Jeremiah 32
1 This is the Lord's message that came to Jeremiah in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah's reign, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar's reign.
LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik in yac se aksingoul ke Zedekiah el tokosra lun Judah, su pa yac aksingoul oalkosr ke Nebuchadnezzar el tokosra lun Babylonia.
2 This was when the army of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem. Jeremiah the prophet was imprisoned in the guard's courtyard, part of the king of Judah's palace.
In pacl sac, un mwet mweun lun tokosra lun Babylonia elos kuhlusya acn Jerusalem, ac nga kauli in kalkal lun mwet san inkul sin tokosra.
3 Zedekiah king of Judah had put him in prison, telling him: “Why do you have to prophesy like this? You say the Lord is saying, ‘Look, I'm going to hand over this city to the king of Babylon, and he will capture it.
Tokosra Zedekiah el kaliyuwi we ke sripen nga fahkak mu LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fah lela tokosra Babylonia in sruokya siti se inge,
4 Zedekiah king of Judah won't escape from the Babylonians. He will be captured and taken to the king of Babylon to speak with him personally and see him face to face.
ac Tokosra Zedekiah el fah tia ku in kaingla. Ac fah itukyang el nu inpoun tokosra Babylonia. Eltal fah ngetani sie sin sie, ac sramsram.
5 He will take Zedekiah to Babylon, where he'll remain until I deal with him, declares the Lord. You won't be successful if you fight against the Babylonians.’”
Ac fah utukla Zedekiah nu Babylonia, ac el fah mutana we nwe ke nga sulela ma fal in orek nu sel. El finne mweuni mwet Babylonia, el ac fah tiana kutangla. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
6 Jeremiah answered, “The Lord gave me a message, saying:
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik lah
7 Your cousin Hanamel, son of Shallum, is coming to tell you, ‘Why don't you buy my field in Anathoth because you have the right to redeem it and buy it?’
Hanamel, wen natul Shallum su matu lukel papa, el ac tuku nu yuruk ac siyuk nga in molela ima se lal in acn Anathoth in facl sin Benjamin, mweyen nga pa sou fototo oemeet nu sel, ac oasr suwohs luk in molela ima sac luk.
8 Just as the Lord had said, my cousin Hanamel arrived to see me in the guard's courtyard and asked me, ‘Please buy my field in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin because you have the right of family ownership to redeem it. You should buy it for yourself.’” This convinced me that this was a message from the Lord.
Na oana ke LEUM GOD El fahk ah, Hanamel el tuku nu yuruk ke inkul lun tokosra, ac siyuk ngan molela ima sac. Ke ma inge nga etu lah pwaye LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik.
9 So I bought the field in Anathoth from my cousin Hanamel. I weighed out seventeen shekels of silver to pay him.
Na nga molela ima sac sel Hanamel, ac pauniya molo ah, su oasr ke ipin silver singoul itkosr.
10 I signed the deed and sealed it, had it witnessed, and weighed out the silver using the scales.
Nga sainiya inek ke pwepu in kuka acn, ac siliya ye mutun mwet loh, na nga pauniya molo ah ke mwe paun.
11 Then I took the deed of sale, both the sealed original containing the terms and conditions, and the unsealed copy,
Nga eis pwepu luo ma simla oakwuk nukewa ke acn kukala sac — sie oasr sil kac, ac sie wangin sil kac —
12 and handed them to Baruch son of Neriah, son of Mahseiah. I did this in the presence of my cousin Hanamel, the witnesses who had signed the deed of sale, and all the people of Judah who were sitting there in the guard's courtyard.
ac nga sang pwepu inge nu sel Baruch, wen natul Neriah su ma natul Mahseiah. Nga oru ma inge nukewa ye mutal Hanamel ac ye mutun mwet loh su wi pac sain inelos ke pwepu in kuka sac, oayapa ye mutun mwet su wi muta inkul lun tokosra.
13 I gave Baruch these instructions in front of them,
Ye mutalos nukewa nga fahk nu sel Baruch,
14 “This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Put these deeds of sale, the sealed original and the open copy, in a clay jar so they can be kept safe for a long time.
“LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, El sap kom in eis pwepu inge, kewana ma siliyuki ac ma wangin sil kac, ac in filiya in sie sufa eot tuh in ku in oan kawil nu ke yac puspis fahsru.
15 For this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: The time will come when once again houses, fields, and vineyards will be bought in this country.”
LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, El fahk mu lohm, ima, ac nien grape fah sifilpa kukakinyuk in facl se inge.”
16 After I had given the deed of sale to Baruch son of Neriah, I prayed to the Lord:
Tukun nga sang pwepu in kuka sac nu sel Baruch, na nga pre,
17 “Ah, Lord God! You created the heavens and the earth by your great strength and power. Nothing is too hard for you!
“LEUM GOD Fulatlana, kom orala faclu ac kusrao ke ku lulap lom. Wanginna ma upa nu sum.
18 You give your trustworthy love to thousands, but you punish the sins of the fathers the consequences affect their children too., Great and powerful God whose name is the Lord Almighty,
Kom akkalemye lungse kawil lom nu sin tausin fwil, tusruktu kom oayapa kai mwet ke sripen ma koluk lun papa tumalos ac nina kialos. Kom sie God fulat ac ku. Kom LEUM GOD Kulana.
19 you are the one who is supremely wise and who does incredible things. You watch what everyone does, and you reward them according to the way they live and what their actions deserve.
Kom oru lemlem lalmwetmet ac oru orekma usrnguk ac kulana. Kom liye ma nukewa ma mwet uh oru, ac kom sang nu selos fal nu ke orekma lalos.
20 You carried out signs and miracles in Egypt, and you still do so today, both here in Israel and among all people everywhere. As a result you gained a great reputation, and this is still true today.
Pacl loes somla kom orek mwenmen ac ma usrnguk in acn Egypt, ac kom srakna oru nwe misenge in acn Israel ac inmasrlon mutunfacl saya nukewa. Inge eteyuk kom yen nukewa.
21 You led your people Israel out of Egypt with signs and miracles, with your great power and strength that terrified people.
Ke mwenmen ac usrnguk ma aksangengye mwet lokoalok lasr, kom orekmakin ku lulap lom in use mwet lom liki facl Egypt.
22 You gave them this land that you had promised to give their forefathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Kom sang nu selos acn mut ac kasrup fohk we, oana kom tuh wulela nu sin mwet matu lalos.
23 They came and took it over, but they didn't do what you said or follow your laws. They didn't do everything you ordered them to do, which is why you've brought all this disaster down on them.
Tusruktu ke elos utyak nu in facl se inge ac sruokya tuh in ma lalos, elos tuh tia akos ma sap lom, ku moul fal nu ke mwe luti lom. Elos tia oru kutena ma kom sapkin nu selos, pwanang kom use mwe ongoiya inge nukewa nu faclos.
24 Look at the siege ramps piled up against the city to capture it! Through war and famine and disease, the city will be taken by the Babylonians who are attacking it. You can see that everything you said would happen has happened.
“Liye, mwet Babylonia elos elosak tari acn in fan lalos nu fin pot uh, ac inge elos mweuni. Ke sripen mweun, sracl, ac mas upa, elos ac sruokya siti uh. Kom ku in liye lah ma kom tuh fahk ah nufon akpwayeiyuk.
25 Yet, Lord God, you have told me, ‘Buy yourself the field with silver in front of witnesses, even though the city has been handed over to the Babylonians!’”
Tusruktu, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, kom pa sapkin nga in molela ima sac ye mutun mwet loh, siti uh finne apkuran in sruhu sin mwet Babylonia.”
26 Then Lord gave Jeremiah this message:
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
27 Look! I am the Lord, the God of everyone. Is anything too hard for me to do?
“Nga LEUM GOD, God lun mwet nukewa faclu. Wanginna ma upa nu sik.
28 So this is what the Lord says: Listen! I'm going to hand over this city to the king of Babylon and the Babylonians, and they will capture it.
Nga ac fah sang siti se inge nu inpaol Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia ac un mwet mweun lal. Elos ac sruokya
29 The Babylonians who are attacking the city are going to come and set fire to it. They will burn it down, including the houses belonging to the people who made me angry by burning incense to Baal on their rooftops, and by pouring out drink offerings in worship of other gods.
ac esukak. Elos ac furreak nwe ke apatla, wi pacna lohm ma mwet uh akkasrkusrakyeyu we ke elos esukak mwe keng nu sel Baal fin lohm selos, ac ke elos okoala mwe kisa wain nu sin god saya.
30 From their earliest days all the people of Israel and of Judah have ever done has been evil in my sight. In fact all they've even done is to make me angry through their actions, declares the Lord.
Oe ke mutaweyen sramsram kaclos me, mutunfacl Israel ac Judah elos tiana oru lungse luk, ac elso akkasrkusrakyeyu ke ma elos oru.
31 This city has been such a source of anger and frustration from the time it was built right up till now. So I'm going to get rid of it,
Mwet in siti se inge elos arulana angonyu ac akkasrkusrakyeyu, mutawauk na ke tufahna musaeak siti se inge nwe misenge. Nga wotela ku sik mu nga ac sukela
32 because of all the evil things the people of Israel and Judah did that made me angry—their kings, and officials, their priests and prophets, all of those living in Judah and Jerusalem, everyone
ke sripen ma koluk nukewa ma orekla sin mwet Judah ac Jerusalem, weang pac tokosra, mwet kol, mwet tol, ac mwet palu lalos.
33 They have turned their backs on me. They wouldn't even look at me. Even though I kept on trying to teach them, they refused to listen or accept instruction.
Elos totulikiyula, ac nga nwe kwafeang in lotelos elos tiana porongeyu ku eis mwe luti luk.
34 They have put their disgusting idols in my Temple, making it unclean.
Elos oru nwe ke na elos filiya pac ma sruloala srungayuk lalos uh in Tempul ma musaiyukla tuh in nien alu nu sik, ouinge elos akfohkfokyela.
35 They have built pagan shrines to Baal in the Valley of Hinnom so they could sacrifice their sons and daughters by burning them in the fire. This is something I never commanded. I never even thought of such a thing—doing something so awful and making the people of Judah guilty of sin.
Elos etoak loang nu sel Baal ke Infahlfal Hinnom in kisakin wen ac acn natulos nu sel Molech, god lalos. Nga tiana sapkin elos in oru ma inge, ac nga tia pacna nunku mu elos ac ku in oru ouiya inge, in tuh pwanang mwet Judah elos oru ma koluk.”
36 Now about this city. You are correctly saying, “It's going be handed over to the king of Babylon through war and famine and disease.” However, this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says:
LEUM GOD lun Israel El fahk nu sik, “Jeremiah, mwet uh fahk mu mweun, sracl, ac mas upa ac oru siti se inge in itukyang nu inpoun tokosra lun Babylonia. Inge, porongo pac ma nga ac fahk uh.
37 I promise to gather my people from all the lands where I exiled them because they made me so very angry. I will bring them back here and they will live in safety.
Nga ac fah eisani mwet uh liki mutunfacl nukewa ma nga akfahsryeloselik nu we ke sripen mulat ac kasrkusrak luk, ac nga ac fah folokunulosme nu in acn se inge, ac oru tuh elos in mutana we ac tia fosrnga.
38 They will be my people, and I will be their God.
Elos ac fah mwet luk, ac nga ac fah God lalos.
39 I will make sure they think the same way and act in harmony, so that they will always honor me so all will be good for them and their descendants.
Nga fah sang nu selos sripa sefanna nu ke moul lalos: in akfulatyeyu pacl nukewa, tuh in wo nu selos sifacna ac oayapa nu sin fwilin tulik natulos.
40 I will make an everlasting agreement with them: I'm never going to stop doing them good and I will help them to respect me so that they won't ever abandon me.
Nga fah oru sie wuleang yorolos su ma na nwe tok. Nga fah tiana tui in oru ma wo nu selos, ac nga fah oru elos in sangeng sik ke insialos nufon tuh elos fah tiana sifil forla likiyu.
41 I will be delighted to treat them well, and I will commit myself with the whole of my being to helping them to grow as a nation in this land.
Nga fah arulana insewowo in oru ma wo nu selos, ac nga fah oakelosi in facl se inge nwe tok.
42 This is what the Lord says: Just as certainly as I have brought this whole disaster down on my people, so I'm going to give to them all the good things I have promised.
“In oana ke nga tuh sang mwe ongoiya se inge nu fin mwet inge, nga fah oayapa sang nu selos ma wo nukewa ma nga wulela kac.
43 Fields will once again be bought in this country that you're describing, saying, “It's been completely destroyed—no people or animals are left. It's been handed over to the Babylonians.”
Mwet uh fahk mu acn se inge ac fah oana sie acn mwesis ma wangin mwet ku ma orakrak muta we, ac lah ac mau itukyang nu inpoun mwet Babylonia. Tusruktu acn in ima ac fah sifilpa kukakinyuk ac moliyuk in acn se inge.
44 People will buy fields with silver again, deeds will be signed, sealed, and witnessed. This will happen here in the land of Benjamin, in the areas surrounding Jerusalem, and in all the towns of Judah—including the towns of the hill country, the foothills, and the Negev—because I will bring the people back from exile, declares the Lord.
Mwet uh ac molela acn, ac pwepu kac ac fah sainiyuki ac siliyuki ye mutun mwet loh. Ma inge ac fah orek in facl sin Benjamin, in siti srisrik ma rauneak Jerusalem, inkul srisrik lun Judah, yen tohktok uh, pe eol uh, ac layen eir in Judah. Nga fah folokunla mwet uh nu in facl selos. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
