Jeremiah 45

1 Judah gam’a, Josiah chapa Jehoiakim lengvaipoh kal kumli lhin in, Jeremiah themgaopan Neria chapa Baruch kom’a thu aseipih in, Baruch in athusei jouse chu lekhabua ajihlut in. Aman hitin aseiye.

This is the word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch son of Neriah when he wrote these words on a scroll at the dictation of Jeremiah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah:

2 Baruch ngaiyin, Israel Pathen in hitin aseiye.

“This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch:

3 Nangin, kathoh gim valtai; Kathoh natnahi keidin avaltai. Ahinla Pakaiyin eipehbe nalaiye. Keima athipai ding kahitai chule kicholdo phat kaneitapoi.

You have said, ‘Woe is me because the LORD has added sorrow to my pain! I am worn out with groaning and have found no rest.’”

4 Vo Baruch, Pakaiyin hitin aseiye. Keiman kasah dohsa hiche nam mite hi kaphet lhah ding, chule kaphusa chu kabodoh ding ahi.

Thus Jeremiah was to say to Baruch: “This is what the LORD says: Throughout the land I will demolish what I have built and uproot what I have planted.

5 Nang le nang kikhoh sah’a, chan-loupi bou naki hol ham? Hiti chun boldan, keiman mijouse chunga hamsetna kalhun sah ding ahibouve. Amavang, keiman nachena lam lam’a, nahinkho kahoipih ding nahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye, ati.

But as for you, do you seek great things for yourself? Stop seeking! For I will bring disaster on every living creature, declares the LORD, but wherever you go, I will grant your life as a spoil of war.”
