< Jeremiah 20 >
1 And Pashhur son of Immer the priest — who also [is] overseer, leader in the house of Jehovah — heareth Jeremiah prophesying these things,
Jeremiah ni hottelah lawk a dei e hah BAWIPA im e kahrawikung kacuepoung lah kaawm e Immer capa vaihma Pashhur ni a thai.
2 and Pashhur smiteth Jeremiah the prophet, and putteth him unto the stocks, that [are] by the high gate of Benjamin, that [is] by the house of Jehovah.
Hottelah Pashhur ni profet Jeremiah hah a hem teh, BAWIPA im e Benjamin longkha atunglah kaawm e dawkvah, hlong a buet teh a paung.
3 and it cometh to pass on the morrow, that Pashhur bringeth out Jeremiah from the stocks, and Jeremiah saith unto him, 'Not Pashhur hath Jehovah called thy name, but — Magor-Missabib.
A tangtho vah Pashhur ni Jeremiah hah a rathap teh Jeremiah ni, BAWIPA ni na min teh Pashhur tet hoeh toe, Magormissabib telah ati toe atipouh.
4 For thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am making thee for a fear to thyself, And to all loving thee, And they have fallen by the sword of their enemies, and thine eyes are beholding, And all Judah I give into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he hath removed them to Babylon, And he hath smitten them with the sword.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, Khenhaw! nang hoi na huinaw pueng hanelah taki ka tho e lah na coung sak han. A tarannaw hah tahloi hoi a rawp awh vaiteh, na mit hoi na hmu han. Judah tami pueng hah Babilon kut dawk be ka poe han, ahnimouh ni Babilon vah san lah a hrawi awh vaiteh, tahloi hoi a thei awh han.
5 And I have given all the strength of this city, And all its labour, and all its precious things, Yea, all the treasures of the kings of Judah I do give into the hand of their enemies, And they have spoiled them, and taken them, And have brought them into Babylon.
Hothloilah, khopui tawntanae, tawk e lahoi a hmu awh e pueng, aphu kaawm e hno pueng, Judah siangpahrang râwnaw pueng hah a tarannaw kut dawk be ka poe han, ahnimouh ni a lawp awh vaiteh, a man awh han, Babilon vah a hrawi awh han.
6 And thou, Pashhur, and all dwelling in thy house, Do go into captivity. and Babylon thou dost enter, And there thou diest, and there thou art buried, Thou and all loving thee, To whom thou hast prophesied falsely.'
Nang Pashhur na imthung kaawmnaw pueng hoi san lah be na toung awh han. Babilon vah na cei vaiteh, haw vah na due han. Haw vah nama hoi na huinaw hai laithoe kapâphonaw pueng hoi pakawp lah be na o awh han telah ati.
7 Thou hast persuaded me, O Jehovah, and I am persuaded; Thou hast hardened me, and dost prevail, I have been for a laughter all the day, Every one is mocking at me,
BAWIPA nama ni na pasawt teh, ka tarawi toe. Nang teh kai hlak na tha a sai teh na tâ. Kanî a loum totouh panuilai lah na dei teh panuikhai e lah ka o.
8 Because from the time I speak I cry out, 'Violence and destruction,' I cry, For the word of Jehovah hath been to me For reproach and for derision all the day.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, lawk ka dei navah, ka hram teh kâyuekâounnae, pacekpahleknae telah ouk ka hram. BAWIPA e lawk teh kai hanelah hnintangkuem pathoenae hoi panuikhai e lah ao.
9 And I said, 'I do not mention Him, Nor do I speak any more in His name,' And it hath been in my heart As a burning fire shut up in my bones, And I have been weary of containing, And I am not able.
Ama teh ka toum mahoeh toe, a min lahoi lawk hai ka dei mahoeh toe, ka ti nakunghai, ka hru thung vah hmaisaan patetlah ka lungthin thung vah ouk ao. Kaawm khai thai hoeh niteh, ka khang thai roeroe hoeh.
10 For I have heard the evil report of many, Fear [is] round about: 'Declare, and we declare it,' All mine allies are watching [for] my halting, 'Perhaps he is enticed, and we prevail over him, And we take our vengeance out of him.'
Bangkongtetpawiteh, na panuikhai e naw hah ka thai. Avoivang hoi takinae ao. Raipot awh sei, raipot awh han, telah ati awh. Ka tâlaw nahanelah meng ka pawm e ka huikonaw ni, na pasawt thai yawkaw han, hottelah hoi tavai teh a lathueng vah pathung thai han telah ati awh.
11 And Jehovah [is] with me, as a terrible mighty one, Therefore my persecutors stumble and prevail not, They have been exceedingly ashamed, For they have not acted wisely, Confusion age-during is not forgotten.
Hatei, BAWIPA teh athakaawme tami, takikathopounge patetlah kai koe ao. Kai na ka rektapnaw hah a bo awh vaiteh, na tâ awh mahoeh. Kayayeirai hoi ao awh han, a lamcawn mahoeh dawkvah, a yungyoe a min mathoenae teh pahnim e lah awm mahoeh.
12 And, O Jehovah of Hosts, trier of the righteous, Beholder of reins and heart, I do see Thy vengeance out of them, For unto Thee I have revealed my cause.
Oe! ransahu BAWIPA, tamikalannaw ka tanouk e, lungthin hoi pouknae ka tapuet lah kahmawtkung, ahnimae lathueng vah na pathung e hah na hmu sak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka kong teh nama koe ka hruek toe.
13 Sing ye to Jehovah, praise Jehovah, For He hath delivered the soul of the needy From the hand of evil doers.
BAWIPA koevah la sak awh nateh, BAWIPA teh pholen awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, yonae kasaknaw a kut dawk hoi kabawp a ngai e naw hringnae hah a rungngang pouh.
14 Cursed [is] the day in which I was born, The day that my mother bare me, Let it not be blessed!
Ka khenae hnin teh thoebo lah awm seh, anu ni na khenae hni teh yawhawinae lah awm hanh seh.
15 Cursed [is] the man who bore tidings [to] my father, saying, 'Born to thee hath been a child — a male,' Making him very glad!
Apa koevah, capa na tawn telah lawk a phu teh, a lung kahawi sak e hah thoebo lah awm seh.
16 Then hath that man been as the cities, That Jehovah overthrew, and repented not, And he hath heard a cry at morning, And a shout at time of noon.
Ama teh BAWIPA ni pahren laipalah be raphoe e kho patetlah awm seh. Amom lah a pawlawknaw thai e lah awm seh. Kanîthun lah hramnae lawk thai naseh.
17 Because he hath not put me to death from the womb, And my mother is to me — my grave, And her womb a pregnancy age-during.
Camoim thung vah na thei hoeh dawkvah, na thet pawiteh anu von teh kaie phuen lah awm vaiteh, camoim ni pou na von han ei,
18 Why [is] this? from the womb I have come out, To see labour and sorrow, Yea, consumed in shame are my days!
Bang kecu dawk maw patang hoi lungmathoe hoi o hanelah kayayeirai dueng hoi ka hring thung a hninnaw hno hanelah camoim dawk hoi ka tâco telah ati.
