Jeremiah 36
1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, [that] this word came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
Le Yuda fia, Yehoyakim, Yosia ƒe vi ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe enelia me la, Yehowa ƒe nya sia va na Yeremia be,
2 Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spoke unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day.
“Tsɔ lãgbalẽ nàŋlɔ nu siwo katã megblɔ na wò tso Israel, Yuda kple dukɔ bubuwo ŋuti la ɖe edzi. Ŋlɔe tso gbe si gbe medze nuƒoƒo kpli wò le Yosia ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo me dzi va se ɖe fifia.
3 It may be the house of Judah will hear all the evil that I purpose to do unto them, that they may return every man from his evil way, and that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
Ɖewohĩ ne Yudatɔwo ase gbegblẽ siwo katã meɖo be mahe va wo dzii la, wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe atrɔ tso eƒe mɔ vɔ̃ dzi; ekema matsɔ woƒe nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔwɔwo kple nu vɔ̃ ake wo.”
4 And Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Nerijah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of Jehovah, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book.
Tete Yeremia yɔ Neria ƒe vi, Baruk eye esi Yeremia le nya siwo katã Yehowa gblɔ nɛ la gblɔm la Baruk ŋlɔ wo katã ɖe lãgbalẽ la dzi.
5 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up, I cannot go into the house of Jehovah; but go thou in,
Yeremia gblɔ na Baruk be, “Mele ga me eya ta nyemate ŋu ayi ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me o.
6 and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of Jehovah in the ears of the people in the house of Jehovah upon the fast day; and thou shalt also read them in the ears of all Judah that come from their cities.
Eya ta wò, yi ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me le nutsitsidɔ ŋkeke aɖe dzi eye nàxlẽ Yehowa ƒe nya siwo megblɔ na wò nèŋlɔ la na wo. Xlẽe na Yudatɔ siwo katã tso woƒe du vovovowo me va.
7 It may be they will present their supplication before Jehovah, and that they will return every one from his evil way; for great is the anger and the fury that Jehovah hath pronounced against this people.
Ɖewohĩ woabɔbɔ wo ɖokui kple kokoƒoƒo le Yehowa ŋkume eye woatrɔ tso woƒe mɔ vɔ̃wo dzi elabena dziku kple dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ si Yehowa gblɔ ɖi tso ame siawo ŋuti la lolo ŋutɔ.”
8 And Baruch the son of Nerijah did according to all that the prophet Jeremiah commanded him, reading in the book the words of Jehovah in Jehovah's house.
Neria ƒe vi, Baruk wɔ nu siwo katã Nyagblɔɖila Yeremia gblɔ nɛ be wòawɔ. Le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me la, exlẽ Yehowa ƒe nya na wo tso lãgbalẽ la me.
9 And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, in the ninth month, [that] they proclaimed a fast before Jehovah, for all the people in Jerusalem, and for all the people that came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem.
Le Yuda fia, Yehoyakim, Yosia ƒe vi, ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe atɔ̃lia ƒe ɣleti asiekɛlia me la, woɖe gbeƒã nutsitsidɔ le Yehowa ŋkume na Yerusalemtɔwo kple ame siwo katã tso Yuda ƒe duwo me va.
10 And Baruch read in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of Jehovah, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the upper court, at the entry of the new gate of the house of Jehovah, in the ears of all the people.
Tso Safan ƒe vi, Gemaria, agbalẽŋlɔla ƒe xɔ si le xɔxɔnu dzigbetɔ si le gbedoxɔ ƒe Agboyeyea nu me la, Baruk xlẽ Yeremia ƒe nya siwo le lãgbalẽ la dzi la na ame siwo katã le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me.
11 And Micah the son of Gemariah the son of Shaphan heard out of the book all the words of Jehovah;
Esi Mikaya, Gemaria ƒe vi, Safan ƒe vi la se Yehowa ƒe nya siwo katã woŋlɔ ɖe lãgbalẽ la dzi la,
12 and he went down to the king's house, into the scribe's chamber, and behold, all the princes were sitting there: Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
eɖiɖi yi ɖe agbalẽŋlɔla ƒe xɔ si le fiasã me la me, afi si dumegãwo ƒo ta kpli ɖe aɖaŋu me le. Woawoe nye: nuŋlɔla, Elisama, Delaya; Semaya ƒe vi, Elnatan, Akbor ƒe vi; Gemaria, Safan ƒe vi; Zedekia, Hananiya ƒe vi kple dumegã bubuwo katã.
13 And Micah declared unto them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read in the book in the ears of the people.
Esi Mikaya gblɔ nu siwo katã Baruk xlẽ na ameawo tso lãgbalẽ la me la,
14 And all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thy hand the roll in which thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. And Baruch the son of Nerijah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.
dumegãwo katã dɔ Yehudi, Netania ƒe vi, Selemia ƒe vi, Kusi ƒe vi ɖo ɖe Baruk be woagblɔ nɛ be, “Tsɔ lãgbalẽ si me nèxlẽ nu le na dukɔ la, ne nàva.” Tete Neria ƒe vi, Baruk, yi wo gbɔ kple lãgbalẽ la.
15 And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. And Baruch read [it] in their ears.
Wogblɔ nɛ be, “Míeɖe kuku nɔ anyi, ne nàxlẽe na mí.” Tete Baruk xlẽe na wo.
16 And it came to pass, when they heard all the words, they turned in fear one toward another, and said unto Baruch, We will certainly report to the king all these words.
Esi wose nya siawo katã la, vɔvɔ̃ ɖo wo eye wode asi wo nɔewo ƒe ŋkume kpɔkpɔ me kple vɔvɔ̃ eye wogblɔ na Baruk be, “Ele be nàka nya siawo ta na fia la.”
17 And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words from his mouth?
Tete wobia Baruk be, “Gblɔe na mi, aleke nèwɔ ŋlɔ nu siawo? Yeremiae gblɔ wo na wòa?”
18 And Baruch said unto them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, and I wrote [them] with ink in the book.
Baruk ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, eyae gblɔ nya siawo katã nam eye metsɔ nuŋlɔtsi ŋlɔe ɖe lãgbalẽ la dzi.”
19 And the princes said unto Baruch, Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah; that none may know where ye are.
Dumegãwo gblɔ na Baruk be, “Wò kple Yeremia, miyi miaɣla mia ɖokui. Migana ame aɖeke nanya afi si miele o.”
20 And they went in unto the king into the court, but they laid up the roll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe; and they told all the words in the ears of the king.
Esi wotsɔ lãgbalẽ la da ɖe agbalẽŋlɔla Elisama ƒe xɔ me vɔ la, woyi ɖe fia la gbɔ le xɔxɔnu eye wogblɔ nya ɖe sia ɖe nɛ.
21 And the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll, and he fetched it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes that stood beside the king.
Fia la dɔ Yehudi be wòaɖatsɔ lãgbalẽ la vɛ. Yehudi yi ɖatsɔe le agbalẽŋlɔla Elisama ƒe xɔ me eye wòxlẽe na fia la kple eƒe dumegã siwo katã le tsitre ɖe exa.
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter-house in the ninth month, and with the fire-pan burning before him.
Enye ɣleti asiekɛlia eye fia la nɔ anyi ɖe eƒe vuvɔŋɔlixɔ me eye wodo dzo ɖe ze me da ɖe eƒe akɔme.
23 And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four columns, he cut it with the scribe's knife, and cast it into the fire that was in the pan until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was in the pan.
Ne Yehudi xlẽ lãgbalẽ la fli etɔ̃ alo ene ko la, fia la tsɔa agbalẽŋlɔlawo ƒe hɛ lãnɛ ɖa hetsɔna ƒua gbe ɖe dzo si le ekɔme la me. Ewɔe alea va se ɖe esime wòtsɔ lãgbalẽ la katã de dzo me.
24 And they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, [neither] the king nor any of his servants that heard all these words.
Fia la kple eŋutime siwo katã se agbalẽ la me nyawo la meɖe vɔvɔ̃ aɖeke fia alo dze awu le wo ɖokuiwo ŋuti o.
25 Moreover, Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the roll; but he would not hear them.
Togbɔ be Elnatan, Delaya kple Gemaria ƒoe ɖe fia la nu be megade lãgbalẽ la dzo me o hã la, edo toku wo.
26 And the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but Jehovah hid them.
Le esia teƒe boŋ la, fia la ɖe gbe be Yerameel, via ŋutsuwo dometɔ ɖeka, Seraya, Azriel ƒe vi kple Selemia, Abdeel ƒe vi, woayi aɖalé Baruk, agbalẽŋlɔla kple Yeremia, nyagblɔɖila la vɛ, ke Yehowa tsɔ wo ɣla.
27 And after that the king had burned the roll, and the words that Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
Esi fia la tɔ dzo lãgbalẽ si dzi Baruk ŋlɔ nya siwo katã Yeremia gblɔ nɛ ɖo la, Yehowa ƒe nya va na Yeremia be:
28 Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.
“Tsɔ lãgbalẽ bubu, eye nàŋlɔ nya siwo katã nɔ gbãtɔ dzi la ɖe edzi, nya siwo ke Yuda fia Yehoyakim tɔ dzoe.
29 And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thus saith Jehovah: Thou hast burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from it man and beast?
Gawu la, gblɔ na Yuda fia Yehoyakim be, ‘Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: Ètɔ dzo lãgbalẽ ma, hegblɔ be, “Nu ka ta nèŋlɔ ɖe edzi be Babilonia fia ava kokoko agblẽ anyigba sia eye wòatsrɔ̃ amegbetɔwo kple lãwo siaa ɖa le edzi?”
30 Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David; and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
Eya ta ale Yehowa gblɔ ɖe Yuda fia Yehoyakim ŋutie nye si: Ame aɖeke masusɔ nɛ, si anɔ David ƒe fiazikpui dzi o, woatsɔ eƒe ŋutilã kukua aƒu gbe ɖe gota, eye ŋdɔkutsu aɖui le ŋkeke me eye ahũ aƒoe le zã me.
31 And I will visit their iniquity upon him, and upon his seed, and upon his servants; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; and they have not hearkened.
Mahe to na eya kple viawo kple eƒe dɔlawo katã le woƒe vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖi ta. Mahe gbegblẽ ɖe sia ɖe si megblɔ ɖi la va wo, ame siwo le Yerusalem kple Yudatɔwo dzii, elabena womeɖo to o.’”
32 And Jeremiah took another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Nerijah; and he wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the book that Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and there were added besides unto them many like words.
Ale Yeremia tsɔ lãgbalẽ bubu na Neria ƒe vi, Baruk, agbalẽŋlɔla la, eye esi Yeremia le nyawo gblɔm la, Baruk ŋlɔ nya siwo katã Yuda fia, Yehoyakim tɔ dzoe le gbãtɔ dzi la ɖe edzi. Wotsɔ nya siwo le abe gbãtɔ ene la kpe ɖe nyawo ŋuti.
