Ilizwi lafika kuJeremiya livela kuThixo emva kokuba uNebhuzaradani umlawuli wabalindi besikhosini, esemkhulule eRama. Wayefice uJeremiya ebotshwe ngamaketane phakathi kwabo bonke ababethunjwe eJerusalema lakoJuda ababesiwa ekuthunjweni eBhabhiloni.
2 Ka jatend lweny noyudo Jeremia, nowachone niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi nochiko masirani ne pinyni.”
Umlawuli wabalindi esethole uJeremiya wathi kuye, “UThixo uNkulunkulu wakho wamisela indawo le umonakalo lo.
3 Kendo koro Jehova Nyasaye osemiyo otimore; osetimo kaka ne owacho ni obiro timo. Magi duto notimore nikech nutimo richo ne Jehova Nyasaye kendo ne ok gitimo dwaro mare.
Khathesi uThixo usewulethile; usenze ayethe uzakwenza. Konke lokhu kwenzakala ngoba lina bantu lona kuThixo njalo kalimlalelanga.
4 To kawuononi aweyi thuolo ka agonyo nyoroche manie ngʼut lweti. Dhi koda Babulon, ka ihero, kendo anariti; to ka ok idwar, to kik ibi. Ne, piny ngima ni e lweti; dhi kamoro amora midwaro.
Kodwa lamhla ngiyakukhulula amaketane ezihlakaleni zakho. Hamba lami eBhabhiloni, nxa uthanda, ngizakugcina; kodwa nxa ungafuni, ungahambi. Khangela, ilizwe lonke liphambi kwakho; yana loba kungaphi lapho ofuna khona.”
5 Kata kamano, ka Jeremia ne pod ok owuok, Nebuzaradan nomedo kawacho niya, “Dog ir Gedalia wuod Ahikam, ma wuod Shafan, ma ruodh Babulon oseyiero mondo orit mier mag Juda, kendo idag kode kaachiel gi ji, ka ok kamano to idhi kamoro amora mihero.” Eka jatend lweny nomiye gik moko kod mich bangʼe noweye odhi.
Kodwa-ke kwathi uJeremiya engakasuki ukuba ahambe, uNebhuzaradani wengeza wathi, “Buyela kuGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikhami, indodana kaShafani, osebekwe yinkosi yaseBhabhiloni ukuba abuse amadolobho akoJuda, uhlale laye phakathi kwabantu, kumbe uye loba kungaphi lapho ofuna khona.” Emva kwalokho umlawuli wamnika umphako lesipho wasesithi kahambe.
6 Omiyo Jeremia nodhi Mizpa ir Gedalia wuod Ahikam mi odak kode kaachiel gi ji mane odongʼ e pinyno.
Ngakho uJeremiya waya kuGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikhami eMizipha wahlala phakathi kwabantu ababetshiywe elizweni.
