< Jeremiah 19 >

1 Thus said YHWH: “Go, and you have acquired a potter’s earthen vessel, and from [the] elderly of the people, and from [the] elderly of the priests,
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, cet nateh hlaam ka sak e ni amhru hoi a sak e tuium hah ran haw. Hahoi kacuenaw hoi vaihmanaw thung e kacuenaw hah hrawi nateh,
2 and you have gone forth to the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, that [is] at the opening of the gate of the pottery, and have proclaimed there the words that I speak to you,
Kanîtholae longkha kung koe Benhinom tanghling koe cet haw, hawvah nang koe ka dei hane lawk hah na pâpho han.
3 and have said, Hear a word of YHWH, you kings of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem!” Thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: “Behold, I am bringing in evil on this place, at which the ears of everyone who is hearing it tingles,
Hettelah na dei han, Judah siangpahrangnaw hoi Jerusalem vah, kho kasaknaw BAWIPA e lawk hah thai awh. Isarel Cathut ransahu BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! kathainaw pueng e hnâ dawk khik ka cawt e kathoute hah ka pha sak han.
4 because that they have forsaken Me, and make known this place, and make incense in it to other gods, that they did not know, they and their fathers, and the kings of Judah, and they have filled this place [with] innocent blood,
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh ni na pahnawt awh teh, hete hmuen heh a khin sak. Amamouh hoi a napanaw hoi Judah siangpahrangnaw ni hai a thai boihoeh e cathut alouknaw koe hmuitui a sawi awh teh, hete hmuen heh yonnae ka tawn hoeh e thipaling a kawi sak.
5 and have built the high places of Ba‘al to burn their sons with fire, burnt-offerings to Ba‘al, that I did not command, nor spoke of, nor did it come up on My heart.
Hahoi a canaw hah Baal koe hmaisawi thuengnae poe hanelah, Baal hmuenrasang hah a kangdue sak awh. Hot teh kâ ka poe e nahoeh, ka dei boihoeh, ka lungthin dawk hai kâen boihoeh.
6 Therefore, behold, days are coming,” a declaration of YHWH, “and this place is no longer called The Tophet and Valley of the Son of Hinnom, but Valley of the Slaughter.
Hatdawkvah, thaihaw! atueng hah a pha han BAWIPA ni ati. Hatnae hnin nah hete hmuen heh Topheth telah kaw mahoeh toe. Benhinom tanghling tie hai tet hoeh toung vaiteh, kâtheikârawngnae tanghling telah ti han toe.
7 And I have made void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place, and have caused them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those seeking their life, and I have given their carcass for food to the bird of the heavens, and to the beast of the earth,
Hete hmuen dawk Judah hoi Jerusalem khokhangnae hah a hrawnghrang lah ka coung sak han. Ahnimouh teh tahloi hoi a hringnae taran kut dawk ka poe vaiteh, a ronaw hah kahlun e tava hoi talî moithangnaw e rawca lah ka poe han.
8 and I have made this city for a desolation, and for a hissing, everyone passing by it is astonished, and hisses for all its plagues.
Hahoi hete khopui teh tami kingdi e, panuikhai hanelah ka coung sak vaiteh, a kâhmo e thoebonae kecu dawk, ka cet pueng ni kângairu awh vaiteh a panuikhai awh han.
9 And I have caused them to eat the flesh of their sons, and the flesh of their daughters, and they each eat the flesh of his friend, in the siege and in the constriction with which their enemies constrict them, and those seeking their life.”
A canu hoi a capanaw e moi hah ka ca sak han. A hringnae ka lawm hane tarannaw ni a kalup awh teh, kângai ka ru lah ao sak torei teh, tami pueng ni a imrinaw e moi hah a ca awh han.
10 “And you have broken the bottle before the eyes of the men who are going with you,
Hahoi na hrawi e naw hmaitung vah tuium hah rak hem.
11 and have said to them, Thus said YHWH of Hosts: Thus I break this people and this city, as one breaks the potter’s vessel, that is not able to be repaired again, and in Tophet they bury—without place to bury;
Ahnimouh koe hettelah na dei han. Ransahu BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, hlaam kasakkung e hlaam hah tami ni rak a hem teh, pathoup thai lah ao hoeh e patetlah hete taminaw hoi hete kho hah rak ka hem vaiteh, Topheth vah pakawp nahane hmuen ao hoeh totouh a pakawp awh han.
12 so I do to this place—a declaration of YHWH—and to its inhabitants, so as to make this city as Tophet;
Hot patetlah hete hmuen heh ka ti roeroe han telah BAWIPA ni a dei. Hete kho heh Topheth patetlah ka coung sak vaiteh, athung e kho kasaknaw lathueng hai ka sak han.
13 and the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, have been as the place of Tophet—defiled, even all the houses on whose roofs they have made incense to all the host of the heavens, so as to pour out oblations to other gods.”
Jerusalem imnaw hoi Judah siangpahrangnaw im hoi im tangkuem e a lathueng vah kalvan lah kangvawi hoi hmuitui sawinae imnaw pueng hoi, cathut alouknaw koe nei hane a awinae imnaw pueng hah, Topheth hmuen patetlah khin sak e lah ao han.
14 And Jeremiah comes in from Tophet, to where YHWH had sent him to prophesy, and he stands in the court of the house of YHWH, and he says to all the people:
Jeremiah teh BAWIPA ni lawk dei hanelah a thanae hmuen Topheth hoi a tho teh, BAWIPA im thongma dawk a kangdue teh, tamimaya koevah hettelah a dei.
15 “Thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: Behold, I am bringing to this city, and on all its cities, all the calamity that I have spoken against it, for they have hardened their neck to not hear My words!”
Isarel Cathut ransahu BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! ka lawk a ngai awh hoeh nahanelah, a lungthin a pata sak awh kecu dawk thoenae kadeinaw pueng hah hete khopui hoi khonaw pueng dawk ka pha sak han telah ati.
