< Jeremiah 8 >

1 At that time, saith Jehovah, they shall bring forth the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves;
Te tue vaengkah BOEIPA olphong loh Judah manghai rhoek kah a rhuh neh a mangpa rhoek kah a rhuh, khosoih rhoek kah a rhuh neh tonghma rhoek kah a rhuh khaw, Jerusalem khosa rhoek kah a rhuh te a phuel lamloh a khuen rhoe a khuen uh ni.
2 and they shall spread them out to the sun and to the moon and to all the host of the heavens, which they have loved, and which they have served, and after which they have walked, and which they have sought, and which they have worshipped: they shall not be gathered, nor be buried; they shall be for dung upon the face of the ground.
Te vaengah khomik neh, hla neh, vaan caempuei boeih taengah a yaal uh ni. Te ni a lungnah uh tih a thothueng thiluh. Te te a hnukah a pongpa uh tih te te a toem uh, a bawk uh. Tedae hloem uh pawt vetih up uh mahpawh diklai hman ah aek bangla om ni.
3 And death shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue that remain of this evil family, in all the places whither I have driven those that remain, saith Jehovah of hosts.
Aka coih cako lamkah a meet boeih loh hingnah lakah dueknah te a tuek ni. Hmuen takuem kah boethae neh aka sueng rhoek he ka heh ni. Caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
4 And thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah: Do [men] fall, and not rise up? Doth one turn away, and not return?
Te phoeiah amih te thui pah. BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. A cungku uh atah thoo uh pawt nim? A mael atah ha mael mahpawt nim?
5 Why hath this people of Jerusalem slidden back with a perpetual backsliding? They hold fast deceit, they refuse to return.
Pilnam he balae tih a mael? Jerusalem tah hnuknong la a mawt tih a huep te a ngaitoeih uh dongah ha mael ham a aal uh.
6 I hearkened and heard: they speak not what is right; there is no man who repenteth him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? Every one turneth to his course, like a horse rushing into the battle.
Ka hnatung tih ka hnatun a thuem la a thui uh moenih. A saii boeih te balae ti ham khaw a thae dongah dam aka ti hlang a om moenih. A yong a yong doeah caemtloek la aka vikvuek marhang bangla mael.
7 Even a stork in the heavens knoweth her appointed times, and the turtle-dove and the swallow and the crane observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the judgment of Jehovah.
Vaan kah bungrho long khaw a tingtunnah a ming tih vahui neh marhang, marhang neh langloep loh a rhaai tue a ngaithuen. Tedae ka pilnam loh BOEIPA kah laitloeknah te ming uh pawh.
8 How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of Jehovah is with us? Behold, certainly the lying pen of the scribes hath made it falsehood.
Metlam lae kaimih taengah BOEIPA kah olkhueng om tih ka cueih na ti uh. Tedae cadaek rhoek kah laithae cacung a muk te laithae rhoe la he.
9 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: behold, they have rejected Jehovah's word; and what wisdom is in them?
Aka cueih rhoek te yak uh vetih rhihyawp dongah man uh ni. BOEIPA kah olka a hnawt uh dongah amih ham mebang cueihnah nim aka om te?
10 Therefore will I give their wives unto others, their fields to those that shall possess [them]; for every one, from the least even unto the greatest, is given to covetousness; from the prophet even unto the priest, every one dealeth falsely.
Te dongah a yuu rhoek te a tloe taengla, a khohmuen te aka pang taengla ka paek tangloeng pawn ni. Tanoe lamloh kangham hil a mueluemnah ham boeih a mueluem. Tonghma lamkah khosoih hil a pum la laithae a saii.
11 And they have healed the breach of the daughter of my people lightly, saying, Peace, peace! when there is no peace.
Ka pilnam canu kah pocinah te vapsa la a toi uh. Rhoepnah rhoepnah a ti ham vaengah rhoepnah om pawh.
12 Are they ashamed that they have committed abomination? Nay, they are not at all ashamed, and they know not how to blush. Therefore shall they fall among them that fall: in the time of their visitation they shall stumble, saith Jehovah.
A yah ham tueilaehkoi la a saii vaengah a yah ham om dae yak pawt tih hmaithae khaw ming uh pawh. Te dongah amih cawhnah tue ah aka cungku lakli ah cungku uh van vetih paloe uh ni. BOEIPA loh a thui coeng.
13 I will utterly take them away, saith Jehovah: there are no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the fig-tree; and the leaf is faded: and I will give them up to those that shall pass over them.
Amih te boeih ka coi vetih ka thup ni. BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Misur dongah misurthaih om mahpawh. Thaibu dongah thaibu thaih om pawt vetih a hnah khaw hoo ni. Amih aka paan te amih taengla ka paek ni.
14 Why do we sit still? Assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the fenced cities, and let us be silent there: for Jehovah our God hath put us to silence, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against Jehovah.
Balae tih mamih n'ngol sut. Tingtun uh sih lamtah hmuencak khopuei la ael uh sih. Mamih kah BOEIPA Pathen loh mamih n'kuemsuem sak dongah pahoi kuemsuem uh sih. BOEIPA taengah n'tholh uh dongah sue tui ni mamih n'tul coeng.
15 Peace is looked for, and there is no good; a time of healing, and behold, terror.
Sading ham lamtawn dae a then om pawh, hoeihnah tue ham vaengah letnah la poeh he.
16 The snorting of his horses is heard from Dan: the whole land trembleth at the sound of the neighing of his steeds, and they come, and devour the land, and all it contains, the city and those that dwell therein.
A marhang a phit te Dan lamloh a yaak, a lueng kah a kawk ol ah diklai tom hinghuen. Ha pawk uh vaengah khohmuen neh a khopuei boeih, a khuikah khosa boeih te a yoop.
17 For behold, I send among you serpents, vipers against which there is no charm, and they shall bite you, saith Jehovah.
Rhulthae rhul te nangmih taengah kan tueih coeng he. Te rhoek te calthai nen khaw a coeng pawt dongah nangmih n'tuk ni. BOEIPA kah olphong ni he.
18 My comfort in my sadness! my heart is faint in me!
Ka mongnah khaw ka khuikah kothaenah dongah ka lungbuei tah hal coeng.
19 Behold the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people, from a very far country: Is not Jehovah in Zion? Is not her king in her? Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images, with foreign vanities?
khohla bangsang kho lamkah ka pilnam nu kah a pang ol la ke. Zion ah BOEIPA a om moenih a? A manghai khaw a khuiah a om moenih a? Balae tih kholong kah a mueidaep neh a honghi la kai m'veet uh.
20 The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.
Cangah a poeng tih khohal khaw bawt coeng dae mamih tah n'khang moenih.
21 — For the breach of the daughter of my people am I crushed; I go mourning; astonishment hath taken hold of me.
Ka pilnam nu pocinah dongah kopang neh ka paep tih imsuep bangla kai n'kolek.
22 Is there no balm in Gilead? is there no physician there? Why then is there no dressing applied for the healing of the daughter of my people?
Gilead ah thingpi a om moenih a? Te ah te aka hoeih sak khaw om tangloeng pawh. Balae tih ka pilnam nu kah sadingnah loh ha pawk pawh.
