Jeremiah 36
1 And in the fourth yeere of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah, came this word vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, saying,
Nʼafọ anọ nke ọchịchị Jehoiakim nwa Josaya bụ eze Juda, okwu Onyenwe anyị ndị a ruru Jeremaya ntị,
2 Take thee a roule or booke, and write therein all the wordes that I haue spoken to thee against Israel, and against Iudah, and against all the nations, from the day that I spake vnto thee, euen from the dayes of Iosiah vnto this day.
“Were akwụkwọ detuo okwu ahụ niile m gwarala gị banyere Izrel, na Juda, na banyere ndị mba ọzọ dị iche iche, bụ okwu ndị ahụ m bidoro ịgwa gị site nʼoge ọchịchị Josaya ruo ugbu a.
3 It may bee that the House of Iudah will heare of all the euill, which I determined to doe vnto them that they may returne euery man from his euil way, that I may forgiue their iniquitie and their sinnes.
Ma eleghị anya mgbe ndị Juda nụrụ ka e kwupụtara ihe banyere ihe ọjọọ ndị ahụ m zubere, nke na-aga ịbịakwasị ha, onye ọbụla nʼime ha nʼotu nʼotu ga-esite nʼụzọ ọjọọ ya tụgharịa. Mgbe ahụ, aga m agbaghara ha ajọ omume ha na mmehie ha.”
4 Then Ieremiah called Baruch the sonne of Neriah, and Baruch wrote at the mouth of Ieremiah all the wordes of the Lord, which hee had spoken vnto him, vpon a roule or booke.
Ya mere, Jeremaya kpọrọ Baruk nwa Neraya ka ọ bịakwute ya. Mgbe Jeremaya nọ na-akpọpụta okwu ahụ niile Onyenwe anyị gwara ya, Baruk nọkwa na-edepụta ha nʼakwụkwọ.
5 And Ieremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut vp, and can not go into the House of the Lord.
Emesịa, Jeremaya gwara Baruk okwu sị ya, “Ọnọdụ nke m nọ nʼime ya ugbu a agaghị ekwe ka m site nʼebe a pụọ jeruo nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị.
6 Therefore goe thou, and reade the roule wherein thou hast written at my mouth the words of the Lord in the audience of the people in the Lordes House vpon the fasting day: also thou shalt reade them in the hearing of all Iudah, that come out of their cities.
Nʼihi ya, gaa nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị ibu ọnụ, nọdụ nʼebe ahụ gụpụtara ndị mmadụ okwu Onyenwe anyị ndị a ị dere nʼakwụkwọ dịka m kpọpụtara ha. Gụpụtara ya ndị Juda si obodo niile bịa nʼụlọnsọ ahụ.
7 It may be that they will pray before the Lord, and euery one returne from his euill way, for great is the anger and the wrath, that the Lord hath declared against this people.
Ma eleghị anya, ha ga-arịọ Onyenwe anyị arịrịọ. Ma eleghị anya onye ọbụla nʼime ha ga-esite nʼụzọ ọjọọ ya tụgharịa, ka iwe na ọnụma dị ukwuu nke Onyenwe anyị ga-ekpughe megide ndị a ghara ịbịakwasị ha.”
8 So Baruch the sonne of Neriah did according vnto all, that Ieremiah the Prophet commanded him, reading in the booke the wordes of the Lord in the Lords House.
Baruk nwa Neraya mere dịka Jeremaya onye amụma si gwa ya. Ọ gụpụtara okwu Onyenwe anyị, nke dị nʼakwụkwọ ahụ, nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị.
9 And in the fift yeere of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah, in the ninth moneth, they proclaimed a fast before the Lord to all the people in Ierusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Iudah vnto Ierusalem.
Nʼọnwa itoolu nke afọ ise nke ọchịchị Jehoiakim nwa Josaya eze Juda, e doro oge dị iche nye maka ibu ọnụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. E kwusara ibu ọnụ a nye ndị niile nọ na Jerusalem, na ndị si nʼobodo Juda niile bịa na Jerusalem.
10 Then read Baruch in the booke the wordes of Ieremiah in the house of the Lord, in the chamber of Gemariah the sonne of Shaphan the secretarie, in the hier court at the entrie of the new gate of the Lordes house, in the hearing of all the people.
Baruk nọ nʼọnụụlọ Gemaraya nwa Shefan, bụ ode akwụkwọ, gụpụtara ndị niile nọ nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị okwu Jeremaya, nke dị nʼakwụkwọ a dị nsọ nʼọnụ ụzọ ama ọhụrụ nke ụlọnsọ ahụ.
11 When Michaiah the sonne of Gemariah, the sonne of Shaphan had heard out of the booke all the wordes of the Lord,
Mgbe Mikaya nwa Gemaraya nwa Shefan nụrụ okwu Onyenwe anyị nke e si nʼakwụkwọ ahụ gụpụta,
12 Then hee went downe to the Kings house into the Chancellours chamber, and loe, all the princes sate there, euen Elishama the Chancellour, and Delaiah the sonne of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the sonne of Achbor, and Gemariah the sonne of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the sonne of Hananiah, and all the princes.
o si nʼebe ahụ pụọ, gaa nʼụlọ ode akwụkwọ dị nʼụlọeze, ebe ndịisi niile zukọrọ. Ndị a bụ ndị zukọrọ nʼebe ahụ; Elishama, ode akwụkwọ, na Delaya nwa Shemaya, na Elnatan nwa Akboa, na Gemaraya nwa Shefan, na Zedekaya nwa Hananaya, na ndịisi ọchịchị ndị ọzọ.
13 Then Michaiah declared vnto them all the wordes that he had heard when Baruch read in the booke in the audience of the people.
Mgbe Mikaya gwara ha ihe ọ nụrụ Baruk si nʼakwụkwọ ahụ gụpụtara ndị mmadụ,
14 Therefore all the princes sent Iehudi the sonne of Nethaniah, the sonne of Shelemiah, the sonne of Chushi, vnto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hande the roule, wherein thou hast read in the audience of the people, and come. So Baruch the sonne of Neriah, tooke the roule in his hand, and came vnto them.
ndịisi ahụ niile zipụrụ Jehudi nwa Netanaya, nwa Shelemaya, nwa Kushi, ka o jekwuru Baruk sị ya “Were akwụkwọ ahụ ị si na ya gụpụtara ndị mmadụ ihe, bịa.” Ya mere, Baruk, nwa Neraya, ji akwụkwọ a nʼaka ya jekwuru ha.
15 And they saide vnto him, Sit downe now, and reade it, that we may heare. So Baruch read it in their audience.
Mgbe o ruru nʼebe ahụ, ha gwara ya sị ya, “Biko, nọdụ ala gụọra anyị ihe dị nʼakwụkwọ a.” Ya mere, Baruk gụpụtara ha ihe dị nʼakwụkwọ ahụ.
16 Now when they had heard all the wordes, they were afraid both one and other, and said vnto Baruch, We will certifie the King of all these wordes.
Mgbe ha nụchasịrị okwu dị nʼakwụkwọ ahụ, ha lerịtara onwe ha anya nʼegwu, gwa Baruk okwu sị ya, “Anyị aghaghị ime ka okwu ndị a ruo eze ntị.”
17 And they examined Baruch, saying, Tell vs nowe, howe diddest thou write all these wordes at his mouth?
Ha jụrụ Baruk sị ya, “Gwa anyị i si aṅaa detuo ihe ndị a niile? Ọ bụ Jeremaya kpọpụtaara gị ihe i dere?”
18 Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these wordes vnto me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ynke in the booke.
Baruk zara sị ha, “E, ọ bụ ya kpọpụtara m okwu ndị a niile m deturu. E ji m inki dee ha nʼakwụkwọ.”
19 Then saide the princes vnto Baruch, Goe, hide thee, thou and Ieremiah, and let no man knowe where ye be.
Mgbe ahụ, ndịisi ahụ gwara Baruk okwu sị ya, “Ọsọ, gaa ka gị na Jeremaya zoo onwe unu. Unu ekwekwala ka onye ọbụla mata ebe unu zoro onwe unu.”
20 And they went in to the King to the court, but they layde vp the roule in the chamber of Elishama the Chancellour and tolde the King all the wordes, that he might heare.
Mgbe ha zochasịrị akwụkwọ ahụ nʼọnụụlọ Elishama onye ode akwụkwọ, ha jekwuuru eze nʼogige ụlọ ya kọọrọ ya ihe niile.
21 So the King sent Iehudi to fet the roule, and he tooke it out of Elishama the Chancellours chamber, and Iehudi read it in the audience of the King, and in the audience of all the princes, which stoode beside the King.
Eze ziri Jehudi ka ọ gaa weta akwụkwọ ahụ. Mgbe Jehudi wetara ya site nʼọnụụlọ Elishama, ode akwụkwọ, ọ gụrụ ya nʼihu eze, na nʼihu ndịisi ọchịchị ahụ niile guzo nʼakụkụ eze.
22 Nowe the King sate in the winter House, in the ninth moneth, and there was a fire burning before him.
Nʼọnwa nke itoolu ahụ, mgbe eze nọ nʼụlọ oyi ya, ọkụ na-enwukwa nʼime ite ọkụ dị nʼihu ya.
23 And when Iehudi had read three, or foure sides, hee cut it with the penknife and cast it into the fire, that was on the hearth vntil all the roule was consumed in the fire, that was on the hearth.
Mgbe ọbụla Jehudi gụsịrị ibe akwụkwọ atọ maọbụ anọ, eze na-anara ya akwụkwọ ndị ahụ were agụba ode akwụkwọ chakasịa ha, wụnye ha nʼọkụ. O megidere otu a tutu ruo mgbe ọ wụnyechara akwụkwọ ndị ahụ niile nʼọkụ.
24 Yet they were not afraide, nor rent their garmets, neither the King, nor any of his seruants, that heard all these wordes.
Eze na ndị so ya nọdụ nʼoge a na-agụpụta akwụkwọ a atụghị egwu ọbụla; ha adọwakwaghị uwe ha igosi obi ọjọọ.
25 Neuerthelesse, Elnathan, and Delaiah, and Gemariah had besought the King, that he would not burne ye roule: but he would not heare them.
Ọ bụ ezie na Elnatan na Delaya na Gemaraya rịọrọ eze sị ya adọkasịla akwụkwọ ndị ahụ, ma o geghị ha ntị.
26 But the King commanded Ierahmeel the sonne of Hammelech, and Seraiah the sonne of Azriel, and Shelemiah the sonne of Abdiel, to take Baruch the scribe, and Ieremiah the Prophet, but the Lord hid them.
Kama eze nyere Jerameel otu nʼime ụmụ eze, na Seraya nwa Azriel, na Shelemaya nwa Abdeel iwu ijide Baruk ode akwụkwọ, na Jeremaya onye amụma, ma Onyenwe anyị zoro ha.
27 Then the word of the Lord came to Ieremiah (after that the King had burnt the roule and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Ieremiah) saying,
Mgbe eze suresịrị akwụkwọ ahụ na okwu niile nke Baruk dere nʼime ya ọkụ, bụ okwu nke Jeremaya kpọpụtara site nʼọnụ ya, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru Jeremaya ntị sị ya:
28 Take thee againe another roule and write in it all ye former words that were in the first roule which Iehoiakim the King of Iudah hath burnt,
“Werekwa akwụkwọ ọzọ dee okwu ndị ahụ niile e dere nʼakwụkwọ nke mbụ ahụ, nke Jehoiakim eze Juda kpọrọ ọkụ.
29 And thou shalt say to Iehoiakim King of Iudah, Thus saith the Lord, Thou hast burnt this roule, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, that the King of Babel shall certainly come and destroye this land, and shall take thence both man and beast?
Ọzọkwa, gwa Jehoiakim eze Juda sị ya, ‘otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Ị kpọrọ akwụkwọ ndị ahụ ọkụ, kwuo sị, “Gịnị mere i ji dee nʼime ya na eze Babilọn aghaghị ịbịa bibie ala a, gbuchapụ ndị niile nọ nʼime ya, ma mmadụ ma anụmanụ?”
30 Therefore thus saith the Lord of Iehoiakim King of Iudah, Hee shall haue none to sit vpon the throne of Dauid, and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heate, and in the night to the frost.
Nʼihi ya, ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru banyere Jehoiakim eze Juda; Ọ gaghị amụta onye ga-anọ nʼocheeze Devid. Ọzọ, a ga-atụfu ozu ya nʼebe igirigi nke abalị ga-adakwasị ya, ebe okpomọkụ nke ehihie ga-erute ya.
31 And I will visite him and his seede, and his seruants for their iniquitie, and I will bring vpon them, and vpon the inhabitants of Ierusalem, and vpon the men of Iudah all the euil that I haue pronounced against them: but they would not heare.
Aga m ata ya na ụmụ ya, na ndị ozi ya ahụhụ nʼihi ajọ omume ha. Aga m eme ka ihe ọjọọ ahụ m kwuru ihe banyere ya bịakwasị ha na ndị niile bi na Jerusalem, na ndị Juda niile, nʼihi na ha jụrụ ige m ntị.’”
32 Then tooke Ieremiah another roule, and gaue it Baruch the scribe the sonne of Neriah, which wrote therein at the mouth of Ieremiah all the wordes of the booke which Iehoiakim King of Iudah had burnt in the fire, and there were added besides them many like wordes.
Ya mere, Jeremaya weere akwụkwọ ọzọ nye Baruk ode akwụkwọ, bụ nwa Neraya, dịka Jeremaya na-akpọpụta okwu, Baruk depụtakwara nʼakwụkwọ okwu ndị ahụ niile, nke Jehoiakim eze Juda surere nʼọkụ. A tụkwasịkwara nʼelu ha ọtụtụ okwu ndị ọzọ nke dịka ha.
