Jeremiah 15
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1Then said the LORD unto me: 'Though Moses and Samuel stood before Me, yet My mind could not be toward this people; cast them out of My sight, and let them go forth.
1To pacoengah Angraeng mah kai khaeah, Ka hmaa ah Mosi hoi Samuel to angdoe moe, lawkthui hoi langlacadoeh, ka poekhaih amkhraih mak ai; Judah kaminawk to ka hmaa hoi takhoe o ving ah, caeh o ving lai nasoe.
2And it shall come to pass, when they say unto thee: Whither shall we go forth? then thou shall tell them: Thus saith the LORD: Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for captivity, to captivity.
2Nihcae mah, naa ah maw ka caeh o han loe? tiah na naa o nahaeloe, duek han pahoe ih kaminawk loe, duekhaih khaeah, sumsen han pahoe ih kaminawk loe, sumsen khaeah, khokhahaih hoi duek han pahoe ih kaminawk loe, khokhahaih khaeah, misong ah pahoe ih kaminawk loe, misong ah caeh o tih, tiah Angraeng mah thuih, tiah thuih paeh, tiah ang naa.
3And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the LORD: the sword to slay, and the dogs to drag, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and to destroy.
3Nihcae nuiah ka suek han ih misa palitonawk loe, hum hanah sumsen, ruet hanah uinawk, caak moe paaeh hanah, van ih tavaanawk hoi long ih moisannawk hae ni, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
4And I will cause them to be a horror among all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.
4Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah capa Manasseh loe Jerusalem ah sak ih hmuen pongah, long praenawk boih ah raihaih ka phaksak han.
5For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? Or who shall bemoan thee? Or who shall turn aside to ask of thy welfare?
5Aw Jerusalem, mi mah maw na tahmen tih? To tih ai boeh loe mi mah maw na qah thui tih? To tih ai boeh loe ngantui maw tiah dueng hanah, mi maw nang khaeah angzo tih?
6Thou hast cast Me off, saith the LORD, thou art gone backward; Therefore do I stretch out My hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.
6Kai nang pahnawt sut moe, hnukbang nam laem boeh pongah, na nuiah ban ka phok moe, kang hum han; dawnpakhuemhaih ka tawn mak ai, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
7And I fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I bereave them of children, I destroy My people, since they return not from their ways.
7Nihcae to prae khongkhanawk ah takhi hawhhaih paqa hoiah ka hawh han; a caanawk to palung ka setsak han, a caeh o haih loklam hoi amlaem o ai pongah, nihcae to kang hmatsak han.
8Their widows are increased to Me above the sand of the seas; I bring upon them, against the mother, a chosen one, even a spoiler at noonday; I cause anguish and terrors to fall upon her suddenly.
8Judah ih lamhmainawk loe ka hmaa ah tuipui ih savuet pongah pop o tih; thendoengnawk ih amno hum kaminawk to athun naah ka patoeh han; nihcae nuiah zit kaom tasoehhaih to ka phaksak han.
9She that hath borne seven languisheth; her spirit droopeth; her sun is gone down while it was yet day, she is ashamed and confounded; and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the LORD.'
9Ca nongpa sarihto tapen kami loe, thaboeng moe, hinghaih qui apet boeh; anih hanah loe athun li naah ni duem pae boeh; anih loe azathaih to tongh moe, poek anghmang sut boeh; kanghmat thoemto kaminawk doeh sumsen hoiah hum hanah, a misanawk khaeah ka paek han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
10Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have not lent, neither have men lent to me; yet every one of them doth curse me.
10Kam no, kai loe khosak bing boeh! Prae boih ah angzoeh koeh kami, misa angcoeng koeh kami ah nang tapen moeng boeh! Amekhaih hnuk hanah minawk han tangka ka coisak ai; minawk ih tangka doeh ka coi ai; toe kami boih mah kai kasae ang thuih o.
11The LORD said: 'Verily I will release thee for good; verily I will cause the enemy to make supplication unto thee in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.
11Angraeng mah, Kahoih ai atue phak naah, kahoih ah kang suek han; raihaih hoi patangkhanghaih atue ah na misanawk mah nang khaeah tahmenhaih hni o tih, tiah thuih.
12Can iron break iron from the north and brass?
12Judah kaminawk, sum maw, to tih ai boeh loe sumboeng to na khaek thai ai batih toengah, aluek bang hoiah angzo misanawk to na pazawk thai mak ai.
13Thy substance and thy treasures will I give for a spoil without price, and that for all thy sins, even in all thy borders.
13Na sak ih zaehaihnawk pongah, na prae thungah na tawnh ih hmuenmae hoi tacongnawk to hmuenmae lomh kaminawk khaeah azom ah ka paek han.
14And I will make thee to pass with thine enemies into a land which thou knowest not; for a fire is kindled in My nostril, which shall burn upon you.'
14Na panoek ai ih prae ah na misanawk hoi nawnto kang caehsak han; nangcae kangh hanah, palung ka phuihaih hmai baktiah angqong boeh, tiah a thuih.
15Thou, O LORD, knowest; Remember me, and think of me, and avenge me of my persecutors; take me not away because of Thy long-suffering; know that for Thy sake I have suffered taunts.
15Aw Angraeng, nang mah panoek; na panoek poe ah loe, na khenzawn ah; kai pacaekthlaek kaminawk to lu la ah; ka misanawk nuiah palungsawk hmah, kai hae na takhoe ving hmah; kai loe nang pongah kasaethuihaih to ka yok boeh, tiah panoek ah.
16Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and Thy words were unto me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart; because Thy name was called on me, O LORD God of hosts.
16Ka hnuk ih na loknawk to ka pazui boeh; Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw, kai loe na hmin hoi kawk ih kami ah ka oh pongah, na lok loe kai han anghoehaih hoi oephaih ah oh.
17I sat not in the assembly of them that make merry, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of Thy hand; for Thou hast filled me with indignation.
17Kai loe kami pahnui thuih kaminawk angpophaih ahmuen ah kang hnu ai; nihcae hoi anghoehaih doeh ka sah ai; ka nuiah ban na koeng moe, palungphuihaih hoiah nang koisak pongah, kaimabueng ni kang hnut sut.
18Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, so that it refuseth to be healed? Wilt Thou indeed be unto me as a deceitful brook, as waters that fail?
18Tipongah kai ih ahma loe nat parai moe, thah thai ai ahma, kahoih thai ai ahma ah oh loe? Nang loe kai hanah amsawnlok thui kami, tui kakaang vacong tuinawk baktiah maw na oh boeh?
19Therefore thus saith the LORD: If thou return, and I bring thee back, thou shalt stand before Me; and if thou bring forth the precious out of the vile, thou shalt be as My mouth; let them return unto thee, but thou shalt not return unto them.
19To pongah Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; nam laem let nahaeloe, ka tok sak hanah, kang hoih han; avang ai lok to thui ai, atho kaom loknawk to na thuih nahaeloe, kai ih pakha baktiah na om tih; nihcae loe nang khaeah amlaem o let nasoe; toe nang loe nihcae khaeah amlaem let hmah.
20And I will make thee unto this people a fortified brazen wall; and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith the LORD.
20Hae kaminawk khaeah kacak sumkamling tapang ah kang ohsak han; nang to pahlong moe, loisak hanah nang khaeah ka oh pongah, nihcae mah na tuh o cadoeh, na pazawk o mak ai, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
21And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.
21Kasae kaminawk ih ban thung hoiah kang pahlong moe, zit kaom kaminawk ban thung hoiah kang loisak han.
