< Jeremiah 44 >

1 The word which came to Jeremiah, against all the Jews who were dwelling in the land of Egypt, —who were dwelling in Migdol and in Tahpanhes, and in Noph, and in the land of Pathros saying:
Izip ram dawk kaawm e Judah taminaw pueng, Migdil, Tahpanhes, Noph kho hoi Pathros ram khosaknaw kong dawk Jeremiah koe ka tho e lawk.
2 Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, Ye yourselves, saw all the calamity which I brought in upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Judah, —and there they are, a desolation this day, and there is not in them an inhabitant:
Ransahu BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni hettelah a dei, Jerusalem hoi Judah khopuinaw pueng e lathueng rawkkahmanae ka tho sak e naw pueng hah na hmu awh toe. Hatdawkvah, khenhaw! sahnin vah a kâraphoe teh apihai khosak awh hoeh toe.
3 because of their wickedness which they committed, provoking me to anger, by going to burn incense, to serve other gods, whom they had not known, they, ye nor your fathers;
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh ni thoseh, nangmouh ni thoseh, na mintoenaw ni thoseh a panue awh boihoeh e cathut alouke bawk hane hoi ahnimouh koe hmuitui thueng hanlah a cei awh teh, kaie lungkhuek sak nahanlah thoenae lam a dawn awh.
4 yet I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, betimes sending them, saying, Do not, I pray you, commit this abominable thing, which I hate!
Hottelah nakunghai ka san profetnaw amom a thaw awh teh, ka patoun teh ahnimouh koevah, oe! hete panuettho e hno, ka hmuhma e heh sak awh hanh leih telah ka ti.
5 but they hearkened not neither inclined their ear, by turning from their wickedness, —so as not to burn incense to other gods.
Hatei cathut alouknaw koe hmuitui thueng hoeh hane hoi hawihoehnae kamlang takhai hanelah thai ngai awh hoeh.
6 Therefore were mine indignation and mine anger poured out, and a fire was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, —and they became waste and desolate, as at this day.
Hatdawkvah, ka lungkhueknae hoi ka lungkâannae teh Judah khopuinaw hoi Jerusalem lamnaw dawk ka rabawk teh, a kamtawi. Sahnin vah a coungnae patetlah a kâraphoe teh kingdi toe.
7 Now, therefore, Thus, saith Yahweh God of hosts God of Israel—Wherefore, are ye committing a great wickedness against your own lives, that ye should cut off from you man and woman child and suckling, out of the midst of Judah, —so that there should not be left you a remnant:
Hatdawkvah, Isarel Cathut ransahu Cathut BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, bangkongmaw namamouh thung hoi napui tongpa, camo sanu ka net e hoi Judah taminaw thung hoi apihai pâhlung laipalah be pâmit hanelah hete kahawihoehe hno heh, namamouh taranlahoi letlang na sak awh teh,
8 in that ye provoke me to anger by the works of your own hands, burning incense to other gods, in the land of Egypt, which ye have been entering to sojourn, —that ye should cut them off from you, and that ye should become a contempt and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?
khosak hanlah na ceinae Izip ram dawk e cathutnaw koe hmuitui na thueng awh teh, talai van e miphunnaw rahak vah, mahoima kâraphoe hane hoi, thoebo e tami hoi, pathoe e tami lah o hanelah na meikaphawknaw roeroe ni ka lungkhuek sak.
9 Have ye forgotten the wicked ways of your fathers and the wicked ways of the kings of Judah, and the wicked ways of his wives, and your own wicked ways, and the wicked ways of your own wives, —which they committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Na kakhekungnaw hawihoehnae hoi Judah siangpahrangnaw hawihoehnae, tamimaya hawihoehnae, namamouh hawihoehnae hoi, na yunaw hawihoehnae Judah ram hoi Jerusalem lamthung dawk a sak awh e naw hah na pahnim awh toung maw.
10 They have not been crushed, unto this day; neither have they been afraid, neither have they walked in my law, and in my statutes, which I set before you and before your fathers,
Sahnin totouh pankângai kalawn awh hoeh. Na kakhekung hoi nangmae hmalah ka kamnue sak e ka kâlawk hoi ka phunglam hah na tarawi awh hoeh teh na taket awh hoeh.
11 Therefore, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts God of Israel, Behold me! setting my face against you for calamity, —even to cut off all Judah;
Hatdawkvah, ransahu BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni hettelah a dei, Khen awh haw nangmouh rawk nahane hoi Judah taminaw pueng raphoe hanelah na taran awh han.
12 and I will take the remnant of Judah who did set their faces to enter the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they shall all be consumed, in the land of Egypt, shall they fall by the sword, by famine, shall they be consumed, from the least even unto the greatest, by sword and by famine, shall they die, —so shall they become a curse, and an astonishment, and a contempt and a reproach;
Hahoi kacawirae Judah Izip ram vah khosak hanlah kabawmnaw hah ka man vaiteh, be ka pâmit han. Izip ram lah ban awh vaiteh, tahloi, takang hoi be raphoe e lah ao han. Kathoengca koehoi kalenpoung totouh tahloi, takang hoi a due awh han. Thoebo e hoi tami ni kângairu e hoi lawkthoeumkha bap e, hnephnap e lah ao awh han.
13 and I will bring punishment upon them who are dwelling in the land of Egypt, just as I brought punishment upon Jerusalem, —by sword, by famine and by pestilence;
Jerusalem ka rek e patetlah Izip ram dawk kho ka sak e naw hah, tahloi, takang, lacik hoi ka rek han.
14 and there shall be neither escape nor survival, unto the remnant of Judah who have been entering, to sojourn there into the land of Egypt, —that they should return to the land of Judah even when they are lifting up their soul to return to dwell there, for none shall return, saving fugitives.
Hahoi Izip ram khosak hanlah kacetnaw thung hoi kacawirae Judah taminaw hah Judah ram ao awh nahane ban han a ngai poung awh e ram dawk a ban hanelah buet touh boehai ka dam lahoi tâcawt mahoeh. Arulahoi ka yawng e hoeh laipalah teh apihai ban mahoeh.
15 Then all the men who knew that their wives were burning incense to other gods, and all the women standing by, a great convocation, —with all the people who were dwelling in the land of Egypt in Pathros, made answer unto Jeremiah, saying:
Hattoteh taminaw pueng a yunaw ni cathut alouke koevah hmuitui a sawi awh telah ka panuek e naw hoi ka kangdout e napui moikapap naw, Izip ram dawk kho ka sak e tamimaya ni Pathros vah Jeremiah hah hettelah a pathung awh.
16 As touching the word which thou hast spoken unto us, in the name of Yahweh we are not going to hearken unto thee;
BAWIPA min lahoi kaimouh koe na dei awh e hah ka ngai awh mahoeh.
17 but, we will certainly do, the whole thing that hath gone forth out of our own mouth, by burning incense to the queen of the heavens, and pouring out to her drink-offerings, just as we and our fathers, and our kings and our princes, did, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, then were we filled with bread and became prosperous, and calamity, saw we none;
Hatei kamamouh hoi kakhekungnaw, ka siangpahrangnaw hoi kahrawikungnaw ni Judah khopuinaw hoi Jerusalem lam dawk ouk a sak awh e patetlah kalvan siangpahrangnu koe hmuitui sawinae hoi ahni koe nei thuengnae awi nateh, kamamae pahni dawk hoi ka tâcawt e lawk patetlah ka sak awh roeroe han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hatnae tueng dawk hmaisawi teh, canei kawi apap teh rucatnae kâhmo awh boihoeh.
18 whereas, from the very time we ceased burning incense to the queen of the heavens and pouring out to her drink-offerings, we have lacked everything, —and by sword and by famine, have we been consumed.
Kalvan siangpahrangnu koe hmaisawi thuengnae hoi nei han rabawknae ka kâhat awh hnukkhu teh, bangpuengpa dawk ka vout awh teh, tahloi hoi takang hoi raphoe e lah ka o awh.
19 And, though we are burning incense to the queen of the heavens and pouring out to her drink-offerings, is it, without our men that we have made to her sacrificial cakes as images of her and poured out to her, drink-offerings?
Hahoi napuinaw ni kalvan siangpahrangnu koe hmuitui hmaisawinae hoi nei han rabawknae a sak awhnae koe vanaw hoi lungkuep hoeh lahoi maw ama bawknae dawk vaiyei a sak awh teh ahni koe nei han rabawknae sak awh telah ati awh.
20 Then spake Jeremiah unto all the people, —against the men and against the women, and against all the people who had been making any answer unto him, saying:
Hattoteh Jeremiah ni, taminaw pueng napui tongpa hoi ama kapathungnaw koe,
21 Was it not, the very incense which ye burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye and your fathers your kings and your princes and the people of the land, was it not those very things, that Yahweh did remember, and that came up on his heart;
Judah khopuinaw hoi Jerusalem lamthungnaw dawk namamouh hoi na kakhekung, na siangpahrangnaw, na kahrawikungnaw hoi ram thung e tamimaya ni hai hmuitui a sawi awh e hah, BAWIPA ni a pâkuem teh a lung dawk tat hoeh maw.
22 so that Yahweh could no longer forbear because of the wickedness of your doings, because of the abominations which ye committed, —and your land became a desolation, and an astonishment, and a contempt without inhabitant—as at this day?
Yonnae na sak awh e hoi panuettho e hno na sak awh e dawk, BAWIPA ni khang thai hoeh toe. Hatdawkvah, nangmae ram teh kingdinae, kângairunae, thoebonae, hoi karingkung kaawm hoeh e sahnin e patetlah doeh ao.
23 Because that ye burned incense, and that ye sinned against Yahweh and hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh, and, in his law and in his statutes and in his testimonies, did not walk, for this cause, did this calamity befall you—as at this day.
Hmuitui na sawi awh teh BAWIPA e lathueng yonnae na sak awh teh, BAWIPA lawk na thai ngai awh hoeh. A kâlawk thoseh, a phunglam thoseh, na panue sak e lawk thoseh, na tarawi awh hoeh dawkvah, hete hno kahawihoeh e, atu e patetlah nangmouh lathueng ka phat e doeh telah a ti.
24 And Jeremiah said unto all the people, and unto all the women, —Hear ye the word of Yahweh, all Judah, who are in the land of Egypt, —
Hothloilah, Jeremiah ni tamimaya hoi napuinaw koe, Izip ram e Judah taminaw pueng, BAWIPA e lawk heh thaihaw.
25 Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, saying, Ye and your wives, have both spoken with your mouth and with your hands, have ye fulfilled saying, We will, certainly perform, our vows which we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out to her drink-offerings: the women will certainly confirm, your vows, and, certainly perform, your vows.
Ransahu BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni hettelah a dei. Namamouh hoi na yunaw ni kalvan siangpahrangnu koevah, hmuitui sawi e hoi, nei rabawk hanelah, ka dei tangcoung e patetlah ka sak awh roeroe han telah na pahni ni a dei teh na kut ni hai a kuep sak. Na lawk kam hah caksak awh haw. Na kâcai e naw kuep sak roeroe awh.
26 Therefore, hear ye the word of Yahweh, all Judah, who are dwelling in the land of Egypt, —Behold me! I have sworn by my great Name, Saith Yahweh, That my Name shall no more be invoked by the mouth of any man of Judah saying—By the life of My Lord, Yahweh in all the land of Egypt.
Hatdawkvah, nangmouh Judah taminaw, Izip ram kho ka sak e taminaw pueng. BAWIPA e lawk thai awh. Thaihaw! Bawipa Jehovah a hring e patetlah Izip ram dawk kho ka sak e Judah tami apipatet nihai, ka min dei hanh lawi naseh telah kalenpounge ka mitnout lahoi thoe ka bo telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
27 Behold me! watching over them for calamity, and not for blessing, —so shall all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt, be consumed, by sword and by famine until there be an end of them.
Khenhaw! ahawi nahane laipalah, a rawk awh nahanelah, ahnimouh pou ka pawp. Judah tami Izip ram dawk kaawmnaw pueng teh, tahloi, takang hoi he raphoe hoehroukrak, be kahma sak e lah ao han.
28 Yet, the fugitives of the sword, shall certainly return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah men easily counted, —that all the remnant of Judah who are entering Egypt to sojourn there, may know, whose word, shall stand, mine or theirs!
Tahloi dawk hoi ka hlout e tami tangawn hah Izip ram hoi ban awh vaiteh, Judah ram dawk a kâen awh han. Kacawirae Judah taminaw pueng, Izip ram dawk khosak hanelah kacetnaw ni, apie lawk maw ka cak han, ka lawk maw, ahnimae lawk tie a panue awh han.
29 And, this, to you, shall be the sign, Declareth Yahweh, that I am about to bring punishment upon you in this place, —that ye may know that my words shall, certainly stand against you, for calamity:
Hahoi hetheh nangmouh hanlah minoutnae lah ao han. Ka lawk heh nangmouh hanlah hawihoehnae lah a kangdue roeroe telah na panue thai awh nahan, hete hmuen koe ka sak han telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
30 Thus, saith Yahweh, Behold me! delivering up Pharaoh-hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, yea into the hand of them who are seeking his life, —just as I delivered Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon his enemy, and one seeking his life.
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! Judah siangpahrang Zedekiah teh a hringnae ka thet hane a taran Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar kut dawk ka poe e patetlah Faro Hophra Izip siangpahrang teh ka thet hane a taran koevah ka poe han telah a ti.
