< Jeremiah 28 >

1 And it was - in the year that in [the] beginning of [the] reign of Zedekiah [the] king of Judah (in the year *Q(K)*) fourth in the month fifth he said to me Hananiah [the] son of Azzur the prophet who [was] from Gibeon in [the] house of Yahweh to [the] eyes of the priests and all the people saying.
Ɔbosome a ɛtɔ so enum wɔ afe korɔ a ɛyɛ Yudahene Sedekia adedie ahyɛaseɛ, afe a ɛtɔ so ɛnan no mu, odiyifoɔ Hanania a ɔyɛ Asur a ɔfiri Gibeon babarima no ka kyerɛɛ me wɔ Awurade efie ɛberɛ a na asɔfoɔ ne nnipa no nyinaa ahyia sɛ,
2 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel saying I will break [the] yoke of [the] king of Babylon.
“Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn seɛ: ‘Mɛbubu Babiloniahene kɔnnua no.
3 In yet - two years days I [will] bring back to the place this all [the] articles of [the] house of Yahweh which he took Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon from the place this and he brought them Babylon.
Mfeɛ mmienu mu no, mede Awurade efie mu nneɛma a Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar bɛfa firii ha kɔɔ Babilonia no nyinaa bɛsane aba bio.
4 And Jeconiah [the] son of Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah and all [the] exile[s] of Judah who went Babylon towards I [will] bring back to the place this [the] utterance of Yahweh that I will break [the] yoke of [the] king of Babylon.
Na mɛsane de Yehoiakin a ɔyɛ Yudahene Yehoiakim babarima ne Yuda nnommumfoɔ a wɔkɔɔ Babilonia no nyinaa aba bio’ sei na Awurade seɛ, ‘na mɛbubu Babiloniahene kɔnnua no.’”
5 And he said Jeremiah the prophet to Hananiah the prophet to [the] eyes of the priests and to [the] eyes of all the people who were standing in [the] house of Yahweh.
Na odiyifoɔ Yeremia buaa odiyifoɔ Hanania wɔ asɔfoɔ ne nnipa a na wɔgyinagyina Awurade efie no nyinaa anim.
6 And he said Jeremiah the prophet amen thus may he do Yahweh may he carry out Yahweh words your which you have prophesied by bringing back [the] articles of [the] house of Yahweh and all the exile[s] from Babylon to the place this.
Ɔkaa sɛ, “Amen! Ma Awurade nyɛ no saa! Ma Awurade mma wo nkɔm a woahyɛ sɛ wɔde Awurade efie nneɛma no nyinaa ne nnommumfoɔ bɛfiri Babilonia asane aba ɛha yi no mmra mu.
7 Nevertheless listen to please the word this which I [am] about to speak in ears your and in [the] ears of all the people.
Nanso, tie asɛm a ɛsɛ sɛ meka ma wote na nnipa no nyinaa nso teɛ:
8 The prophets who they were before me and before you from antiquity and they prophesied against lands many and on kingdoms great of war and of calamity and of pestilence.
Ɛfiri tete no, adiyifoɔ a wɔdii mʼanim ne wʼanim no hyehyɛɛ ɔko, amanehunu ne ɔyaredɔm ho nkɔm tiaa aman bebree ne ahennie akɛseɛ.
9 The prophet who he prophesies of peace when comes [the] word of the prophet he will be recognized the prophet whom he sent him Yahweh in truth.
Nanso odiyifoɔ a ɔhyɛ asomdwoeɛ ho nkɔm no, sɛ ne nkɔmhyɛ no ba mu a wɔbɛgye no atom sɛ obi a ampa ara Awurade asoma no.”
10 And he took Hananiah the prophet the yoke-bar from on [the] neck of Jeremiah the prophet and he broke it.
Na odiyifoɔ Hanania yii kɔnnua no firii odiyifoɔ Yeremia kɔn mu, bubuu mu,
11 And he said Hananiah to [the] eyes of all the people saying thus he says Yahweh thus I will break [the] yoke of - Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon in yet two years days (from on *L(abh)*) [the] neck of all the nations and he went Jeremiah the prophet to way his.
na ɔkaeɛ wɔ nnipa no nyinaa anim sɛ, “Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: ‘Saa ara na mɛbubu Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar kɔnnua no afiri amanaman nyinaa kɔn mu wɔ mfeɛ mmienu mu.’” Odiyifoɔ Yeremia tee yei no ɔfirii hɔ kɔeɛ.
12 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah after broke Hananiah the prophet the yoke-bar from on [the] neck of Jeremiah the prophet saying.
Odiyifoɔ Hanania bubuu kɔnnua no firii odiyifoɔ Yeremia kɔn mu akyire no, Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia nkyɛn sɛ:
13 Go and you will say to Hananiah saying thus he says Yahweh yoke-bars of wood you have broken and you will make in place of them yoke-bars of iron.
“Kɔ na kɔka kyerɛ Hanania sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: Woabubu dua kɔnnua mu, nanso mede dadeɛ kɔnnua bɛsi anan mu.
14 For thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel a yoke of iron I have put on [the] neck of - all the nations these to serve Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and they will serve him and also [the] animal[s] of the field I have given to him.
Na sɛdeɛ Asafo Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn no seɛ nie: Mede dadeɛ kɔnnua bɛto amanaman nyinaa kɔn mu, ama wɔn asom Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar, na wɔbɛsom no. Na mpo mɛma no adi wiram mmoa so.’”
15 And he said Jeremiah the prophet to Hananiah the prophet listen please O Hananiah not he sent you Yahweh and you you have made rely the people this on falsehood.
Na odiyifoɔ Yeremia ka kyerɛɛ odiyifoɔ Hanania sɛ, “Tie, Hanania! Awurade nsomaa wo, nanso, woama ɔman yi agye atorɔ ato mu.
16 Therefore thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to cast out you from on [the] surface of the ground this year you [will] die for rebellion you have spoken against Yahweh.
Ɛno enti, sɛ Awurade seɛ nie: ‘Merebɛyi wo afiri asase so. Afeɛ yi mu ara wobɛwu, ɛfiri sɛ woaka atuateɛ nsɛm atia Awurade.’”
17 And he died Hananiah the prophet in the year that in the month seventh.
Ɔbosome a ɛtɔ so nson wɔ afe no ara mu no, odiyifoɔ Hanania wuiɛ.
