Jeremiah 21
1 The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh when sent to him the king Zedekiah Pashhur [the] son of Malkijah and Zephaniah [the] son of Maaseiah the priest saying.
Ndị a bụ okwu Onyenwe anyị, nke ruru Jeremaya ntị mgbe eze Zedekaya zigara Pashua nwa Malkija, na onye nchụaja bụ Zefanaya nwa Maaseia,
2 Seek please for us Yahweh for Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon [is] waging war on us perhaps he will do Yahweh with us according to all wonders his and he may go up from on us.
sị, “Jụtara anyị ase site nʼaka Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi na Nebukadneza eze Babilọn na-ebuso anyị agha. Eleghị anya Onyenwe anyị ga-emere anyị ihe ịtụnanya dịka oge gara aga, nke ga-eme ka o si nʼebe anyị nọ wezuga onwe ya.”
3 And he said Jeremiah to them thus you will say! to Zedekiah.
Ma Jeremaya zara sị ha, “Gwanụ Zedekaya sị ya,
4 Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel here I [am] about to turn round [the] weapons of war which [are] in hand your which you [are] fighting by them with [the] king of Babylon and with the Chaldeans who are laying siege on you from [the] outside of the wall and I will gather them into [the] middle of the city this.
‘Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel kwuru: Lee ejikerela m ugbu a ichigharị ihe agha niile dị unu nʼaka, nke unu ji na-ebuso eze Babilọn na ndị Kaldịa gbara obodo unu gburugburu agha, e, ejikerela m ichigharị ha megide unu. Aga m akpọbata ha nʼime obodo a.
5 And I will fight I with you by a hand outstretched and by an arm strong and in anger and in rage and in wrath great.
Mụ onwe m ga-eji aka e setịpụrụ nke ọma, na aka dị ike, nke iwe na ọnụma dị ukwuu, buo agha megide unu.
6 And I will strike down [the] inhabitants of the city this and the humankind and the animal[s] by a pestilence great they will die.
Aga m etida ndị niile bi nʼobodo a, ma mmadụ ma anụ ọhịa. Ha ga-anwụkwa site nʼoke ihe otiti, nke m ga-eme ka ọ bịakwasị ha.
7 And after thus [the] utterance of Yahweh I will give Zedekiah [the] king of Judah and servants his - and the people and those [who] remain in the city this from the pestilence - from the sword and from the famine in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and in [the] hand of enemies their and in [the] hand of [those who] seek life their and he will strike down them to [the] mouth of [the] sword not he will have mercy on them and not he will show pity and not he will have compassion.
Mgbe nke a mesịrị, Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara, aga m ewere Zedekaya eze Juda, na ndịisi ọchịchị ya, na ndị niile bi nʼobodo a, ndị mma agha na ụnwụ na ihe otiti ndị a na-egbughị, nyefee ha nʼaka Nebukadneza eze Babilọn, na nʼaka ndị iro ha, ndị na-achọsi ndụ ha ike. Ọ ga-eji mma agha gbuo ha. Ọ gaghị emere ha ebere, ọ gaghị egosikwa ha ọmịiko.’
8 And to the people this you will say thus he says Yahweh here I [am] putting before you [the] way of life and [the] way of death.
“Tinyere nke a, gwanụ ndị mmadụ niile, ‘na ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Lee, ana m eche nʼihu unu ụzọ abụọ, ụzọ na-eduba na ndụ, na ụzọ na-eduba nʼọnwụ.
9 The [one who] remains in the city this he will die by the sword and by famine and by pestilence and the [one who] goes out and he will fall on the Chaldeans who are laying siege on you (and he will live *Q(K)*) and it will belong to him life his to plunder.
Onye ọbụla nʼime unu nọgidere nʼobodo a ka mma agha, maọbụ ụnwụ, maọbụ ihe otiti ga-egbu. Ma onye ọbụla nʼime unu pụkwuru ndị Kaldịa gbara obodo unu gburugburu, were onwe ya nyefee ha nʼaka, ga-adị ndụ; ọ ga-echebekwa ndụ ya.
10 For I have set face my on the city this for harm and not for good [the] utterance of Yahweh in [the] hand of [the] king of Babylon it will be given and he will burn it with fire.
Ekpebiela m imesi obodo a ike; o nweghị ihe ọma ọbụla ga-esi nʼaka m rute ha, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri. A ga-enyefe obodo a nʼaka eze Babilọn, onye ga-eji ọkụ laa ya nʼiyi.’
11 And to [the] house of [the] king of Judah hear [the] word of Yahweh.
“Karịchasịa, gwa ndị ezinaụlọ eze Juda sị, ‘Nụrụnụ okwu Onyenwe anyị.
12 O house of David thus he says Yahweh judge to the morning justice and deliver [one who] has been robbed from [the] hand of an oppressor lest it should go forth like fire rage my and it will burn and there not [will be one who] extinguishes because of [the] wickedness of (deeds your. *Q(K)*)
Unu ụlọ Devid, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “‘Kpeenụ ikpe ziri ezi kwa ụtụtụ niile; napụtanụ ndị a na-emegbu emegbu site nʼaka ndị na-emegbu ha. Napụtakwanụ ndị a na-apụnara ihe ha nwere site nʼaka ndị na-apụnara ha ihe ndị a. Ọ bụrụ na unu emeghị otu a, iwe m ga-abịakwasị unu, dịka ọkụ nʼihi ajọ omume unu, ọ dịkwaghị onye pụrụ ime ka ọ kwụsị.
13 Here I [am] against you O inhabitant of the valley O rock of the plain [the] utterance of Yahweh O those [who] say who? will he come down on us and who? will he come in hiding places our.
Edoola m onwe m megide gị, Jerusalem, gị onye bi nʼebe dị elu karịa ndagwurugwu a, onye bi nʼebe dị elu nke dị larịị, Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri. Gị onye na-asị “Onye pụrụ ibuso anyị agha? Onye kwa pụrụ ịbata nʼebe anyị e wusiri ike?”
14 And I will visit [judgment] on you according to [the] fruit of deeds your [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will kindle a fire in forest its and it will consume all around it.
Aga m enye gị ahụhụ nke ruuru gị nʼihi ajọ omume gị, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri. Aga m amụnye ọkụ nʼoke ọhịa gị niile, nke ga-erechapụ ihe niile dị gị gburugburu.’”
