< Jeremiah 16 >

1 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
To pacoengah Angraeng ih lok kai khaeah angzoh moe,
2 Thou shalt not take thyself a wife, neither shalt thou have sons or daughters in this place.
hae ahmuen ah zu na la mak ai, caa nongpanawk hoi nongpatanawk doeh na sah mak ai.
3 For thus hath said the Lord concerning the sons and concerning the daughters that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that bear them, and concerning their fathers that beget them in this land:
Hae ahmuen ah tapen capanawk hoi canunawk, nihcae tapen amnonawk hoi nihcae sah ampanawk kawng pongah, Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih,
4 A death through diseases of famine shall they die; they shall not be lamented for; nor shall they be buried; for dung upon the face of the earth shall they be: and by the sword and by famine shall they come to their end; and their carcasses shall be for food unto the fowls of heaven, and unto the beasts of the earth.
nihcae loe kasae duekhaih hoiah dueh o tih; nihcae to qah o haih mak ai, aphum doeh aphum o mak ai; nihcae loe long nuiah aek baktiah ni om o tih; sumsen hoi khokhahaih mah nihcae to paduek tih; nihcae qoknawk loe van ih tavaanawk hoi taw ih moi kasannawk han buh ah om tih.
5 For thus hath said the Lord, Enter not into the house of mourning, neither go to lament nor to condole with them; for I have taken away my peace from this people, saith the Lord, yea, kindness and mercy.
Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; hae kaminawk khae hoiah ka monghaih, amlunghaih hoi palungnathaih to ka lak ving boeh pongah, dueh kami im ah akun hmah, qah haih hmah loe, palung doeh sae haih hmah, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
6 And both the great and the small shall die in this land, — they shall not be buried, and men shall not lament for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them;
Kathoeng kalen tih ai nihcae loe hae prae ah dueh o boih tih; mi mah doeh nihcae to aphum mak ai, qah haih kami doeh om mak ai, nihcae pongah angmah hoi angmah ang aat kami om mak ai, sam aat kami doeh om mak ai.
7 Nor shall they break bread for them at their mourning, to comfort them for the dead; nor shall they give them to drink the cup of consolation for their father and for their mother.
Kadueh qah haih kaminawk pathloep hanah, buh thaak pae kami mi doeh om o mak ai; ampa hoi amno to duek pongah palungsae kaminawk pathloep hanah tui boengloeng paek kami doeh om mak ai.
8 And into the house of feasting shalt thou not enter, to sit with them, to eat and to drink.
Nang loe poihsakhaih ahmuen ah caeh hmah, nihcae hoi doeh nawnto anghnu hmah, nawnto nae hmah loe, caa hmah.
9 For thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place before your eyes, and in your days, the voice of gladness, and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.
Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah, Khenah, hae ahmuen hoiah anghoehaih lok, oephaih lok, zu la thendoeng ih lok hoi sava sah tangla ih loknawk to nangcae dung hoi nangcae hmaa roe ah ka boengsak han, tiah thuih.
10 And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt tell this people all these words, and they should say unto thee, Wherefore hath the Lord spoken against us all this great evil? and what is our iniquity? and what is our sin that we have committed against the Lord our God?
Hae kaminawk khaeah hae loknawk hae na thuih pae naah, nihcae mah, Tipongah Angraeng mah hae baktih kalen parai amrohaih kaicae nuiah phaksak loe? Tih hmuen maw ka sakpazae o? Ka Angraeng Sithaw nuiah tih zaehaih maw ka sak o? tiah thuih o naah,
11 That thou shalt say unto them, Because your fathers forsook me, saith the Lord, and walked after other gods, and served them, and bowed down unto them, and me they forsook, and my law they kept not;
nihcae khaeah, nam panawk mah kai ang pahnawt o moe, kalah sithawnawk hnukah bang o, nihcae ih tok to a sak pae o moe, a bok o; kai ang pahnawt o moe, ka patuk ih lok to pazui o ai;
12 And ye act worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the stubbornness of his evil heart, so as not to hearken unto me;
nangcae loe nam panawk pongah kanung kue hmuen to na sak o; khenah, ka lok tahngai han ai ah, kasae angmah ih palung mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah caeh o boih.
13 Therefore will I hurl you out of this land into the land of which ye had no knowledge, neither ye nor your fathers; and ye will serve there other gods by day and by night; so that I will not grant you any favor.
To pongah hae prae thung hoiah nangcae hoi nam panawk mah panoek vai ai ih prae ah kang vah o ving han; to ahmuen ah khoving khodai kalah sithawnawk ih tok to na sah o tih; to ahmuen ah kang pahnawt o sut han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
14 Therefore, behold, days are coming, saith the Lord, when it shall not he said any more, As the Lord liveth, who hath brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
To pongah, khenah, Israel kaminawk Izip prae hoi zaehoikung, Angraeng loe hing, tiah thuihhaih om mak ai boeh;
15 But, As the Lord liveth, who hath brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the countries whither he had driven them: and I will cause them to return unto their land which I have given unto their fathers.
toe kaminawk mah, Aluek bang prae thung hoi Israel caanawk loisakkung, Angraeng loe hing tangtang, tiah thui o tih; nihcae to ampanawk khaeah ka paek ih prae ah ka caeh haih let han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
16 Behold, I will send for many fishermen, saith the Lord, and they shall fish them; and after that will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks.
Khenah, pop parai tanga naeh kaminawk to ka patoeh han, nihcae mah tanga naeh baktiah naeh o tih; moi kah kop kaminawk to ka patoeh bae han, nihcae mah moi zoep baktiah mae, maesom hoi thlungkhaw thung boih ah pakrong o tih, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
17 For my eyes are directed upon all their ways, they are not hidden from my face, nor is their iniquity concealed from my eyes.
Nihcae caehhaih loklam to ka khet boih, nihcae loe ka hmaa hoi anghawk o ving thai ai, nihcae sakpazaehaih doeh ka hnuk han ai ah anghawk thai mak ai.
18 And [thus] will I pay them at the first their two-fold iniquity and their sin; because they have defiled my land, filling my heritage with the carcasses of their detestable and abominable idols.
Nihcae mah ka prae to amhnong o sak moe, qawk ah ka toep ih kaimah ih long to panuet thok kadueh qok hoi krang hoiah koi o sak pongah, a sakpazae o haih hoi a zae o haihnawk baktiah alet hnetto ka pathok han.
19 O Lord, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge on the day of trouble, unto thee shall nations come from the ends of the earth, and say, Nothing but falsehood had our fathers inherited, vanity, wherein there is no profit.
Aw Angraeng, nang loe raihaih ka tong naah ka thacakhaih, ka buephaih kacak sipae ah na oh; long boenghaih ahmuen hoiah Gentel kaminawk nang khaeah angzo o ueloe, Kaicae ampanawk loe lok amlai, tidoeh avang ai, atho kaom ai hmuennawk ni qawk ah toep o tangtang, tiah thui o tih.
20 How? can a man make unto himself gods, which are yet no gods?
Kami mah Sithaw tang ah kaom ai, sithaw rumramnawk to angmah hanah sak maw?
21 Therefore, behold, I will cause them to know, at this time will I cause them to know, my hand and my might: and they shall know that my name is The Eternal.
To pongah, khenah, nihcae to ka panoeksak han, ka ban hoi ka thacakhaih to vaihi nihcae khaeah ka panoeksak han; to naah ni nihcae mah kai ih ahmin loe Angraeng ni, tiah panoek o tih.
