1 The Lord schewide to me, and lo! twei panyeris ful of figys weren set bifor the temple of the Lord, aftir that Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, translatide Jeconye, the sone of Joachym, the kyng of Juda, and the princes of hym, and a sutil crafti man, and a goldsmith fro Jerusalem, and brouyte hem in to Babiloyne.
Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar faa Yudahene Yehoiakin a ɔyɛ Yehoiakim babarima, nʼadwumayɛfoɔ, nʼadwumfoɔ ne nʼatomfoɔ a wɔwɔ Yuda firii Yerusalem kɔɔ nnommumfa mu wɔ Babilonia no akyi no, Awurade kyerɛɛ me borɔdɔma nkɛntɛn mmienu a wɔde asisi Awurade asɔredan no anim.
2 And o panyere hadde ful good figis, as figis of the firste tyme ben wont to be; and o panyere hadde ful yuel figis, that miyten not be etun, for tho weren yuel figis.
Kɛntɛn baako mu borɔdɔma no yɛ papa te sɛ deɛ ɛbere ntɛm; borɔdɔma a ɛwɔ kɛntɛn a ɛka ho no mu no nyɛ mma sɛdeɛ wɔdie mpo.
3 And the Lord seide to me, Jeremye, what thing seest thou? And Y seide, Figis, goode figis, ful goode, and yuele figis, ful yuele, that moun not be etun, for tho ben yuele figis.
Na Awurade bisaa me sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wohunu, Yeremia?” Mebuaa sɛ, “Borɔdɔma, deɛ ɛyɛ pa ara, ne deɛ ɛnyɛ mma sɛdeɛ wɔdie mpo.”
4 And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
Ɛna Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,
5 and seide, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, As these figis ben goode, so Y schal knowe the transmygracioun of Juda, which I sente out fro this place in to the lond of Caldeis, in to good.
“Yei ne deɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn seɛ: ‘Borɔdɔma papa no gyina hɔ ma atukɔfoɔ a wɔfiri Yuda, wɔn a metwaa wɔn asuo kɔɔ Babilonia asase so no.
6 And Y schal sette myn iyen on hem to plese, and Y schal brynge hem ayen in to this lond; and Y schal bilde hem, and Y schal not distrie hem; and Y schal plaunte hem, and Y schal not drawe vp bi the roote.
Mɛma mʼani aku wɔn ho, ama wɔn yiedie, na mɛsane de wɔn aba ha bio. Mɛsiesie wɔn na merensɛe wɔn. Mɛdua wɔn, na merentu wɔn ase.
7 And Y schal yyue to hem an herte, that thei knowe me, for Y am the Lord; and thei schulen be in to a puple to me, and Y schal be in to God to hem, for thei schulen turne ayen to me in al her herte.
Mɛma wɔn akoma a wɔde bɛhunu me sɛ, me ne Awurade. Wɔbɛyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ, na mɛyɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔde wɔn akoma nyinaa bɛsane aba me nkyɛn.
8 And as the worste figis ben, that moun not be etun, for tho ben yuele figis, the Lord seith these thingis, So Y schal yyue Sedechie, the kyng of Juda, and the princes of hym, and other men of Jerusalem, that dwelliden in this citee, and that dwellen in the lond of Egipt.
“‘Nanso te sɛ borɔdɔma a ɛnyɛ no, deɛ ɛnyɛ mma sɛdeɛ wɔdie mpo no,’ deɛ Awurade seɛ nie, ‘saa ara na mɛyɛ Yudahene Sedekia, nʼadwumayɛfoɔ ne Yerusalem nkaeɛfoɔ, sɛ wɔte asase yi so anaa wɔte Misraim.
9 And Y schal yyue hem into trauelyng and turment in alle rewmes of erthe, in to schenschipe, and in to parable, and in to a prouerbe, and in to cursyng, in alle places to whiche Y castide hem out.
Mɛma wɔn ayɛ akyiwadeɛ ne mfomsodeɛ ama ahennie a ɛwɔ asase so nyinaa, wɔbɛyɛ ahɔhora na wɔabɔ wɔn din bɔne, wɔbɛyɛ asredeɛ ne mmusuo baabiara a mɛpam wɔn akɔ.
10 And Y schal sende in hem a swerd, and hungur, and pestilence, til thei be wastid fro the lond which Y yaf to hem, and to the fadris of hem.
Mɛsoma akofena, ɛkɔm ne yaredɔm akɔ wɔn so kɔsi sɛ wɔbɛsɛe wɔn koraa afiri asase a mede maa wɔn ne wɔn agyanom.’”
