Jeremiah 38

1 Shephatiah son of Mattan, Gedaliah son of Pashhur, Jucal son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur son of Malchijah heard what Jeremiah was telling everyone:

Hagi Matani nemofo Sifatiaki, Pasuri nemofo Gadaliaki, Selemaia nemofo Jukaliki, Malkia nemofo Pasuriki hu'za mani'ne'za nentahizageno Jeremaia'a maka vahera amanage huno zamasami'ne,

2 This is what the Lord says: Anyone who remains in this city will die from war and famine and disease, but anyone who goes over to the Babylonians will live. Their reward will be to save their lives.

Ra Anumzamo'a huno, iza'o ama rankuma'mofo agu'afima manisia vahera hapinti ahe frige, ne'zanku huno frige, krimo ahe frige hugahie. Hianagi iza'o Kaldia vahe zamazampima freno vania vahe'mo'a ofri manigahie. Anama ofri manisaza vahera hapinti fenozama rohure'za erizankna hu'za, ozamahe zamatresage'za manigahaze.

3 This is what the Lord says: Be sure of this—Jerusalem will be handed over to the army of the king of Babylon. He is going to capture it.

Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Ama Jerusalemi rankumara Babiloni kini ne'mofo sondia vahe zamazampi erintesuge'za hahugatere'za erigahaze hu'ne.

4 The officers told the king, “This man deserves to die because he's demoralizing the defenders left in the city, and all the people too, by telling them this. This man isn't trying to help these people, he's only going to destroy them.”

Hagi Jeremaia'a anagema hige'za anante kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'mo'za kini nera asami'za, ama nera ahe frigahune. Na'ankure amanahu nanekema nehia zamo'a, ama rankumapima nemaniza sondia vahe'ene maka vahemo'zanema koro'ma hanaza naneke nehie. Na'ankure agra ama vahe'mokizmi knare zankura keaga nosianki, hazenkema erisaza nanekege nehie.

5 “Well, you can do whatever you want to him,” King Zedekiah replied. “I can't stop you.”

Hagi anante kini ne' Zedekaia'a huno, antahiho! Agra menina tamagri tamazampi mani'neanki'na, nagra kini ne'mo'na mago zana osugahue.

6 So they took Jeremiah and put him in the cistern belonging to Malchiah, the king's son, which was in the guard's courtyard. They lowered Jeremiah down with ropes into the cistern. It didn't have any water, only mud, and Jeremiah sank into the mud.

Hagi anagema hige'za Jeremaiana avre'za kini ne'mofo nemofo Malkiza tinkerifi ome atrageno urami'ne. Anama ome atre'naza tinkerimo'a sondia vahe'ma nemaniza kumapi me'ne. Ana hu'negeno ana kerifina tina omanegeno hapamoke me'nefi Jeremaiana nofi rentene'za atrazageno anampi uramino hampakane'ne.

7 Ebed-melech the Cushite, a royal official in the king's palace, found out that they had put Jeremiah in the cistern. The king was sitting at the Benjamin Gate,

Hagi mago nera Ebet-Melekikino kini ne'mofo nompi eri'za e'neria nere. Agra Itiopia mopafinti nekino, kini ne'mofo nompi mani'neno, Jeremaiama avre'za tinkerifima ome atre'naza nanekea antahi'ne. Hagi ana zupa kini ne'mo'a rankumamofona Benzameni kafanema nehaza rankafante mani'ne.

8 so Ebed-melech left the palace and went to talk to the king

Hagi Ebet-Meleki'a kini ne'mofo nompima mani'neretira atreno vuno, kini nera amanage huno ome asami'ne.

9 “My lord the king, all these terrible things these men have done to Jeremiah the prophet are evil. They've put him in the cistern, and he'll starve to death there because there's no more bread left in the city.”

Kini nera ranimoka, ama vahe'mo'za havi avu'avaza hu'za, kasnampa ne' Jeremaiana avre'za vu'za tinkerifina ome atre'nazankino, anampi manineno agazanku huno frigahie. Na'ankure magore huno rankumapina ne'zana omanetfa hu'ne.

10 So the king gave the order to Ebed-melech the Cushite, “Take thirty men with you and go and pull Jeremiah the prophet out of the cistern before he dies.”

Anagema higeno'a kini ne'mo'a Ebet-Melekina amanage huno huntene, Ru frisnigi vunka 30'a vahe ome zamavarenka ana kerifintira kasnampa ne' Jeremaiana ome avre atreho.

11 Ebed-melech took the men and went to the storehouse under the palace. He took some rags and old clothes from there and then went to the cistern where he lowered them with ropes to Jeremiah.

Anage higeno'a Ebet-Meleki'a ana vahera ome zamavarege'za kini ne'mofo nompi vu'za, feno zama nentaza nomofo fenka kazigama me'nea nompima, tagato tagatu'ma hu'nea kukenane atafa kukenama nentazafinti ana kukena ome eriteno vuno nofi ome anakiteno atregeno Jeremaia'ma kerifima mani'nere urami'ne.

12 Ebed-melech the Cushite called down to Jeremiah, “Put these rags and old clothes under your arms to protect you from the ropes.” Jeremiah did so,

Hagi ana Itiopia ne' Ebet-Meleki''a Jeremaiana amanage huno asami'ne, Ana tavarave nofi erinka tarega kazo'namofo fenka kaziga atregeno rugagino, ana hutenka nofimo'ma katama kami'zankura nofira erinka kavuga ana tavravemofo amu'nompi anakio. Higeno anama asamia zana amage anteno Jeremaia'a hu'ne.

13 and using the ropes they pulled him up and took him out of the cistern. Jeremiah stayed there in the guard's courtyard.

Ana hute'za ana nofite Jeremaiana ana kerifintira avazuhu anagate'naze. Ana hutazageno kini ne'mofo kumapima sondia vahe'ma nemanizafi mani'ne.

14 Then King Zedekiah sent for Jeremiah the prophet and met him at the third Temple entrance. “I need to ask you something,” the king told Jeremiah. “You mustn't hide anything from me.”

Hagi mago zupa kini ne' Zedekaia'a vahe huzmantege'za vu'za Jeremaiana ome asamizageno Ra Anumzamofo mono nomofona nampa 3 kafama unefrazare mani'negeno eme ke'ne. Higeno kini nemo'a amanage huno Jeremaiana asami'ne. Nagra mago zanku kantahige'za nehuanki magore hunka nagritera eri frara okio.

15 “If I tell you then you'll definitely have me killed,” Jeremiah replied. “Even if I were to give you advice, you wouldn't listen to me anyway.”

Anage higeno Jeremaia'a amanage huno Zedekaiana asami'ne. Nagrama kekare'ma nonama hu'na kasami'nuana nagrira tamagerfa hunka nahe frigahane. Hagi nagrama knare antahintahima kamisuana, ana nanekeni'a ontahigahane.

16 King Zedekiah solemnly promised Jeremiah in private, “As the Lord lives, who gave us this life, I won't have you killed, and I won't hand you over to those who want to kill you.”

Hianagi kini ne' Zedekaia'a oku'a zanagrake mani'neke Jeremaiana amanage huno huvempa hunte'ne. Ra Anumzana kasefa huno mani'nea Anumzama, tasimu'ma tamigeta mani'nona Anumzamofo avufi huvempa huanki'na kagrira kahe ofrigahue. Ana nehu'na kahe frinaku'ma nehaza vahe zamazampina kavre ontegahue.

17 Then Jeremiah told Zedekiah, “This is what the Lord God Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘If you hand yourself over to the officers of the king of Babylon, then you'll live. Jerusalem won't be burned down, and you and your family will survive.

Anante Jeremaia'a amanage huno Zedekaiana asami'ne. Ra Anumzana Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamo'a huno, ha'ma osu kagrama atrenka Babiloni kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe zamazampima ufresunka, kagra knare hunka manigahane. Ana'ma hananke'za ama Jerusalemi rankumara tevea tagi ontegahaze. Ana hanagenka kagrane nagaka'anena knare huta manigahaze.

18 But if you don't hand yourself over to the officers of the king of Babylon, then this city will be given to the Babylonians. They will burn it down, and you yourself won't escape being captured.”

Hianagi kagrama atrenka Babiloni kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe zamazampima uofresanke'na, Nagra Kaldia vahe zamazampi ama Jerusalemi rankumara erintesuge'za teve tagintesageno tegahie. Ana hanigenka kagra ana vahe zamazampintira zamatrenka ofregahane.

19 But King Zedekiah said to Jeremiah, “I am afraid of the those people of Judah who have gone over to the Babylonians, because the Babylonians might hand me over the them so they could abuse me.”

Hagi kini ne' Zedekaia'a amanage huno Jeremaiana asami'ne. Koma Juda vahe'mo'zama atre'za Babiloni vahe'enema umani'naza vaheku koro nehue. Nagri'ma navre'za Babilonima vu'za Juda vahe zamazampi ome antesage'za, nazeri havizama huzanku korora nehue.

20 “They won't hand you over,” Jeremiah replied. “If you obey what the Lord says by doing what I tell you, then things will go well for you and you'll live.

Higeno Jeremaia'a ana kenona huno, Kagrira kavre'za Juda vahe zamazampina ome ontegahaze. Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma hige'nama kasamua nanekea antahinka amage'anto. Ana'ma hananke'za kagrira kahe ofrisagenka knare hunka manigahane.

21 But if you refuse to hand yourself over, this is what the Lord has told me:

Hianagi kagrama kema ontahinka, kagraka'ama atrenka Babiloni vahe zamazampima uofresanana, Ra Anumzamo'a amanahu huno ava'nagna zana naveri hige'na ke'noe.

22 All the women who are left in the palace of the king of Judah will be led out and handed over to the officials of the king of Babylon Those women will say: ‘Those good friends of yours! You were taken in by them and conquered by them. Your feet got stuck in the mid, so they abandoned you.’

Juda kini ne'mofo nompima mani'naza maka a'nane nagara, ana maka zamavare'za vu'za Babiloni kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe ome zami'naze. Ana hazage'za ana a'nemo'za hu'za, kagrama antahima nezamina ronekamo'za kagrira hara hugagatenere'za regavatga hazagenka zamagri nanekea antahi'nane. Ana hankeno kagiamo'ma hapapima hampakanege'za, kagrira rukrahera hu'za onkage'naze.

23 All your wives and children will be handed over to the Chaldeans. And you yourself will not escape, for you will be captured by the king of Babylon, and Jerusalem will be burned down.”

Ana maka a'ne naga'kane mofavre nagakanena ana maka zamavare'za vu'za Kaldia vahe ome zamigahaze. Ana hanagenka kagra zamagri zamazampintira zamatrenka ofregahane. Hianagi kagrira Babiloni kini ne'mo'a kaze'nerinige'za ama rankumara teve tagintesageno tegahie.

24 Zedekiah warned Jeremiah, “Nobody can find out about this conversation, otherwise you'll die.

Hagi anante Zedekaia'a amanage huno Jeremaiana asami'ne. Amama hana nanekea atregeno mago vahe'mo'a ontahino. Vahe'ma zamasamisanana kagra frigahane.

25 If the officers find out that I've talked with you, and they come and ask you, ‘Tell us what you and the king were talking about! Don't hide anything from us, or we'll kill you;’

Hagi kagranema keagama hu'a nanekema nagri eri'za vahe'mo'zama antahisu'za, e'za kagri'ma eme kantahige'za, kagra na'ane hunka hankeno kini ne'mo'a na'ane hifi magore hunka ana nanekea eri frara okinka tasamio. Anama hananketa kagrira kahe ofrigahune hu'za hugahaze.

26 then you are to tell them, ‘I was asking the king to grant my request not to return me to the house of Jonathan to die there.’”

E'inahu nanekema hanagenka kagra amanage hunka zamasamio. Nagrama kini ne'ene keagama huana, nagra Jonatani nompima umanine'na fri'zanku ete natrege'na ana nompina ova'neno hu'na antahige'noe hunka zamasamio.

27 When all the officers came to Jeremiah wanting to know, he repeated to them exactly what the king had told him to say. So they didn't ask him anything more because no one had heard what had been said.

Hagi anante maka kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'mo'za Jeremaiante e'za eme antahigageno, kini nemo'ma asami'nea kante anteno agra kenona huzmante'ne. Hige'za Jeremaia'enena mago'ene keaga osu'naze. Na'ankure kini nemo'enema keagama hu'na'a nanekea mago vahe'mo'a ontahitfa hu'negu anara hu'naze.

28 Jeremiah remained there in the guard's courtyard until the day Jerusalem was captured.

Hagi Jeremaia'a sondia vahe'ma nemaniza kumapima kinama huno nemanifi anampinka mani'nege'za, ha' vahe'mo'za e'za Jerusalemi kumara hara eme hugatere'za eri'naze.
