Jeremiah 39
1 In the tenth month of the ninth year of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and his whole army arrived at Jerusalem and besieged it.
Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí a kó Jerusalẹmu, ní ọdún kẹsànán Sedekiah, ọba Juda, nínú oṣù kẹwàá, Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli gbógun ti Jerusalẹmu pẹ̀lú gbogbo ogun rẹ̀, wọ́n sì dó tì í.
2 On the ninth day of the fourth month of the eleventh year of Zedekiah's reign, the city wall was broken through.
Ní ọjọ́ kẹsànán, oṣù kẹrin ọdún kọkànlá Sedekiah, ni a wó odi ìlú náà.
3 All the officials of the king of Babylon came in and took over the city, making their headquarters at the Middle Gate. They were Nergal-sharezer of Samgar, Nebo-sarsekim the Rabsaris, Nergal-sharezer the Rabmag, and all the other officials of the king of Babylon.
Nígbà náà ni gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè ọba Babeli wá, wọ́n sì jókòó ní àárín ẹnu ibodè, àní Nergali-Ṣareseri ti Samgari, Nebo-Sarsikimu olórí ìwẹ̀fà, Nergali-Ṣareseri, olórí amòye, pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè ọba Babeli yóò kú.
4 When Zedekiah king of Judah and all the defenders saw them there, they ran away. They escaped from the city during the night through the king's garden, passing through the gate between the two walls, and took the road to the Arabah.
Nígbà tí Sedekiah ọba Juda àti àwọn ọmọ-ogun rí wọn, wọ́n sá, wọ́n kúrò ní ìlú ní alẹ́, wọ́n gba ọ̀nà ọgbà ọba lọ láàrín ẹnu ibodè pẹ̀lú odi méjì, wọ́n dojúkọ aginjù.
5 But the Babylonian army chased after them and caught up with Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. They captured him and brought him before Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he put him on trial and punished him.
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí àwọn ọmọ-ogun Babeli lé wọn, wọ́n bá Sedekiah láàrín aginjù Jeriko. Wọ́n mú un ní ìgbèkùn, wọ́n sì mú u tọ Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli àti Ribla ní ilẹ̀ Hamati, níbi tí wọ́n ti ṣe ìdájọ́ rẹ̀.
6 The king of Babylon had Zedekiah's sons killed as Zedekiah watched, and he also executed all of Judah's leaders there in Riblah.
Níbẹ̀ ní Ribla, ni ọba Babeli ti dúńbú àwọn ọmọ Sedekiah lójú rẹ̀, tí ó sì tún pa gbogbo àwọn ọlọ́lá ilẹ̀ Juda.
7 Then he had Zedekiah's eyes gouged out, and had him bound with bronze chains and taken away to Babylon.
Nígbà náà ni ó fọ́ ojú Sedekiah, ó sì dè é pẹ̀lú ẹ̀wọ̀n láti gbé e lọ sí ilẹ̀ Babeli.
8 The Babylonians burned down the king's palace and the people's houses, and they demolished Jerusalem's city walls.
Àwọn Babeli dáná sun ààfin ọba àti ilé àwọn ènìyàn, wọ́n sì wó odi Jerusalẹmu.
9 Then Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard carried off to Babylon the rest of the people who had stayed in the city, together with those who had deserted and gone over to him.
Nebusaradani olórí àwọn ọmọ-ogun mú lọ sí ìgbèkùn Babeli pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn tí ó ṣẹ́kù nínú ìlú.
10 But he left behind in the land of Judah some of the poorest people who didn't have any property. He gave them vineyards and fields at that time.
Ṣùgbọ́n Nebusaradani olórí ogun fi àwọn aláìní sílẹ̀ ní Juda, àwọn tí kò ní ohun kankan ní àkókò náà, ó fún wọn ní ọgbà àjàrà àti oko.
11 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had given orders to Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard regarding Jeremiah, saying,
Nísinsin yìí, Nebukadnessari ọba àwọn Babeli pàṣẹ lórí Jeremiah, láti ọ̀dọ̀ Nebusaradani olórí ogun wá wí pé:
12 “Go and get Jeremiah and watch out that nothing bad happens to him. Do whatever he wants.”
“Ẹ gbé e, kí ẹ sì bojútó o. Ẹ má ṣe ṣe ohun búburú fún un, ṣùgbọ́n ohunkóhun tó bá béèrè ni kí ẹ fi fún un.”
13 So Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard, Nebushazban the Rabsaris, Nergal-sharezer the Rabmag, and all the army captains of the king of Babylon
Bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ pẹ̀lú, Nebusaradani balógun ìṣọ́, àti Nebusaradani olórí ìwẹ̀fà, àti Nergali-Ṣareseri, olórí amòye àti gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè ọba Babeli,
14 took Jeremiah from the guard's courtyard, and they handed him over to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, to take him home. Jeremiah stayed there with his own people.
ránṣẹ́ láti mú Jeremiah kúrò nínú túbú. Wọ́n gbé e lọ fún Gedaliah ọmọ Ahikamu ọmọ Ṣafani láti mú padà lọ sí ilé àti máa wà pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
15 During the time that Jeremiah had been kept prisoner in the guard's courtyard, a message from the Lord had come to him:
Nígbà tí Jeremiah wà nínú túbú, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ ọ́ wá wí pé:
16 “Go and tell Ebed-melech the Cushite that this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: I am about to keep my promise I made against this city—to harm it and not to help it—you'll see it for yourself when it happens.
“Lọ sọ fún Ebedimeleki ará Kuṣi, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí: Èmi ṣetán láti mú ọ̀rọ̀ mi ṣẹ lórí ìlú yìí nípa àjálù kì í ṣe àlàáfíà. Ní àkókò náà ni yóò ṣẹ lójú rẹ.
17 But when that day comes I'm going to save you, declares the Lord. You won't be handed over to the people you're afraid of.
Ṣùgbọ́n, Èmi yóò gbà ọ́ lọ́jọ́ náà ni Olúwa wí. A kò ní fi ọ́ lé ọwọ́ àwọn tí o bẹ̀rù.
18 I promise to rescue you so that you're won't be killed. Your reward will be your life, because you trusted in me, declares the Lord.”
Èmi yóò gbà ọ́ là; o kò ní ṣubú láti ipa idà; ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ yóò sá àsálà fún ẹ̀mí rẹ, nítorí pé ìwọ ní ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé nínú mi, ni Olúwa wí.’”
