< Jeremiah 42 >

1 Then all the captains of the forces, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least even to the greatest, came near.
Hichun gal lamkai jouse, Kareah chapa Johanan leh Hoshaiah chapa Jezariah jaonan, chule mipite jouse aneopen’a pat alenpen geiyin, Jeremiah kom ahin naiyun.
2 And said to Jeremiah the prophet, We beseech thee, let our supplication be accepted before thee, and pray for us to the LORD thy God, [even] for all this remnant; (for we are left [but] a few of many, as thy eyes do behold us: )
Amahon Jeremiahthemgaopa jah’a “Keiho ding in Pakai na-Pathen kom’a nei taopeh un. Nang in namu hi ahi, simkham lou keiho cheng, lhomcha bouhi dalhah’a um kahitauve. Keiho hi masang’a toh tekah thei kahitapouve.
3 That the LORD thy God may show us the way in which we may walk, and the thing that we may do.
Keiho neitaopeh un, ajeh chu, Pakai na-Pathen chun kachena diu leh kaboldiu, eihiltei ding’u ahi,” atiuve.
4 Then Jeremiah the prophet said to them, I have heard [you]; behold, I will pray to the LORD your God according to your words; and it shall come to pass, [that] whatever thing the LORD shall answer you, I will declare [it] to you; I will keep nothing back from you.
Jeremiah in adonbut in, “Aphai, nanghon nangeh bang un, Pakai na-Pathen u heng’a keima taoving’e. Chule Pakaiyin nangho ding’a ahinsei chanchu, imlou hel’a kaseipeh ding nahiuve,” ati.
5 Then they said to Jeremiah, The LORD be a true and faithful witness between us, if we do not even according to all things for which the LORD thy God shall send thee to us.
Hichun amahon Jeremiah jah’a, “Keiho ding’a Pakai na-Pathen in nangkom’a ahinsei bang bang’a katoh louva ahile, Pakai chu kitah tah in kachung uva sakhin pang jeng hen.
6 Whether [it be] good, or whether [it be] evil, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God, to whom we send thee; that it may be well with us, when we obey the voice of the LORD our God.
Apha hihen aphalou hijongle, keihon Pakai i-Pathen u thusei chu kangai diu ahi. Ajeh chu keihon nangma Pathen heng’a taoding’a kasol’u nahi. Chule keihon ama thu kangaiyu leh keiho ding’a imajouse apha hiding ahi,” atiuve.
7 And it came to pass after ten days, that the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah.
Nisom jouvin, Pakaiyin Jeremiah heng’a thu ahinsei yin,
8 Then called he Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who [were] with him, and all the people from the least even to the greatest,
Hichun Jeremiah in Kareah chapa Johanan leh adang galbol lamkai ho jouse, chule mipi ho jouse chu, aneopen’a pat alenpen geiyin, abonchauvin akoukhom soh keiyin,
9 And said to them, Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, to whom ye sent me to present your supplication before him;
Amaho jah’a nanghon Pakai Israel Pathen heng’a na ngaichat u thum ding’a neisol’u ahin, Ama chun hitin aseiye.
10 If ye will still abide in this land, then will I build you, and not pull [you] down, and I will plant you, and not pluck [you] up: for I repent of the evil that I have done to you.
Nangho hiche gamsung’a hin chengden uvin. Nangho lungdetteh a nachen den ule, keiman nangho kaphu detdiu, kabodoh louhel ding nahiuve. Ajeh chu keiman nachung uva thilse kabolsa chengse chu phamo kasan, kalung kakheltai, ati.
11 Be not afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom ye are afraid; be not afraid of him, saith the LORD; for I [am] with you, to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.
“Nanghon Babylon lengpa chu kicha hih un, Ajeh chu keiman nangho ka umpiuva, ama thahat a kon’a kahuhdoh ding nahiuve,” tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
12 And I will show mercies to you, that he may have mercy upon you, and cause you to return to your own land.
Keiman nangho ka khoto jal uva chu, amatah in nangho nahepi thei nading uva, hepina lungthim kapeh ding, chutengle aman nangho nagam sung uva nachensah diu ahi.
13 But if ye say, We will not dwell in this land, neither obey the voice of the LORD your God,
Amavang, nanghon Pakai na-Pathen’u thusei hi nangaidauva, keiho hiche gamsung’a chengpou ving’e natiuva;
14 Saying, No; but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we shall see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor hunger for bread; and there will we dwell:
Keiho Egypt gam’a cheuving ting, gal kisat umlouna chule gilkel thoh louna, chu kom’a gacheng tauving’e, natiuleh,
15 And now therefore hear the word of the LORD, ye remnant of Judah; Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; If ye wholly set your faces to enter into Egypt, and go to sojourn there;
Pakai thusei hi phaten ngaiyun, “Nangho Judah mite dalhah’a um amoh chengse, Thaneipen Pakai, Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye.” “Nangho nacheuva Egypt gam’a chu, nanghon nagin gin’u gal kisat
16 Then it shall come to pass, [that] the sword, which ye feared, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt, and the famine of which ye were afraid, shall follow close after you there in Egypt; and there ye shall die.
Chuche gam’a chu, nanghon nagin gin’u gal kisat chun nahin phahdiu, chule nakichat pen’u kellha chun nanung’u ahin juipeh ding ahi. Chutengle nangho hiche gam’a chu nathiden ding’u ahi.
17 So shall it be with all the men that set their faces to go into Egypt to sojourn there; they shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: and none of them shall remain or escape from the evil that I will bring upon them.
Koi hijongle, Egypt gam’a chea chengden ding’a kigo ho jouse chung’a, hiche hamsetna chu chuding ahi. Nangho gal’a nathidiu, kelthoh a nathidiu chule natna hsea nathigam diu ahi. Chuteng keiman kalhunsah hiche hamsetna-a kon’a ajamdoh koimacha umlou helding ahi,” ati.
18 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; As my anger and my fury hath been poured forth upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem: so shall my fury be poured forth upon you, when ye shall enter into Egypt: and ye shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach; and ye shall see this place no more.
Thaneipen Pakai Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye, “Jerusalem mite chung’a kalungsatna hoise kabuh lhah khum bang’a, Egypt gam’a gachenglut nangho jouse chung’a jong kabuhlhah khum ding ahi. Chuteng, nangho thet umtah, tijat umtah, gaosap chengle miho nuisat nahidiu ahi. Chule nanghon a itih’a nagam sung’u namukit lou diu ahi.
19 The LORD hath said concerning you, O ye remnant of Judah; Go ye not into Egypt: know certainly that I have admonished you this day.
Ngaiyuvin, Vo Judah mite dalhah a umho! Pakaiyin aseiye. Nangho Egypt gam’a che hih uvin. Tunia nangho kahilchah nau thupeh hi suhmil ding gohih beh un.
20 For ye dissembled in your hearts, when ye sent me to the LORD your God, saying, Pray for us to the LORD our God; and according to all that the LORD our God shall say, so declare to us, and we will do [it].
Ajeh chu, nanghon Pakai na-Pathen u kom’a nangaichat u thum’a keima neisol’u chun, ipi hijongle Pakaiyin asei jouse chu keihon bol jeng’u ving’e, natiuvin. Ahivang in nalung theng pouve.
21 And [now] I have this day declared [it] to you; but ye have not obeyed the voice of the LORD your God, nor any [thing] for which he hath sent me to you.
Hichun, imchep beihel in Pakai thusei jouse nangho kaseipeh tauve. Ahivang in, nanghon Pakai na-Pathen’u thupeh hochu, khatcha nangai pouve.
22 Now therefore know certainly that ye shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, in the place whither ye desire to go [and] to sojourn.
Hijeh chun, keiman nangho kicheh tah’a kaseipeh nahiuve. Nangho Egypt gamsung’a chu, chemjam’a nathidiu, kelthoh’a nathidiu, chule natna hisea nathi gamdiu ahi,” ati.
