1BOEIPA ol he kai taengla ha pawk tih,
1The word of the LORD came also unto me, saying:
2“Na yuu lo boeh. Nang ham canu capa khaw he hmuen ah om boel saeh,” a ti.
2Thou shalt not take thee a wife, neither shalt thou have sons or daughters in this place.
3He hmuen kah aka thaang canu kawng neh capa kawng khaw, amih aka cun a manu rhoek kawng neh he khohmuen ah amih aka sa a napa rhoek kawng he BOEIPA loh a thui.
3For thus saith the LORD concerning the sons and concerning the daughters that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that bore them, and concerning their fathers that begot them in this land:
4Tlohtat kah dueknah dongah duek uh ni. Rhaengsae uh pawt vetih up uh mahpawh. Diklai hman ah aek bangla om uh ni. cunghang neh, khokha neh khap uh ni. A rhok te vaan kah vaa ham neh diklai rhamsa ham maeh la poeh ni.
4They shall die of grievous deaths; they shall not be lamented, neither shall they be buried, they shall be as dung upon the face of the ground; and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their carcasses shall be meat for the fowls of heaven, and for the beasts of the earth.
5BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Rhok im la kun boeh. Rhaengsae kung la cet boeh. Amih te suem boeh. Ka ngaimongnah, sitlohnah neh haidamnah khaw he pilnam taeng lamloh ka coi coeng. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
5For thus saith the LORD: Enter not into the house of mourning, neither go to lament, neither bemoan them; for I have taken away My peace from this people, saith the LORD, even mercy and compassion.
6He khohmuen kah tanoe kangham khaw duek uh ni. Amih te up uh pawt vetih rhaengsae uh mahpawh. Amih ham te hlap pawt vetih kuet bal mahpawh.
6Both the great and the small shall die in this land; they shall not be buried; neither shall men lament for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them;
7Duek dongah nguekcoinah neh anih aka hloep ham vaengah khaw amih ham tael uh mahpawh. A manu a napa pataeng hloephloeinah boengloeng khaw tul uh mahpawh.
7neither shall men break bread for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall men give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother.
8Buhkoknah im kah amih taengah ngol ham, caak ham neh ok ham khaw kun boeh.
8And thou shalt not go into the house of feasting to sit with them, to eat and to drink.
9Israel Pathen Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Na mikhmuh kah hmuen ah he namamih tue vaengah tah omngaihnah ol neh, kohoenah ol, yulo ol neh, vasa ol neh kai loh kan duem sak.
9For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place, before your eyes and in your days, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride.
10He kah ol boeih he pilnam taengah he puen pah. Te vaengah nang te, 'Balae tih BOEIPA loh he yoethae tanglue cungkuem neh kaimih taengah a cal? Kaimih kathaesainah te banim? Mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA taengah mebang tholhnah nen nim ka tholh uh,” a ti uh ni.
10And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt tell this people all these words, and they shall say unto thee: 'Wherefore hath the LORD pronounced all this great evil against us? or what is our iniquity? or what is our sin that we have committed against the LORD our God?'
11Te vaengah amih te, “He he BOEIPA kah olphong ni, na pa rhoek loh kai n'hnoo uh tih pathen tloe rhoek hnukah pongpa uh. Amih taengah tho a thueng uh tih a bawk uh. Kai he n'hnoo uh tih ka olkhueng te tuem uh pawh.
11then shalt thou say unto them: 'Because your fathers have forsaken Me, saith the LORD, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshipped them, and have forsaken Me, and have not kept My law;
12Nangmih te na pa rhoek lakah a thae na saii uh. Hlang boeih loh a lungbuei thae kah thinthahnah hnukah na pongpa uh tih ka ol na hnatun uh moenih te.
12and ye have done worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the stubbornness of his evil heart, so that ye hearken not unto Me;
13Te dongah nangmih te he khohmuen dong lamloh namamih neh na pa rhoek loh na ming pawh khohmuen la kan hut ni. Te vaengah khoyin khothaih Pathen tloe taengah tho na thueng uh vetih nangmih taengah kolonah ka khueh mahpawh.
13therefore will I cast you out of this land into a land that ye have not known, neither ye nor your fathers; and there shall ye serve other gods day and night; forasmuch as I will show you no favour.'
14Te dongah BOEIPA kah olphong khohnin ha pawk coeng ke. Te vaengah Egypt diklai lamloh Israel ca rhoek aka khuen he hingnah BOEIPA ni ti voel mahpawt nim?
14Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be said: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt,'
15Tedae hingnah BOEIPA lat loh Israel ca rhoek te tlangpuei khohmuen lamloh, amih a heh nah khohmuen tom lamloh a loh. A napa rhoek taengah ka paek a khohmuen la ka mael sak ni.
15but: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the countries whither He had driven them'; and I will bring them back into their land that I gave unto their fathers.
16He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Kai loh tuihoi, tuihoi muep kan tueih vetih amih te ka vaih ni. Te phoeiah savai muep ka tueih vetih amih te tlang tom dong lamloh, som tom lamloh, thaelrhaep thaelpang lamloh a vai uh ni.
16Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith the LORD, and they shall fish them; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks.
17Amih kah longpuei boeih soah ah ka mik loh a dawn tih ka mikhmuh lamloh a thuh uh thai moenih. Te dongah amih kathaesainah te ka mikhmuh lamloh a thuh thai moenih.
17For Mine eyes are upon all their ways, they are not hid from My face; Neither is their iniquity concealed from Mine eyes.
18Amih thaesainah neh a tholhnah te rhaepnit la ka thuung lamhma van ni. Amih kah sarhingkoi maehrhok neh ka khohmuen he a poeih uh tih ka rho te a tueilaehkoi neh a hah sak uh.
18And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have profaned My land; they have filled Mine inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable things and their abominations.
19Ka sarhi neh ka lunghim, citcai khohnin ah ka thuhaelnah BOEIPA namah taengah diklai khobawt lamkah namtom rhoek ha pawk uh ni. Te vaengah a hong bueng te a thui vetih a pa rhoek te a honghi la pang uh cakhaw amih ham a hoeikhang moenih.
19O LORD, my strength, and my stronghold, and my refuge, in the day of affliction, unto Thee shall the nations come from the ends of the earth, and shall say: 'Our fathers have inherited nought but lies, vanity and things wherein there is no profit.'
20Hlang loh amah ham pathen khaw a saii nim? Tedae te rhoek te pathen moenih.
20Shall a man make unto himself gods, and they are no gods?
21Te dongah kai loh amih te tahae tue vaengah ka ming sak he. Ka kut neh ka thayung thamal he amih ka ming sak vetih kai ming Yahweh ni tila a ming uh bitni.
21Therefore, behold, I will cause them to know, this once will I cause them to know My hand and My might; and they shall know that My name is the LORD.
