< Jeremiah 16 >

1 The word of YHWH came also to me, saying,
To pacoengah Angraeng ih lok kai khaeah angzoh moe,
2 "You shall not take a wife, neither shall you have sons or daughters, in this place.
hae ahmuen ah zu na la mak ai, caa nongpanawk hoi nongpatanawk doeh na sah mak ai.
3 For thus says YHWH concerning the sons and concerning the daughters who are born in this place, and concerning their mothers who bore them, and concerning their fathers who became their father in this land:
Hae ahmuen ah tapen capanawk hoi canunawk, nihcae tapen amnonawk hoi nihcae sah ampanawk kawng pongah, Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih,
4 They shall die grievous deaths: they shall not be lamented, neither shall they be buried; they shall be as dung on the surface of the ground; and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their dead bodies shall be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth.
nihcae loe kasae duekhaih hoiah dueh o tih; nihcae to qah o haih mak ai, aphum doeh aphum o mak ai; nihcae loe long nuiah aek baktiah ni om o tih; sumsen hoi khokhahaih mah nihcae to paduek tih; nihcae qoknawk loe van ih tavaanawk hoi taw ih moi kasannawk han buh ah om tih.
5 For thus says YHWH, 'Do not enter into the house of mourning, neither go to lament, neither bemoan them; for I have taken away my peace from this people, says YHWH, even loving kindness and tender mercies.
Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; hae kaminawk khae hoiah ka monghaih, amlunghaih hoi palungnathaih to ka lak ving boeh pongah, dueh kami im ah akun hmah, qah haih hmah loe, palung doeh sae haih hmah, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
6 Both great and small shall die in this land; they shall not be buried, neither shall men lament for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them;
Kathoeng kalen tih ai nihcae loe hae prae ah dueh o boih tih; mi mah doeh nihcae to aphum mak ai, qah haih kami doeh om mak ai, nihcae pongah angmah hoi angmah ang aat kami om mak ai, sam aat kami doeh om mak ai.
7 neither shall men break bread for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall men give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother.
Kadueh qah haih kaminawk pathloep hanah, buh thaak pae kami mi doeh om o mak ai; ampa hoi amno to duek pongah palungsae kaminawk pathloep hanah tui boengloeng paek kami doeh om mak ai.
8 You shall not go into the house of feasting to sit with them, to eat and to drink.
Nang loe poihsakhaih ahmuen ah caeh hmah, nihcae hoi doeh nawnto anghnu hmah, nawnto nae hmah loe, caa hmah.
9 For thus says YHWH of hosts, the God of Israel: Look, I will cause to cease out of this place, before your eyes and in your days, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride.
Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah, Khenah, hae ahmuen hoiah anghoehaih lok, oephaih lok, zu la thendoeng ih lok hoi sava sah tangla ih loknawk to nangcae dung hoi nangcae hmaa roe ah ka boengsak han, tiah thuih.
10 It shall happen, when you shall show this people all these words, and they shall tell you, 'Why has YHWH pronounced all this great evil against us? Or what is our iniquity? Or what is our sin that we have committed against YHWH our God?'
Hae kaminawk khaeah hae loknawk hae na thuih pae naah, nihcae mah, Tipongah Angraeng mah hae baktih kalen parai amrohaih kaicae nuiah phaksak loe? Tih hmuen maw ka sakpazae o? Ka Angraeng Sithaw nuiah tih zaehaih maw ka sak o? tiah thuih o naah,
11 Then you shall tell them, 'Because your fathers have forsaken me, says YHWH, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshiped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law;
nihcae khaeah, nam panawk mah kai ang pahnawt o moe, kalah sithawnawk hnukah bang o, nihcae ih tok to a sak pae o moe, a bok o; kai ang pahnawt o moe, ka patuk ih lok to pazui o ai;
12 and you have done evil more than your fathers; for, look, you walk every one after the stubbornness of his evil heart, so that you do not listen to me:
nangcae loe nam panawk pongah kanung kue hmuen to na sak o; khenah, ka lok tahngai han ai ah, kasae angmah ih palung mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah caeh o boih.
13 therefore I will cast you forth out of this land into the land that you have not known, neither you nor your fathers; and there you shall serve other gods day and night; for I will show you no favor.'
To pongah hae prae thung hoiah nangcae hoi nam panawk mah panoek vai ai ih prae ah kang vah o ving han; to ahmuen ah khoving khodai kalah sithawnawk ih tok to na sah o tih; to ahmuen ah kang pahnawt o sut han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
14 Therefore look, the days come," says YHWH, "that it shall no more be said, 'As YHWH lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;'
To pongah, khenah, Israel kaminawk Izip prae hoi zaehoikung, Angraeng loe hing, tiah thuihhaih om mak ai boeh;
15 but, 'As YHWH lives, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the countries where he had driven them.' I will bring them again into their land that I gave to their fathers.
toe kaminawk mah, Aluek bang prae thung hoi Israel caanawk loisakkung, Angraeng loe hing tangtang, tiah thui o tih; nihcae to ampanawk khaeah ka paek ih prae ah ka caeh haih let han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
16 Look, I will send for many fishermen," says YHWH, "and they shall fish them up; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks.
Khenah, pop parai tanga naeh kaminawk to ka patoeh han, nihcae mah tanga naeh baktiah naeh o tih; moi kah kop kaminawk to ka patoeh bae han, nihcae mah moi zoep baktiah mae, maesom hoi thlungkhaw thung boih ah pakrong o tih, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
17 For my eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from my face, neither is their iniquity concealed from my eyes.
Nihcae caehhaih loklam to ka khet boih, nihcae loe ka hmaa hoi anghawk o ving thai ai, nihcae sakpazaehaih doeh ka hnuk han ai ah anghawk thai mak ai.
18 First I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double, because they have polluted my land with the carcasses of their detestable things, and have filled my inheritance with their abominations."
Nihcae mah ka prae to amhnong o sak moe, qawk ah ka toep ih kaimah ih long to panuet thok kadueh qok hoi krang hoiah koi o sak pongah, a sakpazae o haih hoi a zae o haihnawk baktiah alet hnetto ka pathok han.
19 "YHWH, my strength, and my stronghold, and my refuge in the day of affliction, to you shall the nations come from the farthest parts of the earth, and shall say, 'Our fathers have inherited nothing but lies, vanity and things in which there is no profit.
Aw Angraeng, nang loe raihaih ka tong naah ka thacakhaih, ka buephaih kacak sipae ah na oh; long boenghaih ahmuen hoiah Gentel kaminawk nang khaeah angzo o ueloe, Kaicae ampanawk loe lok amlai, tidoeh avang ai, atho kaom ai hmuennawk ni qawk ah toep o tangtang, tiah thui o tih.
20 Shall a man make to himself gods, which yet are no gods?'"
Kami mah Sithaw tang ah kaom ai, sithaw rumramnawk to angmah hanah sak maw?
21 "Therefore look, I will cause them to know, this once will I cause them to know my hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is YHWH.
To pongah, khenah, nihcae to ka panoeksak han, ka ban hoi ka thacakhaih to vaihi nihcae khaeah ka panoeksak han; to naah ni nihcae mah kai ih ahmin loe Angraeng ni, tiah panoek o tih.
