Jeremiah 24
1 The LORD showed me, and, behold, two baskets of figs were set before the temple of the LORD, after that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, and the princes of Judah, with the carpenters and smiths, from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.
Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh Judah manghai Jehoiakim capa Jekoniah neh Judah mangpa rhoek te a poelyoe tih Jerusalem lamkah kutthai neh thidae te Babylon la a khuen phoeiah BOEIPA bawkim hmai kah voh rhoi dongah thaibu thaih a khueh te BOEIPA loh kai tarha n'tueng.
2 One basket had very good figs, even like the figs that are first ripe: and the other basket had very naughty figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.
Voh khat dongkah thaibu thaih tah thaibu thaihloe bangla bahoeng then. Voh pakhat dongkah thaibu thaih tah a thaenah khui lamloh caak pawt ham hil bahoeng thae.
3 Then said the LORD unto me, What see you, Jeremiah? And I said, Figs; the good figs, very good; and the evil, very evil, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil.
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Jeremiah balae na hmuh,” a ti. Te dongah, “Thaibu thaibu rhoe mah aka then tah bahoeng then tih aka thae tah a thae uet ah a thaenah lamloh caak la lo pawh,” ka ti tah.
4 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Te vaengah BOEIPA ol tah kai taengah ha pawk tih,
5 Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel; Like these good figs, so will I acknowledge them that are carried away captive of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans for their good.
“He tah Israel Pathen BOEIPA long ni a thui. He kah thaibu then bangla Judah hlangsol te ka hmat van. Te khaw he hmuen lamloh Khalden khohmuen ah a then lam ni ka tueih.
6 For I will set mine eyes upon them for good, and I will bring them again to this land: and I will build them, and not pull them down; and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.
Ka mik he amih soah a then la ka khueh vetih amih te he khohmuen la ka mael sak ni. Amih te ka thoh vetih ka koengloeng mahpawh. Amih te ka phung vetih ka phuk mahpawh.
7 And I will give them an heart to know me, that I am the LORD: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God: for they shall return unto me with their whole heart.
Kai kamah he BOEIPA ni tila ming sak ham lungbuei te amih taengah ka paek ni. Te vaengah kamah kah pilnam la om uh vetih kai khaw amih kah Pathen la ka om van ni. A lungbuei boeih neh kai taengla ha mael uh mak atah,” a ti.
8 And as the evil figs, which cannot be eaten, they are so evil; surely thus says the LORD, So will I give Zedekiah the king of Judah, and his princes, and the residue of Jerusalem, that remain in this land, and them that dwell in the land of Egypt:
Tedae thaibu aka thae bangla a thaenah lamloh a caak thai pawt te BOEIPA loh, “Judah manghai Zedekiah neh a mangpa rhoek taengah khaw, he khohmuen ah aka sueng Jerusalem kah a meet rhoek taengah khaw, Egypt kho kah khosa rhoek taengah khaw ka khueh van ni.
9 And I will deliver them to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth for their hurt, to be a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places where I shall drive them.
Amih te tonganah neh ngaihuetnah la, yoethaenah la ka khueh vetih diklai ram tom taengah kokhahnah la, thuidoeknah la thuinuetnah la, rhunkhuennah la ka khueh vetih amih tah hmuen takuem ah te ka heh ni.
10 And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, among them, till they be consumed from off the land that I gave unto them and to their fathers.
Amamih taeng neh a napa rhoek taengah ka paek khohmuen dong lamloh a cing uh duela amih taengah cunghang, khokha neh duektahaw te ka tueih pah ni.
