Jeremiah 20
1 But when Pashchur the son of Immer the priest, who was chief superintendent in the house of the Lord, heard Jeremiah prophesying these words:
Jeremiah ni hottelah lawk a dei e hah BAWIPA im e kahrawikung kacuepoung lah kaawm e Immer capa vaihma Pashhur ni a thai.
2 Then smote Pashchur Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in the house of the Lord.
Hottelah Pashhur ni profet Jeremiah hah a hem teh, BAWIPA im e Benjamin longkha atunglah kaawm e dawkvah, hlong a buet teh a paung.
3 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Pashchur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. And Jeremiah said unto him, Not Pashchur [Fulness of Freedom] hath the Lord called thy name, but Magor-missabib [[Terror all around]].
A tangtho vah Pashhur ni Jeremiah hah a rathap teh Jeremiah ni, BAWIPA ni na min teh Pashhur tet hoeh toe, Magormissabib telah ati toe atipouh.
4 For thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will make thee a terror to thyself, and to all thy friends; and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and thy eyes shall see it; and all Judah will I give into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall lead them into exile to Babylon, and shall smite them with the sword.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, Khenhaw! nang hoi na huinaw pueng hanelah taki ka tho e lah na coung sak han. A tarannaw hah tahloi hoi a rawp awh vaiteh, na mit hoi na hmu han. Judah tami pueng hah Babilon kut dawk be ka poe han, ahnimouh ni Babilon vah san lah a hrawi awh vaiteh, tahloi hoi a thei awh han.
5 And I will give up all the wealth of this city, and all its acquisitions, and all its precious things; and all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies, who shall plunder them, and take them and carry them away to Babylon.
Hothloilah, khopui tawntanae, tawk e lahoi a hmu awh e pueng, aphu kaawm e hno pueng, Judah siangpahrang râwnaw pueng hah a tarannaw kut dawk be ka poe han, ahnimouh ni a lawp awh vaiteh, a man awh han, Babilon vah a hrawi awh han.
6 And thou, Pashchur, and all the inhabitants of thy house, shall go into captivity; and to Babylon shalt thou come, and there thou shalt die, and there shalt thou be buried, thou, and all thy friends, to whom thou hast prophesied with falsehood.
Nang Pashhur na imthung kaawmnaw pueng hoi san lah be na toung awh han. Babilon vah na cei vaiteh, haw vah na due han. Haw vah nama hoi na huinaw hai laithoe kapâphonaw pueng hoi pakawp lah be na o awh han telah ati.
7 Thou didst persuade me, O Lord, and I was persuaded; thou laidst thy [hand] strongly on me, and didst prevail: I am laughed at all the time, every one mocketh me.
BAWIPA nama ni na pasawt teh, ka tarawi toe. Nang teh kai hlak na tha a sai teh na tâ. Kanî a loum totouh panuilai lah na dei teh panuikhai e lah ka o.
8 For as often as I speak must I cry out, violence and wasting must I proclaim; because the word of the Lord is become unto me a disgrace, and a derision, all the time.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, lawk ka dei navah, ka hram teh kâyuekâounnae, pacekpahleknae telah ouk ka hram. BAWIPA e lawk teh kai hanelah hnintangkuem pathoenae hoi panuikhai e lah ao.
9 And I thought, I will not make mention of him, and I will not speak any more in his name. But it became in my heart as a burning fire enclosed within my bones, and I was weary with enduring, and I could not overcome it.
Ama teh ka toum mahoeh toe, a min lahoi lawk hai ka dei mahoeh toe, ka ti nakunghai, ka hru thung vah hmaisaan patetlah ka lungthin thung vah ouk ao. Kaawm khai thai hoeh niteh, ka khang thai roeroe hoeh.
10 For I heard the defaming of many, angry assemblies on every side, “Tell, and we will tell of him.” All the men who ought to seek my welfare, watch for my fall; saying, “Peradventure he may he enticed, and we shall prevail against him, and we will then take our revenge on him.”
Bangkongtetpawiteh, na panuikhai e naw hah ka thai. Avoivang hoi takinae ao. Raipot awh sei, raipot awh han, telah ati awh. Ka tâlaw nahanelah meng ka pawm e ka huikonaw ni, na pasawt thai yawkaw han, hottelah hoi tavai teh a lathueng vah pathung thai han telah ati awh.
11 But the Lord is with me as a mighty powerful one; therefore my persecutors will stumble, and they will not prevail: they will be greatly ashamed, for they will not prosper; [it is] an everlasting confusion which will never be forgotten.
Hatei, BAWIPA teh athakaawme tami, takikathopounge patetlah kai koe ao. Kai na ka rektapnaw hah a bo awh vaiteh, na tâ awh mahoeh. Kayayeirai hoi ao awh han, a lamcawn mahoeh dawkvah, a yungyoe a min mathoenae teh pahnim e lah awm mahoeh.
12 But, O Lord of hosts, that probest the righteous, seest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them; for unto thee have I laid open my cause.
Oe! ransahu BAWIPA, tamikalannaw ka tanouk e, lungthin hoi pouknae ka tapuet lah kahmawtkung, ahnimae lathueng vah na pathung e hah na hmu sak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka kong teh nama koe ka hruek toe.
13 Sing unto the Lord, praise ye the Lord; for he hath delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evil-doers.
BAWIPA koevah la sak awh nateh, BAWIPA teh pholen awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, yonae kasaknaw a kut dawk hoi kabawp a ngai e naw hringnae hah a rungngang pouh.
14 Cursed be the day whereon I was born: the day on which my mother bore me shall not be blessed.
Ka khenae hnin teh thoebo lah awm seh, anu ni na khenae hni teh yawhawinae lah awm hanh seh.
15 Cursed be the man who brought tidings to my father, saying, A man-child is born unto thee. How very glad did he make him!
Apa koevah, capa na tawn telah lawk a phu teh, a lung kahawi sak e hah thoebo lah awm seh.
16 And may that same man become like the cities which the Lord overthrew, and bethought himself not; and may he hear a cry of anguish in the morning, and a tumultuous noise at noontide;
Ama teh BAWIPA ni pahren laipalah be raphoe e kho patetlah awm seh. Amom lah a pawlawknaw thai e lah awm seh. Kanîthun lah hramnae lawk thai naseh.
17 Because I was not slain [as I escaped] from the womb; or that my mother might have become unto me my grave, and her womb have been affected with a perpetual pregnancy.
Camoim thung vah na thei hoeh dawkvah, na thet pawiteh anu von teh kaie phuen lah awm vaiteh, camoim ni pou na von han ei,
18 Wherefore was this that I came forth out of the womb to see trouble and sorrow, that my days should pass away in shame?
Bang kecu dawk maw patang hoi lungmathoe hoi o hanelah kayayeirai dueng hoi ka hring thung a hninnaw hno hanelah camoim dawk hoi ka tâco telah ati.
