Jeremiah 38
1 And Shephatiah son of Mattan, and Gedaliah son of Pashhur, and Jucal son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur son of Malchiah, hear the words that Jeremiah is speaking unto all the people, saying,
Hahoi, Mattan capa Shephatiah, Pashhur capa Gedaliah, Shelemiah capa Jukal hoi Malkhijah capa Pashur tinaw ni, tami moikapap koe Jeremiah ni,
2 'Thus said Jehovah: He who is remaining in this city dieth, by sword, by famine, and by pestilence, and he who is going forth unto the Chaldeans liveth, and his soul hath been to him for a prey, and he liveth.
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, hete khopui dawk kaawm rae hah tahloi, takang hoi lacik hoi a due awh han. Hatei, Khaldean taminaw koe ka kâhmoun e tami teh a hring han. A hringnae teh ahnimouh koe poe e phu lah ao vaih a hring han.
3 Thus said Jehovah: This city is certainly given into the hand of the force of the king of Babylon, and he hath captured it.'
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, hete khopui heh Babilon siangpahrang ransanaw koe poe e lah ao vaiteh, a la awh han telah a dei awh e hah a thai awh.
4 And the heads say unto the king, 'Let, we pray thee, this man be put to death, because that he is making feeble the hands of the men of war, who are left in this city, and the hands of all the people, by speaking unto them according to these words, for this man is not seeking for the peace of this people, but for its evil.'
Hatdawkvah, kahrawikungnaw ni siangpahrang koevah pahren lahoi hete tami heh thei e lah awm naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahni ni ahnimouh koe hettelah lawk a dei teh, hete khopui thung e taran ka tuk hane naw hoi taminaw tha a youn sak. Hete tami ni taminaw hawi nahane tawng laipalah thoenae doeh a tawng telah ati awh.
5 And the king Zedekiah saith, 'Lo, he [is] in your hand: for the king is not able for you [in] anything.'
Siangpahrang Zedekiah ni khenhaw! ahni teh nangmae kut dawk poe lah ao toe nahoehmaw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, siangpahrang ni na ngai awh hoeh e ouk sak thai boihoeh telah a ti.
6 And they take Jeremiah, and cast him into the pit of Malchiah son of the king, that [is] in the court of the prison, and they send down Jeremiah with cords; and in the pit there is no water, but mire, and Jeremiah sinketh in the mire.
Jeremiah a ceikhai awh teh, ramveng rapan thung kaawm e siangpahrang capa Malkhijah talai rahim tangkom dawk a tâkhawng awh. Jeremiah teh tangkom thung tangdong dawk a pabo awh teh, tangdong dawk ao.
7 And Ebed-Melech the Cushite, a eunuch who [is] in the king's house, heareth that they have put Jeremiah into the pit; and the king is sitting at the gate of Benjamin,
Ethiopia tami siangpahrang im ouk kaawm boi e, Ebedmelek ni Jeremiah talai thung tangkom dawk a ta tie hah a la thai. Hatnavah siangpahrang teh Benjamin longkha koe a la tahung.
8 and Ebed-Melech goeth forth from the king's house, and speaketh unto the king, saying,
Ebedmelek teh siangpahrang im hoi a tâco teh, siangpahrang koevah,
9 'My lord, O king, these men have done evil [in] all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the pit, and he dieth in his place because of the famine, for there is no more bread in the city.'
ka bawipa siangpahrang, hete taminaw ni profet Jeremiah talai thung tangkom dawk pabo e hah kalenpounge yonnae a sak awh e doeh. Vonhlam hoi a onae hmuen koe a due yawkaw han doeh, bangkongtetpawiteh, khopui thung vaiyei awm hoeh toe telah a ti.
10 And the king commandeth Ebed-Melech the Cushite, saying, 'Take with thee from this thirty men, and thou hast brought up Jeremiah the prophet from the pit, before he dieth.'
Hahoi siangpahrang ni Ethiopia tami Ebedmelek hah kâ a poe teh hi hoi tami 30 touh hoi cet awh nateh, talai thung tangkom dawk a due hoehnahlan profet Jeremiah teh lat awh telah kâ a poe.
11 And Ebed-Melech taketh the men with him, and entereth the house of the king, unto the place of the treasury, and taketh thence worn-out clouts, and worn-out rags, and sendeth them unto Jeremiah unto the pit by cords.
Hottelah Ebedmelek ni tami a ceikhai teh, siangpahrang hnopai tanae im rahim a kâen teh angki karuem tâkhawng e hoi hnikapon hah a la teh, tangkom thung Jeremiah koe rui hoi a pabo pouh.
12 And Ebed-Melech the Cushite saith unto Jeremiah, 'Put, I pray thee, the worn-out clouts and rags under thine arm-holes, at the place of the cords,' and Jeremiah doth so,
Ethiopia tami Ebedmelek ni Jeremiah koe hete angki ka pon hoi hnikapon naw heh na yakba rahim rui hoi pakhit atipouh e patetlah Jeremiah ni a sak.
13 and they draw out Jeremiah with cords, and bring him up out of the pit, and Jeremiah dwelleth in the court of the prison.
Jeremiah teh talai thung tangkom dawk hoi rui hoi a rasa awh. Hottelah, Jeremiah teh ramvengnaw e rapan thung ka saw lah ao.
14 And the king Zedekiah sendeth, and taketh Jeremiah the prophet unto him, unto the third entrance that [is] in the house of Jehovah, and the king saith unto Jeremiah, 'I am asking thee a thing, do not hide from me anything.'
Hahoi siangpahrang Zedekiah ni Jeremiah hah a kaw teh, BAWIPA e im kâennae apâthum e dawk ahni teh a kâenkhai. Siangpahrang ni lawk na pacei han banghai pâphat hanh loe telah a ti.
15 And Jeremiah saith unto Zedekiah, 'When I declare to thee, dost thou not surely put me to death? and when I counsel thee, thou dost not hearken unto me.'
Jeremiah ni ka dei pawiteh, na thei payon han boma. Pouknae na poe nakunghai bout na ngai mahoeh telah atipouh.
16 And the king Zedekiah sweareth unto Jeremiah in secret, saying, 'Jehovah liveth, He who made for us this soul, I do not put thee to death, nor give thee unto the hand of these men who are seeking thy soul.'
Siangpahrang Zedekiah ni, BAWIPA ka hringnae kasakkung a hring e patetlah na thet mahoeh, nang na ka thet hane naw hai na poe mahoeh, telah arulahoi thoe a kâbo.
17 And Jeremiah saith unto Zedekiah, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of Hosts, God of Israel: If thou dost certainly go forth unto the heads of the king of Babylon, then hath thy soul lived, and this city is not burned with fire, yea, thou hast lived, thou and thy house.
Hat toteh, Jeremiah ni BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ransahu BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, Babilon siangpahrang kahrawikungnaw koe na kâhmoun awh pawiteh, na hringnae a hlout han, hete khopui hai hmai kang mahoeh, nama hoi na imthungnaw hai na hring awh han.
18 And if thou dost not go forth unto the heads of the king of Babylon, then hath this city been given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they have burnt it with fire, and thou dost not escape from their hand.'
Hatei, Babilon siangpahrang kahrawikungnaw koe na kâhmoun awh hoehpawiteh, hete khopui heh Khaldean taminaw kut dawk poe lah ao han, hmaisawi awh vaiteh, ahnimae kut dawk hoi na hlout awh roeroe mahoeh telah atipouh.
19 And the king Zedekiah saith unto Jeremiah, 'I am fearing the Jews who have fallen unto the Chaldeans, lest they give me into their hand, and they have insulted me.'
Siangpahrang Zedekiah ni Jeremiah koevah, Khaldean taminaw ka kâhmoun e Judah tami hah na man sak vaiteh, panuilai lah kaawm payon vaih tie ka lungpuen, atipouh.
20 And Jeremiah saith, 'They do not give thee up; hearken, I pray thee, to the voice of Jehovah, to that which I am speaking unto thee, and it is well for thee, and thy soul doth live.
Hatei, Jeremiah ni na man sak mahoeh, nang koe ka dei e BAWIPA e lawk ma yuem. telah pawiteh nang hanlah ahawi han, hring hai bout na hring han.
21 'And if thou art refusing to go forth, this [is] the thing that Jehovah hath shewn me:
Hatei, na kâhmoun hoehpawiteh, hethateh BAWIPA e lawk ni na hmusak e doeh.
22 That, lo, all the women who have been left in the house of the king of Judah are brought forth unto the heads of the king of Babylon, and lo, they are saying: Persuaded thee, and prevailed against thee, Have thine allies, Sunk into mire have thy feet, They have been turned backward.
Khenhaw! Judah siangpahrang im dawk kaawm e napuinaw pueng Babilon siangpahrangnaw koevah, ceikhai lah ao vaiteh, hote napuinaw niyah, na hui kahawinaw ni na dum awh teh na tâ awh toe, na khok hah tangdong dawk a mang tahma vah koung na cei takhai awh han, telah ati awh han.
23 'And all thy wives, and thy sons, are brought forth unto the Chaldeans, and thou dost not escape from their hand, for by the hand of the king of Babylon thou art caught, and this city is burnt with fire.'
Na yu na canaw hah Khaldean taminaw koe a ceikhai awh vaiteh, a kut dawk hoi na tâcawtkhai mahoeh toe. Babilon siangpahrang kut dawk man e lah na o vaiteh, nang kecu dawk hete khopui hmaisawi awh han telah atipouh.
24 And Zedekiah saith unto Jeremiah, 'Let no man know of these words, and thou dost not die;
Zedekiah ni Jeremiah koevah, hete lawk apinihai thai hanh naseh, telah pawiteh na dout mahoeh telah atipouh.
25 and when the heads hear that I have spoken with thee, and they have come in unto thee, and have said unto thee, Declare to us, we pray thee, what thou didst speak unto the king, do not hide [it] from us, and we do not put thee to death, and what the king spake unto thee,
Hatei, kahrawikungnaw ni a kâpato roi e hah a thai awh. Nang koe a tho awh teh, siangpahrang na dei e hoi siangpahrang ni nang koe a dei e hai na dei pouh haw, kaimouh koe banghai pâphat hanh, na thet awh mahoeh, telah tet awh pawiteh,
26 then thou hast said unto them, I am causing my supplication to fall before the king, not to cause me to return to the house of Jonathan, to die there.'
Ahnimouh koevah Jonathan im lah na ban sak nateh, hawvah ka due hoeh nahane lah doeh siangpahrang koe ka kâhei, telah na ti pouh han telah atipouh.
27 And all the heads come in unto Jeremiah, and ask him, and he declareth to them according to all these words that the king commanded, and they keep silent from him, for the matter was not heard;
Hahoi, Jeremiah koe a tho awh toteh kahrawikungnaw ni a pacei awh. Siangpahrang ni kâ a poe e patetlah a dei pouh. Hat toteh, bout pacei awh hoeh toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, pouknae hah panuek awh hoeh.
28 and Jeremiah dwelleth in the court of the prison till the day that Jerusalem hath been captured, and he was [there] when Jerusalem was captured.
Hottelah Jerusalem a tuk awh teh a lanae hnin totouh, Jeremiah teh thongim rapan thung ao rah. Hahoi Jerusalem teh a la awh.
