< Jeremiah 46 >

1 The word of the LORD which came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Gentiles;
Namtin vaipi chung changa Pakai thusei ho, Jeremiah themgao heng ahung lhung in;
2 Against Egypt, against the army of Pharaoh-necho king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah.
Egypt chung chang thudol asei chu, Judah gam’a Josiah chapa Jehoiakim lengvaipoh kal kumli na-ah, Ephrates vadung pang’a, Carchemish galmun’a, Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar in Egypt lengpa Pharaoh Neco leh asepaite chunga agaljona chu, hitin aseiye.
3 Order ye the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle.
Nangma cheh in lum kisemtup unlang, galmun chu manotauvin,
4 Harness the horses; and get up, ye horsemen, and stand forth with [your] helmets; furbish the spears, [and] put on the brigandines.
Sakol ho chunga pho sepdoh unlang, sakol chunga toudoh uvin. Na thih-lukhuh kikhuh unlang, nagalvon hou kisemtup uvin.
5 Wherefore have I seen them dismayed [and] turned away back? and their mighty ones are beaten down, and are fled apace, and look not back: [for] fear [was] round about, saith the LORD.
Amavang, keiman ipi kamum? Egypt sepaite kichatah in anungjam tauve. Alah uva gal hangpen hojong, tijalih leuvin hung kinunghei louhel in, ajammang tauve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
6 Let not the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape; they shall stumble, and fall toward the north by the river Euphrates.
Alhai jangkhaipen ho jong ajamdoh aumpon, Gal hangpen hojong atoldoh aumpouve. Amaho chu sahlamgam’a Ephrates vadunbg panga, akipallhu gam uvin, abonchauvin akijam chap gamtauve.
7 Who [is] this [that] cometh up as a flood, whose waters are moved as the rivers?
Koi ho ham, Nile vadung twisoh khang teltul banga khang a, gamtin hinchup soh chu?
8 Egypt riseth up like a flood, and [his] waters are moved like the rivers; and he saith, I will go up, [and] will cover the earth; I will destroy the city and the inhabitants thereof.
Egypt mite ahiuve. Twisoh bangin amahon gamjouse achupsoh uvin, khopi holeh asunga cheng ho jouse asumang gamtauve.
9 Come up, ye horses; and rage, ye chariots; and let the mighty men come forth; the Ethiopians and the Libyans, that handle the shield; and the Lydians, that handle [and] bend the bow.
Manouvin, nangho sakol ho leh kangtalai ho, Galhang sepaite hung uvin hung delkhom un! Nangho Ethiopia leh Libya chule Lydia miho, thalpi kap themho leh lumdal themho hung uvin, atiuve.
10 For this [is] the day of the Lord GOD of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for the Lord GOD of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.
Ajeh chu hiche hi Pakai nikho ahin, amelmate chunga hatching nung Pakai phulah nikho ahi. Chemjam in aban satchap diu, athisan u adonkham leuva chimset ding; Tunia hi, sahlam gam’a Euphrates vadung panga Hatchungnung Pakaiyin, kilhaina gantha khat anei ahi.
11 Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou use many medicines; [for] thou shalt not be cured.
Vo nungah theng, Egypt chanu! Gilead a kaltouvin lang, kijen nading lou gahol in; Amavang nakijenna lou le ai hochun nadamsah joulou ding ahi.
12 The nations have heard of thy shame, and thy cry hath filled the land: for the mighty man hath stumbled against the mighty, [and] they are fallen both together.
Namtin in najumna thuho ajasoh tan, Leiset chung hi naka ogin adimsohtai. Na galhang penho jong amaho leh amaho akipalhhu gam un, abonchauvin alhuchap gamtauve, ati.
13 The word that the LORD spake to Jeremiah the prophet, how Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon should come [and] smite the land of Egypt.
Chuin Pakaiyin Jeremiah themgao henga, Egypt mite sat dinga Nebuchadnezzar lengpa kigotna chu aseipih in, hitin ati.
14 Declare ye in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Noph and in Tahpanhes: say ye, Stand fast, and prepare thee; for the sword shall devour round about thee.
Egypt gamsunga samphong uvin, Migdol leh Memphis chule Tahpanhes khopi ho’a, gaphongjal uvin. Galsat dingin kigosan um uvin, ajeh chu nakimvel uva miho chu chemjam in asatgam soh hel ding ahiuve.
15 Why are thy valiant [men] swept away? they stood not, because the LORD did drive them.
Nagal hangteu ibol a lhulham’u hitam? Ajeh chu amaho adinjou lou nadiuva, Pakaiyin ajeplhuh gam u ahitai.
16 He made many to fall, yea, one fell upon another: and they said, Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our nativity, from the oppressing sword.
Amaho khat leh khat akipallhu tou uvin, akiseplhu gam tauve. Chule amaho chu akihouvun,” Hung uvin ipennau gam’a imiteu koma kilekit tauhite. Chule melmapa chamjam’a kon’in jamdoh tauhite, akitiuve.
17 They did cry there, Pharaoh king of Egypt [is but] a noise; he hath passed the time appointed.
Chutah le amahon, “Egypt lengpa Pharaoh, mi kamtam mi hoitho,” tia aminvo diu ahi.
18 [As] I live, saith the King, whose name [is] the LORD of hosts, Surely as Tabor [is] among the mountains, and as Carmel by the sea, [so] shall he come.
Lengpa, Hatchungnung Pakai chun aseiye, “Keima hingjing kahi! Egypt doudin Tabor molsang tobang leh twikhanglen panga Carmel molsang tobang, mikhat ahunge;
19 O thou daughter dwelling in Egypt, furnish thyself to go into captivity: for Noph shall be waste and desolate without an inhabitant.
Vo Egypt mite, nathil kigottup unlang, sohchanga chemang dingin gotsan um uvin! Ajeh chu Memphis khopi kisumang a, asunga acheng beihel a khogem’a umding ahitai.
20 Egypt [is like] a very fair heifer, [but] destruction cometh; it cometh out of the north.
Egypt khu bongla hoitah tobang ahin; Ahinlah sahlam gamkaiya kon in sel-lhip ahung leng in achunga achutai.
21 Also her hired men [are] in the midst of her like fatted bullocks; for they also are turned back, [and] are fled away together: they did not stand, because the day of their calamity was come upon them, [and] the time of their visitation.
Egypt ten athalah u sepaite jong, pannabei bongnou thaochet abangun; Amaho galsat din apang ngamtapouve, akileheiyun ajamtauve. Ajeh chu Egypt chunga gotna nasatah ahung lhung in, amanthah nikhou ahunglhungtai.
22 The voice thereof shall go like a serpent; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.
Egypt mite chu gul kitholo bangin ajammangtauve. Melma sepaite chu, amanu doudin hiche pan in ahung kitol lut uvin, thingphung kiphuhlhu bangin atuchap jengtauve.
23 They shall cut down her forest, saith the LORD, though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the grasshoppers, and [are] innumerable.
Pakaiyin aseiye, “Amanu leh amite chu, melmaten thingphung kiphuhchap banga aphuh chap diu; Ajeh chu amaho chu khaokote sanga tamjo hungkon ahiuve.
24 The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded; she shall be delivered into the hand of the people of the north.
Egypt mite kijumso ahitauve. Amaho chu sahlam’a hung kipan miho khutna pehdoh ahitauve.
25 The LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saith; Behold, I will punish the multitude of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods, and their kings; even Pharaoh, and [all] them that trust in him:
Hatchungnung Pakai, Israel Pathen in aseiye, “Keiman Thebes mite Pathen Amon leh Egypt mite Pathen chom lengpa Pharaoh leh anung juite jouse talen kamatsah ding ahi.
26 And I will deliver them into the hand of those that seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old, saith the LORD.
Keiman, amaho thading gojing, Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar leh asepaite khut a kapehdoh ding ahi. Amavang, khonung tengle, masanga banga kiledoh kit dingu ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye, ati.
27 But fear not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel: for, behold, I will save thee from afar off, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in rest and at ease, and none shall make [him] afraid.
Hijongle kalhacha Jacob, nangma kichahih in; Lung jong lungthoi hih in Israel. Ajeh chu keiman gamla tah’a kon’a nangma kahin lepuikit ding, chule nachilhah’te jong asohchan nauva kon’a hung kile diu ahi. Chuteng koiman Israel chu asuh kichat tah louding, lungmong tah’a chengding ahiuve.
28 Fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith the LORD: for I [am] with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee: but I will not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly unpunished.
Kicha hih in, vo kalhacha Jacob, keiman nangma kaumpinai, tin Pakaiyin aseiye. Keiman nangho sohchanga kathechah nau namtin vaipi chu kasuhmang hel ding; Amavang nangho kahoidoh ding nahiuve. Keiman nangho thudihtah a kasuh dih ding, ahinla talen manlouva kakoi louhel ding nahiuve, ati.
