< Jeremiah 44 >
1 The word that has been to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews who are dwelling in the land of Egypt—who are dwelling in Migdol, and in Tahpanhes, and in Noph, and in the land of Pathros—saying,
Egypt khohmuen kah khosa rhoek, Migdol neh Tahpanhes kah khosa, Noph neh Parthros khohmuen kah Judah boeih ham Jeremiah taengah ol ha pawk.
2 “Thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: You have seen all the calamity that I have brought in on Jerusalem, and on all the cities of Judah, and behold, they [are] a desolation to this day, and there is none dwelling in them,
“Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Jerusalem so neh Judah khopuei boeih ah boethae cungkuem ka thoeng sak te na hmuh uh coeng. Tahae khohnin ah imrhong te a khuiah khosa om mahpawh ne.
3 because of their wickedness that they have done, by provoking Me to anger, by going to make incense, by serving other gods, that they did not know, they, you, and your fathers.
A boethae uh hman ah kai veet ham a saii uh pathen tloe taengah hmueih phum ham neh thothueng ham pongpa uh. Amih te amamih long khaw, nangmih long khaw, na pa rhoek long khaw a ming uh moenih.
4 And I send to you all My servants the prophets, rising early and sending, saying, Please do not do this abomination that I have hated—
Ka sal boeih te nangmih taengah kan tueih coeng. Tonghma rhoek te a thoh neh ka tueih tih, ‘Tueilaehkoi hno te saii uh boel mai, te te ka hmuhuet,’ ka ti.
5 and they have not listened nor inclined their ear to turn back from their wickedness, not to make incense to other gods,
Tedae hnatun uh pawt tih pathen tloe ham ka phum pawt ve a ti ah a boethae lamloh mael ham a hna te kaeng uh pawh.
6 and My fury is poured out, and My anger, and it burns in cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem, and they are for a ruin, for a desolation, as [at] this day.
Te dongah ka kosi neh ka thintoek he bo coeng tih Judah khopuei neh Jerusalem tollong te a dom coeng. Te dongah ni tahae khohnin bangla imrhong neh khopong la a poeh uh.
7 And now, thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: Why are you doing great evil to your own souls, to cut off man and woman, infant and suckling, from you, from the midst of Judah, so as not to leave a remnant to you:
Te dongah Israel Pathen caempuei Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui coeng. Balae tih, na hinglu te yoethae tanglue aka khuen tih Judah lakli kah huta tongpa neh camoe cahni te nangmih ham a meet kangna a paih pawt hil nangmih aka saii ham khaw namamih ni.
8 by provoking Me to anger by the works of your hands, by making incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, to where you are going to sojourn, so as to cut yourselves off, and so as to your being for a reviling and for a reproach among all nations of the earth?
Nangmih aka saii ham ni na paan uh tih na bakuep thil Egypt diklai kah pathen tloe ham na phum pah na kut dongkah bibi neh kai nan veet uh. Tedae nangmih te diklai namtom boeih kah rhunkhuennah neh kokhahnah la aka om sak ham rhung ni.
9 Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, that they have done in the land of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem?
Judah khohmuen neh Jerusalem tollong ah a saii uh na pa rhoek kah boethae khaw, Judah manghai kah boethae neh a yuu rhoek kah boethae khaw, nangmih kah a boethae neh na yuu rhoek kah boethae te na hnilh uh nama?
10 They have not been humbled to this day, nor have they been afraid, nor have they walked in My law, and in My statutes, that I have set before you and before your fathers.
Tahae khohnin duela na ueih uh pawt tih narhih uh pawh. Nangmih mikhmuh neh na pa mikhmuh ah kam paek ka olkhueng neh ka khosing te na caeh puei uh pawh.
11 Therefore, thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: Behold, I am setting My face against you for calamity, even to cut off all Judah,
“Te dongah Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Judah pum te saii ham ka maelhmai nangmih taengah a thae la ka khueh coeng ne.
12 and I have taken the remnant of Judah, who have set their faces to enter the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they have all been consumed in the land of Egypt; they fall by sword [and] are consumed by famine, from the least even to the greatest, they die by sword and by famine, and they have been for an execration, for an astonishment, and for a reviling, and for a reproach.
Egypt kho la caeh ham neh bakuep pahoi ham a maelhmai aka khueh Judah kah a meet te ka khuen vetih Egypt khohmuen ah boeih khawk uh bitni. Cunghang dongah cungku uh vetih khokha ah khawk bitni. Tanoe lamloh kangham duela cunghang neh khokha neh duek uh ni. Te vaengah te thaephoeinah la, imsuep la, rhunkhuennah la kokhahnah la om uh ni.
13 And I have seen after those dwelling in the land of Egypt, as I saw after Jerusalem, with sword, with famine, and with pestilence,
Jerusalem ka cawh bangla Egypt kho kah khosa rhoek te cunghang neh, khokha neh, duektahaw neh ka cawh ni.
14 and there is not an escaped and remaining one of the remnant of Judah, who are entering into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, even to turn back to the land of Judah, to where they are lifting up their soul to return to dwell, for they do not turn back, except those escaping.”
Egypt diklai ah bakuep ham aka cet tih Judah diklai la aka mael Judah kah a meet te hlangyong neh rhaengnaeng om mahpawh. Amih loh mael ham neh khosak ham a hinglu thak mai cakhaw hlangyong rhoek bueng pawt atah mael uh mahpawh,” a ti nah.
15 And they answer Jeremiah—all the men who are knowing that their wives are making incense to other gods, and all the women who are remaining, a great assembly, even all the people who are dwelling in the land of Egypt, in Pathros—saying:
Te vaengah pathen tloe taengah a yuu aka phum te aka ming hlang boeih neh hlangping la muep aka pai huta boeih, Egypt khohmuen Parthros kah khosa pilnam boeih loh Jeremiah te a doo uh tih,
16 “The word that you have spoken to us in the Name of YHWH—we are not listening to you;
Ol he kaimih taengah BOEIPA ming neh na thui dae nang taengkah te ka hnatun uh moenih.
17 for we certainly do everything that has gone out of our mouth, to make incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink-offerings to her, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our heads, in cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem, and—we are satisfied with bread, and we are well, and we have not seen calamity.
Kaimih ka lamloh ol a thoeng bangla boeih ka saii rhoe ka saii uh ni. Vaan boeinu taengah phum ham neh a taengah tuisi doeng ham om. Te vanbangla Judah khopuei rhoek neh Jerusalem tollong ah kaimih neh a pa rhoek loh, ka manghai rhoek neh ka mangpa rhoek loh ka saii uh. Te vaengah buh ka kum uh dongah a then la ka om uh tih boethae ka hmuh uh pawh.
18 And from the time we have ceased to make incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink-offerings to her, we have lacked all, and we have been consumed by sword and by famine,
Vaan boeinu taengah phum ham neh anih taengah tuisi doeng ham ka toeng uh parhi te a cungkuem dongah ka vawt uh tih cunghang neh khokha dongah ka khawk uh.
19 and when we are making incense to the queen of the heavens, and pouring out drink-offerings to her—have we made cakes for her to idolize her, and to pour out drink-offerings to her, without our husbands?”
Te vaengah kaimih loh ka hlang mueh lam nim vaan boeinu ham ka phum uh tih anih taengah tuisi ka doeng uh. A noih ham a anih ham rhaibuh ka khueh tih amah taengah tuisi ka doeng uh?” a ti uh.
20 And Jeremiah says to all the people, concerning the men and concerning the women, and concerning all the people who are answering him, saying,
Te vaengah Jeremiah loh pilnam pum taengkah tongpa rhoek te khaw, huta rhoek te khaw, ol neh anih aka doo pilnam boeih te khaw a thui pah.
21 “The incense that you made in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you, and your fathers, your kings, and your heads, and the people of the land, has YHWH not remembered it? Indeed, it comes up on His heart.
“Judah khopuei khui neh Jerusalem tollong ah na phum uh te hmueih moenih a? Nangmih neh na pa rhoek, na manghai rhoek neh na mangpa rhoek, a khohmuen kah pilnam te BOEIPA loh a thoelh tih a lungbuei loh a dueh ta.
22 And YHWH is not able to accept [you] anymore, because of the evil of your doings, because of the abominations that you have done, and your land is for a ruin, and for an astonishment, and for a reviling, without inhabitant, as [at] this day.
Nangmih kah khoboe thaenah hman ah BOEIPA koep a duen uh ham a coeng moenih. Tueilaehkoi hman ah na saii uh dongah ni na khohmuen te imrhong la, imsuep la, rhunkhuennah la poeh tih tahae khohnin kah bangla khosa a om pawh.
23 Because that you have made incense, and because you have sinned against YHWH, and have not listened to the voice of YHWH, and have not walked in His law, and in His statutes, and in His testimonies, therefore this calamity has met you as [at] this day.”
Na phum uh hman ah khaw BOEIPA taengah na tholh bal pueng. BOEIPA ol te na hnatun uh pawt tih a olkhueng neh a khosing dongah khaw, a olphong dongah khaw na pongpa uh pawh. Te dongah tahae khohnin kah bangla yoethae loh nangmih n'doe,” a ti nah.
24 And Jeremiah says to all the people, and to all the women, “Hear a word of YHWH, all Judah who [are] in the land of Egypt:
Te phoeiah Jeremiah loh pilnam boeih neh huta boeih te, “Egypt khohmuen kah Judah boeih, BOEIPA ol te hnatun uh.
25 Thus spoke YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel, saying, You and your wives both speak with your mouth, and with your hands have fulfilled, saying, We certainly execute our vows that we have vowed, to make incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink-offerings to her. You certainly establish your vows, and certainly execute your vows.
Israel Pathen caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. “Namamih neh na yuu rhoek khaw na ka neh na thui tih na kut neh na khah uh. 'Vaan boeinu taengah phum ham neh anih taengah tuisi doeng ham ka caeng vanbangla ka olcaeng te ka saii rhoe ka saii ni, ' na ti uh. Na olcaeng te na thoh rhoe na thoh uh coeng tih na olcaeng bangla na saii khaw na saii uh coeng,” a ti.
26 Therefore, hear a word of YHWH, all Judah who are dwelling in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by My great Name, said YHWH, My Name is no longer proclaimed by the mouth of any man of Judah, saying, Lord YHWH lives—in all the land of Egypt.
Te dongah Egypt kho kah khosa Judah pum loh BOEIPA ol he hnatun uh. BOEIPA loh, “Ka ming tanglue neh ka toemngam coeng. Egypt khohmuen tom ah ka Boeipa, hingnah Yahovah aka ti Judah hlang boeih te a ka kak neh kai ming aka khue la koep om boel saeh.
27 Behold, I am watching over them for calamity, and not for good, and all the men of Judah who [are] in the land of Egypt have been consumed by sword and by famine, until their consumption.
Amih then sak ham pawt tih thae sak ham ka hak thil coeng ne. Te dongah Egypt kho kah Judah hlang tah boeih khawk uh vetih cunghang loh, khokha loh amih a khah ni.
28 And the escaped of the sword turn back out of the land of Egypt to the land of Judah, few in number, and all the remnant of Judah, who are coming into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, have known whose word is established, Mine or theirs.
cunghang hlangyong te Egypt kho lamloh Judah kho kah hlang sii la mael uh ni. Te vaengah Egypt kho ah bakuep ham aka pawk Judah kah a meet boeih loh amih kah neh kai kah, u ol nim aka thoeng ti khaw a ming uh bitni.
29 And this [is] the sign to you—a declaration of YHWH—that I am seeing after you in this place, so that you know that My words are certainly established against you for calamity—
Nangmih ham miknoek he BOEIPA kah olphong ni. He hmuen ah nangmih te kan cawh coeng. Te daengah ni ka ol tite nangmih taengah boethae la a pai rhoe a pai ham khaw na ming uh eh,” a ti.
30 thus said YHWH: Behold, I am giving Pharaoh-Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those seeking his life, as I have given Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and who is seeking his life.”
BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Judah manghai Zedekiah te a thunkha neh a hinglu aka toem Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar kut ah ka tloeng bangla, Egypt manghai Pharaoh Hophra te a thunkha kut neh a hinglu aka toem kut ah ka tloeng coeng ne.
