Jeremiah 32
1 The word that has been to Jeremiah from YHWH in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah—it [is] the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar—
Ihe ndị a bụ okwu Onyenwe anyị nke rutere Jeremaya nʼafọ nke iri nke ọchịchị Zedekaya eze Juda, nke bụkwa afọ nke iri na asatọ nke ọchịchị Nebukadneza.
2 And then the forces of the king of Babylon are laying siege against Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet has been shut up in the court of the prison that [is] in the house of the king of Judah,
Nʼoge a, ndị agha Babilọn gbara Jerusalem gburugburu. E tinyekwara Jeremaya, bụ onye amụma nʼogige ụlọ ndị nche nke dị nʼụlọeze Juda.
3 where Zedekiah king of Judah has shut him up, saying, “Why are you prophesying, saying, Thus said YHWH: Behold, I am giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he has captured it;
Zedekaya eze Juda tụrụ ya mkpọrọ nʼebe ahụ, sị ya, “Gịnị mere i ji na-ebu amụma dị otu a. Nʼihi na ị na-asị, ‘Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ejikerela m inyefe gị na obodo a nʼaka eze Babilọn. Ọ ga-alụtakwa ya nʼagha.
4 and Zedekiah king of Judah does not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but is certainly given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and his mouth has spoken with his mouth, and his eyes see his eyes,
Zedekaya eze Juda agaghị agbapụ site nʼaka ndị Babilọn, nʼihi na a ga-enyefe ya nʼaka eze Babilọn, onye ya na ya ga-ekwurịtakwa okwu ihu na ihu. Zedekaya ga-ejikwa anya ya abụọ hụ eze Babilọn,
5 and he leads Zedekiah [to] Babylon, and there he is until My inspecting him—a declaration of YHWH—because you fight with the Chaldeans, you do not prosper.”
onye ga-eduru ya, bụ Zedekaya, gaa Babilọn, ebe ọ ga-anọ tutu ruo mgbe mụ, bụ Onyenwe anyị, mesiri ya ike. Ọ bụrụ na ibuso ndị Babilọn agha, ị gaghị emeri.’”
6 And Jeremiah says, “A word of YHWH has been to me, saying,
Jeremaya sịrị, “Okwu Onyenwe anyị rutere m ntị, sị,
7 Behold, Hanameel son of Shallum, your uncle, is coming to you, saying, Buy my field that [is] in Anathoth for yourself, for the right of redemption [is] yours to buy.”
Lee, Hanamel nwa Shalum, nwanne nna gị, ga-abịakwute gị, sị gị, ‘Zụrụ ala m dị nʼAnatot, nʼihi na ebe ị bụ onye ikwu m ọ bụ gị ka o ruuru ịzụ ya.’
8 And Hanameel, my uncle’s son, comes to me, according to the word of YHWH, to the court of the prison, and says to me, “Please buy my field that [is] in Anathoth, that [is] in the land of Benjamin, for the right of possession [is] yours, and redemption yours—buy [it] for yourself.” And I know that it [is] the word of YHWH,
“Mgbe ahụ, dịka Onyenwe anyị si kwuo ya, Hanamel nwa nwanne nna m bịakwutere m nʼogige ndị nche sị m, ‘Zụrụ ala m dị nʼAnatot, nʼime ala ndị Benjamin. Ebe ọ bụ ihe ruuru gị ịgbapụta ya ime ka ọ bụrụ nke gị, ọ bụ gị kwesiri ịzụ ya.’ “Amaara m na nke a bụ okwu Onyenwe anyị.
9 and I buy the field that [is] in Anathoth from Hanameel, my uncle’s son, and I weigh the money to him—seventeen shekels of silver.
Ya mere, azụrụ m ala ahụ dị nʼAnatot site nʼaka nwanna m Hanamel. Atụpụtara m ọlaọcha shekel iri na asaa ọnụahịa ala ahụ, jiri ya kwụọ ya ụgwọ.
10 And I write in a scroll, and seal, and cause witnesses to testify, and weigh the silver in balances;
Emesịa, etinyere m aka m nʼakwụkwọ ire ala ahụ, kaa ya akara, nyachie ya, nʼihu ndị akaebe. Atụkwara m ọlaọcha ahụ nʼihe ọtụtụ.
11 and I take the purchase scroll, the sealed one, according to law and custom, and the open one;
Eweere m akwụkwọ ịzụta ala ahụ a kara akara, nke a nyachikwara anyachi, ebe e dere ihe banyere ọzụzụ na orire nke ala ahụ, werekwa ụdị akwụkwọ ahụ nke a na-anyachighị anyachi,
12 and I give the purchase scroll to Baruch son of Neriah, son of Maaseiah, before the eyes of Hanameel, my uncle’s son, and before the eyes of the witnesses, those writing in the purchase scroll, before the eyes of all the Jews who are sitting in the court of the prison.
nyefee ha nʼaka Baruk nwa Neraya, nwa Mahseia, nʼihu Hanamel nwanna m, na nʼihu ndị akaebe ndị ọzọ, ndị aka ha dị nʼakwụkwọ ahụ, na nʼihu ndị Juu ndị ọzọ, ndị nọ nʼogige ụlọ ndị agha ahụ.
13 And I charge Baruch before their eyes, saying,
“Nʼihu ha, enyere m Baruk iwu ndị a sị ya,
14 “Thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: Take these scrolls, this purchase scroll, both the sealed one and the open one, and you have put them in an earthen vessel, that they may remain many days.
‘Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, bụ Chineke Izrel kwuru, Were akwụkwọ ndị a, ma nke a nyachiri anyachi, ma nke a na-anyachighị anyachi, tinye ha nʼime ite e ji ụrọ kpụọ, ebe ha ga-adị ogologo oge.
15 For thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: Houses and fields and vineyards are bought in this land again.”
Nʼihi na ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, bụ Chineke Izrel kwuru, a ga-emesịakwa zụọ ụlọ, ala ubi nakwa ubi vaịnị nʼala a.’
16 And I pray to YHWH after my giving the purchase scroll to Baruch son of Neriah, saying,
“Mgbe m nyechasịrị Baruk nwa Neraya akwụkwọ ndị ahụ, ekpere m ekpere nye Onyenwe anyị sị,
17 “Aah! Lord YHWH, behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power, and by Your outstretched arm; there is nothing too wonderful for You:
“Gị, Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị ọ bụ gị sitere nʼike gị dị ukwuu, na aka gị e setịrị eseti mee eluigwe na ụwa. O nweghị ihe ọbụla ị na-enweghị ike ime.
18 doing kindness to thousands, and repaying iniquity of fathers into the bosom of their sons after them; God, the great, the mighty, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name;
Ị na-egosi ịhụnanya nye ọtụtụ puku ndị mmadụ ma na-eweta ịta ahụhụ nye ụmụ site nʼihi mmehie nna ha. O Chineke dị ukwuu dịkwa ike, Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile bụ aha gị.
19 great in counsel, and mighty in act, in that Your eyes are open on all the ways of the sons of Adam, to give to each according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings;
Nzube gị dị ukwuu, otu a kwa akaọrụ gị dịkwa ukwuu. Anya gị ghere oghe nye ụzọ mmadụ niile. Ị na-akwụghachikwa onye ọbụla dịka ndụ ya na akaọrụ ya si dị.
20 in that you have done signs and wonders in the land of Egypt to this day, and in Israel, and among men, and You make for Yourself a name as [at] this day.
Ọ bụ gị mere ihe ịrịbama na ihe ebube dị iche iche nʼIjipt. Ị nọgidekwara na-arụ ha ruo taa, ma nʼala Izrel ma nʼetiti ndị niile nọ nʼụwa. Nʼihi ya, i meere onwe gị aha nke ka bụkwa nke gị nʼebe niile.
21 And You bring forth Your people Israel from the land of Egypt, with signs and with wonders, and by a strong hand, and by an outstretched arm, and by great fear,
Ọ bụ ihe ịrịbama na ọrụ ebube dị iche iche, nʼaka dị ike, na ogwe aka e setịpụrụ esetipụ, nʼihe oke egwu, ka i ji kpọpụta ndị gị Izrel site nʼIjipt.
22 and you give to them this land that you swore to their fathers to give to them, a land flowing with milk and honey,
Ị nyere ha ala a, nke ị ṅụrụ nʼiyi inye nna nna ha, ala mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru na ya.
23 and they come in, and possess it, and they have not listened to Your voice, and have not walked in Your law, all that which You laid a charge on them to do they have not done, and You proclaim all this calamity [to] them.
Ha batara nʼala a, nweta ya, ma ha jụrụ irubere gị isi, maọbụ jegharịa nʼiwu gị; ha emeghị ihe ndị i nyere ha nʼiwu mee. Nʼihi ya, i mere ka ihe ọjọọ ndị a bịakwasị ha.
24 Behold, the [siege] mounds have come to the city to capture it, and the city has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans who are fighting against it, because of the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence; and that which You have spoken has come to pass, and behold, You are seeing.
“Lee ka ndị iro si wuo ihe agha ha gburugburu mgbidi obodo a, ihe agha nke ha ga-eji lụta ya nʼagha. I werela obodo a nyefee ndị Babilọn na-ebuso ya agha nʼaka, nʼihi mma agha na ụnwụ, na oke ọrịa dị nʼime ya. Ihe i kwuru na ọ ga-eme emezuola, dịka i si ahụ ya ugbu a.
25 Yet You have said to me, O Lord YHWH, Buy the field for yourself with money, and cause witnesses to testify—and the city has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans!”
Ma ọ bụ ezie na a ga-enyefe obodo a nʼaka ndị Babilọn, ma gị, Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị gwara m sị, ‘Were ọlaọcha zụta ala ahụ. Zụkwaa ya nʼihu ndị akaebe.’”
26 And the word of YHWH is to Jeremiah, saying,
Mgbe ahụ, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru Jeremaya ntị sị ya,
27 “Behold, I [am] YHWH, God of all flesh: is anything too wonderful for Me?”
“Abụ m Onyenwe anyị, Chineke nke anụ ahụ niile bụ mmadụ. Ọ dị ihe ọbụla karịrị m ime?
28 Therefore, thus said YHWH: “Behold, I am giving this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he has captured it.
Ya mere, ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Ejikerela m ugbu a inyefe obodo a nʼaka ndị Babilọn, na nʼaka Nebukadneza eze Babilọn, onye ga-alụta ya nʼagha.
29 And the Chaldeans who are fighting against this city have come in, and they have set this city on fire, and have burned it—and the houses on whose roofs they made incense to Ba‘al, and poured out drink-offerings to other gods, so as to provoke Me to anger.
Ndị Babilọn ahụ na-ebuso obodo a agha, ga-abata nʼime ya, kpọọ ya ọkụ. Ha ga-akpọ ya ọkụ, ya na ụlọ niile dị nʼime ya, bụ ụlọ niile ahụ ndị bi nʼime ya nọ kpasuo m iwe, site nʼisure ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ nye chi Baal nʼelu ụlọ ha niile, na site nʼịwụsara chi ndị ọzọ onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ.
30 For the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah have been doing only evil in My eyes from their youth; for the sons of Israel are surely provoking Me with the work of their hands,” a declaration of YHWH.
“Ọ bụ naanị ihe ọjọọ ka ndị Izrel na ndị Juda mere nʼihu m site na mgbe ha bụ nwantakịrị. Nʼezie, ha esitela nʼihe ha ji aka mee kpasuo m iwe, ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
31 “For this city has been a cause of My anger and a cause of My fury, even from the day that they built it, and to this day—to turn it aside from before My face,
Site nʼoge e wuru ya ruo ugbu a, ndị bi nʼobodo a akpaliela iwe m na ọnụma m. Ya mere, aga m esite nʼihu m wezuga ha.
32 because of all the evil of the sons of Israel, and of the sons of Judah that they have done, so as to provoke Me—they, their kings, their heads, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Ndị Izrel na Juda, na ndị eze ha, na ndịisi ọchịchị ha, na ndị nchụaja ha, na ndị amụma ha, na ndị ikom Juda, ma ndị bi na Jerusalem, akpasuola m iwe site nʼihe ọjọọ niile ha mere.
33 And they turn the neck to Me, and not the face, and teaching them, rising early and teaching, and they are not listening to accept instruction.
Ha gbakụtara m azụ, jụ ilenye anya nʼebe m nọ. Ọ bụ ezie na m ziri ha ihe mgbe mgbe, ma ha jụrụ ige ntị, jụkwa ịnabata ịdọ aka na ntị m.
34 And they set their abominations in the house over which My Name is called, so as to defile it.
Ha doro oyiyi ihe arụ nʼụlọnsọ ahụ a kpọkwasịrị aha m, si otu a merụọ ya.
35 And they build the high places of Ba‘al that [are] in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through to Molech, which I did not command them, nor did it come up on My heart to do this abomination, so as to cause Judah to sin.
Ha wuru ebe dị elu dị iche iche na Ndagwurugwu nke Ben Hinom nye Baal, ebe ha nọ jiri ụmụ ha ndị ikom na ndị inyom chụọ aja nye Molek. O nweghị mgbe m nyere ha iwu ime ihe dị otu a, o nweghị mgbe ajọ ihe dị otu a batara m nʼobi, nke i nye ha iwu ime ihe arụ dị otu a, nke ime ka Juda mehie.
36 And now, therefore, thus said YHWH, God of Israel, concerning this city, of which you are saying, It has been given into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword, and by famine, and by pestilence:
“Ihe i kwuru banyere obodo a bụ, ‘A ga-esite na mma agha, na nʼụnwụ, na nʼoke ọrịa, nyefee ha nʼaka eze Babilọn,’ ma ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel kwuru,
37 Behold, I am gathering them out of all the lands to where I have driven them in My anger, and in My fury, and in great wrath, and I have brought them back to this place, and have caused them to dwell confidently;
Lee, aghaghị m ịchịkọta ha site na mba ndị ahụ niile m sitere nʼiwe m, na nʼoke ọnụma m chụga ha. Aga m akpọghachite ha nʼebe a, mee ka ha biri nʼudo.
38 and they have been to Me for a people, and I am to them for God;
Ha ga-abụ ndị m, mụ onwe m ga-abụkwa Chineke ha.
39 and I have given to them one heart and one way, to fear Me all the days, for the good of them and their sons after them:
Aga m enye ha otu obi na otu ụzọ, ime ka ha na-atụ egwu m, nʼihi ọdịmma nke ha, na ọdịmma nke ụmụ ha ndị ga-eso ha.
40 and I have made a perpetual covenant for them, in that I do not turn back from after them for My doing them good, and I put My fear in their heart, so as not to turn aside from me;
Aga m eme ka ọgbụgba ndụ ebighị ebi dịrị nʼetiti mụ na ha. Agaghị m akwụsị imere ha ihe ọma, aga m akwalikwa obi ha ịtụ egwu m. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ha agaghị esitekwa nʼiso m wezuga onwe ha.
41 and I have rejoiced over them to do them good, and have planted them in this land in truth, with all my heart, and with all My soul.”
Obi ga-atọkwa m ụtọ ime ha mma; m ga-ejikwa obi m niile, na mkpụrụobi m niile kụọ ha nʼala a.
42 For thus said YHWH: “As I brought to this people all this great calamity, so I am bringing on them all the good that I am speaking concerning them;
“Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Dịka m mere ka ihe ọjọọ ukwuu a niile bịakwasị ndị a, otu a ka m ga-esikwa mee ka ezi ihe ahụ niile m kwere ha na nkwa bịakwasị ha.
43 and the field has been bought in this land of which you are saying, It [is] a desolation, without man and beast, it has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
A ga-azụkwa ọhịa nʼala a unu na-asị na ọ bụ ala tọgbọrọ nʼefu, nke mmadụ na anụmanụ na-adịghị nʼime ya, ala nke e nyefere nʼaka ndị Babilọn.
44 They buy fields with money, so as to write in a scroll, and to seal, and to cause witnesses to testify, in the land of Benjamin, and in outskirts of Jerusalem, and in cities of Judah, and in cities of the hill-country, and in cities of the low country, and in cities of the south, for I return their captivity,” a declaration of YHWH.
A ga-ejikwa ọlaọcha zụọ ala ubi, deekwa ihe banyere orire na ọzụzụ ya nʼakwụkwọ. A ga-aka akwụkwọ ndị ahụ akara nʼihu ndị akaebe, nʼala Benjamin, na nʼobodo nta niile dị gburugburu Jerusalem, ma nʼala Juda, na nʼobodo dị nʼala ugwu ugwu, na nke dị na mgbada ugwu niile dị nʼọdịda anyanwụ, na nke dị na Negev, nʼihi na aga m esite nʼobodo ndị ahụ dọtara ha nʼagha buuru ha gaa kpọlata ha. Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.”
