Jeremiah 50
1 This is the word that Yahweh declared about Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, by the hand of Jeremiah the prophet,
Babilon hoi Khaldean taminaw e ram taranlahoi profet Jeremiah e pahni hno lahoi BAWIPA ni a dei e lawk teh,
2 “Report to the nations and cause them to listen. Lift up a signal and cause them to listen. Do not conceal it. Say, 'Babylon is taken. Bel is made ashamed. Marduk is dismayed. Its idols are put to shame; its images are dismayed.'
Miphunnaw koe dei pouh nateh pâpho haw. Lukkarei vo awh na teh, pathang awh. Hrawk awh hanh. Babilon la e lah ao vaiteh, Bel teh yeiraipo lah ao han. Merodak e cathut teh a kâkhoe toe. Babilon e meikaphawknaw teh yeiraipo awh teh, reppasei lah a kâbawng toe.
3 A nation from the north will arise against it, and make her land a desolation. No one will live in it; both man and beast will flee away.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahni taranlahoi miphun buet touh atunglah hoi a tho teh, apihai kho sak hoeh nahanlah a ram hah kingdi, tami hoi moithangnaw hai yawng awh vaiteh awm awh mahoeh toe.
4 In those days and at that time—this is Yahweh's declaration—the people of Israel and the people of Judah will come together to go with weeping and seek Yahweh their God.
Hatnae hnin hoi tueng nah teh, Isarel catounnaw hah tho awh vaiteh, amamouh hoi Judah catounnaw hoi khuika laihoi tho awh vaiteh, BAWIPA Cathut a tawng awh han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
5 They will ask the way to Zion and will set off toward it, saying, We will go and join ourselves to Yahweh in an everlasting covenant that will not be forgotten.”
Zion lah ceinae lamthung hah a pacei awh han, tho awh, yungyoe lawkkam pahnim hoeh nahanlah BAWIPA hnai awh telah ati awh han.
6 My people have been a lost flock. Their shepherds have led them astray in the mountains; they have turned them around from hill to hill. They went, they forgot the place where they had lived.
Ka taminaw teh tu kahmat e lah o awh. Tukhoumnaw ni mon dawk lam a payonsak toe. Ahnimanaw teh mon buet touh hoi buet touh dawk lam a kahma awh teh roumnae hmuen a pahnim awh toe.
7 Everyone who went out to them devoured them. Their adversaries said, 'We are not guilty, because they sinned against Yahweh, their true home—Yahweh, the hope of their ancestors.'
Kahmawtnaw pueng ni a kei awh teh, a tarannaw ni maimouh payon hoeh, BAWIPA e lannae kânguenae, a mintoenaw ni ngaihawinae BAWIPA lathueng roeroe vah yonnae a sak awh dawk doeh ati awh.
8 Leave from the midst of Babylon; go out from the land of the Chaldeans; be like male goats that leave before the rest of the flock does.
Babilon hoi kampuen awh, Khaldean ram dawk hoi tâcawt awh, hmaehu e rahak vah hmaetan patetlah awm awh.
9 For see, I am about to set in motion and raise up a group of great nations from the north against Babylon. They will arrange themselves against her. Babylon will be captured from there. Their arrows are like a skilled warrior who does not return empty-handed.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, thaihaw! Babilon tuk hanlah atunglae ram dawk hoi kalenpounge miphun hah thakasai sak vaiteh, ama tuk hanlah a kâcai vaiteh, hawvah man e lah ao han, a tahroe teh athakaawm ni teh tarantuk kathoume tami, ka thaw boihoeh e patetlah o han.
10 Chaldea will become plunder. All those who plunder it will be satisfied—this is Yahweh's declaration.
Khaldean teh raphoe e lah awm vaiteh, haw vah ka raphoekungnaw kaboumlah ao awh han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
11 You rejoice, you celebrate the plundering of my inheritance; you jump around like a calf stamping in its pasture; you neigh like a powerful horse.
Kaie râw na raphoe awh dawkvah, kanawmcalah na lunghawi awh nateh, hramkahring dawk maitolaca ka pâ e hoi marangtan ka cai e patetlah na o awh nakunghai,
12 So your mother will be greatly ashamed; the one who bore you will be embarrassed. See, she will be the least of nations, a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.
na manu yeiraipo vaiteh, na kakhekung yeiraipo han. Khenhaw! miphunnaw thung dawk hoi ka rahnoumpoung e, ka ke ram, ramke, thingyeiyawn lah na o han.
13 Because of Yahweh's anger, Babylon will not be inhabited, but will be a complete devastation. Everyone who passes by will shudder because of Babylon and will hiss because all of its wounds.
BAWIPA lungkhueknae kecu dawk apihai awm laipalah, kingdi lah o han. Babilon lah ka cet e taminaw pueng ni puen khai awh vaiteh, a rawkphainae dawk pathoenae lawk a dei awh han.
14 Arrange yourselves against Babylon all around her. Everyone who bends a bow must shoot at her. Do not keep back any of your arrows, for she has sinned against Yahweh.
Babilon kalup awh nateh ven awh, pala hoi ka awh, thaw awh hanh, bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA taranlahoi a yo toe.
15 Raise a shout against her all around! She has surrendered; her towers have fallen; her walls are torn down, for this is Yahweh's vengeance. Take vengeance on her! Do to her just as she has done!
A tengpam vah hramki sak awh, amahoima a kâhmoun toe. A rapan rawm vaiteh, tapangnaw a tip han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni moipathung e doeh. A lathueng vah moipathung awh, a sak e patetlah a lathueng sak van awh.
16 Destroy both the farmer who sows seed and the one who uses a sickle at the time of harvest in Babylon. Let each person turn back to his own people from the oppressor's sword; let them flee to their own land.
Babilon vah cati kapatuekung hoi cangkaanaw hoi cangkatinnaw hah tâkhawng awh, repcoungroenaw e tahloi taki dawk mae taminaw koe pâtam awh vaiteh, mae ram lah a yawng awh han.
17 Israel is a sheep scattered and driven away by lions. First the king of Assyria devoured him; then after this, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon broke his bones.
Isarel teh tu kâhei e doeh. Sendek ni a pakhi, hatei siangpahrang ni ahni a ca teh a poutnae koe Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar ni a hru totouh be a khoe.
18 Therefore Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel, says this: See, I am about to punish the king of Babylon and his land, just as I punished the king of Assyria.
Hatdawkvah, ransahu BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni hettelah a dei. Khenhaw! Assiria siangpahrang ka rek patetlah Babilon siangpahrang hoi a ram hah ka rek han.
19 I will restore Israel to his homeland; he will graze on Carmel and Bashan. Then he will be satisfied in the hill country of Ephraim and Gilead.
Isarel teh yampa a onae koe ka hrawi han. Karmel hoi Bashan vah a pawngpa han. Ephraim mon hoi Gilead vah ahni teh kaboumcalah ao han.
20 In those days and at that time, says Yahweh, iniquity will be looked for in Israel, but none will be found. I will inquire about the sins of Judah, but none will be found, for I will forgive the remnant that I spare.”
Hatnae hnin hoi tueng dawk Isarel yonnae ka tawng eiteh, hmawt mahoeh. Judah yonnae hai hmawt mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kacawi ni teh ka pâhlung e naw hah ka ngaithoum awh, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
21 “Arise against the land of Merathaim, against it and the ones inhabiting Pekod. Put them to the sword and set them apart for destruction—this is Yahweh's declaration—do everything that I am commanding you.
Marathaim ram heh tuk awh, A ram hoi Pekod vah khokasaknaw hah thet awh, he baw ditouh tâkhawng awh nateh kâ na poe e patetlah sak awh, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
22 The sounds of battle and enormous destruction are in the land.
Hote ram dawk taran pawlawk hoi ka patawpoung e rawkkahmanae ao.
23 How the hammer of all the lands has been cut apart and destroyed. How Babylon has become a destroyed place among the nations.
Talaivan pueng e cakkin a lawt teh a kâbawng toe. Miphunnaw thung hoi Babilon teh banghloimaw a rawk.
24 I have set a trap for you and you were taken, Babylon, and you did not know it! You were found and captured, because you opposed Yahweh.
Oe Babilon nang hanlah karap ka patung, panuek laipalah na kâman toe. BAWIPA na taran dawkvah, hnephnap e hoi man e lah na o han.
25 Yahweh has opened his armory and is bringing out the weapons for carrying out his anger. There is work for the Lord Yahweh of hosts in the land of the Chaldeans.
BAWIPA ni senehmaica bom a paawng teh lungkhueknae puengcang a la toe. Ransahu Jehovah Bawipa ni Khaldean taminaw e ram dawk sak hane a tawn.
26 Attack her from far away. Open her granaries and pile her up like heaps of grain. Set her apart for destruction. Leave no remnant of her.
Ramri poutnae koehoi tuk awh nateh, hnoim hah paawng awh. Kamkhueng awh nateh, he raphoe awh, banghai pâhlung hanh awh.
27 Kill all her bulls. Send them down to the place of slaughter. Woe to them, for their day has come—the time for their punishment.
A maitotan kanawnaw hah he thet awh, he thei e lah awm naseh. A yawkathout e lah ao awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a hnin a pha toe, ahni rek hnin roeroe a pha toe.
28 There is the sound of those fleeing, of those who are survivors, from the land of Babylon. These will report the vengeance of Yahweh our God for Zion, and vengeance for his temple.”
BAWIPA Cathut ni moipathungnae, a bawkim moipathungnae hah Zion vah pathung hanlah Babilon hoi a yawng teh ka tâcawt e taminaw e pawlawk hah
29 “Summon the archers against Babylon—all those who bend their bows. Camp against her, and let no one escape. Repay her for what she has done. Do to her by the measure she has used. For she had defied Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel.
Babilon tuk hanlah palakathoumnaw pueng hah kaw awh. A tengpam vah tungpupnae rim sak awh nateh, apihai tâcawt hanh naseh. A sak awh e patetlah moipathung awh. A sak awh e naw pueng hah a lathueng sak pouh van awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA Isarel Tami Kathoung hah hnephnap laihoi a kâoup.
30 So her young men will fall in the city squares, and all her fighting men will be destroyed on that day —this is Yahweh's declaration.”
Hatdawkvah, a thoundounnaw kho thung vah a due awh vaiteh, ransanaw hot hnin vah a due awh han, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
31 “See, I am against you, proud one—this is the declaration of the Lord Yahweh of hosts— for your day has come, proud one, the time when I will punish you.
Khenhaw! nang ka kâoup e tami, kai ni na taran telah ransahu Jehovah Bawipa ni ati. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang reknae hnin teh a pha toe.
32 So the proud ones will stumble and fall. No one will raise them up. I will light a fire in their cities; it will devour everything around him.
Ka kâoup e tami a rawpnae koehoi apinihai bout pathaw mahoeh. Khopuinaw dawk hmai ka tâco sak vaiteh, a tengpam kaawmnaw pueng he ka kak sak han.
33 Yahweh of hosts says this: The people of Israel are oppressed, together with the people of Judah. All the ones who captured them still hold them; they refuse to let them go.
Ransahu BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, Isarel catoun hoi Judah catoun teh repcoungroe e lah ao awh, san lah kahrawikungnaw ni a paung awh teh, tâcawt ngai awh hoeh.
34 The one who rescues them is strong. Yahweh of hosts is his name. He will truly plead their case, in order to bring rest to the land, and to bring strife to the ones inhabiting Babylon.
Ahnimouh karatangkung teh a thakasai e a min teh ransahu Jehovah doeh. Ahnimouh koe lah ama teh kampang vaiteh Babilon vah khokasaknaw hah runae a poe vaiteh, ram dawk roumnae hah ka pha sak han.
35 A sword is against the Chaldeans—this is Yahweh's declaration— and against the inhabitants of Babylon, her leaders, and her wise men.
Khaldean taminaw e lathueng tahloi a pha. Babilon e kho ka sak e kahrawikungnaw hoi, tami lungkaangnaw e lathueng hai a pha telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
36 A sword against those who say empty words! They will become fools! A sword against her soldiers! They will be filled with terror.
Tahloi ni kutkhetkathoumnaw a taran teh tamipathu lah ao awh han. Tahloi ni athakaawme taminaw hah taran vaiteh a pâyaw awh han.
37 A sword is coming against their horses, their chariots and all of the people who are in the midst of Babylon, so they will become like women. A sword is coming against her storerooms, and they will be plundered.
Tahloi ni marang hoi ranglengnaw hoi athung e tami kâkalawtnaw pueng hai a taran. Napui patetlah ao awh han. Tahloi ni a râwnaw taran vaiteh lawp e lah ao han.
38 A drought is coming on her waters, so they will become dry. For she is a land of worthless idols, and they act like people made insane by their dreadful idols.
Tui a hak teh remphui pouh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, meikaphawk ram lah ao. Meikaphawk hah a pathukhai awh.
39 So desert beasts with the jackals will inhabit there, and the young of ostriches will live in her. For all time, she will no longer be inhabited. From generation to generation, she will not be lived in.
Hatdawkvah kahrawng e sarang hoi Asuinaw hawvah kho a sak awh han. Kalauk, tavanaw hai hawvah kho a sak awh han. Ring e lah awm mahoeh toe, nâtuek hai ring e lah awm mahoeh toe.
40 Just as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbors—this is Yahweh's declaration— no one will live there; no person will stay in her.”
Cathut ni Sodom hoi Gomorrah hoi a tengpam e khonaw a raphoe e patetlah hawvah apihai khosak mahoeh toe. Tami capa apinihai pâtam mahoeh toe, telah BAWIPA ni a dei.
41 “See, a people is coming from the north; a great nation and many kings are being stirred up from the farthest parts of the earth.
Khenhaw! atunglae ram dawk hoi taminaw a tho awh. Talai poutnae koehoi miphun kalen hoi siangpahrang moikapap a tâco.
42 They will pick up bows and spears. They are cruel and have no compassion. Their sound is like the sea roar, and they are riding on horses, set out in order as men for battle, against you, daughter of Babylon.
Licung hoi tahroe a hrawm awh teh a nuencang kamathoutpoungnaw doeh. Lungmanae tawn awh hoeh. Ahnimae pawlawk teh tâlî, tuicapa pawlawk patetlah ao teh, marang dawk a kâcui awh teh, tami pueng tarantuk e patetlah a kamthoup awh teh, Oe! Babilon canu a tuk awh han.
43 The king of Babylon heard the reports about them and his hands fell limp in distress. Anguish seized him like a woman giving birth.
A pawlawk thai toteh Babilon siangpahrang e kut tha a youn toe. Camokhe tawmlei pataw e patetlah hote patawnae ni a man awh.
44 Behold! He goes up like a lion from the heights of the Jordan to the enduring grazing place For I will quickly cause them to run from it, and I will put someone who will be chosen in charge of it. For who is like me, and who will summon me? What shepherd is able to resist me?
Khenhaw! Jordan kâoupnae thung hoi sendek, saring onae hmuen koe a luen takhang e patetlah a tho han. Hatei ahni koehoi ahnimouh ka yawng sak han. A lathueng vah kâ tawn hane ka rawi e ka ta han. Kai patetlah e apimaw kaawm, apipatet ni maw kaie tueng a khoe thai han. Tukhoumkung apimaw ka hmalah kangdout thai han.
45 So listen to the plans that Yahweh has decided against Babylon, the plans that he has planned against the land of the Chaldeans. They will certainly be dragged away, even the smallest flock. Their pasturelands will be turned into ruined places.
Hatdawkvah, Babilon kong dawk BAWIPA pouknae, Khaldean taminaw e lathueng pouknae a tawn. Sarangnaw hah lawp lah ao vaiteh, pawngpanae hmuennaw kingdi lah ao han.
46 At the sound of conquered Babylon the earth shakes, and their shout of distress is heard among the nations.”
Babilon hah tuk teh lawp lah onae kamthang dawk hoi talai a kâhuet teh a khuinae kamthang miphunnaw pueng ni a thai awh han.
