< Jeremiah 43 >
1 When Jeremiah had finished telling all the people all the words of the LORD their God—everything that the LORD had sent him to say—
Nga aksafyela in fahk ma nukewa nu sin mwet uh ma LEUM GOD lalos El supweyu in fahk nu selos.
2 Azariah son of Hoshaiah, Johanan son of Kareah, and all the arrogant men said to Jeremiah, “You are lying! The LORD our God has not sent you to say, ‘You must not go to Egypt to reside there.’
Na Azariah wen natul Hoshaiah, ac Johanan wen natul Kareah, ac mwet enum saya nukewa elos fahk nu sik, “Kom kikiap. LEUM GOD lasr El tiana supwekom in fahk nu sesr kut in tia som muta Egypt.
3 Rather, Baruch son of Neriah is inciting you against us to deliver us into the hands of the Chaldeans, so that they may put us to death or exile us to Babylon!”
Baruch, wen natul Neriah, el pirikkomyak lain kut, tuh mwet Babylonia fah ku facsr ac unikuti, ku uskutla nu Babylonia.”
4 So Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the forces disobeyed the command of the LORD to stay in the land of Judah.
Ouinge Johanan, ac mwet fulat lun un mwet mweun, ac mwet nukewa, tiana akos sap lun LEUM GOD tuh elos in mutana in facl Judah.
5 Instead, Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the forces took the whole remnant of Judah, those who had returned to the land of Judah from all the nations to which they had been scattered,
Na Johanan, ac mwet fulat nukewa lun un mwet mweun, elos usla mwet nukewa su lula in facl Judah nu Egypt, weang mwet nukewa su foloko liki mutunfacl puspis ma elos fahsrelik nu we:
6 the men, the women, the children, the king’s daughters, and everyone whom Nebuzaradan captain of the guard had allowed to remain with Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, as well as Jeremiah the prophet and Baruch son of Neriah.
mukul, mutan, tulik, ac acn nutin tokosra, oayapa nga ac Baruch — aok, mwet nukewa su captain fulat Nebuzaradan el tuh filiya ye karinginyuk lal Gedaliah.
7 So they entered the land of Egypt because they did not obey the voice of the LORD, and they went as far as Tahpanhes.
Elos tia akos sap lun LEUM GOD, a elos som na nu Egypt, ac fahlana nwe ke siti Tahpanhes.
8 Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah at Tahpanhes:
In acn Tahpanhes LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
9 “In the sight of the Jews, pick up some large stones and bury them in the clay of the brick pavement at the entrance to Pharaoh’s palace at Tahpanhes.
“Eis kutu eot lulap ac pikinya ye acn se ma pave ke nien utyak nu in lohm sin tokosra in siti se inge. Lela kutu sin mwet Judah in liye ke kom oru.
10 Then tell them that this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘I will send for My servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and I will set his throne over these stones that I have embedded, and he will spread his royal pavilion over them.
Na fahk nu selos lah nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, ac fah usalu mwet kulansap luk, Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia, nu yenu, ac el fah likiya tron lal fin eot ma kom pikinya inge, na el fah laknelik lohm nuknuk sel fac.
11 He will come and strike down the land of Egypt, bringing death to those destined for death, captivity to those destined for captivity, and the sword to those destined for the sword.
Nebuchadnezzar el ac tuku ac kutangla Egypt. Mwet ma srisrngiyuki in misa ke mas fah misa ke mas, elos su srisrngiyuki in utukla nu ke sruoh ac fah utukla sruoh, ac elos su srisrngiyuki in anwuki ke mweun ac fah misa ke mweun.
12 I will kindle a fire in the temples of the gods of Egypt, and Nebuchadnezzar will burn those temples and take their gods as captives. So he will wrap himself with the land of Egypt as a shepherd wraps himself in his garment, and he will depart from there unscathed.
Nga fah esukak tempul lun god nukewa lun Egypt, ac tokosra lun Babylonia el fin tia esukak ma sruloala lalos, el ac usla. Oana ke sie shepherd el ac kunesla kuut uh liki nuknuk lal, ouinge tokosra lun Babylonia fah sisla ma nukewa ma akkolukyela facl Egypt. Na tukun el kutangla, el ac som liki acn we.
13 He will demolish the sacred pillars of the temple of the sun in the land of Egypt, and he will burn down the temples of the gods of Egypt.’”
El fah kunausla sru ma oalkinyuk in acn Heliopolis in Egypt, ac el fah furreak tempul lun god lun mwet Egypt.”
