Jeremiah 37
1 And king Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon having made him king in the land of Judah.
Sedekiah ọmọ Josiah sì jẹ ọba ní ipò Jehoiakini ọmọ Jehoiakimu ẹni tí Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli fi jẹ ọba ní ilẹ̀ Juda.
2 And neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land, hearkened unto the words of Jehovah, which he had spoken through the prophet Jeremiah.
Ṣùgbọ́n àti òun àti àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ àti àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà kò fetísí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ó sọ nípa wòlíì Jeremiah.
3 And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Pray now unto Jehovah our God for us.
Sedekiah ọba sì rán Jehukali ọmọ Ṣelemiah àti Sefaniah ọmọ Maaseiah sí Jeremiah wòlíì wí pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ gbàdúrà sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa fún wa.”
4 And Jeremiah came in and went out among the people; for they had not put him into prison.
Nígbà yìí Jeremiah sì ń wọlé, ó sì ń jáde láàrín àwọn ènìyàn nítorí wọ́n ti fi sínú túbú.
5 And Pharaoh's army was come forth out of Egypt; and when the Chaldeans that besieged Jerusalem heard tidings of them, they went up from Jerusalem.
Àwọn ọmọ-ogun Farao ti jáde kúrò nílẹ̀ Ejibiti àti nígbà tí àwọn ará Babeli tó ń ṣàtìpó ní Jerusalẹmu gbọ́ ìròyìn nípa wọn, wọ́n kúrò ní Jerusalẹmu.
6 And the word of Jehovah came unto Jeremiah the prophet, saying,
Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Jeremiah wòlíì Ọlọ́run wá:
7 Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: Thus shall ye say to the king of Judah, that sent you unto me to inquire of me: Behold, Pharaoh's army, which is come forth to help you, shall return to Egypt into their own land.
“Èyí ni, ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn Israẹli sọ fún ọba àwọn Juda tó rán ọ láti wádìí nípa mi. ‘Àwọn ọmọ-ogun Farao tó jáde láti kún ọ lọ́wọ́ yóò padà sílẹ̀ wọn sí Ejibiti.
8 And the Chaldeans shall come again, and fight against this city, and take it, and burn it with fire.
Nígbà náà ni àwọn ará Babeli yóò padà láti gbógun ti ìlú. Wọn yóò mú wọn nígbèkùn, wọn yóò sì fi iná jó ìlú náà kanlẹ̀.’
9 Thus saith Jehovah: Deceive not yourselves, saying, The Chaldeans are certainly gone away from us; for they are not gone.
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, ẹ má ṣe tan ara yín jẹ ní èrò wí pé, ‘Àwọn ará Babeli yóò fi wá sílẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìdánilójú.’ Wọn kò ní ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.
10 For though ye had smitten the whole army of the Chaldeans that fight against you, and there remained [but] wounded men among them, [yet] should they rise up every man in his tent, and burn this city with fire.
Kódà tó bá ṣe pé wọn yóò ṣẹ́gun àwọn ọmọ-ogun Babeli tí ń gbóguntì yín àti àwọn tí ìjàǹbá ṣe, tí wọ́n ti fi sílẹ̀ ní ibùdó wọn; wọn yóò jáde láti jó ìlú náà kanlẹ̀.”
11 And it came to pass when the army of the Chaldeans was gone up from Jerusalem because of Pharaoh's army,
Lẹ́yìn tí àwọn ọmọ-ogun Babeli ti kúrò ní Jerusalẹmu nítorí àwọn ọmọ-ogun Farao.
12 that Jeremiah went forth out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, to have his portion there among the people.
Jeremiah múra láti fi ìlú náà sílẹ̀, láti lọ sí olú ìlú Benjamini láti gba ẹ̀tọ́ rẹ̀ nínú ohun ìní láàrín àwọn ènìyàn tó wà níbẹ̀.
13 And when he was in the gate of Benjamin, a captain of the guard was there whose name was Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah; and he laid hold on the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Thou art deserting to the Chaldeans.
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí wọ́n dé ẹnu ibodè Benjamini, olórí àwọn olùṣọ́ tí orúkọ rẹ ń jẹ́ Irijah ọmọ Ṣelemiah ọmọ Hananiah mú un, ó wí pé, “Ìwọ ń fi ara mọ́ àwọn ará Babeli.”
14 And Jeremiah said, It is false: I am not deserting to the Chaldeans. But he hearkened not to him; and Irijah laid hold on Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes.
Jeremiah sọ wí pé, “Èyí kì í ṣe òtítọ́! Èmi kò yapa sí àwọn ará Babeli.” Ṣùgbọ́n Irijah ko gbọ́ tirẹ̀, dípò èyí a mú Jeremiah, ó sì mú un lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ìjòyè.
15 And the princes were wroth with Jeremiah, and smote him, and put him in the place of confinement in the house of Jonathan the scribe: for they had made that the prison.
Nítorí náà ni àwọn ìjòyè ṣe bínú sí Jeremiah, wọ́n jẹ ẹ́ ní yà, wọ́n tún fi sí túbú nílé Jonatani akọ̀wé nítorí wọ́n ti fi èyí ṣe ilé túbú.
16 When Jeremiah was come into the dungeon and into the vaults, and Jeremiah had remained there many days,
Wọ́n fi Jeremiah sínú túbú tí ó ṣókùnkùn biribiri; níbi tí ó wà fún ìgbà pípẹ́.
17 king Zedekiah sent and took him out. And the king asked of him secretly in his house, and said, Is there any word from Jehovah? And Jeremiah said, There is; and he said, Thou shalt be given into the hand of the king of Babylon.
Nígbà náà ni ọba Sedekiah ránṣẹ́ sí i, tí ó sì pàṣẹ pé kí wọ́n mú wá sí ààfin níbi tí ó ti bi í ní ìkọ̀kọ̀ pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ọ̀rọ̀ kan wà láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa?” Jeremiah fèsì pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, wọn ó fi ọ́ lé ọwọ́ ọba Babeli.”
18 And Jeremiah said unto king Zedekiah, What have I offended against thee, or against thy servants, or against this people, that ye have put me in the prison?
Nígbà náà, Jeremiah sọ fún ọba Sedekiah pé, “Irú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wo ni mo ṣẹ̀ yín, àwọn ìjòyè yín pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn tí ẹ fi sọ mí sínú túbú?
19 And where are your prophets that prophesied unto you, saying, The king of Babylon shall not come against you, nor against this land?
Níbo ni àwọn wòlíì yín tí wọ́n ń sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ fún un yín wí pé ọba Babeli kò ní gbóguntì yín wá?
20 And now hear, I pray thee, my lord, O king: let my supplication, I pray thee, come before thee; and cause me not to return into the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there.
Ṣùgbọ́n ní báyìí, olúwa mi ọba, èmí bẹ̀ ọ. Jẹ́ kí n mú ẹ̀dùn ọkàn mi tọ̀ ọ́ wá; má ṣe rán mi padà sí ilé Jonatani akọ̀wé, àfi kí n kú síbẹ̀.”
21 Then Zedekiah the king commanded, and they committed Jeremiah into the court of the guard, and they gave him daily a loaf of bread out of the bakers' street, until all the bread in the city was spent. And Jeremiah abode in the court of the guard.
Ọba Sedekiah wá pàṣẹ pé kí wọ́n fi Jeremiah sínú àgbàlá àwọn ẹ̀ṣọ́, àti kí wọn sì fún ní àkàrà ní ọjọ́ kọ̀ọ̀kan títí tí àkàrà tó wà ní ìlú yóò fi tán; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jeremiah wà nínú àgbàlá náà.
