< Jeremiah 34 >

1 The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, with all his army, all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem and against all its cities, saying:
Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar chu alengvaipohna gamho’a kon in asepai jouse toh ahung kon in, Jerusalem leh akimvel’a khopi ho douna gal asattai. Hichepet chun Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga hitin aseiye.
2 “Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, Yahweh says, “Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon and he will burn it with fire.
Zedekiah lengpa henga gachenlang hitin gaseiyin; “Pakai Israel Pathen chun aseiye, keiman hiche khopi hi Babylon lengpa khut a kapehdoh ahitai, chule aman meiya agovam ding ahi.
3 You won’t escape out of his hand, but will surely be taken and delivered into his hand. Your eyes will see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he will speak with you mouth to mouth. You will go to Babylon.”’
Chule nangjong ama-a kon’a najamdoh louhel ding, nakimandoh ding chuleh Babylon lengpa toh nakimaito teiding ahi. Chuteng Babylon gam’a sohchanga nakikaimang ding ahi.
4 “Yet hear Yahweh’s word, O Zedekiah king of Judah. Yahweh says concerning you, ‘You won’t die by the sword.
Amavang, vo Judah lengpa Zedekiah, Pakai thutep hi ngaiyin, Nangma galmun’a nathilou ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
5 You will die in peace; and with the burnings of your fathers, the former kings who were before you, so they will make a burning for you. They will lament you, saying, “Ah Lord!” for I have spoken the word,’ says Yahweh.”
Nangma lungmong tah a nathiding ahinai. Napu napate leng masaho kibolna banga mihon gimnamtwi ahin hal uva, nathilong a-op diu; Amaho chu nachung a lainatah’a kapdiu, ohe, ilengpau athitai, atidiu ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye, ati.
6 Then Jeremiah the prophet spoke all these words to Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,
Hichun Jeremiah themgao pan, Pakai thusei chu Zedekiah lengpa henga agaseitai.
7 when the king of Babylon’s army was fighting against Jerusalem and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish and against Azekah; for these alone remained of the cities of Judah as fortified cities.
Hichepet chun, Babylon lengpa sepaihon Jerusalem leh Judah gamsunga kulpi kikaikhuma kisuse nailou khopi Lachish leh Azekah teni jong chu ahindel khum un gal in asattauvin ahi.
8 The word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, after King Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people who were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty to them,
Chuin Zedekiah lengpan agamsung mipite toh kitepna khat asemdoh in; soh’a kivul ho jalen nading thu aphon doh jou chun, Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga hitin ahinseiyin ahi.
9 that every man should let his male servant, and every man his female servant, who is a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free, that no one should make bondservants of them, of a Jew his brother.
Aman amitakip henga thupeh aneiyin, Hebrew mi soh’a kivul jouse, numei hihen pasal hijongle, abon’a alha-ong diuvin thupeh aneiyin ahi. Koiman anammi Hebrew mi chu soh a aneithei louhel ding ahi, tin aseitai.
10 All the princes and all the people obeyed who had entered into the covenant, that everyone should let his male servant and everyone his female servant go free, that no one should make bondservants of them any more. They obeyed and let them go,
Chuin leng chapaten jong chule mipiten jong, abonchauvin lengpa thupeh chu ajuicheh uvin, asohteu chu abonchauvin achamlhat sah tauve.
11 but afterwards they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids whom they had let go free to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.
Ahin khonung in, amahon alung’u akhelkit uvin, alha-ongsau soh numeiho le pasal hochu, abon uvin anung mat kit uvin, soh in aneikittauve.
12 Therefore Yahweh’s word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
Hijeh chun Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga hitin aseitai.
13 “Yahweh, the God of Israel, says: ‘I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying:
Pakai Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye, Keiman napu napateu chu asohchannau Egypt gam’a kon’a kahuh doh chun, amaho toh kitepna khat kana semdoh in ahi.
14 At the end of seven years, every man of you shall release his brother who is a Hebrew, who has been sold to you, and has served you six years. You shall let him go free from you. But your fathers didn’t listen to me, and didn’t incline their ear.
Keiman napu napateu jah’a, kumgup nasoh uva pangsa Hebrew mi poupou, kumgup sehleh nalha-ong uva nachamlhat sah teitei diu ahi, kati. Ahivangin amahon kathusei ho ngai nahsah in aneipouve.
15 You had now turned, and had done that which is right in my eyes, in every man proclaiming liberty to his neighbor. You had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name;
Tunin nanghon kathupeh bangin lung naheiyun, Israel in nakom’a soh a umho lhadoh dingin nakinopto sohtauve. Nanghon keima houin sung laitah’a, ikihounau bangin kitepna khat nasemtauve.
16 but you turned and profaned my name, and every man caused his servant and every man his handmaid, whom you had let go free at their pleasure, to return. You brought them into subjection, to be to you for servants and for handmaids.’”
Ahinlah, nanghon lung nakhel kit un, nakitepnau nasukeh uvin, nalhadohsau soh numeiho leh soh pasal ho jouse, nanung mat kit uvin, nasoh uvin napansah kit uvin, kamin chu nasunoh tauvin ahi.
17 Therefore Yahweh says: “You have not listened to me, to proclaim liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbor. Behold, I proclaim to you a liberty,” says Yahweh, “to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine. I will make you be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth.
Hijeh chun Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Nanghon kathupehsa nanam chanpi ho soh’a kon’a nachamlhat sah diu ahi, kati chu najuitapouve. Keiman nangho gal a mangthah ding, kelthoh a genthei ding chule natlesat thigam dinga kalha-ong diu nahitauve. Chutahle vannoiya namtin vaipin natijat pi uva nakidah diu ahi.
18 I will give the men who have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me when they cut the calf in two and passed between its parts:
Nanghon ikitepnau nasukehtauve. Nanghon nakihahsel uva bongnou nahapsat uva, akah’a nakijot bang uva chu, keiman nangho kahapsat ding nahiuve.
19 the princes of Judah, the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, the priests, and all the people of the land, who passed between the parts of the calf.
Keiman nangho kasattel diu, vaipo ho, thempuho chule mipite jouse, bongnou kisattel banga kasattel diu ahi. ajeh chu nanghon nakitepnau nasukehtauve.
20 I will even give them into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of those who seek their life. Their dead bodies will be food for the birds of the sky and for the animals of the earth.
Keiman nanghon namelmateu khut a kapehdoh u nahitai. Amahon namat uva nathadiu, chule natahsa uchu gamsaho leh vachaten anehdiu ahi.
21 “I will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes into the hands of their enemies, into the hands of those who seek their life and into the hands of the king of Babylon’s army, who has gone away from you.
Keiman Judah lengpa Zedekiah leh avaipote abonchauva, nanghoa kon’a kinungtolsa Babylon lengpa khut a kapehdoh ding ahi.
22 Behold, I will command,” says Yahweh, “and cause them to return to this city. They will fight against it, take it, and burn it with fire. I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.”
Keiman Babylon sepaite kalekou kit ding; Amahon hiche khopihi ahin delkhum diu, meiya ahalvam diu ahi. Hitia chu Judah gamsung khopi jouse kasuhmang ding, chule beihel a ahomkeova kakoi ding ahi, ati.
