< Jeremiah 7 >

1 Hiche thuhi, Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga aseiyin, hitin ati.
2 Kipat in, Pakai houin lutna kotbul’a gadingin, mipite henga hiche thuhi gaphongjaltan. Vo Juda mite, Pakaiya hungkon thuhi ngaiyun. Pakai chibai boh dinga hilai mun’a hunglut jousen, nabon’un ngaiyuvin.
Hear you the word of the Lord, all Judea.
3 Pakai Van Pathen, Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye. Tuyeng injong, nahindolu leh nathilbolu aphalou jouse dalhauvin. Chutileh nangho na gamsunguva hi kachendensah ding nahiuve.
Thus says the Lord God of Israel, Correct your ways and your devices, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
4 Ahinlah, hilaimun’a Pakai houin aumnai, nangho nahoidoh teidiu ahi, tia jou leh nal’a thusei ho kilheplhah sah hih un. Amahon muntin’a, Pakai houin hilaiya aume, Pakai houin hilaiya aume, tin asei lele uvin ahi.
Trust not in yourselves with lying words, for they shall not profit you at all, saying, It is the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord.
5 Amavang, nanghon nalunggel’u leh nathilbolu aphalou jouse na dalhahuva, nangho kah’a khat leh khat thu adih’a nakitanpihuva ahileh, keiman nangho kahepiuva kakhoto ding nahiuve.
For if you thoroughly correct your ways and your practices, and do indeed execute judgement between a man and his neighbour;
6 Nanghon gamdang kholjin miho, chagate leh meithai ho nabolgenthei dauva, chuleh toltha thisan so nabol dauva chuleh semthu Pathen ho nahou dauleh,
and oppress not the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, and go not after strange gods to your hurt:
7 Keiman napu napateu kanapehsa hiche gamsunga hi nangho aitih’a kachensah ding nahiuve.
then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land which I gave to your fathers of old and for ever.
8 Nanghon, Pakai houin hilaiya aume, eiho huhdoh’a um ihitauve, tia jouthu seile ho’a chun kingai hih’un, pannabei ahibouve.
But whereas you have trusted in lying words, whereby you shall not be profited;
9 Hitia chu, nanghon naguh chatuva, tol nathauva, mitoh najonuva, Baal pathen houna gim namtwi nahluva chuleh pathen dangho nung najuijinguva,
and you murder, and commit adultery, and steal, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and are gone after strange gods whom you know not,
10 Chuteng hilai mun’a keima angsunga nahung dinuva, kamin pan’a ‘Eiho huhdohihitauve’ natiuva, chuleh nanghon thet um tahtah ho nahiti boljing diu ham?
so that it is evil with you; yet have you come, and stood before me in the house, whereon my name is called, and you have said, We have refrained from doing all these abominations.
11 Nangho mitvet’a hi, hiche kamin’a kiminvosa houin hi, gucha michom ho kokhuh ahi, nati ngapu hitam? Tahbeh in hilai mun’a thilse kibol jouse keimatah in abonchan kamusoh hel e, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Is my house, whereon my name is called, a den of robbers in your eyes? And, behold, I have seen [it], says the Lord.
12 Shiloh mun’a tun cheuvin, keima neihouna diuva kamin’a kalhendohsa mun chu ahi. Kami Israelte chonset jeh’a achunguva ipi kabol hitam, gavetauvin ati.
For go you to my place with is in Selo, where I caused my name to dwell before, and see what I did to it because of the wickedness of my people Israel.
13 Nanghon chonset hijatpi nabolun, keiman tanglou hel’a kaseipih vangun ngaisah in naneipouve. Chuleh keiman nangho kakouvin neihoudeh pouve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
And now, because you have done all these deeds, and I spoke to you, but you listened not to me; and I called you, but you answered not;
14 Hijeh’a chu, keiman Shiloh kasuhmang banga, tua hi kamin’a nakisonpiu hiche houin hi kasuhmang ding, chuleh napu napateu kapehsa hiche mun hi kasuhmang ding ahi.
therefore I also will do to the house whereon my name is called, wherein you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Selo.
15 Chuleh keiman nainkote Israelte chunga kabol banga, nangho kamitmua kon’a sohchang dinga kadelmang ding nahiuve.
And I will cast you out of my sight, as I cast away your brethren, all the seed of Ephraim.
16 Vo Jeremiah, hiche mite hi taopih datan. Amaho din taodan lang chuleh kap jong kap hih in. Chuleh amaho din kahenga hung tao hih in, ajeh chu keiman kangaipih lou ding nahi.
Therefore pray not you for this people, and intercede not for them to be pitied, yes, pray not, and approach me not for them: for I will not listen [to you].
17 Amahon, Judah gam khopi ho leh Jerusalem khopi lailunga, anop nop abolu khu, nangman namu lou ham?
Seest you not what they do in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
18 Keima kalung analheh e! Vetan, chapang hon thing achom un, mipaten thil tona ding mei atih un, numeihon van lengnu asah u pathennu houna dingin changbong ameh un, changlhah asemuve. Chuleh keima lung natsah nadin amahon pathen dangho henga donthei thilto atohuvin, eipohnat sah uve.
Their children gather wood, and their fathers kindle a fire, and their women knead dough, to make cakes to the host of heaven; and they have poured out drink-offerings to strange gods, that they might provoke me to anger.
19 Amahon alung natsahuva alunghansah uva chu keima kahilou ham? tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Do they provoke me to anger? says the Lord: do they not [provoke] themselves, that their faces may be ashamed?
20 Hijeh chun Hatchungnung Pakaiyin aseiye, Keiman hilaiya hi, mihem hihen, sahem hihen, thingphung holeh loujaova lousoh gaho hijongleh, kalungsatna meikou chu kabuh lhah ding, chuleh meikou phalmit mohel banga akah ding ahi, ati.
Therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, my anger and wrath shall be poured out upon this place, and upon the men, and upon the cattle, and upon every tree of their field, and upon the fruits of the land; and it shall burn, and not be quenched.
21 Pakai Van Pathen leh Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye, pumgo thilto naboluva chuleh kilhaina thilto chom chom nabol hou chu, kilah uvin lang nanghon nachaisoh uvin.
Thus says the Lord, Gather your whole burnt offerings with your meat-offerings, and eat flesh.
22 Keiman napu napateu Egypt gam’a kon’a kahin puidoh chun, amaho kom’a pumgo thilto leh kilhaina thilto kangehpoi.
For I spoke not to your fathers, and commanded them not in the day wherein I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, concerning whole burnt offerings and sacrifice:
23 Keiman kangeh chu,’ kathu ngaiyun, chutileh keima nangho Pathen kahia, nangho kamite nahidiu ahi. Chuleh naphatthei nadiuvin, ijakai kathupeh bangin boluvin, kati.
but I commanded them this thing, saying, Hear you my voice, and I will be to you a God, and you shall be to me a people: and walk you in all my ways which I shall command you, that it may be well with you.
24 Ahivangin kamiten kathusei ngai nahsah in aneipouve. Amahon lungthim setah leh louchaltah in, adei deiyin aboluvin, mache louvin anungche jouvin ahi.
But they listened not to me, and their ear gave no heed, but they walked in the imaginations of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward;
25 Napu napateuvin Egypt gam ahin dalhah niuva pat tuni geiyin, keiman kalhacha themgaoho tanglouvin niseh in ahenguva kasol jingin ahi.
from the day that their fathers went forth out of the land of Egypt, even until this day. And I sent to you all my servants, the prophets, by day and early in the morning: yes, I sent [them],
26 Ahivangin kamiten kathusei angaipouve, chuleh anakhanguva jah ding jong agelpouve. Louchal tah in aum un, apu apateu sangin thilse jo aboltauve.
but they listened not to me, and their ear gave no heed; and they made their neck harder than their fathers.
27 Hijat hi amaho seipehin, amavang na sei ngaideh pouvinte. Nangman gihsalnan amaho kou jong lechun, amahon nahin houydeh pouvinte.
Therefore you shall speak this word to them;
28 Chuteng nangin amaho seipeh in, Hiche nam mite hi Pakai a Pathenu thusei ngailoute ahiuvin, chuleh engbolna jong hilna-a kisanthei loute ahiuve. Alahuva thutah amangtan chuleh akamsungva jong thutah akijatapoi.
This is the nation which has not listened to the voice of the Lord, nor received correction: truth has failed from their mouth.
29 Nalu kihettol inlang puldouvin, chuteng molsang laiya nachangin ga kaptan. Ajeh chu Pakaiyin alunghan jeh’a hiche nam mite hi apaidoh a adalhah ahitai.
Cut off your hair, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on your lips; for the Lord has reprobated and rejected the generation that does these things.
30 Ajeh chu, Judah miten kamitmu changin chonset aboltauve. Amahon kamin a kiminvo houin sunga thet umtah doilim akoiyun, muntheng asubohtauve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
For the children of Juda have wrought evil before me, says the Lord; they have set their abominations in the house on which my name is called, to defile it.
31 Amahon milim houna doi-phung tampi, Ben-Hinnom phaicham munsanglai Topheth mun’a chun, asemdoh uvin, hichea chun amahon achanuteu leh a chapateu jong govam din atohdoh jengun ahiuve. Ahin hitobang thil hoise bolna din keiman thupeh kabolpon, chuleh kalung gel’a jong kagelkhapoi.
And they have built the altar of Taphes, which is in the valley of the son of Ennom, to burn their sons and their daughters with fire; which I did not command them [to do], neither did I design it in my heart.
32 Hijeh chun heuvin, anikho chu ahunglhunge, tin Pakaiyin aseiye. Hiche munsanglai ho chu Topheth kititalou ding, chuleh Ben-Hinnom phaicham tiajong kihetalou ding, amavang kithagamna phaicham kitiding ahi. Amahon Topheth mun’a chu mithi avui avuidiu ahi, kivuina ding mun onglou hel’a mithi umding ahi.
Therefore, behold, the days come, says the Lord, when they shall no more say, The altar of Taphes, and the valley of the son of Ennom, but, The valley of the slain; and they shall bury in Taphes, for lack of room.
33 Chuteng kamite athiho tahsa chu vachate leh gamsate neh leh chah hiding, amaho gahoh jamding koima cha umlou ding ahitai.
And the dead bodies of this people shall be for food to the birds of the sky, and to the wild beasts of the earth; and there shall be none to drive [them] away.
34 Chutia chu, keiman Jerusalem khopi lailunga kipa golnop kithong gin kasuh tangding ahi. Chuleh Judah khopiho’a jong kicheng dinga um mou leh moulang ho kipa thanop agin jouse kijatalou ding ahi. Ijeh inem itileh, agamsung chu ahom keuva kijam ding ahitai.
And I will destroy out of the cities of Juda, and the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of them that make merry, and the voice of them that rejoice, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride; for the whole land shall become a desolation.
