Jeremiah 43
1 And it came to pass, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking unto all the people all the words of Yahweh their God, with which Yahweh their God had sent him unto them, —even all these words,
Yeremiya bwe yamala okutegeeza abantu ebigambo byonna Mukama Katonda waabwe bye yamutuma okubagamba,
2 then spake Azariah son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan son of Kareah, and all the proud men, —saying unto Jeremiah—Falsely, art thou speaking, Yahweh our God hath not sent thee to say, Ye shall not enter Egypt to sojourn there;
Azaliya mutabani wa Kosaaya ne Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya n’abasajja bonna ab’amalala ne bagamba Yeremiya nti, “Olimba! Mukama Katonda wo takutumye kugamba nti, ‘Temugenda Misiri kusenga eyo.’
3 but Baruch son of Neriah, is goading thee on against us, —that he may deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, to put us to death, or take us away captive to Babylon.
Naye Baluki mutabani wa Neriya y’akusendasenda otugabule mu mukono gw’Abakaludaaya, batutte oba batutwale mu buwaŋŋanguse e Babulooni.”
4 So Johanan son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces and all the people, hearkened not, unto the voice of Yahweh, —by remaining in the land of Judah;
Awo Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya n’abaduumizi ba magye bonna n’abantu bonna ne bajeemera ekiragiro kya Mukama eky’okusigala mu nsi ya Yuda.
5 but Johanan son of Kareah and all the captains of the forces took all the remnant of Judah, who had returned, out of all the nations whither they had been driven to sojourn in the land of Judah:
Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya n’abaduumizi ba magye ga Yuda bonna ne bakulembera abantu ba Yuda abaali basigaddewo nga bakomyewo okuva mu mawanga gonna gye baali baddukidde okubeera mu nsi ya Yuda.
6 both the men and the women and the children, and the daughters of the king, and every soul that Nebuzaradan chief of the royal executioners had left, with Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan, —and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch son of Neriah;
Ne batwala n’abasajja bonna, n’abakazi n’abaana n’abawala ba kabaka, Nebuzaladaani omuduumizi w’eggye lya kabaka w’e Babulooni be yali alekedde Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu, mutabani wa Safani, ne nnabbi Yeremiya ne Baluki mutabani wa Neriya.
7 and entered the land of Egypt, for they hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh, —yea entered as far as Tahpanhes.
Awo ne bayingira e Misiri nga bajeemedde Mukama, ne bagenda okutuukira ddala e Tapaneese.
8 Then came the word of Yahweh unto Jeremiah, in Tahpanhes, saying:
Bwe baba bali e Tapaneese, ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Yeremiya nti,
9 Take in thy hand great stones and hide them in the mortar that is in the brickyard which is at the entrance of the house of Pharaoh in Tahpanhes, —before the eyes of the men of Judah.
“Twala amayinja amanene ogaziike mu bbumba mu lubalaza olw’amatoffaali ku mulyango gw’olubiri lwa Falaawo e Tapaneese, ng’Abayudaaya bonna balaba.
10 Then shalt thou say unto them—Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel—Behold me! sending and fetching Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, my servant, and I will set his throne over these stones which I have hid, —and he shall spread his canopy over them.
Obagambe nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, Nditumya omuddu wange Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni, era nditeeka entebe ye ey’obwakabaka ku mayinja gano ge nziise wano. Ku go kwalikuba eweema ye ey’obwakabaka.
11 And when he entereth, then will he smite the land of Egypt and deliver Him who is for death to death and Him who is for captivity to captivity, and Him who is for the sword to the sword.
Alijja n’alumba Misiri, atte abo ab’okufa, awambe n’abo ab’okuwambibwa, n’ab’okuttibwa n’ekitala battibwe n’ekitala.
12 So will I kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt, and he shall burn them and carry them away Captive, —and shall wrap the land of Egypt about him, just as a shepherd, wrappeth about, him his garment, and shall go forth from thence in peace;
Alikoleeza omuliro ku masabo ga bakatonda b’e Misiri, n’abatwala mu busibe nga alese amasabo gaabwe agookezza. Ng’omulunzi w’endiga bwe yeezingirira ekyambalo kye, bw’atyo bw’alyezingirira ensi y’e Misiri n’avaayo nga tewali kabi konna kamutuuseeko.
13 And he shall break in pieces the pillars of Beth-shemesh, which is in the land of Egypt, —And the houses of the gods of Egypt, shall he burn with fire.
Alimenyamenya empagi ezaawongebwa mu ssabo ly’enjuba mu Misiri, n’ayokya n’amasabo ga bakatonda b’e Misiri.’”
