< Jeremiah 42 >

1 Then all the army commanders, together with Johanan son of Kareah, Jezaniah son of Hoshaiah, and everyone from the least to the most important came to
Amalalu, Youha: ina: ne (Galia egefe), A:salia (Housia: ia egefe), dadi gagui ouligisu dunu amola eno dunu bagade amola fonobahadi, da nama misini,
2 Jeremiah the prophet and said, “Please listen to our request.
amane sia: i, “Ninia adole ba: su nabima! Nini fidima: ne, Hina Godema sia: ne gadoma! Nini huluane da mae bogole esaloma: ne, amo fidima: ne Ema sia: ne gadoma! Musa: ninia da bagohame esalu. Be wali di da ba: loba, ninia da bagahame esala.
3 Pray to the Lord your God for all of us. As you can see there's only a few of us left compared to how many there were before. In your prayer please ask the Lord your God to tell where to go and what to do.”
Hina Gode da ninima logo olelema: ne amola ninia hamomu olelema: ne, Ema sia: ne gadoma.”
4 “I'll do as you ask,” Jeremiah replied. “I will definitely pray to the Lord your God as you've requested, and I'll tell you everything he says. I won't keep anything back from you.”
Na da ilima bu adole i, “Defea! Dilia adole ba: i defele, na da ninia Hina Godema sia: ne gadomu. Ea sia: i liligi huluane, na da mae wamolegele, huluane dilima olelemu.”
5 Then they said to Jeremiah, “May the Lord be a true and faithful witness against us if we don't do everything that the Lord your God tells you we should.
Amalalu, ilia da nama amane sia: i, “Ninia da Hina Gode ba: ma: ne, dafawanedafa ilegesa. Ninia da hamoma: ne sia: i huluane amo Hina Gode da dima sia: mu liligi, amo huluanedafa ilima fa: no bobogemu.
6 Good or bad, we will obey what the Lord our God says, the one we're asking you to speak to. That way everything will go well with us, because we will be obeying what the Lord our God says.”
Ninia da dia nini fidima: ne Hina Godema sia: ne gadoma: ne adole ba: sa. Amo sia: ninia hahawane ba: sea o da: i dioiwane ba: sea, ninia da mae dawa: le, Hina Gode Ea sia: nabawane hamomu. Amasea, ninia da hahawane ba: mu.”
7 Ten days later a message from the Lord came to Jeremiah.
Eso nabuane aligili, Hina Gode da nama sia: i.
8 He summoned Johanan, all the army commanders, and everyone from the least to the most important.
Amaiba: le, na da Youha: ina: ne amola dadi gagui ouligisu dunu e sigi esalu, amola dunu eno huluane ilima gilisima: ne sia: i.
9 Jeremiah told them, This what the Lord, the God of Israel, says to those of who you sent to me to present your request:
Na da ilima amane sia: i, “Hina Gode, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode, Ema dilia da na Ema adole ba: musa: asunasi, E da amane sia: i,
10 If you will stay right here in this country, then I will build you up and I won't tear you down; I will plant you and I won't uproot you; because I'm very sad about the disaster I have brought down on you.
‘Dilia da amo soge ganodini esaloma: ne hanai galea, Na da dilia fi gaguia gadomu - hame mugulumu. Na da dili bugimu amola hame fadegale fasimu. Na da dilima wadela: su iabeba: le, da: i diosa.
11 I know you fear the king of Babylon, but you don't need to be afraid of him, declares the Lord. I am with you to save you and rescue you from him.
Dilia Ba: bilone hina bagade ema beda: su hou yolesima. Na da dili amola nini esala. Amola ea gasa amoga dili se mae nabima: ne, Na da dili gaga: mu
12 I will be merciful to you, so that he will be merciful to you and will let you stay in your own country.
Bai Na da asigi amola gogolema: ne olofosu dawa: Na da hamobeba: le, Ba: bilone hina bagade da dilima asigimu, amola dilia sogedafa amoga buhagima: ne, logo doasimu. Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.’
13 But if you say, “We won't stay here in this country,” and by doing so disobey what the Lord your God says;
Be dilia dunu amo da Yuda soge ganodini esalebe, Hina Gode Ea sia: amola amo soge ganodini bu esalumu amo mae higama. Agoane mae sia: ma, ‘Hame mabu! Ninia da asili, Idibidi sogega masunu. Bai amogawi ninia da gegesu hame ba: mu, amola gegemusa: ha lasu hame nabimu, amola hame ha: mu.’ Dilia da amane sia: sea, amasea Hina Gode Bagadedafa, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode, da amane sia: sa, ‘Dilia da Idibidi sogega esaloma: ne masunu hanai galea,
14 or if you say instead, “No, we're going to Egypt to live there, where we won't experience war or hear trumpets sounding or go hungry;”
15 then listen to what the Lord says, you survivors from Judah! This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: If you're absolutely determined to go to Egypt and live there,
16 then the war you're so frightened of will catch up with you there, and the famine you're so terrified of will chase after you into Egypt, and you will die there.
gegesu (amoga dilia da beda: i) amo da dilima doaga: mu amola ha: i bagade (amoga dilia da beda: i) amo dilia ba: mu. Amasea, dilia Idibidi soge ganodini bogogia: mu.
17 Everyone who decides to go to Egypt and live there will die by war and famine and disease. Not a single one will survive or escape the disaster I will bring down on them.
Dunu huluane amo da Idibidi sogega masunu hanai gala, amo huluane da gegesu o ha: i bagade o olosu amoga bogogia: i dagoi ba: mu. Dunu afae esalebe da hame ba: mu. Bai Na da ilima wadela: su bagade iasimu.’
18 This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: In the same way that my furious anger was poured out on the people living in Jerusalem, so will my anger be poured out on you if you go to Egypt. People will be horrified at what happens to you, and you will become a curse word, an insult, an expression of condemnation. You won't ever see your homeland again.
Hina Gode, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode, da amane sia: sa, ‘Na da Na ougi bagade amo Yelusaleme fi dunu ilima sogadigi. Amo defele, dilia da Na sia: mae nabawane Idibidi sogega ahoasea, Na da Na ougi bagade dilima sogadigimu. Dilia da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Dunu eno da dili higamu amola dilia dio amoga gagabusu aligima: ne ilegemu. Dilia da amo soge bu hamedafa ba: mu.’”
19 “The Lord has told you, survivors from Judah, ‘Don't go to Egypt,’” Jeremiah concluded. “Be absolutely clear about this warning I'm giving you today!
Amalalu, na da eno amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da dili Yuda soge ganodini hame mugululi asi esalebe dunu dilima dilia Idibidi sogega mae masa: ne sia: i dagoi. Amaiba: le, na da dilima sisasu iaha.
20 You've made a big mistake that will cost you your lives by sending me to the Lord your God, asking, ‘Pray to the Lord our God for us, and let us know everything the Lord our God says and we'll do it.’
Dilia da bogoma: ne giadofasu hamonana. Dilia da nama na da Hina Godema dili fidima: ne sia: ne gadoma: ne sia: i. Amola dilia da Ea sia: i liligi huluane amoma fa: no bobogema: ne dafawane ilegele sia: i.
21 I have told you today what he said, but you have not obeyed everything the Lord your God sent me to tell you.
Amola wali, na da dilima sia: huluane adoi dagoi. Be dilia sia: huluane amo Hina Gode da na dilima alofele iasima: ne asunasi, amo nabimu higasa.
22 So you should know that without question you're going to die by war and famine and disease in Egypt where you want to go and live.”
Amaiba: le, amo bu dawa: ma! Dilia da Idibidi sogega esaloma: ne masunu hanai gala. Be amo ganodini dilia da gegesu o ha: i bagade o olo bagade amoga bogogia: i dagoi ba: mu.”
