Jeremiah 15
1 The Lord told me: Even if Moses and Samuel were standing before me pleading with me on behalf of these people, I wouldn't feel sorry for them. Send them away from me. Have them leave.
To pacoengah Angraeng mah kai khaeah, Ka hmaa ah Mosi hoi Samuel to angdoe moe, lawkthui hoi langlacadoeh, ka poekhaih amkhraih mak ai; Judah kaminawk to ka hmaa hoi takhoe o ving ah, caeh o ving lai nasoe.
2 If they ask you, “Where shall we go?” tell them that this is what the Lord says: Those to be killed by the plague, to the plague; those to be killed by the sword, to the sword; those to be killed by famine, to famine; and those to be killed in captivity, to captivity.
Nihcae mah, naa ah maw ka caeh o han loe? tiah na naa o nahaeloe, duek han pahoe ih kaminawk loe, duekhaih khaeah, sumsen han pahoe ih kaminawk loe, sumsen khaeah, khokhahaih hoi duek han pahoe ih kaminawk loe, khokhahaih khaeah, misong ah pahoe ih kaminawk loe, misong ah caeh o tih, tiah Angraeng mah thuih, tiah thuih paeh, tiah ang naa.
3 I will put four kinds of destroyers in charge of them, declares the Lord: swords to kill, dogs to drag their bodies away, and the birds of prey and wild animals to eat them and destroy them.
Nihcae nuiah ka suek han ih misa palitonawk loe, hum hanah sumsen, ruet hanah uinawk, caak moe paaeh hanah, van ih tavaanawk hoi long ih moisannawk hae ni, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
4 I will make all the kingdoms of the world horrified by them, because of the evil things Manasseh, son of Hezekiah, king of Judah did in Jerusalem.
Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah capa Manasseh loe Jerusalem ah sak ih hmuen pongah, long praenawk boih ah raihaih ka phaksak han.
5 Who will be sorry for you, Jerusalem? Who will mourn for you? Who will stop to ask you how you are?
Aw Jerusalem, mi mah maw na tahmen tih? To tih ai boeh loe mi mah maw na qah thui tih? To tih ai boeh loe ngantui maw tiah dueng hanah, mi maw nang khaeah angzo tih?
6 You have deserted me, declares the Lord. You have turned your back on me. So I will take action against you and destroy you; I am tired of showing you mercy.
Kai nang pahnawt sut moe, hnukbang nam laem boeh pongah, na nuiah ban ka phok moe, kang hum han; dawnpakhuemhaih ka tawn mak ai, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
7 I will scatter you with a winnowing fork from every town in the country. I will destroy my people and take away their children because they refuse to give up their evil ways.
Nihcae to prae khongkhanawk ah takhi hawhhaih paqa hoiah ka hawh han; a caanawk to palung ka setsak han, a caeh o haih loklam hoi amlaem o ai pongah, nihcae to kang hmatsak han.
8 There will be more widows than the sand of the sea. I will bring a destroyer at noon and mothers will lose their young sons. They will suddenly experience agony and shock.
Judah ih lamhmainawk loe ka hmaa ah tuipui ih savuet pongah pop o tih; thendoengnawk ih amno hum kaminawk to athun naah ka patoeh han; nihcae nuiah zit kaom tasoehhaih to ka phaksak han.
9 A mother of seven children will collapse; she will gasp for breath. Her sun will set while it's still daytime; she will be ashamed and humiliated. I will let the enemies kill the rest of them, declares the Lord.
Ca nongpa sarihto tapen kami loe, thaboeng moe, hinghaih qui apet boeh; anih hanah loe athun li naah ni duem pae boeh; anih loe azathaih to tongh moe, poek anghmang sut boeh; kanghmat thoemto kaminawk doeh sumsen hoiah hum hanah, a misanawk khaeah ka paek han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
10 How sad I am, my mother, that you gave birth to me! I'm a victim of argument and conflict wherever I go in the country. I have never lent anyone anything, or borrowed anything, but still everyone curses me.
Kam no, kai loe khosak bing boeh! Prae boih ah angzoeh koeh kami, misa angcoeng koeh kami ah nang tapen moeng boeh! Amekhaih hnuk hanah minawk han tangka ka coisak ai; minawk ih tangka doeh ka coi ai; toe kami boih mah kai kasae ang thuih o.
11 But the Lord told me: Don't worry, I'm going to take away your problems so you can do good. I will make your enemies plead with you whenever they're in trouble or suffering.
Angraeng mah, Kahoih ai atue phak naah, kahoih ah kang suek han; raihaih hoi patangkhanghaih atue ah na misanawk mah nang khaeah tahmenhaih hni o tih, tiah thuih.
12 Can anyone break iron, iron from the north, or bronze?
Judah kaminawk, sum maw, to tih ai boeh loe sumboeng to na khaek thai ai batih toengah, aluek bang hoiah angzo misanawk to na pazawk thai mak ai.
13 I will give away your wealth and valuable possessions for free. They will become plunder for your enemies because of all the sins you committed throughout your country.
Na sak ih zaehaihnawk pongah, na prae thungah na tawnh ih hmuenmae hoi tacongnawk to hmuenmae lomh kaminawk khaeah azom ah ka paek han.
14 Then I will have your enemies make you their slaves in an unfamiliar country, because I will so angry it will be like lighting a fire that will burn you up.
Na panoek ai ih prae ah na misanawk hoi nawnto kang caehsak han; nangcae kangh hanah, palung ka phuihaih hmai baktiah angqong boeh, tiah a thuih.
15 You know what's happening to me, Lord. Please remember me and look after me. Punish my persecutors! Please be patient—don't let me die! You know I put up with criticism because I want to honor you.
Aw Angraeng, nang mah panoek; na panoek poe ah loe, na khenzawn ah; kai pacaekthlaek kaminawk to lu la ah; ka misanawk nuiah palungsawk hmah, kai hae na takhoe ving hmah; kai loe nang pongah kasaethuihaih to ka yok boeh, tiah panoek ah.
16 When I received your messages, I ate them up! What you said made me really happy—I was delighted. I belong to you, Lord God Almighty!
Ka hnuk ih na loknawk to ka pazui boeh; Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw, kai loe na hmin hoi kawk ih kami ah ka oh pongah, na lok loe kai han anghoehaih hoi oephaih ah oh.
17 I didn't join in with a bunch of jokers as they had fun. I stayed by myself because you have called me, and you have filled me with outrage.
Kai loe kami pahnui thuih kaminawk angpophaih ahmuen ah kang hnu ai; nihcae hoi anghoehaih doeh ka sah ai; ka nuiah ban na koeng moe, palungphuihaih hoiah nang koisak pongah, kaimabueng ni kang hnut sut.
18 Why doesn't my pain ever stop? Why is my wound incurable? Why can't it be healed? You've really become like a seasonal stream to me, an unreliable source of water.
Tipongah kai ih ahma loe nat parai moe, thah thai ai ahma, kahoih thai ai ahma ah oh loe? Nang loe kai hanah amsawnlok thui kami, tui kakaang vacong tuinawk baktiah maw na oh boeh?
19 So this is what the Lord says: If you come back to me, I will take you back and you will serve me again. If what you talk about are worthwhile subjects and not nonsense, you will be my spokesman, Jeremiah. They must be the ones who follow you; you must not follow them.
To pongah Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; nam laem let nahaeloe, ka tok sak hanah, kang hoih han; avang ai lok to thui ai, atho kaom loknawk to na thuih nahaeloe, kai ih pakha baktiah na om tih; nihcae loe nang khaeah amlaem o let nasoe; toe nang loe nihcae khaeah amlaem let hmah.
20 Then I will make you a wall to these people, a strong wall of bronze. They will fight against you but they won't defeat you. I am with you to save you and rescue you, declares the Lord.
Hae kaminawk khaeah kacak sumkamling tapang ah kang ohsak han; nang to pahlong moe, loisak hanah nang khaeah ka oh pongah, nihcae mah na tuh o cadoeh, na pazawk o mak ai, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
21 I will liberate you from the power of the wicked, and free you from clutches of the cruel.
Kasae kaminawk ih ban thung hoiah kang pahlong moe, zit kaom kaminawk ban thung hoiah kang loisak han.
