Ko e folofola naʻe hoko meia Sihova kia Selemaia, hili hono tukuange ia mei Lama ʻe Nepusaatani ko e ʻeiki ʻoe kau leʻo, he naʻe haʻisia ʻaki ia ʻae maea ukamea fihifihi fakataha mo e kau pōpula kotoa pē ʻo Selūsalema mo Siuta, ʻaia naʻe ʻave fakapōpula ki Papilone.
2 Esi aʋafia la ke ɖe Yeremia ŋu la, egblɔ nɛ be, “Yehowa, wò Mawu lae gblɔ dzɔgbevɔ̃e sia ɖe teƒe sia ŋu.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau leʻo kia Selemaia, “Kuo fakahā ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻae kovi ni, ki he potu ni.

Pea ko eni, kuo fakahoko ia ʻe Sihova, pea kuo fai ʻo hangē ko ʻene folofola: koeʻuhi kuo mou fai angahala kia Sihova, pea ʻikai talangofua ki hono leʻo, ko ia kuo hoko ai ʻae meʻa ni kiate kimoutolu.
4 Ke egbe la, meɖe ga le alɔnu na wò, ne elɔ̃ la, kplɔm ɖo míayi Babilonia, makpɔ dziwò nyuie, gake ne melɔ̃ o la, ate ŋu anɔ anyi faa. Kpɔ ɖa, anyigba blibo la le ŋkuwò me, yi afi sia afi si nèlɔ̃ la faa.”
Pea ko eni, vakai, kuo u vete mei ho nima he ʻaho ni ʻae maea ukamea fihifihi. Pea kapau ʻoku lelei kiate koe ke tā ʻo mo au ki Papilone, haʻu; pea te u fai lelei kiate koe: pea kapau ʻoku kovi kiate koe ke tā ʻo mo au ki Papilone, tuku: vakai ʻoku ʻi ho ʻao ʻae fonua kotoa pē: pea ko e potu ʻoku lelei mo ʻaonga kiate koe ke ʻalu ki ai, ke ke ʻalu ki ai.”
5 Gake hafi Yeremia natrɔ be yeadzo la, Nebuzaradan gblɔ kpe ɖe eŋu nɛ be, “Trɔ yi ɖe Gedalia, Ahikam ƒe vi, Safan ƒe vi ame si Babilonia fia tsɔ ɖo Yuda duwo nu la gbɔ eye nànɔ egbɔ le ameawo dome alo nàyi afi sia afi si nèlɔ.” Emegbe aʋafia la tsɔ nu hiahiã aɖewo kple nunana aɖe nɛ eye wòɖe asi le eŋu.
Pea ʻi he teʻeki ai te ne liliu atu, naʻa ne pehē, “Ko ia ke ke nofo mo Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami ko e foha ʻo Safani, ʻaia naʻe fakanofo ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ke pule ki he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, pea ke ke nofo mo ia mo e kakai: pe te ke ʻalu ki ha potu ʻoku lelei kiate koe ke ʻalu ki ai,” Pea naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau leʻo ʻae ʻoho mo e totongi, pea tukuange ia.
6 Ale Yeremia yi ɖe Ahikam ƒe vi, Gedalia gbɔ le Mizpa eye wònɔ egbɔ le ame siwo susɔ ɖe anyigba la dzi la dome.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa Selemaia kia Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami ʻi Misipa; ʻo nofo mo ia pea mo e kakai naʻe toe ʻi he fonua.

Pea naʻe fuakava kiate kinautolu mo ʻenau kakai ʻe Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami ko e foha ʻo Safani, ʻo pehē, “ʻOua naʻa mou manavahē ke tauhi ki he kau Kalitia: mou nofo ʻi he fonua, pea tauhi ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea ʻe lelei ia kiate kimoutolu.
10 Nye ŋutɔ manɔ Mizpa, be manɔ mia teƒe le Babiloniatɔ siwo va mia gbɔ la ŋkume. Ke miawo la, mixa wain tsetsewo, dzomeŋɔli ƒe kutsetsewo eye miɖa ami, miazi wo ɖe amigowo me eye minɔ du siwo míexɔ la me.”

Pea naʻe haʻu kia Ketalia ʻi Misipa, ʻa Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Kalia, pea mo e houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻoe kau tau naʻe ʻi he ngoue.
14 eye wogblɔ nɛ be, “Mènya be Amonitɔwo ƒe fia Balis dɔ Netania ƒe vi, Ismael be wòava ɖe wò agbe ɖa oa?” Ke Ahikam ƒe vi, Gedalia mexɔ woƒe nya la dzi se o.
Pea nau pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ke ʻilo pau kuo fekau ʻe Pelisi ko e tuʻi ʻoe kau ʻAmoni ʻa ʻIsimeʻeli ko e foha ʻo Natania ke tāmateʻi koe?” Ka naʻe ʻikai tui kiate kinautolu ʻe Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami kia Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Kalia, “ʻE ʻikai te ke fai ʻae meʻa ni: he ʻoku ke lohiakiʻi ʻa ʻIsimeʻeli.”
