< Jeremiah 52 >

1 Zedekiah a manghai vaengah kum kul kum khat lo ca tih Jerusalem ah kum hlai khat tah manghai van. A manu ming tah Hamutal tih, Hamutal tah Libnah lamkah Jeremiah canu ni.
Zedekiah [is] a son of twenty-one years in his reigning, and he has reigned eleven years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
2 Jehoiakim loh boethae cungkuem a saii bangla Zedekiah loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a saii.
And he does evil in the eyes of YHWH, according to all that Jehoiakim has done,
3 Te dongah a mikhmuh lamloh amih a voeih due Jerusalem neh Judah taengah BOEIPA kah thintoek om coeng. Zedekiah loh Babylon manghai te a tloelh.
for because of the anger of YHWH, it has been in Jerusalem and Judah until He has cast them from before His face, and Zedekiah rebels against the king of Babylon.
4 Te dongah anih a manghai te kum ko hla rha a pha tih hlasae a hnin rha vaengah tah Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar amah neh a caem boeih te Jerusalem la ha pawk. A taengah rhaeh uh tih a kaepvai ah buep a saii uh.
And it comes to pass, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has come—he and all his force—against Jerusalem, and they encamp against it, and build against it a fortification all around;
5 Manghai Zedekiah kah a kum hlai khat duela khopuei te vongup khuila pawk.
and the city comes into siege until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
6 A hla li kah hlasae hnin ko dongah tah khopuei khuiah khokha tlung tih khohmuen kah pilnam ham buh om pawh.
In the fourth month, on the ninth of the month, when the famine is severe in the city, and there has been no bread for the people of the land,
7 Te dongah khopuei te a va uh tih caemtloek hlang rhoek khaw boeih yong uh. Khoyin ah tah khopuei lamloh manghai dum kaep kah vongtung laklo kah vongka longpuei longah coe uh. Tedae khopuei kaep kah Khalden taeng lamloh kolken longpuei la cet uh.
then the city is broken up, and all the men of war flee, and go forth from the city by night, the way of the gate between the two walls that [is] by the king’s garden—and the Chaldeans [are] by the city all around—and they go the way of the plain.
8 Te dongah Khalden caem loh manghai hnukah a hloem uh tih Zedekiah te Jerikho kolken ah a kae uh. Te dongah a caem khaw anih taeng lamloh boeih taekyaak uh.
And the forces of the Chaldeans pursue after the king, and overtake Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho, and all his forces have been scattered from him,
9 Tedae manghai te a tuuk uh tih Khamath khohmuen Riblah kah Babylon manghai taengla a khuen uh tih anih sokah laitloeknah a thui pah.
and they capture the king, and bring him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah, in the land of Hamath, and he speaks with him—judgments.
10 Babylon manghai loh Zedekiah ca rhoek te a mikhmuh ah a ngawn pah tih Judah mangpa boeih te khaw Riblah ah a ngawn.
And the king of Babylon slaughters the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he has also slaughtered all the princes of Judah in Riblah;
11 Te phoeiah Zedekiah mik te a dael sak tih rhohum neh a khih. Anih te Babylon kah Babylon manghai taengla a khuen tih a dueknah khohnin duela a im kah ngoldoelhnah im ah a khueh.
and he has blinded the eyes of Zedekiah, and he binds him in bronze chains, and the king of Babylon brings him to Babylon, and puts him in the house of inspection to the day of his death.
12 Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar manghai kah a kum hlai ko kum, hla nga dongkah hlasae hnin rha dongah tah Babylon manghai mikhmuh ah aka pai imtawt boeiping Nebuzaradan te Jerusalem la ha pawk.
And in the fifth month, on the tenth of the month—it [is] the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon—Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, has come; he has stood before the king of Babylon in Jerusalem,
13 BOEIPA im te a hoeh tih manghai im neh Jerusalem kah im boeih, im tanglue boeih khaw hmai neh a hoeh pah.
and he burns the house of YHWH, and the house of the king, and all the houses of Jerusalem—even every great house he has burned with fire,
14 Jerusalem kaepvai kah vongtung boeih te imtawt boeiping hmuikah Khalden caem pum loh a palet uh.
and all the forces of the Chaldeans that [are] with the chief of the executioners have broken down all the walls of Jerusalem.
15 Te vaengah pilnam khodaeng neh khopuei ah aka sueng pilnam hlangrhuel khaw, Babylon manghai taengah cungku la aka cungku khaw, bibi thai hlangrhuel khaw imtawt boeiping khaw Nebuzaradan loh a poelyoe.
And of the poor of the people, and the remnant of the people who are left in the city, and those who are defecting, who have defected to the king of Babylon, and the remnant of the multitude, Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, has removed;
16 Tedae khohmuen kah khodaeng rhoek tah imtawt boeiping Nebuzaradan loh dumpho neh lotawn la a paih.
and of the poor of the land, Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, has left for vinedressers and for farmers.
17 Khalden loh BOEIPA im kah rhohum tung neh tungkho khaw, BOEIPA im kah rhohum tuitung khaw, amih kah rhohum boeih te aphaek uh tihBabylon la a khuen.
And the pillars of bronze that [are] in the house of YHWH, and the bases, and the bronze sea that [is] in the house of YHWH, the Chaldeans have broken, and they carry away all the bronze of them to Babylon;
18 Am neh hmaisoh khaw, paitaeh neh baelcak khaw, yakbu neh rhohum hnopai boeih, amih taengkah aka thotat rhoek te khaw a khuen uh.
and the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the bowls, and the spoons, and all the vessels of bronze with which they minister, they have taken away;
19 Baeldung neh baelphaih khaw, baelcak neh am khaw, hmaitung khaw, yakbu neh tuisi-am khaw, sui dongkah sui khaw, ngun khuika ngun te khaw imtawt boeiping loh a khuen.
and the basins, and the fire-pans, and the bowls, and the pots, and the lampstands, and the spoons, and the cups, the gold of that which [is] gold, and the silver of that which [is] silver, the chief of the executioners has taken.
20 Tung panit tui-im pakhat hmuikah tungkho, rhohum vaito hlai nit khaw a khuen. Te te manghai Solomon loh BOEIPA im ham a saii tih te rhohum hnopai boeih kah a khiing te sava pawh.
The two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve bronze oxen that [are] beneath the bases, that King Solomon made for the house of YHWH, there was no weighing of the bronze of all these vessels.
21 Tung a sang mah tung pakhat dongah a sang dong hlai rhet om coeng tih rhuihet neh dong hlai nit la a som coeng. A thah kutdawn pali thah tih khui.
As for the pillars, eighteen cubits [is] the height of the one pillar, and a cord of twelve cubits goes around it, and its thickness [is] four fingers hollow.
22 A sokah tungthi khaw rhohum tih tungthi pakhat kah a sang te dong nga om. Tungthi sokah sahamlong neh tale khaw a kaepvai khaw rhohum boeih ni. A pabae tung khaw te phek la tale neh om.
And the capital on it [is] of bronze, and the height of the one capital [is] five cubits, and network and pomegranates [are] on the capital all around, the whole [is] of bronze; and like these—the second pillar—and pomegranates.
23 Te dongah tale thaih te sawmko phoeiah parhuk om tih a kaepvai kah Sahamlong dongah khaw a pum la tale thaih yakhat om.
And the pomegranates are ninety-six on a side, all the pomegranates [are] one hundred on the network all around.
24 Imtawt boeiping loh khosoih boeilu Seraiah khaw, a hnukthoi khosoih Zephaniah neh cingkhaa aka tawt pathum te khaw a khuen.
And the chief of the executioners takes Seraiah the head priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold,
25 Caemtloek hlang soah hlangtawt la aka om imkhoem pakhat neh manghai maelhmai aka so hlang parhih a khuen. Te te khopuei khuiah a hmuh uh tih khohmuen pilnam aka hueh caempuei mangpa kah cadaek neh khopuei khui kah a hmuh khohmuen pilnam hlang sawmrhuk te khopuei lamloh a khuen.
and he has taken a certain eunuch out of the city, who has been inspector over the men of war, and seven men of those seeing the king’s face, who have been found in the city, and the head scribe of the host, who musters the people of the land, and sixty men of the people of the land, who are found in the midst of the city;
26 Amih te imtawt boeiping Nebuzaradan loh a khuen tih Riblah kah Babylon manghai taengla a thak.
and Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, takes them, and brings them to the king of Babylon at Riblah,
27 Amih te Babylon manghai loh a ngawn tih Khamath khohmuen kah Riblah ah amih te a duek sak. Judah tah amah khohmuen dong lamloh a poelyoe tangloeng.
and the king of Babylon strikes them, and puts them to death in Riblah, in the land of Hamath, and he removes Judah from off its own ground.
28 A kum rhih dongah tah Nebukhanezar loh pilnam he Judah hlang thawng thum phoeiah pakul pathum a poelyoe coeng.
This [is] the people whom Nebuchadnezzar has removed: in the seventh year, of Jews, three thousand and twenty-three;
29 Nebukhanezar kah a kum hlai rhet dongah Jerusalem lamkah hinglu ya rhet sawmthum patnit a khuen.
in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar—from Jerusalem—eight hundred thirty-two souls;
30 Nebukhanezar kah kum kul kum thum dongah imtawt boeiping Nebuzaradan loh Judah hinglu ya rhih sawmli panga neh hinglu boeih thawng li ya rhuk te a poelyoe.
in the twenty-third year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the guard, has removed of Jewish souls, seven hundred forty-five; all the souls [are] four thousand and six hundred.
31 Judah manghai Jehoiakhin hlangsol kah kum sawmthum kum rhih hla hlai nit hlasae hnin kul hnin nga lo coeng. Babylon manghai Evilmerodakh kah a ram a pai kum ah tah Judah manghai Jehoiakhin lu te thongim kah im lamloh a hlah.
And it comes to pass, in the thirty-seventh year of the expulsion of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth of the month, Evil-Merodach king of Babylon has lifted up, in the year of his reign, the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brings him out from the house of restraint,
32 A taengah a then a thui pah tih manghai rhoek kah ngolkhoel soah khaw, Babylon ah amah taengkah manghai rhoek taengah khaw Jehoiakhin ham ngolkhoel a khueh pah.
and speaks good things with him, and sets his throne above the throne of the kings who [are] with him in Babylon,
33 Te dongah a thongim himbai te a thovael tih manghai hmai kah buh te a hing tue khuiah phat a caak.
and he has changed his prison garments, and he has continually eaten bread before him, all the days of his life.
34 A buhkak tah buhkak mai akhaw anih te rhawp a paek. A hing tue khui neh a dueknah khohnin duela a hnin, hnin ah Babylon manghai taeng lamkah olka te khaw a yaak.
And his allowance—a continual allowance—has been given to him by the king of Babylon, the matter of a day in its day, until [the] day of his death—all [the] days of his life.
