< Jeremiah 23 >

1 Woe to! [the] shepherds [who] are causing to stray and [who are] scattering [the] flock of pasture my [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Anunae ka rhamtlim kah boiva a dawn vaengah aka milh sak tih aka taekyak aih te, he tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
2 Therefore thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel on the shepherds who are shepherding people my you you have scattered flock my and you have driven away them and not you have paid attention to them here I [am] about to visit on you [the] wickedness of deeds your [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Te dongah Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Ka pilnam aka dawn tih aka luem puei nang loh ka boiva te na taekyak. Amih te na heh tih amih te na hip moenih. Na khoboe thaenah te namah soah kan cawh he khaw BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni.
3 And I I will gather together [the] remnant of flock my from all the lands where I have banished them there and I will bring back them to pasture their and they will be fruitful and they will increase.
Te dongah diklai pum lamkah ka boiva kah a meet te ka coi ni. Amih te te la ka heh hnap mai cakhaw a tolkhoeng la ka mael puei ni. Te vaengah pungtai uh vetih ping uh ni.
4 And I will raise up over them shepherds and they will shepherd them and not they will be afraid again and not they will be terrified and not they will be missing [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Amih aka dawn te ka thoh thil vetih amih te luem uh ni. Te vaengah rhih uh voel pawt vetih, rhihyawp uh pawt vetih hal uh mahpawh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
5 Here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will raise up for David a branch righteous and he will reign a king and he will act prudently and he will do justice and righteousness in the land.
BOEIPA kah olphong khohnin ha pawk coeng ke. Te vaengah thingdawn dueng te David ham ka thoh pah tih manghai la manghai pawn ni. Te dongah tiktamnah neh duengnah te diklai ah a saii vetih a cangbam ni.
6 In days his it will be saved Judah and Israel it will dwell to security and this [will be] name his which anyone will call him Yahweh - [is] righteousness our.
Anih tue vaengah Judah te daem vetih Israel ngaikhuek la kho a sak ni. A ming te khaw BOEIPA tah mamih kah duengnah la a khue ni.
7 Therefore here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and not people will say again [by] [the] life of Yahweh who he brought up [the] people of Israel from [the] land of Egypt.
Te dongah BOEIPA kah olphong hnin tah ha pawk coeng ke. Te vaengah Egypt kho lamloh Israel ca aka khuen hingnah BOEIPA te koep thui uh mahpawh.
8 That except [by] [the] life of Yahweh who he brought up and who he brought [the] offspring of [the] house of Israel from a land north-ward and from all the lands where I banished them there and they will dwell on own land their.
Tedae hingnah BOEIPA amah lat loh Israel imkhui kah tiingan te tlangpuei kho lamkah neh diklai pum lamloh hang khuen tih ham pawk puei. Te ah te amih heh mai cakhaw amamih khohmuen ah kho a sak uh ni.
9 Of the prophets it is broken heart my in inner being my they have become weak all bones my I have become like a person drunken and like a man [whom] it has passed over him wine because of Yahweh and because of [the] words of holiness his.
Tonghma kawng dongah ka kotak khuikah ka lungbuei paeng coeng. Ka rhuh he boeih hinghlawk tih yurhui hlang bangla ka om. BOEIPA kah mikhmuh neh amah kah ol cim hmai ah misurtui loh a puem hlang bangla tui ka yuka.
10 For adulterers it is full the land for because of a curse it has dried up the land they have become dry [the] pastures of [the] wilderness and it has become course [of life] their evil and strength their [is] not right.
Diklai he samphaih neh hah coeng tih thaephoeinah hmai ah ni diklai he a nguekcoi uh. Khosoek toitlim ngawnkoh uh coeng tih a yongnah khaw yoethae la a poeh pah dongah a thayung thamal om tangloeng pawh.
11 For both prophet as well as priest they are polluted also in house my I have found wickedness their [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Tonghma neh khosoih khaw poeih uh coeng tih ka im khuiah pataeng amih kah boethae ka hmuh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
12 Therefore it will become path their for them like slippery places in the darkness they will be pushed down and they will fall on it for I will bring on them calamity [the] year of punishment their [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Te dongah amih taengah a longpuei te longhnal la poeh ni. Khohmuep khuila bung uh vetih a khuiah cungku uh ni. Amih cawhnah kum kah boethae te amih soah ka thoeng sak ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
13 And among [the] prophets of Samaria I saw offensiveness they prophesied by Baal and they caused to err people my Israel.
Samaria tonghma rhoek taengah khaw a hohap ni ka hmuh. Baal rhangneh tonghma uh tih ka pilnam Israel te khohmang la a khuehuh.
14 And among [the] prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a horrible [thing] they have committed adultery and they have walked in falsehood and they have strengthened [the] hands of evil-doers to not they have turned away anyone from evil his they have become to me all of them like Sodom and inhabitants its like Gomorrah.
Jerusalem tonghma rhoek taengah khaw a samphaih rhih om te ka hmuh. A honghi neh pongpa uh tih thaehuet ham kut a hluem uh. Hlang he a boethae lamloh a mael uh pawt dongah kai taengah tah amamih te Sodom bangla, a khuikah khosa rhoek khaw Gomorrah bangla boeih om uh coeng.
15 Therefore thus he says Yahweh of hosts on the prophets here I [am] about to make eat them wormwood and I will make drink them water of poison for from with [the] prophets of Jerusalem it has gone out wicked behavior to all the land.
Te dongah caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Amih tonghma rhoek te pantong ni ka cah coeng he. Jerusalem tonghma taeng lamloh diklai pum ah a rhonging a coe dongah amih te anrhat tui ni ka tul eh.
16 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts may not you listen to [the] words of the prophets who are prophesying to you [are] deluding they you [the] vision of own heart their they speak not from [the] mouth of Yahweh.
Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Nangmih taengah aka tonghma, tonghma rhoek ol te hnatun uh boeh. Amih te amamih lungbuei kah mangthui neh nangmih taengah hoemdawk uh tih BOEIPA kah ka lamloh aka thoeng te a thui uh moenih.
17 [they are] saying Continually to [those who] despise me he says Yahweh peace it will belong to you and every [one who] walks in [the] stubbornness of own heart his they have said not it will come on you calamity.
Kai yahbai ham aka thui la aka thui nangmih taengah BOEIPA ngaimongnah om saeh a ti lahko. Te dongah nim a lungbuei kah thinthahnah dongah aka pongpa boeih loh, 'Nangmih taengah yoethae ha pawk mahpawh,” a ti uh.
18 For who? has he stood in [the] council of Yahweh so he may see and he may hear word his who? has he paid attention to (word his *Q(K)*) and has he listened?
Tedae BOEIPA kah baecenol dongah pai tih aka hmu coeng neh a ol aka ya te unim? A ol te a ol bangla aka hnatung tih aka ya te unim?
19 There! - [the] storm of Yahweh rage it has gone out and a storm whirling on [the] head of wicked [people] it will whirl about.
BOEIPA kah kosi hlipuei ha thoeng pawn ni ke. Te vaengah hlipuei te kilkul vetih halang kah a lu te a kilkul thil ni.
20 Not it will turn back [the] anger of Yahweh until has brought about he and until has carried out he [the] purposes of heart his at [the] end of the days you will understand it understanding.
Anih loh a saii tih a lungbuei kah thuepnah a thoh duela BOEIPA kah thintoek tah mael mahpawh. Te te hmailong tue vaengah yakmingnah neh na yakming uh bitni.
21 Not I sent the prophets and they they ran not I spoke to them and they they prophesied.
Tonghma rhoek te ka tueih pawt dae amamih yong uh. Amih te ka uen pawt dae amamih tonghma uh.
22 And if they had stood in council my so they may cause to hear words my people my and they will turn back them from way their wicked and from [the] wickedness of deeds their.
Tedae kai kah baecenol dongah pai uh tih ka pilnam te kai ol yaak sak uh koinih a longpuei thae neh a khoboe thaenah lamloh amih mael uh ni.
23 ¿ A God from near [am] I [the] utterance of Yahweh and not a God from a distance.
He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Kai neh a yoei kah Pathen la om tih a hla ah tah a Pathen moenih a?
24 Or? will he hide himself anyone in hiding places and I not I will see him [the] utterance of Yahweh ¿ not the heavens and the earth [am] I filling [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Hlang he a huephael ah thuh uh cakhaw kai loh anih te ka hmuh moenih a? He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Vaan neh diklai he ka tluek moenih a? He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
25 I have heard [that] which they have said the prophets who prophesy in name my falsehood saying I have dreamed I have dreamed.
Tonghma rhoek loh kai ming neh ka tonghma a ti uh tih a laithae neh mang ka man rhoe ka man coeng a ti uh te ka yaak.
26 Until when? ¿ [is] there in [the] heart of the prophets [who] prophesy falsehood and [the] prophets of [the] deceitfulness of own heart their.
Me hil nim laithae la aka tonghma tonghma rhoek neh a lungbuei aka huep tonghma rhoek kah lungbuei khuiah a koe aih ve.
27 Who plan to make forget people my name my by dreams their which they recount each to neighbor his just as they forgot ancestors their name my for Baal.
A mang dongah ni ka pilnam loh ka ming he hnilh ham a moeh uh. A napa rhoek loh Baal kongah kai ming a hnilh uh vanbangla hlang loh a hui taengah ana thui te.
28 The prophet whom [is] with him a dream let him recount [the] dream and whom word my [is] with him let him speak word my faithfulness what? [belongs] to the straw with the grain [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Amah taengah mueimang aka om tonghma te tah a mueimang khaw thui saeh. Tedae a taengah kai ol aka dang long tah ka ol oltak he thui saeh. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni, cangpai neh cangkong te metlam a vai uh eh?
29 ¿ Not thus [is] word my like fire [the] utterance of Yahweh and like a hammer [which] it shatters rock.
He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. Ka ol he hmai bangla, thaelpang aka taekyak kilung bangla a om moenih a?
30 Therefore here I [am] on the prophets [the] utterance of Yahweh [who] steal words my each from with neighbor his.
Te dongah a hui taeng lamloh ka ol aka huen hlang neh tonghma rhoek te ka pai thil coeng ne. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni.
31 Here I [am] on the prophets [the] utterance of Yahweh who take tongue their and they have uttered an utterance.
He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Olphong te a phong lalah amih kah ol loh kongahtonghma rhoek te ka pai thil coeng ne.
32 Here I [am] on [those who] prophesy dreams of falsehood [the] utterance of Yahweh and they have recounted them and they caused to err people my by falsehoods their and by recklessness their and I not I sent them and not I appointed them and certainly not they benefit the people this [the] utterance of Yahweh.
He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni. A honghi kah mang neh aka tonghma rhoek khaw ka pai thil coeng ne. A thui uh vaengah ka pilnam he a honghi neh, a hohap neh khohmang la a khuehuh. Tedae amih te ka tueih pawt tih amih ka uen van pawt dongah a hoeikhang ham akhaw pilnam ham a hoeikhang moenih. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni.
33 And if it will ask you the people this or the prophet or a priest saying what? [is] [the] burden of Yahweh and you will say to them what? burden and I will abandon you [the] utterance of Yahweh.
He pilnam long khaw, tonghma long khaw, khosoih long khaw nang n'dawt atah BOEIPA kah olrhuh te thui pah. Te vaengah amih taengah nangmih kam phap ham olrhuh te amih taengah thui pah. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong coeng ni.
34 And the prophet and the priest and the people who he will say [the] burden of Yahweh and I will visit [judgment] on the person that and on house his.
Te dongah tonghma khaw, khosoih khaw, pilnam khaw BOEIPA kah olrhuh aka phoei tah tekah hlang te khaw a im te ka cawh pah ni.
35 Thus you will say each to neighbor his and each to brother his what? did he answer Yahweh and what? did he say Yahweh.
BOEIPA loh metla a doo tih BOEIPA loh metla a voek khaw hlang neh a hui taengah khaw hlang neh a manuca taengah khaw thui pah tangloeng.
36 And [the] burden of Yahweh not you will remember again for the burden it is for a person own word his and you change [the] words of God living Yahweh of hosts God our.
A ol he hlang taengah olrhuh la om dae BOEIPA kah olrhuh te koep na poek uh moenih. Te dongah ni caempuei BOEIPA mamih kah Pathen, hingnah Pathen kah ol he na maelh uh.
37 Thus you will say to the prophet what? did he answer you Yahweh and what? did he say Yahweh.
BOEIPA loh nang metla n'doo tih BOEIPA loh metla m'voek khaw tonghma taengah thui pah van.
38 And if [the] burden of Yahweh you will say therefore thus he says Yahweh because have spoken you the word this [the] burden of Yahweh and I sent to you saying not you must say [the] burden of Yahweh.
BOEIPA kah olrhuh na ti van atah BOEIPA loh a thui he thui van tangloeng. He ol he BOEIPA kah olrhuh la na thui. Tedae Thui hamla nang te kan tueih vaengah BOEIPA kah olrhuh ni na ti hae moenih.
39 Therefore here [am] I and I will surely you lift up and I will abandon you and the city which I gave to you and to ancestors your from on face my.
Te dongah kai loh nangmih te kan hnilh rhoe kan hnilh pawn ni he. Nangmih taeng neh na pa rhoek taengah kam paek khopuei neh ka mikhmuh khui lamloh nangmih te kam phap ni.
40 And I will put on you a reproach of perpetuity and shame of perpetuity which not it will be forgotten.
Kumhal kah kokhahnah neh kumhal kah yahpohnah te nangmih soah kang khueh vetih hnilh tlaih mahpawh.
