Jeremiah 27
1 Soon after Zedekiah became the King of Judah, Yahweh gave a message to me.
Iti rugrugi ti panagturay ni Jehoiakim a putot ni Josiah, nga ari iti Juda, immay kenni Jeremias daytoy a sao manipud kenni Yahweh.
2 This is what he said to me: “Make a (yoke/set of wooden bars to fasten around the neck of an ox), but fasten it around your own neck with leather straps.
Kastoy ti kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Iyaramidam ti bagim iti lalat ken sangol. Ikabilmo dagitoy iti tengngedmo.
3 [Then] send messages to the kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, and Sidon, by telling those messages to the ambassadors from those countries who have come to Jerusalem to [talk to] King Zedekiah.
Ket ipatulodmo dagitoy iti ari ti Edom, iti ari ti Moab, iti ari dagiti tattao ti Ammon, iti ari ti Tiro, ken iti ari ti Sidon. Ipatulodmo dagitoy babaen kadagiti mangibagbagi iti ari nga immay iti Jerusalem iti ayan ni Zedekias nga ari ti Juda.
4 Tell them to give this message to their kings: This is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom the Israeli [people worship, ]:
Bilinem ida iti ibagada kadagiti apoda a kunam, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin a Dios ti Israel: Kastoy ti masapul nga ibagayo kadagiti appoyo,
5 ‘With my very great power [MTY, DOU] I created the earth and the people and the animals that are on the earth. And I can give my power to anyone whom I want to.
“Siak a mismo ti nangparsua iti daga babaen iti naindaklan a pigsak ken pannakabalinko. Pinarsuak pay dagiti tattao ken dagiti ay-ayup nga adda iti rabaw ti daga, ket itedko daytoy iti siasinoman a nalinteg iti imatangko.
6 And now I am going to enable King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, who does what I want him to do, to control your countries. I am going to enable him to rule everything, even the wild animals.
Isu nga ita, siak a mismo, iyawatko amin dagitoy a daga iti ima ti adipenko a ni Nebucadnezar nga ari ti Babilonia. Kasta met nga itedko kenkuana dagiti parsua nga adda biagna iti tay-ak tapno agserbi dagitoy kenkuana.
7 [The people of] all the nations will work for him, and [later] for his son, and [later] for his grandson, until the time for them [to rule] is finished. Then [the armies of] many great kings from many nations will conquer Babylon.’
Ta amin dagiti nasion ket agserbinto kenkuana, kadagiti lallaki a putotna, ken kadagiti appokona agingga a dumteng ti tiempo a pannakaparmek ti dagana. Ket adunto a nasion ken nabibileg nga ar-ari ti mangparmek kenkuana.
8 But now I tell you that you must [do what the king of Babylon wants you to do] [MET], [like an ox that has] a yoke on its neck [must do what its master wants it to do]. I will punish any nation that refuses to do that. I will cause those people to experience war and famine and diseases, until [the armies of] Babylon have conquered that nation.
Isu a ti nasion ken ti pagarian a saan nga agserbi kenni Nebucadnezar nga ari iti Babilonia, ken saan nga agpaituray iti ari ti Babilonia—dusaekto dayta a nasion babaen iti kampilan, nakaro a panagbisin ken didigra—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—agingga a madadaelko ida babaen iti imana.
9 So, do not pay attention to your [false] prophets and fortune-tellers and people who predict what will happen by working magic or by talking with spirits of dead people. Those people say that the king of Babylon will not conquer your country.
Ket dakayo! Isardengyon ti panamatpatiyo kadagiti profetayo, kadagiti mammoyonyo, kadagiti mammadtoyo, kadagiti mammadlesyo, ken kadagiti salamangkeroyo nga agsasao kadakayo a kunada, 'Saanyo a pagserbian ti ari ti Babilonia.
10 Those people are [all] liars. [If you believe what they say, ] it will result in your being exiled from your land. I will cause you to be taken from your land, and you will die far away.
Ta agipadpadtoda kadakayo iti inaallilaw tapno maiyadayokayo kadagiti dagayo, ta papanawenkayto, ket mataykayto.
11 But the people of any country who do what the King of Babylon wants them to do will remain in their own country and be able to plant their crops [MTY] [as they always have done. That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
Ngem ti nasion nga agpaituray iti ari ti Babilonia ken agserbi kenkuana, ipalubosko a makapagtalinaed dagitoy iti dagada—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—ken sukayendanto daytoy ken agtalinaedanto nga agnaed iti daytoy.'””
12 [After I gave that message to those ambassadors, ] I gave the same message to King Zedekiah of Judah. [I said to him, ] “If you want to remain alive, do what the King of Babylon and his officials want you to do [MET].
Kinasaritak ngarud ni Zedekias nga ari ti Juda ket imbagak kenkuana daytoy a mensahe, “Agpaiturayka iti ari ti Babilonia ket pagserbiam isuna ken dagiti tattaona, ket agbiagkanto.
13 [It would be foolish for you not to do that, because the result would be that] you and your people would die by [your enemies’] swords or by famine or diseases, which Yahweh will cause any nation to experience that refuses to allow the King of Babylon to rule them.
Apay koma a matayka—sika ken dagiti tattaom—babaen iti kampilan, nakaro a panagbisin ken didigra a kas iti imbagakon maipanggep iti nasion a saan nga agserbi iti ari ti Babilonia?
14 Do not pay attention to those prophets who say to you, ‘The King of Babylon will not conquer your country.’ They are liars.
Saanka a dumngeg kadagiti sasao dagiti profeta nga agkuna, 'Saanmo a pagserbian ti ari iti Babilonia,' ta inuulbod ti ipadpadtoda kenka.
15 [This is what] Yahweh says: ‘I have not appointed those prophets. They are saying that I [MTY] gave them messages, but they are lying. So, [if you believe them, ] I will expel you from this land. And you and all those prophets will die [in Babylon]!’”
'Ta saanko ida nga imbaon—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—ta agipadpadtoda iti inaallilaw babaen iti naganko iti kasta ket papanawenka ket matayka, sika ken dagiti profeta a nagipadpadto kenka.'”
16 Then I spoke to the priests and the other people, and I said, “This is what Yahweh says: ‘Do not believe your prophets who tell you that all the gold items [that were taken] from my temple [by soldiers from Babylon] will soon be returned from Babylon, because what they are prophesying is a lie.
Inwaragawagko daytoy kadagiti papadi ken kadagiti tattao, a kinunak, “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: “Saankayo a dumngeg kadagiti sasao dagiti profetayo a mangipadpadto kadakayo a kunada, 'Kitaenyo! Maisubsubli itan manipud Babilonia dagiti banbanag a kukua ti balay ni Yahweh!' Agipadpadtoda kadakayo iti inuulbod.
17 Do not pay attention to what they say. Surrender to the king of Babylon. If you do that, you will remain alive. [If you do not do that] [RHQ], this entire city will be destroyed.
Saankayo a dumngeg kadakuada. Masapul nga agserbikayo iti ari ti Babilonia ket agbiagkayto. Apay koma a nasken a madadael daytoy a siudad?
18 If they are really prophets who speak messages from me, tell them to plead to me, the Commander of the armies of angels, that [the soldiers from Babylon] will not be allowed to take away to Babylon the valuable items that [still] remain in the temple and in the king’s palace and in [the other palaces in] Jerusalem.
No isuda ket profeta, ken no pudno nga immay kadakuada ti sao ni Yahweh, ipakaasida koma ngarud kenni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin a saanna nga ipalubos a maipan idiay Babilonia dagiti banbanag a nabati iti balayna, ti balay ti ari iti Juda ken iti Jerusalem.
19 [I say this] because the [huge] pillars [that are in front of the temple] and the large water tank and the [ten water] carts and all the other items that are used [for offering sacrifices are still in this city].
Ta ipakpakaammon ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ti maipanggep kadagiti adigi, iti bronse a palanggana ken iti nakaiparabawan daytoy, ken ti dadduma pay a banbanag a nabati iti daytoy a siudad—
20 King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon left those things here when he exiled Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, to Babylon, along with all the [other] leaders of Jerusalem and [the leaders of other places in] Judah.
dagiti banbanag a saan nga innala ni Nebucadnezar nga ari ti Babilonia idi impanawna a kas balud ni Jehoiachin nga ari ti Juda a putot ni Jehoyakim manipud Jerusalem ket impanna idiay Babilonia, kaduana dagiti nangangato nga opisial ti Juda ken Jerusalem.
21 [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom the Israeli [people worship], say this about all those valuable things that are still outside the temple and in the palace of the king of Judah and in [other places in]:
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin a Dios ti Israel maipanggep kadagiti banbanag a nabati iti balay ni Yahweh, ti balay ti ari ti Juda ken Jerusalem.
22 They will [all] be carried away to Babylon. And they will stay there until I say that they should be brought back to Jerusalem. Then they will be bought back here. [That is what I, ] Yahweh, say.’”
'Maipandanto idiay Babilonia, ket agtalinaeddanto sadiay agingga iti aldaw nga intudingko a dumteng kadakuada—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—ket isang-atkonto ida ket isublik ida iti daytoy a lugar.'”
