< Jeremiah 34 >

1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, all his army, all the earthly kingdoms under his control, and all the other nations were fighting against Jerusalem and all its surrounding cities.
Daytoy ti sao nga immay kenni Jeremias a naggapu kenni Yahweh. Immay daytoy a sao idi madama a gubgubaten ni Nebucadnesar nga ari ti Babilonia ken amin dagiti armadana, a kadduana dagiti amin a pagarian iti daga, dagiti pagarian nga iturturayanna, ken amin dagiti tattaoda, ti Jerusalem ken amin a siudad daytoy. Kastoy ti ibagbagana,
2 The LORD, the God of Israel, told Jeremiah to go and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah and tell him that this is what the LORD says: “Behold, I am about to deliver this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will burn it down.
'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel: Mapanmo ibaga kenni Zedekias nga ari ti Juda ket kunam kenkuana, “Kastoy ti ibagbaga ni Yahweh: Kitaem, dandanikon iyawat daytoy a siudad iti ima ti ari ti Babilonia. Puorananto daytoy. Saankanto a makalibas manipud iti imana, ta matiliwka ken maiyawatkanto iti imana.
3 And you yourself will not escape his grasp, but will surely be captured and delivered into his hand. You will see the king of Babylon eye to eye and speak with him face to face; and you will go to Babylon.
Makitanto dagiti matam dagiti mata ti ari ti Babilonia; makisaonto a mismo kenka inton mapanka idiay Babilonia.'
4 Yet hear the word of the LORD, O Zedekiah king of Judah. This is what the LORD says concerning you: You will not die by the sword;
Dumngegka iti sao ni Yahweh, Zedekias nga ari ti Juda! Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipanggep kenka, 'Saankanto a matay babaen iti kampilan.
5 you will die in peace. As spices were burned for your fathers, the former kings who preceded you, so people will burn spices for you and lament, ‘Alas, O master!’ For I Myself have spoken this word, declares the LORD.”
Mataykanto a sikakappia. Kas iti panangpuorda iti insenso iti punpon dagiti kapuonam, dagiti immun-una nga ar-ari ngem sika, puorandanto ti bangkaymo. Kunadanto, “Asika pay apo!” Dung-awandakanto. Imbagakon - daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
6 In Jerusalem, then, Jeremiah the prophet relayed all these words to Zedekiah king of Judah
Impakaamo ngarud ni Jeremias a profeta kenni Zedekias nga ari ti Juda amin dagitoy a sasao idiay Jerusalem.
7 as the army of the king of Babylon was fighting against Jerusalem and the remaining cities of Judah—against Lachish and Azekah. For these were the only fortified cities remaining in Judah.
Ginubat ti armada ti ari ti Babilonia ti Jerusalem ken dagiti amin a siudad ti Juda: ti Lacis ken Azeka. Dagitoy a siduad ti Juda ket nagtalinaed a nasarikedkedan a siudad.
8 After King Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people in Jerusalem to proclaim liberty, the word came to Jeremiah from the LORD
Daytoy ti sao nga immay kenni Jeremias manipud kenni Yahweh kalpasan a nakitulag ni Ari Zedekias kadagiti amin a tattao idiay Jerusalem nga iwaragawagna ti pannakawayawaya:
9 that each man should free his Hebrew slaves, both male and female, and no one should hold his fellow Jew in bondage.
Masapul a wayawayaan ti tunggal maysa ti adipenna nga Israelita, lalaki ken babai. Masapul nga awanen ti siasinoman a mangtagabu iti padana nga Israelita iti Juda.
10 So all the officials and all the people who entered into this covenant agreed that they would free their menservants and maidservants and no longer hold them in bondage. They obeyed and released them,
Nagtungpal ngarud amin dagiti mangidadaulo ken tattao a nakipagmaymaysa iti tulag. Tunggal maysa ket wayawayaanna ti lalaki ken babai nga addipenna ket saanda idan a tagabuen pay. Impangagda ket pinalubosanda dagitoy a pumanaw.
11 but later they changed their minds and took back the menservants and maidservants they had freed, and they forced them to become slaves again.
Ngem kalpasan daytoy, nagbaliw ti panunotda. Pinilitda ida nga agbalin manen a tagabu.
12 Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Immay ngarud ti sao ni Yahweh kenni Jeremias a kunana,
13 “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: I made a covenant with your forefathers when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery, saying:
“Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, 'Siak a mismo ket nakitulag kadagiti kapuonanyo iti aldaw nga inruarko ida manipud iti daga ti Egipto, manipud iti lugar ti pannakatagabu. Dayta ket idi imbagak,
14 Every seventh year, each of you must free his Hebrew brother who has sold himself to you. He may serve you six years, but then you must let him go free. But your fathers did not listen or incline their ear.
“Iti panagleppas ti tunggal pito a tawen, tunggal maysa ket masapul a palubosanna ti kabsatna, a padana a Hebreo a nangilako iti bagina kadakayo ken nagserbi kadakayo iti las-ud ti innem a tawen. Wayawayaanyo isuna.” Ngem saandak nga impangag wenno inkaskaso dagiti kapuonanyo.
15 Recently you repented and did what pleased Me; each of you proclaimed freedom for his neighbor. You made a covenant before Me in the house that bears My Name.
Ita, nagbabawikayo, ket inrugiyo nga aramiden no ania ti makay-ayo iti imatangko. Nangwayawayakayo, tunggal maysa iti karrubana. Ket nangpasingkedkayo iti maysa a tulag iti sangoanak, iti balay a pakaaw-awagan ti naganko.
16 But now you have changed your minds and profaned My name. Each of you has taken back the menservants and maidservants whom you had set at liberty to go wherever they wanted, and you have again forced them to be your slaves.
Ngem kalpasanna, timmalikudkayo ken minulitanyo ti naganko; pinasubliyo iti tunggal maysa ti adipenna a babai ken lalaki, isuda dagitoy dagiti pinalubosanyo a mapan iti sadinnoman a kayatda. Pinilityo ida nga agbalin a tagabuyo manen.
17 Therefore this is what the LORD says: You have not obeyed Me; you have not proclaimed freedom, each man for his brother and for his neighbor. So now I proclaim freedom for you, declares the LORD—freedom to fall by sword, by plague, and by famine! I will make you a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth.
Gapu iti daytoy, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, 'Dakayo a mismo ket saandak nga impangag. Rumbeng koma nga impatungpalyo ti panangwayawaya, tunggal maysa kadakayo, kadagiti kakabsatyo ken kadagiti padayo nga Israelita. Dumngegkayo! Ipatungpalko kadakayo ti pannakawayawaya - daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh - pannakawayawaya a maipaay iti pannakadusa babaen iti kampilan, iti didigra, iti panagbisin, ta pagbalinenkayo a nakabutbuteng a banag iti imatang ti tunggal pagarian iti rabaw ti daga.
18 And those who have transgressed My covenant and have not fulfilled the terms of the covenant they made before Me, I will treat like the calf they cut in two in order to pass between its pieces.
Ket iyawatkonto dagiti tattao a nangsalungasing iti tulagko, a saan a nangtungpal kadagiti sao ti tulag a pinasingkedanda iti sangaonak idi nangguduada iti baka ken nagnada iti nagbaetan dagiti paset dagitoy,
19 The officials of Judah and Jerusalem, the court officials, the priests, and all the people of the land who passed between the pieces of the calf,
ket kalpasanna, dagiti mangidadaulo iti Juda ken Jerusalem, dagiti eunoko ken dagiti papadi, ken amin dagiti tattao iti daga ket nagna iti nagbaetan dagiti paset ti baka.
20 I will deliver into the hands of their enemies who seek their lives. Their corpses will become food for the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth.
Iyawatkonto ida iti ima dagiti kabusorda, ken kadagiti mangayat a mangkettel iti biagda. Dagiti bagida ket agbalinto a taraon dagiti billit iti tangatang ken dagiti ayup iti rabaw ti daga.
21 And I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah and his officials into the hands of their enemies who seek their lives, to the army of the king of Babylon that had withdrawn from you.
Iwayatkonto met ni Zedekias nga ari ti Juda ken dagiti mangidadaulona iti ima dagiti kabusorda ken kadagiti mangayat a mangkettel iti biagda, ken iti ima ti armada ti ari ti Babilonia nga umay, a maibusor kadakayo.
22 Behold, I am going to give the command, declares the LORD, and I will bring them back to this city. They will fight against it, capture it, and burn it down. And I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.”
Kitaenyo, ngannganiakon nga mangted iti bilin - daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh - ket isublikto ida iti daytoy a siudad tapno gubaten, sakupen, ken puoranda daytoy. Ta pagbalinekto dagiti siudad ti Juda a langalang a lugar ket awanto ti agnaed.'”
