paimang hih uvin, Na lengtouna loupitah chu, jabollouvin umsah hih in. Kachunguva nakitepna geldoh jing inlang, sukeh loujen in, Vo Pakai.
22 Could any of the graven images of the Gentiles send rain? Or are the heavens able to give showers? Have we not hoped in you, the Lord our God? For you have made all these things.”
Doilim semthu namdang ho pathen in go ajuhsah theiyem? Vanthamjol khun ama cham”a go ahin juh lhah sah theiyem? Vo Pakai, nangbou ka pathen’u nahin, thil ijakai bolthei chu nangma bou nahi. Hijeh’a chu keiho nangma-a kinem’a, neikithopinau ngahjing’a um kahiuve.
