< Jeremiah 37 >

1 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon replaced Jehoiachin son of Jehoiakim with Zedekiah son of Josiah as the ruling king of Judah.
Ba: bilone hina bagade Nebiuga: denese da Yehoiagini (Yihoiagimi egefe) amo fadegale, ea ouligisu sogebi amo Sedegaia (Yousaia egefe) ema i.
2 But Zedekiah and his officers and everyone else in the country refused to obey what the Lord had said through Jeremiah the prophet.
Be hina bagade Sedegaia amola ea eagene ouligisu dunu amola Yuda dunu huluane da Hina Gode Ea sia: nama i, amo hame nabasu.
3 However, King Zedekiah sent Jehucal son of Shelemiah and Zephaniah the priest, son of Maaseiah, to Jeremiah the prophet with the message, “Please pray to the Lord our God for us!”
Yuda hina bagade Sedegaia da Yihuga: le (Sielemaia egefe) amola gobele salasu dunu Sefanaia (Ma: iasia egefe) amo nama na da ninia fi fidima: ne, Hina Godema sia: ne gadoma: ne sia: musa: asunasi.
4 (At this time Jeremiah could come and go freely, because as yet they hadn't put him in prison.)
Amo esoha, na da gagili ga: i diasu ganodini hame salabe ba: i. Be na da udigili dunu ilia esalebe ganodini ahoasu.
5 Pharaoh's army was advancing from Egypt, and when the Babylonian army heard about it, they moved away from Jerusalem.
Ba: bilone dadi gagui wa: i da Yelusaleme amoma doagala: lalu. Be ilia da Idibidi dadi gagui wa: i da Idibidi alalo giadofai amo nababeba: le, ilia da sinidigili hobea: i.
6 Then a message from the Lord came to Jeremiah the prophet:
Amalalu, Hina Gode, Isala: ili ilia Gode, da nama sia: i.
7 This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, instructs you to tell the king of Judah, who sent you to ask me for help: Look! Pharaoh's army, which set out to help you, is going to return home to Egypt.
E da na Sedegaiama amane sia: ma: ne sia: i, “Idibidi dadi gagui wa: i da di fidimusa: manebe. Be ilia da sinidigili, ilia sogega buhagimu.
8 Then the Babylonians will return and attack Jerusalem. They will capture it and burn it down.
Amasea, Ba: bilone dunu da bu misini, Yelusaleme amoma gegenanu, laluga ulagimu.
9 This is what the Lord says: Don't fool yourselves by saying, “The Babylonians are gone for good,” because they're not!
Na, Hina Gode, da dima sisasu iaha. Dilia ogogole Ba: bilone dunu da bu hame misunu mae dawa: ma. Bai ilia da dafawane bu misunu.
10 In fact, even if you were able to kill the whole Babylonian army attacking you, leaving only wounded men in their tents, they would still get up and burn this city down.
Amola dilia da Ba: bilone dadi gagui wa: i huluane hasali ganiaba, amola Ba: bilone fa: ginisi dunu fawane ilia abula diasu ganodini diasa: ili esala ganiaba, amo dunu da wa: legadole, dilia moilai bai bagade laluga nene dagoma: ne ulagila: loba.”
11 When the Babylonian army moved away from Jerusalem because of the threat of Pharaoh's army,
Ba: bilone dadi gagui wa: i da Yelusaleme doagala: su yolesili, hobea: i. Bai ilia da Idibidi dadi gagui da doagala: musa: ahoanebe nabi.
12 Jeremiah was on his way out of Jerusalem to go to his home in the territory of Benjamin to claim his share of his family's property.
Amaiba: le, na da Yelusaleme yolesili, na soge (na fi ilia soge la: idi sogebi) Bediamini soge bagade amo ganodini diala, amo lamusa: , na da masunu dawa: i galu.
13 However, when he reached the Benjamin Gate, the guard captain, whose name was Irijah son of Shelemiah, son of Hananiah, arrested him, saying, “You're defecting to the Babylonians!”
Be na da Bediamini Logo Holei amoga doaga: loba, dadi gagui ouligisu amoga hawa: hamonanu (ea dio da Ailaidia [Sielemaia egefe amola Ha: nanaia ea aowa]) e da na logo ga: le, nama amane sia: i, “Di da hohonone, Ba: bilone fi amoga masunu galebe!”
14 “That's not true,” Jeremiah replied. “I'm not defecting to the Babylonians!” But Irijah refused to listen to him. He arrested Jeremiah and took him before the officers.
Be na da bu adole i, “Hame mabu! Na da hohonone dili yolesimu hame dawa: !” Be Ailaidia da na sia: hame nabi. E da na gagulaligili, eagene ouligisu dunu ilima hiouginana asi.
15 The officers were furious with Jeremiah. They had him beaten and locked up in the house of Jonathan the scribe, which had been turned into a prison.
Ilia da nama bagadewane ougi amola ilia sia: beba: le, ilia da na fananu, sia: dedesu dunu Yonada: ne amo ea diasu ganodini sali. Bai ilia da ea diasu gagili ga: i diasu agoane hamoi dagoi.
16 Jeremiah was placed in a cell in the underground dungeon and was kept there for a long time.
Na da uli dogoi sesei osobo hagudu amo ganodini salabe ba: i. Amo ganodini na da eso bagohame esalu.
17 Some while later King Zedekiah secretly sent for him and had him brought to the royal palace where he asked, “Is there a message from Lord for me?” “Yes there is,” Jeremiah replied. “You are going to be handed over to the king of Babylon.”
Fa: no, hina bagade Sedegaia da na ema misa: ne sia: i. E da wamowane, nama amane adole ba: i, “Hina Gode da ninima sia: adole iasibala: ?” Na da bu adole i, “Sia: galaiou! Di da Ba: bilone hina bagade amo ea loboga gagulaligi ba: mu.”
18 Then Jeremiah asked King Zedekiah, “What wrong have I done to you or your servants or these people, for you to put me in prison?
Amalalu, na da amane adole ba: i, “Di da na gagili ga: i diasu ganodini sali dagoi. Be na da adi wadela: i hou, dima o dilia eagene ouligisu dunu ilima o Yuda fi dunu ilima hamobela: ?
19 Where are your prophets now, the ones who prophesied to you, saying, ‘The king of Babylon won't come and attack you and this country’?
Dia balofede dunu da wali habila: ? Ilia da ogogole, Ba: bilone hina bagade da dima amola ninia soge amoma hame doagala: mu sia: i.
20 Now please listen to me, my lord the king, and respond positively to my request. Don't send me back to prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe, otherwise I'll die there.”
Amola wali, hina bagade, dia na sia: nabima: ne, na edegesa! Dia na gagili ga: i diasu amo Yonada: ne ea diasu ganodini amoga mae asunasima. Di agoane hamosea, na da amogawi dafawane bogomu.”
21 King Zedekiah gave the order for Jeremiah to be held in the guard's courtyard and be provided with a loaf of bread every day from a bakery until there was no bread left in the city. So Jeremiah stayed in the guard's courtyard.
Amaiba: le, hina bagade Sedegaia da ilia da na hina bagade diasu gagoi amo ganodini gagili ga: i diasu agoane esaloma: ne, logo ga: sima: ne sia: i. Na da amogawi esalu. Eso huluane ilia da agi ga: gi afadafa (agi ga: gi hamosu diasuga lai) nama ianu, agi ga: gi huluane Yelusaleme ganodini galu huluane dagobeba: le fawane yolesi.
