Jeremiah 27
1 Soon after Zedekiah became the King of Judah, Yahweh gave a message to me.
Judah lengpa Josiah chapa, Zedekiah lengchan kipattil in, Pakaiya kon in Jeremiah henga thu ahunglhunge.
2 This is what he said to me: “Make a (yoke/set of wooden bars to fasten around the neck of an ox), but fasten it around your own neck with leather straps.
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ‘Nangman namkol kisem inlang, apohna ding savun khao jong kisem inlang, anngong’a pon.
3 [Then] send messages to the kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, and Sidon, by telling those messages to the ambassadors from those countries who have come to Jerusalem to [talk to] King Zedekiah.
Chutengle, nangman Jerusalem a Zedekiah lengpa kimupi dinga hungji leng palai ho khut a, hiche Pakai thusei hohi, Edom lengpa, Moah lengpa, Ammon lengpa, Tyre leh Sidon lengte kom’a thot in.
4 Tell them to give this message to their kings: This is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom the Israeli [people worship, ]:
Hiche thuhi amaho chu penlang, amahon a lengte hou seipih uhen. Hatchungnung Pakaiyin hitin aseiye.
5 ‘With my very great power [MTY, DOU] I created the earth and the people and the animals that are on the earth. And I can give my power to anyone whom I want to.
Kathaneina jouse leh kaban thahat pan’a, keiman leiset leh asunga mihem jouse chuleh ganhing jouse abon’a kasem ahi. Hijeh’a chu keiman kicheng se hi, koi hijongle kanop nop kapeh jeng ahi.
6 And now I am going to enable King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, who does what I want him to do, to control your countries. I am going to enable him to rule everything, even the wild animals.
Tua hi, keiman hiche gam pumpi hi, kasohpa Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar khut a kapeh ding, chule gamlah’a gamsa ho jong, ama kin bol’a pang dinga kapeh ahitai.
7 [The people of] all the nations will work for him, and [later] for his son, and [later] for his grandson, until the time for them [to rule] is finished. Then [the armies of] many great kings from many nations will conquer Babylon.’
Hitia chu, namtin vaipin ama ajendiu, achapa jong chule atupa khang geiya jopng akin bol’a pang ding ahiuve. Chujoutengle namtin vaipi thahattah ho leh leng lentah hon, ama leh agamsung chu gal’a ajouva, achunguva vai ahomdiu ahi.
8 But now I tell you that you must [do what the king of Babylon wants you to do] [MET], [like an ox that has] a yoke on its neck [must do what its master wants it to do]. I will punish any nation that refuses to do that. I will cause those people to experience war and famine and diseases, until [the armies of] Babylon have conquered that nation.
Hijeh’a chu, nangho Babylon lengpa khut’a nakipehlut diu, ama kin bol’a napandiu ahi. Ijemtia koi nam ham khattouvin, Babylon lengpa soh’a panding da aumle, amaho chu talent kamatsah ding ahi. Keiman achung'uva gal kalhut khum ding, kel kalhah sah ding chule natna hise kalan sah ding ahi. Amaho chu Babylon lengpan asuhmang hel kahseuva, talen kamatsah ding ahiuve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
9 So, do not pay attention to your [false] prophets and fortune-tellers and people who predict what will happen by working magic or by talking with spirits of dead people. Those people say that the king of Babylon will not conquer your country.
Hijeh chun themgao lhemho thusei tahsan hih un, chuleh mang Lethem ho, phunsan thenho leh doi themho thusei ngaidauvin. Ajeh chu amahon, Babylon lengpan nachunguva ima boltheiponte pou, atiuve.
10 Those people are [all] liars. [If you believe what they say, ] it will result in your being exiled from your land. I will cause you to be taken from your land, and you will die far away.
Amaho chu apumpiuva joule nal’a thusei ngen ahiuvin, amaho thusei jal a nangho nagamsung uva kon’a delmang’a naumlo teidiu ahi. Hitia chu, keiman nangho gamla tah’a kadel mang diu, chuche mun’a chu nathi dendiu ahi.
11 But the people of any country who do what the King of Babylon wants them to do will remain in their own country and be able to plant their crops [MTY] [as they always have done. That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
Amavang, koi nam hijongle Babylon lengpan namkol noiya angong hindo jenga, kipelut ho vang chu, agamsung dalha louva umden diu, lou akiboluva, chengden diu ahiuve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
12 [After I gave that message to those ambassadors, ] I gave the same message to King Zedekiah of Judah. [I said to him, ] “If you want to remain alive, do what the King of Babylon and his officials want you to do [MET].
Chuin, keiman Judah lengpa Hezekiah henga chun, Pakai thusei hijat pihi, asei tobang bang in kaga sei kitin, hitin kati. “Nahin nadin, Babylon lengpa namkol noiya nangong do cheh uvin, chule ama leh amite kin bol in panguvin.
13 [It would be foolish for you not to do that, because the result would be that] you and your people would die by [your enemies’] swords or by famine or diseases, which Yahweh will cause any nation to experience that refuses to allow the King of Babylon to rule them.
Ibol’a nang nahin namite ahiuvin, Pakaiyin aphondohsa Babylon lengpa kinbol nomlou mite chunga chuding – chemjam gilkel, chule natna hise hoa chu thidinga kigo jeng nahiu hitam?
14 Do not pay attention to those prophets who say to you, ‘The King of Babylon will not conquer your country.’ They are liars.
Themgao lhemho thusei tahsan hih un. Amahon Babylon lengpa kin boldauvin, aman ima nalothei pouvinte, atiu chu ngaidauvin. Amaho chu joule nal’a gaothu sei ngan ahiuve.
15 [This is what] Yahweh says: ‘I have not appointed those prophets. They are saying that I [MTY] gave them messages, but they are lying. So, [if you believe them, ] I will expel you from this land. And you and all those prophets will die [in Babylon]!’”
Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Keiman hiche themgao ho hi kasol khapoi. Amahon kamin in jouthu jeng agaovun, hijeh’achu keiman hiche gamsunga kon’a hi, nangho nabonuva kadelmang ding nahiuve. Nangho jong chule na themgao hou jong, na bonchauva nathigam soh diu ahi.
16 Then I spoke to the priests and the other people, and I said, “This is what Yahweh says: ‘Do not believe your prophets who tell you that all the gold items [that were taken] from my temple [by soldiers from Babylon] will soon be returned from Babylon, because what they are prophesying is a lie.
Chuin keiman thempu ho leh mipiho heng’a chun, Pakai thusei chu kahil in, hitin kaseiye. Na themgao houvin, Pakai houin sunga kon’a kipodoh gou ho, hung kinung pohlut loidinga aseiyu chu, ngaidauvin. Amahon jouthu jeng aseiyu ahibouve.
17 Do not pay attention to what they say. Surrender to the king of Babylon. If you do that, you will remain alive. [If you do not do that] [RHQ], this entire city will be destroyed.
Athuseiyu khu ngaipih hih un. Babylon lengpa khutnoiya kipelut uvin, chutileh nahinjoh diu ahi. Ibol a hiche khopi hi kimoh suhset jeng ding ham?
18 If they are really prophets who speak messages from me, tell them to plead to me, the Commander of the armies of angels, that [the soldiers from Babylon] will not be allowed to take away to Babylon the valuable items that [still] remain in the temple and in the king’s palace and in [the other palaces in] Jerusalem.
Amaho chu themgao dihtah ahiuva, Pakaiya kon thupeh seiding nei ahiuleh, Hatchung nung Pakai henga taovu hen. Chule Pakai Houin sunga kidalha goulu ho, leng inpia gouho, chule Jerusalem a umden gou ho jouse, Babylon gam’a pohmanga aumlou nadia Hatchung nung Pakai heng a, taovuhen.
19 [I say this] because the [huge] pillars [that are in front of the temple] and the large water tank and the [ten water] carts and all the other items that are used [for offering sacrifices are still in this city].
Ajeh chu Hatchungnung Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ‘Houin maiya inkhom ho, kisilna sum-eng kong lent ah, kangtalai ho, chuleh thil chom chom ho jouse,
20 King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon left those things here when he exiled Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, to Babylon, along with all the [other] leaders of Jerusalem and [the leaders of other places in] Judah.
Babylon leng Nebuchadnezzar in, Judah lengpa Jehoiakim chapa Jehoiachin chuleh Judah leh Jerusalem a vaipo milen milal ho abonchauva Babylon gam’a sohchang’a ana kaimang pet’a, ana dalhah chengse
21 [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom the Israeli [people worship], say this about all those valuable things that are still outside the temple and in the palace of the king of Judah and in [other places in]:
Hatchungnung Pakai, Israel Pathen in, Houin sunga goulu kidalha ho leh Judah leng inpia kidalha ho, thua hitin aseiye.
22 They will [all] be carried away to Babylon. And they will stay there until I say that they should be brought back to Jerusalem. Then they will be bought back here. [That is what I, ] Yahweh, say.’”
Hiche thilho jouse hi abon’a, Babylon gam’a kipolutsoh ding, keiman kagelkhoh kahsea chukom’a umjing ding; Chujouteng le keiman kahin nungpoh kit a, hiche mun’a hi kakoi ding ahibouve, ati.
