1The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of it, saying:
1 Waato kaŋ Babila bonkoono Nebukadnezzar da nga wongu marga kulu, da ndunnya mayrayey kulu kaŋ yaŋ go a koytara cire, da ndunnya dumey kulu na Urusalima d'a galley kulu wongu, sanno wo fun Rabbi do ka kaa Irimiya do. A ne:
1The word which came unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities thereof, saying:
2Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, Thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire:
2 Mate kaŋ Rabbi, Israyla Irikoyo ci neeya: Ma koy ka salaŋ Yahuda bonkoono Zedeciya se. Ma ci a se ka ne: Yaa no Rabbi ci: A go, ay ga gallo wo daŋ Babila bonkoono kambe ra, a g'a ton da danji mo.
2Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, Thus saith Jehovah, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire:
3and you shall not escape out of his hand, but shall surely be taken, and delivered into his hand; and your eyes shall see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he shall speak with you mouth to mouth, and you shall go to Babylon.
3 Ni si du ka yana ka fun a kambe ra mo, amma daahir i ga ni di, i ma ni daŋ a kambe ra. Ni ga di Babila bonkoono mo-da-mo, a ga salaŋ ni se mo me-da-me. Ni ga koy Babila mo.
3and thou shalt not escape out of his hand, but shalt surely be taken, and delivered into his hand; and thine eyes shall behold the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he shall speak with thee mouth to mouth, and thou shalt go to Babylon.
4Yet hear the word of Yahweh, O Zedekiah king of Judah: thus says Yahweh concerning you, You shall not die by the sword;
4 Kulu nda yaadin, ni ma maa Rabbi sanno, ya nin Yahuda bonkoono Zedeciya. Haŋ kaŋ Rabbi ci ni boŋ neeya: Takuba si ni wi,
4Yet hear the word of Jehovah, O Zedekiah king of Judah: thus saith Jehovah concerning thee, Thou shalt not die by the sword;
5you shall die in peace; and with the burnings of your fathers, the former kings who were before you, so shall they make a burning for you; and they shall lament you, saying, Ah Lord! for I have spoken the word, says Yahweh.
5 laakal kanay ra no ni ga bu. Sanda mate kaŋ cine i na dugu ton ni kaayey se, bonkooney kaŋ yaŋ na ni jin din, yaadin cine no i ga dugu ton ni mo se. I ga bu baray te ni se mo ka ne: «Kaari, ya jine bora!» zama ay, Rabbi no ka sanno din ci.
5thou shalt die in peace; and with the burnings of thy fathers, the former kings that were before thee, so shall they make a burning for thee; and they shall lament thee, [saying], Ah Lord! for I have spoken the word, saith Jehovah.
6Then Jeremiah the prophet spoke all these words to Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,
6 Kala annabi Irimiya na sanney wo kulu ci Yahuda bonkoono Zedeciya se Urusalima ra.
6Then Jeremiah the prophet spake all these words unto Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,
7when 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.
7 Alwaato din ra Babila bonkoono wongu marga goono ga wongu nda Urusalima, da Yahuda galley kulu kaŋ yaŋ cindi, kaŋ yaŋ ga ti Lacis da Azeka. Zama ngey hinne no ka cindi Yahuda galley kulu ra galley kaŋ yaŋ gonda cinari beeri yaŋ wongu se.
7when 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.
8The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, after that the king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people who were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty to them;
8 Sanno kaŋ fun Rabbi do ka kaa Irimiya do neeya, waato kaŋ Bonkoono Zedeciya na sanka sambu da borey kulu kaŋ yaŋ go Urusalima ra. A na burcinitaray fe i se ka ne:
8The word that came unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, after that the king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people that were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty unto them;
9that every man should let his male servant, and every man his female servant, who is a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free; that none should make bondservants of them, of a Jew his brother.
9 «Boro kulu ma nga bannya wala nga koŋŋa taŋ, da Ibraniyance no, alboro wala wayboro. Boro fo ma si ye ka boro fo daŋ tamtaray koyne, d'a nya-ize Yahudance no.»
9that every man should let his man-servant, and every man his maid-servant, that is a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free; that none should make bondmen of them, [to wit], of a Jew his brother.
10All 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 none should make bondservants of them any more; they obeyed, and let them go:
10 Mayraykoyey da jama kulu binde na sanno gana, ngey kaŋ yaŋ na sanka sambu, kaŋ i ne boro kulu ma nga bannya da nga koŋŋa taŋ, boro kulu ma si ye ka boro fo daŋ tamtaray koyne. I na sanno gana, k'i taŋ mo.
10And all the princes and all the people obeyed, that had entered into the covenant, that every one should let his man-servant, and every one his maid-servant, go free, that none should make bondmen of them any more; they obeyed, and let them go:
11but 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.
11 Amma kokor banda i ye ka bare ka tam alborey da wayborey kaŋ yaŋ i taŋ din di koyne, i ma ye ka kaa. I n'i tilasandi k'i ciya bannya da koŋŋo yaŋ koyne.
11but 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.
12Therefore the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
12 Woodin se no Rabbi sanno fun a do ka kaa Irimiya do ka ne:
12Therefore the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
13Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel: I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying,
13 Yaa no Rabbi, Israyla Irikoyo ci: Ay na sappe te d'araŋ kaayey hano kaŋ hane ay n'i fattandi Misira laabo ra, tamtaray windo ra. Ay ne:
13Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying,
14At the end of seven years you shall let go every man 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, neither inclined their ear.
14 Jiiri iyye tooyaŋ banda boro kulu ma nga nya-ize tam kaŋ Ibraniyance no taŋ, nga kaŋ i neera ni se, a may ni se mo jiiri iddu. Ni m'a taŋ a ma fun ni kambe ra. Amma araŋ kaayey mana hangan ay se, i mana hanga jeeri ka maa ay se mo.
14At the end of seven years ye shall let go every man his brother that is a Hebrew, that hath been sold unto thee, and hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee: but your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined their ear.
15You had now turned, and had done that which is right in my eyes, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbor; and you had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name:
15 Amma araŋ wo, araŋ tuubi sohõ, hala mo araŋ na haŋ kaŋ ga saba te ay jine, za kaŋ boro kulu na burcinitaray fe nga gorokasin se. Araŋ na sanka sambu mo ay jine windo kaŋ i g'a ce d'a ay maa din ra.
15And ye were now turned, and had done that which is right in mine eyes, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbor; and ye had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name:
16but you turned and profaned my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom you had let go free at their pleasure, to return; and you brought them into subjection, to be to you for servants and for handmaids.
16 Amma kokor banda araŋ ye ka bare. Araŋ n'ay maa ziibandi, araŋ afo kulu. Araŋ ye ka kande bannyey da koŋŋey kaŋ yaŋ araŋ taŋ i ma du ngey boŋ. Araŋ n'i tilasandi i ma ciya araŋ se bannya da koŋŋa yaŋ.
16but ye turned and profaned my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom ye had let go free at their pleasure, to return; and ye brought them into subjection, to be unto you for servants and for handmaids.
17Therefore thus says Yahweh: 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; and I will make you to be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth.
17 Woodin sabbay se binde, yaa no Rabbi ci: Araŋ mana hangan ay se hal araŋ ma burcinitaray fe, boro fo kulu nga nya-izo se, boro fo kulu mo nga gorokasin se. A go mo, ay na burcinitaray fe araŋ se -- ay n'araŋ taŋ takuba nda balaaw nda haray se, yaa no Rabbi ci. Ay g'araŋ ciya humburandiyaŋ hari ndunnya mayrayey kulu ra.
17Therefore thus saith Jehovah: ye have not hearkened unto me, to proclaim liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbor: behold, I proclaim unto you a liberty, saith Jehovah, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be tossed to and fro among all the kingdoms of the earth.
18I 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;
18 Borey binde n'ay sappa tunandi, i siino ga sanka kaŋ i sambu ay jine din sanno toonandi, waato kaŋ i na handayzo farsi bindi ka bisa a dumbari hinka game ra.
18And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, that have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me, when they cut the calf in twain and passed between the parts thereof;
19the princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, who passed between the parts of the calf;
19 Ngey, Yahuda mayraykoyey da Urusalima koyey, da faadancey, da alfagey, da laabo borey kulu, i bisa handayzo din farsimey game ra.
19the princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, that passed between the parts of the calf;
20I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life; and their dead bodies shall be for food to the birds of the sky, and to the animals of the earth.
20 To, ay g'i daŋ ngey ibarey kambe ra, da borey kaŋ g'i fundey ceeci yaŋ kambe ra. I buukoy ga ciya beene curey da ganji hamey se ŋwaari.
20I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life; and their dead bodies shall be for food unto the birds of the heavens, and to the beasts of the earth.
21Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon’s army, who have gone away from you.
21 Yahuda bonkoono Zedeciya da nga mayraykoyey ciine mo, ay g'i daŋ ngey ibarey kambe ra, d'i fundey ceecikoy kambe ra, da Babila bonkoono wongu marga kambe ra mo, wo kaŋ jin ka tun araŋ do.
21And Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, that are gone away from you.
22Behold, I will command, says Yahweh, and cause them to return to this city; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire: and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.
22 Yaa no Rabbi ci: Guna, ay g'i lordi, ay ma ye ka kand'ey gallo wo do. I ga wongu nd'a, i m'a ŋwa, i m'a ton da danji. Ay ga Yahuda galley ciya kurmuyaŋ, kaŋ sinda goroko.
22Behold, I will command, saith Jehovah, and cause them to return to this city; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire: and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.
