Jeremiah 45

1 This is the word that Jeremiah the prophet told Baruch son of Neriah. This happened when he wrote in a scroll these words at Jeremiah's dictation—this was in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah, and he said,

Judah siangpahrang Jehoiakim, Josiah capa a bawinae kum pali nah, Jeremiah ni dei e lawk cauk dawk thut lahun nah, Neriah capa Baruk koe profet Jeremiah ni dei e lawk teh,

2 “Yahweh, God of Israel, says this to you, Baruch:

Oe! Baruk, BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni nang koe hettelah a dei,

3 You have said, 'Woe is me, for Yahweh has added agony to my pain. My groaning has wearied me; I find no rest.'

nang ni tami yawthoe e lah ka o, bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni ka rucatnae dawk lungmathoenae a thapsin, ka kâhramnae dawk ka hrip toe, thadamnae banghai awm hoeh telah na ti.

4 This is what you must say to him: 'Yahweh says this: See, what I built, I am now tearing down. What I planted, I am now pulling up—I will do this throughout all the earth.

Ahni koe hettelah na dei han, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! ram tangkuem dawk ka sak tangcoung e hah bout ka raphoe vaiteh ka ung tangcoung e bout ka phawk han.

5 But are you hoping for great things for yourself? Do not hope for that. For see, disaster is coming on all humanity—this is Yahweh's declaration—but I am giving you your life as your plunder everywhere you will go.'”

Ma hanelah hno kalen na tawng maw, tawng hanh, bangkongtetpawiteh, moithang pueng e lathueng vah thoenae ka pha sak han telah BAWIPA ni a dei. Hatei na hringnae teh na ceinae pueng dawk nang koe ka poe e phu lah ao han telah ati.
