Jeremiah 7
1 The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord, saying:
BOEIPA taeng lamkah ol te Jeremiah taengla pawk tih,
2 Stand in the gate of the house of the Lord, and proclaim there this word, and say: Hear ye the word of the Lord, all ye men of Juda, that enter in at these gates, to adore the Lord.
'BOEIPA im kah vongka ah pai lamtah he ol he pahoi doek laeh. Te vaengah BOEIPA taengah thothueng ham he kah vongka la aka pawk Judah pum te, 'BOEIPA ol he ya uh,’ ti nah,” a ti.
3 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Make your ways and your doings good: and I will dwell with you in this place.
Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh, “Na longpuei neh na khoboe tlaih uh laeh. Te daengah ni hekah hmuen ah nangmih te om sak eh.
4 Trust not in lying words, saying: The temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord, it is the temple of the Lord.
Nangmih loh a hong ol dongah pangtung uh boeh. BOEIPA kah bawkim, BOEIPA kah bawkim, BOEIPA kah bawkim,” a ti uh.
5 For if you will order well your ways, and your doings: if you will execute judgement between a man and his neighbor,
Na longpuei neh na khoboe te na tlaih la na tlaih atah, hlang laklo neh a hui laklo ah tiktamnah na saii la, na saii uh atah,
6 If you opress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, and walk not after strange gods to your own hurt,
Yinlai, cadah neh nuhmai hnaemtaek uh boel lamtah he hmuen ah ommongsitoe thii kingling uh boeh, nangmih aka thae sak pathen tloe rhoek hnukah na pongpa pawt atah,
7 I will dwell with you in this place: in the land, which I gave to your fathers from the beginning and for evermore.
Na pa rhoek taengah khosuen lamloh kumhal duela ka paek khohmuen kah he hmuen ah nangmih kang om sak ni.
8 Behold you put your trust in lying words, which shall not profit you:
Nangmih tah namamih ham aka hoeikhang pawh a hong ol dongah ni na pangtung uh te.
9 To steal, to murder, to commit adultery, to swear falsely, to offer to Baalim, and to go after strange gods, which you know not.
Huen ham, ngawn ham neh samphaih ham nim a honghi neh na toemngam uh? Baal taengah na phum uh tih ming pawt pathen tloe rhoek hnukah na pongpa uh.
10 And you have come, and stood before me in this house, in which my name is called upon, and have said: We are delivered, because we have done all these abominations.
Kai ming la a khue he im khuikah ka mikhmuh la na pawk uh tih na pai uh vaengah, “He rhoek kah tueilaehkoi he boeih n'saii uh akhaw n'huul uh,” na ti uh.
11 Is this house then, in which my name hath been called upon, in your eyes become a den of robbers? I, I am he: I have seen it, saith the Lord.
Ka ming aka phuei im he nangmih mik ah dingca kah lungko la poeh coeng a? Tedae kai loh kam hmuh coeng he,” a ti. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
12 Go ye to my place in Silo, where my name dwelt from the beginning: and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel:
Te dongah Shiloh kah ka hmuen te paan uh laeh. Te ah tah ka ming om lamhma coeng dae ka pilnam Israel kah boethae kongah anih soah ka saii te hmuh uh lah.
13 And now, because you have done all these works, saith the Lord: and I have spoken to you rising up early, and speaking, and you have not heard: and I have called you, and you have not answered:
Te bibi te boeih na saii coeng dongah BOEIPA kah olphong bangla nang taengah kan thui. Na thoh hang vaengah ka thui dae na yaak moenih. Nangmih te kang khue dae nan doo uh moenih.
14 I will do to this house, in which my name is called upon, and in which you trust, and to the places which I have given you and your fathers, as I did to Silo.
Ka ming la a khue tih nangmih a khuiah na pangtung thil im te ka saii pueng ni. Nangmih taeng neh na pa rhoek taengah kam paek tangtae hmuen pataeng Shiloh taengkah bangla ka saii coeng.
15 And I will cast you away from before my face, as I have cast away all your brethren, the whole seed of Ephraim.
Na manuca rhoek boeih neh Ephraim tiingan boeih khaw ka voeih bangla ka mikhmuh lamloh nangmih te kam voeih ni.
16 Therefore, do not thou pray for this people, nor take to thee praise and supplication for them: and do not withstand me: for I will not hear thee.
Te dongah nang tah he pilnam yueng thangthui boeh, amih ham tamlung neh thangthuinah khaw ludoeng pah boeh. Kai he nan doo pawt dongah nang ol aka ya la kai ka om moenih.
17 Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Judah loh khopuei neh Jerusalem tollong ah amih loh mebang a saii khaw na hmuh moenih a?
18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to offer libations to strange gods, and to provoke me to anger.
Ca rhoek loh thing a coi uh tih a napa rhoek loh hmai a toih uh. Manu rhoek loh vaan boeinu kah rhaibuh la saii pah ham vaidamtlam a nook uh. Kai aka veet hamla pathen tloe rhoek taengah tuisi a bueih.
19 Do they provoke me to anger, saith the Lord? Is it not themselves, to the confusion of their contenance?
Amih nim kai aka veet rhoek te. BOEIPA kah olphong ni he. A maelhmai ah yahpohnah aka om ham amih moenih a?
20 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold my wrath and my indignation was enkindled against this place, upon men and upon beasts, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruits of the land, and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.
Te dongah ka Boeipa Yahovah loh he ni a thui. Ka thintoek neh ka kosi tah he hmuen sokah hlang so neh rhamsa soah, khohmuen thingkung so neh diklai thaihtae soah bo coeng. Te long te a dom vetih thi mahpawh.
21 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices, and eat ye the flesh.
Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh, “Na hmueihhlutnah neh na hmueih te koei lamtah a saa te ca nawn.
22 For I spoke not to your fathers, and I commanded them not, in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning the matter of burnt offerings and sacrifices.
Na pa rhoek te Egypt kho lamloh a khuen la ka khuen khohnin vaengah hmueihhlutnah neh hmueih kawng dongah amih te ol ka uen moenih.
23 But this thing I commanded them, saying: Hearken to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people: and walk ye in all the way that I have commanded you, that it may be well with you.
Tedae amih te hekah ol he lat ka uen tih, “Ka ol he hnatun uh lamtah nangmih kah Pathen la ka om bitni. Nangmih khaw ka pilnam la om uh. Nangmih kang uen longpuei ah boeih pongpa uh lamtah nangmih taengah voelphoeng van saeh,” ka ti.
24 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear: but walked in their own will, and in the perversity of their wicked heart: and went backward and not forward,
Tedae hnatun uh pawt tih a hna te kaeng uh pawh. A lungbuei boethae kah thinthahnah dongah cilkhih te a paan uh tih a hnuk a hmai pawt ah khaw om uh.
25 From the day that their fathers came out of the land of Egypt, even to this day. And I have sent to you all my servants the prophets from day to day, rising up early and sending.
Egypt kho lamkah na pa rhoek aka pawk uh hnin lamloh tihnin duela nangmih taengah ka sal rhoek boeih kan tueih. Tonghma rhoek te hnin takhuem a thoh hang neh kan tueih coeng.
26 And they have not hearkened to me: nor inclined their ear: but have hardened their neck, and have done worse than their fathers.
Tedae kai ol te ya uh pawt tih a hna te kaeng uh pawh. A rhawn a mangkhak sak uh tih a napa rhoek lakah thae uh ngai.
27 And thou shalt speak to them all these words, but they will not hearken to thee: and thou shalt call them, but they will not answer thee.
He kah ol he amih taengah boeih na thui dae nang ol te a yaak uh moenih. Amih te na khue akhaw nang te n'doo uh moenih.
28 And thou shalt say to them: This is a nation which hath not hearkened to the voice of the Lord their God, nor received instruction: Faith is lost, and is carried away out of their mouth.
Te dongah amih taengah “Namtom long he a Pathen BOEIPA ol te hnatun uh pawt tih thuituennah khaw doe uh pawh. Amih kah ka lamkah tah uepomnah khaw moelh tih talh coeng,” ti nah.
29 Cut off thy hair, and cast it away: and take up a lamentation on high: for the Lord hath rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath,
Na rhuisam bawt lamtah voei laeh. Caphoei cuk ah rhahlung khuen laeh. BOEIPA loh a hnawt tih a thinpom kah cadilcahma khaw a phap coeng lah ko.
30 Because the children of Juda have done evil in my eyes, saith the Lord. They have set their abominations in the house in which my name is called upon, to pollute it;
Judah ca rhoek loh ka mikhmuh ah boethae ni a saii uh. BOEIPA kah olphong ni he. Im ah a sarhingkoi te a khueh uh tih ming aka poeih rhung la ka ming a phoei.
31 And they have built the high places of Topeth, which is in the valley of the son of Ennom, to burn their sons, and their daughters in the fire: which I commanded not, nor thought on in my heart.
Topheth hmuensang te a khoeng uh tih kolrhawk kah hmai dongah a canu, a capa rhoek te a hoeh uh. Te te ka uen pawt tih ka lungbuei ah khaw a kun moenih.
32 Therefore behold the days shall come, saith the Lord, and it shall no more be called Topeth, nor the valley of the son of Ennom: but the valley of slaughter, and they shall bury in Topeth, because there is no place.
Te dongah BOEIPA kah olphong ha phawk tarha nah hnin ah tah Topheth neh kolrhawk te koep phoei voel mahpawh. Tedae ngawnnah kolrhawk lakah Topheth ah ni hmuen a om pawt hil a up uh eh.
33 And the carcasses of this people shall be meat for the fowls of the air, and for the beasts of the earth, and there shall be non to drive them away.
Te vaengah pilnam kah a rhok he vaan kah vaa neh diklai rhamsa ham maeh la a om pah vetih aka hawt khaw om mahpawh.
34 And I will cause to cease out of the cities of Juda, and out of the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.
Judah khopuei rhoek khui neh Jerusalem tollong kah omngaihnah ol neh kohoenah ol khaw, yulo kah ol neh vasa ol khaw ka duem sak ni. Diklai te imrhong la om ni.
