< Jeremiah 8 >
1 When that happens, declares the Lord, the bones of the kings of Judah, the bones of the officials, the bones of the priests, the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the people of Jerusalem will be taken out of their graves.
Pakaiyin aseiye, hiche nikho chuleh melmaten lhankhuh asuhset uva, Judah lengte leh avaipoteu gulechang ho, thempu leh themgaote gulechang ho, chuleh Jerusalem’a chengte athisaho gulechang ho, lhankhuh’a kon’a kilaidoh ding ahi.
2 They will lie exposed to the sun and moon, and to all the stars which they loved, which they served, which they followed, which they consulted, and which they worshiped. Their bones will not be collected or reburied, but will be left like manure lying on the ground.
Gulechang ho chu, amahon adeitahuva akilhen’u, anajen leu chuleh chibai aboh’u, a Pathen’u nisa leh lha chuleh ahsiho angsunga, tollhanga kithethang diu ahi. Hitia chu, gulechang ho jouse chu, kichomkhom kittalouding, chuleh avela kivuikit talou ding, tollhanga amonlha dinga kitheyal ding ahiuve.
3 Those who are left of this evil family will prefer to die rather than live in every place I've scattered them, declares the Lord Almighty.
Hiche nam giloute lah’a, ahingdoh amoh chengse chun, hin sanga thi adeijoh diu ahi. Kei thaneipen Pakaiyin kasei ahitai, ati.
4 Tell them this is what the Lord says: When people fall down, don't they get up again? When people go the wrong way, don't they turn around?
Chuin Jeremiah in mipite henga aseitai, ‘Pakaiyin aseiye, mi alhuh teng thoudoh kitji hilou ham? Mi khattou achena lampi dihlou ahin hetdoh teng, ama chu hung kinungle kitji hilou ham?
5 So why have these people of Jerusalem gone the wrong way? Why do they refuse to turn around from their repeated betrayals, holding on to all their lies?
Achutileh ipi dinga kamite hi manthahna lampia vahmang diu hitauvem? Ipijeh’a Jerusalem mite hung kile kit ding dau ham? Amahon akijou lhepnau chu atuhchah un, ahung kile kit nompouve.
6 I've heard exactly what they said, but they don't tell the truth. No one is sorry for doing wrong, asking, “What have I done?” Everyone chooses their own way, like a horse charging into battle.
Keiman akihounau kangailhi jing in, thudih aseidoh u kaja hih hel e. Alah uva khatbeh jong, aphatmona lunggimpi um uvem? Khatchan jong, ibol’a hibang lom’a phamo kahim, atipouve. Amitakip in, ama ama lunglam cheh in setna lampia, galmun jon’a lhei-jangkhai tah sakol abang gamtauve.
7 Even storks high in the sky know when it's time to migrate. Turtledoves, swifts, and songbirds know when to fly away at the right time of the year. But my people don't know the laws of the Lord.
Vanlaijol’a lengle vakang in kichouphat akihet in, vakhu leh pelpalep chuleh vakeng sang injong, amaho kichonphat akihetuvin, kumseh in aphatchan akile kit jiuve. Ahivangin kamiten ima nahepouve. Amahon Pakai chondan thu kapehsa jong ahe tapouve.
8 How on earth can you say, “We're wise, and we have the Law of the Lord?” Can't you see that the writings of your teachers of the Law have turned it into lies?
Itidan’a, nanghon keiho miching kahiuve, Pakai danthu keiho kom’a aume, natitheiyu ham? Nahil uva pang danthu them hon, thujou jeng ajihlut gam’u hilou ham?
9 The wise will be shown to be foolish; they will be shocked at being caught out. Can't you see that they've rejected what the Lord says—so do they have any wisdom at all?
Nahil’uva pang michingho kijumso gamdiu, ngolhoi tah thang’a chu ohdensoh ahitauve. Ajeh chu amahon Pakai thusei donlouvin akoitauve. Asunguva itobang chihna aneiyu hitam?
10 I'm going to give their wives to others, and their fields to different owners, since everyone cheats because they're greedy, poor and rich alike. Even prophets and priests—they are all dishonest liars!
Hijeh’a chu keiman ajiteu pasal dang kapeh ding, chuleh alou jouseu jong gamchom mi kapeh ding ahi. Amaho aneopen’a pat alenpen geiyin, kilosetna apumdim’un, lamdih louva sum mu ding jeng agel uve. Chuleh kalhacha themgao holeh thempuho geiyin lepthol in thil aboltauve.
11 They give my wounded people first aid, but they don't really care about them. They tell them, “Don't worry! We have peace!” even as war approaches.
Kamite kisuhkhahna maha nasatah chu, amahon bailam tah’a damdoh din agel uve. Chamna bon umlouva, amahon cham leh lungmon aum’e, atiuvin ahi.
12 Are they ashamed of the disgusting things they did? No, they're not ashamed at all, they can't even blush. So they will fall just like the others, when I punish them; they will drop down dead, says the Lord.
Hitobang thet um tahtah ho aboluva, amaho chu jahcha louvu ham? Ajahcha naisai pouve. Jum leh ja jong ahepouve. Hijeh chun, amaho chu alhulhamsa ho lah’a kijam diu ahi. Keiman amaho chu talen kamatsah’a kaphuh lhuh ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
13 I'm going to destroy them, declares the Lord. There will be no grapes left on the vines, no figs on the trees—even the leaves will wither. They will lose whatever I gave them.
Keiman kamite kahin chopkhom ding ahi. Lengpithei phungho leh theichang phungho chu aga beisoh ding, chuleh theiga phungho jouse ana geiya goplha ding ahiuve. Keiman kamite kapehsa ijakai abon’a mangsoh hel ding ahi. Keima thaneipen Pakaiyin kasei ahitai, ati.
14 The people say, “Why are we sitting around here? Let's get together and run to the fortified towns. We can die there, for the Lord our God is killing us by giving us poisoned water to drink, because we sinned against him.
Chutah leh, mipiten hitia asei diu, ‘Ibol’a thi ngah’a hilaiya eiho imoh umthim diu ham? Hungun, kulpi kikhaikhum khopi ho del’u hitin, chumun’a chun gathikhom’u hite. Ijeh inem itileh, Pakai i-Pathen’u chun eiho manthahna dinga thupeh abol ahitan, chuleh idon diuva thina gutwi eikoipeh’u ahitai. Ajeh chu eiho Pakai dounan ichonse behseh tauve.
15 We hoped for peace, but instead nothing good has come; we hoped for a time of healing, but instead there was only sudden terror.”
Eihon chamna ingaichauvin, ahivangin cham leh lungmon aumdehpoi. Eihon kisuhdam nading phat ingah’un, ahinlah kichat tijatna jeng bou imuve.
16 The snorting of enemy horses can be heard from Dan. The whole country shakes in fear at the sound of the neighing of these strong stallions, They have come to destroy the country and everything in it; Jerusalem and everyone who lives there.
Melmate sakol ho nah-khon gin, Dan gam’a kon in akijatai. A sakolteu huhpen gin chun gamsung pumpi ahot ling soh jenge. Amaho chu igamsungu leh asunga umjouse sumang dinga hungkon ahi, atiuve.
17 Watch out! I'm sending snakes among you, vipers that can't be charmed. They will come and bite you, declares the Lord.
Keiman hiche namelmateu chu, gu hattah suhngoi theilou gul banga, nalahuva kahin lhalut ding ahi. Amaho chun nachuh diu chuleh nathi diu ahi. Keima thaneipen Pakaiyin kasei ahitai.
18 Nothing comforts me in my suffering; I feel terrible inside.
Ka lunggim hesoh nahi, boldam thei ding ahitapoi. Ka lungchang ana behseh jenge.
19 Listen to my people crying out for help from a distant land, asking “Isn't the Lord present in Zion anymore? Has her King left?” Why have they made me angry, worshiping their carved images and their useless foreign idols?
Kamite ka- ogin khu ngaiuvin; Gamsung pumpi akithonge. ‘Pakaiyin Jerusalem anungsun hitam? Jerusalem lengpa hoilamba hitam? Atiuve. Pakaiyin adonbut in, ‘Ipi dinga ba doilim semthu gamdang mite Pathen ho chibai naboh’uva, kei neiphin lunghang’u ham? ati.
20 “The harvest is over, the summer is finished, but we're not saved,” say the people.
Mipi chu hatah in akap’un, ‘Chang-at phat kichaiya, chuleh nipilai jong beita, eiho la huhdoh in ium hih laiyuve’ atiuve.
21 I'm crushed by the injuries suffered by my people; I mourn for them. I'm horrified at what's happened!
Kamite kimavona chu keima lungthim kimavona ahin, keima kaple maovin kaumin, kagimlhehtai.
22 Isn't there any ointment from Gilead to help heal them? Aren't there any doctors there? So why haven't my people been healed from their wounds?
Gilead gam’a aboldam nading damdoi umlou ham? Hichea chu louthem jong umlou hitam? Ahileh, ibol’a kamite maha chu kidamsah lou ham?
