< Jeremiah 23 >

1 Woe be vnto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheepe of my pasture, saith the Lord.
Ohe ada nahiuve, kamite chunga vaihomte; Amahon kakelngoite athecheh un chule asumangun, agelkhoh pouve.
2 Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel vnto the pastors that feede my people, Yee haue scattered my flock and thrust them out, and haue not visited them: beholde, I will visite you for the wickednesse of your works, saith the Lord.
Pakai Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye, ‘Nanghon kamite nachingtup pouve, nathe cheh’un chule nadelmang gamtauve. Nathilse bol jeh uva, keiman nachung uva talen kamatsah diu nahiuve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
3 And I will gather the remnant of my sheepe out of all countreyes, whither I had driuen them, and will bring them againe to their foldes, and they shall growe and encrease.
Amavang, kamite ahingdoh amoh chengse chu, kathe chehna gamsung hoa kon’a kamite kachop khomding, amaho chu agamsung uva keiman kahin lepuikit diu ahi. Chule amaho phatthei chang uva, pung jal dingu ahiuve.
4 And I will set vp shepheardes ouer them, which shall feede them: and they shall dread no more nor be afraide, neither shall any of them be lacking, saith the Lord.
Chutengle, amaho kelngoi chinbanga chingtup ding mikhat kalhenpih ding ahi. Hita chu kamiten kichat tijat atokit loudiu ahi, kei Pakaiyin kasei ahitai.
5 Behold, The dayes come, saith the Lord, that I will raise vnto Dauid a righteous branche, and a King shall reigne, and prosper, and shall execute iudgement, and iustice in the earth.
Pakaiyin aseiye, ‘David guiya kon’a chilhah theng khat katun doh nading nikho chu ahung lhung e. Ama chun chingthei tah’a lengvai ahin pohding, chule gamsung pumpia dihtah’a thil abol ding ahi.
6 In his dayes Iudah shalbe saued, and Israel shall dwell safely, and this is the Name wherby they shall call him, The Lord our righteousnesse.
Ama chu, ‘Pakai eiho themchanna pa kiti ding ahi. Hiche nikho chule, Judahte huhdoh’a umding, chule Israelte lungmonga khosa ding ahiuve.
7 Therefore behold, the dayes come, sayth the Lord, that they shall no more say, The Lord liueth, which brought vp the children of Israel out of the lande of Egypt,
‘Phat ahunglhunge, mihon akihahsel teng ule, ‘Pakai hingjing, Israelte Egypt a kon’a hinpui dohpa ‘tia asei tahlou diu ahi,’ tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
8 But the Lord liueth, which brought vp and led the seede of the house of Israel out of the North countrey and from all countryes where I had scattered them, and they shall dwell in their owne lande.
Miho chun, ‘Pakai hingjing, Israelte athechehna gamho’a kon’a, chule sahlam gam’a kon’a. hinlepuikit pa,’tia kamin aseijoh diu ahi. Hitia chu amaho gamsunga cheng diu ahi,’ ati.
9 Mine heart breaketh within mee, because of the prophets, all my bones shake: I am like a drunken man (and like a man whome wine hath ouercome) for the presence of the Lord and for his holie wordes.
Thujou jeng sei themgao lhemho jallin, kalung ana behseh in, kagu kachang geiyin akithinge. Pakaiyin amaho douna asei athutheng ho kajan, hichun keima jukham bangin kalon le le jenge.
10 For the lande is full of adulterers, and because of othes the lande mourneth, the pleasant places of the wildernesse are dried vp, and their course is euill, and their force is not right.
Ijeh inem itile, gamsung hi huh le jon adim in, Pakai gaosap achutai. Gam leiset alunghem tan, gamlah’a hamhing jouse agoplha gamtai. Ajeh chu amahon athaneinau chu thilse bol nopnan aneitauve.
11 For both the prophet and the Priest doe wickedly: and their wickednesse haue I found in mine House, saith the Lord.
Thempu ho leh themgao hon Pathen hephata louvin, gitlouna adimset tauve. Aphatlounau hi, keima insung jeng’a jong kamudoh tai, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
12 Wherefore their way shalbe vnto them as slipperie wayes in the darknesse: they shalbe driuen foorth and fall therein: for I will bring a plague vpon them, euen the yeere of their visitation, saith the Lord.
Hijeh chun, amaho lamlhahna alampiu chunalding, chule kho hungthim ding ahi. Ijeh inem itile, keiman achunguva hahsatna kalhun sah’a, talen kamatsah ding phat chu ahung lhunge, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
13 And I haue seene foolishnesse in the prophets of Samaria, that prophecied in Baal, and caused my people Israel to erre.
Keiman Samaria themgao ho lah’a chonset khohtah kamui. Amahon, Ba-al min in gaothu aseiyun, kamite apuimang gam tauve.
14 I haue seene also in the prophets of Ierusalem filthines: they commit adulterie and walke in lies: they strengthen also the hands of the wicked that none can returne from his wickednesse: they are all vnto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorah.
Thilse bolna lam’a alamkaiyun ahiuve. Ven, amitakip gitlouna dalha-a, chule setna nungsun aumpouve. Amaho hi, Sodom leh Gommorah setna tobang ahitauve.
15 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hostes concerning the prophets, Beholde, I will feede them with wormewood, and make them drinke the water of gall: for from the prophets of Ierusalem is wickednesse gone forth into all the lande.
Hichun, thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin aseiye. “Keiman amahohi namtul jungkha-a kavah ding chule thina gutwi kadonsah ding ahiuve. Ajeh chu amaho’a kon in gamsung’a Pathen nahsah louna adimsohtai,’’ ati.
16 Thus sayth ye Lord of hosts, Heare not the wordes of the prophets that prophecie vnto you, and teach you vanitie: they speake the vision of their owne heart, and not out of the mouth of the Lord.
Thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Themgao ho gaothu sei chu ngai hih un, amahon pannabeiya nakinep sah’u ahibouve. Amaho lunggel gel aseiyun, Pakaiya kon’a aseidoh’u aumpoi.
17 They say still vnto them that despise mee, The Lord hath sayde, Ye shall haue peace: and they say vnto euery one that walketh after the stubbernesse of his owne heart, No euill shall come vpon you.
Amahon Pakai thusei nahsah louva koiho kom’a chun, “Olmo hih un, nangho ima tipouvin nate” atiuvin ahi. Amahon louchal tah in abolnom nom abol uvin, miho jah’a chun, “Na chunguva thilse lhungponte’’ atiuvin ahi.
18 For who hath stand in the counsel of the Lord that he hath perceiued and heard his word? Who hath marked his worde and heard it?
Hiche themgao hohi, Pakaiyin aumpi jing’a, chule Pakai thusei ajah mongu hinam? Amaho lah’a koipen khu, Pakai thusei ngaikhoh um’uvem?
19 Beholde, the tempest of the Lord goeth forth in his wrath, and a violent whirlewinde shall fall downe vpon the head of the wicked.
Ven, Pakai lunghanna chu khopi hui le go kitho’a, chule chimpei kipeiya, michonsete luchang asemmang tobang hiding ahi.
20 The anger of the Lord shall not returne vntill he haue executed, and till he haue perfourmed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter dayes ye shall vnderstande it plainely.
Pakaiyin alungsatna chu, agel banga aboldoh kahsea, alunghan dailha deh louhel ding ahi. Hichu ni nunung tengle nanghon kicheh tah’a nahetdiu ahi.
21 I haue not sent these prophets, sayth the Lord, yet they ranne; I haue not spoken to them, and yet they prophecied.
Hiche themgao hohi, keiman la kasolpon, ahivangin, amaho alhei lhei jeng uve. Chule akom’uva thujong kaseipon, hijongle amahon gaothu asei sei jeng uvin ahi.
22 But if they had stande in my counsell, and had declared my words to my people, then they should haue turned them from their euill way, and from the wickednesse of their inuentions.
Amaho chu, ka-angsunga umjing hileu, kathusei angaiyuva hichu miho kom’a aphonjal diu ahi. Chutile amahon kamite chu, achekhelnau lampi’a konle athilse bolnauva kon’a ahin lepuikit diu ahi.
23 Am I a God at hande, saith the Lord, and not a God farre off?
Keima nailam cha-a umjing Pathen kahi lou ham? Keima munjousea umjing Pathen kahi, ti Pakaiyin aseiye.
24 Can any hide him selfe in secrete places, that I shall not see him, sayth the Lord? Do not I fill heauen and earth, saieth the Lord?
Koiham keiya kon’a kisel mang thei dinga? Keima van leh leiset munjousea umjing kahi,’’ tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
25 I haue heard what the prophets said, that prophecie lies in my Name, saying, I haue dreamed, I haue dreamed.
Hiche themgao hon, asemthu-u gaothu aseijingu hi, keiman kahetai. Amahon miho jah’a, “Pakaiyin kamangin thu eiseipeh e, ngaiyuvin,’’ atiuvin, kamin in jouthu aseileuvin ahi.
26 Howe long? Doe the prophets delite to prophecie lies, euen prophecying the deceit of their owne heart?
Itih chan chu, amahon asemthu-u gaothu mangcha-a kamite ajoulhep uva, apuimang diu ham?
27 Thinke they to cause my people to forget my Name by their dreames, which they tell euery man to his neyghbour, as their forefathers haue forgotten my Name for Baal?
Apu apateuvin keima eidalhah uva Baal ahou bangun, amahon semthu mang aseikhumun, kamite eisuhmil sah ding agel uve.
28 The prophet that hath a dreame, let him tell a dreame, and hee that hath my worde, let him speake my worde faithfully: what is the chaffe to the wheate, sayth the Lord?
Themgao lhem hon amang semthu-u chu sei sei uhen. Ahinlah, keima kamcheng ja-a keima themgao hon, kitah tah in kathu chu seiphong’uhen. Vetan, changpol leh chang ga akibahna aumpoi, ati.
29 Is not my word euen like a fire, sayeth the Lord? and like an hammer, that breaketh the stone?
Kathu chu meikong hattah tobang hilou ham? Chule songpi ahal hel a vogoi thei sehpi tobang hilou ham? tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
30 Therefore beholde, I will come against the prophets, saieth the Lord, that steale my word euerie one from his neighbour.
Hijeh chun Pakaiyin aseiye, “Keiman hichu jou le nal’a gaothu seiho, chule Pakaiya kon’a thuguh mu a kiseiho, kadou ahi,’’ ati.
31 Beholde, I will come against the prophets, saith the Lord, which haue sweete tongues, and say, He saith.
Jouthu seiya lei kilehpel ho, Pakaiya kon thu kaseiyu ahi tia, keima min pom’a thusei ho, keiman kadou ahi.
32 Beholde, I will come against them that prophecie false dreames, saith the Lord, and doe tell them, and cause my people to erre by their lies, and by their flatteries, and I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they bring no profite vnto this people, saith the Lord.
Hiche themgao lhem hohi, keiman hatah in kadouve. Amahon mang asemthu uvin, gaothu aseiyun, kamite hi chonsetna a apuilut sohtauvin ahi. Ahivangin, keiman amaho hi kasolpoi. Chule amaho heng a thujong kasei khapoi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
33 And when this people, or the prophet, or a Priest shall aske thee, saying, What is the burden of the Lord? thou shalt then say vnto them, What burden? I will euen forsake you, saith the Lord.
Hiche mite khattou hon, themgao khattou ham, chule thempu khattou ham chun, nahin doh’uva, “Pakaiyin apohgih thu ipi asei am?’’ atiule, nangin amaho jah’a, “Pakai pohgih chu nangho nahiuve. Hijeh a chu Pakaiyin nang hohi napaidoh diu ahitai, tin Pakaiyin aseiye,’’ tia naseipeh ding ahi.
34 And the prophet, or the Priest, or the people that shall say, The burden of the Lord, I will euen visite euerie such one, and his house.
Chule themgao khat ham, thempu khat ham, chule mite lah a khatpen ham in, “Pakaiyin kahenga thu aseiye, ti mi aumleh, ama leh a insung mite abon’a keiman talen kamatsah ding ahi,’’ ati.
35 Thus shall yee say euery one to his neighbour, and euerie one to his brother, What hath the Lord answered? and what hath the Lord spoken?
Hisanga chu, nangho khat le khat nakidoh touva, Pakaiyin ipi aseiyam? Chule Pakaiyin iti adonbut uvem? nati joh dingu ahi.
36 And the burden of the Lord shall yee mention no more: for euery mans worde shall bee his burden: for ye haue peruerted the words of the liuing God, the Lord of hostes our God.
Amavang, nanghon ‘Pakaiya kon Pakai pohgih’ ti thucheng hi naman louhel diu ahi. Ajeh chu mihon, amaho dei dei bol nopnan amangun, Pathen thu chu aleheisoh gamtauvin ahi.
37 Thus shalt thou say to the Prophet, What hath the Lord answered thee? and what hath the Lord spoken?
Nangman themgao ho chu hiti hin dongin, “Pakaiyin iti nadonbut uvem? Chule Pakaiyin ipi aseiyam?’’ natiding ahi.
38 And if you say, The burden of the Lord, Then thus saith the Lord, Because yee say this word, The burden of the Lord, and I haue sent vnto you, saying, Ye shall not say, The burden of the Lord,
Ijemtia amahon “Kaseiyu hi Pakaiya kon ahi” atiuleh; Nangin seipeh jengin, “Pakaiyin aseiye, keiman neiminphah lou diuva kagih vangun, nanghon,” hiche hi Pakaiya kon ahi, nati tei teiyun;
39 Therefore beholde, I, euen I will vtterly forget you, and I will forsake you, and the citie that I gaue you and your fathers, and cast you out of my presence,
Hijeh’a chu, keiman nangho kageldoh kit louhel diu, napu napateu kapehsa hiche khopi jong kasuh mang ding, chule nangho jong kachop kom’a kadelmang diu nahiuve, ati.
40 And will bring an euerlasting reproche vpon you, and a perpetual shame which shall neuer be forgotten.
Chule keiman nachung uva, tonsot kumkhoa jum le ja kathoh sah a, aitih’a vetda nachannau beilou ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye, ati.
