Jeremiah 13
1 Thus says the LORD unto me, Go and get you a linen girdle, and put it upon your loins, and put it not in water.
BOEIPA loh kai taengah he ni a thui. Cet lamtah namah ham hlamik hailaem te lai. Te te na cinghen dongah yen lamtah tui dongah tah khuen boeh.
2 So I got a girdle according to the word of the LORD, and put it on my loins.
Te dongah BOEIPA ol bangla hailaem te ka lai tih ka cinghen ah ka naak.
3 And the word of the LORD came unto me the second time, saying,
Te phoeiah BOEIPA ol te kai taengah a pabae la ha pawk tih,
4 Take the girdle that you have got, which is upon your loins, and arise, go to Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the rock.
“Na cinghen kah hailaem na lai te khuen laeh. Te phoeiah thoo lamtah Perath la paan lamtah thaelrhaep thaelpang khuiah pahoi det,” a ti.
5 So I went, and hid it by Euphrates, as the LORD commanded me.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh kai ng'uen bangla ka cet tih Perath ah hailaem te ka det.
6 And it came to pass after many days, that the LORD said unto me, Arise, go to Euphrates, and take the girdle from thence, which I commanded you to hide there.
Tedae khohnin a thoknah muep a om phoeiah tah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Thoo, Perath la cet lamtah te lamkah hailaem, te rhoek ah det ham nang kang uen te lo laeh,” a ti.
7 Then I went to Euphrates, and dug, and took the girdle from the place where I had hid it: and, behold, the girdle was ruined, it was profitable for nothing.
Te dongah Perath la ka cet tih ka too phoeiah hailaem te ka det nah hmuen lamloh pahoi ka loh. Tedae hailaem te poci tih a pum la thaihtak pawh ne.
8 Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Te phoeiah BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk tih,
9 Thus says the LORD, After this manner will I ruin the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.
“He tah BOEIPA long ni a thui, he tlam ni Judah kah hoemdamnah neh Jerusalem kah hoemdamnah aih khaw ka phae eh.
10 This evil people, which refuse to hear my words, which walk in the imagination of their heart, and walk after other gods, to serve them, and to worship them, shall even be as this girdle, which is good for nothing.
Pilnam he thae tih ka ol hnatun ham huek uh. A lungbuei kah thinthahnah dongah pongpa uh tih, pathen tloe te thothueng ham neh bawk ham a paan uh. Te dongah he kah hailaem bangla om uh vetih boeih thaihtak mahpawh.
11 For as the girdle cleaves to the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah, says the LORD; that they might be unto me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.
Hlang kah cinghen ah hailaem a vaep bangla Israel imkhui boeih neh Judah imkhui pum he kamah taengah ka vaep coeng. Kai taengah pilnam la, ming om la, koehnah la, boeimang la om ham he BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. Tedae a yaak uh moenih.
12 Therefore you shall speak unto them this word; Thus says the LORD God of Israel, Every bottle shall be filled with wine: and they shall say unto you, Do we not certainly know that every bottle shall be filled with wine?
Te dongah amih taengah he kah ol he thui pah. He he Israel Pathen BOEIPA long ni a thui. Khap boeih te misurtui a bae vaengah tah namah te, 'Khap tom dongah misurtui a bae sak te ka ming khaw ka ming moenih a?' a ti uh.
13 Then shall you say unto them, Thus says the LORD, Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings that sit upon David's throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh a thui he amih taengah thui pah. Khohmuen kah khosa boeih te David kah ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol manghai rhoek khaw, khosoih rhoek khaw, tonghma rhoek khaw, Jerusalem khosa boeih kah rhuihahnah khaw ka hah sak coeng he.
14 And I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, says the LORD: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy, but destroy them.
Te vaengah amih te hlang loh a manuca khaw, a napa rhoek neh a ca rhoek khaw ka phop ni. BOEIPA kah olphong bangla ka hnaih pawt vetih ka rhen mahpawh. Amih thup ham te ka haidam mahpawh,” a ti.
15 Hear all of you, and give ear; be not proud: for the LORD has spoken.
Hnatun lamtah hnakaeng laeh, BOEIPA loh a thui coeng dongah namah sang voel boeh.
16 Give glory to the LORD your God, before he cause darkness, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains, and, while all of you look for light, he turn it into the shadow of death, and make it gross darkness.
Hmuep hlan tih hlaemhmah tlang ah na kho a yawk hlan vaengah thangpomnah te BOEIPA na Pathen ham pae laeh. Vangnah te na lamtawn cakhaw dueknah hlipkhup la poeh vetih yinnah la pai rhoe pai ni.
17 But if all of you will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret places for your pride; and mine eye shall weep sore, and run down with tears, because the LORD's flock is carried away captive.
Tedae na hnatun pawt akhaw ka hinglu he a huephael ah rhap bitni. Koevoeinah dongah rhap, rhap vetih BOEIPA kah tuping a sol dongah ka mik kah mikphi khaw long bitni.
18 Say unto the king and to the queen, Humble yourselves, sit down: for your principalities shall come down, even the crown of your glory.
Manghai neh manghainu te, “Na lu kah na boeimang rhuisam tah tla pawn ni, kunyun lamtah khosa,” a ti nah.
19 The cities of the south shall be shut up, and none shall open them: Judah shall be carried away captive all of it, it shall be wholly carried away captive.
Tuithim khopuei rhoek te a khaih vetih ong uh mahpawh. Judah te a pum la a sol tih ngaimong la a poelyoe.
20 Lift up your eyes, and behold them that come from the north: where is the flock that was given you, your beautiful flock?
Na mik te huel, huel lamtah tlangpuei lamkah aka pawk te hmu khaw hmuh van lah. Nang taengah m'paek tuping neh na boeimang boiva te melae?
21 What will you say when he shall punish you? for you have taught them to be captains, and as chief over you: shall not sorrows take you, as a woman in travail?
Nang soah a hal tih na tukkil vaengah balae na thui eh? Amih te nang sokah na lu dongah boeihlum la om uh ni. Rhuihet neh nang m'pin uh vetih huta cacun bangla na om mahpawt nim?
22 And if you say in your heart, Wherefore come these things upon me? For the greatness of your iniquity are your skirts discovered, and your heels made bare.
Te vaengah na thinko khuiah, “He he balae tih kai taengla ha cuuk,” na ti cakhaw namah kathaesainah a khawk dongah ni na hnihmoi hang khawn uh tih na khodil hang huet uh.
23 Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may all of you also do good, that are accustomed to do evil.
Kushi loh a vin, kaihlaeng loh a dikdek te a thovael thai nim? Nang khaw lolmang thaehuet loh na voelphoeng ham coeng thai nim?
24 Therefore will I scatter them as the stubble that passes away by the wind of the wilderness.
Te dongah amih te khosoek khohli loh divawt a yawn bangla ka taekyak ni.
25 This is your lot, the portion of your measures from me, says the LORD; because you have forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood.
Na hmulung buham, na himbaidok he kai taeng lamkah ni tite BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Kai he nan hnilh tih a honghi dongah na pangtung coeng.
26 Therefore will I discover your skirts upon your face, that your shame may appear.
Te dongah kai loh na hnihmoi te na mikhmuh ah kang khawn van vetih na yah te tueng ni.
27 I have seen your adulteries, and your neighings, the lewdness of your whoredom, and your abominations on the hills in the fields. Woe unto you, O Jerusalem! will you not be made clean? when shall it once be?
Na samphaihnah neh na phitnah, na pumyoihnah khonuen rhamtat neh nang te lohma kah som ah sarhingkoi la kam hmuh. Anunae Jerusalem nang te me hil nim na caihcil pawt pueng ve?
