Jeremiah 21
1 The word which came to Jeremiah from YHWH, when king Zedekiah sent to him Pashhur the son of Malchijah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, saying,
Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar ni na tuk toe. BAWIPA ni a lentoenae hno ouk a sak e patetlah kabawp ngainae hah ban sak thai mahoeh namaw, tie hah BAWIPA koe na het pouh seh, telah dei pouh hanelah,
2 "Please inquire of YHWH for us; for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon makes war against us: perhaps YHWH will deal with us according to all his wondrous works, that he may go up from us."
siangpahrang Zedekiah ni Melhiah capa Pashhur hoi Maaseiah capa vaihma Zephaniah hah Jeremiah koevah a patoun. Hatnavah, Jeremiah koevah, BAWIPA e lawk ka phat e teh hettelah ao.
3 Then Jeremiah said to them, "You shall tell Zedekiah:
Jeremiah ni, Zedekiah koevah, hettelah dei pouh awh.
4 'Thus says YHWH, the God of Israel, "Look, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, with which you fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans who besiege you, without the walls; and I will gather them into the midst of this city.
Isarel Cathut BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! Babilon siangpahrang hoi Khaldean tami rapan alawilah hoi na kavennaw, tarantuknae puengcang hoi ka ban sak han. Hahoi khopui thung vah, ahnimouh teh ka pâkhueng han.
5 I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation.
Kama roeroe ni ka lungkhueknae hoi ka lung a onae hoi ka lungphuennae kut hoi ka thaonae hoi ka tuk han.
6 I will strike the inhabitants of this city, both man and animal: they shall die of a great pestilence.
Hie kho dawk kho ka sak e taminaw hoi saringnaw hah be ka thei vaiteh, takikathopounge lacik hoi a due awh han.
7 Afterward," says YHWH, "I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, even such as are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life: and he shall strike them with the edge of the sword; he shall not spare them, neither have pity, nor have mercy."'
Hahoi teh BAWIPA ni siangpahrang Zedekiah hoi a san, kho louk kaawm e lacik hoi tahloi hoi tangkhang hoi kahloutnaw hah Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar kut dawk thoseh, a tarannaw e kut dawk thoseh, thei hanelah katawngnaw kut dawk thoseh, ka poe vaiteh, kahranpoung e tahloi hoi a tuk awh han. Pahrennae tawn laipalah pâhlung mahoeh. Lungmanae hai tawn awh mahoeh telah ati.
8 To this people you shall say, "Thus says YHWH: 'Look, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.
Hahoi tamimaya koevah na dei han, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Khenhaw! duenae lamthung hoi hringnae lamthung hah na hmalah ka hruek.
9 He who remains in this city shall die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence; but he who goes out, and passes over to the Chaldeans who besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall be to him for a prey.
Hete khopui thung kaawm e pueng tahloi hoi thoseh, takang hoi thoseh, lacik hoi thoseh, a due awh han. Hateiteh, a tâco teh nangmouh ka ven e Khaldean taminaw koevah ka kâpoenaw dueng a hring awh han. A hringnae teh ahnimouh koe poe e phu lah ao han.
10 For I have set my face on this city for evil, and not for good,' says YHWH: 'it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.'
Hete khopui hawi nahanelah tho laipalah, a ro nahanelah ka noe e doeh toe. Babilon siangpahrang kut dawk poe lah ao vaiteh, ahni ni hmai hoi a sawi han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
11 Touching the house of the king of Judah, hear the word of YHWH:
Judah siangpahrang imthungnaw kong dawk BAWIPA e lawk hah thai awh haw.
12 'House of David, thus says YHWH, "Execute justice in the morning, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor, lest my wrath go forth like fire, and burn so that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
Oe! Devit imthungnaw, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Hnintangkuem lawkkatang hoi lawkkâceng awh nateh, pacekpahlek e naw kut thung hoi hnephnap kâhmo e naw hah ngang awh, telah nahoeh pawiteh, ka lungkhueknae hah hmai patetlah tâcawt vaiteh, na yon kecu dawk apinihai padout thai laipalah a kak payon han doeh.
13 Look, I am against you, O inhabitant of the valley, and of the rock of the plain," says YHWH; "you that say, 'Who shall come down against us? Or who shall enter into our habitations?'
Khenhaw! tanghling dawk kho kasaknaw, nangmouh tanghling dawk kho ka sak e apimaw kaimouh ka o nah koevah, ka kâen han katetnaw, na taran awh han telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
14 I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings," says YHWH; "and I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shall devour all that is around her."'"
Hateiteh, na sakyoe e hoi kamcu lah ka rek awh han. Atu raw vah, ratu dawk hmai ka tâco sak vaiteh, a tengpam pueng koung a kak han telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
