Jeremiah 45

1 After Jehoiakim the son of King Josiah had been ruling Judah for almost four years, [I, ] Baruch, wrote down [all] the messages that the prophet Jeremiah had dictated to me. Then Jeremiah gave me a message. He said,

Yuda hina bagade Yihoiagimi (Yousaia egefe) ea ode biyadu ouligibiga, Belage da na sia: i liligi meloaga dedei. Amalalu, na da ema amane sia: i,

2 “Baruch, Yahweh, the God whom [we] Israelis [worship], has a message for you.

“Hina Gode, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode, da amane sia: sa,

3 You have said, ‘Terrible things [are happening] to me! I have endured much pain already. And now Yahweh is causing me to be very sad, in addition to my having pain. I am exhausted from my (groaning/being sad), and I am unable to rest!’

‘Belage! Di da amane sia: sa; Na da bagade da: i dioi! Na da hou huluane yolesimusa: dawa: ! Na da bogomuwane gogonomasa, amola olofosu hame ba: sa!

4 But [Baruch], this is what Yahweh says: ‘I will destroy this nation that I established. [This nation is like a tree] [MET] that I planted and that I will now pull up with its roots.

Be Na, Hina Gode, da Na gagui liligi amo mugululala, amola Na bugi liligi amo a: le fasilala. Na da osobo bagade huluanedafa amoga agoane hamomu.

5 So, should you [RHQ] desire that people do things to honor you in a special way? Do not desire that. [It is true that] I will cause all these people to experience a great disaster, but wherever you go, I will protect you, and you will not be killed.’”

Di da Na da dima afaemagasu hamoma: ne hogosala: ? Mae hogoma! Bai Na da osobo bagade fifi asi gala huluane ilima gugunufinisisu iasimu. Be di da habidili ahoasea, Na da dia esalusu gaga: mu. Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.’”
