Jeremiah 34
1 This is the Lord's message that came to Jeremiah when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, all his army, along with troops from all the countries he ruled and other nations were attacking Jerusalem and all its nearby towns:
Daytoy ti sao nga immay kenni Jeremias a naggapu kenni Yahweh. Immay daytoy a sao idi madama a gubgubaten ni Nebucadnesar nga ari ti Babilonia ken amin dagiti armadana, a kadduana dagiti amin a pagarian iti daga, dagiti pagarian nga iturturayanna, ken amin dagiti tattaoda, ti Jerusalem ken amin a siudad daytoy. Kastoy ti ibagbagana,
2 This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Go and talk to Zedekiah king of Judah and tell him that this is what the Lord says: Listen! I am about to hand this city over to the king of Babylon, and he is going to burn it down.
'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel: Mapanmo ibaga kenni Zedekias nga ari ti Juda ket kunam kenkuana, “Kastoy ti ibagbaga ni Yahweh: Kitaem, dandanikon iyawat daytoy a siudad iti ima ti ari ti Babilonia. Puorananto daytoy. Saankanto a makalibas manipud iti imana, ta matiliwka ken maiyawatkanto iti imana.
3 You yourself won't escape being captured by him. You will certainly be taken prisoner and brought before him to speak with him personally and see him face to face. You will be taken to Babylon.
Makitanto dagiti matam dagiti mata ti ari ti Babilonia; makisaonto a mismo kenka inton mapanka idiay Babilonia.'
4 Listen to what the Lord is telling you, Zedekiah king of Judah. This is what the Lord says about you: You won't be killed;
Dumngegka iti sao ni Yahweh, Zedekias nga ari ti Juda! Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipanggep kenka, 'Saankanto a matay babaen iti kampilan.
5 you will die in peace. You will have a proper funeral with incense burned for you as they did for your forefathers, the kings who ruled before you. They will weep for you, crying, “The king is dead.” I myself am telling you this, declares the Lord.
Mataykanto a sikakappia. Kas iti panangpuorda iti insenso iti punpon dagiti kapuonam, dagiti immun-una nga ar-ari ngem sika, puorandanto ti bangkaymo. Kunadanto, “Asika pay apo!” Dung-awandakanto. Imbagakon - daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
6 Jeremiah the prophet told Zedekiah king of Judah all this there in Jerusalem.
Impakaamo ngarud ni Jeremias a profeta kenni Zedekias nga ari ti Juda amin dagitoy a sasao idiay Jerusalem.
7 At this time the king of Babylon's army was attacking the city and the Judean towns of Lachish and Azekah. These were the only fortified cities that had not yet been conquered in Judah.
Ginubat ti armada ti ari ti Babilonia ti Jerusalem ken dagiti amin a siudad ti Juda: ti Lacis ken Azeka. Dagitoy a siduad ti Juda ket nagtalinaed a nasarikedkedan a siudad.
8 A message from the Lord came to Jeremiah after King Zedekiah had made a agreement with everyone in Jerusalem to announce a proclamation of freedom.
Daytoy ti sao nga immay kenni Jeremias manipud kenni Yahweh kalpasan a nakitulag ni Ari Zedekias kadagiti amin a tattao idiay Jerusalem nga iwaragawagna ti pannakawayawaya:
9 This meant that every slave owner should free their Hebrew slaves, both male and female. No one was to force their fellow citizens to remain slaves any longer.
Masapul a wayawayaan ti tunggal maysa ti adipenna nga Israelita, lalaki ken babai. Masapul nga awanen ti siasinoman a mangtagabu iti padana nga Israelita iti Juda.
10 All the officials and all the people who accepted this agreement did what they said. They freed their male and female slaves, not forcing them to remain slaves any longer. They obeyed and let them go free.
Nagtungpal ngarud amin dagiti mangidadaulo ken tattao a nakipagmaymaysa iti tulag. Tunggal maysa ket wayawayaanna ti lalaki ken babai nga addipenna ket saanda idan a tagabuen pay. Impangagda ket pinalubosanda dagitoy a pumanaw.
11 However, later on they changed their minds and took back the male and female slaves they'd freed, forcing them back into slavery.
Ngem kalpasan daytoy, nagbaliw ti panunotda. Pinilitda ida nga agbalin manen a tagabu.
12 A message from the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,
Immay ngarud ti sao ni Yahweh kenni Jeremias a kunana,
13 This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: I made a agreement with your forefathers when I led them out of Egypt, out of the prison-house of slavery, saying:
“Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, 'Siak a mismo ket nakitulag kadagiti kapuonanyo iti aldaw nga inruarko ida manipud iti daga ti Egipto, manipud iti lugar ti pannakatagabu. Dayta ket idi imbagak,
14 Every seventh year, each of you are to set free all fellow Hebrews who have sold themselves to you. They can serve you for six years, but then you must set them free. But your forefathers didn't pay attention and didn't obey what I told them.
“Iti panagleppas ti tunggal pito a tawen, tunggal maysa ket masapul a palubosanna ti kabsatna, a padana a Hebreo a nangilako iti bagina kadakayo ken nagserbi kadakayo iti las-ud ti innem a tawen. Wayawayaanyo isuna.” Ngem saandak nga impangag wenno inkaskaso dagiti kapuonanyo.
15 A little while ago you decided to do what's right, which made me happy. You all announced that you would free your slaves. You made a agreement before me in my Temple.
Ita, nagbabawikayo, ket inrugiyo nga aramiden no ania ti makay-ayo iti imatangko. Nangwayawayakayo, tunggal maysa iti karrubana. Ket nangpasingkedkayo iti maysa a tulag iti sangoanak, iti balay a pakaaw-awagan ti naganko.
16 But now you've changed your minds and dishonored me. Each of you took back the male and female slaves you'd set free to do whatever they wanted. You forced them to become your slaves again.
Ngem kalpasanna, timmalikudkayo ken minulitanyo ti naganko; pinasubliyo iti tunggal maysa ti adipenna a babai ken lalaki, isuda dagitoy dagiti pinalubosanyo a mapan iti sadinnoman a kayatda. Pinilityo ida nga agbalin a tagabuyo manen.
17 So this is what the Lord says: You haven't obeyed me. You haven't announced freedom for your slaves, your own people. So now I announce “freedom” for you, declares the Lord: Freedom to be killed by war, by disease, and by famine! I will make all the kingdoms of the world horrified by you.
Gapu iti daytoy, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, 'Dakayo a mismo ket saandak nga impangag. Rumbeng koma nga impatungpalyo ti panangwayawaya, tunggal maysa kadakayo, kadagiti kakabsatyo ken kadagiti padayo nga Israelita. Dumngegkayo! Ipatungpalko kadakayo ti pannakawayawaya - daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh - pannakawayawaya a maipaay iti pannakadusa babaen iti kampilan, iti didigra, iti panagbisin, ta pagbalinenkayo a nakabutbuteng a banag iti imatang ti tunggal pagarian iti rabaw ti daga.
18 They have broken my agreement, and have not kept the terms of the agreement they promised before me. So I'm going to cut them up just like the calf they cut in half to pass between its two pieces.
Ket iyawatkonto dagiti tattao a nangsalungasing iti tulagko, a saan a nangtungpal kadagiti sao ti tulag a pinasingkedanda iti sangaonak idi nangguduada iti baka ken nagnada iti nagbaetan dagiti paset dagitoy,
19 I will hand them over to their enemies who are trying to kill them. This includes the leaders of Judah and Jerusalem, the court officials, the priests, and everyone else who passed between the pieces of the calf.
ket kalpasanna, dagiti mangidadaulo iti Juda ken Jerusalem, dagiti eunoko ken dagiti papadi, ken amin dagiti tattao iti daga ket nagna iti nagbaetan dagiti paset ti baka.
20 Their dead bodies will become food for birds of prey and wild animals.
Iyawatkonto ida iti ima dagiti kabusorda, ken kadagiti mangayat a mangkettel iti biagda. Dagiti bagida ket agbalinto a taraon dagiti billit iti tangatang ken dagiti ayup iti rabaw ti daga.
21 I will hand over Zedekiah king of Judah and his officials to their enemies who are trying to kill them, to the army of the king of Babylon which had paused its attack on you.
Iwayatkonto met ni Zedekias nga ari ti Juda ken dagiti mangidadaulona iti ima dagiti kabusorda ken kadagiti mangayat a mangkettel iti biagda, ken iti ima ti armada ti ari ti Babilonia nga umay, a maibusor kadakayo.
22 Listen! I will give the order, declares the Lord, and bring them back to Jerusalem. They will attack it, capture it, and burn it. I'm going to destroy the towns of Judah so nobody will live there.
Kitaenyo, ngannganiakon nga mangted iti bilin - daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh - ket isublikto ida iti daytoy a siudad tapno gubaten, sakupen, ken puoranda daytoy. Ta pagbalinekto dagiti siudad ti Juda a langalang a lugar ket awanto ti agnaed.'”
