Jeremiah 39
1 In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, came Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon and all his force against Jerusalem, and they besieged it.
Judah lengpa Zedekiah lengpa lengvaipoh kumko lhinkum, lhasom lhin in, Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar leh asepaite ahung kon uvin, Jerusalem khopi ahin delkhum tauvin ahi.
2 In the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month on the ninth of the month, was the city broken into.
Chuchejou kumni leh keh lhinkum, Zedekiah lengvaipoh kumsom lekhat lhinkum, lhali lhin in, Babylon miten Jerusalem kulpi bang munkhat ahin vokeh uvin, khopi sung chu alotauvin ahi.
3 Then came in all the princes of the king of Babylon, and sat in the middle gate, —Nergal-sharezer, Samgar-nebo, Sarsechim, chief eunuch Nergal-sharezer, chief soothsayer, and all the residue of the princes of the king of Babylon.
Hichun Babylon sepaite leh avaipoteu, abonchauvin khopi sunga ahung lut uvin, kelkot lailha pen’a chun atoudentauve. Amaho chu: Nergar-sharezer samgar, Nebo-Sarsekim, Nergar-sharezer dangkhat toh chuke gamvaipo dang dangho toh ahiuve.
4 And it came to pass as soon as Zedekiah king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, that they fled, and went forth by night out of the city, by way of the king’s garden, through the gate between the two walls, —and he went forth by way of the waste plain.
Judah lengpa leh asepaiten, Babylon mite khopi sunga ahunglut’u chu amu-uvin, abonchauvin ajamdoh tauve. Amahon jan muthim noiya chun, kulpi bang teni kikah a kum kelkot chu ajotpaiyun, lengpa honlei lampia acheuvin, Jordan phaicham ajontauvin ahi.
5 But the force of the Chaldeans pursued them, and overtook Zedekiah in the waste plains of Jericho, and when they had taken him, they brought him up unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, to Riblah, in the land of Hamath, —and pronounced upon him sentences of judgment.
Ahivangin, Babylon sepaiten amaho chu anung del un, Jericho phaicham a aphauvin, lengpa chu amantauve. Amahon Zedekiah lengpa chu, Hamath gam’a Riblah mun’a um Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar kom’a apuiluttauve. Hichun Nebuchadnezzar lengpan Zedekiah chunga thu atantai.
6 And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah, in Riblah before his eyes, —and all the nobles of Judah, did the king of Babylon slay;
Zedekiah lengpa chu, Babylon sepaiten, Judah gamvaipo holeh leng chapate jouse, asatlih’u chu, amittah in avetsah uvin ahi.
7 and the eyes of Zedekiah, did he put out, and bound him with fetters of bronze to bring him into Babylon.
Chuin, Zedekiah lengpa chu amit teni akaldoh peh un, thihkhaovin ahen un, Babylon gamlanga akaitauvin ahi.
8 And the house of the king, and the houses of the people, did the Chaldeans burn with fire, and the walls of Jerusalem, brake they down;
Hichun Babylon miten, lengpa inpi jouse jaonan Jerusalem khopi chu neiyin ahallha tauve. Chule khopi kulpi bang jouse jong chu asuchim soh tauve.
9 and the remnant of the people who were left in the city, and the disheartened who fell away unto him, and the remnant of the people who were left, did Nebuzaradan chief of the royal executioners, take captive to Babylon.
Chujouvin, in-ngah lamkaipa Nebuzaradan leh midang aumden ho chule ama henga hung kipelut chengse chu, Babylon gam’a sohchang dingin akaitauvin ahi.
10 But of the poor people, who had, nothing, did Nebuzaradan chief of the royal executioners, leave remaining in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and ploughed fields on the same day.
Ahin Nebuzaradan chun, Judah gamsunga mivaicha dehset ho chu, lengpilei honleh loumun tampi apen, phatea avettup diuvin angansetan ahi.
11 Then Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon gave command, concerning Jeremiah, —through Nebuzaradan chief of the royal executioners saying:
Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar in, in-ngahpa Nebuzaradan chu Jeremiah holdoh dingin, thupeh aneitan ahi.
12 Take him and, thine eyes, set thou upon him, and do not unto him any harmful thing, —but just as he shall speak unto thee, so, shalt thou do with him.
Aman Nebuzaradan jah’a, “Amapa hi phaten vetup inlang, koima bolset sah hih in. Aman angaichat chan penlang, aman asei bang bangin jen in,” ati.
13 So Nebuzaradan chief of the royal executioners, sent, also Nebushazban, chief of the eunuchs, and Nergal-sharezer chief of the magi, and all the chiefs of the king of Babylon;
Hijeh chun in-ngahpa Nebuzaradan, vaihom pipu Nebushazban, lengpa thumop Nergar-sharezer chule Babylon lengpa noiya lengvaipoho chun,
14 yea they sent and fetched Jeremiah out of the guard-court, and delivered him unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan, to bring him forth into a home, so he dwelt in the midst of the people.
Mi asol uvin, singkul a kon’in Jeremiah agapuidoh sah uvin, avetup dingin Shaphan tupa, Ahikam chapa, Gedaliah chu anganse tauve. Hichun Gedaliah in Jeremiah chu ainlam’a alepuiyin, hitichun, ama amite lalh’a acheng dentai.
15 Now unto Jeremiah, had come the word of Yahweh, while he was yet shut up in the guard-court, saying:
Jeremiah chu songkul'a akihen nalaiyin, Pakaiyin akom’a thu ahinseiye.
16 Go and speak to Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying, —Thus saith Yahweh of hosts God of Israel, Behold me! bringing about my words against this city, for, calamity—and not for blessing, —and they shall come to pass before thee, in that day.
“Chenlang Ethiopia mi Ebed-melech chu seipeh in. Thaneipen Pakai, Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye; Keiman hiche khopi douna kanaseisa banga kahin bolding ahi. Keiman hamsetna achunguva kalhunsah ding, hichu apha hilou ding, nangman namittah a amaho manthah chu namu ding ahi.
17 But I will deliver thee in that day, Declareth Yahweh, —and thou shalt not be given up into the hand of the men from the face of whom, thou, mightest shrink with fear.
Amavang hiche nikho chuleh keiman nangma chutobang kichat tijat na-a kon’a kahuh dohding nahi.
18 For I will, surely, deliver, thee, and by the sword, shalt thou not fall, —but thou shalt have thine own life as a spoil, Because thou hast trusted in me, Declareth Yahweh.
Ajeh chu keiman nangma neitahsan jal’a, keiman nangma hinkho chu kahuh doh ding nahi. Keiman nangma kahuhdoh’a bitkeiya kaumsah ding nahi,” tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
