Jeremiah 8
1 At that time, Declareth Yahweh, Shall they bring forth, The bones of the kings of Judah, and The bones of his princes, and The bones of the priests, and The bones of the prophets, and The bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Out of their graves,
Hatnae tueng nah BAWIPA ni telah a dei, Judah siangpahrang hrunaw, vaihma hrunaw, profet hrunaw, Jerusalem tanminaw e hrunaw hah amamae phuen koehoi a thaw awh han.
2 And shall spread them out—To the sun, and To the moon, and To all the host of the heavens, Whom they have loved, And whom they have served, And after whom they have walked, And whom they have sought, And to whom they have bowed themselves down, —They shall not be gathered, Neither shall they be buried, As heaps of dung on the face of the ground, shall they be.
Ahnimanaw ni lungpataw teh thaw tawk pouh awh, a hnukkâbang pouh awh, a pacei awh teh a bawk awh e kanî hoi thapa hoi kalvan e âsinaw pueng hmalah a dan awh han.
3 Then shall, death, be chosen rather than life, by all the remnant of them that remain, of this wicked family, —in all the places, whither I have driven them, Declareth Yahweh of hosts.
Kai ni ka pâlei e hmuen pueng koevah, hete tamikathout miphunnaw ni hringnae hlak duenae arawihnawn awh telah ransahu BAWIPA ni ati.
4 Therefore shalt thou say unto them—Thus, saith Yahweh, Will men fall and not arise? Will one turn away, and not come back?
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei tie hah ahnimouh koe dei pouh, taminaw tâlaw awh navah bout thaw awh hoeh maw, lam a payon awh navah bout ban awh mahoeh maw.
5 Wherefore hath this people of Jerusalem apostatized with an enduring apostacy, —Taken fast hold of deceit, Refused to come back?
Telah pawiteh, bangkongmaw hete taminaw ni hnuklah a kamlang awh, Bangkongmaw Jerusalem kho taminaw ni hnuklah meng a kamlang awh. Dumnae dawk a lungpen awh teh ban han ngai awh hoeh.
6 I hearkened and heard—Not aright, did they speak, —Not a man, repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done! They have every one, turned to their course again, Like a horse sweeping on through the battle.
A lawk khei ka thai nah, ahnimouh ni lawkkatang hah dei awh hoeh. A thoenae koehoi buet touh ni hai pankângai e awm hoeh. Kai bangmaw ka sak, ati awh. Tarantuk koe marang ka yawng e patetlah tami pueng ni lam a phen awh teh, amamae lamthung dawk koung a yawng awh toe.
7 Even the stork in the heavens knoweth her appointed times, And the turtle and the swallow and the crane, observe the season for coming; But my people know not the just sentence of Yahweh.
Lathueng kamleng tavanaw ni patenghai a tue hah a panue awh teh, batuiling, bakhunaw, pingpitnaw, hoi tuicawmpainaw ni hai tho nahane a tue teh a panue awh. Hatei, ka taminaw ni teh BAWIPA e a kawnae hah panuek awh hoeh.
8 How can ye say, Wise, are, we, And the law of Yahweh, is with us? But indeed lo! falsely, hath dealt the false pen of the scribes!
Bangtelamaw, kaimouh teh ka lungang awh, BAWIPA e kâlawk kaimouh koe ao na ti thai awh vaw. cakathutkungnaw e cacung ni laithoe a tawm sak awh toe hei.
9 Ashamed are the wise, dismayed and captured! Lo! the word of Yahweh, have they rejected, And, what wisdom, have, they?
A lungkaangnaw yeirai a phu awh han. Puen awh vaiteh, man lah ao han. BAWIPA e lawk a pahnawt awh toe, bangpatet lungangnae maw a tawn awh.
10 Therefore, will I give—Their wives to others, Their fields to such as shall take possession of them, For from the least, even unto the greatest, Every one, is, wholly given to extortion: From the prophet even unto the priest, Every one, dealeth, falsely.
Hatdawkvah, a yunaw hah tami alouknaw koe ka poe han. A lawnaw hai ayânaw koe ka poe han. Kathoengca koehoi kalenpoung totouh kahounlounnaw lah ao awh. Profetnaw hoi vaihmanaw hai laithoe koung a dei awh.
11 And so they have healed the grievous wound of the daughter of my people, slightly, —Saying, Peace! peace! when there was no peace!
Ka taminaw, ka canunaw e hmâ hah phouhoucalah a khet awh. Lungmawngnae kaawm hoeh e hah, lungmawngnae lungmawngnae atipouh awh.
12 Were they led to turn pale because an abominable thing, they had done? Nay! they did not, at all turn pale Nay! they did not so much as know how to exhibit shame! Therefore, shall they fall among them who are falling, In the time when they are punished, shall they be overthrown, Saith Yahweh:
Panuet ka tho e nuencangnaw dawk a kaya awh maw, kayak awh hoeh. Kayanae roeroe tawn awh hoeh. A minhmai patenghai paling awh hoeh. Hatdawkvah, ka rawm e taminaw koe a rawp awh van vaiteh, rek lah ao awh nah a rahim lah a bo awh van han telah BAWIPA ni ati.
13 I will, surely remove, them, declareth Yahweh: There shall be no grapes on the vine Nor figs on the fig-tree, Even the leaf, hath faded, Though I have given them these things, they shall pass away from them.
A paw a khi awh e naw pueng ka la pouh han. BAWIPA ni ati. Misurkung dawkvah, misur paw awm mahoeh. Thaibunglung kung dawk a paw awm mahoeh, a hnanaw koung kamyai han. Kai ni ahnimanaw koe ka poe e hah bout ka la pouh han.
14 Why are, we, sitting still? Gather yourselves together and let us enter the defenced cities And let us be silent there, —For, Yahweh our God, hath put us to silence And made us drink poisoned water, Because we have sinned against Yahweh.
Bangkongmaw sut na tahung awh. Cungtalah kâracut awh vaiteh, rapan ka tawn e khopui dawk kâen awh sei. Haw vah cungtalah dout awh sei. Bangdawk tetpawiteh, maimouh ni BAWIPA koe yon awh toung dawkvah, BAWIPA maimae Cathut ni duenae sue na pânei awh teh, kahmakatanae koe na ta awh toe.
15 A waiting For prosperity, but no welfare, —For a time of healing, but lo! terror.
Lungmawngnae ngaihawi awh ei, ahawinae tho hoeh toe, tak damnae ngaihawi awh ei, runae seng doeh kaawm toe.
16 From Dan, was heard the snorting of his horses At the sound of the neighing of his chargers, the whole land trembled, —Yea they came in and did sat up The land and the fulness thereof, The city, and them who were dwelling therein.
Tarannaw e marangnaw kâha lawk teh, Dan hoi a thai awh toe. Marangtannaw e a cai lawk ni ram thung pueng pâyaw sak awh toe. Ram hoi a thung e kaawm hnopueng hoi khopui hoi khopui thung kaawm taminaw pueng pâyaw hanlah a tho awh toe.
17 For behold me! sending among you serpents—vipers which there is no charming, —And they shall fatally bite you declareth Yahweh.
Khenhaw! nangmouh koe, hrunthok, hrunthoe ka tha vaiteh, bangtelah hai ti thai lah kaawm hoeh e ni nangmouh teh koung na khue awh han, telah BAWIPA ni ati.
18 When I would have cheered myself against sorrow, Against me, mine own heart sickened: —
Oe ka lungmathoenae heh api nang ne karoum sak han. Ka thung vah ka lung sut a pout.
19 Lo! the voice of the cry for help of the daughter of my people from a land far away, Is, Yahweh, not in Zion? Is, her King, not within her? Why, have they provoked me with their carved images, with their foreign vanities?
Ram hlanae koe kaawm ka canu ka taminaw e a khuika lawk hah thai haw. Zion vah BAWIPA awm hoeh maw. Siangpahrang hai haw vah awm hoeh toung maw. Bangkong hetnaw ni sakhlawn e meikaphawknaw hoi miphunnaw e meikaphawknaw ni bangkongmaw ka lungkhuek sak awh.
20 The harvest is passed, The fruit-gathering, is ended; And we are not saved!
Canga tue a loum toe, kompawi tue a khup toe, maimouh teh rungngang lah awm awh hoeh rah.
21 For the grievous injury of the daughter of my people, I am grievously injured, —I am enshrouded in gloom, Horror, hath seized me: —
Ka taminaw hoi ka canaw, patawnae hah ka hmawngkhai. Ka lungmathoe teh kângairunae ni khik na katek.
22 Balsam, is there none, in Gilead? Is there no physician, there? Why hath not appeared the healing of the daughter of my people?
Gilead vah hluk hane thingtapi awm hoeh maw. Haw vah tâsibawi awm hoeh maw. Bangkong ka taminaw ka canaw e a hmâ ahawi thai hoeh.
