1 Shefatia wuod Matan, Gedalia wuod Pashur, Jehukal wuod Shelemia, kod Pashur wuod Malkija nowinjo gima Jeremia ne nyiso ji duto sa mane owacho ni,
UShefathiya indodana kaMathani, loGedaliya indodana kaPhashuri, uJewukhali indodana kaShelemiya, loPhashuri indodana kaMalikhija bakuzwa uJeremiya ayekutshela abantu bonke esithi,
2 “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Ngʼato angʼata modak e dala maduongʼni noneg gi ligangla, kech kata masira, to ngʼato angʼata manodhi ir jo-Babulon nobed mangima. Notony gi ngimane; mi nobed mangima.’
“UThixo uthi: ‘Lowo ozasala kulelidolobho uzabulawa yinkemba, yindlala kumbe yisifo; kodwa lowo ozakuya kumaKhaladiya uzasila. Uzaphunyuka lokuphila kwakhe; uzaphila.’
3 Kendo ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Dala maduongʼni nyaka chiwne jolweny mar ruodh Babulon ma nokawe.’”
Njalo uThixo uthi: ‘Idolobho leli lizanikelwa impela ebuthweni lenkosi yaseBhabhiloni ezalithumba.’”
4 Eka jotelo nowachone ruoth niya, “Ngʼatni onego negi. Onyoso chuny jolweny modongʼ e dala maduongʼ ni, kaachiel gi ji duto, gi gigo mowachonegi. Ngʼatni ok dwar dhi maber mar jogi to mana kethruokgi.”
Izikhulu zasezisithi enkosini, “Umuntu lo kumele abulawe. Wenza amabutho asala kulelidolobho aphelelwe lithemba, kanye labantu bonke, ngenxa yezinto azitshoyo kubo. Umuntu lo kadingi okuhle kwabantu laba, kodwa ukubhujiswa kwabo.”
5 Ruoth Zedekia nowacho niya, “En e lwetu. Onge gima ruoth nyalo timo mondo okwed wachu.”
UZedekhiya inkosi waphendula wathi, “Usezandleni zenu. Inkosi ingeke yenze lutho ukuba iliphikise.”
6 Omiyo negikawo Jeremia ma giketo e bur mar Malkija, wuod ruoth, mane nitiere e laru mar jarito. Ne giloro Jeremia gi tonde ei burno; ne onge pi e iye, chwodho ema ne nitie, kendo Jeremia nonimo ei chwodho.
Ngakho bamthatha uJeremiya bamfaka emgodini kaMalikhija, indodana yenkosi, owawusegumeni labalindi. UJeremiya bamehlisela phansi phakathi komgodi ngemichilo; wawungelamanzi, kuludaka kuphela, ngakho uJeremiya watshona edakeni.
7 To Ebed-Melek, ja-Kush, ma jatelo e kar dak ruoth, nowinjo nine giseketo Jeremia ei bur. Ka ruoth ne obet e Dhoranga Benjamin,
Kodwa u-Ebhedi-Meleki, umKhushi, isikhulu endlini yobukhosi, wezwa ukuthi basebefake uJeremiya emgodini. Kwathi-ke inkosi ihlezi eSangweni lakoBhenjamini,
8 Ebed-Melek nowuok oa e kar dak ruoth kendo owachone ni,
u-Ebhedi-Meleki waphuma esigodlweni wathi kuyo,
9 “Jaduongʼ ma ruodha, jogi osetimo gima mono kuom gigo duto magisetimone janabi Jeremia. Giwite e bur, kama kech biro nege motho ka makati duto orumo e dala maduongʼ.”
“Nkosi yami lombusi wami, abantu laba benze ububi kukho konke abakwenze kuJeremiya umphrofethi. Sebemphosele emgodini lapho azalamba khona aze afe kungaselakudla edolobheni.”
10 Eka ruoth nomiyo Ebed-Melek ja-Kush chik, “Kaw chwo piero adek koa kae kendo ugol janabi Jeremia e bur kapok otho.”
Ngakho inkosi yalaya u-Ebhedi-Meleki umKhushi yathi, “Thatha amadoda angamatshumi amathathu lapha likhuphe uJeremiya umphrofethi emgodini engakafi.”
11 Omiyo Ebed-Melek nokawo jogo kendo odhigo e agola manie bwo kar keno mar dala ruoth. Ne okawo lewni moyiech kod lewni moti kanyo kendo nolorogi piny gi tol ne Jeremia ei bur.
Ngakho u-Ebhedi-Meleki wathatha amadoda lawo waya lawo endlini engaphansi kwendlu yengcebo esigodlweni. Wathatha amanikiniki amadala lezigqoko ezigugileyo khonapho wakwehlisela phansi kuJeremiya emgodini ngemichilo.
12 Ebed-Melek ja-Kush nowacho ne Jeremia niya, “Ket lewni mokengoregi kod lewni moti e yuothi mondo kik tol ridhi.” Jeremia notimo kamano,
U-Ebhedi-Meleki umKhushi wathi kuJeremiya, “Faka amanikiniki la amadala lezigqoko lezi ezigugileyo emakhwapheni akho ukuze imichilo ingakulimazi.” UJeremiya wenza njalo,
13 mine giywaye gi tol ma gigole oko mar bur. Kendo Jeremia nodongʼ e laru mar jarito.
basebemdonsela phezulu ngemichilo, bamkhupha emgodini. UJeremiya wahlala egumeni labalindi.
14 Eka Ruoth Zedekia nooro wach mondo okelne janabi Jeremia kendo nokelnego e kar donjo mar adek mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye. Ruoth nowachone niya, “Adhi penji gimoro. Kik ipanda wach.”
Inkosi uZedekhiya wabiza uJeremiya umphrofethi wasiwa entubeni yesithathu yethempeli likaThixo. Inkosi yasisithi kuJeremiya, “Ngizakubuza okuthize. Ungangifihleli lutho.”
15 Jeremia nowachone Zedekia niya, “Ka adwoki, donge ibiro nega? Kata ka anangʼadni rieko, bende iniwinja.”
UJeremiya wathi kuZedekhiya, “Ngingakuphendula kawuyikungibulala na? Loba ngingakweluleka, kawuyikungilalela.”
16 To Ruoth Zedekia nokwongʼore gi kwongʼruokni lingʼ-lingʼ ne Jeremia: “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima, mosemiyowa muya, ok ananegi kata chiwi ne jogo madwaro ngimani.”
Kodwa inkosi uZedekhiya wafunga isifungo lesi ngasese kuJeremiya, wathi, “Ngeqiniso elinjengoba uThixo ekhona, yena owasinika ukuphefumula, angiyikukubulala loba ngikunikele kulabo abafuna ukukubulala.”
17 Eka Jeremia nowachone Zedekia niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: ‘Ka ichiwori ne jotelo mag ruodh Babulon, ngimani noweni kendo dala maduongʼni ok nowangʼ, in kod joodi unubed mangima.
Lapho-ke uJeremiya wathi kuZedekhiya, “UThixo uNkulunkulu uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: ‘Ungazinikela ezikhulwini zenkosi yaseBhabhiloni, impilo yakho izaphepha njalo ledolobho leli kaliyikutshiswa ngomlilo; wena labendlu yakho lizasila.
18 To ka ok ichiwori ne jotend ruodh Babulon, dala maduongʼni nomi jo-Babulon kendo giniwangʼe; un uwegi ok unutony e lwetgi.’”
Kodwa nxa ungazinikeli ezikhulwini zenkosi yaseBhabhiloni, idolobho leli lizanikelwa kumaKhaladiya azalitshisa ngomlilo; njalo wena uqobo kawuyikuphunyuka ezandleni zawo.’”
19 Ruoth Zedekia nowachone Jeremia niya, “Aluoro jo-Yahudi mosedhi ir jo-Babulon, nimar jo-Babulon nyalo chiwa e lwetgi mi gisanda.”
INkosi uZedekhiya wasesithi kuJeremiya, “Ngiyabesaba abakoJuda asebe kumaKhaladiya, ngoba amaKhaladiya anganginikela kubo bangiphathe kubi.”
20 Jeremia nodwoke niya, “Ok ginichiwi.” Luor Jehova Nyasaye kitimo gima anyisi. Eka inine maber, kendo ngimani noweni.
UJeremiya wathi, “Kabayikukunikela. Lalela uThixo ngokwenza lokhu engikutshela khona. Lapho-ke kuzakulungela, njalo lempilo yakho izaphepha.
21 To ka itamori chiwori, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye osefwenyona:
Kodwa ungala ukuzinikela, nanku okuvezwe nguThixo kimi:
22 Mon duto mane odongʼ kar dak mar ruodh Juda nokelne jotelo mar ruodh Babulon. Mon-go nowachni ni: Osiepegi mane igenogo nowuondi kendo noloyi. Tiendegi oselingʼore e chwodho; osiepegi oseweyi.
Bonke abesifazane abasele endlini yobukhosi yenkosi yakoJuda bazakhutshelwa phandle ezikhulwini zenkosi yaseBhabhiloni bathi kuwe: ‘Bakukhohlisile bakwehlula abangane bakho abathenjiweyo. Inyawo zakho zitshonile edakeni; abangane bakho bakudelile.’
23 “Mondeu duto kod nyithindu nokelne jo-Babulon. Un uwegi ok unutony e lwetgi to enomaku gi ruodh Babulon; kendo dala maduongʼni nowangʼ mapodhi.”
Abafazi bakho kanye labantwana bazakhutshelwa phandle kumaKhaladiya. Lawe uqobo kawuyikuphunyuka ezandleni zawo, kodwa uzathunjwa yinkosi yaseBhabhiloni; njalo idolobho leli lizatshiswa ngomlilo.”
24 Eka Zedekia nowachone Jeremia niya, “Kik iwe ngʼato ongʼe twak-wani, ka ok kamano to inyalo tho.
UZedekhiya wasesithi kuJeremiya, “Akungabi lomuntu omazisa inkulumo le, hlezi ufe.
25 Ka jotelo owinjo nine awuoyo kodi, kendo gibiro iri ma giwacho, ‘Nyiswa gima ne iwachone ruoth kendo gima ruoth nowachoni; kik ipandwa ka ok kamano to wabiro negi,’
Izikhulu zingezwa ukuthi ngike ngakhuluma lawe, besezisiza kuwe zithi, ‘Sitshele lokho okutshiloyo enkosini kanye lokutshiwo yinkosi kuwe; ungasifihleli funa sikubulale,’
26 to nyisgi ni, ‘Ne asayo ruoth mondo kik oora adog e od Jonathan mondo atho kanyo.’”
wena zitshele uthi, ‘Kade ngincenga inkosi ukuthi ingangibuyiseli endlini kaJonathani ukuyafela khona.’”
27 Jotelo duto nobiro ir Jeremia mi gipenje, kendo nonyisogi gik moko duto mane ruoth ochike mondo awachi. Omiyo onge gima negichako ginyise, nimar onge ngʼama nowinjo twakgi gi ruoth.
Lakanye izikhulu zonke zaya kuJeremiya zambuza, yena wazitshela konke inkosi eyayimlaye ukuthi akutsho. Ngakho kazisatshongo lutho kuye futhi, ngoba kakho owayeyizwile inkulumo yakhe lenkosi.
28 Kendo Jeremia nodongʼ e laru mar jarito nyaka odiechiengʼ ma Jerusalem nokaw. Ma e kaka Jerusalem ne okaw:
UJeremiya wahlala egumeni labalindi kwaze kwaba lusuku lokuthunjwa kweJerusalema. IJerusalema lathunjwa kanje:
