Jeremiah 37
1 Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned as king instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah.
Sedekiah ọmọ Josiah sì jẹ ọba ní ipò Jehoiakini ọmọ Jehoiakimu ẹni tí Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli fi jẹ ọba ní ilẹ̀ Juda.
2 But neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land, listened to the LORD’s words, which he spoke by the prophet Jeremiah.
Ṣùgbọ́n àti òun àti àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ àti àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà kò fetísí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ó sọ nípa wòlíì Jeremiah.
3 Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, “Pray now to the LORD our God for us.”
Sedekiah ọba sì rán Jehukali ọmọ Ṣelemiah àti Sefaniah ọmọ Maaseiah sí Jeremiah wòlíì wí pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ gbàdúrà sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa fún wa.”
4 Now Jeremiah came in and went out amongst the people, for they had not put him into prison.
Nígbà yìí Jeremiah sì ń wọlé, ó sì ń jáde láàrín àwọn ènìyàn nítorí wọ́n ti fi sínú túbú.
5 Pharaoh’s army had come out of Egypt; and when the Kasdim who were besieging Jerusalem heard news of them, they withdrew from Jerusalem.
Àwọn ọmọ-ogun Farao ti jáde kúrò nílẹ̀ Ejibiti àti nígbà tí àwọn ará Babeli tó ń ṣàtìpó ní Jerusalẹmu gbọ́ ìròyìn nípa wọn, wọ́n kúrò ní Jerusalẹmu.
6 Then the LORD’s word came to the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Jeremiah wòlíì Ọlọ́run wá:
7 “The LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘You shall tell the king of Judah, who sent you to me to enquire of me: “Behold, Pharaoh’s army, which has come out to help you, will return to Egypt into their own land.
“Èyí ni, ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn Israẹli sọ fún ọba àwọn Juda tó rán ọ láti wádìí nípa mi. ‘Àwọn ọmọ-ogun Farao tó jáde láti kún ọ lọ́wọ́ yóò padà sílẹ̀ wọn sí Ejibiti.
8 The Kasdim will come again, and fight against this city. They will take it and burn it with fire.”’
Nígbà náà ni àwọn ará Babeli yóò padà láti gbógun ti ìlú. Wọn yóò mú wọn nígbèkùn, wọn yóò sì fi iná jó ìlú náà kanlẹ̀.’
9 “The LORD says, ‘Don’t deceive yourselves, saying, “The Kasdim will surely depart from us;” for they will not depart.
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, ẹ má ṣe tan ara yín jẹ ní èrò wí pé, ‘Àwọn ará Babeli yóò fi wá sílẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìdánilójú.’ Wọn kò ní ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.
10 For though you had struck the whole army of the Kasdim who fight against you, and only wounded men remained amongst them, they would each rise up in his tent and burn this city with fire.’”
Kódà tó bá ṣe pé wọn yóò ṣẹ́gun àwọn ọmọ-ogun Babeli tí ń gbóguntì yín àti àwọn tí ìjàǹbá ṣe, tí wọ́n ti fi sílẹ̀ ní ibùdó wọn; wọn yóò jáde láti jó ìlú náà kanlẹ̀.”
11 When the army of the Kasdim had withdrawn from Jerusalem for fear of Pharaoh’s army,
Lẹ́yìn tí àwọn ọmọ-ogun Babeli ti kúrò ní Jerusalẹmu nítorí àwọn ọmọ-ogun Farao.
12 then Jeremiah went out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, to receive his portion there, in the middle of the people.
Jeremiah múra láti fi ìlú náà sílẹ̀, láti lọ sí olú ìlú Benjamini láti gba ẹ̀tọ́ rẹ̀ nínú ohun ìní láàrín àwọn ènìyàn tó wà níbẹ̀.
13 When he was in Benjamin’s gate, a captain of the guard was there, whose name was Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah; and he seized Jeremiah the prophet, saying, “You are defecting to the Kasdim!”
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí wọ́n dé ẹnu ibodè Benjamini, olórí àwọn olùṣọ́ tí orúkọ rẹ ń jẹ́ Irijah ọmọ Ṣelemiah ọmọ Hananiah mú un, ó wí pé, “Ìwọ ń fi ara mọ́ àwọn ará Babeli.”
14 Then Jeremiah said, “That is false! I am not defecting to the Kasdim.” But he didn’t listen to him; so Irijah seized Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes.
Jeremiah sọ wí pé, “Èyí kì í ṣe òtítọ́! Èmi kò yapa sí àwọn ará Babeli.” Ṣùgbọ́n Irijah ko gbọ́ tirẹ̀, dípò èyí a mú Jeremiah, ó sì mú un lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ìjòyè.
15 The princes were angry with Jeremiah, and struck him, and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe; for they had made that the prison.
Nítorí náà ni àwọn ìjòyè ṣe bínú sí Jeremiah, wọ́n jẹ ẹ́ ní yà, wọ́n tún fi sí túbú nílé Jonatani akọ̀wé nítorí wọ́n ti fi èyí ṣe ilé túbú.
16 When Jeremiah had come into the dungeon house and into the cells, and Jeremiah had remained there many days,
Wọ́n fi Jeremiah sínú túbú tí ó ṣókùnkùn biribiri; níbi tí ó wà fún ìgbà pípẹ́.
17 then Zedekiah the king sent and had him brought out. The king asked him secretly in his house, “Is there any word from the LORD?” Jeremiah said, “There is.” He also said, “You will be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon.”
Nígbà náà ni ọba Sedekiah ránṣẹ́ sí i, tí ó sì pàṣẹ pé kí wọ́n mú wá sí ààfin níbi tí ó ti bi í ní ìkọ̀kọ̀ pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ọ̀rọ̀ kan wà láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa?” Jeremiah fèsì pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, wọn ó fi ọ́ lé ọwọ́ ọba Babeli.”
18 Moreover Jeremiah said to King Zedekiah, “How have I sinned against you, against your servants, or against this people, that you have put me in prison?
Nígbà náà, Jeremiah sọ fún ọba Sedekiah pé, “Irú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wo ni mo ṣẹ̀ yín, àwọn ìjòyè yín pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn tí ẹ fi sọ mí sínú túbú?
19 Now where are your prophets who prophesied to you, saying, ‘The king of Babylon will not come against you, nor against this land’?
Níbo ni àwọn wòlíì yín tí wọ́n ń sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ fún un yín wí pé ọba Babeli kò ní gbóguntì yín wá?
20 Now please hear, my lord the king: please let my supplication be presented before you, that you not cause me to return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there.”
Ṣùgbọ́n ní báyìí, olúwa mi ọba, èmí bẹ̀ ọ. Jẹ́ kí n mú ẹ̀dùn ọkàn mi tọ̀ ọ́ wá; má ṣe rán mi padà sí ilé Jonatani akọ̀wé, àfi kí n kú síbẹ̀.”
21 Then Zedekiah the king commanded, and they committed Jeremiah into the court of the guard. They gave him daily a loaf of bread out of the bakers’ street, until all the bread in the city was gone. Thus Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.
Ọba Sedekiah wá pàṣẹ pé kí wọ́n fi Jeremiah sínú àgbàlá àwọn ẹ̀ṣọ́, àti kí wọn sì fún ní àkàrà ní ọjọ́ kọ̀ọ̀kan títí tí àkàrà tó wà ní ìlú yóò fi tán; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jeremiah wà nínú àgbàlá náà.
