Jeremiah 39
1 In the tenth month of the ninth year of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and his whole army arrived at Jerusalem and besieged it.
Judah lengpa Zedekiah lengpa lengvaipoh kumko lhinkum, lhasom lhin in, Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar leh asepaite ahung kon uvin, Jerusalem khopi ahin delkhum tauvin ahi.
2 On the ninth day of the fourth month of the eleventh year of Zedekiah's reign, the city wall was broken through.
Chuchejou kumni leh keh lhinkum, Zedekiah lengvaipoh kumsom lekhat lhinkum, lhali lhin in, Babylon miten Jerusalem kulpi bang munkhat ahin vokeh uvin, khopi sung chu alotauvin ahi.
3 All the officials of the king of Babylon came in and took over the city, making their headquarters at the Middle Gate. They were Nergal-sharezer of Samgar, Nebo-sarsekim the Rabsaris, Nergal-sharezer the Rabmag, and all the other officials of the king of Babylon.
Hichun Babylon sepaite leh avaipoteu, abonchauvin khopi sunga ahung lut uvin, kelkot lailha pen’a chun atoudentauve. Amaho chu: Nergar-sharezer samgar, Nebo-Sarsekim, Nergar-sharezer dangkhat toh chuke gamvaipo dang dangho toh ahiuve.
4 When Zedekiah king of Judah and all the defenders saw them there, they ran away. They escaped from the city during the night through the king's garden, passing through the gate between the two walls, and took the road to the Arabah.
Judah lengpa leh asepaiten, Babylon mite khopi sunga ahunglut’u chu amu-uvin, abonchauvin ajamdoh tauve. Amahon jan muthim noiya chun, kulpi bang teni kikah a kum kelkot chu ajotpaiyun, lengpa honlei lampia acheuvin, Jordan phaicham ajontauvin ahi.
5 But the Babylonian army chased after them and caught up with Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. They captured him and brought him before Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he put him on trial and punished him.
Ahivangin, Babylon sepaiten amaho chu anung del un, Jericho phaicham a aphauvin, lengpa chu amantauve. Amahon Zedekiah lengpa chu, Hamath gam’a Riblah mun’a um Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar kom’a apuiluttauve. Hichun Nebuchadnezzar lengpan Zedekiah chunga thu atantai.
6 The king of Babylon had Zedekiah's sons killed as Zedekiah watched, and he also executed all of Judah's leaders there in Riblah.
Zedekiah lengpa chu, Babylon sepaiten, Judah gamvaipo holeh leng chapate jouse, asatlih’u chu, amittah in avetsah uvin ahi.
7 Then he had Zedekiah's eyes gouged out, and had him bound with bronze chains and taken away to Babylon.
Chuin, Zedekiah lengpa chu amit teni akaldoh peh un, thihkhaovin ahen un, Babylon gamlanga akaitauvin ahi.
8 The Babylonians burned down the king's palace and the people's houses, and they demolished Jerusalem's city walls.
Hichun Babylon miten, lengpa inpi jouse jaonan Jerusalem khopi chu neiyin ahallha tauve. Chule khopi kulpi bang jouse jong chu asuchim soh tauve.
9 Then Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard carried off to Babylon the rest of the people who had stayed in the city, together with those who had deserted and gone over to him.
Chujouvin, in-ngah lamkaipa Nebuzaradan leh midang aumden ho chule ama henga hung kipelut chengse chu, Babylon gam’a sohchang dingin akaitauvin ahi.
10 But he left behind in the land of Judah some of the poorest people who didn't have any property. He gave them vineyards and fields at that time.
Ahin Nebuzaradan chun, Judah gamsunga mivaicha dehset ho chu, lengpilei honleh loumun tampi apen, phatea avettup diuvin angansetan ahi.
11 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had given orders to Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard regarding Jeremiah, saying,
Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar in, in-ngahpa Nebuzaradan chu Jeremiah holdoh dingin, thupeh aneitan ahi.
12 “Go and get Jeremiah and watch out that nothing bad happens to him. Do whatever he wants.”
Aman Nebuzaradan jah’a, “Amapa hi phaten vetup inlang, koima bolset sah hih in. Aman angaichat chan penlang, aman asei bang bangin jen in,” ati.
13 So Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard, Nebushazban the Rabsaris, Nergal-sharezer the Rabmag, and all the army captains of the king of Babylon
Hijeh chun in-ngahpa Nebuzaradan, vaihom pipu Nebushazban, lengpa thumop Nergar-sharezer chule Babylon lengpa noiya lengvaipoho chun,
14 took Jeremiah from the guard's courtyard, and they handed him over to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, to take him home. Jeremiah stayed there with his own people.
Mi asol uvin, singkul a kon’in Jeremiah agapuidoh sah uvin, avetup dingin Shaphan tupa, Ahikam chapa, Gedaliah chu anganse tauve. Hichun Gedaliah in Jeremiah chu ainlam’a alepuiyin, hitichun, ama amite lalh’a acheng dentai.
15 During the time that Jeremiah had been kept prisoner in the guard's courtyard, a message from the Lord had come to him:
Jeremiah chu songkul'a akihen nalaiyin, Pakaiyin akom’a thu ahinseiye.
16 “Go and tell Ebed-melech the Cushite that this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: I am about to keep my promise I made against this city—to harm it and not to help it—you'll see it for yourself when it happens.
“Chenlang Ethiopia mi Ebed-melech chu seipeh in. Thaneipen Pakai, Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye; Keiman hiche khopi douna kanaseisa banga kahin bolding ahi. Keiman hamsetna achunguva kalhunsah ding, hichu apha hilou ding, nangman namittah a amaho manthah chu namu ding ahi.
17 But when that day comes I'm going to save you, declares the Lord. You won't be handed over to the people you're afraid of.
Amavang hiche nikho chuleh keiman nangma chutobang kichat tijat na-a kon’a kahuh dohding nahi.
18 I promise to rescue you so that you're won't be killed. Your reward will be your life, because you trusted in me, declares the Lord.”
Ajeh chu keiman nangma neitahsan jal’a, keiman nangma hinkho chu kahuh doh ding nahi. Keiman nangma kahuhdoh’a bitkeiya kaumsah ding nahi,” tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
