Jeremiah 27
1 In the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh.
Tia paht tukun Zedekiah wen natul Josiah el tokosrala lun Judah, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik
2 This is what Yahweh said to me, “Make fetters and a yoke for yourself. Place them on your neck.
ngan orala soko mwe utuk ke sak ac kapriya ke kulun kosro ac filiya fin kwawuk.
3 Then send them out to the king of Edom, the king of Moab, the king of the people of Ammon, the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon. Send them by the hand of those kings' ambassadors who have come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah.
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik in supwala kas nu sin tokosra lun Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, ac Sidon, sin mwet fulat aolyalos su tuku nu Jerusalem in sonol Tokosra Zedekiah.
4 Give commands to them for their masters and say, 'Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this: This is what you must say to your masters,
LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, El fahk nu sik in sapkin nu selos tuh elos in fahk nu sin tokosra lalos lah LEUM GOD El fahk ouinge:
5 “I myself made the earth by my great strength and my raised arm. I also made the people and animals on the earth, and I give it to anyone who is right in my eyes.
“Ke ku lulap ac po kulana luk, nga orala faclu, mwet uh, ac ma orakrak nukewa su oasr faclu, na nga sang nu sin kutena mwet su nga sulela.
6 So now, I myself am giving all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, my servant. Also, I am giving the living things in the fields to him to serve him.
Nga pa sang mutunfacl inge nukewa nu ye ku lun mwet kulansap luk, Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia, ac nga oru tuh finne kosro lemnak uh ac wi pac orekma nu sel.
7 For all the nations will serve him, his son, and his grandson until the time for his land comes. Then many nations and great kings will subdue him.
Mutunfacl nukewa fah kulansupwal, ac elos fah oayapa kulansupu wen natul ac wen nutin natul, nwe ke sun pacl se mutunfacl sel uh ac musalla. Na mutunfacl sel ac fah kulansupu mutunfacl kulana ac tokosra fulat lalos.
8 So the nation and the kingdom that does not serve Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, and that does not put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon—I will punish that nation with the sword, with famine, and with the plague—this is Yahweh's declaration—until I have destroyed it by his hand.
Tusruktu fin oasr kutena mutunfacl ku tokosrai su tia akos sap lal, na nga ac kai mutunfacl sacn ke mweun, sracl, ac mas lulap, nwe ke nga lela Nebuchadnezzar elan kunauselos nufon.
9 So do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your seers, your soothsayers, and sorcerers, who have been speaking to you and saying, 'Do not serve the king of Babylon.'
Nik kowos porongo mwet palu lowos, ku kutena mwet su fahk mu el ku in palye pacl fahsru uh — ke mweme, ku ke lolngok yurin mwet misa, ku ke inutnut. Elos nukewa fahk mu kowos in tia kulansupu tokosra lun Babylonia.
10 For they are prophesying deceit to you in order to send you far away from your lands, for I will drive you away, and you will die.
Elos kiapwekowos, ac elos ac oru in utukla kowos nu yen loesla liki acn suwos. Nga fah liskowosla, ac kowos fah kunausyukla.
11 But the nation that places its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serves him, I will allow it to rest in its land—this is Yahweh's declaration—and they will cultivate it and make their homes in it.”'”
Tusruktu fin oasr kutena mutunfacl su akpusiselyal nu sin tokosra Babylonia ac orekma nu sel, na nga ac lela elan mutana in facl sel sifacna ac imai. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
12 So I spoke to Zedekiah king of Judah and gave him this message, “Place your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him and his people, and you will live.
Nga tuh fahk oapana nu sel Tokosra Zedekiah lun Judah: “Eiskowosyang nu sin tokosra Babylonia. Kulansupwal ac mwet lal, ac kowos fah moul.
13 Why will you die—you and your people—by the sword, famine, and plague, just as I have declared about the nation that refuses to serve the king of Babylon?
Efu ku kom ac mwet lom in misa ke mweun, ku ke sracl, ku ke mas upa? Pa ingan ma LEUM GOD El fahk mu ac sikyak nu sin kutena mutunfacl ma tia fungyang nu sin tokosra lun Babylonia.
14 Do not listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you and say, 'Do not serve the king of Babylon,' for they are prophesying lies to you.
Nimet porongo mwet palu su fahk mu kowos in tia filikowosyang nu sel. Elos kiapwekowos.
15 'For I have not sent them out—this is Yahweh's declaration—for they are prophesying deceit in my name so that I will drive you out and you will perish, both you and the prophets who are prophesying to you.'”
LEUM GOD sifacna El fahk mu El tiana supwalos, ac elos kikiap nu suwos Inel. Ke ma inge El fah liskowosla, ac kowos ac fah anwuki — kowos ac mwet palu su fahk kas kikiap inge nu suwos.”
16 I proclaimed this to the priests and all the people and said, “Yahweh says this: Do not listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you and say, 'Look! The objects belonging to Yahweh's house are being returned from Babylon now!' They are prophesying lies to you.
Na nga fahkang nu sin mwet tol ac mwet uh lah LEUM GOD El fahk: “Nimet porongo mwet palu su fahk mu ma saok lun Tempul fah folokinyukme liki acn Babylonia ke pacl na sa. Elos kikiap nu suwos.
17 Do not listen to them. You should serve the king of Babylon and live. Why should this city become a ruin?
Nimet porongalos! Filikowosyang nu inpoun tokosra Babylonia ac kowos fah moul! Efu ku siti se inge in sie acn oan musalla?
18 If they are prophets, and if the word of Yahweh has truly come to them, let them beg Yahweh of hosts not to send to Babylon the objects that remain in his house, the house of the king of Judah, and Jerusalem.
Elos fin mwet palu pwaye, ac fin kas luk pa oasr selos, lela elos in siyuk sik, LEUM GOD Kulana, in tia fuhlela ma saok lula in Tempul ac inkul fulat lun tokosra, in utukla nu Babylonia.” (
19 Yahweh of hosts says this about the pillars, the large basin known as “The Sea” and its base, and the rest of the objects that remain in this city—
Tuh pa inge ma LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk ke sru, ke tacng bronze, ke mwe wiwa, ac kutu pac ma saok lula in Tempul.
20 the objects that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take when he carried Jehoiachin son of Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem.
Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia el tuh tia usla ma inge ke pacl se el usalla Tokosra Jehoiachin lun Judah, wen natul Jehoiakim, ac mwet leum nukewa lun Judah ac Jerusalem, liki Jerusalem nu in sruoh in acn Babylonia.)
21 Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this about the objects that remain in the house of Yahweh, the house of the king of Judah, and Jerusalem,
“Lohng ma nga LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, fahk ke ma saok lula in Tempul, oayapa in lohm sin tokosra in acn Jerusalem:
22 'They will be brought to Babylon, and they will remain there until the day I have set to come for them—this is Yahweh's declaration—then I will bring them up and restore them to this place.'”
Ma inge ac fah utukla nu Babylonia, na ac fah oan we nwe ke pacl se nga sifil lohang nu kac. Toko nga fah folokonma ac filiya in acn se inge. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
