Jeremiah 3
1 They say, If a man put away his wife, and she goe from him, and become another mans, shall hee returne againe vnto her? shall not this land be polluted? but thou hast played the harlot with many louers: yet turne againe to mee, sayeth the Lord.
Tongpa loh a yuu te a tueih coeng tih a taeng lamloh, “Cet laeh,” a ti nah phoeiah tah hlang tloe hut la om coeng. Te dongah anih te koep mael aya? Khohmuen te poeih rhoela poeih mahpawt nim? Tedae nang tah na hui neh muep na cukhalh mai cakhaw kai taengla ha mael laeh. BOEIPA loh olphong ni he.
2 Lift vp thine eyes vnto the hie places, and beholde, where thou hast not plaied the harlot: thou hast sit waiting for them in the waies, as the Arabian in the wildernesse: and thou hast polluted the lande with thy whoredomes, and with thy malice.
Caphoei cuk te na mik huel lamtah long taengah na yalh neh na yalh pawt te hmu. Amih te Arab bangla khosoek ah na ngol thil. Thurha nang neh boethae nang loh diklai na poeih.
3 Therefore the showres haue beene restrained, and the latter raine came not, and thou haddest a whores forehead: thou wouldest not bee ashamed.
Mueitui khaw uelh vetih tlankhol khaw om tangloeng pawh. Pumyoi nu kah a tal te nang taengla pawk coeng dae hmaithae tah na aal.
4 Diddest thou not stil crie vnto me, Thou art my father, and the guide of my youth?
Tahae ah kang khue pawt tih a? kai taengah, “A pa nang tah ka camoe kah boeihlum ni,” tila nang khue.
5 Wil he keepe his anger for euer? will he reserue it to the ende? thus hast thou spoken, but thou doest euill, euen more and more.
Kumhal duela la lunguen vetih a yoeyah la ka muet uh aya? Ka thui long tah na thui ngawn dae boethae ni na saii thai he.
6 The Lord saide also vnto me, in the daies of Iosiah the King, Hast thou seene what this rebell Israel hath done? for she hath gone vp vpon euery high mountaine, and vnder euery greene tree, and there plaied the harlot.
Manghai Josiah tue vaengah BOEIPA loh kai taengah he ni a thui. Israel hnuknong loh a saii te na hmuh nim? Tlang sang tom ah cet tih thing hing hmui tom ah hnap cukhalh.
7 And I sayde, when shee had done all this, Turne thou vnto me: but she returned not, as her rebellious sister Iudah sawe.
Te rhoek te boeih a saii hnukah kai taengah ha mael ni ka ti. Tedae ha mael pawt te a tanu Judah hlangrhong loh a hmuh khaw a hmuh coeng.
8 When I sawe, howe that by all occasions rebellious Israel had plaied the harlot, I cast her away, and gaue her a bill of diuorcement: yet her rebellious sister Iudah was not afraied, but shee went also, and plaied the harlot.
Hnuknong Israel loh a samphaih te a kong a mai boeih ka hmuh. Anih te ka tueih coeng tih yuuhlak cabu te amah taengah ka paek coeng. A tanu Judah hnukpoh te a rhih kolla a paan dongah anih khaw cukhalh bal.
9 So that for the lightnesse of her whoredome shee hath euen defiled the lande: for shee hath committed fornication with stones and stockes.
Anih kah thurha ol te a om dongah khohmuen te a poeih. Lungto taeng neh thingngo taengah samphaih coeng.
10 Neuerthelesse for all this, her rebellious sister Iudah hath not returned vnto mee with her whole heart, but fainedly, sayth the Lord.
Te boeih nen khaw a tanu hlangrhong Judah loh a lungbuei boeih neh kai taengla ha mael pawt tih a honghi bueng la om. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
11 And the Lord said vnto me, The rebellious Israel hath iustified her selfe more then the rebellious Iudah.
BOEIPA loh kai taengah a thui ngawn. Israel hnuknong kah a hinglu he Judah hnukpoh lakah tang ngai.
12 Goe and crie these woordes towarde the North and say, Thou disobedient Israel, returne, sayeth the Lord, and I will not let my wrath fall vpon you: for I am mercifull, sayeth the Lord, and I will not alway keepe mine anger.
Cet lamtah he ol he tlangpuei ah pang puei. Hnuknong Israel te ha mael laeh,’ ti nah. BOEIPA kah olphong ni he. Ka he ka hlangcim dongah nang te ka maelhmai kan buenglueng thil moenih. BOEIPA kah olphong ni he, kumhal duela ka lunguen mahpawh.
13 But knowe thine iniquitie: for thou hast rebelled against the Lord thy God, and hast scattered thy waies to the straunge gods vnder euery greene tree, but yee woulde not obey my voyce, sayeth the Lord.
Namah kathaesainah te dawk ming saw. BOEIPA na Pathen taengah boe na koek. Thing hing hmui boeih kah hlanglak taengah na khosing na yaal coeng. Kai ol te khaw na yaak uh moenih. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
14 O yee disobedient children, turne againe, sayeth the Lord, for I am your Lord, and I will take you one of a citie, and two of a tribe and wil bring you to Zion,
Hnukcol ca rhoek ha mael uh laeh. BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Nangmih aka yunah khaw kai ni. Nangmih te khopuei lamkah pakhat, cako pakhat lamkah panit te kan loh phoeiah nangmih te Zion la kang khuen ni.
15 And I will giue you pastours according to mine heart, which shall feede you with knowledge and vnderstanding.
Nang aka dawn ham neh aka cangbam ham khaw ka lungbuei kah bangla kam paek vetih nangmih te lungming neh n'luem puei ni.
16 Moreouer, when yee be increased and multiplied in the land, in those daies, saieth the Lord, they shall say no more, The Arke of the couenant of the Lord: for it shall come no more to minde, neither shall they remember it, neither shall they visite it, for that shalbe no more done.
Te khohnin ha pai vaengah tah na ping vetih diklai ah pungtai uh ni. BOEIPA kah olphong ni he. BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng koep thui uh mahpawh. Lungbuei ah ael voel pawt vetih poek uh voel mahpawh. Thoelh uh voel pawt vetih koep saii voel mahpawh.
17 At that time they shall cal Ierusalem, The throne of the Lord, and all the nations shall be gathered vnto it, euen to the Name of the Lord in Ierusalem: and thence foorth they shall follow no more the hardnesse of their wicked heart.
Te vaeng tue ah Jerusalem te BOEIPA kah ngolkhoel a ti uh ni. A khuikah namtom boeih loh Jerusalem kah BOEIPA ming te a lamtawn uh ni. Amih kah boethae neh lungbuei thinthahnah hnuk te vai uh voel mahpawh.
18 In those daies ye house of Iudah shall walke with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the lande of the North, into the lande, that I haue giuen for an inheritance vnto your fathers.
Te khohnin ah Judah imkhui neh Israel imkhui te paan uh thae vetih na pa rhoek ka phaeng khohmuen ah tlangpuei khohmuen lamloh tun ha pawk uh ni.
19 But I sayde, Howe did I take thee for children and giue thee a pleasant lande, euen the glorious heritage of the armies of the heathen, and saide, Thou shalt call mee, saying, My father, and shalt not turne from me?
Kai loh ca rhoek bangla nang kang khueh vetih namtom caempuei kah a rho kirhang neh khohmuen sahnaih te nang taengah metlam kam paek eh ka ti. Kai he a pa la nang khue rhoe nang khue vetih kai hnuk lamloh na mael rhoe, na mael mahpawh ka ti.
20 But as a woman rebelleth against her husband: so haue yee rebelled against me, O house of Israel, sayeth the Lord.
Tedae huta a hui taengah a hnukpoh bangla Israel imkhui loh kai taengah na hnukpoh tangkhuet. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
21 A voice was heard vpon the hie places, weeping and supplications of the children of Israel: for they haue peruerted their way, and forgotten the Lord their God.
Israel ca rhoek kah a rhah neh a huithuinah ol te caphoei cuk ah a yaak. Amih kah longpuei paihaeh tih a Pathen BOEIPA te a hnilh uh.
22 O yee disobedient children, returne and I wil heale your rebellions. Behold, we come vnto thee, for thou art the Lord our God.
Hnukcol koca rhoek mael uh laeh, nangmih kah hnuknong te ka hoeih sak bitni. Kaimih kah Pathen BOEIPA tah nang ham a om dongah kaimih khaw nang taengla ka pawk uh bitni he.
23 Truely the hope of the hilles is but vaine, nor the multitude of mountaines: but in the Lord our God is the health of Israel.
Tlang neh som lamkah hlangping khaw a honghi ni. Israel kah loeihnah he mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA dongah ni a om dae.
24 For confusion hath deuoured our fathers labour, from our youth their sheepe and their bullocks, their sonnes and their daughters.
A pa rhoek a thatloh te yahpohnah loh mamih n'camoe lamkah ni, a boiva neh a saelhung la, a capa rhoek neh a canu rhoek la a caak coeng.
25 Wee lie downe in our confusion, and our shame couereth vs: for we haue sinned against the Lord our God, we and our fathers from our youth, euen vnto this day, and haue not obeyed the voyce of the Lord our God.
Mamih kah yahpohnah dongah yalh uh sih lamtah mamih kah mingthae loh mamih n'khuk mai saeh. Mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA taengah mamih khaw, a pa rhoek khaw n'tholh uh coeng. Mamih n'camoe lamkah tihnin duela mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA ol te n'hnatun uh moenih.
