< Jeremiah 28 >
1 And it came to pass the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, and in the fifth month, that Hananiah the son of Azur the prophet, which was of Gibeon, spake unto me in the house of YHWH, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,
Mu mwezi ogwokutaano ogw’omwaka gwe gumu, gwe mwaka ogwokuna, obufuzi bwa Zeddekiya kabaka wa Yuda nga bw’akatandika, nnabbi Kananiya omwana wa Azuri eyali abeera e Gibyoni n’aŋŋambira mu nnyumba ya Mukama nga bakabona n’abantu bonna we bali nti,
2 Thus speaketh YHWH of hosts, the Elohim of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
“Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, ‘Nzija kumenya ekikoligo kya kabaka w’e Babulooni.
3 Within two full years will I bring again into this place all the vessels of YHWH 's house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried them to Babylon:
Emyaka ebiri nga teginnaggwaako, ndikomyawo ebintu by’omu nnyumba ya Mukama mu kifo kino, Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni bye yaggya wano n’abitwala e Babulooni.
4 And I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, that went into Babylon, saith YHWH: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.
Era ndikomyawo wano Yekoyakini mutabani wa Yekoyakimu kabaka wa Yuda n’abantu abalala bonna abaava mu Yuda abaatwalibwa e Babulooni,’ bw’ayogera Mukama, ‘kubanga ndimenya ekikoligo kya kabaka w’e Babulooni.’”
5 Then the prophet Jeremiah said unto the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people that stood in the house of YHWH,
Awo nnabbi Yeremiya n’addamu mu bunnabbi bwa Kananiya nga ne bakabona n’abantu bonna we bali bayimiridde mu nnyumba ya Mukama, n’agamba nti,
6 Even the prophet Jeremiah said, Amein: YHWH do so: YHWH perform thy words which thou hast prophesied, to bring again the vessels of YHWH 's house, and all that is carried away captive, from Babylon into this place.
“Amiina! Bw’atyo Mukama bw’aba akola! Mukama atuukirize ebigambo by’oyogedde ng’akomyawo ebintu eby’omu nnyumba ya Mukama era n’abawambe bonna abakomyewo mu kifo kino okuva mu Babulooni.
7 Nevertheless hear thou now this word that I speak in thine ears, and in the ears of all the people;
Wabula, wuliriza kye ŋŋenda okwogera ng’owuliriza n’abantu bano bonna nga bawulira.
8 The prophets that have been before me and before thee of old prophesied both against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, and of evil, and of pestilence.
Okuva edda n’edda bannabbi abaatusooka, ggwe nange baategeezanga kubaawo kwa ntalo, na bikangabwa na kawumpuli okugwa ku mawanga n’obwakabaka obw’amaanyi.
9 The prophet which prophesieth of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall the prophet be known, that YHWH hath truly sent him.
Naye nnabbi eyategeeza obunnabbi obw’emirembe ajja kulabibwa nga ddala atumiddwa Mukama era ng’obubaka bw’ategeeza butuukiridde.”
10 Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from off the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and brake it.
Awo nnabbi Kananiya n’alyoka akwata ekikoligo ekyali ku nsingo ya Yeremiya n’akimenya,
11 And Hananiah spake in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus saith YHWH; Even so will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from the neck of all nations within the space of two full years. And the prophet Jeremiah went his way.
n’alyoka ayogera eri abantu bonna nti, “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, ‘Mu ngeri y’emu bw’eti, bwe ndimenya ekikoligo ekya Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni okuva ku mawanga gonna mu myaka ebiri.’” Naye ye nnabbi Yeremiya n’avaawo ne yeetambulira.
12 Then the word of YHWH came unto Jeremiah the prophet, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
Bwe waayitawo ebbanga ttono nga nnabbi Kananiya amenye ekikoligo ku nsingo ya Yeremiya, ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Yeremiya nti,
13 Go and tell Hananiah, saying, Thus saith YHWH; Thou hast broken the yokes of wood; but thou shalt make for them yokes of iron.
“Genda ogambe Kananiya nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, Omenye ekikoligo kya muti naye mu kifo kyakyo ojja kufunamu kikoligo kya kyuma.
14 For thus saith YHWH of hosts, the Elohim of Israel; I have put a yoke of iron upon the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they shall serve him: and I have given him the beasts of the field also.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, Nditeeka ekikoligo eky’ekyuma mu nsingo z’amawanga gano gonna baweereze Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni era balimuweereza. Ndimuwa obuyinza n’ensolo azifuge.’”
15 Then said the prophet Jeremiah unto Hananiah the prophet, Hear now, Hananiah; YHWH hath not sent thee; but thou makest this people to trust in a lie.
Awo nnabbi Yeremiya n’agamba nnabbi Kananiya nti, “Wuliriza, Kananiya! Mukama tannakutuma naye ggwe owalirizza eggwanga lino okwesiga obulimba.
16 Therefore thus saith YHWH; Behold, I will cast thee from off the face of the earth: this year thou shalt die, because thou hast taught rebellion against YHWH.
Noolwekyo kino Mukama kyagamba nti, ‘Ndikumpi okukuggya ku nsi. Omwaka guno gwennyini ogenda kufa, kubanga oyigirizza abantu okujeemera Mukama.’”
17 So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.
Mu mwezi ogw’omusanvu ogw’omwaka gwe gumu, Kananiya n’afa.
