Jeremias 12
1 Righteous are you, O Lord, that I may make my defence to you, yes, I will speak to you [of] judgments. Why [is it] that the way of ungodly [men] prospers? [that] all that deal very treacherously are flourishing?
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 You have planted them, and they have taken root; they have begotten children, and become fruitful; you are near to 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 you, Lord, know me; you have proved my heart before you; purify them for the day of their 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 grass of the field wither, for the wickedness of them, that dwell in it? the beasts and birds are utterly destroyed; because [the people] said, God shall not see our ways.
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 Your feet run, and they cause you to faint; how will you prepare [to ride] upon horses? and you have been confident in the land of your peace? how will you do in the roaring 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 your brethren and the house of your father, even these have dealt treacherously with you; and they have cried out, they are gathered together in pursuit of you; trust not you in them, though they shall speak fair [words] to you.
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 my beloved one into the hands 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 My inheritance has become to me as a lion in a forest; she has uttered her voice against me; therefore have I hated her.
Kalhentum kamiten eidouvun, gammang noiya keipi kisen bangin eikisenkhum’un: Hijeh chun, amahohi keiman kahot lheh jeng e.
9 Is not my inheritance to me a hyaena's cave, or a cave round about her? Go you, gather together all the wild beasts of the field, and let them come to devour her.
Ka lhentum kamiten, muthong ho umchan athouve. Ahinla muthonghon amaho joh aumkimvel’u ahitai. Amaho negam dingle nengim dingin gamsa ho gakoukhomun.
10 Many shepherds have destroyed my vineyard, they have defiled my portion, they have made my desirable portion a trackless 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 it is made a complete ruin: for my sake the whole land has been utterly ruined, because there is none that lays [the matter] to heart.
Amahon gamsung pumpi ahomkeo leh pannabeiyin akoiyun, ahomkeova aumphat un, akanau ogin kajan, ahinla koiman gelkhoh in aneipoi.
12 The ravagers are come to every passage in the wilderness: for the sword of the Lord will devour from one end of the land to the other: no flesh has any 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 Sow wheat, and reap thorns; their portions shall not profit them: be ashamed of your boasting, because of reproach before 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 For thus says the Lord, concerning all the evil neighbors that touch mine inheritance, which I have divided to my people Israel; Behold, I [will] draw them away from their land, and I will cast out Juda from the midst of 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 I have cast them out, [that] I will return, and have mercy upon them, and will cause them to dwell every one in his inheritance, and every one in 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 be, if they will indeed learn the way of my people, to swear by my name, [saying], The Lord lives; as they taught my people to swear by Baal; then shall [that nation] 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 return, then will I cut off that nation with utter ruin and destruction.
Amavang koihileh, nam khattouvin ka thusei angailouleh, amaho chu thingphung kibodoh banga kabodoh a, kasuhmang ding ahi, kei Pakaiyin kasei ahi,” ati.
