Yelemaia 14
1 Hina Gode da esoi bagade ea hou olelema: ne, nama amane sia: i,
This is a message from the Lord that came to Jeremiah regarding the drought:
2 “Yuda soge da da: i dioiwane didigia: su. Ea moilai bai bagade huluane da bogogia: lala. Ea fi dunu huluane da da: i dione, osoboga dia dafia: sa. Amola Yelusaleme da enoga fidima: ne wele sia: nana.
Judah is in mourning; her towns are wasting away. Her people are weeping for the land, and a cry for help comes from Jerusalem.
3 Bagade gagui dunu da ilia hawa: hamosu dunu hano dima: ne asunasisa. Ilia da hano si amoga asili, hano hame dialebe ba: sa. Ilia hano nasu ganagu hano hamedei hagiwane bu gaguli maha. Ilia da: i dioiwane amola gagoudanu, gogosiane ilia odagi dedebole, buhagisa.
Rich people send their servants to get water. They go to the cisterns, but don't find any water. They return with empty jars, disappointed and ashamed, covering their heads.
4 Gibu da hame sa: iba: le, amola osobo huluane da hafoga: iba: le, ifabi ouligisu dunu da baligili da: i dione heawisa. Ilia amola odagi dedebosa.
The ground has dried up because there hasn't been any rain in the land. The farmers are ashamed; they cover their heads.
5 Sogega, “dia” ohe ame da ea gaheabolo lalelegei mano amo fisiagasa. Bai gisi hame galebeba: le.
Even the deer abandons her newborn fawn because there's no grass.
6 Sigua ‘dougi’ da agolo da: iya lela. Ilia sigua wa: me defele ha: ha: sa. Ilia da ha: i manu hameba: le, ilia si da wadela: sa.
Wild donkeys stand on the bare hills, panting like jackals. Their eyesight fails because they have nothing to eat.
7 Na fi dunu da Nama amane wele sia: sa, ‘Dafawane! Ninia wadela: i hou da ninima diwane udidisa. Be Hina Gode! Dia musa: ilegele sia: i defele, nini fidima! Ninia da eso bagohame Di baligi fa: sea, wadela: le hamoi ba: sa.
Even though our sins give evidence against us, Lord, please do something for us because of your good nature. Yes, we have rebelled against you so often; we have sinned against you.
8 Be Di fawane da Isala: ili fi gaga: musa: dawa: Di fawane da nini mae wadela: lesima: ne, gaga: musa: dawa: Di da abuliba: le ga fi dunu amo da gasi afadafa fawane ninia soge ganodini esalebe, agoane ba: sala: ?
You are the hope of Israel, our Savior in times of trouble. Why do you act like a foreigner in our country, like a traveler who only stays a night?
9 Di da abuliba: le, dunu da fofogadigibi agoane ba: sala: ? Abuliba: le, gasa hame dadi gagui nini fidimusa: hame dawa: agoane ba: sala: ? Hina Gode! Di da dafawane ninimagale esala! Ninia da Dia fi dunu! Nini mae yolesima!’”
Why do you act like someone caught unawares, like a powerful warrior who can't help? You are here among us, Lord, and we are known as your people. Please don't give up on us!
10 Hina Gode da Ea fi dunu ilia hou olelema: ne, amane sia: sa, “Ilia da Na fisimusa: hobeamu hanai gala. Ilia da ilia hou amoma hina esaloma: ne hame dawa: Amaiba: le, Na da ilima hahawane hame. Na da ilia wadela: i hou bu dawa: mu amola amoba: le, se ilima imunu.”
This is what the Lord says about his people: They really love to wander away from me—they don't even try to stop themselves. So the Lord refuses to accept them. Now he'll remember their guilty actions and punish them for their sins.
11 Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i, “Amo dunu fidima: ne, Nama mae adole ba: ma!
The Lord told me, Don't pray for the welfare of this people.
12 Ilia da ha: i mae nawane sia: ne gadosea, Na da ili fidima: ne wele sia: su hame nabimu. Amola ilia da Nama ohe gobele salasu amola gagoma iasu iasea, Na da ili hahawane hame ba: mu. Be amo mae dawa: le, Na da gegesu amola ha: naba amola olo ilima iasili, ili medole lelegemu.”
Even if they fast, I won't listen to their cry. Even though they offer burnt offerings and grain offerings, I won't accept them. On the contrary I will wipe them out by sword and famine and plague.
13 Amalalu, na da amane sia: i, “Ouligisudafa Hina Gode! Di dawa: ! Balofede dunu da Dia fi dunu da ha: i bagade amola gegesu hame ba: mu, amo ilima agoane sia: sa. Bai Di da sia: i dagoi, olofosu fawane da Dia soge amo ganodini ba: mu, ilia sia: sa.”
“Oh Lord God!” I answered, “Look what prophets are telling them, claiming to be speaking for you: ‘You won't see war or suffer from famine, but I will give you peace that lasts here in this place.’”
14 Be Hina Gode da nama bu adole i, “Amo balofede dunu da Na Dioba: le ogogosa. Na da ili hame asunasi amola ilia da Na sia: alofele olelema: ne, Na da hamedafa sia: i. Ilia esala ba: su olelebe amo da Nama hame misi. Ilia ba: la: lusu liligi da hamedei liligi amo ilisu ilia asigi dawa: su ganodini hamoi.
The prophets are prophesying lies in my name, replied the Lord. I didn't send them or choose them or speak to them. It's a lying vision, an empty prediction, a deluded, deceitful product of their own minds that they are prophesying to you.
15 Na, Hina Gode, da dima olelemu. Amo balofede dunu (amo Na da hame asunasi, be ilia da Na Dioba: le gegesu amola ha: i bagade da hame misunu ogogole sia: sa) Na da ili gegesu amola ha: i bagade amoga medole legemu.
So this is what the Lord says about such prophets who prophesy in my name: I didn't send them, but even so they say, “This country won't suffer war or famine.” These same prophets will die from war or famine!
16 Dunu amoma ilia amo liligi ogogole sia: i, ilia amola da gegesu amola ha: i bagade amoga medole legei ba: mu. Ilia bogoi da: i hodo da Yelusaleme logoga ha: digi dagoi ba: mu, amola amo uli dogoma: ne, dunu afae da hame ba: mu. Amo hou da ili huluanema doaga: mu. Amoga ilia uda amola dunu mano amola uda mano, huluane medole legei dagoi ba: mu. Ilia wadela: i hou hamoiba: le, dabe lamu.”
The bodies of the people they prophesied to will be thrown into the streets of Jerusalem because of famine and war. There won't be anyone to bury them or their wives, their sons or their daughters. I will pour out their own evil on them.
17 Hina Gode da na da Ea fi dunu ilima na da: i dioi ilima olelema: ne sia: i. Ea sia: beba: le, na da ilima amane sia: i, “Haga amola gasia amola na si hano da gudu sa: imu da defea. Na dibi da hamedafa dagomu. Bai na fi dunu da oso dogone fa: ginisi amola se bagade naba.
This is what you are to tell them: Tears flow from my eyes without stopping day or night, because my people have been crushed by a heavy blow, a really serious wound.
18 Na da moifufu amoga ahoasea, na da dunu gegesu ganodini medole legei ilia bogoi da: i hodo ba: sa. Na da moilai gagagai amo ganodini ahoasea, na da dunu ha: ga bogogia: lalebe ba: sa. Balofede amola gobele salasu dunu amola da mugululi, soge amo ilia hame dawa: soge amoga afugili asi.”
If I go out to the countryside, I see those killed by the sword; if I go into the city, I see those dying by famine. Both prophets and priests wander around the country—they don't know what they're doing.
19 Hina Gode! Di da dafawanedafa Yuda fi fisiagabela: ? Di da Saione dunu higasala: ? Di da abuliba: le nini mae uhima: ne ninima se bagadedafa ibala: ? Ninia da olofosu hogoi helei, be hahawane hou da hame doaga: i. Ninia da uhinisisu hogoi helei, be beda: su bagade fawane ba: i.
Have you really rejected Judah? Do you hate Zion so much? Why have you wounded us so badly that we can't be healed? We hoped for peace, but instead nothing good has come; we hoped for a time of healing, but instead there was only sudden terror.
20 Hina Gode! Ninia da dima wadela: le bagade hamoi. Ninia wadela: i hou amola ninia aowalalia ilia wadela: i hou, amo ninia Dima fofada: nana.
Lord, we admit our wickedness, the guilt of our forefathers as well as our own sins against you.
21 Dia hahawane ninima imunu sia: i ilegesu amo bu dawa: ma! Dia nini mae higama! Yelusaleme da Dia hadigi fisu ea sogebi. Amaiba: le, Yelusaleme da gogosiasa: besa: le, gaga: ma. Dia gousa: su ninima hamoi amo mae fima.
Because of your own reputation please don't hate us; don't bring dishonor on your glorious throne. Please remember your agreement with us; don't break it.
22 Fifi asi gala ilia loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ da gibu iasimu hame dawa: Mu hisu da gibu hamomu hame dawa: Ninia Hina Gode! Di fawane da amo hamomusa: dawa: Amaiba: le, ninia dafawaneyale esaloma: beyale dawa: lusu da Di fawane.
Can the false gods of the other nations bring rain? Can the skies themselves send showers? No, it's you, Lord our God. So we put our hope in you, because only you can do all this.
