< Jeremias 50 >
1 And it came to pass, when Jeremias ceased speaking to the people all the words of the Lord, [for] which the Lord had sent him to them, [even] all these words,
Esia nye nya si Yehowa gblɔ to Nyagblɔɖila Yeremia dzi ku ɖe Babilonia kple Babiloniatɔwo ƒe anyigba ŋuti:
2 that Azarias son of Maasaeas spoke, and Joanan, the son of Caree, and all the men who had spoken to Jeremias, saying, [It is] false: the Lord has not sent thee to us, saying, Enter not into Egypt to dwell there:
“Miɖe gbeƒãe eye mido kpoe le dukɔwo dome, mikɔ aflaga dzi, ne miado bobloe; migagbe nya la katã gbɔgblɔ o, ke boŋ migblɔ be, ‘Woaxɔ Babilonia, ŋukpe alé Bel eye ŋɔdzi alé Marduk vevie. Woado ŋukpe eƒe legbawo eye ŋɔdzi alé eƒe aklamakpakpɛwo.’
3 but Baruch the son of Nerias sets thee against us, that thou mayest deliver us into the hands of the Chaldeans, to kill us, and that we should be carried away captives to Babylon.
Dukɔ si tso anyiehe la ava dze edzi eye wòagblẽ eƒe anyigba keŋkeŋ. Ame aɖeke manɔ edzi o, amewo kple lãwo siaa asi adzo.”
4 So Joanan, and all the leaders of the host, and all the people, refused to hearken to the voice of the Lord, to dwell in the land of Juda.
Yehowa be, “Le ŋkeke mawo me, le ɣe ma ɣi me la, Israelviwo kple Yudatɔwo siaa awɔ ɖeka ava Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la gbɔ kple avi.
5 And Joanan, and all the leaders of the host, took all the remnant of Juda, who had returned to dwell in the land;
Woabia Zion ƒe mɔ ta ase eye woatrɔ woƒe mo ɖo ɖe egbɔ. Woava eye woabla nubabla mavɔ kple Yehowa, nubabla si womaŋlɔ be akpɔ o.
6 the mighty men, and the women, and the children that were left, and the daughters of the king, and the souls which Nabuzardan had left with Godolias the son of Achicam and Jeremias the prophet, and Baruch the son of Nerias.
“Nye dukɔ le abe alẽ tatrawo ene, woƒe kplɔlawoe kplɔ wo trae eye wona wole tsatsam le towo dzi. Wole tsaglãla tsam le towo kple togbɛwo dzi eye woŋlɔ woawo ŋutɔ ƒe nɔƒe be.
7 And they came into Egypt: for they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord: and they entered into Taphnas.
Ame sia ame si ke ɖe wo ŋu la vuvua wo; woƒe futɔwo gblɔ be, ‘Míedze agɔ o, elabena wowɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe Yehowa, woƒe lãnyiƒe vavã, kple Yehowa wo fofowo ƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ ŋuti?’
8 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias in Taphnas, saying,
“Misi do go le Babilonia, midzo le Babiloniatɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi eye minɔ abe agbowo le alẽhawo ŋgɔ ene,
9 Take thee great stones, and hide them in the entrance, at the gate of the house of Pharao in Taphnas, in the sight of the men of Juda:
elabena made adã ta me na dukɔ siwo le anyiehenyigba dzi ɖe Babilonia ŋu eye woawɔ ɖeka aho ɖe eŋu. Woava aƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe eŋu eye woava lée tso anyiehe gome. Woƒe aŋutrɔwo magbɔ ƒuƒlu o, elabena woanɔ abe ame siwo bi ɖe aʋawɔwɔ me la tɔwo ene.
10 and thou shalt say, Thus has the Lord said; Behold, I [will] send, and will bring Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and he shall place his throne upon these stones which thou hast hidden, and he shall lift up weapons against them.
Ale Babilonia azu nuhaha eye ame siwo hae la akpɔ afunyinuwo fũu.” Yehowae gblɔe.
11 And he shall enter in, and smite the land of Egypt, [delivering] some for death to death; and some for captivity to captivity; and some for the sword to the sword.
“Esi mi ame siwo nye avuzi le nye domenyinu dzi, kpɔ dzidzɔ, hetso aseye eye esi mieti kpo abe nyinɔvi si le bli nyɔm ene, hexlɔ̃ abe sɔtsuwo ene ta la,
12 And he shall kindle a fire in the houses of their gods, and shall burn them, and shall carry them away captives: and shall search the land of Egypt, as a shepherd searches his garment; and he shall go forth in peace.
Ŋukpe gã aɖe ava mia dada dzi eye ame si dzi mi, woado vloe. Anye suetɔ le dukɔwo dome, azu gbegbe, kuɖiɖinyigba kple dzogbe.
13 And he shall break to pieces the pillars of Heliopolis that are in On, and shall burn their houses with fire.
Le Yehowa ƒe dziku helĩhelĩ ta la, ame maganɔ eme o, ke boŋ azu aƒedo. Ame sia ame si to Babilonia ŋu yi la ƒe nu aku eye woaɖu fewu le woƒe abixɔxɔwo katã ta.

“Israel nye alẽha si dzatawo ɖe ɖe nu, eye wokaka gbẽe. Ame gbãtɔ si vuvui lae nye Asiria fia ame mamlɛtɔ si gbã eƒe ƒuwo lae nye Babilonia fia Nebukadnezar.”
Eya ta ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: “Mahe to na Babilonia fia kple eƒe anyigba abe ale si mehe to na Asiria ene.

Yehowa be, “Le ŋkeke mawo me, le ɣe ma ɣi me, woatsa, adi Israel ƒe agɔdzedze gake womakpɔ ɖeke o eye woadi Yuda ƒe nu vɔ̃wo gake womakpɔ ɖeke o, elabena matsɔe ake ame susɔe siwo megblẽ ɖi.”
