< Jeremiah 18 >

1 The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh saying.
BOEIPA taeng lamloh Jeremiah taengla ol ha pawk tih,
2 Arise and you will go down [the] house of the potter and there I will cause to hear you words my.
“Thoo lamtah amsai im la cet. Te vaengah ka ol he nang taengah pahoi kan yaak sak bitni,” a ti.
3 And I went down [the] house of the potter (and there! he *Q(K)*) [was] doing work on the stones.
Te dongah amsai im la pakcak ka suntlak vaengah amkhawn dongah bi tarha ana saii.
4 And it was spoiled the vessel which he [was] making with the clay in [the] hand of the potter and he would return and he made it a vessel another just as it was pleasing in [the] eyes of the potter to do.
Tedae amsai kut dongah amlai lamloh a saii am te vik rhek. Te dongah mael tih am tloe te a saii tih amsai mik dongah then a ti bangla a saii.
5 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA ol loh kai taengah ha pawk tih,
6 ¿ Like the potter this not am I able to do to you O house of Israel [the] utterance of Yahweh here! like the clay in [the] hand of the potter so you [are] in hand my O house of Israel.
Israel imkhui nangmih taengah he kah amsai bangla saii ham ka coeng moenih a? He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Amsai kut kah amlai bangla nangmih Israel imkhui khaw kamah kut ah om van he.
7 A moment I will speak on a nation and on a kingdom to pluck up and to pull down and to destroy.
Namtom neh ram he phuk ham khaw, palet ham neh milh sak ham khaw mikhaptok ah ka thui coeng.
8 And it will turn away the nation that from evil its which I had spoken on it and I will relent on the calamity which I had planned to do to it.
Namtom he a boethae lamloh a yut te ni amah taengah ka thui. Te daengah ni a soah boethae saii ham ka moeh te ko ka hlawt eh.
9 And a moment I will speak on a nation and on a kingdom to build up and to plant.
Namtom neh ram te thoh ham neh phung ham khaw mikhaptok ah ka thui coeng.
10 And it will do (the evil *Q(K)*) in view my to not to listen to voice my and I will relent on the good which I had said to do good to it.
Ka mikhmuh ah a thae a thae te a saii tih ka ol he hnatun pawh. A then ham a then la ka thui khaw ko ka hlawt ni.
11 And therefore say please to everyone of Judah and to [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem saying thus he says Yahweh here! I [am] about to fashion on you calamity and [am] about to plan on you a plan turn back please everyone from way his wicked and make good ways your and deeds your.
Te dongah Judah hlang taeng neh Jerusalem khosa taengah voek laeh lamtah he he thui laeh. BOEIPA loh, “Nangmih ham yoethae ka hmoel tih nangmih ham kopoek ka moeh coeng he. Hlang loh a longpuei thae lamloh mael laeh saeh. Na longpuei neh na khoboe te dueng uh laeh.
12 And they say despairing for after own plans our we will walk and everyone [the] stubbornness of heart his wicked we will act.
Tedae, ‘Talsae la, kaimih kopoek hnukah ka pongpa uh bitni,’ a ti uh vetih hlang loh a lungbuei kah thinthahnah neh, ‘A thae saii sih,’ a ti uh ni,'” a ti.
13 Therefore thus he says Yahweh ask please among the nations who? has he heard like these [things] a horrible [thing] she has done exceedingly [the] virgin of Israel.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Namtom taengah khaw dawt laeh. Israel oila loh rhih-om la mat a saii bang he unim aka ya?
14 ¿ Does it leave from [the] rock of [the] field [the] snow of Lebanon or? are they plucked up waters strange cool flowing.
Lebanon vuelsong hmuen kah lungpang lamloh a hawk tih kholong khosik kah aka long tui ke kak bal nim?
15 For they have forgotten me people my to falsehood they make smoke and they have caused to stumble them in ways their paths of antiquity to walk paths a way not built up.
Ka pilnam loh kai n'hnilh tih a poeyoek la a phum uh. Te dongah a longpuei ah amamih paloe uh. Khosuen lamkat ah pongpa ham a hawn longpuei te picai uh pawh.
16 To make land their into a waste (whistling of *Q(K)*) perpetuity every [one who] passes by at it he will be appalled and he may wag with head his.
A khohmuen te imsuep la a khueh uh tih kumhal due a rhungnah om. Te te aka pah boeih khaw pong vetih a lu te a thuk ni.
17 Like a wind of [the] east I will scatter them before an enemy back and not face I will show them on [the] day of disaster their.
Amih te a thunkha mikhmuh ah khothoeng yilh bangla a rhawn long ka taekyak ni. Amih kah rhainah khohnin ah amih te maelhmai ka tueng mahpawh.
18 And people said come so let us plan on Jeremiah plans for not it will be lost instruction from [the] priest and counsel from [the] wise and word from [the] prophet come and let us attack him with the tongue and may not we pay attention to all words his.
Te vaengah, “Cet uh sih lamtah Jeremiah te kopoek neh moeh uh sih. Khosoih neh hlangcueih kah cilsuep dongah khaw, tonghma lamkah ol dongah khaw olkhueng he paltham mahpawh. Anih te ol nen khaw ngawn uh sih lamtah a thui boeih te hnatung uh boel sih,” a ti uh.
19 Be attentive! O Yahweh to me and listen to [the] voice of opponents my.
BOEIPA aw kai taengkah he hnatung lamtah ka lungawn ol te ya lah.
20 ¿ Will it be repaid in place of good evil for they have dug a pit for self my remember - standing my before you to speak on them good to turn back rage your from them.
Ka hinglu ham vaam a vueh uh lalah a boethae te a then neh ka thuung venim? Na mikhmuh ah ka pai ham, amih yueng a then thui ham, na kosi te amih taeng lamloh a mael ham khaw poek lah.
21 Therefore give children their to famine and pour them over [the] hands of [the] sword so they may become wives their childless and widows and men their may they be [the] slain of death young men their [those] struck down of [the] sword in battle.
Te dongah a ca rhoek te khokha taengah pae tangloeng lamtah cunghang kut dongah khaw hawk laeh. A yuu rhoek te dueidah laemhong neh nuhmai la om uh saeh. A hlang rhoek te dueknah kah a ngawn la om uh saeh. Tongpang rhoek te caemtloek vaengah cunghang loh ngawn saeh.
22 May it be heard a cry of distress from houses their if you will bring on them a marauding band suddenly for they have dug (a pit *Q(K)*) to capture me and snares they have hidden for feet my.
Kai tuuk ham tah rhom te khaw vaam la a vueh uh tih ka kho ham khaw pael a tung uh dongah, amih ham caem buengrhuet na khuen pah vaengah a imkhui lamloh a pang uh ya saeh.
23 And you O Yahweh you know all plan their on me for death may not you atone on iniquity their and sin their from to before you may not you wipe out (and let them be *Q(K)*) overthrown before you in [the] time of anger your do with them.
Tedae dueknah ham kai soah amih kah cilsuep boeih te BOEIPA namah loh na ming. Amih kah thaesainah te dawth pah boel lamtah a tholhnah te na mikhmuh lamloh huih pah boeh. Na thintoek tue vaengah amih te saii lamtah na mikhmuh ah aka paloe la om rhoe om saeh.
