< Jeremiah 37 >
1 Now Zedekiah son of Josiah reigned as king instead of Jehoiachin son of Jehoiakim. Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had made Zedekiah king over the land of Judah.
Ita, nagturay a kas ari ni Zedekias a putot ni Josias a saan ket a ni Jeconias a putot ni Jehoiakim. Insaad ni Nebucadnesar nga ari ti Babilonia ni Zedekias a kas ari iti entero a daga ti Juda.
2 But Zedekiah, his servants, and the people of the land did not listen to the words of Yahweh that he proclaimed by the hand of Jeremiah the prophet.
Ngem saan a dimngeg ni Zedekias, dagiti adipenna ken dagiti tattao iti daga, kadagiti sasao ni Yahweh nga impakaammona babaen kadagiti ima ni Jeremias a profeta.
3 So King Zedekiah, Jehukal son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah son of Maaseiah the priest sent a message to Jeremiah the prophet. They said, “Pray on our behalf to Yahweh our God.”
Nangipatulod ngarud da ari Zedekias, Jehucal a putot ni Selemias, ken Sofonias a putot ni Maaseias a padi iti mensahe kenni Jeremias a profeta. Kinunada, “Ikararagandakami kenni Yahweh a Diostayo.”
4 Now Jeremiah was coming and going among the people, for he had not yet been put in prison.
Ita, nawaya pay laeng a makilangen-langen ni Jeremias kadagiti tattao, ta saan pay isuna a naibalud.
5 Pharaoh's army came out from Egypt, and the Chaldeans who were besieging Jerusalem heard the news about them and left Jerusalem.
Rimmuar ti armada ni Faraon iti Egipto, ket nadamag dagiti Caldeo a manglaklakub iti Jerusalem ti maipanggep kadakuada ket pinanawanda ti Jerusalem.
6 Then the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah the prophet, saying,
Ket immay ti sao ni Yahweh kenni Jeremias a profeta a kinunana,
7 “Yahweh, God of Israel, says this: This is what you will say to the king of Judah, because he has sent you to seek advice from me, 'See, Pharaoh's army, which came to help you, is about to go back to Egypt, its own land.
“Ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, kastoy ti kunana: Daytoy ti ibagamto iti ari ti Juda, gapu ta imbaonnaka a dumawat iti balakad manipud kaniak, “Kitaem, ti armada ni Faraon nga immay a tumulong kadakayo, ket pasublin idiay Egipto, a bukodda a daga.
8 The Chaldeans will return. They will fight against this city, capture it, and burn it.'
Agsublinto dagiti Caldeo. Gubatendanto daytoy a siudad, sakupen, ken puorandanto daytoy.
9 Yahweh says this: Do not deceive yourselves by saying, 'Surely the Chaldeans are leaving us,' for they will not leave.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: Saanyo nga allilawen dagiti bagbagiyo babaen iti panangibagbagayo, 'Awan duadua a panawandatayo dagiti Caldeo,' ta saandanto a pumanaw.
10 Even if you had defeated the entire Chaldean army that is fighting you so that only wounded men were left in their tents, they would get up and burn this city.”
Uray no maparmekyo ti entero nga armada dagiti Caldeo a makiranget kadakayo tapno dagitinto laeng nasugatan a lallaki ti mabati kadagiti toldada, bumangondanto ket puoranda daytoy a siudad.”
11 So it was when the Chaldean army had left Jerusalem as Pharaoh's army was coming,
Isu nga idi pimmanawen ti armada dagiti Caldeo iti Jerusalem bayat nga um-umay ti armada ni Faraon,
12 then Jeremiah went out from Jerusalem to go to the land of Benjamin. He wanted to take possession of a tract of land there among his people.
ket rimmuar ni Jeremias iti Jerusalem tapno mapan idiay daga ti Benjamin. Kayatna ti mangtagikua iti paset ti daga sadiay, nga isu iti ayan dagiti tattaona.
13 As he was in the Benjamin Gate, a chief guard was there. His name was Irijah son of Shelemiah son of Hananiah. He grabbed hold of Jeremiah the prophet and said, “You are deserting to the Chaldeans.”
Bayat iti kaaddana iti Ruangan ti Benjamin, maysa a panguloen dagiti agbanbantay ti adda sadiay. Ti naganna ket Jerias, ket putot isuna ni Selemias a putot ni Hananias. Ginammatanna ni Jeremias a profeta ket kinunana, “Mapanka tumipon kadagiti Caldeo, ania!”
14 But Jeremiah said, “That is not true. I am not deserting to the Chaldeans.” But Irijah did not listen to him. He took Jeremiah and brought him to the officials.
Ngem kinuna ni Jeremias, “Saan a pudno dayta. Saanak a mapan tumipon kadagiti Caldeo.” Ngem saan a dimngeg ni Jerias kenkuana. Ingguyodna ni Jeremias ket impanna kadagiti opisial.
15 The officials were angry with Jeremiah. They beat him and put him in prison, which had been the house of Jonathan the scribe, for they had turned it into a prison.
Nakaunget dagiti opisial kenni Jeremias. Sinapsaplitda ken imbaludda isuna iti balay ni Jonatan nga eskriba, ta pinagbalinda daytoy a pagbaludan.
16 So Jeremiah was put into an underground cell, where he stayed for many days.
Naibalud ngarud ni Jeremias iti pagbaludan nga adda iti uneg ti daga, a nagtalinaedanna iti adu nga al-aldaw.
17 Then King Zedekiah sent someone who brought him to the palace. In his house, the king asked him privately, “Is there any word from Yahweh?” Jeremiah answered, “There is a word: You will be given into the hand of the king of Babylon.”
Ket nangibaon ni Ari Zedekias iti maysa a tao a mangiyeg kenkuana iti palasio. Iti balayna, nalimed a sinaludsod kenkuana ti ari, “Adda kadi sao manipud kenni Yahweh?” Simmungbat ni Jeremias, “Adda iti sao: “Maiyawatkanto iti ima ti ari ti Babilonia.”
18 Then Jeremiah said to King Zedekiah, “How have I sinned against you, your servants, or this people so that you have placed me in prison?
Ket kinuna ni Jeremias kenni Ari Zedekias, “Ania ti nakabasolak kenka, kadagiti adipenmo wenno kadagitoy a tattao tapno ibaluddak?
19 Where are your prophets, the ones who prophesied for you and said the king of Babylon will not come against you or against this land?
Sadino ti ayan dagiti profetam, dagidiay nagipadto para kenka ken nagkuna a saan nga umay ti ari ti Babilonia a maibusor kenka wenno maibusor iti daytoy a daga?
20 But now listen, my master the king! Let my pleas come before you. Do not return me to the house of Jonathan the scribe, or I will die there.”
Ngem ita dumngegka, apok nga ari! Patgam koma dagiti kiddawko iti sangoanam. Saannak koma nga isubli iti balay ni Jonatan nga eskriba, ta no isublinak sadiay, matayak.”
21 So King Zedekiah gave an order. His servants confined Jeremiah in the courtyard of the guard. A loaf of bread was given him every day from the street of the bakers, until all the bread in the city was gone. So Jeremiah stayed in the courtyard of the guard.
Nangted ngarud ni Zedekias iti bilin. Inkabil dagiti adipenna ni Jeremias iti paraangan nga ayan dagiti agbanbantay. Inaldaw a maik-ikkan isuna iti tinapay manipud iti kalsada dagiti panadero, agingga a naibus dagiti tinapay iti siudad. Nagtalinaed ngarud ni Jeremias iti paraangan nga ayan dagiti agbanbantay.
