< Jeremias 36 >

1 And these are the words of the book which Jeremias sent from Jerusalem to the elders of the captivity, and to the priests, and to the false prophets, even an epistle to Babylon for the captivity, and to all the people;
In yac se akakosr ma Jehoiakim, wen natul Josiah, el tokosra lun Judah, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
2 (after the departure of Jechonias the king and the queen, and the eunuchs, and every freeman, and bondman, and artificer, out of Jerusalem; )
“Eis sie book limlim ac simusla ma nukewa ma nga tuh fahk nu sum lain Israel ac Judah ac mutunfacl nukewa. Simusla ma nukewa nga tuh fahk nu sum, ke pacl se emeet nga kaskas nu sum in pacl lal Tokosra Josiah nwe misenge.
3 by the hand of Eleasan son of Saphan, and Gamarias son of Chelcias, (whom Sedekias king of Juda sent to the king of Babylon to Babylon) saying,
Sahp ke mwet Judah ac lohng ke ma upa nukewa nga akoo in oru nu selos, elos ac forla liki ouiyen moul koluk lalos. Na nga fah nunak munas ke ma koluk ac ma sutuu lalos.”
4 Thus said the Lord God of Israel concerning the captivity which I caused to be carried away from Jerusalem;
Ouinge nga pangnol Baruch, wen natul Neriah, ac fahkang nu sel ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahkma nu sik. Ac Baruch el simusla ma inge nukewa in sie book limlim.
5 Build you houses, and inhabit [them]; and plant gardens, and eat the fruits thereof;
Na nga fahkang nu sel Baruch ma elan oru: “Tia filfilla nga in som nu in Tempul.
6 and take you wives, and beget sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, and be multiplied, and be not diminished.
Ke ma inge kom fah som nu we ke pacl mwet uh ac sifil tukeni in lalo. Kom fah riti book limlim uh elos in lohng ma nukewa LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ac nga takin nu sum. Riti ma inge ke sie acn ma mwet nukewa ku in lohng kom we, weang mwet Judah su tuku liki siti srisrik selos.
7 And seek the peace of the land into which I have carried you captive, and you shall pray to the Lord for the people: for in its peace you shall [have] peace.
Sahp elos fah pre nu sin LEUM GOD, ac forla liki moul koluk lalos, mweyen LEUM GOD El akkalemye tari ma El akoo in sang lainulos ke mulat ac kasrkusrak yohk lal.”
8 For thus says the Lord; Let not the false prophets that are amongst you persuade you, and let not your diviners persuade you, and listen not to your dreams which you dream.
Ouinge Baruch el riti kas lun LEUM GOD in Tempul oana ke nga supwal in oru.
9 For they prophesy to you unrighteous [words] in my name; and I sent them not.
In malem se akeu ke yac se aklimekosr ke Jehoiakim, wen natul Josiah, el tokosra lun Judah, mwet Jerusalem nukewa, oayapa mwet nukewa su tuku liki siti srisrik lun Judah, elos tukeni lalo ye mutun LEUM GOD.
10 For thus said the Lord; When seventy years shall be on the point of being accomplished at Babylon, I will visit you, and will confirm my words to you, to bring back your people to this place.
Na ke mwet nukewa porongo, Baruch el riti ma nukewa nga tuh fahk nu sel su simla in book limlim sac. El tu in Tempul ke infukil sel Gemariah, wen natul Shaphan mwet sim lun inkul lun tokosra. Infukil se inge oan lucng, apkuran nu ke acn in utyak lun Mutunpot Sasu lun Tempul.
11 And I will devise for you a device of peace, and not evil, to bestow upon you these [good things].
Micaiah, wen natul Gemariah su ma natul Shaphan, el lohng ke Baruch el riti kas nukewa lun LEUM GOD ma simla in book limlim sac.
12 And do you pray to me, and I will listen to you: and do you earnestly seek me, and you shall find me;
Na el som nu inkul fulat sin tokosra, nu infukil sin mwet sim lun tokosra, yen mwet leum nukewa tukeni we. Elishama, su mwet sim lun tokosra, Delaiah wen natul Shemaiah, Elnathan wen natul Achbor, Gemariah wen natul Shaphan, Zedekiah wen natul Hananiah, ac mwet leum saya nukewa elos oasr we.
13 for you shall seek me with your whole heart.
Micaiah el fahkang nu selos ma nukewa ma el lohng Baruch el riti nu sin mwet uh.
14 And I will appear to you:
Na mwet leum elos supwalla Jehudi (wen natul Nethaniah, su ma natul Shelemiah, su ma natul Cushi) in fahk nu sel Baruch elan use book limlim se ma el tuh riti nu sin mwet ah. Na Baruch el use book limlim sac nu yorolos.
15 whereas you said, The Lord has appointed for us prophets in Babylon:
Na elos fahk, “Fahsru muta, ac riti book limlim sacn nu sesr.” Na Baruch el riti nu selos.
Tukun el riti tari, elos ngetani nu sin sie sin sie ke lut ac fosrnga, ac elos fahk nu sel Baruch, “Kut enenu in fahkang ma inge nu sel tokosra.”
Na elos siyuk sel Baruch, “Fahk nu sesr lah fuka tuh kom simusla ma inge nukewa? Ya Jeremiah pa fahkot ma kom in simis uh?”
Baruch el topuk, “Jeremiah el fahk kas inge nukewa nu sik, na nga simusla ke ink nu in book limlim se inge.”
Na elos fahk nu sel, “Kom ac Jeremiah enenu in som wikla. Taran mwet in tia etu yen komtal wikla we.”
Mwet leum elos filiya book limlim sac infukil sel Elishama, mwet sim lun tokosra, na elos som nu inkalkal lun tokosra, ac srumunang ma inge nukewa nu sel.
21 Thus says the Lord concerning Achiab, and concerning Sedekias; Behold, I [will] deliver them into the hands of the king of Babylon; and he shall strike them in your sight.
Na tokosra el supwalla Jehudi elan use book limlim sac. El som use liki infukil sel Elishama ac riti nu sel tokosra ac mwet leum nukewa su tu raunella.
22 And they shall make of them a curse in all the captivity of Juda in Babylon, saying, The Lord do to you as he did to Sedekias, and as he did to Achiab, whom the king of Babylon fried in the fire;
Pacl sac pacl in mihsrisr, ouinge tokosra el muta sisken e se ke nien ta e in lohm se el muta we ke pacl in mihsrisr.
23 because of the iniquity which they wrought in Israel, and [because] they committed adultery with the wives of their fellow-citizens; and spoke a word in my name, which I did not command them [to speak], and I am witness, says the Lord.
Tukunna Jehudi el ritela tak tolkwe ku akosr kac, na tokosra el sang mitmit srisrik se supukla ac sisang nu in e sac. El sipik, na firri, nwe ke na lisr book limlim sac.
24 And to Samaeas the Aelamite you shall say,
Tokosra ac mwet leum lal nukewa su lohng ma ritiyuk inge tiana luman sangeng ku oela kutu srisrik.
25 I sent you not in my name: and to Sophonias the priest the son of Maasaeas say you,
Elnathan, Delaiah, ac Gemariah nwe kwafe sel tokosra elan tia isik book limlim sac, a el tiana lohngoltal.
26 The Lord has made you priest in the place of Jodae the priest, to be ruler in the house of the Lord over every prophet, and to every madman, and you shall put them in prison, and into the dungeon.
Toko el sapkin Fisrak Jerahmeel, welul Seraiah wen natul Azriel, ac Shelemiah wen natul Abdeel, in sruokyuwi ac Baruch mwet sim luk. Tusruktu LEUM GOD El wikinkutla.
27 And now therefore have you reviled together Jeremias of Anathoth, who prophesied to you?
Tukun Tokosra Jehoiakim el esukak book limlim se ma nga sap Baruch elan simusla kas nukewa nga fahk nu sel, na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik
28 Did he not send for this purpose? for in the course of this month he sent to you to Babylon, saying, It is far off: build you houses, and inhabit [them]; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
ngan eis sie pac book limlim, ac simusla kas nukewa ma oan in book se meet ah.
29 And Sophonias read the book in the ears of Jeremias.
LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sik in fahk nu sel tokosra, “Kom esukak book limlim sac, ac kom tuh siyuk sel Jeremiah lah efu ku el simusla mu tokosra lun Babylonia ac tuku ac kunausla facl se inge ac onela mwet fac wi pac ma orakrak.
30 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying,
Ke ma inge, Tokosra Jehoiakim, nga, LEUM GOD, fahk nu sum lah wangin sin fwilin tulik nutum ac fah leum fin tokosrai lal David. Mano misa lom ac fah sisila in oan ye fol lun faht ke len, ac ye ohu lun fong uh.
31 Send to the captivity, saying, Thus says the Lord concerning Samaeas the Aelamite, Since Samaeas has prophesied to you, and I sent him not, and he has made you to trust in iniquity,
Nga fah kalyei kom ac fwilin tulik nutum ac mwet leum lom, ke sripen orekma koluk nukewa kowos oru. Kowos, oayapa mwet Jerusalem ac mwet Judah, tiana porongo kas in sensenkakin luk nu suwos. Ouinge nga fah use nu fowos nukewa mwe ongoiya ma nga fahk tari mu nga ac oru.”
32 therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, I will visit Samaeas, and his family: and there shall not be a man of them in the midst of you to see the good which I will do to you: they shall not see [it].
Na nga eis sie pac book limlim ac sang nu sel Baruch mwet sim luk, ac el simusla kas nukewa ma nga fahk nu sel. El simusla ma nukewa ma tuh oan in book limlim se ma Tokosra Jehoiakim el tuh esukak, wi pac kutu kas ma nga sang laesla.
