< Jeremiah 43 >
1 And it came to pass, that when Jeremias had made an end of speaking to the people all the words of the Lord their God, for which the Lord their God had sent him to them, all these words:
Erga Ermiyaas dubbii Waaqayyo Waaqa isaanii kan Waaqayyo akka inni nama hundatti himuuf isa erge sana dubbatee fixee booddee,
2 Azarias the son of Osaias, and Johanan the son of Caree, and all the proud men, made answer, saying to Jeremias: Thou tellest a lie: the Lord our God hath not sent thee, saying: Go not into Egypt, to dwell there.
Azaariyaa ilmi Hooshaʼiyaa, Yoohaanaan ilmi Qaareyaatii fi namoonni of tuulan hundi Ermiyaasiin akkana jedhan; “Ati ni sobda! Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya akka ati, ‘Isin achi jiraachuuf jettanii biyya Gibxi dhaquu hin qabdan’ jettuuf si hin ergine.
3 But Baruch the son of Nerias setteth thee on against us, to deliver us into the hands of the Chaldeans, to kill us, and to cause us to be carried away captives to Babylon.
Baaruk ilmi Neeriyaa garuu akka ati akka isaan nu fixaniif yookaan boojiʼanii Baabilonitti nu geessaniif dabarsitee harka Baabilonotaatti nu kennituuf si kakaasaa jira.”
4 So Johanan the son of Caree, and all the captains of the soldiers, and all the people, obeyed not the voice of the Lord, to remain in the land of Juda.
Kanaafuu Yoohaanaan ilmi Qaareyaatii fi ajajjoonni waraanaa hundii fi sabni hundi ajaja Waaqayyo akka isaan biyya Yihuudaa turaniif kenneef sana didan.
5 But Johanan the son of Caree, and all the captains of the soldiers took all the remnant of Juda, that were returned out of all nations, to which they had before been scattered, to dwell in the land of Juda:
Qooda kanaa Yoohaanaan ilmi Qaareyaatii fi ajajjoonni waraanaa hundi hambaa Yihuudaa kanneen biyyoota itti bibittinneeffaman hunda keessaa deebiʼanii biyya Yihuudaa keessa jiraachuuf dhufan hunda fudhatanii deeman.
6 Men, and women, and children, and the king’s daughters, and every soul, which Nabuzardan the general had left with Godolias the son of Ahicam the son of Saphan, and Jeremias the prophet, and Baruch the son of Nerias.
Akkasumas dhiiraa dubartii, ijoollee fi intallan mootii kanneen Nebuzaradaan ajajaan eegumsaa sun Gedaaliyaas ilma Ahiiqaam, ilma Shaafaan, Ermiyaas raajichaa fi Baaruk ilma Neeriyaa biratti dhiise sana hunda fudhatanii deeman.
7 And they went Into the land of Egypt, for they obeyed not the voice of the Lord: and they came as far as Taphnis.
Isaanis akkasiin Waaqayyoof ajajamuu diduudhaan biyya Gibxitti galanii hamma Tahiphaanhees keessa lixan.
8 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias in Taphnis, saying:
Tahiphaanheesittis dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara Ermiyaas dhufe:
9 Take great stones in thy hand, and thou shalt hide them in the vault that is under the brick wall at the gate of Pharao’s house in Taphnis: in the sight of the men of Juda.
“Dhagaa gurguddaa guuriitii balbala masaraa Faraʼoon kan Tahiphaanhees jiru sanaa biratti utuma Yihuudoonni ilaalanuu afaa suphee keessatti awwaali.
10 And thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will send, and take Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon my servant: and I will set his throne over these stones which I have hid, and he shall set his throne over them.
Ergasii akkana isaaniin jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: Ani tajaajilaa koo Nebukadnezar mooticha Baabilonitti nama ergee nan waama; teessoo isaa illee dhagaa asitti awwaale kana irra nan dhaaba; innis dunkaana mootummaa ofii isaa isa irratti ni diriirfata.
11 And he shall come and strike the land of Egypt: such as are for death, to death: and such as are for captivity, to captivity: and such as are for the sword, to the sword.
Inni dhufee Gibxin ni lola; warra duʼaaf ramadamanitti duʼa, warra boojuuf ramadamanitti boojuu, warra goraadeef ramadamanitti goraadee ni fida.
12 And he shall kindle a fire in the temples of the gods of Egypt, and he shall burn them, and he shall carry them away captives: and he shall array himself with the land of Egypt, as a shepherd putteth on his garment: and he shall go forth from thence in peace.
Inni manneen waaqeffannaa waaqota Gibxitti ibidda qabsiisa; manneen waaqeffannaa isaanii gubee waaqota isaanii tolfamoo illee boojiʼa. Akkuma Tikeen tokko wayyaa marxifattu sana innis biyya Gibxi marxifatee nagumaanis achii deema.
13 And he shall break the statues of the house of the sun, that are in the land of Egypt; and the temples of the gods of Egypt he shall burn with fire.
Inni achuma galma waaqeffannaa aduu biyya Gibxi keessatti utuboota waaqeffannaa caccabsee galma waaqeffannaa waaqota Gibxii illee ni guba.’”
