Jeremiah 28
1 And it happened in that year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah, the king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananiah, the son of Azur, the prophet from Gibeon, spoke to me, in the house of the Lord, in the sight of the priests and all the people, saying:
Eva eme le ɣleti atɔ̃lia me le ƒe ma ke me, esi nye ƒe enelia le Yuda fia Zedekia ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe gɔmedzedzea me be Nyagblɔɖila Hananiya, Azur ƒe vi si tso Gibeon gblɔ nam le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me le nunɔlawo kple ameha la katã ŋkume be,
2 “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
“Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: ‘Mele Babilonia fia ƒe kɔkuti la ŋe ge.
3 There are still two years of days, and then I will cause to be carried back to this place all the vessels of the house of the Lord that Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, took from this place and carried away to Babylon.
Le ƒe eve megbe la, matrɔ nu siwo Babilonia fia, Nebukadnezar lɔ le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me tsɔ yi Babilonia la vɛ.
4 And I will return to this place: Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, and all those taken captive from Judah, who were brought into Babylon, says the Lord. For I will crush the yoke of the king of Babylon.”
Makplɔ Yuda fia Yehoyatsin, Yehoyakim ƒe vi agbɔ va teƒe sia, hekpe ɖe Yudatɔ siwo katã woɖe aboyoe yi ɖe Babilonia la ŋuti, elabena maŋe Babilonia fia ƒe kɔkuti.’” Yehowae gblɔe.
5 And Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Hananiah the prophet, before the eyes of the priests and before the eyes of all the people who were standing in the house of the Lord.
Tete Nyagblɔɖila Yeremia ɖo nya la ŋu na Nyagblɔɖila Hananiya le nunɔlaawo kple ame siwo katã nɔ tsitre ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me.
6 And Jeremiah the prophet said: “Amen, may the Lord accomplish this; may the Lord act upon your words, which you have prophesied, so that the vessels may be carried back to the house of the Lord, and so that all those taken captive may return from Babylon to this place.
Egblɔ be, “Amen! Yehowa nena wòava eme nenema! Yehowa nena wò nyagblɔɖi la nava eme be woagbugbɔ nu siwo katã wolɔ le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me kple aboyome siwo wokplɔ yi Babilonia la natrɔ gbɔ.
7 Yet truly, listen to this word, which I am speaking to your ears and to the ears of all the people.
Ke hã la, ɖo to nàse nya siwo ku ge mala ɖe to me na wò kple ame siwo le teƒe sia.
8 The prophets, who were before me and before you, from the beginning, have prophesied over many lands and over great kingdoms, about war, and about affliction, and about famine.
Tsã la, nyagblɔɖila siwo do ŋgɔ na nye kple wò la gblɔ aʋawɔwɔ, gbegblẽ kple dɔvɔ̃ ƒe nyawo ɖi ɖe dukɔ geɖewo kple fiaɖuƒe geɖewo ŋuti.
9 The prophet who has predicted peace, if his word will occur, then the prophet will be known as one whom the Lord has sent in truth.”
Gake nyagblɔɖila si gblɔ ŋutifafanya aɖe, eye eƒe nyagblɔɖi la va eme la koe wobuna be enye ame si Yehowa dɔ vavã.”
10 And Hananiah the prophet took the chain from the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, and he broke it.
Kasia Nyagblɔɖila Hananiya ɖe kɔkuti la le kɔ na Nyagblɔɖila Yeremia eye wòŋee.
11 And Hananiah spoke in the sight of all the people, saying: “Thus says the Lord: So shall I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, after two years of days, from the neck of all the people.”
Egblɔ le ameawo ƒe ŋkume be, “Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Aleae maŋe Babilonia fia Nebukadnezar ƒe kɔkuti le kɔe na dukɔwo katã le ƒe eve me.’” Le esia megbe la, Nyagblɔɖila Yeremia lé eƒe mɔ hedzo.
12 And Jeremiah the prophet went his own way. And after Hananiah the prophet had broken the chain from the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying:
Le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe megbe, esi Nyagblɔɖila Hananiya ŋe kɔkuti le kɔ na Nyagblɔɖila Yeremia megbe la, Yehowa ƒe nya va na Yeremia be,
13 “Go, and you shall say to Hananiah: Thus says the Lord: You have broken chains of wood, and so you will make for them chains of iron.
“Yi nàgblɔ na Hananiya be ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Èŋe atikɔkuti, gake le eteƒe la, woatsɔ gakɔkuti ana wo.
14 For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: I have placed a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations, so that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon. And they shall serve him. Moreover, I have given to him even the beasts of the earth.”
Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔ ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: “Matsɔ gakɔkuti aku kɔ na dukɔwo katã be woasubɔ Babilonia fia Nebukadnezar eye woazu subɔlawo nɛ. Mana ŋusẽe ɖe lã wɔadãwo gɔ̃ hã dzi.”’”
15 And Jeremiah the prophet said to Hananiah the prophet: “Listen, Hananiah! The Lord has not sent you, and so you have caused this people to trust in a lie.
Tete Nyagblɔɖila Yeremia gblɔ na Hananiya nyagblɔɖila la be, “Ɖo to afii, Hananiya! Yehowa medɔ wò o, evɔ nèƒoe ɖe dukɔ sia nu be wòaxɔ aʋatsonyawo dzi ase.
16 For this reason, thus says the Lord: Behold, I will send you away from the face of the earth. This year, you shall die. For you have spoken against the Lord.”
Eya ta ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Mele ɖe wò ge ɖa le anyigba dzi. Àku le ƒe sia me, elabena ègblɔ aglãdzedze ɖe Yehowa ŋu ƒe nya.’”
17 And Hananiah the prophet died in that year, in the seventh month.
Le ɣleti adrelia me le ƒe ma me la, Nyagblɔɖila Hananiya ku.
