Jeremiah 22
1 Thus said YHWH: "Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak there this word,
Angraeng mah, Judah siangpahrang im ah caeh tathuk ah loe, to ah hae lok hae thui paeh,
2 Say, 'Hear the word of YHWH, king of Judah, who sits on the throne of David, you, and your servants, and your people who enter in by these gates.
David ih angraeng tangkhang pongah anghnu, Aw Judah siangpahrang, nang, nangmah hoi na tamnanawk, hae khongkha hoiah akun nangmah ih kaminawk boih, Angraeng ih lok to tahngai oh, tiah thuih;
3 Thus says YHWH: "Execute justice and righteousness, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence, to the foreigner, the fatherless, nor the widow; neither shed innocent blood in this place.
Angraeng mah, Toenghaih to sah oh loe, katoengah lok takroek oh; naeh ih kami to pacaekthlaek kami ban thung hoiah pahlong oh; angvin, ampa tawn ai kami hoi lamhmainawk nuiah kahoih ai hmuen to sah o hmah, pacaekthlaek o hmah loe, hae ahmuen ah zaehaih tawn ai kaminawk ih athii to palong o hmah.
4 For if you do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people.
Hae lokpaekhaih hae na pazui o tangtang nahaeloe, David ih angraeng tangkhang pongah anghnu, hrang lakok angthueng kaminawk, hrang angthueng kaminawk, angmah hoi anih ih tamnanawk hoi anih ih kaminawk loe hae im khongkha hoiah akun o tih, tiah thuih.
5 But if you will not hear these words, I swear by myself, says YHWH, that this house shall become a desolation."
Toe hae paek ih loknawk hae na pazui o ai nahaeloe, Hae im loe pong sut tih, tiah kaimah hoi kaimah lokkamhaih ka sak boeh, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
6 For thus says YHWH concerning the house of the king of Judah: "You are Gilead to me, the head of Lebanon. Yet surely I will make you a wilderness, cities which are not inhabited.
Judah siangpahrang ih im kawng pongah, Angraeng mah, Nang loe kai hanah Gilead baktiah na oh, Lebanon ih mae kamsum baktiah na oh; toe praezaek baktih, kami om ai vangpuinawk baktiah kang ohsak han, tiah thuih.
7 I will prepare destroyers against you, everyone with his weapons; and they shall cut down your choice cedars, and cast them into the fire.
Nang amrosak hanah, kami boih angmacae ih maiphaw maica hoiah kang patoeh han, na koeh koek ih sidar thing to nihcae mah pakhruh pae ving ueloe, hmai ah tik o tih.
8 Many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbor, 'Why has YHWH done thus to this great city?'
Hae vangpui taengah kacaeh pop parai prae kaminawk mah, tipongah hae lensawk vangpui hae Angraeng mah to tiah sak vai? tiah maeto hoi maeto angdueng o tih.
9 Then they shall answer, 'Because they forsook the covenant of YHWH their God, and worshiped other gods, and served them.'
To naah nihcae mah, Angmacae Angraeng Sithaw ih lokmaihaih to pahnawt o ving moe, kalah sithawnawk bok o pacoengah, a tok sak pae o pongah ni, to tiah oh, tiah pathim o tih.
10 Do not weep for the dead, neither bemoan him; but weep bitterly for him who goes away; for he shall return no more, nor see his native country."
Sithaw mah kadueh kami siangpahrang Josiah hanah qah o haih hmah, palung doeh sae o haih hmah; toe misong ah kalaem a capa siangpahrang Jehoahaz hanah qah o haih ah; tipongah tih nahaeloe anih loe amlaem let mak ai boeh, a prae doeh hnu let mak ai boeh.
11 For thus says YHWH touching Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned instead of Josiah his father, and who went forth out of this place: "He shall not return there any more.
Ampa Josiah zuengah prae ka uk, hae prae thung hoiah tacawt, Judah siangpahrang, Josiah capa Shallum ih kawng pongah, Angraeng mah, anih loe hae ah amlaem let mak ai boeh,
12 But in the place where they have led him captive, there shall he die, and he shall see this land no more."
nihcae mah misong ah hoih o ih prae ah ni dueh tih, hae prae hae hnu let mak ai boeh, tiah a thuih.
13 Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness, and his rooms by injustice; who uses his neighbor's service without wages, and doesn't give him his hire;
Toeng ai ah im sah kami, toeng ai ah imkhaannawk sah kami, imtaeng kami azom ah toksahsak kami, toksakhaih atho paek ai kami, siangpahrang Jehoiakim loe khosak bing!
14 who says, "I will build me a wide house and spacious rooms," and cuts him out windows; and it is ceiling with cedar, and painted with vermilion.
Anih mah, kalen parai im hoi imkhaannawk to ka sak han, tiah thuih moe, thokbuen to a buemh, sidar thing hoiah tapang to tapang pacoengah, rong kamling tasi to a nok.
15 Shall you reign, because you strive to excel in cedar? Did not your father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well with him.
Sidar thing oephaih hoiah maw siangpahrang ah na oh? Nam pa loe caaknaek tawn ai maw? Anih loe toenghaih hoiah toksak moe, katoengah lok takroek pongah, khosak hoihaih to a hnuk.
16 He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well. Wasn't this to know me?' says YHWH.
Anih loe kamtang hoi kavawt kaminawk hanah toenghaih hoiah lokcaek; to pongah khosak hoihaih to a hnuk; kai panoekhaih atho loe to tiah na ai maw oh? tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
17 "But your eyes and your heart are not but for your covetousness, and for shedding innocent blood, and for oppression, and for violence, to do it."
Toe nang ih mik hoi na palung loe, hmuenmae koeh hmoekhaih, zae tawn ai kami humhaih, pacaekthlaekhaih, tha hoi minawk ih hmuenmae lomhhaih bang khue ah oh.
18 Therefore thus says YHWH concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah: "they shall not lament for him, saying, 'Alas my brother. or, Alas sister.' They shall not lament for him, saying, 'Alas lord.' or, 'Alas his majesty.'
To pongah Josiah capa Judah siangpahrang, Jehoiakim kawng pongah, Mi mah doeh Oe, kam nawk, Oe, ka tanuh, tiah anih to qah o haih mak ai; Oe, ka angraeng, Oe, a lensawkhaih, tiah palung doeh sae o haih mak ai, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
19 He shall be buried with the burial of a donkey, drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
Anih to Jerusalem khongkha tasa bangah va o ueloe, laa hrang aphum baktiah aphum o tih.
20 Go up to Lebanon, and cry; and lift up your voice in Bashan, and cry from Abarim; for all your lovers are destroyed.
Lebanon ah caeh tahang ah loe, hang ah; Bashan ah hang ah, nam puinawk amro o boih boeh pongah, Abarim hoiah hang ah.
21 I spoke to you in your prosperity; but you said, 'I will not hear.' This has been your way from your youth, that you did not obey my voice.
Khosak hoih nathuem ah kang thuih boeh; toe ka tahngai mak ai, tiah nang naa. Hae loe nawkta nathuem hoi kaom na tuinuen roe boeh ni; ka lok hae na tahngai ai.
22 The wind shall feed all your shepherds, and your lovers shall go into captivity: surely then you will be ashamed and confounded for all your wickedness.
Nang ih tuutoep kaminawk loe takhi mah hmut boih ueloe, nam puinawk doeh misong ah laem o tih; na sethaih pongah azathaih na tongh ueloe ahmin sae tih.
23 Inhabitant of Lebanon, who makes your nest in the cedars, how greatly you will groan when pangs come on you, the pain as of a woman in travail.
Aw Lebanon ah kaom, sidar thingnawk ah tabu sah kaminawk, nangcae nuiah nathaih phak naah loe, kawkruk maw nongpata caa tapen nathuem ih kana baktiah na hang o tih!
24 As I live," says YHWH, "though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet on my right hand, yet would I pluck you there;
Angraeng mah, Kai ka hing pongah Judah siangpahrang Jehoikim ih capa Koniah loe, ka bantang ban angmathaih bantuek ah oh, toe kang khringh ving moe,
25 and I will give you into the hand of those who seek your life, and into the hand of them of whom you are afraid, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
na hinghaih pakrong kami, na zit parai ih, Babylon siangpahrang Nebuchadnezzar hoi Khaldian kaminawk ban ah ka paek han.
26 I will cast you out, and your mother who bore you, into another country, where you were not born; and there you will die.
Nangmah hoi nang tapenkung nam no to na tapenhaih prae ai, prae kalah ah kang haek hoi han, nanghnik loe to ah na dueh hoi tih.
27 But to the land whereunto their soul longs to return, there shall they not return."
Amlaem let han na koeh hoi parai ih prae ah natuek naah doeh nam laem hoi let mak ai boeh, tiah a thuih.
28 Is this man Coniah a despised broken vessel? Is he a vessel in which none delights? Why are they cast out, he and his descendants, and cast into a land that they do not know?
Hae kami loe azat paek han kaom ai, mi mah doeh koeh ai ih kami, minawk mah patoek moe, sakcop ih krang ah kaom Koniah na ai maw? Tipongah angmah hoi a caanawk to haek moe, nihcae mah panoek vai ai ih prae ah vah o ving loe?
29 O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of YHWH.
Aw long, long, long, Angraeng ih lok to tahngai oh!
30 Thus says YHWH, "Write this man down childless, a man who will not succeed in his days; for none of his descendants will succeed in sitting on the throne of David, and ruling in Judah.
Angraeng mah, Hae kami loe caa tawn ai, a hing thung khosak hoih ai kami, a caanawk loe khosak hoih kami om o mak ai; mi kawbaktih doeh David ih angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnu o mak ai ueloe, Judah prae doeh uk o mak ai boeh, tiah tarik ah, tiah a thuih.
