< Jeremiah 36 >
1 And it was don, in the fourthe yeer of Joachym, sone of Josie, kyng of Juda, this word was maad of the Lord to Jeremye, and seide,
Yudahene Yosia babarima Yehoiakim afe a ɛtɔ so ɛnan mu, saa asɛm yi firi Awurade nkyɛn baa Yeremia hɔ,
2 Take thou the volym of a book, and thou schalt write therynne alle the wordis, whiche Y spake to thee ayens Israel and Juda, and ayens alle folkis, fro the dai in whiche Y spak to thee, fro the daies of Josie `til to this dai.
“Fa nwoma mmobɔeɛ, na twerɛ nsɛm a maka akyerɛ wo fa Israel, Yuda ne aman a aka no ho nyinaa, ɛfiri ɛberɛ a mefirii aseɛ kasa kyerɛɛ wo wɔ Yosia adedie berɛ so bɛsi ɛnnɛ gu so.
3 If perauenture whanne the hous of Juda herith alle the yuels whiche Y thenke to do to hem, ech man turne ayen fro his worste weye, and Y schal be merciful to the wickidnesse and synne of hem.
Ebia, sɛ Yudafoɔ te amanehunu biara a mayɛ mʼadwene sɛ mede bɛba wɔn so a, wɔn mu biara bɛdane afiri nʼamumuyɛ ho na afei mede wɔn amumuyɛ ne wɔn bɔne bɛkyɛ wɔn.”
4 Therfor Jeremye clepide Baruk, the sone of Nerye; and Baruk wroot of the mouth of Jeremye in the volym of a book alle the wordis of the Lord, whiche he spak to hym.
Enti, Yeremia frɛɛ Neria babarima Baruk, na ɛberɛ a ɔreka nsɛm a Awurade aka akyerɛ no nyinaa no, Baruk twerɛ guu nwoma mmobɔeɛ no mu.
5 And Jeremye comaundide to Baruk, and seide, Y am closid, and Y may not entre in to the hous of the Lord.
Afei, Yeremia ka kyerɛɛ Baruk sɛ, “Meda dua mu; merentumi nkɔ Awurade asɔredan mu.
6 Therfor entre thou, and rede of the book, in which thou hast write of my mouth the wordis of the Lord, in hering of the puple, in the hous of the Lord, in the dai of fastyng; ferthermore and in heryng of al Juda, that comen fro her citees, thou schalt rede to hem;
Enti, kɔ Awurade efie mmuadadie da bi na kenkan nsɛm a ɛfiri Awurade nkyɛn a meka ma wotwerɛ guu nwoma mmobɔeɛ no so no kyerɛ nnipa no. Kenkan kyerɛ Yudafoɔ a wɔfiri wɔn nkuro so aba no.
7 if perauenture the preier of hem falle in the siyt of the Lord, and eche man turne ayen fro his worste weie; for whi the strong veniaunce and indignacioun is greet, which the Lord spak ayens this puple.
Ebia wɔde wɔn nkotosrɛ bɛba Awurade anim na wɔn mu biara adane afiri nʼamumuyɛ akwan ho, ɛfiri sɛ abufuo ne abufuhyeɛ nsɛm a Awurade aka atia saa nnipa yi so.”
8 And Baruk, the sone of Nerie, dide aftir alle thingis, which Jeremye, the prophete, comaundide to hym; and he redde of the book the wordis of the Lord, in the hous of the Lord.
Neria babarima Baruk yɛɛ biribiara a odiyifoɔ Yeremia kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no, ɔkenkanee Awurade nsɛm a ɛwɔ nwoma mmobɔeɛ no mu wɔ Awurade asɔredan no mu.
9 Forsothe it was doon, in the fyueth yeer of Joachym, sone of Josie, kyng of Juda, in the nynthe monethe, thei prechiden fastynge in the siyt of the Lord, to al the puple in Jerusalem, and to al the multitude, that cam togidere fro the citees of Juda in to Jerusalem.
Ɔbosome a ɛtɔ so nkron wɔ Yudahene Yosia babarima Yehoiakim adedie afe a ɛtɔ so enum so no, wɔpaee Awurade anim mmuadadie maa nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem nyinaa ne wɔn a wɔfiri Yuda nkuro so aba no.
10 And Baruc redde of the volym the wordis of Jeremye, in the hous of the Lord, in the treserie of Gamarie, sone of Saphan, scryuen, in the hiyere porche, in the entring of the newe yate of the hous of the Lord, in audience of al the puple.
Baruk kenkanee Yeremia nsɛm a ɛwɔ nwoma mmobɔeɛ no mu kyerɛɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Awurade asɔredan no mu nyinaa; firii Safan babarima Gemaria a ɔyɛ ɔtwerɛfoɔ no pia a ɛwɔ asɔredan no atifi adihɔ na ɛbɛn Ɔpono Foforɔ no mu.
11 And whanne Mychie, the sone of Gamarie, sone of Saphan, hadde herd alle the wordis of the Lord,
Ɛberɛ a Safan babarima Gemaria babarima Mikaia tee Awurade nsɛm a ɛwɔ nwoma mmobɔeɛ no mu no,
12 of the book, he yede doun in to the hous of the kyng, to the treserye of the scryuen. And lo! alle the princes saten there, Elisama, the scryuen, and Dalaie, the sone of Semeye, and Elnathan, the sone of Achabor, and Gamarie, the sone of Saphan, and Sedechie, the sone of Ananye, and alle princes.
ɔkɔɔ ɔtwerɛfoɔ no dan a ɛwɔ ahemfie hɔ no mu, baabi a na ɔtwerɛfoɔ Elisama, Semaia babarima Delaia, Akbor babarima Elnatan, Safan babarima Gemaria, Hanania babarima Sedekia ne adwumayɛfoɔ a wɔaka no nyinaa teteɛ.
13 And Mychee telde to hem alle the wordis, whiche he herde Baruc redynge of the book, in the eeris of the puple.
Mikaia kaa nsɛm a Baruk kenkanee firii nwoma mmobɔeɛ no mu nyinaa kyerɛɛ wɔn no akyi,
14 Therfor alle the princes senten to Baruc Judi, the sone of Nathathie, sone of Selemye, sone of Chusi, and seiden, Take in thin hond the book, of which thou reddist in audience of the puple, and come thou. Therfor Baruc, the sone of Nereie, took the book in his hoond, and cam to hem.
adwumayɛfoɔ no nyinaa somaa Kusi babarima Selemia babarima Netania babarima Yehudi sɛ ɔnkɔka nkyerɛ Baruk sɛ, “Fa nwoma mmobɔeɛ a wokenkane firii mu kyerɛɛ nnipa no bra, na bra.” Enti Neria babarima Baruk kɔɔ wɔn hɔ a nwoma mmobɔeɛ no kura no.
15 And thei seiden to hym, Sitte thou, and rede these thingis in oure eeris; and Baruc redde in the eeris of hem.
Wɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛsrɛ wo tena ase, na kenkan kyerɛ yɛn.” Enti Baruk kenkan kyerɛɛ wɔn.
16 Therfor whanne thei hadden herd alle the wordis, thei wondriden ech man to his neiybore, and thei seiden to Baruc, Owen we to telle to the kyng alle these wordis?
Wɔtee saa nsɛm yi nyinaa no, wɔde ehu hwehwɛɛ wɔn ho wɔn ho anim na wɔka kyerɛɛ Baruk sɛ, “Ɛsɛ sɛ yɛka saa nsɛm yi nyinaa kyerɛ ɔhene.”
17 And thei axiden hym, and seiden, Schewe thou to vs, hou thou hast write alle these wordis of his mouth.
Afei, wɔbisaa Baruk sɛ, “Ka kyerɛ yɛn, ɛyɛɛ dɛn na wotwerɛɛ yeinom nyinaa? Yeremia na ɔka ma wotwerɛeɛ anaa?”
18 Forsothe Baruc seide to hem, Of his mouth he spak, as redynge to me, alle these wordis; and Y wroot in a book with enke.
Baruk buaa sɛ, “Aane, ɔno na ɔkaa saa nsɛm yi nyinaa ma mede adubiri twerɛ guu nwoma mmobɔeɛ no mu.”
19 And alle the princes seiden to Baruc, Go, be thou hid, thou and Jeremye; and no man wite where ye ben.
Na adwumayɛfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ Baruk sɛ, “Wo ne Yeremia, monkɔhinta. Monnkyerɛ obiara mo akyiri ɛkwan.”
20 And thei entriden to the kyng, in to the halle; forsothe thei bitoken the book to be kept in to the treserie of Elisame, the scryuen. And thei telden alle the wordis, in audience of the kyng.
Wɔde nwoma mmobɔeɛ no kɔsiee ɔtwerɛfoɔ Elisama dan mu akyi no, wɔkɔɔ ɔhene no nkyɛn wɔ nʼabannwa no mu kɔkaa biribiara kyerɛɛ no.
21 Therfor the kyng sente Judi, that he schulde take the book. Which took the book fro the treserie of Elysame, the scryuen, and redde in audience of the kyng, and of alle the princes, that stoden aboute the kyng.
Ɔhene no somaa Yehudi sɛ, ɔnkɔfa nwoma mmobɔeɛ no mmra. Yehudi kɔfa firii ɔtwerɛfoɔ Elisama dan mu, bɛkenkan kyerɛɛ ɔhene ne adwumayɛfoɔ a wɔgyinagyina ne ho no nyinaa.
22 Forsothe the kyng sat in the wyntir hous, in the nynthe monethe; and a panne ful of coolis was set bifore hym.
Na ɛyɛ ɔbosome a ɛtɔ so nkron a na ɔhene no te awɔberɛ dan mu reto ogya a ɛsi nʼanim.
23 And whanne Judi hadde red thre pagyns, ethir foure, he kittide it with the knyf of a scryueyn, and castide in to the fier, `that was in the panne, til al the book was wastid bi the fier, that was on the panne.
Ɛberɛ biara a Yehudi bɛkenkan nwoma mmobɔeɛ no afaafa bɛyɛ mmiɛnsa anaa ɛnan no, ɔhene no de ɔtwerɛfoɔ sekan, twitwa de gu ogya no mu, kɔsii sɛ nwoma mmobɔeɛ no nyinaa hyeeɛ.
24 And the kyng and alle hise seruauntis, that herden alle these wordis, dredden not, nethir to-renten her clothis.
Ɔhene no ne nʼasomfoɔ a wɔtee saa nsɛm yi nyinaa no ammɔ hu, na wɔansunsuane wɔn ntadeɛ mu nso.
25 Netheles Elnathan, and Dalaie, and Gamarie ayenseiden the kyng, that he schulde not brenne the book; and he herde not hem.
Ɛwom sɛ Elnatan, Delaia ne Gemaria srɛɛ ɔhene no sɛ ɔnnhye nwoma mmobɔeɛ no, nanso wantie wɔn.
26 And the kyng comaundide to Jeremyel, sone of Amalech, and to Saraie, sone of Esreel, and to Selemye, sone of Abdehel, that thei schulden take Baruc, the writer, and Jeremye, the profete; forsothe the Lord hidde hem.
Mmom ɔhene no hyɛɛ ne babarima Yerahmeel, Asriel babarima Seraia ne Abdeel babarima Selemia sɛ, wɔnkɔkye ɔtwerɛfoɔ Baruk ne odiyifoɔ Yeremia mmra. Nanso, na Awurade de wɔn asie.
27 And the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye, the profete, aftir that the kyng hadde brent the book and wordis, whiche Baruc hadde write of Jeremyes mouth;
Ɔhene no hyee nwoma mmobɔeɛ a na nsɛm a Baruk twerɛ firii Yeremia anom wɔ mu no akyi no, Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia nkyɛn sɛ,
28 and he seid, Eft take thou another book, and write therynne alle the former wordis, that weren in the firste book, which Joachym, the kyng of Juda, brente.
“Fa nwoma mmobɔeɛ foforɔ, na twerɛ nsɛm a ɛwɔ kane mmobɔeɛ a Yudahene Yehoiakim hyeeɛ no gu mu.
29 And thou schalt seie to Joachym, kyng of Juda, The Lord seith these thingis, Thou brentist that book, and seidist, What hast thou write therynne, tellynge, The kyng of Babiloyne schal come hastynge, and schal distrie this lond, and schal make man and beeste to ceesse therof?
Afei, ka kyerɛ Yudahene Yehoiakim sɛ, ‘Yei ne deɛ Awurade seɛ: Wohyee nwoma mmobɔeɛ no kaa sɛ: “Adɛn enti na wotwerɛɛ wɔ mu sɛ ɛkwan biara so, Babiloniahene bɛba abɛsɛe asase yi na watɔre ɛso nnipa ne mmoa nyinaa ase?”
30 Therfor the Lord seith these thingis ayens Joachym, king of Juda, Noon schal be of hym, that schal sitte on the seete of Dauid; and his careyn schal be cast forth to the heete bi dai, and to the forst bi niyt.
Ɛno enti, yei ne deɛ Awurade ka fa Yudahene Yehoiakim ho: Ɔrennya obi ntena Dawid ahennwa so. Wɔbɛto ne funu atwene a, wɔrensie no, na wada owia hyeɛ ne anadwo awɔ mu.
31 And Y schal visite ayens hym, and ayens his seed, and ayens hise seruauntis, her wickidnessis. And Y schal bryng on hem, and on the dwelleris of Jerusalem, and on the men of Juda, al the yuel which Y spak to hem, and thei herden not.
Mɛtwe ɔno ne ne mma ne nʼasomfoɔ aso wɔ wɔn amumuyɛ nti; mede amanehunu biara a mahyɛ atia wɔn bɛba wɔn ne wɔn a wɔte Yerusalem ne Yudafoɔ so, ɛfiri sɛ wɔnntieɛ.’”
32 Forsothe Jeremye took an other book, and yaf it to Baruc, the writer, the sone of Nerie, which wroot therynne of Jeremyes mouth alle the wordis of the book, which book Joachym, the kyng of Juda, hadde brent bi fier; and ferthermore many mo wordis weren addid than weren bifore.
Na Yeremia faa nwoma mmobɔeɛ foforɔ, na ɔka maa ne twerɛfoɔ Baruk twerɛeɛ. Ɔkaa biribiara a na ɛwɔ nwoma mmobɔeɛ no a Yudahene Yehoiakim hyee no no so. Na ɔde nsɛm pii kaa ho.
