Jeremiah 16
1 Yahweh gave me another message. [He said to me],
Hina Gode da eno nama amane sia: i,
2 “Do not get married and have children in this land,
“Di amo soge ganodini, uda mae lama amola mano mae lalelegema!
3 because this is what [I], Yahweh, say about the children who are born in this city, and about their mothers and fathers:
Mano amo da guiguda: lalelegesea amo ilia hou, amola ilia ada amola ame ilia hou, Na da dima olelemu.
4 [Many of] them will die from terrible diseases. And no one will mourn for them. No one will even bury their corpses; the corpses will lie on the ground, [scattered] like manure. [Others] will die in wars or from hunger, and [then] their corpses will become food for vultures and wild animals.”
Ilia da olo bagade madelale, bogogia: mu. Amola dunu eno da iliba: le hame didigia: mu amola ilia da: i hodo hame uli dogonesimu. Be ilia da: i hodo da iga gialegei bi heda: i defele osoboga dialebe agoai ba: mu. Ilia da gegesu ganodini o ha: i bagade ganodini bogogia: mu, amola ilia da: i hodo da sio fi amola sigua ohe amo ilia ha: i manu agoane ba: mu.
5 This is [also] what Yahweh said to me: “Do not go to funerals to mourn or to show [those whose relatives have died] that you feel sorry for them, because I have stopped protecting them, and I have caused that things will not go well for them. I have stopped faithfully loving them and acting mercifully toward them.
Diasu amo ganodini dunu ilia didigia: su, amo ganodini mae golili sa: ima. Dunu da bogosea, dia mae dawa: ma amola mae dima. Bai Na da wali Na fi dunuma hahawane olofosu hou amola asigi hou bu hamedafa imunu.
6 [Very many people] will die in this land, [including] those who are important and those who are not important. And no one will mourn for them, or [even] bury [their corpses]. No one will cut himself or shave his head [to show that he is very sad].
Bagade gagui dunu amola hame gagui dunu, da amo soge ganodini gilisili bogogia: mu. Be eno dunu da ilima asigiba: le, hame didigia: mu amola ilia da: i hodo hame uli dogonesimu. Dunu eno da ilia da: i dioi olelema: ne, ilia da: i hame fafa: ginisimu amola ilia dialuma hinabo hame waga: mu.
7 No one will bring food to comfort those who are mourning, not even if it is their father or their mother [who has died]. No one will give them a cup [of wine] to cheer them up.
Dunu da ea dogolegei fi dunu da bogobeba: le, da: i diosea, dunu afae eno da ea dogo denesima: ne, ema ha: i amola waini hano naha, hamedafa gilisili fimu. Nowa dunu da ea ame o ada bogosea, dunu eno da ema asigi hou hamedafa olelemu.
8 And do not go into the houses where people are feasting. Do not eat or drink anything with them.
Dunu eno da diasu ganodini lolo nasea, di da amo ha: i moma: ne gilisimusa: amo diasuga maedafa golili sa: ima.
9 [I want you to do this] because this is what [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say: ‘While you are still alive and seeing it happen, I will cause there to be no more singing and laughing in this land. There will be no more joyful voices of bridegrooms and brides.’
Na da Hina Gode Bagadedafa, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode! Na sia: nabima! Hahawane sia: amola uda lasu lolo nabe hahawane sia: huluane amo ouiya: ma: ne Na da hamomu. Amo fi dunu guiguda: esalebe da amo hou doaga: i dagoi ba: mu.
10 When you tell these things to the people, they will ask, ‘Why has Yahweh declared that these terrible things will happen to us? What have we done [for which we deserve to be punished like this]? What sin have we committed against Yahweh our God?’
Di da amo sia: Na fi dunuma olelesea, ilia da Hina Gode da abuliba: le se iasu bagadedafa ilima iaha, dima adole ba: mu. ‘Ninia da adi wadela: i hou hamobela: amola ninia Hina Godema adi wadela: i hou hamobela: ?’ ilia da amane adole ba: mu.
11 Then this is what you must tell them [that I am replying to them]: ‘It is because your ancestors turned away from me, Yahweh. They worshiped other gods and served them. They abandoned me and did not obey my commands.
Amasea, dia Hina Gode Ea sia: ilima amane alofele ima, ‘Dilia aowalalia da Na fisili, eno ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima sia: ne gadosu amola hawa: hamosu. Ilia da Na fisili, Na olelesu hamedafa nabawane hamosu.
12 But you [who are living now] have done more wicked things than your ancestors did! Each of you stubbornly does the evil things that he desires and refuses to pay attention to what I say.
Be dilia da dilia aowalalia ilia wadela: i hou baligili hamoi. Dilia huluane da dogo ga: nasi hamoi, amola wadela: idafa hou hamosu, amola Na sia: nabimu hame dawa:
13 So, I will throw you out of this land, and I will send you to a land that you and your ancestors have never known about. There you will worship other gods day and night. And I will not act mercifully toward you.’
Amaiba: le Na da dili amo sogega fisili masa: ne, sefasisia, dilia da eno soge, dilia amola dilia aowalalia hame dawa: soge amoga mugululi masunu. Amola amogawi, dilia esoga amola gasia, eno ogogosu ‘gode’ ilia hawa: hamonanu. Amola Na da dilima asigi hou hame olelemu.’”
14 But there will be a time when people [who are solemnly promising to do something] will no longer say, ‘[I will do this], [just as surely] as Yahweh lives—the one who brought the Israeli people here from Egypt.’
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da Gode esala. Amola Na da Isala: ili fi dunu Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne, ga oule asi. Be eso da misunu amoga, Na fi dunu da amo hou Na hamobeba: le, amoga ilia sia: bu hame ilegemu.
15 Instead, they will say ‘[I will do this, just as surely] as Yahweh lives—the one who brought [us] Israeli people back to our own land, from the lands to the north and from all the other lands to which he had (exiled us/forced us to go).’ [They will be able to say that] because [some day] I will bring your descendants back to this land that I gave to your ancestors.
Be Na da Na fi dunu gagoe (north) soge amola eno fifi asi gala ilia sogega afagogoi. Amola Na da ili amo soge Na da ilia aowalalia amoga i, ilima bu oule misunuba: le, ilia da Na da Gode esala ili buhagima: ne logo doasi dagoi, amo hou dafawaneyale dawa: beba: le, ilia da amo sia: ga dafawane hamoma: ne ilegemu. Na, Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi.”
16 But now I am summoning [your enemies who will seize the people of Judah like] [MET] fishermen [catch fish]. I am summoning those who will search for them on every mountain and hill, and in every cave, [like] [MET] hunters [search for animals to kill].
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da menabo gasa: su dunu bagohame amo Na fi dunu gasa: ma: ne, ilima misa: ne sia: mu. Amasea, Na da benea ahoasu dunu bagohame, goumi amola agolo amola magufu gelabo huluane amoga Na fi dunu lama: ne, ilima misa: ne sia: mu.
17 I am watching them carefully. I see every sin [that they commit]. They will not [be able to] hide from me [MTY].
Na da ilia wadela: i hamobe huluanedafa ba: lala. Na mae ba: ma: ne wamolegemu da hamedei.
18 Because of all the wicked things that they have done [DOU], I will punish them twice as much [as I would punish other people. I will do that] because they have caused my land to become unacceptable to me because of their [worshiping] lifeless statues of detestable gods, and [also because they] have done many other evil things throughout my land.”
Ilia wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, Na da ilima baligili se imunu. Bai ilia da Na soge amo ganodini hame esala (bogoi ea da: i hodo defele) loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ amoga nabaiba: le, Na soge da ledodafa hamoi dagoi ba: sa.”
19 [Then I prayed, saying], “Yahweh, you are the one who strengthens me and protects me [MET]; you are the one to whom I go when I have [troubles]. [Some day people from] nations all over the world will come to you and say, ‘Our ancestors left/gave us only something that was false; [they worshiped idols] that are completely worthless [DOU].
Hina Gode! Di fawane da na gaga: sa amola nama gasa iaha. Dia da bidi hamosu eso amoga na fidilala. Fifi asi gala fi dunu da osobo bagade bega: bega: nini Dima misini, amane sia: mu, ‘Ninia aowalalia da ogogosu ‘gode’ amola hamedei loboga hamoi ‘gode’ agoaila fawane gagui.’
20 No one can [RHQ] make their own gods; the gods that they make are [only idols]; they are not real gods.’”
Dunu ilisu da ilila: ‘gode’ hamomu defele ganabela: ? Hame mabu! Amai ganiaba, amo liligi da ‘godedafa’ hame ba: la: loba.”
21 [Then Yahweh said], “Now I will show my power to [the people of Judah]; I will show them that I am truly very powerful [DOU]. Then, finally, they will know that I, Yahweh, [am the true God].”
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Amaiba: le, Na da wali fifi asi gala huluane ilima Na gasa bagade hou olelemu. Amasea, Na da Hina Godedafa, amo ilia da dawa: mu.”
