< Jeremiah 11 >

1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
Pakaiya konin Jeremiah henga thu ahunglhungin, hitin aseiye.
2 Hear ye the words of this covenant, and speak unto the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
“Judah gam leh Jerusalem’a chengho jah’a, amaho toh kitepna umsa, thu hicheng hi, gaseipeh tan.
3 And say thou unto them, Thus hath said the Lord God of Israel, Cursed be the man that hearkeneth not to the words of this covenant,
Amaho jah’a, Pakai Israel Pathen chun, hitin aseiye. Koi hijongle, hiche kitepnasa thu ngailouva chonho chu gaosap changhen.
4 Which I commanded your fathers on the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron furnace, saying, Hearken to my voice, and do the same, in accordance with all which I may command you; and so shall ye be to me for a people, and I will be to you for a God;
Ajeh chu, keiman napu napateu, Egypt gam thih meilhumpi tobang sunga kon’a kahinpuidoh’a, kathupeh umsa chu, “Nanghon ka ogin nangaiyuva, kathupeh umsa chu abon’a naboljinguleh, nangho kamite nahiuva chule keima na Pathen’u kahi ding ahi, “ati.
5 In order that I may fulfill the oath which I have sworn unto your fathers, to give unto them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day. And I answered, and said, So be it, O Lord.
Chuleh keiman hiche hi kasei ahi, “keiman napu napateu kom’a kakitepnasa, tunia nachennau, khoiju leh bongnoi lonna gam, kapeh ding kati chu, kaguilhunsah ding ahi,” ati. Hichun, keiman ka donbut in, O Pakai, hitei tei hen, amen! kati.
6 Then said the Lord unto me, Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear ye the words of this covenant, and do them.
Chuin Pakaiyin aseikittai, “Thu hicheng hi, Jerusalem khopi sunga gasam phonglen; Chuleh gamsung pumpia khopi tincheng’a chen, gaseiphong in. Hichu, “kitepnasa thuho ngaiyun lang, boldinga angaicha jouse boldoh soh keiyun.
7 For I earnestly warned your fathers on the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt even until this day, sending out early and warning, saying, Hearken to my voice;
Ijeh inem itileh, keiman napu napateu chu, Egypt gam’a kon’a kahinpuidoh’a pat’a, “kathu ngaiyuvin,” tia kanagihsa ahin, tuni geiya avel avel’a kagih jing ahi.
8 Yet they hearkened not, and inclined not their ear, but walked every one in the stubbornness of their evil heart: therefore did I bring over them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do; but which they did not.
Ahivangin, napu napateu chun, kathusei kagihna ho ngaisah in aneipouve. Amitakip louchal tah in aum’un, ama cheh lungthim gitlouna dimset in akiheimang gamtauve. Hijeh chun, kathupeh ngailou ho chunga, kitepna umsa gaosapna chu, keiman achunguva kahin pohlut pih ahitai, ati.
9 And the Lord said unto me, A conspiracy hath been found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Chuin Pakaiyin kajah’a thu ahinsei kit in, “Judah leh Jerualem miten, keima eidouvui ati.
10 They are returned again to the iniquities of their earlier forefathers, who had refused to hearken to my words; and they themselves are [also] gone after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers.
Kathusei jouse donlouva anakoiya, apu apateu chonsetna lampia, amaho jong akiheilut sohtauve. Amahon kathusei ngailouvin, semthu Pathen chom chom ahouvun, apu apateu toh kitepna kanasem chu asukehtauvin ahi.
11 Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will bring an evil upon them, from which they shall not be able to rid themselves; and they will cry unto me, but I will not hearken unto them.
Hijeh chun, Pakiyin hitin aseiye, “Keiman ajamdoh umlou hel’a achunguva hamsetna nasatah kalhut khumdiu ahi. Amaho kappum in kahenga hungtao jongleu, kangaipeh lou hel ding ahi,”ati.
12 Then let the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem go, and cry unto the gods unto whom they offer incense; but they shall not save them in the least in the time of their distress.
Chutengle, Judah leh Jerusalem miten gimnamtwi ahal uva ahouvu, semthu Pathen ho kom’a gatao diu; Ahivanga hicheho chun agentheipet uva chu ahuhdoh thei lou diu ahi.
13 For equal to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah; and equal to the number of the streets of Jerusalem have ye set up altars to the disgraceful idol, altars, to burn incense unto Ba'al.
Vo Judah mite, nanghon nakhopi jouseu dimset in semthu Pathen tampi nakoitauve. Nanghon jumna maicham, Baal houna-a gimnamtwi halna maicham-phung tampi Jerusalem khopi sunga nasemtauve.
14 But thou—thou must not pray in behalf of this people, neither lift up in their behalf entreaty or prayer; for I will not hear at the time that they call unto me, because of their distress.
Vo Jeremiah, hiche mite din taoda tan. Amaho ding in jong kap hih in. Keiman amahohi, akanau ogin jong kangaipih louhel ding ahi.
15 What hath my beloved to do in my house, while she executeth the evil counsel of so many [sinners]? Yea, the holy flesh passeth away from thee; for even with thy wickedness, thou rejoicest still.
Kadeipen kamite hijongleu, aphalou thet umtah thil tampi abolnunguva, ka-insunga hunglut thei nading, ipi thuneina aneidiu ham? Akihahsel uva chule kilhaina gantha abol’u chun, amanthahna dinguva kon’a ahuhdoh thei diu hinam? Ajeh chu, amahon athilse bol’u chu kithang-at nan anei uvin ahi.
16 An ever-green olive-tree, beautiful in fruit and form, did the Lord call thy name: with the noise of a great tumult hath he kindled fire around it, and they break off its branches.
Ven, amahohi khatvei keiman, Olive thingphung engsel vetnom umtah, chuleh aga phatah hoisel ahi, kanati. Tunvang, melmate lungsatna meikong chun ahal uva, akahvam heldiuvin kaumsahtai.
17 And the Lord of hosts, that planted thee, hath decreed evil against thee; on account of the wickedness of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have done against themselves, to provoke me to anger in offering incense unto Ba'al.
Keima thaneipen Pakaiyin, hiche mite hi, Olive banga kanaphu ahin, tua suhmang dinga kano ahitai. Ajeh chu, Israel le Judah miten eiphin lunghang uvin, Baal Pathen henga gimnamtwi ahaluvin, chonset aboltauvin ahi.
18 And the Lord hath given me knowledge of it, and I know it: then didst thou let me see their doings.
Chuin Pakaiyin kahenga thu aseiyin, kamelmaten keima thading’a eigot’u chu, eihetsah tai.
19 But I was like a sheep or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against me, [saying, ] “Let us destroy the tree with its fruit, and let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may not be remembered any more.”
Keima akithana ding mun jon’a kikai kelngoi ngoitah tobang kanahin; Keima thana dinga thilgon aneiyu jong kana hepoi. Amahon, hiche mipa hi thatdoh u hitin, athusei doh hojong sumang soh’u hite. Amahi tupet in phuhlhu doh’u hitin, amin jong kigeldoh kitlou ding ahi, “atiuve.
20 But, O Lord of hosts, that judgest righteously, that triest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them; for unto thee have I entrusted my cause.
Vo thaneipen Pakai, dihtah’a thutan nangbou nahi. Chule nangman mihem lungthim mihem lungthim le lunggil thuhtah jong nakhol doh jin ahi. Hiche mite chunga naphulahna neimusah in; Ajeh chu keiman kachungthu hi nang khut’a kapeh ahitai.
21 Therefore thus hath said the Lord concerning the men of 'Anathoth, that seek thy life, saying, “Thou shalt not prophesy in the name of the Lord, that thou mayest not die by our hand:”
Pakaiyin, keima thadinga eiholho, Anathoth mite chung chang hitin aseiye. Amahon, “pakai min in gaothu seidan, nangah loule kathadiu nahi,” atiuve.
22 Therefore thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Behold, I will inflict punishment on them: the young men shall die by the sword; their sons and their daughters shall die by the famine;
Chuin thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Keiman achunguva talen nasatah kamatsah diu: A gollhang hou gal’a thigam diu, chule achapateu leh achanuteu kelthoh’a thidiu ahi.
23 And no remnant shall remain of them; for I will bring evil upon the men of 'Anathoth, in the year of their punishment.
Hijeh’a chu, lungthim phalou gongho Anathoth mite, khat cha ahingdoh umlou diu ahi. Ajeh chu, keiman achunguva hamsetna nasatah kahin lhunsah ding ahi, ati.
