1 Hina Gode da Ba: bilone moilai bai bagade fi ilima Ea sia: ne iasu ilegei amo nama amane olelei,
This is the Lord's message that he told Jeremiah the prophet to give about Babylon and the country of Babylonia.
2 “Fifi asi gala ilima olelema! Ha: giwane sisia: ma! Dawa: digima: ne hahamosu olelelalu, sisia: ma! Amo sia: mae wamolegema! Ba: bilone da dafai dagoi! Ea ogogosu ‘gode’ Madage da goudane sali! Ba: bilone loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ da gogosiasu lai dagoi! Ea wadela: idafa loboga hamoi ‘gode’ huluane da goudai dagoi!
Tell everyone the news! Hold up a sign and shout it out, don't hold back! Tell them, Babylon has fallen! Her god Bel is humiliated; the power of her god Marduk is broken; all Babylon's idols are humiliated and their power is broken.
3 Gagoe (north) esalebe fi da Ba: bilone fi ilima doagala: musa: amola hafoga: i soge defele hamoma: ne wadela: musa: , misi dagoi. Dunu amola ohe da hobeamu, amola dunu da amogawi bu hame esalebe ba: mu.”
A northern nation will come and attack her and turn the country into a wasteland. No one will live there—both people and animals will desert it.
4 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Amo eso doaga: sea, Isala: ili fi dunu amola Yuda fi dunu da gilisili, diginiwane, Na, ilia Gode, amo bu hogomusa: misunu.
That's the time when the people of Israel and Judah will join together, weeping as they go to worship the Lord their God, declares the Lord.
5 Ilia da Saione Goumi amoga ahoasu logo Nama adole ba: mu. Amola ilia da amo logoga masunu. Ilia da eso huluane dialoma: ne Gousa: su Nama hamomu, amola ilia da amo hamedafa fimu.
They will ask the way to Zion, and start going in that direction. They will arrive and commit themselves to the Lord in an everlasting agreement that won't ever be forgotten.
6 Na fi dunu da sibi amo ilia ouligisu dunu da noga: le hame ouligibiba: le, goumia fisi dagoi agoane ba: sa. Ilia da sibi agoane, goumi afae yolesili, eno goumia ahoasu, agoane asili, ilia da ilia sogebidafa amo gogolei dagoi.
My people are sheep that are lost, led astray by their shepherds, making them wander aimlessly in the mountains. They go from place to place in the mountains and hills, forgetting where they used to rest.
7 Nowa da ili ba: sea da ilima doagala: sa. Ilia ha lai da amane sia: sa, ‘Ilia da ilia Hina Godema wadela: le hamoi dagoi. Amaiba: le, ninia da ilima doagala: mu da defea, wadela: i hame. Ilia aowa fi da Hina Gode Ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: i. Ilia amola da mae yolesili, Ema fa: no bobogemu da defea galu.’
All those who came across them attacked them. Their enemies declared, “We're not to blame! They're the ones who sinned against the Lord, their true resting place; the Lord who was the hope of their forefathers.”
8 Isala: ili fi dunu! Ba: bilone soge yolesili, hobeama! Dilia degabo amo soge yolesima!
Run away from the city of Babylon; get away from the country of Babylonia! Lead the way like the male goats that lead the flock.
9 Na da gagoe (north) esalebe fi gilisisu ilima sia: beba: le, ilia da Ba: bilone amoga doagala: musa: misunu. Ilia da gegemusa: dadalele, Ba: bilone fi ilima doagala: le, hasalimu. Ilia da benea ahoasu dunu noga: idafa. Ilia dadiga gala: sea, giadofamu hame dawa:
Look! I'm assembling a coalition of strong northern nations who will come and attack Babylon. They will line up in battle against her; she will be conquered from the north. Their arrows will be like the best warriors—they don't miss!
10 Ilia da Ba: bilone fi ilia liligi huluane gesowale lamu. Ilia hanai liligi ilia da udigili lamu. Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.”
Babylonia will be plundered—everyone who plunders her will have plenty of loot, declares the Lord.
11 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Ba: bilone fi dunu! Dilia da Na fi dunu ilima doagala: le, ilia liligi huluane gesowale lai dagoi. Dilia da hahawane ahoa. Fedege agoane, dilia da bulamagau amo gagoma ha: i manu lamusa: ososa: gisa o hosi amo da gogona: ahoabe, agoane ba: sa.
Though for now you Babylonians celebrate and sing triumphantly as you plunder my special people, though for now you jump around like a frisky young cow treading out the grain, and neigh like stallions,
12 Be dilia moilai bai bagade (Ba: bilone) da dafane gogosia: i dagoi ba: mu. Amola Ba: bilone fi da fifi asi gala amo ganodini gududafa dialebe ba: mu. Ba: bilone soge da wadela: i hafoga: i soge hamoi dagoi ba: mu.
you are going to bring shame on your mother, you are going to disgrace the one who gave birth to you. Watch as she becomes the least important of all the nations, a wilderness, a dry desert land.
13 Bai Na da ougi bagadeba: le, dunu afae Ba: bilone soge ganodini esalebe da hame ba: mu. Ba: bilone da mugului dagoi dialebe ba: mu, amola nowa dunu da amo soge baligimusa: ahoasea, da bagadewane fofogadigimu.
Because of Lord's angry punishment, she will be deserted, completely desolate. Everyone who passes by will be horrified at what has happened to Babylon, and sneer at all her wounds.
14 Dilia dadi gagui dunu! Ba: bilone amoma doagala: musa: dadalema! E eale sisiga: ma! Dilia dadi huluane amoga, e gala: ma! Bai Ba: bilone fi da Na, Hina Gode, Nama wadela: le hamoi.
All you archers, line up ready for battle around Babylon. Shoot at her! Don't save your arrows, because she has sinned against the Lord.
15 Moilai bai bagade amo eale sisiga: le, gegemusa: halama! Wali Ba: bilone da fama: ne olei dagoi! Ea gagoi dobea da fili, mugului dagoi ba: sa. Na da Ba: bilone fi ilima dabe iaha. Amaiba: le, ha lai dunu! Ilima dabe ima! Ilia da eno dunuma hamoi, amo defele, ilima dabe bu ima.
Shout war-cries against her from every side! She holds up her hands in surrender. Her towers have collapsed; her walls are demolished. This is the Lord paying her back, so you too can pay her back—do the same to her as she did to others.
16 Amo soge ganodini, ha: i manu bugima: ne amola faima: ne logo mae doasima! Ga fi dunu Ba: bilone soge ganodini esala, ilia da dadi gagui wa: i Ba: bilone fi ilima doagala: musa: manebe, ilima beda: iba: le, hi sogega bu masunu.”
Stop the sower from sowing in the country of Babylon, and stop the harvester swinging the sickle to reap the grain. Under the threat of the enemies' swords, everyone runs home to their own people, they go back to where they came from.
17 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili fi dunu da sibi amo laione wa: mega sefasi amola afagogoi dagoi, amo agoane ba: sa. Degabo, Asilia hina bagade da ilima doagala: i. Amasea, fedege agoane, Ba: bilone hina bagade Nebiuga: denese, da ilia gasa gagisu.
The Israelites are a flock that's been chased and scattered by lions. The first on the attack was the king of Assyria; then lastly Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon crushed their bones.
18 Amaiba: le, Na, Hina Gode Bagadedafa, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode, da Asilia hina bagade ema se iasu defele, hina bagade Nebiuga: denese amola ea fi ilima se imunu.
So this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: I'm going to punish the king of Babylon and his country just like I punished the king of Assyria.
19 Na da Isala: ili fi ilia sogega buhagima: ne, logo doasimu. Ilia da ha: i manu amo da Gamele Goumia amola Ba: isia: ne sogega heda: lebe amo manu, amola ha: i manu bugi Ifala: ime soge amola Gilia: de sogega gala, amoga ilia hanaiga defele manu.
I will lead the Israelites back to their pasturelands, to feed on Carmel and Bashan, to satisfy their appetites on the hills of Ephraim and Gilead.
20 Amo eso da doaga: sea, Isala: ili fi amola Yuda fi amo ganodini da wadela: i hou dialebe hame ba: mu. Bai dunu amo ilia esalusu Na da gaga: i, ilia wadela: i hou amola Na da gogolema: ne olofomu. Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.”
This will be when the guilt and the sins of Israel and Judah will be looked for, but none will be found, because I will forgive those people who remain that I'm looking after, declares the Lord.
21 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Melada: ime fi amola Bigode fi (ela da Ba: bilone fi) ilima doagala: ma! Ilia huluane medole legele wadela: lesima! Na sia: i liligi huluane hamoma! Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.
Go and attack the land of Merathaim, and the people living in Pekod. Kill them with swords, set them apart for destruction, along with everything they leave behind. Make sure you do everything I have ordered you to do, declares the Lord.
22 Ba: bilone soge ganodini gegemusa: ha lasu da naba. Amola wadela: su bagade ba: sa.
The noise of battle is heard in the country, the noise of terrible destruction.
23 Ba: bilone da ‘ha: ma’ (hammer) agoane, fifi asi gala huluane fifima: ne fananu. Be wali amo ‘ha: ma’ da fifilasi dagoi. Ema doaga: i hou ba: beba: le, fifi asi gala huluane da bagadewane fofogadigisa.
See how the hammer of the whole earth is lying broken in pieces in the ground! The nations look with horror on what Babylon has become!
24 Ba: bilone fi! Dilia da nama gegenanu. Be wali dilia da sani amo Na da dili sa: ima: ne gei, amoga sa: i dagoi. Dilia da mae dawa: iwane amoga sa: i dagoi.
Babylon, I set a trap for you, and you were caught before you realized it. You were hunted down and captured because you fought against the Lord.
25 Na da Na gegesu liligi lidiligalei diasu amo doasili amola Na da ougiba: le, amo liligi gagui dagoi. Bai Na, Ouligisu Hina Gode Bagadedafa, da Ba: bilone sogega hawa: hamomu galaiou.
In his anger the Lord opened his armory to bring out his weapons, for this is what the Lord God Almighty is doing in the country of Babylonia.
26 La: ididili huluane amoga Ba: bilonema doagala: ma! Ea widi amola gagoma legesu diasu fima! Lai liligi amo widi lelegela heda: i agoane lelegela heda: ma! Soge wadela: ma! Liligi huluanedafa wadela: lesima!
Come and attack her from every side! Open her granaries; collect the loot you take from her like piles of grain. Set her apart for destruction; don't leave any survivors.
27 Ba: bilone dadi gagui dunu huluane medole legema! Medole legema! Ba: bilone dunu da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu! Ilima se iasu eso da doaga: i dagoi.
Kill all her young bulls with the sword; let them be slaughtered. What a disaster for them, because their time has come when they're punished.
28 (Mugululi asi dunu da Ba: bilone soge yolesili, hobeale, Yelusaleme diasuga doaga: sa. Ilia da sia: ne iasu amo ninia Hina Gode da Ba: bilone dunu ilima dabe i dagoi - bai ilia da Ea Debolo diasu wadela: lesi - amo ilia da olelesa.)
(Listen to the refugees and survivors who have returned from Babylonia, announcing in Zion, “The Lord our God is paying them back for what happened to his Temple.”)
29 Dadi gagui dunu ilima ilia Ba: bilone fi doagala: ma: ne sia: ma! Dunu huluane amo da dadiga gala: su dawa: , amo gadili asunasima! Moilai sisiga: le, dunu afae mae hobeama: ne, logo huluane ga: ma! Ba: bilone fi ilima dabe ima. Ilia hou eno fi ilima hamoi, amo defele ilima hamoma! Bai ilia da Na, Isala: ili ilia Hadigi Gode, Nama gasa fili hamoi.
Call up the archers to attack Babylon, yes, all of them! Completely surround her—don't let anyone escape. Pay her back for what she's done, because in her pride she defied the Lord, Israel's Holy One.
30 Amaiba: le, ilia ayeligi dunu da moilai logoga medole legei dagoi ba: mu. Amola amo esoga, ilia dadi gagui dunu da medole legei dagoi ba: mu. Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.
As a result her young men will be killed in the streets; all her soldiers will die that day, declares the Lord.
31 Ba: bilone! Di da gasa fi hou amoga nabai gala. Amaiba: le, Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode Bagadedafa, da dima ha lai hamoi dagoi. Na da dima se imunu eso ilegei, amo da doaga: i dagoi.
Watch out, because I'm against you, you arrogant people! declares the Lord God Almighty. Your time has come when I will punish you.
32 Dia hidale hamosu gasa fi da sadenane dafamu. Amola, dunu eno di wa: legadolesimu hamedafa ba: mu. Na da dia moilai bai bagade huluane laluga ulagimu. Amola liligi huluane sisiga: le dialebe da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu.”
You arrogant people will trip and fall. Nobody will be there to pick you up. I'm going to set fire to your towns and burn up everything around you.
33 Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili fi amola Yuda fi da banenesiwane esalebe ba: sa. Dunu amo da ili gagulaligi, da ili ha: giwane sosodo aligisa. Amola ilia da ili se iasu udigili hawa: hamosu logo doasimusa: hame dawa:
This is what the Lord Almighty says: The people of Israel and Judah are being mistreated. All who captured them are holding onto them, refusing to let them go.
34 Be ilia gaga: su dunu da gasa bagadewane esala. Ea dio da Hina Gode Bagadedafa. Hisu da ilimagale gegemu. E da osobo bagade fifi asi gala ilima olofosu iasimu. Be E da Ba: bilone fi ilima bidi hamosu iasimu.”
But the one who rescues them is powerful; the Lord Almighty is his name. He will defend them and their cause, so he may bring peace on earth, but trouble to the people of Babylon.
35 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Ba: bilone soge da bogosu ba: ma! Ea fi dunu amola ouligisu dunu amola bagade dawa: su dunu da bogosu ba: mu.
A sword is raised to attack the Babylonians, declares the Lord, ready to attack those who live in Babylon, and her officials and wise men.
36 Ea ogogosu balofede dunu da bogosu ba: mu. Ilia da gagaoui dunu. Ea dadi gagui dunu da bogosu ba: mu. Ilia da bagadewane beda: i.
A sword is raised to attack her false prophets, and they will become fools. A sword is raised to attack her soldiers, and they will be terrified.
37 Ea hosi amola sa: liode huluane wadela: lesima! Ea ga fi muni lama: ne hawa: hamosu dadi gagui dunu da bogosu ba: mu. Ilia da gasa hamedafa ba: sa. Ba: bilone liligi ida: iwane gala huluane wadela: lesima! Huluane gesowale lale dagoma!
A sword is raised to attack her horses and chariots, along with all the foreign soldiers with her, and they will become like frightened women. A sword is raised to attack her stores of treasure, and they will be plundered.
38 Ea sogega esoi bagade iasima. Ea hano huluane hafoga: ma! Ba: bilone soge ganodini da loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ bagohame. Ea fi dunu da ilima beda: iba: le, gagaoui agoane ba: sa.
A drought has hit her rivers, and they will dry up. For it's a country full of pagan images. These horrible idols drive their worshipers mad.
39 Amaiba: le, Ba: bilone soge ganodini, Fio liligi amola wadela: i a: silibu amola ledo hamoi sio bagohame ba: mu. Dunu fi da amo soge ganodini hamedafa esalumu.
Consequently desert animals and hyenas will live there, and it will be a home for owls. It will be uninhabited forever—it won't be lived in from one generation to the next.
40 Musa: hemonega, Na da Sodame amola Goumola amola amo sisiga: le dialebe moilai fonobahadi huluane amo wadela: lesi dagoi. Amo hou defele da Ba: bilone fi ilima doaga: mu. Dunu afae da amo ganodini wali amola eso huluane hame esalebe ba: mu. Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.
In the same way that God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighboring towns, declares the Lord, no one will live there, no one will stay there.
41 Gagoe (north) soge amoga fi bagadedafa da gegemusa: manebe. Hina bagade bagohame da gegemusa: momagesa.
Look! An army is advancing from the north. A great nation and many kings are coming against you from the distant lands.
42 Ilia da ilia dadi amola gegesu gobihei gagui dagoi. Ilia da nimi bagade hame asigi dunu. Ilia da hosi da: iya fila heda: le ahoasea, ilia ha lasu da hano wayabo bagade ea gafululi fugala: sa agoane naba. Ilia da Ba: bilone fi ilima doagala: musa: momagei dagoi.
They're carrying bows and javelins. They are cruel and merciless. When they shout it's like the sea roaring. They ride on horses and attack in formation against you, people of Babylon.
43 Ba: bilone hina bagade da ilia manebe sia: nabasea, ea lobo da bodola: le gudusa. E da uda da mano lalelegemu gadenesea se naba, amo defele e da se naba.
The king of Babylon has heard the news and he's terrified. He's overcome with fear, in pain like a woman in labor.
44 Laione wa: me da Yodane Hano bega: iwila amo yolesili, bulamagau ha: i manu mola: ya: i gisi soge amoga manebe, amo defele Na, Hina Gode da Ba: bilone dunu ilima doagala: musa: misunu. Amasea, Ba: bilone dunu da ilia moilai yolesili, hobeamu. Nowa da Na agoanela: ? Nowa da Nama doagala: mu dawa: bela: ? Nowa ouligisu dunu da Nama gegemusa: dawa: bela: ? Nama hasalasimu da hamedeidafa.
Watch out! I'm going to come like a lion from the tangled undergrowth beside the Jordan to attack the animals grazing the green pasture. In fact I'm going to chase the Babylonians from their land very quickly. Who will I choose to conquer them? Who is like me? Who can challenge me? Which leader could oppose me?
45 Amaiba: le, Na da Ba: bilone soge amola ea fi dunu ilima hamoma: ne ilegesu amo nabima! Ilia huluane amola ilia mano da ga hiouginana asi dagoi ba: mu. Amasea, dunu huluane da bagadewane beda: mu.
So listen to what the Lord has planned to do to Babylon and the country of Babylonia: Their children will be dragged away like lambs from the flock, and because of them their pasture will become a wasteland.
46 Ba: bilone da dafasea, sia: bagade nababeba: le, osobo bagade da igugumu. Amola fifi asi gala huluane da ilia beda: ga wele sia: nebe nabimu.
The sound of Babylon's capture will make the earth shake; their cries will be heard throughout the nations.
