< Jeremiah 37 >

1 After Jehoiakim died, [his son Jehoiachin became king for only three months, after which] King Josiah’s son Zedekiah became the King of Judah. Nebuchadnezzar, the King of Babylon, appointed him to be the new king.
Hagi Babiloni kini ne' Nebukatnesa'a, Jehoiakimi nemofo Jehoiakinina mago agi'a Koniakino agri no erino Juda vahe kini manisiegu huno, Josaia nemofo Zedekaiana kinia azeri oti'ne.
2 But King Zedekiah and his palace officials and the other people in the land paid no attention to the messages that Yahweh gave me.
Hagi Zedekaia'ene eri'za vahe'amo'zane ana maka vahemo'zanena Ra Anumzamo'ma asamigeno kasnampa ne' Jeremaia'ma hia nanekea ontahitfa hu'naze.
3 However, [one day] King Zedekiah sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah the priest, who was the son of Maaseiah, to me. They requested me to pray to Yahweh our God for our [nation].
Hagi kini ne' Zedekaia'a mago zupa Selemia nemofo Jehukaline Ma'aseia nemofo pristi ne' Zefanianena huznanteno, kasnampa ne' Jeremaiana amanage huta ome asami'o. Muse hugantoanki Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamofontega nunamu hugeno taza hino huta ome asami'o.
4 At that time I had not yet been put in prison, so I could come and go wherever and whenever I wanted to, [without being hindered].
Hagi Jeremaia'a fru huno mani'neno agra avesite vahepina vuno eno nehuno mani'ne. Na'ankure agrira ana knafina kina huonte'nageno anara hu'ne.
5 [At that time], the army of [Hophra], the King of Egypt, came [to the southern border of Judah]. When the army of Babylonia heard about that, they stopped surrounding Jerusalem and left there [to fight against the army from Egypt].
Hagi ana knafinena Fero sondia vahe'mo'zama Isipima atre'za karankama neazema nehaza nanekema, Jerusalemi kuma'ma eme avazagi kagi'zama mani'naza Kaldia vahe'mo'zama nentahiza, Jerusalemi kumara atre'za vu'naze.
6 Then Yahweh gave this message to me:
Anante Ra Anumzamo'a kasnampa ne' Jeremaiana asamino,
7 “[I], Yahweh, the God whom [you] Israelis [say you belong to], say this: ‘The King of Judah has sent [messengers] to you to ask me [what is going to happen]. Tell the king that even though the army of the King of Egypt came to help him, they are about to return to Egypt.
Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamo'a amanage hie hunka, Juda kini ne'mo'ma Nagri navesi'zama keno eri fore hunaku'ma huzmante'sanige'zama esaza vahera amanage hunka zamasamio. Antahiho! Fero sondia vahe'mo'zama tamaza hunaku'ma aza vahe'mo'za ete rukrahe hu'za mopa zamirega Isipi vunaku nehaze.
8 Then the army of Babylonia will return here and capture this city and burn everything in it.’
Ana'ma hanage'za Babiloni sondia vahe'mo'za ete rukrahe hu'za e'za ama Jerusalemi rankumara hara eme hugatenere'za teve tagintesageno tegahie.
9 [So], this is what I say [to you Israelis]: ‘You should not deceive yourselves, thinking that the army from Babylonia has gone and will not return. That is not true.
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a mago'ene huno, Tamagra'a amanage huta tamare ramataga osiho. Tamagerfa hu'za Babiloni vahe'mo'za hago tatre'za vaze huta tamagesa ontahio. Na'ankura zamagra ovu'za ete rukrahe hu'za egahaze.
10 And even if your soldiers could destroy almost all of the soldiers from Babylonia who are attacking you, and allow only a few of them who were wounded to remain alive in their tents, they would come out [of their tents] and burn this city completely!”’”
Hagi Babiloni sondia vahera tamagra maka zamahe vaganereta, mago'a zamahe kuzafa'ma hanaza sondia vahe'mo'zage seli nozamifina manigahaze. Hianagi anama zamahe kuzafa'ma hanaza sondia naga'mo'za otivare'za e'za ama rankumara teve eme tagintesageno tegahie.
11 When the army from Babylonia left Jerusalem because the army from Egypt was approaching,
Hagi Fero sondia vahe'mo'zama neazema haza nanekema Babiloni sondia vahe'mo'za nentahi'za, Jerusalemi kumama eme avazagi kagi'za mani'naretira atre'za vu'naze.
12 I started to leave the city. I intended to go to the area [where the descendants of] Benjamin live, in order to take possession of my share of the property from my family.
Ana knafina Jeremaia'a Jerusalemi rankumara atreno, Benzameni nagamofo mopafi vuno, naga'afinti mopa'a ome erinaku vu'ne.
13 But as I was walking out the Benjamin Gate, a guard seized me and said, “You are deserting [us and going] to [the soldiers from] Babylonia!” The man who seized me was Irijah, the son of Shelemiah and grandson of Hananiah.
Hagi rankumamofona Benzameni kafanema nehaza kafante'ma egeno'a, sondia vahete kva ne' Hanania negeho, Selemia nemofokino agi'a Irija'e. Ana hu'neankino ana ne'mo'a eno kasnampa ne' Jeremaiana eme azenerino amanage hu'ne. Kagra koro frenka vunka Babiloni vahe'ene umaninaku vu'za nehane.
14 But I [protested and] said, “That is not true! I was not intending to do that!” But Irijah would not pay attention to what I said. He took me to the [king’s] officials.
Hagi anagema higeno'a Jeremaia'a huno, i'o kagra havige nehane. Nagra korora fre'na Babiloni vahe'ma mani'nazarega novue. Hianagi Irija'a anankea nontahino Jeremaiana avreno kini nemofo eri'za vahete vu'ne.
15 They were very angry with me. They [commanded the guards to] beat me and [then to] put me in the house where Jonathan the king’s secretary stayed. They had changed Jonathan’s house to make it become a prison.
Hagi ana'ma hutege'za kva vahe'mo'za Jeremaiana tusi zamarimpa ahenente'za sefura amite'za avre'za vu'za, avoma kreno erinte fatgoma nehia ne' Jonatani nompi ome kina hunte'naze. Na'ankure Jonatani nona kina no erise'naze.
16 They put me in a dungeon/cell in that prison, and I remained there for several days.
Hagi ana kina nona mopafi kafi'za urami'naza kina nonkino, Jeremaia'a anampina za'za kna umani'ne.
17 Then King Zedekiah secretly sent a servant to me, who took me to the palace. There the king asked me, “Do you have any messages from Yahweh?” I replied, “Yes, [the message is that] you will be handed over to the king of Babylon.”
Hagi henka kini ne' Jedekaia'a vahe huzmantege'za Jeremaiana ome avre'za azageno, noma'afi oku'a amanage huno antahige'ne. Ra Anumzamo'a mago'a nanekea kasami'nefi? higeno Jeremaia'a huno, i'zo me'ne nehuno amanage hu'ne. Kagrira Babiloni kini ne'mofo azampi kavrentegahaze.
18 Then I asked the king, “What crime have I committed [RHQ] against you or against your officials or against the Israeli people, with the result that you have [commanded that] I be put in a prison?
Hagi anage nehuno Jeremaia'a kini ne' Jedekaiana asamino, nagra na'a mago hazenkea kagrite'ene, kagri eri'za vahete'ene, ama vahete'enena hu'nogenka, kinafina navrente'nane?
19 Your prophets predicted that the army of the king of Babylon would not attack you or this land. Why were [RHQ] [their messages] not fulfilled?
Hagi Babiloni vahe'mo'za e'za kagri'ene amama mani'nana mopafi vahe'enena hara eme huoramantegahaze hu'zama, kasnampa kema nehaza kema antahi'nana kasnampa vaheka'a iga mani'naze?
20 Your majesty, I plead with you to listen to me. Do not send me back to the dungeon/cell in the house of Jonathan your secretary, because [if you do that, ] I will die there.”
Hagi menina muse hugantoanki, naza huogu kini nera ranimoka kantahi negoanki antahi nenaminka, natrege'na avoma kreno erinte fatgoma nehia ne' Jonatani nompina ova'neno. Ana'ma hananke'na anampima umanine'na fri'zankura navesra nehie.
21 So King Zedekiah commanded that [I not be sent back to the prison cell. Instead, ] I was allowed to be watched by the guards in the courtyard [of the palace]. [The king] also [commanded that they should] bring me a loaf of fresh bread every day, until there was no bread left in the city. So [they put me] in that courtyard and I remained there.
Anagema hutegeno'a kini ne' Jedekaia'a hige'za Jeremaiana avre'za vu'za, kini ne'mofo kumapima sondia vahe'ma nemanifi ome kina huntageno mani'nege'za, bretima negraza vaheteti mago mago knarera bretia eri'za ome amitere hazageno neneno mani'ne. Ana nehazageno vuno rankumapima me'nea bretimo'a maka vagare'ne. Hianagi Jeremaia'a sondia vahe'ma nemanizafi kina huno mani'ne.
