Jeremiah 24
1 YHWH has showed me, and behold, two baskets of figs, appointed before the temple of YHWH—after the removing by Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, of Jeconiah, son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, and the heads of Judah, and the artisan, and the smith, from Jerusalem, when he brings them into Babylon—
Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh Judah manghai Jehoiakim capa Jekoniah neh Judah mangpa rhoek te a poelyoe tih Jerusalem lamkah kutthai neh thidae te Babylon la a khuen phoeiah BOEIPA bawkim hmai kah voh rhoi dongah thaibu thaih a khueh te BOEIPA loh kai tarha n'tueng.
2 In one basket [are] very good figs, like the first-ripe figs, and in the other basket [are] very bad figs that are not eaten because of badness.
Voh khat dongkah thaibu thaih tah thaibu thaihloe bangla bahoeng then. Voh pakhat dongkah thaibu thaih tah a thaenah khui lamloh caak pawt ham hil bahoeng thae.
3 And YHWH says to me, “What are you seeing, Jeremiah?” And I say, “Figs, the good figs [are] very good, and the bad [are] very bad, that are not eaten because of badness.”
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Jeremiah balae na hmuh,” a ti. Te dongah, “Thaibu thaibu rhoe mah aka then tah bahoeng then tih aka thae tah a thae uet ah a thaenah lamloh caak la lo pawh,” ka ti tah.
4 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Te vaengah BOEIPA ol tah kai taengah ha pawk tih,
5 “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Like these good figs so I acknowledge The expulsion of Judah that I sent from this place, [To] the land of the Chaldeans—for good.
“He tah Israel Pathen BOEIPA long ni a thui. He kah thaibu then bangla Judah hlangsol te ka hmat van. Te khaw he hmuen lamloh Khalden khohmuen ah a then lam ni ka tueih.
6 And I have set My eyes on them for good, And have brought them back to this land, And built them up, and I do not throw down, And have planted them, and do not pluck up.
Ka mik he amih soah a then la ka khueh vetih amih te he khohmuen la ka mael sak ni. Amih te ka thoh vetih ka koengloeng mahpawh. Amih te ka phung vetih ka phuk mahpawh.
7 And have given to them a heart to know Me, For I [am] YHWH, And they have been to Me for a people, And I am to them for God, For they turned back to Me with all their heart.
Kai kamah he BOEIPA ni tila ming sak ham lungbuei te amih taengah ka paek ni. Te vaengah kamah kah pilnam la om uh vetih kai khaw amih kah Pathen la ka om van ni. A lungbuei boeih neh kai taengla ha mael uh mak atah,” a ti.
8 And like the bad figs that are not eaten for badness, Surely thus said YHWH: So I make Zedekiah king of Judah, And his heads, and the remnant of Jerusalem, Who are left in this land, And who are dwelling in the land of Egypt,
Tedae thaibu aka thae bangla a thaenah lamloh a caak thai pawt te BOEIPA loh, “Judah manghai Zedekiah neh a mangpa rhoek taengah khaw, he khohmuen ah aka sueng Jerusalem kah a meet rhoek taengah khaw, Egypt kho kah khosa rhoek taengah khaw ka khueh van ni.
9 And I have given them for a trembling, For evil—to all kingdoms of the earth, For a reproach, and for an allegory, For a byword, and for a reviling, In all the places to where I drive them.
Amih te tonganah neh ngaihuetnah la, yoethaenah la ka khueh vetih diklai ram tom taengah kokhahnah la, thuidoeknah la thuinuetnah la, rhunkhuennah la ka khueh vetih amih te hmuen takuem ah te ka heh ni.
10 And I have sent the sword against them, The famine and the pestilence, Until their consumption from off the ground, That I gave to them and to their fathers!”
Amamih taeng neh a napa rhoek taengah ka paek khohmuen dong lamloh a cing uh duela amih taengah cunghang, khokha neh duektahaw te ka tueih pah ni.
