< Jeremiah 24 >
1 [The army of] King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon captured Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, and his officials, and all his skilled workers [DOU] and took them to Babylon. After that happened, Yahweh gave me a vision. [In the vision] I saw two baskets of figs that had been placed in front of the temple.
Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar in, Judahte lengpa Jehoiakim chapa Jehoiachin, Judah leng chapate ho, khutthem bolho leh thingthem bolho jouse, Babylon gam’a soh’a akaimang nung un, Pakaiyin hiche gao-thilmu hi, keima eimusah e. Hichu, Jerusalem houin maiya, theichangga pochani dimset akitung’e.
2 One basket was full of good figs, like the kind that ripen first. The other basket was filled with figs that were bad/rotten, with the result that they could not be eaten.
Pocha khat’a chun, theichangga apha leh amin hoisel adimset in, chuleh pocha khat’a chun, theichangga phalou leh nehthei lou amonsa dimset in aum e.
3 Then Yahweh said to me, “Jeremiah, what do you see?” I replied, “[I see some] figs. Some are very good ones, but some are very bad, with the result that no one would eat them.”
Chuin Pakaiyin kajah’a, “Jeremiah, ipi namum?’’ ati. Keiman kadonbut in,’’Theichangga pochani dim kamui. Aga pha hochu ahoilheh in; Aga phalou ho chu nehtheilou amon ngen ahiuve,’’ kati.
4 Then Yahweh gave me this message:
Chujouvin, Pakai thusei hichehi, kaheng ahung lhung e.
5 “This is what [I], Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli people [say that they worship], say: ‘The good figs represent [SIM] the people of Judah whom I exiled to Babylonia.
Pakai, Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye, “Judah gamsunga kon’a Babylon gam’a sohchanga kikaimang ho chu, theichangga apha leh ahoisel ho banga kagel ahi.
6 I [SYN] will (watch over/take care of) them well, and [some day] I will bring them back here [to Judah]. I will establish them and cause them to be strong. I will cause them to be prosperous [MET], and I will not exile them [again].
Keiman amaho kavetlhih jinga kachin jing ding, chuleh amaho chu hiche gamsunga kahin lepuilut kitding ahiuve.
7 I will enable them to desire to know [IDM] that I am Yahweh. They will be my people, and I will be their God, because they will return to me sincerely.’
Keiman amaho hi, keima Pakai kahi ti eihetjing nadiu lungchang kapeh diu ahiuve. Chuleh amaho kamite hiuva, keima a Pathen u kahiding; Chutahle amaho alungthim pumpiuva kaheng’a hung kile kitdiu ahiuve.
8 But [I], Yahweh, [also] say, ‘The bad figs represent [SIM] Zedekiah, the king of Judah, and his officials, and all the [other] people who remain in Jerusalem, and those who have gone to Egypt. I will do to them like people do to rotten figs.
Chuleh theichangga phalou chu, Judah lengpa Zedekiah leh achapate, Jerusalem’a umden ho leh Egypt gamsunga cheng den ho, kabolna ding vetsahna ahi. Keiman amaho chu theichangga phalou, nehtheilou amonsa banga kalah ahiuve.
9 I will [get rid of them], with the result that people in every nation on the earth will be horrified, and will hate them because they are evil people. Wherever I scatter them, people will make fun of them, and say that they are disgraced, and ridicule them, and curse them.
Amaho hi keiman namtin vaipi mudinga, thet umtah leh melse tah’a kabol ding; Chuleh amaho hi, keiman muntin’a kadel manga, kathethang ding ahiuve. Chutia chu miho seiset leh nuisat a umding ahiuve.
10 And I will cause them to experience wars and famines and diseases, until they have disappeared from this land which I gave to them and to their ancestors.’”
Keiman amaho leh apu apateu kana pehsa gamsunga kon amanthah kahseuva chemjam kalha den diu, kel lha ding chule thina hise jong kalha khum diu ahi,” ati.
