Jeremiah 36
1 And it was in the year fourth of Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah it came the word this to Jeremiah from with Yahweh saying.
Yudahene Yosia babarima Yehoiakim afe a ɛto so anan mu, saa asɛm yi fi Awurade nkyɛn baa Yeremia hɔ:
2 Take for yourself a scroll of a document and you will write to it all the words which I have spoken to you on Israel and on Judah and on all the nations from [the] day [when] I spoke to you from [the] days of Josiah and until the day this.
“Fa nhoma mmobɔwee, na kyerɛw nsɛm a maka akyerɛ wo fa Israel, Yuda ne aman a aka no ho nyinaa, efi bere a mifii ase kasa kyerɛɛ wo wɔ Yosia adedi bere so de besi nnɛ no gu so.
3 Perhaps they will hear [the] house of Judah all the harm which I [am] planning to do to them so that they may turn back everyone from way his evil and I will forgive iniquity their and sin their.
Ebia, sɛ Yudafo te amanehunu biara a mayɛ mʼadwene sɛ mede bɛba wɔn so no a, wɔn mu biara bɛdan afi nʼamumɔyɛ ho na afei mede wɔn amumɔyɛ ne wɔn bɔne bɛkyɛ wɔn.”
4 And he called Jeremiah Baruch [the] son of Neriah and he wrote Baruch from [the] mouth of Jeremiah all [the] words of Yahweh which he had spoken to him on a scroll of a document.
Enti Yeremia frɛɛ Neria babarima Baruk, na bere a ɔreka nsɛm a Awurade aka akyerɛ no nyinaa no, Baruk kyerɛw guu nhoma mmobɔwee no mu.
5 And he commanded Jeremiah Baruch saying I [am] shut up not I am able to go [the] house of Yahweh.
Afei Yeremia ka kyerɛɛ Baruk se, “Meda dua mu; merentumi nkɔ Awurade asɔredan mu.
6 And you will go you and you will read aloud in the scroll which you have written from mouth my [the] words of Yahweh in [the] ears of the people [the] house of Yahweh on a day of fasting and also in [the] ears of all Judah who are coming from cities their you will read aloud them.
Enti kɔ Awurade fi mmuadadi da bi na kenkan nsɛm a efi Awurade nkyɛn a meka ma wokyerɛw guu nhoma mmobɔwee no so no kyerɛ nnipa no. Kenkan kyerɛ Yudafo a wofi wɔn nkurow so aba no.
7 Perhaps it will fall supplication their before Yahweh so they may turn back everyone from way his evil for [is] great the anger and the rage which he has spoken Yahweh against the people this.
Ebia wɔde wɔn nkotosrɛ bɛba Awurade anim na wɔn mu biara adan afi nʼamumɔyɛ akwan no so, efisɛ abufuw ne abufuwhyew nsɛm a Awurade aka atia saa nnipa yi so.”
8 And he did Baruch [the] son of Neriah according to all that he had commanded him Jeremiah the prophet to read aloud in the scroll [the] words of Yahweh [the] house of Yahweh.
Neria babarima Baruk yɛɛ biribiara a odiyifo Yeremia kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no, ɔkenkan Awurade nsɛm a ɛwɔ nhoma mmobɔwee no mu wɔ Awurade asɔredan no mu.
9 And it was in the year fifth of Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah in the month ninth they proclaimed a fast before Yahweh all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who were coming from [the] cities of Judah in Jerusalem.
Ɔsram a ɛto so akron wɔ Yudahene Yosia babarima Yehoiakim adedi afe a ɛto so anum so no, wɔpaee Awurade anim mmuadadi maa nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem nyinaa ne wɔn a wofi Yuda nkurow so aba no.
10 And he read aloud Baruch in the scroll [the] words of Jeremiah [the] house of Yahweh in [the] room of Gemariah [the] son of Shaphan the scribe in the court upper [the] entrance of [the] gate of [the] house of Yahweh new in [the] ears of all the people.
Baruk kenkan Yeremia nsɛm a ɛwɔ nhoma mmobɔwee no mu kyerɛɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Awurade asɔredan no mu nyinaa; fii Safan babarima Gemaria a ɔyɛ ɔkyerɛwfo no pia a ɛwɔ asɔredan no atifi adiwo na ɛbɛn Ɔpon Foforo no mu.
11 And he heard Micaiah [the] son of Gemariah [the] son of Shaphan all [the] words of Yahweh from on the scroll.
Bere a Safan babarima Gemaria babarima Mikaia tee Awurade nsɛm a ɛwɔ nhoma mmobɔwee no mu no,
12 And he went down [the] house of the king to [the] room of the scribe and there! there all the officials [were] sitting Elishama the scribe and Delaiah [the] son of Shemaiah and Elnathan [the] son of Achbor and Gemariah [the] son of Shaphan and Zedekiah [the] son of Hananiah and all the officials.
ɔkɔɔ ɔkyerɛwfo no dan a ɛwɔ ahemfi hɔ no mu, faako a na adwumayɛfo no nyinaa: ɔkyerɛwfo Elisama, Semaia babarima Delaia, Akbor babarima Elnatan, Safan babarima Gemaria, Hanania babarima Sedekia ne adwumayɛfo a wɔaka no nyinaa tete.
13 And he told to them Micaiah all the words which he had heard when read aloud Baruch in the scroll in [the] ears of the people.
Mikaia kaa nsɛm a Baruk kenkan fii nhoma mmobɔwee no mu nyinaa kyerɛɛ wɔn no akyi no,
14 And they sent all the officials to Baruch Jehudi [the] son of Nethaniah [the] son of Shelemiah [the] son of Cushi saying the scroll which you have read aloud in it in [the] ears of the people take it in hand your and come and he took Baruch [the] son of Neriah the scroll in hand his and he went to them.
adwumayɛfo no nyinaa somaa Kusi babarima Selemia babarima Netania babarima Yehudi sɛ ɔnkɔka nkyerɛ Baruk se, “Fa nhoma mmobɔwee a wokenkan fii mu kyerɛɛ nnipa no bra, na bra.” Enti Neria babarima Baruk kɔɔ wɔn hɔ a na okura nhoma mmobɔwee no.
15 And they said to him sit please and read aloud it in ears our and he read [it] aloud Baruch in ears their.
Wɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Yɛsrɛ wo tena ase, na kenkan kyerɛ yɛn.” Enti Baruk kenkan kyerɛɛ wɔn.
16 And it was when heard they all the words they were in dread each to neighbor his and they said to Baruch certainly we will tell to the king all the things these.
Wɔtee saa nsɛm yi nyinaa no, wɔde ehu hwehwɛɛ wɔn ho wɔn ho anim na wɔka kyerɛɛ Baruk se, “Ɛsɛ sɛ yɛka saa nsɛm yi nyinaa kyerɛ ɔhene.”
17 And Baruch they asked saying tell please to us how? did you write all the words these from mouth his.
Afei wobisaa Baruk se, “Ka kyerɛ yɛn, ɛyɛɛ dɛn na wokyerɛw eyinom nyinaa? Yeremia na ɔka ma wokyerɛw ana?”
18 And he said to them Baruch from mouth his he proclaimed to me all the words these and I [was] writing on the scroll with ink.
Baruk buae se, “Yiw, ɔno na ɔkaa saa nsɛm yi nyinaa ma mede adubiri kyerɛw guu nhoma mmobɔwee no mu.”
19 And they said the officials to Baruch go hide yourself you and Jeremiah and anyone may not he know where? [are] you.
Na adwumayɛfo no ka kyerɛɛ Baruk se, “Wo ne Yeremia, munkohintaw. Monnkyerɛ obiara mo akyi kwan.”
20 And they went to the king [the] court towards and the scroll they had deposited in [the] room of Elishama the scribe and they told in [the] ears of the king all the things.
Wɔde nhoma mmobɔwee no kosiee ɔkyerɛwfo Elisama dan mu akyiri no, wɔkɔɔ ɔhene no nkyɛn wɔ nʼabangua no mu kɔkaa biribiara kyerɛɛ no.
21 And he sent the king Jehudi to fetch the scroll and he fetched it from [the] room of Elishama the scribe and he read aloud it Jehudi in [the] ears of the king and in [the] ears of all the officials who were standing from with the king.
Ɔhene no somaa Yehudi se, ɔnkɔfa nhoma mmobɔwee no mmra. Yehudi kɔfa fii ɔkyerɛwfo Elisama dan mu, bɛkenkan kyerɛɛ ɔhene ne adwumayɛfo a wogyinagyina ne ho no nyinaa.
22 And the king [was] sitting [the] house of the winter in the month ninth and the fire-pot before him [was] kindled.
Na ɛyɛ ɔsram a ɛto so akron a na ɔhene no te awɔwbere dan mu reto ogya a esi nʼanim.
23 And it was - when read aloud Jehudi three doors and four he tore it with [the] knife of the scribe and he threw [it] into the fire which [was] to the fire-pot until was consumed all the scroll on the fire which [was] on the fire-pot.
Bere biara a Yehudi bɛkenkan nhoma mmobɔwee no afaafa bɛyɛ abiɛsa anaa anan no, ɔhene no de ɔkyerɛwfo afoa, twitwa de gu ogya no mu, kosii sɛ nhoma mmobɔwee no nyinaa hyewee.
24 And not they were afraid and not they tore clothes their the king and all servants his who heard all the words these.
Ɔhene no ne nʼasomfo a wɔtee saa nsɛm yi nyinaa no ammɔ hu, na wɔansunsuane wɔn ntade mu nso.
25 And also Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah they had made entreaty with the king to not to burn the scroll and not he listened to them.
Ɛwɔ mu sɛ Elnatan, Delaia ne Gemaria srɛɛ ɔhene no sɛ ɔnhyew nhoma mmobɔwee no, nanso wantie wɔn.
26 And he commanded the king Jerahmeel [the] son of the king and Seraiah [the] son of Azriel and Shelemiah [the] son of Abdeel to seize Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet and he hid them Yahweh.
Mmom ɔhene no hyɛɛ ne babarima Yerahmeel, Asriel babarima Seraia ne Abdeel babarima Selemia se, wɔnkɔkyere ɔkyerɛwfo Baruk ne odiyifo Yeremia mmra. Nanso na Awurade de wɔn asie.
27 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah after - burned the king the scroll and the words which he had written Baruch from [the] mouth of Jeremiah saying.
Ɔhene no hyew nhoma mmobɔwee a na nsɛm a Baruk akyerɛw afi Yeremia anum wɔ mu no akyi no, Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia nkyɛn se,
28 Return take for yourself a scroll another and write on it all the words former which they were on the scroll former which he burned Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah.
“Fa nhoma mmobɔwee foforo, na kyerɛw nsɛm a ɛwɔ kan mmobɔwee a Yudahene Yehoiakim hyew no gu mu.
29 And to Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah (you will say *LA(bh)*) thus he says Yahweh you you burned the scroll this saying why? did you write on it saying certainly he will come [the] king of Babylon and he will destroy the land this and he will cause to cease from it human being and animal.
Afei ka kyerɛ Yudahene Yehoiakim se, ‘Sɛɛ na Awurade se: Wohyew nhoma mmobɔwee no kae se: “Adɛn nti na wokyerɛw wɔ mu se ɔkwan biara so, Babiloniahene bɛba abɛsɛe asase yi na watɔre so nnipa ne mmoa nyinaa ase?”
30 Therefore thus he says Yahweh on Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah not he will belong to him [one who] sits on [the] throne of David and corpse his it will be thrown out to the heat in the day and to the frost in the night.
Ɛno nti, sɛɛ na Awurade ka fa Yudahene Yehoiakim ho: Ɔrennya obi ntena Dawid ahengua so. Wɔbɛtow ne funu akyene a, wɔrensie no, na wada owia hyew ne anadwo awɔw mu.
31 And I will visit on him and on offspring his and on servants his iniquity their and I will bring on them and on [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem and to everyone of Judah all the calamity which I have spoken against them and not they listened.
Mɛtwe ɔno ne ne mma ne nʼasomfo aso wɔ wɔn amumɔyɛ nti; mede amanehunu biara a mahyɛ atia wɔn bɛba wɔn ne wɔn a wɔte Yerusalem ne Yudafo so, efisɛ wɔantie.’”
32 And Jeremiah he took - a scroll another and he gave it to Baruch [the] son of Neriah the scribe and he wrote on it from [the] mouth of Jeremiah all [the] words of the scroll which he had burned Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah in the fire and again it was added to them words many like them.
Na Yeremia faa nhoma mmobɔwee foforo, na ɔka maa ne kyerɛwfo Baruk kyerɛwee. Ɔkaa biribiara a na ɛwɔ nhoma mmobɔwee no a ɔhene Yehoiakim hyew no no so. Na ɔde nsɛm pii kaa ho.
