Jeremiah 27
1 In the bigynnyng of the rewme of Joachym, the sone of Josie, kyng of Juda, this word was maad of the Lord to Jeremye, and seide,
Katika mwanzo wa utawala wa Sedekia mwana wa Yosia, mfalme wa Yuda, neno hil lilimjia Yeremia kutoka kwa Yahwe. (Ingawa nakala nyingi za Kiebrania zinasema “Yehoyakimu, matoleo mengi ya kisasa yanasema “Sedekia”, kwa sababu tukio katika sura hii lilitokea katika kipindi cha utawala wake).
2 The Lord seith these thingis to me, Make thou to thee boondis and chaynes, and thou schalt putte tho in thi necke;
Hiki ndicho Yahwe alisema kwangu, “Tengeneza vifungo na nira kwa ajili yako mwenyewe. Ziweke shingoni mwako.
3 and thou schalt sende tho to the kyng of Edom, and to the kyng of Moab, and to the kyng of the sones of Amon, and to the kyng of Tyre, and to the kyng of Sidon, bi the hond of messangeris that camen to Jerusalem, and to Sedechie, kyng of Juda.
Kisha akawatuma kwenda kw mfalme wa Edomu, mfalme wa Moabu, mfalme wa watu wa amoni, mfalme wa Tiro, na kwa mfalme wa Sidoni. Watume kwa mkono wa wajumbe hao wa wafalme ambao walikuja Yerusalemu kwa Sedekia mfalme wa Yuda.
4 And thou schalt comaunde to hem, that thei speke to her lordis, The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Ye schulen seie these thingis to youre lordis,
Toa amri kwao kwa ajili ya mabwana zao na sema, ' Yahwe wa majeshi, Mungu wa Israeli, anasema hivi: Hivyo ndivyo utakavyosema kwa mabwana zenu,
5 Y made erthe, and man, and beestis that ben on the face of al erthe, in my greet strengthe, and in myn arm holdun forth; and Y yaf it to hym that plesyde bifore myn iyen.
Mimi mwenyewe niliiumba dunia kwa nguvu zangu kuu na mkono wangu ulioinuka. Pia niliwaumba watu na wanyama juu ya dunia, na nikawatoa kwa yeyote aliyesahihi katika macho yangu.
6 And now therfor Y yaf alle these londis in the hond of Nabugodonosor, my seruaunt, the kyng of Babiloyne; ferthermore and Y yaf to hym the beestis of the feeld, that thei serue hym.
Kwa hiyo sasa, Mimi mwenyewe naziweka nchi hizi zote kwenye mkono wa Nebukadreza, mfalme wa Babeli, mtumishi wangu. Pia, ninavikabidhi kwake viumbe hai vyote katika mashamba ili vimtumikie.
7 And alle folkis schulen serue hym, and his sone, and the sone of his sone, til the tyme of his lond and of hym come; and many folkis and grete kyngis schulen serue hym.
Kwa maana mataifa yote watamtumikia yeye, wanaye, na wajukuu zake hadi muda wa nchi yake ufike. Kisha mataifa mengi na wafalme wengi watamtiisha.
8 Forsothe the folk and rewme that serueth not Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, and whoeuer bowith not his necke vndur the yok of the kyng of Babiloyne, Y schal visite on that folk in swerd, and hungur, and pestilence, seith the Lord, til Y waaste hem in his hond.
Kwa hiyo taifa na ufalme ambo haumtumikii Nebukadreza, mfalme wa Babeli, na ule usioweka shingo yake chini ya nira ya Nebukadreza mfalme wa Babeli—nitaliadhibu taifa hilo kwa upanga, njaa, na pigo—hili ni tangazo la Yahwe—hadi nitakapokuwa nimewateketeza kwa mkono wake.
9 Therfor nyle ye here youre profetis, and false dyuynouris, and dremeris, and dyuyneris bi chiteryng and fleyng of briddis, and witchis, that seien to you, Ye schulen not serue the kyng of Babiloyne;
Kwa hiyo msiwasikilize manabii wenu, wabashiri wenu, waonaji wenu, ndoto zenu, watambuzi wenu, ambao wamekuw wakisema kwenu na kusema, ' Msimtumikie mfalme wa Babeli.'
10 for thei profesien a lessyng to you, that thei make you fer fro youre lond, and caste out you, and ye perische.
Kwa maana wanatabiri uongo kwenu ili kuwapeleka mbali na nchi zenu, kwa maana nitawapeleka mbali, na mtakufa.
11 Certis the folk that makith suget her nol vndur the yok of the kyng of Babiloyne, and serueth hym, Y schal dismytte it in his lond, seith the Lord; and it schal tile that lond, and schal dwelle therynne.
Lakini taifa ambalo wataweka shingo zao chini ya nira ya mfalme wa Babeli na kumtumikia, nitawaruhusu kupumzika katika nchi yao—hili ni tangazo la Yahwe—na watailima na kufanya nyumba zao humo.””
12 And Y spak bi alle these wordis to Sedechie, kyng of Juda, and Y seide, Make ye suget youre neckis vndur the yok of the kyng of Babiloyne, and serue ye hym, and his puple, and ye schulen lyue.
Kwa hiyo nilisema kwa Sedekia mfalme wa Yuda na kumpa ujumbe huu, “Ziwekeni shingo zenu chini ya nira ya mfalme wa Babeli na mtumikieni yeye na watu wake, na mtaishi.
13 Whi schulen ye die, thou and thi puple, bi swerd, and hungur, and pestilence, as the Lord spak to the folk, that nolde serue to the kyng of Babiloyne?
Kwa nini mfe—wewe na watu wako—kwa upanga, njaa, na pigo, kama vile nilivyotangaza kuhusu taifa ambalo watapuuza kumtumikia mfalme wa Babeli?
14 Nyle ye here the wordis of profetis seiynge to you, Ye schulen not serue the kyng of Babiloyne; for thei speken leesyng to you, for Y sente not hem, seith the Lord;
Msisikilize maneno ya manabii wanaozungumza kwenu na kusema, 'Msimtumikie mfalme wa Babeli', kwa maana wanatabiri uongo kwenu.
15 and thei profesien falsly in my name, that thei caste out you, and that ye perische, bothe ye and the profetis that profesien to you.
'Kwa maana mimi sikuwatuma—hili ni tangazo la Yahwe—kwa maana wanatabiri uongo katika jina langu ili kwamba niwafukeze inje na muangamie, ninyi nyote na manabii wanaotabiri kwenu.”'
16 And Y spak to the preestis, and to this puple, and Y seide, The Lord God seith these thingis, Nyle ye here the wordis of youre profetis, that profesien to you, and seien, Lo! the vessels of the Lord schulen turne ayen now soone fro Babiloyne; for thei profesien a leesyng to you.
Nilitangaza hili kwa makuhani na watu wote na kusema, “Yahwe anasema hivi: Msisikilize maneno ya manabii wanaotabiri kwenu na kusema, 'Angalia! Vyombo vya nyumba ya Yahwe vinarudishwa kutoka Babeli sasa hivi!' Wanatabiri uongo kwenu.
17 Therfor nyle ye here hem, but serue ye to the kyng of Babiloyne, that ye lyue; whi is this citee youun in to wildirnesse?
Msiwasikilize. Mtamtumikia mfalme wa Babeli na mtaishi. Kwa nini mji huu uangamizwe?
18 And if thei ben profetis, and if the word of God is in hem, renne thei to the Lord of oostis, that the vessels whiche weren left in the hous of the Lord, and in the hous of the kyng of Juda, and in Jerusalem, come not in to Babiloyne.
Kama ni manabii, na kama neno la Mungu limekuja kwao kweli, basi wamwombe Yahwe wa majeshi asivipeleke Babeli vyombo vilivyosalia katika nyumba, nyumba ya mfalme wa Yuda, na Yerusalemu.
19 For the Lord of oostis seith these thingis to the pilers, and to the see, that is, a greet waischyng vessel, and to the foundementis, and to the remenauntis of vessels, that weren left in this citee,
Yahwe wa majeshi anasema hivi kuhusu zile nguzo, bahari, na kitako, na vyombo vyote vilivyosalia katika mji huu—
20 whiche Nabugodonosor, king of Babiloyne, took not, whanne he translatide Jeconye, the sone of Joachim, king of Juda, fro Jerusalem in to Babiloyne, and alle the principal men of Juda and of Jerusalem.
vyombo ambavyo Nebukadreza mfalme wa Babeli hakuvichukua wakati alipomchukua Yekonia mwana wa Yehoyakimu, mfalme wa Yuda, katika utumwa kutoka Yerusalemu kwenda Babeli pamoja na wakuu wote wa Yuda na Yerusalemu.
21 For the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis to the vessels that ben left in the hous of the Lord, and in the hous of the king of Juda, and in Jerusalem, Tho schulen be translatid in to Babiloyne,
Yahwe wa majeshsi, Mungu wa Israeli, anasema hivi kuhusu vyombo vilivyosalia katika nyumba ya Yahwe, nyumba ya mfalme wa Yuda, na Yerusalemu,
22 and schulen be there `til to the dai of her visitacioun, seith the Lord; and Y schal make tho to be brouyt, and to be restorid in this place.
'Vitaletwa Babeli, na vitabaki huko hadi siku niyovipangia kutimia—hili ni tangazo la Yahwe—kisha nitavileta na kuvirudisha kataika sehemu hii.”
