< Jeremiah 29 >

1 Now these are the wordes of the booke that Ieremiah the Prophet sent from Ierusalem vnto the residue of the Elders which were caryed away captiues, and to the Priestes, and to the Prophets, and to all the people whome Nebuchad-nezzar had caried away captiue from Ierusalem to Babel:
He cabu ol he Jerusalem lamkah tonghma Jeremiah loh vangsawn patong hlangrhuel taeng neh khosoih rhoek taeng neh, tonghma rhoek taeng neh, Nebukhanezar loh Jerusalem lamkah Babylon duela a poelyoe pilnam boeih taengah,
2 (After that Ieconiah the King, and the Queene, and the eunuches, the princes of Iudah, and of Ierusalem, and the workemen, and cunning men were departed from Ierusalem)
Manghai Jekoniah neh manghainu, Judah tildit mangpa rhoek neh Jerusalem rhoek, Jerusalem kah kutthai rhoek neh thidae rhoek a khuen phoeiah tah,
3 By the hand of Elasah the sonne of Shaphan and Gemariah the sonne of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah King of Iudah sent vnto Babel to Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel) saying,
Shaphan capa Elasah neh Hilkiah capa Gemariah kut dongah a pat. Amih rhoi te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar taengkah Judah manghai Zedekiah taengah Babylon la a tueih tih,
4 Thus hath the Lord of hostes the God of Israel spoken vnto all that are caryed away captiues, whome I haue caused to be caryed away captiues from Ierusalem vnto Babel:
Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. vangsawn boeih te Jerusalem lamloh Babylon la ka poelyoe coeng.
5 Buylde you houses to dwell in, and plant you gardens, and eate the fruites of them.
Im thoh uh lamtah khosa uh, dum tue uh lamtah a thaih te ca uh.
6 Take you wiues, and beget sonnes and daughters, and take wiues for your sonnes, and giue your daughters to husbands, that they may beare sonnes and daughters, that ye may bee increased there, and not diminished.
Yuu lo uh lamtah canu neh capa cun uh. Na capa ham khaw yuu loh pah lamtah na canu te a va taengah pae. Te daengah ni canu neh capa a sak uh vetih a ping uh pahoi neh na muei uh pawt eh.
7 And seeke the prosperitie of the citie, whither I haue caused you to be caried away captiues, and pray vnto the Lord for it: for in the peace thereof shall you haue peace.
Te lam te nangmih kam poelyoe akhaw khopuei kah ngaimongnah mah toem uh. Te ham te BOEIPA taengah thangthui uh lamtah a ngaimongnah dongah nangmih ham ngaimongnah om bitni.
8 For thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, Let not your prophets, and your southsayers that bee among you, deceiue you, neither giue eare to your dreames, which you dreame.
Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Nangmih khui kah na tonghma rhoek neh nangmih taengkah bihma rhoek loh nangmih te n'rhaithi boel saeh. Na mang na man uh te khaw hnatung uh boeh.
9 For they prophecie you a lie in my Name: I haue not sent them, saith the Lord.
Amih te kan tueih pawt dae nangmih taengah tah kai ming neh a honghi lam ni a tonghma uh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
10 But thus saith the Lord, That after seuentie yeeres be accomplished at Babel, I will visite you, and performe my good promise toward you, and cause you to returne to this place.
He tah BOEIPA long ni a thui. Ka ka dongkah he Babylon ham soep ni. Kum sawmrhih vaengah nangmih kang hip vetih he hmuen la nangmih te mael puei ham ka ol then he nangmih soah ka thoh ni.
11 For I knowe the thoughtes, that I haue thought towards you, saith the Lord, euen the thoughtes of peace, and not of trouble, to giue you an ende, and your hope.
Nangmih ham ka poek, kopoek te khaw ka ming ngawn. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. Ngaimong kopoek neh nangmih taengah hmailong ngaiuepnah paek ham te yoethaenah ham moenih.
12 Then shall you crie vnto mee, and ye shall go and pray vnto me, and I will heare you,
Te vaengah kai he nan khue uh vetih na pongpa uh ni. Kai taengah na thangthui uh vaengah nangmih taengkah ka hnatun ni.
13 And ye shall seeke mee and finde mee, because ye shall seeke mee with all your heart.
Kai nan tlap uh vaengah nan hmuh uh bitni. Te vaengah na thinko boeih neh kai nan toem uh mako ne.
14 And I wil be found of you, saith the Lord, and I will turne away your captiuitie, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places, whither I haue cast you, saith the Lord, and will bring you againe vnto the place, whence I caused you to be caryed away captiue.
Nangmih te kan hmuh bitni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. Nangmih khuikah thongtla, thongtla te ka mael sak vetih namtom boeih lamkah neh nangmih kang heh nah hmuen boeih lamloh nangmih te kan coi. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Nangmih kam poelyoe hmuen lamloh nangmih te kam mael puei ni.
15 Because ye haue sayd, The Lord hath raised vs vp Prophets in Babel,
'BOEIPA loh mamih ham Babylon ah tonghma a phoe,’ na ti uh.
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord of the King, that sitteth vpon the throne of Dauid, and of all the people, that dwell in this citie, your brethren that are not gone forth with you into captiuitie:
Tedae BOEIPA loh David kah ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol manghai kawng neh he khopuei kah khosa pilnam boeih kah a kawng, nangmih neh vangsawn la aka cet pawh na manuca kawng ni a thui tangkhuet.
17 Euen thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Beholde, I will sende vpon them the sworde, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figges, that cannot bee eaten, they are so naughtie.
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Kai loh amih taengah cunghang, khokha neh duektahaw khaw ka tueih coeng ke. Amih te thaibu thaihuk bangla ka khueh vetih a thaenah te ca uh thai mahpawh.
18 And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence: and I will make them a terror to all kingdomes of the earth, and a curse, and astonishment and an hissing, and a reproche among all the nations whither I haue cast them,
Amih hnukah cunghang neh, khokha neh, duektahaw neh ka hloem vetih tonganah neh ngaihuetnah la, diklai ram boeih taengah thaephoeinah la, imsuep la, thuithetnah la, amih ka heh nah namtom boeih taengah kokhahnah la amih te ka khueh ni.
19 Because they haue not hearde my words, saith the Lord, which I sent vnto them by my seruantes the Prophetes, rising vp earely, and sending them, but yee woulde not heare, saith the Lord.
Ka ol he a hnatun uh moenih te. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Amih taengah ka sal tonghma rhoek te kan tueih. A thoh neh kan tueih akhaw na hnatun uh moenih. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
20 Heare ye therefore the word of the Lord all ye of the captiuitie, whome I haue sent from Ierusalem to Babel.
Te dongah Jerusalem lamloh Babylon la ka tueih nangmih vangsawn boeih loh BOEIPA ol he hnatun uh.
21 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, of Ahab the sonne of Kolaiah, and of Zedekiah the sonne of Maaseiah, which prophecie lyes vnto you in my Name, Beholde, I will deliuer them into the hande of Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, and he shall slay them before your eyes.
Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh Kolaiah capa Ahab neh Maaseiah capa Zedekiah kawng, kai ming neh nangmih taengah a honghi la aka tonghma rhoek he a thui. Amih te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar kut dongah ka tloeng coeng tih nangmih mikhmuh ah amih te a ngawn ni.
22 And al they of the captiuitie of Iudah, that are in Babel, shall take vp this curse against them, and say, The Lord make thee like Zedekiah and like Ahab, whome the King of Babel burnt in the fire,
Amih kongah Babylon kah Judah hlangsol boeih loh rhunkhuennah la lo uh saeh. “Babylon manghai loh amih rhoi Zedekiah neh Ahab te hmai neh a rhoh bangla BOEIPA loh nang n'khueh,” ti saeh.
23 Because they haue committed vilenie in Israel, and haue committed adulterie with their neighbours wiues, and haue spoken lying words in my Name, which I haue not commanded them, euen I knowe it, and testifie it, saith the Lord.
Israel taengah boethaehalang a saii uh tih a hui kah yuu nen khaw samphaih uh. Amih ka uen pawt mai ah kai ming neh a honghi ol a thui uh. Kai laipai long he ka ming khaw ka ming ta. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
24 Thou shalt also speake to Shemaiah the Nehelamite, saying,
Nehelam Shemaiah te khaw thui pah.
25 Thus speaketh the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, saying, Because thou hast sent letters in thy Name vnto all the people, that are at Ierusalem, and to Zephaniah the sonne of Maaseiah the Priest, and to all the Priests, saying,
He ni Israel Pathen, caempuei BOEIPA loh a thui. Namah loh na ming neh Jerusalem kah pilnam boeih taengah, Maaseiah capa khosoih Zephaniah taeng neh khosoih boeih taengah ca pat lamtah thui pah,” ti nah.
26 The Lord hath made thee Priest for Iehoiada the Priest, that yee should bee officers in the House of the Lord, for euery man that raueth and maketh himselfe a Prophet, to put him in prison and in the stockes.
BOEIPA loh khosoih Jehoiada yueng BOEIPA im kah hlangtawt la om ham khosoih la nang n'khueh coeng. Pavai neh tonghma hlang boeih te hloong khui neh thi rhawnmoep dongla khueh nawn.
27 Nowe therefore why hast not thou reproued Ieremiah of Anathoth, which prophecieth vnto you?
Te dongah balae tih nangmih taengah aka tonghma Anatoth Jeremiah te na tluung laeh pawh?
28 For, for this cause hee sent vnto vs in Babel, saying, This captiuitie is long: buyld houses to dwell in, and plant gardens, and eate the fruites of them.
He dongah nim Babylon kah mamih ham ol han tah. Im te puet thoh uh lamtah khosa uh, dum tue uh lamtah a thaih te ca uh a ti rhailai,'ti nah,” a ti.
29 And Zephaniah the Priest red this letter in the eares of Ieremiah the Prophet.
Tedae tekah cabu te khosoih Zephaniah loh tonghma Jeremiah kah a hna ah a tae pah.
30 Then came the worde of the Lord vnto Ieremiah, saying,
Te vaengah BOEIPA ol te Jeremiah taengla ha pawk.
31 Send to all them of the captiuitie, saying, Thus saith the Lord of Shemaiah the Nehelamite, Because that Shemaiah hath prophecied vnto you, and I sent him not, and hee caused you to trust in a lye,
vangsawn boeih taengah thui hamla tueih laeh. Nehelam Shemaiah kawng ni BOEIPA loh a thui coeng he. Shemaiah te nangmih taengah tonghma ngawn cakhaw kai loh anih kan tueih pawt dongah nangmih te a honghi dongah ni m'pangtung sak.
32 Therefore thus saieth the Lord, Behold, I wil visite Shemaiah the Nehelamite, and his seede: hee shall not haue a man to dwell among this people, neither shall he beholde the good, that I will doe for my people, sayth the Lord, because he hath spoken rebelliously against the Lord.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Nehelam Shemaiah neh a tiingan te ka cawh coeng. Anih te he pilnam lakli ah hlang hing la om pawt vetih ka pilnam taengah a then ka saii te khaw hmu mahpawh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Anih loh BOEIPA taengah koeknah ni a thui.
