Jeremiah 28
1 And it cometh to pass, in that year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, spoken unto me hath Hananiah son of Azur the prophet, who [is] of Gibeon, in the house of Jehovah, before the eyes of the priests, and all the people, saying,
O ruo, nʼọnwa nke ise nke otu afọ ahụ, nke bụ afọ nke anọ, na mmalite ọchịchị Zedekaya eze Juda, Hananaya, nwa Azoa, onye amụma si Gibiọn, gwara m okwu nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị nʼihu ndị nchụaja na ndị mmadụ si m.
2 'Thus spake Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon;
“Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, bụ Chineke Izrel kwuru, ‘Aga m agbaji agbụ nke eze Babilọn.
3 Within two years of days I am bringing back unto this place all the vessels of the house of Jehovah that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon hath taken from this place, and doth carry to Babylon,
Tupu afọ abụọ agabiga, aga m esi Babilọn bulata ihe ndị ahụ niile Nebukadneza eze Babilọn si nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị bupụ bulaa Babilọn.
4 And Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the removed of Judah, who are entering Babylon, I am bringing back unto this place — an affirmation of Jehovah; for I do break the yoke of the king of Babylon.'
Aga m akpọlatakwa Jehoiakin nwa Jehoiakim, na ndị niile ọzọ e si na Juda dọta nʼagha bulaa Babilọn, nʼihi na aga m agbaji agbụ ahụ eze Babilọn nyanyere ha nʼolu.’” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
5 And Jeremiah the prophet saith unto Hananiah the prophet, before the eyes of the priests, and before the eyes of all the people who are standing in the house of Jehovah,
Mgbe ahụ, Jeremaya onye amụma zara Hananaya onye amụma nʼihu ndị nchụaja na ndị mmadụ niile guzo nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị
6 Yea, Jeremiah the prophet saith, 'Amen! so may Jehovah do; Jehovah establish thy words that thou hast prophesied, to bring back the vessels of the house of Jehovah and all the removal from Babylon, unto this place.
Jeremaya onye amụma sịrị, “Amen! Ka Onyenwe anyị mezuo okwu amụma a i buru site na ibughachite ngwongwo ụlọ Onyenwe anyị na ịkpọghachite ndị niile e mere ka ha si nʼebe a gaa biri na Babilọn.
7 'Only, hear, I pray thee, this word that I am speaking in thine ears, and in the ears of all the people.
Ma gee ntị nụrụ ihe m ga-ekwu nʼihu gị na nʼihu ndị a niile guzo nʼebe a.
8 The prophets who have been before me, and before thee, from of old, even they prophesy concerning many lands, and concerning great kingdoms, of battle, and of evil, and of pestilence.
Site na mgbe ochie, ndị amụma ahụ bu mụ na gị ụzọ ebuola amụma banyere agha na mbibi na ọrịa na-efe efe megide ọtụtụ obodo dị iche iche, na ọtụtụ alaeze dị iche iche.
9 The prophet who doth prophesy of peace — by the coming in of the word of the prophet, known is the prophet that Jehovah hath truly sent him.'
Ma ihe e ji amata na ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị nʼezie, zitere onye amụma buru amụma kwuo na udo ga-adị, bụ naanị ma ọ bụrụ na amụma ya emezuo.”
10 And Hananiah the prophet taketh the yoke from off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, and breaketh it,
Mgbe ahụ, Hananaya bụ onye amụma yipụrụ Jeremaya agbụ ahụ o yikwasịrị onwe ya nʼolu gbajie ya.
11 And Hananiah speaketh before the eyes of all the people, saying, 'Thus said Jehovah, Thus I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, within two years of days, from off the neck of all the nations;' and Jeremiah the prophet goeth on his way.
Ọ sịrị nʼihu ọha mmadụ ahụ niile, “Nke a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru: ‘Ọ bụ nʼotu aka ahụ ka m ga-agbajipụkwa agbụ ịyagba Nebukadneza, eze Babilọn nyanyere nʼolu mba niile tupu afọ abụọ agabiga.’” Mgbe o kwuru otu a, Jeremaya onye amụma hapụrụ ebe ahụ laa.
12 And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah after the breaking, by Hananiah the prophet, of the yoke from off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, saying,
Mgbe Hananaya bụ onye amụma gbajisiri ịyagba ahụ Jeremaya, onye amụma nyanyere onwe ya nʼolu, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru Jeremaya ntị sị ya,
13 'Go, and thou hast spoken unto Hananiah, saying, Thus said Jehovah, Yokes of wood thou hast broken, and I have made instead of them yokes of iron;
“Gaa gwa Hananaya okwu sị ya, ‘Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Ị gbajiela agbụ e ji osisi mee, ma nʼọnọdụ ya ihe ị ga-enweta bụ agbụ igwe.
14 For thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, A yoke of iron I have put on the neck of all these nations to serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and they have served him, and also the beast of the field I have given to him.'
Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, bụ Chineke Izrel, kwuru. Aga m anyanye mba ndị a niile agbụ igwe, i mee ka ha fee Nebukadneza eze Babilọn. Ha ga-efekwa ya. Aga m enyekwa ya ike ọ bụladị nʼebe ụmụ anụ ọhịa dị.’”
15 And Jeremiah the prophet saith unto Hananiah the prophet, 'Hear, I pray thee, O Hananiah; Jehovah hath not sent thee, and thou hast caused this people to trust on falsehood.
Mgbe ahụ, Jeremaya onye amụma sịrị Hananaya onye amụma, “Gee ntị, Hananaya! Ọ bụghị Onyenwe anyị zitere gị, ma ị ghọgbuola mba a mee ka ha tụkwasị uche nʼokwu ụgha.
16 Therefore thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am casting thee from off the face of the ground; this year thou diest, for apostasy thou hast spoken concerning Jehovah.'
Nʼihi nke a, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘Ekpebiela m isite nʼụwa wepụ gị. Ị ga-anwụ nʼafọ a, nʼihi na i kwusaala nnupu isi megide Onyenwe anyị.’”
17 And Hananiah the prophet dieth in that year, in the seventh month.
Nʼọnwa asaa nke afọ ahụ Hananaya onye amụma nwụrụ.
