Jeremiah 21
1 The worde which came vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, when king Zedekiah sent vnto him Pashur, the sonne of Malchiah, and Zephaniah, the sonne of Maaseiah the Priest, saying,
BOEIPA taeng lamkah ol te Jeremiah taengla ha pawk. Te vaengah manghai Zedekiah loh anih taengla Malkhiah capa Pashur neh khosoih Maaseiah capa Zephaniah te a tueih tih,
2 Inquire, I pray thee, of the Lord for vs, (for Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel maketh warre against vs) if so be that the Lord will deale with vs according to all his wonderous workes, that he may returne vp from vs.
“Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh Mamih m'vathoh thil coeng dongah BOEIPA te mamih ham dawt pawn saeh. Amah khobaerhambae cungkuem he BOEIPA loh mamih ham a saii khaming, tedae mamih taeng lamloh nong mai saeh,” a ti nah.
3 Then said Ieremiah, Thus shall you say to Zedekiah,
Tedae amih te Jeremiah loh, “He he Zedekiah taengah thui pah,” a ti nah.
4 Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Behold, I will turne backe the weapons of warre that are in your hands, wherewith ye fight against the King of Babel, and against the Caldeans, which besiege you without the walles, and I will assemble them into the middes of this citie.
Israel Pathen BOEIPA he ni a thui. Na kut dongkah caemtloek hnopai te nangmih aka vathoh thil Babylon manghai taeng neh vongvoel lamloh vongtung duela nangmih aka dum Khalden taengla ka mael ne. Te dongah amih te he khopuei laklung ah ka kuk ni.
5 And I my selfe will fight against you with an outstretched hand, and with a mighty arme, eue in anger and in wrath, and in great indignation.
Nangmih taengah kut ka thueng vetih, ka tlungluen ban neh, thintoek neh, kosi neh, thinhul bat la kan vathoh thil ni.
6 And I will smite the inhabitants of this citie, both man, and beast: they shall die of a great pestilence.
He khopuei kah khosa rhoek neh hlang khaw rhamsa khaw ka ngawn vetih duektahaw neh mat duek uh ni.
7 And after this, sayeth the Lord, I will deliuer Zedekiah the King of Iudah, and his seruants, and the people, and such as are left in this citie, from the pestilence, from the sworde and from the famine into the hande of Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, and into the hande of their enemies, and into the hande of those that seeke their liues, and he shall smite them with the edge of the sworde: he shall not spare them, neither haue pitie nor compassion.
Te phoeikah te khaw BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Judah manghai Zedekiah neh a sal rhoek, pilnam neh he khopuei khuiah duektahaw lamloh, cunghang lamloh, khokha lamloh aka sueng te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar kut dongah, a thunkha kut dongah, a hinglu aka toem kut dongah ka paek ni. Te vaengah amih te cunghang ha neh a ngawn vetih amih te rhen mahpawh, hnaih mahpawh, haidam mahpawh.
8 And vnto this people thou shalt say, Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death.
Tedae he pilnam taengah BOEIPA loh a thui he thui pah. Kai loh nangmih mikhmuh ah hingnah longpuei neh dueknah longpuei kang khueh coeng he.
9 He that abideth in this citie, shall dye by the sword and by the famine, and by the pestilence: but he that goeth out, and falleth to the Caldeans, that besiege you, he shall liue, and his life shalbe vnto him for a pray.
He khopuei khuikah khosa rhoek tah cunghang neh, khokha neh, duektahaw neh duek ni. Tedae aka coe tih nangmih aka dum Khalden taengah aka kuep tah hing rhoe hing vetih a hinglu te amah taengah kutbuem bangla a khueh ni.
10 For I haue set my face against this citie, for euill and not for good, saith the Lord: it shalbe giuen into the hande of the King of Babel, and he shall burne it with fire.
A then ham pawt tih a thae ham ni he khopuei soah ka maelhmai ka khueh he BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Babylon manghai kut dongah a tloeng vetih hmai neh a hoeh ni.
11 And say vnto the house of the King of Iudah, Heare ye the worde of the Lord.
Judah manghai imkhui te khaw BOEIPA ol hnatun uh.
12 O house of Dauid, thus saith the Lord, Execute iudgement in the morning, and deliuer the oppressed out of the hande of the oppressor, lest my wrath go out like fire and burne, that none can quench it, because of the wickednes of your workes.
David imkhui aw, BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Mincang ah a tiktamnah neh laitloek. Hnaemtaek kut loh a reth te huul laeh. Ka kosi he hmai bangla puek vetih n'hlawp ve. Na khoboe kah khoboe thaenah dongah thi pawt ve.
13 Beholde, I come against thee, O inhabitant of the valley, and rocke of the plaine, saith the Lord, which say, Who shall come downe against vs? or who shall enter into our habitations?
He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. ‘Unim mamih ka et vetih unim mamih kah khodun la aka pawk eh?’ aka ti rhoek, tlangkol lungpang kol kah khosa nangmih te kam pai thil coeng he.
14 But I will visite you according to the fruite of your workes, saith the Lord, and I will kindle a fire in the forest thereof, and it shall deuoure rounde about it.
He tah BOEIPA olphong ni. Na khoboe thaihtae bangla nangmih te kan cawh ni. A duup ah hmai ka hlup vetih a kaepvai boeih te boeih a hlawp ni.
