Jeremiah 17
1 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, With the point of a diamond, Graven on the tablet of their heart, And on the horns of your altars,
Monsom ka hring e thingkung koevah, ahnimae khoungroe hoi thingmeikaphawk hah a catounnaw ni a pouk awh lahun nah,
2 As their sons remember their altars and their shrines, By the green tree, by the high hills.
Judah yonnae teh sumcacung hoi thut lah ao teh, talung phukaawm pâsu hoi ahnimae lungthin phen dawk tarik lah ao teh, khoungroe ki dawk hai tarik lah ao.
3 O My mountain in the field — thy strength, All thy treasures — for a prey I give, Thy high places for sin in all thy borders.
Ram thung e kaie mon, ram thung pueng na yonnae dawkvah, na bawinae hoi na tawnta na pâtung e râw pueng taran kut dawk ka poe han.
4 And thou hast let go — even through thyself, Of thine inheritance that I gave to thee, And I have caused thee to serve thine enemies, In a land that thou hast not known, For a fire ye have kindled in Mine anger, Unto the age it doth burn.
Na sak payonnae dawkvah, kai ni na poe e râw koehoi ka takhoe han toe. Na panue boihoeh e ram taran kut dawk san na toung sak han. Ka lungkhueknae hmai teh a kaman sak toe.
5 Thus said Jehovah: Cursed [is] the man who doth trust in man, And hath made flesh his arm, And from Jehovah whose heart turneth.
Tami kâuep teh a lungthung vah BAWIPA koehoi kangheng e tami teh thoebo e lah ao.
6 And he hath been as a naked thing in a desert, And doth not see when good cometh, And hath inhabited parched places in a wilderness, A salt land, and not inhabited.
Ahni teh thingyeiyawn dawk thingke patetlah ao vaiteh, kahawi hno ka tho nakunghai hmawt mahoeh, ka ke e tanghling talai apinihai a ohoehnae palawi talai hmuen koe ahni teh ao han.
7 Blessed [is] the man who trusteth in Jehovah, And whose confidence hath been Jehovah.
Hatei, BAWIPA kâuep niteh, ama dawkvah, ngaiuepnae katawnnaw teh a yawhawi.
8 And hath been as a tree planted by waters, And by a rivulet he sendeth forth his roots, And he doth not see when heat cometh, And his leaf hath been green, And in a year of dearth he is not sorrowful, Nor doth he cease from making fruit.
Ahni teh tuirai vah ung e thing, tui ao nah koevah a tangpha ka payang e hoi a kâvan. Khokang nakunghai takinae awm hoeh, a hna hai hringsuepcalah pou ao. Khokang kum hai lungpuennae tawn hoeh, a paw hai sarut boihoeh.
9 Crooked [is] the heart above all things, And it [is] incurable — who doth know it?
Lungthin teh bangpueng hlak hai huenghai kaawm poung e abuemlahoi kahawihoehe doeh. Apinimaw a panue thai han.
10 I Jehovah do search the heart, try the reins, Even to give to each according to his way, According to the fruit of his doings.
A nuencang hoi tawksaknae patetlah poe hanlah kai BAWIPA teh pouknae a tanouk teh lungthin ka pakhingpalang kung lah ka o.
11 A partridge hatching, and not bringing forth, [Is] one making wealth, and not by right, In the midst of his days he doth forsake it, And in his latter end — he is a fool.
Ka lan hoeh lah hnopai ka tawnta e tami teh, bakoum ni amae a tadui hoeh e a awt e patetlah ao. A roung lahun navah a roedeng vaiteh, apoutnae koe teh tami pathu lah ao han.
12 A throne of honour on high from the beginning, The place of our sanctuary,
Apuengcue hoi rasangpoung lah kaawm bawitungkhung teh mamae hmuen kathoung lah ao.
13 The hope of Israel [is] Jehovah, All forsaking Thee are ashamed, And 'My apostates' in the earth are written, For they have forsaken Jehovah, A fountain of living waters.
Oe! BAWIPA, Isarelnaw ni kângaiuep e, nang kapahnawtnaw pueng yeirai a po awh han. Kai kamlang takhai e pueng teh, vaiphu dawk ca thut e patetlah ao awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA hringnae tuiphuek a ceitakhai awh.
14 Heal me, O Jehovah, and I am healed, Save me, and I am saved, for my praise [art] Thou.
Oe! BAWIPA na hawi sak haw, pawiteh ka hawi han, na rungngang haw ka hlout han, kai ni nang doeh na pholen.
15 Lo, they are saying unto me: 'Where [is] the word of Jehovah? pray, let it come.'
Ahnimouh ni kai koevah, BAWIPA e lawk teh namaw ao, atuvah kuep sak haw, na ti pouh awh.
16 And I hastened not from feeding after Thee, And the desperate day I have not desired, Thou — Thou hast known, The produce of my lips, before Thy face it hath been,
Na hnukkâbang e tukhoumkung lah ka onae koehoi ka roun mahoeh. Hawihoehnae hnin a pha hane hai ka ngai hoeh. Ka tâcawt e lawk hah na panue teh na hmalah ao.
17 Be not Thou to me for a terror, My hope [art] Thou in a day of evil.
Kai hanelah taki kawi lah awm hanh, ronae a pha navah nang teh kai ni kângue e hmuen doeh.
18 Let my pursuers be ashamed, and let not me be ashamed — me! Let them be affrighted, and let not me be affrighted — me! Bring in on them a day of evil, And a second time [with] destruction destroy them.
Kai na ka rektapnaw hah yeiraipo awh naseh, hatei kai teh yeirai na po sak hanh, ahnimanaw teh yawng awh naseh, hatei kai teh, na yawng sak hanh. Ahnimanaw van vah ronae phat sak nateh, let hni touh hoi ahnimouh lathueng phat sak haw.
19 Thus said Jehovah unto me: 'Go, and thou hast stood in the gate of the sons of the people, by which kings of Judah come in, and by which they go out, and in all gates of Jerusalem,
BAWIPA ni kai koevah hettelah a dei, cet nateh taminaw e kho rapan longkha, Judah siangpahrangnaw a tâco kâen koevah, Jerusalem rapan longkha pueng koe kangdout haw.
20 and thou hast said unto them: Hear a word of Jehovah, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all inhabitants of Jerusalem, who are coming in by these gates,
Ahnimanaw koevah, kâen tâcawt e taminaw pueng hoi Judah siangpahrangnaw pueng voi, BAWIPA lawk teh thai awh haw.
21 Thus said Jehovah, Take ye heed to yourselves, And ye bear not a burden on the day of rest, Nor have ye brought [it] in by the gates of Jerusalem.
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, sabbath hnin hnori na phu hoeh nahan, Jerusalem na kâenkhai hoeh nahan kâhruetcuet awh.
22 Nor do ye take out a burden from your houses on the day of rest, Yea, any work ye do not do, And ye have sanctified the day of rest, As I have commanded your fathers.
Na imthungkhu hoi hnori sin awh hanh. Sabbath hnin vah thaw tawk awh hanh, na mintoenaw koevah kâ ka poe tangcoung patetlah sabbath hnin vah kathoungcalah ya awh.
23 And they have not hearkened nor inclined their ear, And they stiffen their neck not to hear, And not to receive instruction.
Hatei, ahnimouh ni a thai ngai awh hoeh teh, a hnâ hai pakeng awh hoeh, a lungpata sak awh teh, ka patounnae lawk hah thai awh hoeh, dâw ngai awh hoeh.
24 And it hath been, if ye certainly hearken unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah, So as not to bring in a burden By the gates of this city on the day of rest, And to sanctify the day of rest, So as not to do in it any work —
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, hatei nangmouh ni ka lawk na ngai awh hoeh. Sabbath hnin vah hete rapan longkha koehoi hnokari hah na sin awh hoehpawiteh, thaw na tawk awh laipalah sabbath hnin hah kathoungcalah na ya awh pawiteh,
25 Then entered by the gates of this city have kings and princes, Sitting on the throne of David, Riding in a chariot, and on horses, They, and their princes, the man of Judah, And inhabitants of Jerusalem, And this city hath remained to the age.
Devit e bawitungkhung dawkvah, ka tahung e leng hoi marang kâcui e, siangpahrangnaw ni hete rapan longkhanaw dawk hoi a bawinaw hoi a kâen awh han. Ahnimouh hoi bawinaw ni Judah taminaw hoi Jerusalem vah kho kasaknaw hoi, hete khopui thung vah a yungyoe na o awh han.
26 And they have come in from cities of Judah, And from suburbs of Jerusalem, And from the land of Benjamin, And from the low country, And from the hill-country, and from the south, Bringing in burnt-offering, and sacrifice, And present, and frankincense, And bringing praise [to] the house of Jehovah.
Judah khonaw hoi Jerusalem tengpam khonaw hoi Benjamin ram hoi akalae ram hoi mon lae ram hoi, Negeb ram koehoi taminaw a tho awh vaiteh, lunghawi thuengnae hah BAWIPA im a poe awh han.
27 And if ye do not hearken unto me to sanctify the day of rest, And so as not to bear a burden, And to come in at the gates of Jerusalem on the day of rest, Then I have kindled a fire in its gates, And it hath consumed the high places of Jerusalem, And it is not quenched!'
Sabbath hnin kathoungcalah a ya awh teh, sabbath hnin vah Jerusalem rapan longkhanaw koehoi hnori phu laihoi kâen hoeh nahanelah a dei e hah na ngai awh hoehpawiteh, Jerusalem rapan longkhanaw koevah, kadout thai hoeh e hmai ka tâco sak vaiteh, Jerusalem siangpahrang im a kak vaiteh roum mahoeh toe.
