< Jeremiah 33 >

1 Moreover the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still locked up in the court of the guard, saying,
Jeremiah thongim thung paung o naah, Angraeng ih lok anih khaeah angzoh let;
2 “The LORD who does it, the LORD who forms it to establish it—the LORD is his name, says:
long sahkung Angraeng, Angraeng mah ni hmuen boih to sak moe, caksak; anih ih ahmin loe Angraeng, tiah oh.
3 ‘Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and difficult things, which you do not know.’
Na kawk oh, kang pathim o han; na panoek o ai ih, kalen parai hmuennawk to kang thuih o han, tiah a thuih.
4 For the LORD, the God of Israel, says concerning the houses of this city and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down to make a defense against the mounds and against the sword:
Israel Sithaw, Angraeng mah, misa pakaahaih ahmuen, sumsen hoiah kamro hae vangpui thung ih im hoi Judah siangpahrang ih im kawng pongah hae tiah thuih;
5 ‘While men come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have killed in my anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hidden my face from this city,
Khaldian kaminawk loe misatuk hanah angzoh o, toe hae ahmuen loe palung ka phuihaih, kanung parai palungphuihaih hoiah ka hum ih kami qok hoiah ni koi tih; Jerusalem kaminawk mah sak o ih sethaihnawk pongah hae vangpui hoiah mikhmai ka hawk ving boeh.
6 behold, I will bring it health and healing, and I will cure them; and I will reveal to them abundance of peace and truth.
Khenah, to tiah oh pacoengah nganprakhaih hoi ngantuihaih to kang sin han; nihcae to ngan ka tuisak moe, monghaih hoi loktang to kam tuengsak han.
7 I will restore the fortunes of Judah and Israel, and will build them as at the first.
Judah hoi Israel loe misong ohhaih thung hoiah kam laemsak moe, nihcae to tangsuek nathuem ih baktih toengah ka ohsak let han.
8 I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against me. I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned against me and by which they have transgressed against me.
Ka nuiah a sak o ih zaehaihnawk to ka ciimsak boih han; kai misa ah ang suek o haih, zaehaihnawk to ka tahmen pae boih han boeh.
9 This city will be to me for a name of joy, for praise, and for glory, before all the nations of the earth, which will hear all the good that I do to them, and will fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I provide to it.’”
To naah hae vangpui loe kang hoehaih, long kaminawk boih hmaa ah pakoehhaih hoi saphawhaih ah om ueloe, hae vangpui han ka sak ih hoihaihnawk boih to panoek o tih boeh; hae vangpui ah ka sak ih hoihaih hoi khosak hoihaihnawk boih pongah, kaminawk mah zithaih hoi tasoehhaih doeh tawn o tih.
10 The LORD says: “Yet again there will be heard in this place, about which you say, ‘It is waste, without man and without animal, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without animal,’
Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih: Nangcae mah, hae ahmuen loe pongsut boeh, kami hoi taw ih moi doeh om ai boeh, tiah na thuih o. Toe kami om ai, moi doeh om ai; Judah vangnawk loe angqai krang boeh, tiah na thuih o ih ahmuen hoi Jerusalem loklamnawk ah,
11 the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say, ‘Give thanks to the LORD of Armies, for the LORD is good, for his loving kindness endures forever;’ who bring thanksgiving into the LORD’s house. For I will cause the captivity of the land to be reversed as at the first,” says the LORD.
anghoehaih lok, oephaih lok, zu la kami hoi sava sah kaminawk ih lok thaih lethaih to om tih. Angraeng loe hoih, a palungnathaih loe zungzan khoek to cak poe pongah, misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng to saphaw oh, tiah thui kaminawk ih lok, Angraeng im ah pakoehhaih hoi angbawnhaih sah kaminawk ih lok to thaih o let tih; misong ah kalaem prae kaminawk to tangsuek ih baktiah ka ohsak let han, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
12 The LORD of Armies says: “Yet again there will be in this place, which is waste, without man and without animal, and in all its cities, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
Misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw mah, Kami om ai, moi kasan doeh om ai ah kapong sut, hae ahmuen hoi vangpuinawk boih loe tuu toep kaminawk mah angmacae ih tuu pacahhaih ahmuen ah om let tih.
13 In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, in the cities of the South, in the land of Benjamin, in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks will again pass under the hands of him who counts them,” says the LORD.
Mae nui ih vangpui, azawn ih vangpui, aloih bang ih vangpui, Benjamin prae, Jerusalem taeng ih ahmuen, Judah vangpuinawk ah tuu toep kaminawk mah tuu pacah o let tih, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
14 “Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
Khenah, Israel hoi Judah imthung takoh khaeah, kahoih hmuen sak hanah lokkam ih baktiah koephaih ni to om tih.
15 “In those days and at that time, I will cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up to David. He will execute justice and righteousness in the land.
To ni hoi atue naah loe David thung hoiah toenghaih tanghang to ka tacawtsak han; anih loe toenghaih hoi kamsoem ah lokcaek tih.
16 In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell safely. This is the name by which she will be called: The LORD our righteousness.”
To na niah Judah to pahlong ueloe, Jerusalem loe kamongah om tih boeh; anih ih ahmin loe aicae toenghaih Angraeng, tiah kawk o tih.
17 For the LORD says: “David will never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel.
Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; Israel imthung takoh ih angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnu han koi David ih atii loe boeng thai mak ai;
18 The Levitical priests will not lack a man before me to offer burnt offerings, to burn meal offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.”
ka hmaa ah hmai angbawnhaih kasah, angbawnhaih moi hmai pakhaem, Levi acaeng qaimanawk doeh, boeng thai ai angbawnhaih to sak hanah kami vawt o sut mak ai, tiah a thuih.
19 The LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
Angraeng ih lok Jeremiah khaeah angzoh moe,
20 “The LORD says: ‘If you can break my covenant of the day and my covenant of the night, so that there will not be day and night in their time,
Angraeng mah, Ka suek ih khodai lokmaihaih hoi khoving lokmaihaih to na phraek o thaih moe, angmah ih atue ah khodai hoi khoving om ai naah ni,
21 then my covenant could also be broken with David my servant, that he will not have a son to reign on his throne; and with the Levitical priests, my ministers.
Ka tamna David hoi ka sak ih lokmaihaih to amro ueloe, David ih angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnu han koi David ih caa doeh om mak ai.
22 As the army of the sky cannot be counted, and the sand of the sea cannot be measured, so I will multiply the offspring of David my servant and the Levites who minister to me.’”
Van ih cakaehnawk loe kroek laek ai moe, tuipui ih savuet doeh tah laek thai ai baktih toengah, ka tamna David ih atii hoi ka hmaa ah toksah Levi kaminawk to kang pungsak han, tiah thuih.
23 The LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
Angraeng ih lok Jeremiah khaeah angzoh,
24 “Do not consider what this people has spoken, saying, ‘Has the LORD cast off the two families which he chose?’ Thus they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.”
Angraeng mah qoih ih imthong hnetto loe vah ving boeh, tiah prae kalah kaminawk mah thuih o ih lok to na thaih maw? Nihcae mah kai ih acaengnawk to acaeng kami ai baktiah khet patoek o boeh.
25 The LORD says: “If my covenant of day and night fails, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth,
Angraeng mah, Jeremiah Kai loe khodai hoi khoving hanah lok ka maihaih to ka phrae ai, van hoi long mah lok tahngai hanah ukhaih dan doeh ka caksak.
26 then I will also cast away the offspring of Jacob, and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his offspring to be rulers over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to be reversed and will have mercy on them.”
To pongah Abraham, Issac hoi Jacob ih caanawk to ka va ving mak ai; Jacob ih caa hoi ka tamna David ih caanawk loe nihcae ukkung siangpahrang ah om o poe tih, tiah lok ka maihaih doeh ka phrae mak ai; nihcae to misong hoi kam laemsak let han, nihcae nuiah tahmenhaih ka tawnh han boeh, tiah a thuih.
