1 Jeremiah themgao pan, Babylon gam’a Nebuchadnezzar lengpa khut noiya sohchang ho: Upa ho, Thempu ho, Themgao ho, chule mipite jouse kom’a, Jerusalem’a pat a, hiche hi athot ahi.
THUS SAITH THE LORD AGAINST THE PHILISTINES;
2 Hiche athot nahi, Lengpa Jehoiachin, anu lengnu, Judah gamsung leh Jerusalem’a leng chapate, milen milal ho, chuleh khutthem natong ho abonchauva, soh’a akikaimang nung ahi.
Behold, waters come up from the north, and shall become a sweeping torrent, and it shall sweep away the land, and its fulness; the city, and them that dwell in it: and men shall cry and all that dwell in the land shall howl,
3 Aman hiche lekha thot chu, Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar henga, Zedekiah lengpan palaiya asolji Shaphan chapa Elasah leh Hilkiah chapa Gemariah khut’a anathot ahi. Aman lekhathot achun hitin aseije.
at the sound of his rushing, at [the sound of] his hoofs, and at the rattling of his chariots, at the noise of his wheels: the fathers turned not to their children because of the weakness of their hands,
4 Hatchungnung Pakai Isreal Pathen in, Jerusalem’a kon’a Babylon gam’a sohchang’a ana tolmangsa ho henga hitin aseije.
in the day that is coming to destroy all the Philistines: and I will utterly destroy Tyre and Sidon and all the rest of their allies: for the Lord will destroy the remaining [inhabitants] of the islands.
5 In tampi kisah’un, kihol tah in cheng un. Honlei kibolun lang aga neuvin.
Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ascalon is cast away, and the remnant of the Enakim.
6 Ji kipuiyun, cha tampi hing uvin, chule nachateu chu ji neisah uvin lang, tule cha tampi neiyu vin. Pung uvin lang kemsuh hih hel uvin.
How long wilt thou smite, O sword of the Lord? how long will it be ere thou art quiet? return into thy sheath, rest, and be removed.
7 Chule nasoh channau khopi’a din, chamna leh khantouna aumna ding in, na tong uvin lang hatah in pang uvin. Hiche khopi thalheng in taovun, chutileh amaho phattouna-a chu nanghon jong phatna nakimu diu ahi.
How shall it be quiet, whereas the Lord has given it a commission against Ascalon, and against the regions on the sea-coast, to awake against the remaining [countries]! CONCERNING IDUMEA, thus saith the Lord; There is no longer wisdom in Thaeman, counsel has perished from the wise ones, their wisdom is gone,
8 Hatchungnung Pakai, Isreal Pathen chun hitin aseije, Nangho lah’a cheng nathemgao houleh phunsan themho kilhep lhah sah hih un. Amahon mang aseiju jong ngaidauvin.
their place has been deceived. Dig deep for a dwelling, ye that inhabit Daedam, for he has wrought grievously: I brought trouble upon him in the time at which I visited him.
9 Ajeh chu amaho chu kasolpoi tin Pakaiyin aseije.
For grape-gatherers are come, who shall not leave thee a remnant; as thieves by night, they shall lay their hand upon [thy possessions].
10 Pakai yin hitin aseije, ‘Nangho kum sotpi Babylon gam’a nasohchan diu ahi. Amavang phat alhinteng, keiman nangho kahungvil uva chule nangho dia kakitepna chu kabulhit ding ahi. Chutengle, katepsa bang’a hiche mun’a hi kalepuilut kitding mahiuve.
For I have stripped Esau, I have uncovered their secret places; they shall have no power to hide themselves, they have perished [each] by the hand of his brother, my neighbour, and it is impossible
11 Ajeh chu nangho dinga kathilgon ho chu keiman kahenai, tin Pakaiyin aseiye. Hahsatna chulouva naphattouna dinguva kagon ahin, khonunga nakinep nau bulhit nading a kagon ahi.
for thy fatherless one to be left to live, but I shall live, and the widows trust in me.
12 Hiche nikho chule, nangho kaheng’a nahung tao uva, keiman nataonau kangaipeh ding nahiuve.
For thus saith the Lord; They who were not appointed to drink the cup have drunk [it]; and thou shalt by no means be cleared:
13 Chutia chu, nanghon nalungthim pumpiuva neihol ule, keima neimutei diu ahi.
for by myself I have sworn, saith the Lord, that thou shalt be in the midst of her an impassable [land], and a reproach, and a curse; and all her cities shall be desert for ever.
14 Pakaiyin aseiye, nanghon keima neimudoh diu, chule keiman nangho sohchan na kasuhbeiding, nakithe chehnau gamho’a kon’a kahin chopkhom ding, hiche gamsung a hi kahin lepuilut kitding, nangho hamphatna ding kasemdoh ding ahi, ati.
I have heard a report from the Lord, and he has sent messengers to the nations, [saying, ]Assemble yourselves, and come against her; rise ye up to war.
15 Nanghon Babylon gamsung’a jong Pakaiyin themgao nakoipeh dan’in asei yuve.
I have made thee small among the nations, utterly contemptible among men.
16 Amavang, David lengpa laltouna-a touva vaihompa thudol leh Babylon gam’a kaimang’a umlou, amoh ho, nasopiteu, chule Jerusalem a tuchan’a chengden ho chungchang thudol Pakaiyin hitin aseiye.
Thine insolence has risen up against thee, the fierceness of thine heart has burst the holes of the rocks, it has seized upon the strength of a lofty hill; for as an eagle he set his nest on high: thence will I bring thee down.
17 Hatchungnung Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, ‘Keiman amaho chunga gal kalhun khumsah ding, amaho chu theichangga monlha banga kakoi ding ahi.
And Idumea shall be a desert: every one that passes by shall hiss at it.
18 Chule keiman amaho chu gal kadel jamsah ding, kel kalhah sah’a chule natna hise kalan khumsah ding, chule namtin vaipi laha kathethang ding ahiuve. Amaho chu, kadelmangna munjousea chu, miho dia tijat umle kidah umtah hidiu, miho houset leh daithanga umding ahiuve.
As Sodom was overthrown and Gomorrha and they that sojourned in her, saith the Lord Almighty, no man shall dwell there, nor shall any son of man inhabit there.
19 Ajeh chu, keiman kathemgao te mangcha-a aheng uva avel vel'a kaseiho, angaipouve. Chule nangho migam’a sohchang a um honjong kathusei nangaideh pouve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye, ati.
Behold, he shall come up as a lion out of the midst of Jordan to the place of Aetham: for I will speedily drive them from it, and do ye set the young men against her: for who is like me? and who will withstand me? and who [is] this shepherd, who shall confront me?
20 Hijeh chun, Babylon gam’a sohchanga katolmang nangho chengsen, hiche kathusei hohi phaten ngai uvin.
Therefore hear ye the counsel of the Lord, which he has framed against Idumea; and his device, which he has devised against the inhabitants of Thaeman: surely the least of the sheep shall be swept off; surely their dwelling shall be made desolate for them.
21 Hatchungnung Pakai, Isreal Pathen chun, nathemgao hou, kamin’a jouva gaothu seiho: Kolaiah chapa Ahab chule Maaseiah chapa Zedekiah, chungchang thu hitin aseiye. Keiman amaho chu, Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar khut’a kapeh doh’a aman nangho mitmu tah’a athagam diu ahi.
For at the sound of their fall the earth was scared, and the cry of the sea was not heard.
22 Jerusalem’a pat Babylon gam’a sohchang’a umhon, mi koitobang khat chunga agaosap nom phat ule, ‘‘Babylon lengpan ahinglaiya meiya akangot Zedekiah leh Ahab bang in, Pakaiyin navol hen’’ atiuva, kigaosapna-a achinden dingu ahitai.
Behold, he shall look [upon her] as an eagle, and spread forth [his] wings over her strongholds; and the heart of the mighty men of Idumea shall be in that day as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
23 Ajeh chu amahon chonset melsetah aboldoh tauve. Amahon aheng akomteu jinu ho chu jonthanghoi abolpiuvin, Chule kamin in jouthu jeng aseiyun, keiman kaseilou ho ngen aseitauve. Hiche ho jouse melchih a sakhi a keima pang kahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye, ati.
24 Chuujouvin, Pakaiyin Nehelam mi Shemaiah jah’a chun hitin aseiye.
25 Hatchungnung Pakai, Isreal Pathen in hitin aseiye, ‘Nangman nangma thutah'in, Maaseiah chapa Zephaniah thempu chu, lekha nathot in chule Jerusalem a chengho leh thempu ho jong hiche lekhathot chu nathot in, Nangman Zephaniah jah’a,

27 Chuti ahileh, ibol’a Anathoth khomi Jeremiah chu, napho’a nasuh tanglou ham?
28 Ajeh chu Jeremiah chun, hilanga Babylon gam’a sohchangho heng’a lekha ahinthot in, ‘‘Nangho nasohchannau hi phat sottah hiding ahi. Hijeh chun in kisah unlang cheng uvin, chule Honlei kibol uvin lang hon-ga jong neuvin,” tin ahinseiye, ati.
29 Hichun Zephaniah thempupan hiche lekhathot chu Jeremiah themgao kom’a achoiyin, ajah a asimpeh tai.
30 Chuin Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga hitin aseiye.
31 Babylon a sohchang ho jouse ding in lekha thot inlang, hitin seipeh in: Pakaiyin Shemaiah leh achilhahte chung chang thu, hitin aseiye. Kei Pakaiyin Shemaiah leh achilhahte chu talen kamatsah teiding ahi. Ijeh inem itileh, keiman kasollou pa, ama themgaova kiseiya, jouthua nangho nalhep uva natahsan sah u ahi.
32 Hijeh a chu, keiman ama leh achilhahte talen kamatsah ding ahiuve. Hiche mite hin, kamite dinga katep thilpha kabol dingho amulou dingu ahi. Ajeh chu, aman keiman doumah aboltai.” Tin Pakaiyin aseiye, ati.
