Jeremiah 44
1 The word that came through Jeremiah to all the Jews who were living in the land of Egypt, living at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Memphis, and in the land of Pathros, saying:
Egypt sahlam gamsunga Migdol, Tahpanhes, Memphis khopi ho leh lhanglam gam’a cheng Judah miho thudol’a, Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga thu ahinseiye.
2 “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: You yourselves have seen all this evil that I have led over Jerusalem and over all the cities of Judah. And behold, they are desolate to this day, and there is no inhabitant in them,
“Thaneipen Pakai Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye,” Jerusalem leh Judah gamsung khopi jouse chunga manthahna kalhunsah chu, nanghon namittah uva namu-u ahitai. Tugeiyin ahomkeovin aum un, koima achengpoi.
3 because of the wickedness which they have done, so that they provoked me to wrath, and because they went to offer sacrifice and worship to strange gods, which neither they, nor you, nor your fathers knew.
Amahon thilse tintang abol uvin, keima eiphin lunghang uve. Gimnamtwi ahal uvin, amahon ahetkhahlou chule apu apateu jong anahetkhah lou, pathen chom chom anga kilhaina abol'uve.
4 And I sent to you all my servants, the prophets, rising in the night, and sending, and saying: ‘Do not choose to do this abominable word, which I hate.’
Keiman avel vel in kalhachate themgao ho kasol in, ajah uva, hitobang thilse kahot tah hi bol hih un, tin kaseipeh e.
5 But they did not listen, nor did they incline their ear, so that they would convert from their evil, and so that they would not sacrifice to strange gods.
Ahivangin, amahon kathusei angaipouvin, chule athilse bol’u jong adalha deh pouve. Amahon pathen chom chom houna gimnamtwi ahaljing uvin ahi.
6 And so my indignation and my fury was fanned and kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. And they have been turned into desolation and devastation, just as it is this day.
Hijeh a chu, keiman kalungsatna meikou kisunglha banga Judah gamsung khopi jouse chunga, kasunlhah khum ahiuve. Tuni geiyin, hiche khopi ho chu ahomkeovin, mi chenna louvin akijam nalaiye.
7 And now, thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Why do you commit this great evil against your own souls, so that, among you, man and woman, child and infant would pass away from the midst of Judah, and so that no remnant at all would be left behind of you?
Tun thaneipen Pakai Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye. Ibol a nangho leh nangho thilse kibolkhum jeng nahiuvem? Nangho asohcha naumlou heldiu, pasal jong, numei jong, chapang jong, Judah gam’a kon’a hilaiya hung chengho jouse, nabonchauva chunga manthahna kilhut khum’a, khatbeh jong ahingdoh umlou ding nahiuve.
8 For you have provoked me by the works of your hands, by sacrificing to strange gods in the land of Egypt, into which you have entered in order to live there, and so that you would perish and become a curse and a disgrace before all the nations of the earth.
Ibol a nanghon Egypt pathen chom chom doilim ho nakisem thu-uva, a-anga gimnamtwi nahal uva, keima neiphin lunghang’u ham? Nangho le nangho kisumang thah a chule leiset namtin vaipi lah a nuisat leh gaosap change naum dingu ahi.
9 How could you have forgotten the evils of your fathers, and the evils of the kings of Judah, and the evils of their wives, and your own evils, and the evils of your own wives, which they have done in the land of Judah and in the regions of Jerusalem?
Nanghon Jerusalem leh Judah gamsunga, napu napateu phatlouna ho, Judah lengte gitlouna ho, chule nangho leh najiteu setna ho, ibol a nasuhmil u ham?
10 They have not been cleansed, even to this day. And they have not feared, and they have not walked in the law of the Lord and in my precepts, which I have given before you and before your fathers.
Tuni geiyin, nanghon lung kisih a kisemphat ding nagopouve. Nangho le napu napateu kathupehsa ho, nanghon juiding nagel pouve.
11 For this reason, thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will set my face upon you for evil. And I will disperse all of Judah.
Hijeh chun thaneipen Pakai Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye, keiman nangho nabonchauva kasuhgam ding nahiuve.
12 And I will take the remnant of Judah, who had set their faces so that they would enter into the land of Egypt and live there, and they will all be consumed in the land of Egypt. They will fall by the sword and by famine. And they will be consumed, from the least, even to the greatest. By sword and by famine shall they die. And they will be an oath, and a wonder, and a curse, and a disgrace.
Keiman Judah mite akidalha amoh chengse, Egypt gamsunga hunglut ho, abonchauva kasuhgam heldiu ahi. Amaho chu aneopen’a pat alenpen geiya: gal a thiloi, kelthoh a thiloi, chule natna hise a thiloi umdiu, abonchauva thigam heldiu ahi. Amaho chu gaosap chang leh kidah um chule mi nuisat a umdiu, ahiuve.
13 And I will visit against those who are living in the land of Egypt, just as I have visited against Jerusalem: with the sword, and with famine, and with pestilence.
Keiman Jerusalem talen kamatsah banga, Egypt gamsung’a jong amaho chunga, gal kisat, kellhah chule natna hise a, talen kamatsah ding ahiuve.
14 And there will be no one who escapes, of those who remain among the remnant of the Jews, those who have gone to sojourn in the land of Egypt. And they wish to be returned to the land of Judah, for they lift up their souls so that they might return and live there. But there will be no one who may return, except those who will flee.”
Dalhah a um amoh cheng, Egypt gam’a hung juamlut ho, khatvei Judah gam’a kilekit ding ngah ho, koimacha asohcha-a kilekit umlou hel diu ahi. Amahon agam uva kilekal ngahlel ujongle, ahingdoh themchakhat bou tilou, koima cha kilekit umlou ding ahiuve,” ati.
15 Then all the men, knowing that their wives were sacrificing to strange gods, and all of the women, a great multitude of whom were standing there, and all of the people who were living in the land of Egypt at Pathros, responded to Jeremiah, by saying:
Hichun ajiteuvin milimdoi houna gimnamtwi hal uve, ti hesa pasal ho jouse leh, Egypt gamsunga cheng Judah mite khoppi bol mitamtah lah’a, gapang numeiho jouse chun, Jeremiah jah’a aseiyun,
16 “Concerning the word that you have spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we will not heed you.
Nangman Pakai min’a nathusei ho chu, keihon ngai pouvinge, atiuve.
17 But we will continue to do every word which proceeds from our own mouth, so that we sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and we pour out libations to her, just as we and our fathers have done, our kings and our leaders, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. For we were filled with bread, and it was well with us, and we saw no evil.
Keiho kanop nop’u bol dinga um kahitauve. Keiho le kapu kapateuvin, chule kalengteu leh avaihom teuvin Judah gamsung le Jerusalem khopi sunga anabol bang uva chu, keihon jong van lengnu houna-a gimnamtwi kahal uva chule juning kalhit khum diu ahi. Ajeh chu, hitia kabol laiya chun, keiho din neh le chah aneng jeng jungin, kaphatou lheh un, chule thilse ima jong katoh pouve.
18 But since the time that we ceased to offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out libations to her, we have been in need of all things, and we have been consumed by the sword and by famine.
Ahinlah keihon van lengnu houna gimnamtwi kahaldauva, chule juning kalhitda phat un, keihon gentheina nasatah kathoh un, gal in eikithat uvin chule kalthoh in kathigam tauve, atiuvin ahi.
19 But when we offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven and pour out libations to her, do we make cakes for her worship and offer libations to her without our husbands?”
Chule numeiho chun aseikit un, “Keihon van lengnu houna-a kahal uva chule juning kalhit khum uva, chule amanu lim’a changlhah kasem uhi, kajipateu hetlouva, amaho phalna louva kasem beh u ham? Ahipoi! atiuvin ahi.
20 And Jeremiah spoke to all the people, facing the men, and facing the women, and facing all the people who had responded this word to him, saying:
Hichun Jeremiah in, numeiho leh pasal ho chule mipiho jah’a chun,
21 “Was this not the sacrifice that you offered in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers, your kings and your leaders, and the people of the land, which has been called to mind by the Lord and which has entered into his heart?
“Nangho leh napu napateuvin, chule nalengteu leh gamvaipo ten, Judah gamsung le Jerusalem khopi sunga milimdoi houna gimnamtwi nahal u chu, Pakaiyin ageldoh lou mong dinga nagel u ham?
22 And the Lord could no longer bear this, because of the evil of your intentions, and because of the abominations that you have done. And so, your land has become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, and it is without an inhabitant, even to this day.
Nanghon kidah umtah thilse nabol hou chu, Pakaiyin athoh nomtah louphat a, aman nagam sungu le nakhopi hou abon’a ahomkeova ajam’a, mi acheng ding beikeiya gaosap chang ahitai,” ati.
23 This is because you have sacrificed to idols, and you have sinned against the Lord. And you have not heeded the voice of the Lord, and you have not walked in his law, and in his precepts, and in his testimonies. It is for this reason that these evils have happened to you, just as it is today.”
“Thilse hichengpi nachunguva alhun hi, nanghon milim doi houna gimnamtwi nahal uva chule Pakai douna nachonset jeh u ahi. Chule nanghon ama thusei nangai dauva chule athupeh najuilou jeh uva, nachunguva thu atankhum ahitai,” ati.
24 Then Jeremiah said to all the people and to all the women: “Listen to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who are in the land of Egypt:
Chuin Jeremiah in mipiho jouse leh numeiho jah a chun, “Egypt gamsunga cheng Judah miho nabonchauvin hiche Pakai thusei hi nagiyuvin,
25 Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying: You and your wives have spoken it with your mouth, and have fulfilled it with your hands, saying: ‘Let us perform our vows that we have made, so that we may offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and pour out libations to her.’ You have fulfilled your vows and accomplished their works.
Thaneipen Pakai Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye, Nangho leh najiteu numeihon naseiyun, keihon kakitepnau banga, van lengnu houna gimnamtwi kahaldiu chule juning kalhit khum diu ahi, natiuvin; Nasei bangun nakhut tah uvin namoldo tauve. Hijeh chun naseisa bangun cheuvin gabol tauvin,” ati.
26 Because of this, listen to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah, who live in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by my great name, says the Lord, that my name will never again be invoked by the mouth of any man of Judah in the land of Egypt, saying: ‘As the Lord God lives.’
Amavang Judah mite Egypt gamsunga chenghon Pakai thusei hi ngaiyun. Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, keiman kamin’a huneitah a kaki hahsel ahitai. Nanghon kamin naphahtah louhel diu; Nalah uva koimachan jong kamin pan’a nakihahsel tahlou heldiu ahi, tin thaneipen hingjing Pakaiyin aseiye.
27 Behold, I will be vigilant over them for harm, and not for good. And all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt will be consumed, by the sword and by famine, until they are thoroughly consumed.
Ajeh chu keiman nangho kavet lhih a, nachunguva thilse kalhunsah ding, apha nato louhel diu ahi. Judah mite nabonchauva nathigam hel kah uva, gal a nathi dingu chule kelthoh a nathi diu ahi.
28 And a few men, who will flee from the sword, will return from the land of Egypt into the land of Judah. And all the remnant of Judah, who had entered into the land of Egypt so as to live there, will know whose word will be completed, mine or theirs.
Mi themcha khat athimoh chengse chu Egypt gam’a kon’a hung jamdohuva Judah gam’a hung kile diu ahiuve. Chuteng tahle ahingdoh chengsen koi thusei dihjo ham, ti ahetchen diu ahi.
29 And this will be a sign to you, says the Lord, that I will visit against you in this place, so that truly you may know that my words will be completed against you for harm.”
Chule Pakaiyin aseiye, Hichehi nangho dinga thudih melchihna-a kapeh chu ahi. Keiman nangho kagihsa banga nachunguva lhungding, chule hilaimun’a hi keiman nangho talen kamatsah ding nahiuve.
30 Thus says the Lord: “Behold, I will deliver Pharaoh Hophra, the king of Egypt, into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those who are seeking his life, just as I delivered Zedekiah, the king of Judah, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, his enemy and the one who was seeking his life.”
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, Keiman Judah lengpa Zedekiah chu akidoupi Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar khut a kapehdoh banga, Egypt lengpa Pharaoh Hophra chu, ama thatnom’a hol ho khut’a kapeh doh ding ahi,” ati.
