Jeremiah 5
1 “Go to and fro in streets of Jerusalem, And see now and know, And seek in her broad places, If you find a man, If there is one doing judgment, Seeking steadfastness—Then I am propitious to her.
Jerusalem khopi sung lampi jousea, dunglhei vailhei unlang, veng ningkoi lah jouse gahol’un. Mihem khatbeh dihtah’a thutan leh lungtheng tah’a thudih hol, namudoh jouleh, keiman ama jal’a akhopi kangaidam ding chuleh kasuhmang luding ahi.
2 And if they say, YHWH lives, Surely they swear to a falsehood.”
Amahon, Pakai chu aitih’a hingjing ahi, tia akihahsel ji vangun, jou leh nal jengin thu aseijiuvin ahi.
3 YHWH, Your eyes, are they not on steadfastness? You have struck them, and they have not grieved, You have consumed them, They have refused to receive instruction, They made their faces harder than a rock, They have refused to turn back.
Vo Pakai, nangman thutah jeng navet lhih jeng ahi. Nangin namite chunga nakhut nalhatan, ahivangin amahon nahsah in aneipouve. Nangin amaho nanoigeptan, ahivangin amahon hichu kisuhdihnan asangpouve. Amaichangu song bangin atah sah un, lungkhel ding aumpouve.
4 And I said, “Surely these [are] poor, They have been foolish, For they have not known the way of YHWH, The judgment of their God.
Hichun keiman kaseitai,’’ Amahohi vaicha leh tahlelte ima hephalou ahiuve. Amaho’a kon’a ipi apha hungpot dingham? Amahon Pakai lampi ahepouvin, chuleh Pathen danthu jong agel phapouve.
5 I go to the great, and I speak with them, For they have known the way of YHWH, The judgment of their God.” Surely they have broken the yoke together, They have drawn away the bands.
Hijeh chun, keima lamkai vaihomte kom’a gachengting, gaseipeh tange. Ajeh chu amaho beh chun Pakai lampi leh Pathen danthu ho henauvinte,’’ kati. Ahivangin, alamkaiteu jong abep ahiuvin, Pathen namkol aheh bongun chuleh akigahnau khao jong abotten un ahiuve.
6 Therefore a lion out of the forest has struck them, A wolf of the deserts spoils them, A leopard is watching over their cities, Everyone who is going out of them is torn, For their transgressions have been many, Their backslidings have been mighty.
Hiche jeh a chu, gammang lah’a kon hungdoh sakeiyin amaho athadiu. Chuleh nelphaiya kon hungdoh kamkei yin amaho akimatdiu ahi. Lutnun akhopi pam’a chang’un tin, khosunga kon’a potdoh tapou abotel ding ahi. Ijeh inem itileh achonsetnau atamvaltan, chuleh Pathen douna aboldoh u anasa behseh jengtai.
7 “I am not propitious to you for this, Your sons have forsaken Me, And are satisfied by [those who are] not gods, I satisfy them, and they commit adultery, And at the house of a harlot They gather themselves together.
Hichea hi, keiman nang iti kangaidam ding nahim? Nachate la keiya kon in ajammang sohtauvin, semthu Pathen angsung’a akihahsel jah jah jotauvin ahi. Keiman amaho kavah vaset ahiuvin; Ahivangin amahon jonthanghoi jeng abol'un chuleh notiho inkot’a akijot lut lut jenguvin ahi,’’ tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
8 Fed horses—they have been early risers, They each neigh to the wife of his neighbor.

9 Do I not lay a charge for these?” A declaration of YHWH, “And on a nation such as this, Does My soul not avenge itself?
Hiche mihohi, keiman iti talen matsah louva kalha ding ham? Chuleh hitobang nam mite chung’a hi, keiman iti phu kalahda ding ham? tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
10 Go up on her walls, and destroy, And I do not make a completion, Turn her branches aside, For they [are] not YHWH’s,
Alengpi leilaiyuva, lengpigui ho agol gol’a kituna lah’a khun, chesuh unlang gasumangun, beihel invang hinlha hih un. Abah chengu abon'in gamallhauvin, ajeh chu amaho hi keiya kon ahipouve.
11 For the house of Israel has dealt treacherously against Me, And the house of Judah,” A declaration of YHWH.
Ijeh inem itileh, Israel insung leh Judah insung mite hi, keiya dinga tahsanna beihel ahiuvin chuleh eidouva pang ahitauve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
12 They have lied against YHWH, And they say, “[It is] not He, Nor does evil come in against us, Indeed, we do not see sword and famine.
Amahon, Pakai aseilep un, hitin aseiyuve. Aman eiho chunga imacha bol ponte. Ichunguva genthei hesohna hunglhung pontin chuleh gal kisat leh kellhah injong eilhunden pouvinte, atiuvin ahi.
13 And the prophets become wind, And the word is not in them, Thus it is done to them.”
Pathen themgao hojong hi ahomkeo bep hiuvin tin, asunguva Pathen thupeh umlou ahitauve. Hijeh a chu, agaothu seidoh’u jong, achunguva chuding ahibouve.
14 Therefore, thus said YHWH, God of Hosts: “Because of your speaking this word, Behold, I am making My words become fire in your mouth, And this people wood, And it has devoured them.

15 Behold, I am bringing against you a nation from afar, O house of Israel,” A declaration of YHWH, “It [is] a strong nation, It [is] an ancient nation, A nation whose tongue you do not know, Nor understand what it speaks.

16 Its quiver [is] as an open tomb, All of them—mighty ones.
Agal manchah hou chu thina lhankot kihonna abang jengin, agalsatteu jong thahattah jeng ahiuve.
17 And it has consumed your harvest and your bread, They consume your sons, and your daughters, It consumes your flock, and your herd, It consumes your vine and your fig tree, It makes your fortified cities poor, In which you are trusting—by the sword.
Amahon, nalousoh ho leh na anneh ding jouse anehgamdiu, amahon nachapateu leh nachanuteu jong abahgamdiu, amahon nakelngoi hon ho leh nagancha ho jouse anehgamdiu, amahon nalengpiga holeh natheiga ho jouse anehgamdiu, chuleh kulpi nakaikhum uva hoidohna khopia nanei jouseu jong abon’a asuhmang hel diu ahi, ati.
18 And even in those days,” A declaration of YHWH, “I do not make you a completion.

19 And it has come to pass, when you say, Why has our God YHWH done all these [things] to us? That you have said to them, As you have forsaken Me, And serve the gods of a foreigner in your land, So you serve strangers in a land [that is] not yours.
Chuleh namiten, ipi jeh’a Pakai i- Pathen u chun ichunguva hitobang hi abol ham, tia adoh teng uleh, nanghon amaho jah’a hitia naseipeh diu; Nanghon Pakai i-Pathen u chu nadondauvin nangho gamsunga gamdang pathen ho najenleuvin ahi. Hiche jeh’a chu, tua hi, nanghon nahetphah louvu migam’a, nahetlou hel u mite naga jenle diu ahi, tin seipeh in ati.
20 Declare this in the house of Jacob, And sound it in Judah, saying,
Hiche thuhi Israel ho lah’a phongjal unlang chuleh Judah te kom’a gaseiphong un.
21 Now hear this, O people, foolish and without heart, They have eyes, and they do not see, They have ears, and they do not hear.
Hiche hi ngaiyun, vo mingol lungthim beiho, mit neiya kho muthei louho chuleh bil neiya kho jathei louho.
22 Do you not fear Me?” A declaration of YHWH; “Are you not pained from My presence? Who has made sand the border of the sea, A perpetual limit, and it does not pass over it, They shake themselves, and they are not able, Indeed, its billows have sounded, and they do not pass over.
Nanghon keima neigin louvu ham? Ipi dinga ka-angsung’a tija tah’a kihot hot lou nahiuvem? Keima Pakaiyin, twikhanglen kinong tinkih nading leh aitih’a twiyin akhokhel lou nadingin, twipi pang’a neldi gamgi kakoiye.

23 And this people has an apostatizing and rebelling heart, They have turned aside, and they go on.

24 And they have not said in their heart, Now let us fear our God YHWH, who is giving rain, The autumn rain and the spring rain, in its season, He keeps the appointed weeks of harvest for us.

25 Your iniquities have turned these away, And your sins have kept the good from you.

26 For the wicked have been found among My people. He watches like one who sets snares, They have set up a trap—they capture men.
Ijeh inem itileh, kamitelah’a migilouteho achengtauve. Gamleng hon sa achanlhih bangun, amahon mi matding achanglhi lhi uvin, thang akampeh un, matding agojing uve.
27 As a cage full of birds, So their houses are full of deceit, Therefore they have been great, and are rich.

28 They have been fat, they have shone, Indeed, they have surpassed the acts of the evil, They have not judged judgment, The judgment of the fatherless—and they prosper, And they have not judged the judgment of the needy.
Amaho athaodoh gam’un, chuleh atahsau jong ajolsel gamtauve. chuleh athilse bolhou chu angahje ahetapouve. Amahon, chagate chung a dihtah’a thutanna adalpih un, chuleh vaicha gentheite ding chanvou jong dihtah in achansah pouve.
29 Do I not inspect for these,” A declaration of YHWH, “On a nation such as this, Does My soul not avenge itself?

30 An astonishing and horrible thing has been in the land:
Hiche gamsunga hin, thil gimneitah leh tijat umtah chu asohtai.
31 The prophets have prophesied falsely, And the priests bear rule by their means, And My people have loved [it] so, And what do they do at its latter end?”
Themgao hon jouthu jeng aseiyun, Thempu hon jong ama dei deiyun vai ahomtauve. Kamiten hitobang hi nadeiyun ahi. Ahivangin ijakai achaina ahunglhun tengleh, ipi naboldiu ham?’’ ati.
