< Jeremiah 39 >

1 In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army came against Jerusalem, and besieged it.
Judah lengpa Zedekiah lengpa lengvaipoh kumko lhinkum, lhasom lhin in, Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar leh asepaite ahung kon uvin, Jerusalem khopi ahin delkhum tauvin ahi.
2 In the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a breach was made in the city.
Chuchejou kumni leh keh lhinkum, Zedekiah lengvaipoh kumsom lekhat lhinkum, lhali lhin in, Babylon miten Jerusalem kulpi bang munkhat ahin vokeh uvin, khopi sung chu alotauvin ahi.
3 All the princes of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the middle gate: Nergal Sharezer, Samgarnebo, Sarsechim the Rabsaris, Nergal Sharezer the Rabmag, with all the rest of the princes of the king of Babylon.
Hichun Babylon sepaite leh avaipoteu, abonchauvin khopi sunga ahung lut uvin, kelkot lailha pen’a chun atoudentauve. Amaho chu: Nergar-sharezer samgar, Nebo-Sarsekim, Nergar-sharezer dangkhat toh chuke gamvaipo dang dangho toh ahiuve.
4 When Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, then they fled and went out of the city by night, by the way of the king’s garden, through the gate between the two walls; and he went out toward the Arabah.
Judah lengpa leh asepaiten, Babylon mite khopi sunga ahunglut’u chu amu-uvin, abonchauvin ajamdoh tauve. Amahon jan muthim noiya chun, kulpi bang teni kikah a kum kelkot chu ajotpaiyun, lengpa honlei lampia acheuvin, Jordan phaicham ajontauvin ahi.
5 But the army of the Kasdim pursued them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. When they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he pronounced judgment on him.
Ahivangin, Babylon sepaiten amaho chu anung del un, Jericho phaicham a aphauvin, lengpa chu amantauve. Amahon Zedekiah lengpa chu, Hamath gam’a Riblah mun’a um Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar kom’a apuiluttauve. Hichun Nebuchadnezzar lengpan Zedekiah chunga thu atantai.
6 Then the king of Babylon killed Zedekiah’s sons in Riblah before his eyes. The king of Babylon also killed all the nobles of Judah.
Zedekiah lengpa chu, Babylon sepaiten, Judah gamvaipo holeh leng chapate jouse, asatlih’u chu, amittah in avetsah uvin ahi.
7 Moreover he put out Zedekiah’s eyes and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
Chuin, Zedekiah lengpa chu amit teni akaldoh peh un, thihkhaovin ahen un, Babylon gamlanga akaitauvin ahi.
8 The Kasdim burned the king’s house and the people’s houses with fire and broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
Hichun Babylon miten, lengpa inpi jouse jaonan Jerusalem khopi chu neiyin ahallha tauve. Chule khopi kulpi bang jouse jong chu asuchim soh tauve.
9 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the rest of the people who remained in the city, the deserters also who fell away to him, and the rest of the people who remained.
Chujouvin, in-ngah lamkaipa Nebuzaradan leh midang aumden ho chule ama henga hung kipelut chengse chu, Babylon gam’a sohchang dingin akaitauvin ahi.
10 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, who had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.
Ahin Nebuzaradan chun, Judah gamsunga mivaicha dehset ho chu, lengpilei honleh loumun tampi apen, phatea avettup diuvin angansetan ahi.
11 Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon commanded Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard concerning Jeremiah, saying,
Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar in, in-ngahpa Nebuzaradan chu Jeremiah holdoh dingin, thupeh aneitan ahi.
12 “Take him and take care of him. Do him no harm; but do to him even as he tells you.”
Aman Nebuzaradan jah’a, “Amapa hi phaten vetup inlang, koima bolset sah hih in. Aman angaichat chan penlang, aman asei bang bangin jen in,” ati.
13 So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, Nebushazban, Rabsaris, and Nergal Sharezer, Rabmag, and all the chief officers of the king of Babylon
Hijeh chun in-ngahpa Nebuzaradan, vaihom pipu Nebushazban, lengpa thumop Nergar-sharezer chule Babylon lengpa noiya lengvaipoho chun,
14 sent and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guard, and committed him to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should bring him home. So he lived among the people.
Mi asol uvin, singkul a kon’in Jeremiah agapuidoh sah uvin, avetup dingin Shaphan tupa, Ahikam chapa, Gedaliah chu anganse tauve. Hichun Gedaliah in Jeremiah chu ainlam’a alepuiyin, hitichun, ama amite lalh’a acheng dentai.
15 Now the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah while he was shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
Jeremiah chu songkul'a akihen nalaiyin, Pakaiyin akom’a thu ahinseiye.
16 “Go, and speak to Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, ‘The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will bring my words on this city for evil, and not for good; and they will be accomplished before you in that day.
“Chenlang Ethiopia mi Ebed-melech chu seipeh in. Thaneipen Pakai, Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye; Keiman hiche khopi douna kanaseisa banga kahin bolding ahi. Keiman hamsetna achunguva kalhunsah ding, hichu apha hilou ding, nangman namittah a amaho manthah chu namu ding ahi.
17 But I will deliver you in that day,” says the LORD; “and you will not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid.
Amavang hiche nikho chuleh keiman nangma chutobang kichat tijat na-a kon’a kahuh dohding nahi.
18 For I will surely save you. You won’t fall by the sword, but you will escape with your life, because you have put your trust in me,” says the LORD.’”
Ajeh chu keiman nangma neitahsan jal’a, keiman nangma hinkho chu kahuh doh ding nahi. Keiman nangma kahuhdoh’a bitkeiya kaumsah ding nahi,” tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
