Jeremiah 29
1 And these are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem unto the residue of the elders of the exiles, and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people whom Nebuchadnezzar had carried away into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon;
Dagitoy dagiti sasao a nailanad iti nalukot a pagbasaan nga impatulod ni Jeremias manipud Jerusalem kadagiti nabatbati a panglakayen kadagiti natiliw, kadagiti papadi, kadagiti profeta, ken kadagiti amin a tattao nga impanaw ni Nebucadnezar a kas balud manipud Jerusalem nga impanna idiay Babilonia.
2 (After king Jechonyah and the queen-mother, and the court-officers, the princes of Judah and Jerusalem, and the carpenters, and the locksmiths, were departed from Jerusalem; )
Daytoy ket kalpasan a naipanaw manipud Jerusalem ni Jehoiachin nga ari, ti reyna, dagiti nangangato nga opisial, dagiti mangidadaulo iti Juda ken Jerusalem, ken dagiti nalaing a pumapanday.
3 By the hand of El'assah the son of Shaphan, and Gemaryah the son of Chilkiyah, [whom Zedekiah the king of Judah sent unto Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, ] saying,
Impatulodna daytoy a nalukot a pagbasaan babaen kenni Elasa a putot ni Sapan, kenni Gemaria a putot ni Hilkia nga imbaon ni Zedekias nga ari ti Juda a mapan kenni Nebucadnezar nga ari ti Babilonia.
4 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, unto all the exiles, whom I have caused to be carried into exile from Jerusalem unto Babylon,
Kastoy ti nailanad iti nalukot a pagbasaan, “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin a Dios ti Israel kadagiti amin a natiliw ken impaipanawko manipud Jerusalem a naipan a kas balud idiay Babilonia,
5 Build ye houses, and dwell therein; and plant gardens, and eat their fruit;
'Mangipatakderkayo kadagiti balbalay ket pagnaedanyo dagitoy. Mulaanyo dagiti pagmulaan ket kanenyo ti ibunga dagitoy.
6 Take ye 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 ye may multiply there, and not be diminished.
Mangasawakayo ket aganakkayo iti lallaki ken babbai. Ket pangasawaenyo dagiti annakyo a lallaki, ken panagsawaenyo dagiti annakyo a babbai. Bay-anyo nga aganakda iti lallaki ken babbai ken umadokayo sadiay a saan ket a bumassit ti bilangyo.
7 And seek the welfare of the city whither I have banished you, and pray in its behalf unto the Lord; for in its welfare shall ye fare well.
Ti pagsayaatan ti siudad a nangipanak kadakayo a kas balud ti aramidenyo, ken agkararagkayo kaniak para iti daytoy agsipud ta addanto kappia kadakayo no natalna daytoy.'
8 For thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Let not your prophets, that are in the midst of you, and your diviners, deceive you, and do not hearken to your dreams which ye cause to be dreamt;
Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin a Dios ti Israel, 'Saanyo nga itulok nga allilawendakayo dagiti profeta nga adda kadakayo ken dagiti mammoyonyo ken saankayo a mamati kadagiti matagtagainepyo.
9 For with falsehood do they prophesy unto you in my name: I have not sent them, saith the Lord.
Ta inaallilaw ti ipadpadtoda kadakayo iti naganko. Saanko ida nga imbaon—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.'
10 For thus hath said the Lord, Because only after the accomplishment of seventy years for Babylon, will I visit you, and fulfill respecting you my good word, in causing you to return to this place.
Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, 'Inton inturayannakayon ti Babilonia iti pitopulo a tawen, tulongankayo ken ipatungpalko ti nasayaat nga imbagak nga isublikayo iti daytoy a lugar.
11 For I alone know the thoughts that I entertain respecting you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you a [happy] future and hope.
Ta ammok a mismo dagiti planok para kadakayo—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—dagiti plano para iti kappia a saan ket a didigra, nga ikkankayo iti nasayaat a masakbayan ken namnama.
12 And you will call upon me, and ye will go and will pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.
Ket umawagkayonto kaniak, ken agkararagkayto kaniak ket denggenkayto.
13 And ye will seek me, and shall find me, for ye will search for me with all your heart.
Ta birokendakto ket masarakandakto, agsipud ta binirokdak iti amin a pusoyo.
14 And I will be found of you, saith the Lord; and I will bring back your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith the Lord; and I will cause you to return unto the place whence I have banished you.
Ket masarakandakto—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—ket isublik ti sigud a nasayaat a kasasaadyo; ummongenkayto manipud kadagiti amin a nasion ken luglugar a nangiwarawaraak kadakayo—ta isublikayto iti lugar a naggapuanyo manipud iti lugar nga intulokko a pakaipananyo a kas balud.'
15 Because ye have said, The Lord hath raised us up prophets in Babylon.
Agsipud ta kinunayo a nangisaad ni Yahweh kadagiti profeta para kadakami idiay Babilonia,
16 But thus hath said the Lord concerning the king that sitteth upon the throne of David, and concerning all the people that dwell in this city, your brethren that are not gone forth with you into exile;
kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh iti ari a nakatugaw iti trono ni David ken kadagiti amin a tattao nga agigian pay laeng iti dayta a siudad, dagiti kakabsatyo a saan a nairaman kadakayo a naipanaw a kas balud—
17 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Behold, I will send out against them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence; and I will render them like the detestable figs, that cannot be eaten, from being so bad.
kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, 'Kitaenyo, umadanin ti panangiyegko kadakuada iti kampilan, nakaro a panagbisin ken saksakit. Ta pagbalinekto ida a kasla nalungsot nga igos a saan a mabalin a kanen.
18 And I will pursue after them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will make them a horror unto all the kingdoms of the earth, a curse, and an astonishment, and a derision, and a disgrace, among all the nations whither I have driven them;
Ket kamatekto ida babaen iti kampilan, nakaro a panagbisin ken angol ket pagbalinek ida a makapakintayeg iti panagkita dagiti amin a nasion iti rabaw ti daga— maysa a nakabutbuteng, usarendanto ti nagan dagitoy no adda ilunodda, ken maysa a nakababain a banag kadagiti nasion a nangiwarawaraak kadakuada.
19 For the reason that they have not hearkened to my words, saith the Lord, since I sent unto them my servants the prophets, causing them to rise up early and sending them; but ye would not hear, saith the Lord.
Daytoy ket gapu ta saanda a dimngeg iti saok— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— nga impakaammok kadakuada babaen kadagiti adipenko a profeta. Namin-adu nga imbaonko ida, ngem saankayo a dimngeg— kastoy ti pakaamo ni Yahweh.'
20 But ye—hear ye the word of the Lord, all ye exiles whom I have sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Isu a dakayo a mismo, dumngegkayo iti sao ni Yahweh, aminkayo a naipanaw a kas balud manipud Jerusalem a naipan idiay Babilonia,
21 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning Achab the son of Kolayah, and of Zedekiah the son of Ma'asseyah, who prophesy unto you in my name falsehood, Behold, I will give them up into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon: and he shall smite them before your eyes.
'Kastoy ti ibagak, siak a ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin a Dios ti Israel maipanggep kenni Ahab a putot ni Kolaiah ken ni Zedekias a putot ni Maaseias, a siuulbod a nagipadto kadakayo babaen iti naganko: Kitaenyo, umadanin ti panangiyawatko kadakuada iti ima ni Nebucadnezar nga ari ti Babilonia. Patayennanto ida iti sangoananyo.
22 And a curse shall be derived from them for all the exiles of Judah who are in Babylon, saying, “May the Lord make thee like Zedekiah and like Achab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire;”
Ket addanto lunod nga ibaga dagiti amin a naipanaw iti Juda a kas balud idiay Babilonia maipanggep kadagitoy a tattao. Kastoyto ti lunod nga ibagada: Aramidento koma ni Yahweh kadakayo ti kas iti napasamak kenni Zedekias ken Ahab, a pinuoran ti ari ti Babilonia.
23 Because they have done scandalous deeds in Israel, and have committed adultery with the wives of their neighbors, and have spoken in my name falsehood, which I had not commanded them; whereas I am the one that know, and am the witness, saith the Lord.
Mapasamakto daytoy gapu kadagiti nakababain a banag nga inaramidda iti Israel idi nakikamalalada kadagiti assawa dagiti kaarrubada ken nangipakaammoda kadagiti saan a pudno a mensahe babaen iti naganko, banbanag a saanko a pulos nga imbilin kadakuada nga ibagada. Ta siak ti makaammo; siak ti saksi— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.'”
24 And to Shema'yahu the Nechelamite shalt thou say, as followeth,
“Maipanggep kenni Semaias a taga-Nehelam, kastoy ti naibaga:
25 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Because thou hast sent in thy name letters unto all the people that are at Jerusalem, and to Zephanyah the son of Ma'asseyah the priest, and to all the priests, saying,
“Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: “Gapu ta nangipatulodka kadagiti surat kadagiti amin a tattao iti Jerusalem iti bukodmo a nagan, kenni Zefanias a putot ni Maaseias a padi, ken kadagiti amin a papadi, a kinunam,
26 The Lord hath appointed thee priest in the place of Jehoyada' the priest, that ye should be superintendents in the house of the Lord, for every man that is mad, and that prophesieth, that thou shouldst put him in the stocks, and in prison:
'Pinagbalinnaka ni Yahweh a padi imbes a ni Jehoiada a padi, tapno sika ti makaammo iti pagsayaatan ti balay ni Yahweh. Sika ti makaammo kadagiti amin a tattao nga aginlalaing ken mamagbalin kadagiti bagbagida a profeta. Rumbeng nga ibalud ken kawaram ida.
27 And now, why hast thou not rebuked Jeremiah of 'Anathoth, who prophesieth to you?
Isu nga ita, apay a saanmo a binabalaw ni Jeremias iti Anatot, a pinagbalinna a profeta ti bagina a maibusor kenka?
28 For the reason that he hath sent unto us to Babylon saying, It will last a long time: build ye houses, and dwell therein; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit thereof.
Ta nangipatulod isuna iti mensahe kadakami idiay Babilonia a kunana, 'Nabayagto daytoy a tiempo. Mangipatakderkayo kadagiti balbalay ket pagnaedanyo dagitoy, ken agmulakayo ket kanenyo dagiti ibunga dagitoy.''”
29 And Zephanyah the priest read the letter before the ears of Jeremiah the prophet.
Binasa ni Zephaniah a padi daytoy a surat kenni Jeremias a profeta.
30 Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah, saying,
Isu nga immay ti sao ni Yahweh kenni Jeremias a kunana,
31 Send to all the exiles, saying, Thus hath said the Lord concerning Shema'yah the Nechlamite, Whereas Shema'yah hath prophesied unto you, while I have not sent him, and he hath caused you to rely on a falsehood:
“Mangipatulodka iti mensahe kadagiti naipanaw a kas balud, ibagam, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipapan kenni Shemaias a taga-Nehelam: Gapu ta nagipadto ni Shemaias kadakayo nga uray saanko nga imbaon isuna; gapu ta inallukoynakayo a mamati iti inuulbod,
32 Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will inflict punishment on Shema'yah the Nechlamite, and on his seed; he shall not have a man to dwell in the midst of this people; and he shall not behold the good that I am doing for my people, saith the Lord; because he hath spoken revolt against the Lord.
kastoy ngarud ti kuna ni Yahweh: Dumngegkayo, umadanin ti panangdusak kenni Shemaias a taga-Nehelam ken kadagiti kaputotanna. Awanto ti agtalinaed a kaputotanna. Saannanto a makita ti nasayaat nga aramidekto kadagiti tattaok— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—ta inwaragawagna ti panagsukir maibusor kaniak, siak a ni Yahweh.'”
