Jeremiah 51
1 Thus said YHWH: “Behold, I am stirring up against Babylon, And the inhabitants of Leb, My withstanders, A destroying wind,
Angraeng mah, Khenah, Babylon hoi a thungah kaom kaminawk to tuk hanah, amrosak thaih takhi to kang thawksak han;
2 And I have sent fanners to Babylon, And they have fanned her, and they empty her land, For they have been against her, All around—in the day of evil.
takhi hawhhaih paqa to Babylon ah ka patoeh han, anih mah prae to haw ueloe, amrosak boih tih; raihaih tongh na niah a taeng ih kaminawk mah anih to misa ah suem tih.
3 Do not let the treader tread his bow, Nor lift himself up in his coat of mail, Nor have pity on her young men, Devote all her host to destruction.
Kalii avak kami loe angmah ih kalii to takoih nasoe, angmah angvaenghaih to angkhuk pacoengah, kaat nasoe; anih ih thendoengnawk to pathlung pae hmah; anih ih misatuh kaminawk to tamit pae boih ah.
4 And the wounded have fallen in the land of the Chaldeans, And the pierced-through in her streets.
Hum ih kami loe Khaldian prae ah amtim tih, nihcae to loklamnawk ah thun o tih.
5 For Israel and Judah are not forsaken By his God—by YHWH of Hosts, For their land has been full of guilt, Against the Holy One of Israel.
Prae loe Israel Ciimcai Kaminawk hmaa ah zaehaih hoiah koi, toe angmah ih Sithaw mah Israel hoi Judah to pahnawt ai vop.
6 Flee from the midst of Babylon, And let each deliver his soul, Do not be cut off in her iniquity, For it [is] a time of vengeance for YHWH—His, He is rendering repayment to her.
Babylon vangpui thung hoiah cawn oh! Kami boih a hinghaih pahlong hanah cawn oh! Anih zaehaih pongah amro o hmah; vaihi tue loe Angraeng lu lakhaih tue ah oh baktiah, a nuiah kating ah sah pathok let tih.
7 Babylon [is] a golden cup in the hand of YHWH, Making all the earth drunk, Nations have drunk of her wine, Therefore nations boast themselves.
Babylon loe Angraeng ban ah kaom long pum paquisak thaih, sui boengloeng ah oh; kami congca mah to misurtui to naek o moe, paquih o; to pongah prae kaminawk loe amthu o boih boeh.
8 Babylon has suddenly fallen, Indeed, she is broken, howl for her, Take balm for her pain, perhaps she may be healed.
Babylon loe akra ai ah amtimh moe, amro boeh; anih han qah o haih ah! Ahmaa kana nok pae hanah tasii to la pae oh, to tih nahaeloe ngantui khoe doeh om tih, tiah thuih.
9 We healed Babylon, and she was not healed, Forsake her, and we go, each to his land, For her judgment has come to the heavens, And it has been lifted up to the clouds.
Angvinnawk mah, Babylon ih ahmaa hoih thai hanah a sak o, toe hoih thai ai; anih to caeh o taak ah, aimah prae ah caeh o boih si boeh; anih lokcaekhaih loe van khoek to phak boeh, tamai ohhaih van khoek to dawh tahang boeh.
10 YHWH has brought forth our righteousnesses, Come, and we recount in Zion the work of our God YHWH.
Angraeng mah aicae toenghaih to sak boeh; angzo oh, aicae Angraeng Sithaw mah sak ih tok to Zion ah thui o si, tiah thuih o.
11 Cleanse the arrows, fill the shields, YHWH has stirred up the spirit of the kings of Media, For His purpose [is] against Babylon to destroy her, For it [is] the vengeance of YHWH, The vengeance of His temple.
Palaa to kanoe ah taak oh loe, angvaenghaih aphaw to avak oh! Babylon to phraek han koeh pongah, Angraeng mah Medes siangpahrangnawk ih palungthin to pahruek boeh; hae loe Angraeng mah lu lakhaih ah oh moe, a tempul lu lakhaih ah oh.
12 Lift up an ensign to the walls of Babylon, Strengthen the watch, Establish the watchers, prepare the ambush, For YHWH has both devised and done that which He spoke, Concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.
Babylon sipae nuiah kahni to payang oh! Pop parai misa toep kami to suem oh, misa toephaih im to kacakah sah oh loe, imtoep misatuh kaminawk to suem oh; Angraeng loe Babylon tuk hanah takroek ih lok baktih toengah sah tangtang tih.
13 O dweller on many waters, abundant in treasures, Your end has come—the measure of your dishonest gain.
Aw pop parai tui nuiah kaom hmuenmae angraenghaih hoiah khosah kami, na boenghaih atue to angzoh boeh moe, na khithaih qui apethaih atue doeh phak boeh.
14 YHWH of Hosts has sworn by Himself, That, Surely I have filled you [with] men as the cankerworm, And they have cried against you—shouting.
Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw loe angmah hoi angmah lokkamhaih to sak boeh; pop parai pakhu baktiah, kaminawk hoiah kang koisak han; nihcae mah na hang o thui tih.
15 Making [the] earth by His power, Establishing [the] world by His wisdom, Who by His understanding stretched out the heavens,
Anih mah long hae thacakhaih hoiah sak; palung a hahaih hoiah long hae caksak moe, a panoekhaih hoiah van hae payuengh tahang.
16 At the voice He gives forth, A multitude of waters [are] in the heavens, And He causes vapors to come up from the end of the earth, He has made lightnings for rain, And He brings out wind from His treasures.
A lok pathok naah, katuen parai tui baktiah van ah atuenh to oh; long boenghaih hoiah tamai to tacawtsak tahang; khotui hoi tangphra to a pueksak moe, angmah ih hmuenmae suekhaih imthung hoiah takhi to tacawtsak.
17 Every man has been brutish by knowledge, Everyone has been put to shame—from refining a carved image, For his molten image [is] falsehood, And there is no breath in them.
Kaminawk loe angmacae thoemhaih hoiah amthu o boih boeh; sui sahkungnawk loe a sak o ih krangnawk pongah a zat paw o boeh; a sak o ih krang loe a linghaih ah oh moe, anghahhaih takhi doeh tawn o ai.
18 They [are] vanity—a work of errors, They perish in the time of their inspection.
To krangnawk loe azom pui ni; alinghaih hmuen ah ni oh o; nihcae thuitaekhaih ni phak naah loe, to hmuennawk to anghmaa tih.
19 The Portion of Jacob [is] not like these, For He is forming the whole, And [Israel is] the tribe of His inheritance, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name.
Jakob ih taham Sithaw loe to hmuennawk hoiah anghmong ai; anih loe hmuen boih sahkung Sithaw ah oh pongah, Israel loe angmah ih qawktoep kami ah oh; anih ih ahmin loe misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, tiah oh.
20 You [are] My shatterer—weapons of war, And I have broken in pieces nations by you, And I have destroyed kingdoms by you,
Nang loe misa ka tukhaih caka hoi maiphaw maica ah na oh; nang patohhaih hoiah prae kaminawk to ka khuek moe, nang rang hoiah praenawk to kam rosak;
21 And I have broken in pieces horse and its rider by you, And I have broken in pieces chariot and its charioteer by you,
nang hoiah ni hrang hoi a nuiah angthueng kaminawk to ka dueksak moe, nang hoiah ni hrang lakok hoi a nuiah angthueng kami to ka hum han,
22 And I have broken in pieces man and woman by you, And I have broken in pieces old and young by you, And I have broken in pieces young man and virgin by you,
nang hoiah ni nongpa hoi nongpata to ka hum han, nang hoiah ni nawkta hoi mitong to ka paduek moe, nang hoiah ni thendoeng hoi tangla doeh ka paduek han;
23 And I have broken in pieces shepherd and his drove by you, And I have broken in pieces farmer and his team by you, And I have broken in pieces governors and prefects by you.
nang hoiah ni tuutoepkung hoi tuunawk to ka boh moe, nang hoiah ni lawktawn kami hoi maitaw tae to ka boh han; nang hoiah ni misatuh angraengnawk hoi ukkungnawk to ka hum han.
24 And I have repaid to Babylon, And to all inhabitants of Chaldea, All the evil that they have done in Zion, Before your eyes,” a declaration of YHWH.
Babylon hoi Khaldian kaminawk mah, Zion ah sak o ih zaehaih pongah, nangcae hma roe ah nihcae to ka thuitaek han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
25 “Behold, I [am] against you, O destroying mountain,” A declaration of YHWH, “That is destroying all the earth, And I have stretched out My hand against you, And I have rolled you from the rocks, And given you for a burnt mountain.
Aw long pum phraekung, amrosak thaih mae nang, nang hae misa ah kang suek, tiah Angraeng mah thuih; na nuiah ban ka payangh moe, amngoe hoiah kang palet han, hmai mah kangh ih mae baktiah kang sak han.
26 And they do not take out of you a stone for a corner, And a stone for foundations, For you are continuous desolations,” A declaration of YHWH.
Im taki ah thling han ih thlung to, nang thung hoiah la mak ai ueloe, im angdoethaih thlung doeh nang thung hoiah la mak ai; nang loe dungzan ah nam ro tih boeh, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
27 “Lift up an ensign in the land, Blow a horn among nations, Sanctify nations against it, Summon against it the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz, Appoint an infant head against it, Cause the horse to ascend as the rough cankerworm.
Prae thungah kahni payang oh! Prae kaminawk salakah mongkah to ueng oh! Prae kaminawk anih tuk hanah amsak oh, Ararat, Minni hoi Ashkenaz prae kaminawk nawnto angpop oh loe, anih tuk hanah misatuh angraeng maeto qoi oh; ahin kamtaak pakhu angpoeng baktiah hrang angthueng kaminawk to misatuk hanah caeh o sak tahang ah.
28 Sanctify against it the nations with the kings of Media, Its governors and all its prefects, And all the land of its dominion.
Prae kaminawk boih mah anih tuk hanah, Medes siangpahrangnawk, misatuh angraengnawk, prae ukkungnawk mah uk ih praenawk boih, amsak o sak ah.
29 And the land shakes, and it is pained, For the purposes of YHWH have stood against Babylon, To make the land of Babylon a desolation without inhabitant.
Babylon prae loe anghuenh ueloe, palungsethaih om tih; Babylon prae loe kami om ai, amrosak hanah, Angraeng mah sak atimhaih Babylon nuiah phasak tih.
30 The mighty of Babylon have ceased to fight, They have remained in strongholds, Their might has failed, they have become [as] women, They have burned her dwelling places, Her bars have been broken.
Thacak Babylon misatuh kaminawk loe misatukhaih to toengh o sut moe, sipae thungah akuep o boih; nihcae loe thazok o sut boeh; nongpata baktiah ni oh o boeh; anih ohhaih ahmuennawk to hmai hoiah thlaek o moe, thok takraenghaih thingnawk doeh angkhaeh boih boeh.
31 Runner runs to meet runner, And announcer to meet announcer, To announce to the king of Babylon, For his city has been captured—at the extremity.
Anih ih vangpui loe lak boeh, tiah Babylon siangpahrang khaeah thuih pae hanah, tamthang thui kami maeto pacoeng maeto khaeah a caeh o moe, patoeh ih kami maeto pacoeng maeto khaeah a cawnh o,
32 And the passages have been captured, And they have burned the reeds with fire, And the men of war have been troubled.
loklam to pakaa o khoep moe, sakrungkung baktiah kaom akungnawk ohhaih ahmuen to hmai hoiah thlaek o, misatuh kaminawk doeh zithaih hoiah oh o.
33 For thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: The daughter of Babylon [is] as a threshing-floor, The time of her threshing—yet a little [while], And the time of her harvest has come.
Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah, Babylon canu loe cang atithaih ahmuen baktiah oh, anih atithaih atue loe phak boeh, akra ai ah anih cang aahhaih atue pha tih boeh, tiah thuih.
34 Devoured us, crushed us, has Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, He has set us [as] an empty vessel, He has swallowed us as a dragon, He has filled his belly with my delicacies, He has driven us away.
Babylon siangpahrang Nebuchadnezzar mah kai hae ang paaeh moe, ang tit pacoengah, laom kok baktiah ang suek sut; pahui baktiah ang paaeh moe, ka ngan hoiah zok amhah pacoengah, tasa bangah ang pathak sut.
35 My wrong, and [that of] my flesh, [is] on Babylon—The inhabitant of Zion says; And my blood [is] on the inhabitants of Chaldea—Jerusalem says.
Ka nuiah a sak ih athii longhaih to Babylon nuiah om nasoe, tiah Zion kaminawk mah thuih o; Jerusalem mah doeh, ka nuiah sak ih athii longhaih loe Khaldian kaminawk nuiah om nasoe, tiah thuih o.
36 Therefore, thus said YHWH: Behold, I am pleading your cause, And I have avenged your vengeance, And dried up her sea, and made her fountains dry.
To pongah Angraeng mah, Khenah, nang to kang sak haih moe, lu kang lak pae han; anih ih tuipui to ka kangsak moe, anih ih tuibaap tuinawk doeh ka kangsak han, tiah thuih.
37 And Babylon has been for heaps, A habitation of dragons, An astonishment, and a hissing, without inhabitant.
Babylon loe kamro hmuenmae suek cuuhaih ahmuen, tasuinawk ohhaih ahmuen, dawnraihaih ahmuen, pahnui thuihaih ahmuen hoi kami om ai angqai krang ahmuen ah om tih.
38 They roar together as young lions, They have shaken themselves as lions’ whelps.
Nihcae loe kaipui baktiah nawnto hang o ueloe, kaipui caanawk baktiah hang o tih.
39 In their heat I make their banquets, And I have caused them to drink, so that they exult, And have slept a continuous sleep, And do not awaken,” a declaration of YHWH.
Nihcae anglawt ai, dungzan ah iih o poe hanah, palung angthawk o li naah, nihcae hanah poih to ka sak pae moe, ka paquisak boih han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
40 “I cause them to go down as lambs to slaughter, As rams with male goats.
Boh hanah hoih ih tuucaa baktih, tuu taenawk hoi maeh taenawk baktiah ka hoih tathuk han.
41 How Sheshach has been captured, Indeed, the praise of the whole earth is caught, How Babylon has been for an astonishment among nations.
Kawbangmaw Sheshak vangpui to lak o moe, long pum kamthang vangpui to a lak o? Kawbangmaw Babylon loe prae kaminawk salakah dawnrai koiah oh halat!
42 The sea has come up over Babylon, She has been covered with a multitude of its billows.
Babylon nuiah tuipui angthawk moe, kangthawk tuiphu mah anih to khuk khoep boeh.
43 Her cities have been for a desolation, A dry land, and a wilderness, A land—none dwell in them, Nor does a son of man pass over into them.
Anih ih vangpuinawk loe amrohaih ahmuen, prae karoem ahmuen, praezaek ahmuen, kami om ai ahmuen, kami caeh ai ih ahmuen ah om tih boeh.
44 And I have seen after Bel in Babylon, And I have brought forth that which he swallowed—from his mouth, And nations no longer flow to him, Also the wall of Babylon has fallen.
Babylon ih Bel sithaw doeh ka thuitaek moe, anih mah paaeh ving ih hmuen to ka pathaksak let han; prae kaminawk loe anih khaeah caeh o mak ai boeh; ue, Babylon sipae loe amtim tih boeh, tiah thuih.
45 Go forth from her midst, O My people, And let each deliver his soul, Because of the fierceness of the anger of YHWH,
Kai ih kaminawk, anih to tacawt o taak ah; kanung parai Angraeng palungphuihaih thung hoiah kami boih hinghaih to pahlong oh.
46 And lest your heart be tender, And you are afraid of the report that is heard in the land, And the report has come in [one] year, And after it [another] report in [another] year, And violence [is] in the land, ruler against ruler;
Prae thung hoi thaih ih tamthang lok pongah, palung boeng o sak hmah loe, zii doeh zii o hmah; tamthang loe saningto pacoeng saningto thaih o tih; ukkung maeto hoi maeto misa angtukhaih, prae thungah athii longhaih to om tih.
47 Therefore, behold, days are coming, And I have seen after the carved images of Babylon. And all its land is ashamed, And all its pierced ones fall in its midst.
Babylon ih krangnawk nuiah ka thuitaekhaih to pha tih; prae boih dawnrai o ueloe, vangpui thungah kami pop parai duekhaih to om tih.
48 And heavens and earth and all that [is] in them Have cried aloud against Babylon, For the spoilers come to her from the north,” A declaration of YHWH.
Aluek bang hoiah anih tuh kaminawk angzoh o naah, van hoi long ah kaom kaminawk boih mah Babylon anghoehaih laa to sah o tih, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
49 “As Babylon [has caused the] pierced of Israel to fall, So they of Babylon have fallen, You pierced of all the earth.
Babylon pongah Israel kaminawk hum o baktih toengah, long pum ih kaminawk doeh Babylon vangpui ah hum o tih.
50 You escaped of the sword, go on, do not stand, Remember YHWH from afar, And let Jerusalem come up on your heart.
Nangcae sumsen hoi loih kaminawk, angdoe o sut hmah, caeh o ving ah; prae kangthla hoiah Angraeng to poek oh loe, Jerusalem doeh palung thungah poek oh.
51 We have been ashamed, for we heard reproach, Shame has covered our faces, For strangers have come in against the sanctuaries of the house of YHWH.
Kaicae loe kasaethuihaih ka thaih o pongah, azathaih hoiah ka oh o, azathaih mah kaicae ih mikhmai to khuk khoep boeh; angvinnawk loe Angraeng im hmuenciim ah akun o boeh.
52 Therefore, behold, days are coming,” A declaration of YHWH, “And I have seen after her carved images, And the wounded groan in all her land.
Toe khenah, Babylon ih krangnawk nuiah lok ka caekhaih aninawk to pha ueloe, prae boih ih ahmaa caa kaminawk to hang o tih.
53 Because Babylon goes up to the heavens, And because she fortifies the high place of her strength, Spoilers come into her from Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
Babylon loe van khoek to phak boeh, kacakah sipae thungh o tahang langlacadoeh, anih paro kaminawk to ka patoeh han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
54 “A voice of a cry [is] from Babylon, And of great destruction from the land of the Chaldean.
Babylon hoiah qahhaih lok to angzoh moe, kalen parai amrohaih to Khaldian kaminawk prae thung hoiah angzoh;
55 For YHWH is spoiling Babylon, And has destroyed her great voice, And her billows have sounded as many waters, Their voice has given forth a noise.
Angraeng mah Babylon to phraek boeh pongah, kalen parai tuinawk baktiah anih ih tuiphu angthawk tahang naah, katuen parai moe, kalen parai anih ih lok to Angraeng mah diisak tih;
56 For a spoiler has come in against her—against Babylon, And her mighty ones have been captured, Their bows have been broken, For the God of recompenses—YHWH—certainly repays.
Babylon phraekung to angzoh pongah, thacak angmah ih misatuh kaminawk to naeh o moe, kaliinawk to khaeh pae o boih; Angraeng loe lu la Sithaw ah oh, anih mah lu la tangtang tih.
57 And I have caused her princes to drink, And her wise men, her governors, And her prefects, and her mighty ones, And they have slept a continuous sleep, And they do not awaken—an affirmation of the King, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name.
Anih ih angraengnawk, palungha kaminawk, misatuh angraengnawk, prae ukkungnawk, thacak kaminawk to ka paquisak han; nihcae loe angthawk o mak ai, dungzan khoek to iip o poe tih, tiah misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, tiah ahmin kaom, Siangpahrang mah thuih.
58 Thus said YHWH of Hosts: The wall of Babylon—The broad one—is made utterly bare, And her high gates are burned with fire, And peoples labor in vain, And nations in fire, and have been weary!”
Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng mah, Babylon ih kathah sipaenawk to amrosak tih, prae kaminawk mah patangkhanghaih hoiah sak o ih, kasang khongkhanawk doeh hmai mah kang tih; kaminawk loe azom pui ah ni toksah o tih, tiah thuih.
59 The word that Jeremiah the prophet has commanded Seraiah son of Neriah, son of Maaseiah, in his going with Zedekiah king of Judah to Babylon, in the fourth year of his reign—and Seraiah [is] a quiet prince;
Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah ukhaih saning palito haih naah, Jeremiah loe siangpahrang hoi nawnto Babylon ah caeh, to naah Maseiah capa Neriah, Neriah capa angraeng Seraiah khaeah Jeremiah mah thuih ih lok loe hae tiah oh.
60 and Jeremiah writes all the calamity that comes to Babylon on one scroll—all these words that are written concerning Babylon.
Babylon nuiah kaom han koi amrohaih hae loknawk boih loe Jeremiah mah tarik.
61 And Jeremiah says to Seraiah, “When you enter Babylon, then you have seen, and have read all these words,
Jeremiah mah Seraiah khaeah, Babylon ah na phak naah, hae loknawk boih hae kroek paeh;
62 and have said: YHWH, You have spoken concerning this place, to cut it off, that there is none dwelling in it, from man even to livestock, for it is a continuous desolation.
Aw Angraeng, hae ahmuen ah kami doeh, taw ih moisan doeh, oh han ai ah phraek boih moe, dungzan khoek to kam rosak poe han, tiah lok na thuih boeh, tiah lawkthui ah.
63 And it has come to pass, when you finish reading this scroll, you bind a stone to it, and have cast it into the midst of the Euphrates,
Hae cabu na kroek pacoengah, thlung hoi nawnto kom ah loe, Euphrates vapui thungah vah ah;
64 and said, Thus Babylon sinks, and she does not arise, because of the calamity that I am bringing in against it, and they have been weary.” Until now [are the] words of Jeremiah.
Babylon loe to tiah amtim tih, anih loe a nuiah ka phaksak han ih amrohaih hoiah angthawk let mak ai boeh; vangpui kaminawk loe thazok o tih, tiah thuih paeh, tiah a naa. Jeremiah ih lok loe hae ah boeng boeh.
