< Jeremiah 12 >
1 RIGHTEOUS art thou, O Lord, when I plead with thee: yet let me talk with thee of thy judgments: Wherefore doth the way of the wicked prosper? wherefore are all they happy that deal very treacherously?
Vo Pakai, adih’a thutan nangbou nahi. Hijeh chun, nakom’a kakiphinna thu sei-inge. Ipi dinga migiloute khangtou tou’uva, Chule joule nal a thilbol ho phatou touvu ham?
2 Thou hast planted them, yea, they have taken root: they grow, yea, they bring forth fruit: thou art near in their mouth, and far from their reins.
Nangin amaho naphut det in; Hijeh chun amahon ajung akho det un, chule akhang theiuve. Akam seh in namin apha jingun; Ahivangin, alungthim u nang’a konin agamla lheh e.
3 But thou, O Lord, knowest me: thou hast seen me, and tried mine heart toward thee: pull them out like sheep for the slaughter, and prepare them for the day of slaughter.
Hijongle, Vo Pakai nangman kei lungthim nahet ahi. Nangman keima neimuchen in, ka lunggel jong nei patep e. Amaho vang thadinga kikai kelngoi bang in, abonchauvin kaimang soh in, thadin gotsa koidoh jeng in.
4 How long shall the land mourn, and the herbs of every field wither, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein? the beasts are consumed, and the birds; because they said, He shall not see our last end.
Itihchan gamsung hi lunghem’a umding ham? Gamsung mite gitlou jeh in, gamsa ho leh vachate jong gamsunga kon in akithehmang sohtauve. Amahon hiti jong hin aseiuve, “Eihon ipi boljong leuhen, Pakaiyin bon muphalou” atiuve.
5 If thou hast run with the footmen, and they have wearied thee, then how canst thou contend with horses? and if in the land of peace, wherein thou trustedst, they wearied thee, then how wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan?
Nangma mitoh nakenga nakilheitet’a bon nachol leh, nangman sakol iti na lheitet jou ding ham? Chule nangma chu, gamnom lai le a-ong laiya nakiselhuh theileh, Jordan vadung panga, gamnoiya iti nadin jou ding ham?
6 For even thy brethren, and the house of thy father, even they have dealt treacherously with thee; yea, they have called a multitude after thee: believe them not, though they speak fair words unto thee.
Ajeh chu nasopite leh nang insung mite jong nangma douva pang ahiuve. Amahon nang dounan kiphinna thu aseiyun, thading jeng injong agel uve. Hijeh chun, amahon thu ngeitah tah seijongleu, tahsan hih beh in.
7 I have forsaken mine house, I have left mine heritage; I have given the dearly beloved of my soul into the hand of her enemies.
Keiman ka goulo ding kamite ka dalhah’a, amaho chu donlouva kakoi ahitai. Keiman ka-ittah kamite chu, amelmateu khut a kapehdoh ahitai.
8 Mine heritage is unto me as a lion in the forest; it crieth out against me: therefore have I hated it.
Kalhentum kamiten eidouvun, gammang noiya keipi kisen bangin eikisenkhum’un: Hijeh chun, amahohi keiman kahot lheh jeng e.
9 Mine heritage is unto me as a speckled bird, the birds round about are against her; come ye, assemble all the beasts of the field, come to devour.
Ka lhentum kamiten, muthong ho umchan athouve. Ahinla muthonghon amaho joh aumkimvel’u ahitai. Amaho negam dingle nengim dingin gamsa ho gakoukhomun.
10 Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard, they have trodden my portion under foot, they have made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.
Gamdang vaipohon ka lengpilei asuseuvin, kaloulai jouse jong akeng in achilthang tauve. Ka-ittah ka gamsung abon'in gamkeo leh nelgam asosahtauvin ahi.
11 They have made it desolate, and being desolate it mourneth unto me; the whole land is made desolate, because no man layeth it to heart.
Amahon gamsung pumpi ahomkeo leh pannabeiyin akoiyun, ahomkeova aumphat un, akanau ogin kajan, ahinla koiman gelkhoh in aneipoi.
12 The spoilers are come upon all high places through the wilderness: for the sword of the Lord shall devour from the one end of the land even to the other end of the land: no flesh shall have peace.
Molchung achailah ho jousea, amaho sumang ding galmi ho ahung kitollut tauve. Pakai chemjam chun, leiset ninglang khat a pat a langkhat geiya, namtin vaipi chu a bahgamtai. Koimacha asohcha umlou ding ahi.
13 They have sown wheat, but shall reap thorns: they have put themselves to pain, but shall not profit: and they shall be ashamed of your revenues because of the fierce anger of the Lord.
Kamiten suhlou chang atu-uvin, ahinlah ling le khao jeng a-atkhomui. Amahon choltah in na atongun, ahivangin imacha aphatchompi pouve. Amahon alho-lhun u ajumpi dingu, ajeh chu, Pakai lungsatna chu achung'uva chu ahitai.
14 Thus saith the Lord against all mine evil neighbours, that touch the inheritance which I have caused my people Israel to inherit; Behold, I will pluck them out of their land, and pluck out the house of Judah from among them.
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Keiman kami Israelte kapehsa gamsung sumanga, Israel heng le kom, nam gilou ho chu, gamsung’a kon’a thingphung ajung geiuva kibotdoh bang’a kabodoh ding ahi. Chuleh alah uva kon’a keiman Judah chu kaloidoh ding ahi.
15 And it shall come to pass, after that I have plucked them out I will return, and have compassion on them, and will bring them again, every man to his heritage, and every man to his land.
Chutahle keiman amaho chunga lainatna kaneikit ding, Amitakip chu ama ama goulo mun leh ama ama gamsung cheh’a kahin le puilut kitding ahi.
16 And it shall come to pass, if they will diligently learn the ways of my people, to swear by my name, The Lord liveth; as they taught my people to swear by Baal; then shall they be built in the midst of my people.
Chule hitiding ahi, hiche mite hin, kamite jal’a kihilna thah aneiyuva, keima minpan’a ‘Hingjing Pakaiyin’ tia akihahsel theiuva, keima eihouvu leh, amahon kamite lah’a mun aneithei dingu chule khangtou diu ahi.
17 But if they will not obey, I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation, saith the Lord.
Amavang koihileh, nam khattouvin ka thusei angailouleh, amaho chu thingphung kibodoh banga kabodoh a, kasuhmang ding ahi, kei Pakaiyin kasei ahi,” ati.
