< Jeremiah 37 >

1 And King Zedekiah the sonne of Iosiah reigned for Coniah the sonne of Iehoiakim, whome Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel made King in the land of Iudah.
Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia el akleumyalak Zedekiah wen natul Josiah, tuh elan tokosrala lun Judah in aolul Jehoiachin wen natul Jehoiakim.
2 But neither he, nor his seruants, nor the people of the land would obey the wordes of the Lord, which he spake by the ministerie of the Prophet Ieremiah.
Tusruktu Zedekiah ac mwet leum lal ac mwet uh tiana akos kas ma LEUM GOD El ase nu sik in fahkak.
3 And Zedekiah the King sent Iehucal the sonne of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah the sonne of Maaseiah the Priest to the Prophet Ieremiah, saying, Pray now vnto the Lord our God for vs.
Tokosra Zedekiah el supwalma Jehucal wen natul Shelemiah, ac mwet tol Zephaniah wen natul Maaseiah, in siyuk sik in aol mutunfacl sesr in pre nu sin LEUM GOD lasr.
4 (Now Ieremiah went in and out among the people: for they had not put him into the prison.
In pacl se inge nga soenna kauli in presin, ac nga srakna sukosok in forfor inmasrlon mwet uh.
5 Then Pharaohs hoste was come out of Egypt: and when the Caldeans that besieged Ierusalem, heard tidings of them, they departed from Ierusalem)
Mwet mweun lun Babylonia elos kuhlusya Jerusalem, tusruktu ke elos lohngak lah un mwet mweun lun Egypt elos tupalla tari masrol lun Egypt, elos folokla.
6 Then came the worde of the Lord vnto the Prophet Ieremiah, saying,
Na LEUM GOD lun Israel, El fahk nu sik
7 Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, Thus shall ye say to the King of Iudah, that sent you vnto me to inquire of me, Behold, Pharaohs hoste, which is come forth to helpe you, shall returne to Egypt into their owne land.
in fahkang nu sel Zedekiah, “Mwet mweun lun Egypt elos tuku in kasrekom, tusruktu elos ac folokla nu in facl selos.
8 And the Caldeans shall come againe, and fight against this citie, and take it and burne it with fire.
Na mwet Babylonia ac sifilpa foloko. Elos ac fah mweuni siti uh, sruokya, ac esukak.
9 Thus sayth the Lord, Deceiue not your selues, saying, The Caldeans shall surely depart from vs: for they shall not depart.
Nga, LEUM GOD, fahk nu suwos in tia sifacna kiapwekowos ac nunku mu mwet Babylonia elos ac tia foloko, mweyen elos ac foloko.
10 For though ye had smitten the whole hoste of the Caldeans that fight against you, and there remained but wounded men among them, yet should euery man rise vp in his tent, and burne this citie with fire.
Kowos finne kutangla un mwet mweun lun Babylonia nufon ac mwet kinet mukena lula oan in lohm nuknuk selos, mwet ingan ac tukakek ac furreak siti se inge nwe ke apatla.”
11 When the hoste of the Caldeans was broken vp from Ierusalem, because of Pharaohs armie,
Un mwet mweun lun Babylonia elos folokla liki acn Jerusalem ke elos etauk lah mwet mweun lun Egypt uh apkuranme.
12 Then Ieremiah went out of Ierusalem to goe into the land of Beniamin, separating himselfe thence from among the people.
Ouinge nga ako in mukuila liki acn Jerusalem ac som nu in facl sin Benjamin nga in eis ip luk ke acn lun sou.
13 And when hee was in the gate of Beniamin, there was a chiefe officer, whose name was Iriiah, the sonne of Shelemiah, the sonne of Hananiah, and he tooke Ieremiah the Prophet, saying, Thou fleest to the Caldeans.
Tusruktu ke nga sun Mutunpot Benjamin, mwet kol lun mwet karingin mutunpot uh, su inel pa Irijah wen natul Shelemiah ma natul Hananaiah, el tulokinyuwi ac fahk, “Kom kaingkinkutla in som kasru mwet Babylonia!”
14 Then sayde Ieremiah, That is false, I flee not to the Caldeans: but he would not heare him: so Iriiah tooke Ieremiah, and brought him to the princes.
Na nga fahk, “Mo! Nga tia kaing.” Tusruktu Irijah el tia lohngyu, a el sruokyuwi ac usyula nu yurin mwet leum.
15 Wherefore the princes were angry with Ieremiah, and smote him, and layde him in prison in the house of Iehonathan the scribe: for they had made that the prison.
Elos arulana kasrkusrak sik ac sap in sringsring nga, ac kaliyuwi in lohm sel Jonathan, mwet sim lun tokosra, mweyen orekmakinyuk lohm sel nu ke iwen kapir.
16 When Ieremiah was entred into the dungeon, and into the prisons, and had remained there a long time,
Elos filiyuwi in sie fukil srisrik oan ye fohk uh, ac nga muta we ke pacl na loeloes.
17 Then Zedekiah the King sent, and tooke him out, and the King asked him secretly in his house, and said, Is there any worde from the Lord? And Ieremiah sayd, Yea: for, sayd he, thou shalt be deliuered into the hand of the King of Babel.
Tok Tokosra Zedekiah el sapla suliyu. Ke nga el mukena muta in lohm sel, el siyuk sik in lukma, “Ya oasr kutena kas sin LEUM GOD me?” Na nga topuk, “Oasr.” Na nga tafwelana in fahk, “Kom fah itukyang nu inpoun tokosra Babylonia.”
18 Moreouer, Ieremiah sayd vnto King Zedekiah, What haue I offended against thee, or against thy seruants, or against this people, that ye haue put me in prison?
Na nga siyuk, “Ma koluk fuka nga oru lain kom, ku lain mwet leum lom ac mwet inge, in pwanang kom filiyuwi in presin?
19 Where are nowe your prophets, which prophecied vnto you, saying, The King of Babel shall not come against you, nor against this land?
Pia mwet palu lom ma fahk mu tokosra lun Babylonia ac fah tia mweuni kom ku facl sum?
20 Therefore heare nowe, I pray thee, O my lorde the King: let my prayer be accepted before thee, that thou cause mee not to returne to the house of Iehonathan the scribe, least I die there.
Na inge, Leum Fulat luk, nga kwafe sum in porongo mwe siyuk luk. Nunak munas, nimet folokinyula nu in presin in lohm sel Jonathan. Kom fin supweyula, pwayena nga fah misa we.”
21 Then Zedekiah the King commanded, that they should put Ieremiah in the court of the prison, and that they should giue him dayly a piece of bread out of the bakers streete vntill all the bread in the citie were eaten vp. Thus Ieremiah remained in the court of the prison.
Na Tokosra Zedekiah el sapkin nga in kauli na inkalkal lun mwet san ke inkul sin tokosra. Nga mutana we, ac len nukewa ac utuku lof in bread se nak liki nien manman flao, nwe ke na lihsr bread in siti uh.
