Jeremiah 21
1 The word which came unto Jeremiah from the Lord, when king Zedekiah sent unto him Pashchur the son of Malkiyah, and Zephanyah the son of Ma'asseyah the priest, saying,
Malkijah chapa Pachhur leh Maaseih chapa thempupa Zephaniah chu, Zedekiah lengpan, Jeremiah themgaopa toh kimuto dinga ahinsol pet chun, Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga thu ahinseitai.
2 Inquire, I pray thee, in our behalf of the Lord; for Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon maketh war against us; peradventure the Lord will deal with us according to all his wondrous deeds, so that he may withdraw from us.
Amahon, Jeremiah jah’a, “Nangin keiho din, Pakai kom’a neitaopeh uvin; Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar in kachung uva gal eibol khumtauve. Pakaiyin alungset longlou chun keiho eilungset uhin, chule bolmo kidang nasatah bol intin, Aman Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar chu bailam tah’a akinungtol sah ding ahi,’’ atiuve.
3 Then said Jeremiah unto them, Thus shall ye say to Zedekiah:
Hichun Jeremiah in adonbut in, “Zedekiah lengpa kom’a kilekit’uvin lang, gaseipeh un.’’
4 Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, wherewith ye fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans, who besiege you without the walls, and I will assemble them into the midst of this city.
Pakai, Israel Pathen chun, hitin aseiye, Vetan, Babylon lengpa leh cheldia mite douna dinga, nakhut uva nachoiyu galmanchah ho abon’a pannabei leh thaneilou kasosah ding: Keiman namelmateu chu khopi lailung tah’a kahinpuilut diu ahi.
5 And I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, and in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath.
Chule keima mong mong in lunghang tahle thahattah’a, kabantha kalhan ding, nangho douna gal kabolkhum diu nahiuve. Ajeh chu nanghon keima nasatah a neiphin doh u ahitai.
6 And I will smite the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast: of a great pestilence shall they die.
Keiman hiche khopi hi, gamna hise kalha khum ding, mihem hihen chule gancha hijongle kasuhgam hel ding ahi.
7 And afterward, saith the Lord, will I give up Zedekiah the king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, and those that are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those that seek their life: and he shall smite them with the edge of the sword; he will not spare them, nor have pity, nor have mercy.
Chujou tengle, keiman Zedekiah lengpa, alhachaho leh asohte, chule khopi sunga chengho gamna hise leh chemjam’a chule kel’a hingdoh chengse chu Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar khut leh melmate khut’a kapehdoh ding ahiuve. Aman dip damna leh khotona beihel’a amaho se chu chemjam’a asatgam diu ahi,’’ ati.
8 And unto this people shalt thou say, Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death.
Mipite henga naseiding, Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Keiman nakilhen diuvin namasang uva, thilni – Hinna lampi leh thina lampi kakoipeh gel e.
9 He that remaineth in this city shall die by the sword, or by the famine, or by the pestilence; but he that goeth out, and runneth away to the Chaldeans that besiege you, shall remain alive, and his life shall be unto him as a booty.
Koi hile, khopi dalha louva, umden ho vang chu, chemjam ham, natna hise ham, chule kel jeh ham’a thiding ahiuve. Amavang, khopi musea, Babylon mite henga kipelut chu hingdoh diu ahi.
10 For I have set my face against this city for evil, and not for good, saith the Lord: into the hand of the king of Babylon shall it be given up, and he will burn it with fire.
Ijeh inem itile, keiman hiche khopi hi, achung a apha hilouva hamsetna lhunsah dinga kakoi ahitai. Hiche khopi hi Babylon lengpa kipedoh ding, aman vut asosah ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
11 And to the house of the king of Judah [say], Hear ye the word of the Lord:
Judah lengpa insung jah’a, Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ngaiyuvin, gatipeh in.
12 O house of David, thus hath said the Lord, Exercise justice on [every] morning, and deliver him that is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor; lest my fury go forth like fire, and burn so that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
Pakaiyin, David insung jah’a, hitin aseiye, jingkah seh in, thudih chu adih in tanpih uvin, chule amaho chu mibolgentheipa khut a kon in huhdoh uvin. achutiloule, nagitlounau jal'a chu, kalunghanna meikong banga hung kongdoh ding, koiman aphelmit joulou ding ahi.
13 Behold, I am against thee, O inhabitress of the valley, [about] the rock of the plain, saith the Lord; who say, Who shall descend down against us? or who shall enter into our habitations?
Chule keima tah in, Jerusalem douna gal kabol khum ding ahi. Amahon, koiham eiho eihung tongkha diuva, chule koiham hiche kulpi hin sujal dinga, atiuvin angong avaiput leuvin ahi, ati.
14 But I will inflict punishment on you according to the fruit of your doings, saith the Lord: and I will kindle a fire in its forest, and it shall devour all its environs.
Hijeh a chu, keima mong mongin, amaho chonna dung juiya talen kamatsah ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye. Chule keiman gammang lah mei kahal ding, hichun akimvel a umho abon’a akahvam ding ahi,” ati.
