4 Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔ na ame siwo katã mekplɔ tso Yerusalem yi ɖe aboyo mee le Babilonia,

And Jeremye seide, The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis to al the passyng ouer, which Y translatide fro Jerusalem in to Babiloyne,

5 “Mitso aƒewo ne mianɔ wo me, mide agble eye miaɖu emenuwo.

Bilde ye housis, and enhabite, and plaunte ye orcherdis, and ete ye fruyt of tho;

6 Miɖe srɔ̃ ne miadzi viŋutsuwo kple vinyɔnuwo. Miɖe srɔ̃ na mia viŋutsuwo kple mia vinyɔnuwo, ale be woawo hã nadzi viŋutsuwo kple vinyɔnuwo. Midzi ɖe edzi le afi ma ke migazu ʋɛe o.

take ye wyues, and gendre ye sones and douytris, and yyue ye wyues to youre sones, and yyue ye youre douytris to hosebondis, and bere thei sones and douytris; and be ye multiplied there, and nyle ye be fewe in noumbre.

And seke ye pees of the citees, to whiche Y made you to passe ouer; and preie ye the Lord for it, for in the pees therof schal be pees to you.

8 Ɛ̃, ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: “Migana Nyagblɔɖila kple bokɔnɔ siwo le mia dome la nable mi o. Migalé to ɖe drɔ̃e siwo miede dzi ƒo na wo be woaku la ŋuti o.

The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Youre profetis, that ben in the myddis of you, and youre dyuynours disseyue you not; and take ye noon heede to youre dremes, whiche ye dremen;

9 Aʋatsonyawo gblɔm wole ɖi na mi le nye ŋkɔ me. Nyemedɔ wo o.” Yehowae gblɔe.

for thei profesien falsli to you in my name, and Y sente not hem, seith the Lord.

10 Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Ne ƒe blaadre de na Babilonia vɔ la, mava mia gbɔ eye mawɔ ɖe amenuveveŋugbe si medo, be magakplɔ mi va teƒe sia la dzi.

For the Lord seith thes thingis, Whanne seuenti yeer bigynnen to be fillid in Babiloyne, Y schal visite you, and Y schal reise on you my good word, and Y schal brynge you ayen to this place.

11 Yehowa be, menya ɖoɖo siwo mewɔ ɖe mia ŋu, mewɔ ɖoɖo be nu nadze edzi na mi, menye mawɔ vɔ̃ mi o, be mana mɔkpɔkpɔ mi eye ŋu nyui aɖe hã nake na mi.

For Y knowe the thouytis whiche Y thenke on you, seith the Lord, the thouytis of pees, and not of turment, that Y yyue to you an ende and pacience.

12 Ekema miayɔm eye matɔ na mi, miado gbe ɖa nam eye maɖo to mi.

And ye schulen clepe me to help, and ye schulen go, and schulen worschipe me, and Y schal here you;

13 Miadim eye miakpɔm; ne miedim kple miaƒe dzi blibo ko.

ye schulen seke me, and ye schulen fynde, whanne ye seken me in al youre herte.

14 Miake ɖe ŋunye, eye makplɔ mi agbɔe tso aboyo me. Maƒo mia nu ƒu tso dukɔwo katã me kple teƒe siwo katã menya mi ɖo ɖo, eye magakplɔ mi ava teƒe sia, afi si mekplɔ mi tsoe yi ɖe aboyo mee.” Yehowae gblɔe.

And Y schal be foundun of you, seith the Lord, and Y schal brynge ayen youre caitifte, and Y schal gadere you fro alle folkis, and fro alle places, to whiche Y castide out you, seith the Lord; and Y schal make you to turne ayen fro the place, to which Y made you to passe ouer.

15 Miagblɔ be, “Yehowa ɖo nyagblɔɖilawo na mi le Babilonia.”

For ye seiden, The Lord schal reise profetis to vs in Babiloyne.

16 Gake ale Yehowa gblɔ le fia si nɔ David ƒe fiazikpui dzi, ame siwo katã susɔ ɖe du sia me, miaƒe dumetɔ siwo meyi aboyo me o la ŋuti,

For the Lord seith these thingis to the kyng, that sittith on the seete of Dauid, and to al the puple, dwellere of this citee, to youre britheren, that yeden not out with you in to the passyng ouer,

17 Ɛ̃, ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi: “Madɔ yi, dɔwuame kple dɔvɔ̃ ɖe wo ŋuti eye mawɔ wo abe gbotsetse manyomanyo si ƒaƒã ale gbegbe be womate ŋu aɖui o la ene.

The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal sende among hem swerd, and hungur, and pestilence; and Y schal sette hem as yuele figis, that moun not be etun, for tho ben ful yuele.

18 Mati wo yome kple yi, dɔwuame kple dɔvɔ̃, eye woanye ŋɔdzinu na anyigbadzidukɔwo katã. Woazu ɖiŋudonu, bibi, alɔmeɖenu kple vlodonu le dukɔ siwo katã dome menya wo ɖo ɖo la.

And Y schal pursue hem in swerd, and in hungur, and in pestilence; and Y schal yyue hem in to trauelyng in alle rewmes of erthe, in to cursyng, and in to wondryng, and in to scornyng, and in to schenschipe to alle folkis, to whiche Y castide hem out.

19 Elabena womeɖo to nye nyawo o, nya siwo meɖo ɖe wo enuenu to nye dɔla nyagblɔɖilawo dzi. Ke mi aboyomewo hã mieɖo to o,” Yehowae gblɔe.

For thei herden not my wordis, seith the Lord, which Y sente to hem bi my seruauntis, profetis, and roos bi nyyt, and sente, and ye herden not, seith the Lord.

20 Eya ta mise Yehowa ƒe nya, mi ame siwo meɖo ɖe aboyo me le Babilonia tso Yerusalem.

Therfor al the passyng ouer, which Y sente out fro Jerusalem in to Babiloyne, here ye the word of the Lord.

21 Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ kple Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔ le Ahab, Kolaya ƒe vi kple Zedekia, Maaseya ƒe vi, ame siwo le aʋatsonyagblɔɖiwo gblɔm le nye ŋkɔ dzi la ŋutie nye esi: “Makplɔ wo ade asi na Babilonia fia, Nebukadnezar eye wòawu wo le mia ŋkume.

The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis to Achab, the sone of Chulie, and to Sedechie, the sone of Maasie, that profesien to you a leesyng in my name, Lo! Y schal bitake hem in to the hond of Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, and he schal smyte hem bifore youre iyen.

22 Le wo ta la, ame siwo katã yi aboyo me le Babilonia tso Yuda la awɔ fiƒodenya siawo ŋu dɔ, ‘Yehowa awɔ wò abe Zedekia kple Ahab ene, ame siwo Babilonia fia tɔ dzoe.’

And cursyng schal be takun of hem to al the passyng ouer of Juda, which is in Babiloyne, of men seiynge, The Lord sette thee as Sedechie, and as Achab, whiche the kyng of Babiloyne friede in fier,

23 Elabena wowɔ ŋukpenanu le Israel, wowɔ ahasi kple wo haviwo srɔ̃wo eye woka aʋatso le nye ŋkɔ me, evɔ nyemegblɔe na wo be wonewɔ nenema o. Menya eye menye ɖasefo nɛ.” Yehowae gblɔe.

for thei diden foli in Israel, and diden auowtrie on the wyues of her frendis; and thei spaken a word falsli in my name, which Y comaundide not to hem; Y am iuge and witnesse, seith the Lord.

24 Gblɔ na Semaya, Nehelamitɔ be,

And thou schalt seie to Semei Neelamyte,

25 “Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: ‘Eŋlɔ agbalẽ le wò ŋutɔ wò ŋkɔ me heɖo ɖe Yerusalemtɔwo katã, na nunɔla Zefania, Maaseya ƒe vi kple nunɔla bubuawo.’ Eŋlɔ na Zefania be,

The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, For that that thou sentist bookis in my name to al the puple, which is in Jerusalem, and to Sofony, the sone of Maasie, the preest, and to alle the prestis,

26 ‘Yehowa ɖo wò nunɔlae ɖe Yehoiada teƒe be nànye Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la dzi kpɔla, eye ne aɖaʋatɔ aɖe va le nu wɔm abe nyagblɔɖila ene la, lée de kunyowu me, eye nàde ga kɔ nɛ.

and seidist, The Lord yaf thee the preest for Joiada, the preest, that thou be duyk in the hous of the Lord on ech man `that is trauelid of the fend, and profesiynge, that thou sende hym in to stockis, and in to prisoun.

27 Ekema nu ka ta mèka mo na Yeremia, Anatɔt la, ame si le nyagblɔɖila ƒe dɔ wɔm le mia dome la o?

And now whi blamest thou not Jeremye of Anathot, that profesieth to you?

28 Eɖo agbalẽ sia ɖe mi le Babilonia be mianɔ afi ma wòadidi, eya ta mitso aƒewo mianɔ wo me, miade agble, eye miaɖu emenuwo.’”

For on this thing he sente to vs in to Babiloyne, and seide, It is long; bielde ye housis, and enhabite, and plaunte ye orcherdis, and ete ye the fruit of tho.

29 Ke Nunɔla Zefania xlẽ agbalẽ la na Nyagblɔɖila Yeremia.

Therfor Sofonye, the preest, redde this book in the eeris of Jeremye, the prophete.

30 Tete Yehowa ƒe nya va na Yeremia be,

And the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye,

31 “Ɖo gbedeasi sia ɖe aboyomeawo katã be, ‘Ale Yehowa gblɔ le Semaya, Nehelamitɔ la ŋutie nye esi: “Esi Semaya gblɔ nya ɖi na mi, evɔ nyemedɔe o eye wòna miexɔ beblenya dzi se ta la,”

and seide, Sende thou to al the passyng ouer, and seie, The Lord seith these thingis to Semeye Neelamite, For that that Semeye profesiede to you, and Y sente not hym, and he made you to triste in a leesyng;

32 ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: Mahe to na Semaya, Nehelamitɔ kple eƒe dzidzimeviwo katã, eƒe ƒometɔ aɖeke masusɔ ɖe eƒe amewo dome alo akpɔ nu nyui si mawɔ na nye dukɔ la o, elabena egblɔ nya be woadze aglã ɖe ŋutinye.’” Yehowae gblɔe.

therfor the Lord seith thes thingis, Lo! Y schal visite on Semeye Neelamyte, and on his seed; and no man sittynge in the myddis of this puple schal be to hym; and he schal not se the good, which Y schal do to my puple, seith the Lord, for he spak trespassyng ayens the Lord.
