Ndị a bụ okwu Jeremaya nwa Hilkaya, bụ otu onye nʼime ndị nchụaja, nọ nʼAnatot nke dị nʼala Benjamin.
2 For the word of the Lord was maad to hym in the daies of Josie, the sone of Amon, kyng of Juda, in the threttenethe yeer of his rewme.
Onye okwu nke Onyenwe anyị bịakwutere nʼafọ nke iri na atọ nʼoge ọchịchị Amọn, eze Juda bụ nwa Josaya.

4 And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
Okwu Onyenwe anyị bịakwutere m, na-asị,
5 and seide, Bifor that Y fourmede thee in the wombe, Y knewe thee; and bifor that thou yedist out of the wombe, Y halewide thee; and Y yaf thee a profete among folkis.
“Amaara m gị tupu a tụrụ ime gị, tupu a mụọ gị, edoro m gị nsọ, ahọpụtakwara m gị dịka onye amụma nye mba niile.”
6 And Y seide, A! A! A! Lord God, lo! Y kan not speke, for Y am a child.
Asịrị m, “Ewoo, Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị. Lee, amaghị m ekwu okwu. Abụ m naanị nwantakịrị.”
7 And the Lord seide to me, Nyle thou seie, that Y am a child; for thou schalt go to alle thingis, to whiche Y schal sende thee, and thou schalt speke alle thingis, what euer thingis Y schal comaunde to thee.
Ma Onyenwe anyị sịrị m, “Asịkwala ‘Abụ m naanị nwantakịrị,’ nʼihi na ị ga-agakwuru onye ọbụla m zigara gị, ị ga-ekwukwa ihe niile m nyere gị nʼiwu.
8 Drede thou not of the face of hem, for Y am with thee, to delyuere thee, seith the Lord.
Atụkwala egwu nʼihi ha, nʼihi na mụ onwe nọnyere gị ịnapụta gị,” ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
9 And the Lord sente his hond, and touchide my mouth; and the Lord seide to me, Lo! Y haue youe my wordis in thi mouth; lo!
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị setịpụrụ aka ya metụ m nʼọnụ, sị m, “Lee, ewerela m okwu m tinye gị nʼọnụ.
10 Y haue ordeynede thee to day on folkis, and on rewmes, that thou drawe vp, and distrie, and leese, and scatere, and bilde, and plaunte.
Lee, taa, ana m eme gị onye nlekọta mba dị iche iche na alaeze niile, ihopu na ikwada, ịla nʼiyi na ịtịkpọkwa ha, i wulite ma kụọkwa.”
11 And the word of the Lord was maad to me, and seide, What seest thou, Jeremye?
Mgbe ahụ, okwu nke Onyenwe anyị bịakwutere m, na-asị, “Jeremaya, gịnị ka ị na-ahụ?” Azara m sị, “Ana m ahụ otu alaka osisi alụmọnd.”
12 And Y seide, Y se a yerde wakynge. And the Lord seide to me, Thou hast seen wel, for Y schal wake on my word, to do it.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị sịrị m, “Ị hụrụ nke ọma, nʼihi na m na-eche okwu ọnụ ịhụ m na m mezuru ha.”
13 And the word of the Lord was maad the secounde tyme to me, and seide, What seest thou? Y se a pot buylynge, and the face therof fro the face of the north.
Okwu Onyenwe anyị bịakwutere m nke ugboro abụọ na-asị, “Gịnị ka ị na-ahụ?” A sịrị m, “Ana m ahụ ite mmiri ọkụ, nke na-agbọ agbọ, nke e mere ka o hulata chee ọnụ ya na ndịda.”
14 And the Lord seide to me, Fro the north schal be schewid al yuel on alle the dwelleris of the lond.
Onyenwe anyị sịrị m, “Ihe egwu ga-esite nʼugwu bịakwasị ndị niile bi nʼala a.
15 For lo! Y schal clepe togidere alle the naciouns of rewmes of the north, seith the Lord, and thei schulen come, and sette ech man his seete in the entryng of the yatis of Jerusalem, and on alle the wallis therof in cumpas, and on alle the citees of Juda.
Ma ugbu a, ana m akpọku ndị niile bi nʼalaeze dị nʼugwu,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya. “Ndị eze ha ga-abịa doo ocheeze ha nʼọnụ ụzọ ama e si abata Jerusalem, imegide ogologo mgbidi nke obodo ahụ gburugburu, na imegidekwa obodo niile nke Juda.
16 And Y schal speke my domes with hem on al the malice of hem, that forsoken me, and maden sacrifice to alien goddis, and worschipiden the werk of her hondis.
Aga m ekwupụta ikpe niile m megide ha, nʼihi ajọ omume ha niile nʼịgbakụta m azụ, na isure ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ nye chi ndị ọzọ, nakwa ịkpọ isiala nye ihe ndị ahụ niile ha ji aka ha kpụọ.
17 Therfor girde thou thi leendis, and rise thou, and speke to hem alle thingis whiche Y comaunde to thee; drede thou not of the face of hem, for Y schal not make thee for to drede the cheer of hem.
“Bilie ọtọ, jikere onwe gị, ka ị pụọ gaa gwa ha ihe ọbụla m nyere gị nʼiwu. Atụkwala ụjọ ha, ma ọ bụghị ya, aga m emenye gị egwu nʼihu ha.
18 For Y yaf thee to dai in to a strong citee, and in to an yrun piler, and in to a brasun wal, on al the lond, to the kyngis of Juda, and to the princis therof, and to the preestis therof, and to al the puple of the lond.
Nʼihi na lee, site taa gaa nʼihu emeela m gị ka ị dịrị ka obodo e wusiri ike. Ị dịkwa ka mgbidi e ji igwe kpụọ, na dịka ibo e ji ọla dị arọ kpụọ, iguzogide ala ahụ niile. Iguzogide ndị eze Juda niile, ndịisi ala Juda niile, na ndị nchụaja niile, na ndị mmadụ ọzọ.
19 And thei schulen fiyte ayens thee, and thei schulen not haue the maistrie; for Y am with thee, seith the Lord, that Y delyuere thee.
Ha ga-agbalị ka ha megide gị, ma ha agaghị emeri gị. Nʼihi na mụ onwe m nọnyeere gị, aga m anapụtakwa gị.” Otu ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
