< Jeremiah 29 >

1 Now these are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem to the residue of the elders which were carried away captives, and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people whom Nebuchadnezzar had carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon;
Na da gobele salasu dunu, balofede dunu, ouligisu dunu amola dunu huluane amo Nebiuga: denese da Yelusaleme amoga lale, afugili Ba: bilone sogega oule asi, ilima meloa dedene i.
2 (After that Jeconiah the king, and the queen, and the eunuchs, the princes of Judah and Jerusalem, and the carpenters, and the smiths, were departed from Jerusalem; )
Musa: Yuda hina bagade Yehoiagini, ea: me, hina bagade diasu eagene ouligisu dunu amola bagade dawa: su hawa: hamosu dunu huluane da mugululi asi dagoi ba: i. Amogalu fa: no, na da meloa dedene i.
3 By the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan, and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent to Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon) saying,
Hina bagade Sedegaia da Elasa (Sia: ifa: ne egefe) amola Gemalaia (Hiligaia egefe) amo hina bagade Nebiuga: denese ilima asunasimusa: dawa: i. Na da na meloa dedene, elama i.
4 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, to all that are carried away captives, whom I have caused to be carried away from Jerusalem to Babylon;
Na da agoane dedei, “Hina Gode Bagadedafa, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode, da dunu huluane amo Nebiuga: denese da Yelusaleme amoga lale, Ba: bilone amoga afugili oule masa: ne, Hina Gode da logo doasi, ilima amane sia: sa,
5 Build you houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them;
‘Dilia diasu gaguli, hahawane fima. Ifabi bugili, ha: i manu faili manu.
6 Take you wives, and beget sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters; that you may be increased there, and not diminished.
Uda lasu hou hamone, mano lama. Amola dilia mano da uda lamu amola mano lalelegema: mu. Dilia fi idi da mae fonobone, heda: mu da defea.
7 And seek the peace of the city where I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray to the LORD for it: for in the peace thereof shall you have peace.
Na da dili Ba: bilone moilai bai bagadega udigili hawa: hamoma: ne, logo fodoi. Amaiba: le, amo moilai bai bagade fidima: ne, dilia hawa: hamoma. Amo moilai bai bagade fi ilia da hahawane bagade gaguiwane dialoma: ne, Nama sia: ne gadoma. Bai ilia da bagade gaguiwane ba: sea, dilia amola da bagade gaguiwane ba: mu.
8 For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Let not your prophets and your diviners, that be in the middle of you, deceive you, neither listen to your dreams which you cause to be dreamed.
Na, Hina Gode, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode, da dilima sisasu iaha. Balofede dunu dilia gilisili esala da hobea misunu hou dawa: be olelesa. Be ilia da ogogosa, amola dilima ogogosa: besa: le, ilia sia: mae nabima. Ilia simasia ba: i liligi mae dawa: ma.
9 For they prophesy falsely to you in my name: I have not sent them, says the LORD.
Ilia da Na Dioba: le, dilima ogogosa. Na da amo dunu hamedafa asunasi. Na, Hina Gode Bagadedafa da sia: i dagoi.’
10 For thus says the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, ‘Ba: bilone fi ilia dilima ouligibi ode70 da gidigisia, Na da dilima asigi hou bu olelemu. Na da dilia sogedafa amoga buhagima: ne oule misunu.
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
Na fawane da Na dilima imunu ilegei dawa: Amo ilegei da dilima wadela: su hame be hahawane hou fawane imunu. Amo ilegei da dilima hobea misunu hou, hahawane esaloma: beyale bagade hou amo dilia hanai liligi, amo dilima iasimu.
12 Then shall you call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I will listen to you.
Amasea, dilia da Nama wele sia: mu. Dilia da Nama sia: ne gadomu, amola Na da dilima bu adole imunu.
13 And you shall seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me with all your heart.
Dilia da Na hogoi helemu amola dilia da Na ba: mu. Bai dilia da dilia dogoga asigi dawa: su huluanedafa amoga Na hogoi helemu.
14 And I will be found of you, said the LORD: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places where I have driven you, says the LORD; and I will bring you again into the place from where I caused you to be carried away captive.
Dafawane! Dilia da Na ba: mu amola Na da dilia sogedafa amoga bu oule masunu. Na da soge huluane amola sogebi huluane amoga Na da musa: dili afagogoi, amoga Na da dili bu gagadole, dilia sogedafa (amoga Na da dili musa: mugululi masa: ne fadegai) amoga bu oule masunu. Na Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.’
15 Because you have said, The LORD has raised us up prophets in Babylon;
Dilia da sia: sa, Hina Gode da Ba: bilone soge ganodini balofede dunu dilima iaha.
16 Know that thus says the LORD of the king that sits on the throne of David, and of all the people that dwells in this city, and of your brothers that are not gone forth with you into captivity;
Hina Gode Ea sia: nabima, ‘Na da hina bagade amo da Da: ibidi ea musa: ouligi soge amo ouligisa, amola dilia sosogo fi dunu amo da dili gilisili hame mugululi asi,
17 Thus says the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will send on them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figs, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil.
amo dunuma Na da gegesu amola ha: amola olo ilima iasimu. Na da ili figi fage dasaiba: le, manu da hamedei, amo defele hamomu.
18 And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, and an astonishment, and an hissing, and a reproach, among all the nations where I have driven them:
Na da gegesu amola ha: ga bogosu amola oloi bagade amoga ili sefasimu. Amola osobo bagade fifi asi gala da ili ba: beba: le, beda: iwane fofogadigimu. Na da soge hisu hisu amoga ili afagogomu. Amola amogai esalebe dunu da ili ba: beba: le, beda: iwane fofogadigimu. Ilia da ilima oufesega: mu, amola ilia dioba: le gagabusu aligima: ne ilegemu.
19 Because they have not listened to my words, says the LORD, which I sent to them by my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but you would not hear, said the LORD.
Ilia da Na sia: amo Na da balofede dunu ilia lafidili iasilalu amo hame nababeba: le, amo se nabasu da ilima doaga: mu. Ilia da nabimu higa: i galu.
20 Hear you therefore the word of the LORD, all you of the captivity, whom I have sent from Jerusalem to Babylon:
Dilia dunu huluane Na da Ba: bilone sogega mugululi masa: ne asunasi! Na, Hina Gode, Na sia: nabima!’
21 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, of Ahab the son of Kolaiah, and of Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, which prophesy a lie to you in my name; Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall slay them before your eyes;
Hina Gode Bagadedafa, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode, da A: iha: be (Goula: ia egefe) amola Sedegaia (Ma: iasia egefe) ela hou olelei dagoi. Ela da Ea Dioba: le, dilima ogogolala. Hina Gode da A: iha: be amola Sedegaia amo hina bagade Nebiuga: denese ea lobo da: iya amoma imunu. Amasea, Nebiuga: denese da dilia ba: ma: ne, amo dunu medole legemu.
22 And of them shall be taken up a curse by all the captivity of Judah which are in Babylon, saying, The LORD make you like Zedekiah and like Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire;
Hobea, Yelusaleme dunu da Ba: bilone sogega mugululi asi, amo ilia da gagabusu aligima: ne ilegemusa: dawa: sea, da agoane sia: mu, ‘Nebiuga: denese da Sedegaia amola A: iha: be ela esaleawane gobesili, ela da bogoi. Hina Gode da dima amo defele hamoma: ne, na da dima gagabusu aligima: ne ilegesa.’
23 Because they have committed villainy in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbors’ wives, and have spoken lying words in my name, which I have not commanded them; even I know, and am a witness, says the LORD.
Amo hou da elama doaga: mu, bai ilia da wadela: ledafa hamobeba: le. Ela da inia uda adole lasu amola Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le ogogosu. Ela da Hina Gode Ea higa: i liligi hamoi. E da ela hamoi amo ba: i dagoi amola fofada: su amo ganodini, E da ba: su dunu esala. Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi.”
24 Thus shall you also speak to Shemaiah the Nehelamite, saying,
Hina Gode Bagadedafa, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode, da nama na da Siema: ia (Nihelame dunu) ema sia: ma: ne sia: i. Bai Siema: ia da Yelusaleme fi dunu huluane amola gobele salasu dunu Sefanaia (Ma: iasia egefe) amola eno gobele salasu dunu huluane ilima meloa dedene i. Siema: ia da Sefanaiama amane dedene i,
25 Thus speaks the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Because you have sent letters in your name to all the people that are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, and to all the priests, saying,
26 The LORD has made you priest in the stead of Jehoiada the priest, that you should be officers in the house of the LORD, for every man that is mad, and makes himself a prophet, that you should put him in prison, and in the stocks.
“Hina Gode da di Yihoiada amo ea sogebi lama: ne gobele salasu hamoi. Amola wali di da bisili ouligisu dunu Debolo Diasuga gala. Dia hawa: hamosu da agoane gala. Nowa doulasi dunu hisu da balofede hi sia: sea, amo di sia: inega la: gili, ouli bulu agoane ea galogoa gasisalima.
27 Now therefore why have you not reproved Jeremiah of Anathoth, which makes himself a prophet to you?
Di da abuliba: le amo hou Yelemaia (A: nadode dunu) ema hame hamobela: ? Bai e da ogogole balofede ea dioba: le, ninia fi dunu ilima sia: dalu.
28 For therefore he sent to us in Babylon, saying, This captivity is long: build you houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
Ea logo hedofama! Bai e da dunu fi Ba: bilone sogega esala ilima ilia da ode bagohame amogawi udigili hawa: hamomuba: le, ilia da diasu gaguli, moi dogole, ha: i manu bugili, amola amo faili moma: ne sia: i.”
29 And Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the ears of Jeremiah the prophet.
Sefanaia da nama amo meloa idili i.
30 Then came the word of the LORD to Jeremiah, saying,
Amalalu, Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i,
31 Send to all them of the captivity, saying, Thus says the LORD concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite; Because that Shemaiah has prophesied to you, and I sent him not, and he caused you to trust in a lie:
32 Therefore thus says the LORD; Behold, I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite, and his seed: he shall not have a man to dwell among this people; neither shall he behold the good that I will do for my people, said the LORD; because he has taught rebellion against the LORD.
“Dunu huluane Ba: bilone sogega mugululi asi, ilima Siema: ia ea hou olelema: ne, Na sia: adosima, amane, ‘Na, Hina Gode, da Siema: ia amola egaga fi huluane ilima se imunu. Na da e hamedafa asunasi. Be e da ogogole e da balofede dunu sia: i, amola dilima bagade ogogoi. Na da fa: no Na fi dunuma hahawane hamomu. Be e da amo hou mae ba: le, bogomu. Bai e da Na fi ilia Nama odoga: ma: ne olelei. Na, Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi.’”
