< Jeremiah 13 >
1 Thus said Jehovah unto me: Go and buy thee a linen girdle, and put it upon thy loins; but dip it not in water.
Pakaiyin kaheng’a hitin aseiye, “Chen lang taigah pon, tupat ponnem khat gachon lang, kigah in. Chule hichu twiya nasoplou ding ahi,” ati.
2 And I bought a girdle according to the word of Jehovah, and put it upon my loins.
Hijeh chun, Pakaiyin athusah dungjuiyin, kenjong taigah pon kagachon kakigahtai.
3 And the word of Jehovah came unto me the second time, saying,
Chujouvin Pakaiyin kahenga thu ahinseikit in,
4 Take the girdle that thou hast bought, which is upon thy loins, and arise, go to the Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the rock.
Nataigah pon chu kichoiyin lang, Ephrates vadung a chen. Chukom’a songpi khikah’a chun nathil chu gaselmang tan ati.
5 So I went and hid it by the Euphrates, as Jehovah had commanded me.
Hichun keiman, Pakai thupeh dungjuijin Ephrates vadunga kachen, kagasel mangtai.
6 And it came to pass at the end of many days, that Jehovah said unto me, Arise, go to the Euphrates, and take the girdle from thence which I commanded thee to hide there.
Chujou, nikho tamtah jouvin, Pakaiyin kahenga thu ahinseikit in, “Ephrates vadunga chekit inlang na taigah pon kaselmang sah chu, gakilah kittan,” ati.
7 And I went to the Euphrates, and digged, and took the girdle from the place where I had hid it; and behold, the girdle was spoiled, it was good for nothing.
Chuin keima Ephrates vadunga kachen, taigah pon kasel chu kagakhot doh kittai. Amavang, hiche taigah pon chu, amon in anase gam heltai. Taigah pon chu, imacha-a apanna ding aumtapoi.
8 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
Chuin Pakaiya konin, kahenga thu ahunglhungin,
9 Thus saith Jehovah: After this manner will I spoil the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.
“Hiche hi Pakai kamsoh chu ahi, keiman Judah leh Jerusalem mite kithang-at nachu, hitobanga hi kasuhset pihding ahi.”
10 This evil people, who refuse to hear my words, who walk in the stubbornness of their heart, and go after other gods, to serve them and to worship them, shall even be as this girdle which is good for nothing.
Hiche migiloute hin, kathusei angaipouvin, louchal tah in achon un, ama ama cheh lung ngaichat abol'un, chule semthu pathen ahouvun ahi. Hijeh’a chu, amahohi taigah pon banga chu, phatchomna beihel ahitauve.
11 For as a girdle cleaveth to the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah, saith Jehovah; that they might be unto me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.
Ijeh inem itileh, taigah pon mihem taibuh a akiveiden banga, Judah leh Israel mite chu, keima chunga kiveiden jeng dinga kasem ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye. Hitia chu, amaho kamite hiuva, keidinga loupina leh eikivahchoina thei hidiu ahin; Hinlah amahon kathusei angaidehji pouvin ahi.
12 And thou shalt speak unto them this word: Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, Every skin shall be filled with wine. And they will say unto thee, Do we not very well know that every skin shall be filled with wine?
Hiche thuhi nangman amaho hetsah in, Pakai Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye, “Hai jousea lengpitwi nathaldim soh keidiu ahi,” ati. Chutengle amahon najah’a, “Hai jousea lengpitwi thaldim sohkei ding chu, keihon kahetlouvu ham? “atidiu ahi.
13 And thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, and the kings that sit for David upon his throne, and the priests and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
Chutengle nangin amaho jah’a, Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, tin. “Ven hiche gamsung mite jouse: David laltouna-a tou lengho a pat thempuho, chule themgao ho, chule Jerusalem a chengho jouse, abonuva khamnathei gu-twi ka donkhamsah soh hel dingu ahi.
14 And I will dash them one against another, both the fathers and the sons together, saith Jehovah; I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy so as not to destroy them.
Keiman amaho, khat le khat katato ding, mipate le chapate jong katato ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye. Hitia chu, amaho suhmang louna dinga, achunguva hepina le lainatsah pihna, kaneilou hel ding ahi, ati.
15 Hear ye, and give ear, be not lifted up; for Jehovah hath spoken.
Thu kasei ngaiyun lang, nanakhang’u hindo cheh’un. Kiletsah hoitho bol hih un. Ajeh chu Pakaiyin thu aseitai.
16 Give glory to Jehovah your God, before he cause darkness, and before your feet stumble upon the mountains of twilight; and ye shall look for light, but he will turn it into the shadow of death, and make [it] gross darkness.
Phat ageisang masang in, Pakai na Pathen chu loupi sah un. Aman muthim ahin lhunsah masang, molsang laiya nakipal lhuh masang. Muthim lhangkhal gimneitah akiheh sah’a, khovah ngaicha geova naum masangun.
17 And if ye will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret places for [your] pride; and mine eye shall weep sore, and run down with tears, because Jehovah's flock is gone into captivity.
Nanghon hichea jong, Pakai thusei nangailou uleh, nakiletsah hoitho jal uva, keima kachanga kaka ding ahi. Keima mitlhi long chut chut a kaka ding; Ajeh chu Pakai mite abonchauva sohchanga kikaimang diu ahitai.
18 Say unto the king and to the queen: Humble yourselves, sit down low; for from your heads shall come down the crown of your magnificence.
Lengpa leh lengnu kom’a seipih un. “Na laltouna’a kon in hung kumlha lhon in, tollhanga toulhon in. Ajeh chu, na loupina lallukhuh chu nalua kon’a kilamang ding ahitai,” ati.
19 The cities of the south are shut up, and there is none to open [them]; all Judah is carried away captive: it is wholly carried away captive.
Negev gam’a khopi jouse kot akikhah sohtan, koima ahongdoh ding aumpoi. Judah mite jouse sohchanga kikaimang ta, Chuleh gamsung mijouse sohchanga kikaimang ahitauve.
20 Lift up your eyes, and behold them that come from the north. Where is the flock that was given thee, thy beautiful flock?
khodah in lang vetem un, sahlam gam’a kon’a hung kitolsuh galmi ho khu. Nangma nakipesa, na kelngoi hon ho chu, hoiya um hitam?
21 What wilt thou say when he shall visit thee, since thou thyself hast trained them to be princes in chief over thee? Shall not sorrows take thee, as a woman in travail?
Nangin gollepai dia nakisemsa ho chu, Pakaiyin nangma chunga vaihom’a apansah tengle, nangin ipi nasei ding ham? Numei naoso nat banga, nang dinga natna nasatah hiding ahi.
22 And if thou say in thy heart, Wherefore come these things upon me? For the greatness of thine iniquity are thy skirts uncovered, [and] thy heels have suffered violence.
Nangman na lung sunga, ipi dia thil hicheng pihi kachunga hunglhung ham, tia nakidoh nomleh: Hichehi, na chonset alet behseh jeh ahi. Hijeh’a chu na ponsil jouse kibottel’a, hesoh genthei nasatah nathoh ahiye.
23 Can an Ethiopian change his skin, or a leopard his spots? [Then] may ye also do good, who are accustomed to do evil.
Ven, Ethiopia min avun avouso akhel thei am? Chule lutnun achunga ajem-pol ho akheldoh thei ham? Achuti theile, thilse bolgunset nanghon jong thilpha nabol theidiu ahi.
24 And I will scatter them as stubble that passeth away by the wind of the wilderness.
“Keiman nangho nabonchauva, nelgam huipin changvai amut mang banga kalecheh ding nahiuve.
25 This shall be thy lot, thy measured portion from me, saith Jehovah; because thou hast forgotten me, and confided in falsehood.
Hichehi nangma chandol ahin, keiman nang dinga tedohsa-a kakoi ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye. Ajeh chu, nangman keima neisumiltan, jouva kisemdoh pathen ho chu na tahsan tai.
26 Therefore will I also turn thy skirts over thy face, and thy shame shall be seen.
Hijeh’a chu, keima mong mong in na ponsil kahodoh peh’a, najamo geiya kimu ding ahiye.
27 Thine adulteries, and thy neighings, the lewdness of thy fornication, on the hills, in the fields, — thine abominations, have I seen. Woe unto thee, Jerusalem! Wilt thou not be made clean? after how long a time yet?
Keiman, nathilbol thet umtah ho, mito najon thanhoina, kidah umtah nachonna ho, Chule loujao tinleh thinglhang’a doilim semthu nahouna, kamusoh keiyin ahi. Ohe ada nahi, Vo Jerusalem! Na kisuhthengna dinga phat itihchan lutding ham? “ati.
