< Jeremiah 47 >

1 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremias the prophet against the people of Palestine, before Pharao took Gaza.
Faro ni Gaza a tuk hoehnahlan e Filistinnaw e kong dawk, Profet Jeremiah koe BAWIPA e lawk teh a pha.
2 Thus saith the Lord: Behold there come up waters out of the north, and they shall be as an overflowing torrent, and they shall cover the land, and all that is therein, the city and the inhabitants thereof: then the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howl,
Atunglah hoi tui kalen teh a lawng han. Ka poum lah a lawng vaiteh, ram hoi a thung kaawm e naw pueng heh a muem han. Khopui hoi athung kaawm e taminaw pueng a khuika awh vaiteh, ram thung kaawm e taminaw pueng a kâhram awh han.
3 At the noise of the marching of arms, and of his soldiers, at the rushing of his chariots, and the multitude of his wheels. The fathers have not looked back to the children, for feebleness of hands,
A thakasai marang ka yawng thai e hoi tarantuknae rangleng ka sawm e hoi leng a tuen sak e pawlawk dawk napanaw ni a canaw khet mang laipalah a yawng awh han.
4 Because of the coming of the day, in which all the Philistines shall be laid waste, and Tyre and Sidon shall be destroyed, with all the rest of their helpers. For the Lord hath wasted the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Cappadocia.
Filistin taminaw raphoenae hnin, Taire hoi Sidon koehoi kabawmkung kaawm rae raphoenae hnin teh a pha vaiteh, bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni kacawie Kaphtor ram koehoi ka tho e Filistinnaw hah a raphoe han.
5 Baldness is come upon Gaza: Ascalon hath held her peace with the remnant of their valley: how long shalt thou cut thyself?
Gaza taminaw e lû a ngaw pouh han. Askelon teh a pâmit han. A ram tanghling dawk kacawirae hah, bangkongmaw namahoima na kâbouk han.
6 O thou sword of the Lord, how long wilt thou not be quiet? Go into thy scabbard, rest, and be still.
Oe! BAWIPA e tahloi na totouh maw duem na o han. Na tabu dawk kâen nateh duem awmh.
7 How shall it be quiet, when the Lord hath given it a charge against Ascalon, and against the countries thereof by the sea side, and there hath made an appointment for it?
BAWIPA ni Askelon hoi tuipui teng e ram taranlahoi kâ na poe e na thai nahlangva bangkongmaw duem ao thai han. Hawvah kâroe hanelah hruek e doeh telah ati.
