Jeremiah 51
1 Thus said YHWH: “Behold, I am stirring up against Babylon, And the inhabitants of Leb, My withstanders, A destroying wind,
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! Babilon hoi Khaldean taminaw e lathueng ka raphoekung kahlîkathout a patoun 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.
Babilon lathueng vah para patetlah hut hanelah ka patoun vaiteh, amahoima hah kathoungcalah a hut han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, rawk kahmanae hnin dawk, ahnimouh ni kalup awh vaiteh a tuk awh han.
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.
Licung ka patuem e tami, a licung hah kâkhoe laipalah sum angki kho laihoi kangdout naseh, a thoundounnaw hah buet touh hai pâhlung laipalah a ransanaw pueng hai he pâmit naseh.
4 And the wounded have fallen in the land of the Chaldeans, And the pierced-through in her streets.
Khaldean ram dawk thei vaiteh a rawp awh han, kho thung lamnaw dawk kamlet awh vaiteh, pawk a thut awh han.
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.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarel Tami Kathoung taran laihoi ram teh yonnae hoi ka kawi nakunghai, Isarel hoi Judah teh Cathut ransahu BAWIPA ni cettakhai mahoeh.
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.
Babilon kho thung hoi yawng awh nateh, tami pueng ni mae hringnae kârungngang naseh. Sak payonnae naw dawk rawk kahmanae koe lah hno awh hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni moipathungnae tueng a pha toe. Ama ni moipathung roeroe han toe.
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.
Babilon teh BAWIPA kut dawk e suimanang doeh, talai van pueng ka parui sak e lah ao. Miphunnaw ni misurtui a nei awh dawkvah, miphunnaw e lungthin he a pathu.
8 Babylon has suddenly fallen, Indeed, she is broken, howl for her, Take balm for her pain, perhaps she may be healed.
Babilon teh vaitalahoi a rawp teh a kahma, ahni hanlah khuikap awh. Dam thai nahanelah awm pawiteh, thingtapi tâsi hah lat pouh awh.
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.
Babilon teh hawi sak hanlah ka kâcai, hatei hawi thai hoeh.
10 YHWH has brought forth our righteousnesses, Come, and we recount in Zion the work of our God YHWH.
BAWIPA ni maimae lannae a kamnue sak, tho awh, BAWIPA Cathut ni a sak e hah Zion vah pathang awh sei.
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.
Palanaw hah kata awh nateh, saipheinaw hah patuem awh. BAWIPA ni Midian siangpahrang e muitha hah a thao sak toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a kâcai e teh Babilon raphoe hane doeh, bangtelah tetpawiteh, hethateh BAWIPA ni moipathungnae, bawkim moipathungnae doeh.
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.
Babilon kalupnae a kung koevah tarantuknae lukkarei vo awh. Ringnae sak nateh, ramvengnaw hrueng awh. Pawpnae hah kârakueng awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Babilon vah kaawmnaw taranlahoi BAWIPA ni a dei e hah ama ni a bangnue teh a cum toe.
13 O dweller on many waters, abundant in treasures, Your end has come—the measure of your dishonest gain.
Oe! nang, tui papnae koe kho ka sak ni teh hnopai moipap ka tawn e tami, na poutnae a pha toe, na hringnae rui a pet han toe.
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.
Ransahu BAWIPA ni mahoima noe lahoi thoe a kâbo toe. Samtong patetlah taminaw hoi na kawi sak han, hotnaw ni na hram sin awh han.
15 Making [the] earth by His power, Establishing [the] world by His wisdom, Who by His understanding stretched out the heavens,
A hnotithainae ni talai a sak teh a lungangnae ni talaivan a kangdue sak teh, a thaipanueknae ni kalvan hah a sak.
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 lawk a tâco toteh kalvan hoi tui a cairing teh talai poutnae koehoi tâmai a luen sak. Khorak teh sumpapalik sak Hnoim dawk hoi kahlî a tho sak.
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.
Tami pueng mae lungangnae lahoi teh saring hoi doeh a kâvan. Sui dêikathoum e tam ni sak e meikaphawk ni yeirai a po sak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, meikaphawk a thuk e teh laithoe doeh. Hothah kâha tawn hoeh.
18 They [are] vanity—a work of errors, They perish in the time of their inspection.
Reknae ao toteh, bang hoeh e kâdumnae lah ao teh a kahma han.
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.
Jakop e a ham teh hottelah nahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, bangpuengpa ka sak e lah ao teh, Isarel teh râw lah a coe e miphun doeh. A min teh ransahu Jehovah doeh.
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 teh ka tarantuknae cakâ hoi senehmaica lah na o teh, nang hno lahoi miphunnaw hah ka dêi, nang hno lahoi uknaeramnaw hah ka raphoe han.
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 hno lahoi rangleng dawk kâcuinaw ka khoe teh, nang hno lahoi leng dawk kâcuinaw hah ka khoe.
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 hno lahoi napui tongpanaw ka khoe teh, nang hno lahoi matawng hoi nawsainaw ka khoe. Nang hno lahoi thoundounnaw, tanglanaw hah ka khoe.
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 hno lahoi tukhoumkung hoi tunaw ka khoe teh, nang hno lahoi law kasaknaw e thenaw ka khoe, nang hno lahoi ram ukkungnaw hoi kabawmkungnaw hah ka khoe.
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.
Nange mithmu roeroe vah Zion dawk hawihoehnae a sak awh e naw pueng hah Babilon hoi Khaldean taminaw lathueng vah moi ka pathung han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
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.
Khenhaw! talai van pueng ka raphoe e, Oe! raphoekung kalenpounge mon, kai ni na taran telah BAWIPA ni a dei. Na lathueng vah kut ka dâw vaiteh, ka rasang e lungha koehoi pâlei han. He ka kang e mon patetlah na o 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.
Nang koehoi adu talung hoi takinlung ka lat mahoeh. Hatei yungyoe hoi kingdi lah na o han telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
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.
Hote ram dawk tarantuknae lukkarei vo awh nateh, miphunnaw rahak mongka ueng awh. Ama tuk hanelah miphunnaw kârakueng awh. Ahni tuk hanelah uknaeram pueng kaw awh. Ararat, Minni, Askenaz ramnaw, ama tuk hanelah hram awh, ama tuk hanlah ransanaw tat awh, samtongnaw patetlah marangnaw hah pâkhueng awh.
28 Sanctify against it the nations with the kings of Media, Its governors and all its prefects, And all the land of its dominion.
Ama ka tuk hane miphunnaw kârakueng awh. Midian siangpahrang hoi ka ukkungnaw kahrawikungnaw hoi kâ a tawnnae ramnaw pueng hoi,
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.
Hote ram teh patawnae khang laihoi a pâyaw teh Babilon ram hah kho ka sak e tami awm laipalah pahma hanlah Babilon lathueng BAWIPA ni a kâcai e a cak sak han.
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.
Babilon athakaawme taminaw tarantuk laipalah ao awh teh, rapanimnaw dawk a kâhro awh. Taranhawinae a kahma pouh teh, napui patetlah doeh ao awh toe. A khosaknae hmuennaw he a kak teh tho tarennae pueng a kâkhoe.
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.
Babilon siangpahrang koe, khopui teh avangvanglah hoi he a man awh toe tie dei hanelah patoune ka yawng e ni tami alouke a kâhmo teh patoun e ni alouke bout a kâhmo.
32 And the passages have been captured, And they have burned the reeds with fire, And the men of war have been troubled.
palang rakhannae a rakhan awh teh, lungpumkungnaw hah a sawi awh teh, tarankatuknaw hai he a yawng awh.
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.
Isarel Cathut ransahu BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, Babilon canu teh cangkatinnae hmuen patetlah ao. Nâsittouh ao hoehnahlan cangkatinnae tue a pha han.
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.
Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar ni na ca awh, na ai awh teh, kathounge hlaam lah na coung sak. Khorui patetlah na payawp teh, katui e kaie moi hoi a vawn paha sak teh bout na pâlei awh.
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.
Kai hoi ka thitak kong dawk hawihoehnae thaw he Babilon lathueng awm naseh, telah Zion e kho kasaknaw ni ati awh han. Ka thipaling teh Khaldean taminaw e lathueng awm seh telah, Jerusalem ni ati han.
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.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Nang koe lah kampang vaiteh moi na pathung pouh han. A talî ka hak sak vaiteh, a tuiim hai ka phui sak han.
37 And Babylon has been for heaps, A habitation of dragons, An astonishment, and a hissing, without inhabitant.
Babilon teh songnawng kahrawnguinaw khosaknae, kângairu e, hoi pathoenae, kingdinae hmuen lah ao han.
38 They roar together as young lions, They have shaken themselves as lions’ whelps.
Sendek thakasai patetlah huk awh vaiteh, sendekcanaw patetlah a cairing awh han.
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.
A parui lahun awh navah, rawca ka paca vaiteh, banghai panuek laipalah ka parui sak han, kâhlaw toung laipalah pou a i awh nahan telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
40 “I cause them to go down as lambs to slaughter, As rams with male goats.
Tuca thei hane patetlah ka pâkhi han. Tutan hoi hmaetan patetlah.
41 How Sheshach has been captured, Indeed, the praise of the whole earth is caught, How Babylon has been for an astonishment among nations.
Sheshak teh la e lah ao han, talai van pueng ni oup e hah man e lah ao han. Babilon teh miphunnaw rahak kingdi lah ao han.
42 The sea has come up over Babylon, She has been covered with a multitude of its billows.
Babilon teh tuipui ni a ramuk han. Tuicapa patawpoung lah ka thaw e ni a ramuk han.
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.
A khopuinaw hah raphoe vaiteh, ramke, ram kingdi, tami ohoehnae, tami ca pinihai pâtam boihoeh e ram lah ao han.
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.
Babilon e Bel hah ka rek han. A padoun tangcoung e hai a kâko thung hoi ka rasa vaiteh, miphunnaw ahni koe bout kamkhueng mahoeh toe. Babilon e rapan teh a tip han.
45 Go forth from her midst, O My people, And let each deliver his soul, Because of the fierceness of the anger of YHWH,
Ka taminaw Babilon thung hoi tâcawt awh, takithopoung e BAWIPA lungkhueknae thung hoi mahoima e hringnae kârungngang awh.
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;
Na lungthin tawn hanh naseh, ram dawk e kamthang hai taket hanh awh. Kum touh hoi kum touh kamthang a tho han, siangpahrang hoi siangpahrang kâtuk vaiteh, rektapnae ao han.
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.
Hatdawkvah, khenhaw! Babilon ni thuk e meikaphawknaw lathueng vah lawkkaceng teh a ram pueng kaya laihoi a onae tueng a pha vaiteh, a lathueng vah thei e naw a rawp awh han.
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.
Hat toteh, talai hoi kalvan athung kaawmnaw pueng atunglae ram dawk hoi raphoekungnaw ahnimouh koe a pha han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
49 “As Babylon [has caused the] pierced of Israel to fall, So they of Babylon have fallen, You pierced of all the earth.
Thei e Isarelnaw Babilon ni a rawp sak e patetlah Babilon vah ram dawk e tami thei e naw a rawp awh van han.
50 You escaped of the sword, go on, do not stand, Remember YHWH from afar, And let Jerusalem come up on your heart.
Nangmouh tahloi dawk hoi kahloutnaw, cet awh nateh, duem kangdout rumram awh hanh. Lamhlanae koehoi BAWIPA hah pou panuek awh nateh, a lungthin dawk Jerusalem doun naseh.
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.
Tamthoe lawk ka thai dawkvah, ka kaya teh ka minhmai a mathoe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA im hmuen kathoung dawk ram alouke tami a kâen toe.
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.
Hatdawkvah thai awhaw! ahnimae meikaphawknaw lathueng lawkcengnae hnin hoi a ram pueng lathueng a hmâ patawnae dawk kâhramnae hnin a pha han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
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.
Babilon teh kalvan kâbet totouh a rasang teh, rapan kacakpoung nakunghai, a lathueng vah kai koehoi raphoekung ka pha sak roeroe han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
54 “A voice of a cry [is] from Babylon, And of great destruction from the land of the Chaldean.
Babilon hoi khuikanae kamthang a pha teh, Khaldean ram dawk hoi ka patawpoung e rawk kahmanae kamthang a pha.
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.
BAWIPA ni Babilon hah a raphoe teh, kacaipounge a kamthang hah a roum sak. Ahnimouh kâroenae pawlawk, tui moikapap e pawlawk patetlah ao teh, thouk a hramki awh.
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.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a lathueng hoi Babilon e lathueng raphoekung a pha teh a tami thakasainaw hah a man. Tami pueng e linaw he a khoe pouh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA teh moipathung e Cathut lah ao teh moi a pathung roeroe han.
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.
Kahrawikungnaw, tami lungkaangnaw, ukkungnaw, kabawmkungnaw, hoi tami thakasainaw ka parui sak han. Mat ip awh vaiteh, kâhlaw awh mahoeh toe, telah ka Bawi Poung, a min ransahu siangpahrang Jehovah ni a dei.
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!”
Ransahu BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, Babilon rapan katha poung e tim vaiteh, longkha rasangpoung e he a kak han. A taminaw ni houng laipalah a tawk awh ei, miphunnaw ni hmaisawi hanelah doeh ao.
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 a bawi kum 4 nah Babilon lah a cei nah ahni koe ka cet van e Seraiah, Neraiah capa Maaseiah capa koevah, profet Jeremiah e kâpoe lawk, Bangkongtetpawiteh, Seraiah teh siangpahrang imthung dawk kahrawikung kacue pouh lah ao.
60 and Jeremiah writes all the calamity that comes to Babylon on one scroll—all these words that are written concerning Babylon.
Jeremiah ni Babilon lathueng ka tho hane rawkphainae pueng, Babilon kong dawk a thut e canaw pueng hete cauk dawk a thut.
61 And Jeremiah says to Seraiah, “When you enter Babylon, then you have seen, and have read all these words,
Jeremiah ni Seraiah koevah, Babilon na pha navah, hete lawknaw pueng he touk loe.
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.
Hat toteh, nang ni, Oe BAWIPA hete hmuen taranlahoi apihai, tami hoi saring hai, khosak laipalah ao teh, yungyoe hoi raphoe hanelah lawk na dei toe, telah na ti han.
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,
Hahoi, hete cauk heh na touk toteh, talung hoi pâkhit nateh Euphrates palang dawk na tâkhawng han.
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.
Babilon teh hettelah a bo han. A lathueng vah rawkphainae ka pha sak hane dawkvah, bout thaw mahoeh toe. A hmawtcei awh han telah na dei han, telah atipouh. Hethateh Jeremiah e lawk doeh.
