< Jeremia 36 >

1 Mwaka-inĩ wa ĩna kuuma Jehoiakimu mũrũ wa Josia atuĩka mũthamaki wa Juda-rĩ, ndũmĩrĩri ĩno nĩyakinyĩire Jeremia yumĩte harĩ Jehova, akĩĩrwo ũũ:
And in the fourth yeere of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah, came this word vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, saying,
2 “Oya ibuku rĩa gĩkũnjo wandĩke thĩinĩ warĩo mohoro marĩa mothe ngũheete makoniĩ Isiraeli na Juda, o hamwe na ndũrĩrĩ iria ingĩ ciothe, kuuma ihinda rĩrĩa ndambĩrĩirie gũkwarĩria hĩndĩ ya wathani wa Josia, o nginya ũmũthĩ.
Take thee a roule or booke, and write therein all the wordes that I haue spoken to thee against Israel, and against Iudah, and against all the nations, from the day that I spake vnto thee, euen from the dayes of Iosiah vnto this day.
3 Hihi rĩrĩa andũ a Juda makaigua ũhoro wa mwanangĩko ũrĩa wothe njiirĩire kũmarehithĩria-rĩ, mũndũ o mũndũ wao ahota kũgarũrũka atigane na mĩthiĩre yake ya waganu; na niĩ nĩngamarekera waganu wao na mehia mao.”
It may bee that the House of Iudah will heare of all the euill, which I determined to doe vnto them that they may returne euery man from his euil way, that I may forgiue their iniquitie and their sinnes.
4 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jeremia agĩĩta Baruku mũrũ wa Neria, nake Jeremia akĩmwĩra maũndũ marĩa mothe Jehova aamwarĩirie, nake Baruku akamandĩka ibuku-inĩ rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo.
Then Ieremiah called Baruch the sonne of Neriah, and Baruch wrote at the mouth of Ieremiah all the wordes of the Lord, which hee had spoken vnto him, vpon a roule or booke.
5 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jeremia akĩĩra Baruku atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩmuohe; ndingĩhota gũthiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
And Ieremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut vp, and can not go into the House of the Lord.
6 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio thiĩ arĩ we kũu nyũmba-inĩ ya Jehova mũthenya ũmwe ũrĩa kwĩhingagwo kũrĩa irio, nawe ũthomere andũ acio kuuma ibuku-inĩ rĩĩrĩ rĩa gĩkũnjo maũndũ marĩa maarĩtio nĩ Jehova, macio wee wandĩkire o ta ũrĩa niĩ ndaakwĩraga wandĩke.
Therefore goe thou, and reade the roule wherein thou hast written at my mouth the words of the Lord in the audience of the people in the Lordes House vpon the fasting day: also thou shalt reade them in the hearing of all Iudah, that come out of their cities.
7 Hihi maahota kũrehe mathaithana mao harĩ Jehova, na o mũndũ wao atigane na mĩthiĩre yake ya waganu, nĩ ũndũ marakara na mangʼũrĩ marĩa matuĩrĩirwo andũ aya nĩ Jehova nĩ manene.”
It may be that they will pray before the Lord, and euery one returne from his euill way, for great is the anger and the wrath, that the Lord hath declared against this people.
8 Nake Baruku mũrũ wa Neria nĩekire ũrĩa wothe Jeremia ũrĩa mũnabii aamwĩrĩte eeke; agĩthoma ndũmĩrĩri ĩyo ya Jehova kũu thĩinĩ wa hekarũ kuuma ibuku-inĩ rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo.
So Baruch the sonne of Neriah did according vnto all, that Ieremiah the Prophet commanded him, reading in the booke the wordes of the Lord in the Lords House.
9 Na rĩrĩ, mweri-inĩ wa kenda wa mwaka wa ĩtano wa wathani wa Jehoiakimu mũrũ wa Josia mũthamaki wa Juda, ihinda rĩa kwĩhinga kũrĩa irio mbere ya Jehova nĩrĩanĩrĩirwo kũrĩ andũ othe a Jerusalemu, o na arĩa angĩ othe mookĩte kuuma matũũra ma Juda.
And in the fift yeere of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah, in the ninth moneth, they proclaimed a fast before the Lord to all the people in Ierusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Iudah vnto Ierusalem.
10 Kuuma kanyũmba-inĩ ka Gemaria mũrũ wa Shafani ũrĩa mwandĩki, karĩa kaarĩ o kũu nja ya na igũrũ, itoonyero-inĩ rĩa Kĩhingo kĩrĩa Kĩerũ kĩa hekarũ, Baruku agĩthomera andũ othe ciugo cia Jeremia kuuma ibuku-inĩ rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo kũu hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
Then read Baruch in the booke the wordes of Ieremiah in the house of the Lord, in the chamber of Gemariah the sonne of Shaphan the secretarie, in the hier court at the entrie of the new gate of the Lordes house, in the hearing of all the people.
11 Rĩrĩa Mikaia mũrũ wa Gemaria, mũrũ wa Shafani aiguire ndũmĩrĩri ĩyo ya Jehova yothe kuuma ibuku-inĩ rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo-rĩ,
When Michaiah the sonne of Gemariah, the sonne of Shaphan had heard out of the booke all the wordes of the Lord,
12 agĩikũrũka agĩtoonya kanyũmba-inĩ ka mwandĩki karĩa kaarĩ kũu nyũmba-inĩ ya ũthamaki, harĩa anene othe maikarĩte, nao nĩo: Elishama ũrĩa mwandĩki, na Delia mũrũ wa Shemaia, na Elinathani mũrũ wa Akibori, na Gemaria mũrũ wa Shafani, na Zedekia mũrũ wa Hanania, na anene arĩa angĩ othe.
Then hee went downe to the Kings house into the Chancellours chamber, and loe, all the princes sate there, euen Elishama the Chancellour, and Delaiah the sonne of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the sonne of Achbor, and Gemariah the sonne of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the sonne of Hananiah, and all the princes.
13 Mikaia aarĩkia kũmahe ũhoro wothe ũrĩa aiguĩte Baruku agĩthomera andũ kuuma ibuku-inĩ rĩa gĩkũnjo-rĩ,
Then Michaiah declared vnto them all the wordes that he had heard when Baruch read in the booke in the audience of the people.
14 anene acio othe magĩtũma Jehudi mũrũ wa Nethania, mũrũ wa Shelemia, mũrũ wa Kushi, athiĩ akeere Baruku atĩrĩ, “Oya ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo, rĩu ũthomeire andũ, ũũke narĩo.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Baruku mũrũ wa Neria agĩthiĩ hau maarĩ anyiitĩte ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo na guoko gwake.
Therefore all the princes sent Iehudi the sonne of Nethaniah, the sonne of Shelemiah, the sonne of Chushi, vnto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hande the roule, wherein thou hast read in the audience of the people, and come. So Baruch the sonne of Neriah, tooke the roule in his hand, and came vnto them.
15 Nao makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Rĩu ta ikara thĩ, ũtũthomere.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Baruku akĩmathomera.
And they saide vnto him, Sit downe now, and reade it, that we may heare. So Baruch read it in their audience.
16 Rĩrĩa maaiguire mohoro macio mothe, makĩrorana marĩ na guoya, makĩĩra Baruku atĩrĩ, “No nginya tũkinyĩrie mũthamaki ũhoro ũcio wothe.”
Now when they had heard all the wordes, they were afraid both one and other, and said vnto Baruch, We will certifie the King of all these wordes.
17 Ningĩ magĩcooka makĩũria Baruku atĩrĩ, “Ta twĩre, maũndũ macio mothe wamandĩkire atĩa? Nĩ Jeremia wakwĩraga nawe ũkamaandĩka?”
And they examined Baruch, saying, Tell vs nowe, howe diddest thou write all these wordes at his mouth?
18 Baruku akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩwe wanjĩĩraga mohoro macio mothe, na niĩ ngamaandĩka na rangi ibuku-inĩ rĩĩrĩ rĩa gĩkũnjo.”
Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these wordes vnto me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ynke in the booke.
19 Nao anene acio makĩĩra Baruku atĩrĩ, “Wee na Jeremia thiĩi mwĩhithe. Mũtikareke mũndũ o na ũ amenye kũrĩa mũrĩ.”
Then saide the princes vnto Baruch, Goe, hide thee, thou and Ieremiah, and let no man knowe where ye be.
20 Maarĩkia kũiga ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo kanyũmba-inĩ ka Elishama, ũrĩa mwandĩki, magĩtoonya harĩa mũthamaki aarĩ kũu nyũmba yake ya thĩinĩ makĩmũhe ũhoro ũcio wothe.
And they went in to the King to the court, but they layde vp the roule in the chamber of Elishama the Chancellour and tolde the King all the wordes, that he might heare.
21 Mũthamaki nake agĩtũma Jehudi agĩĩre ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo, nake Jehudi akĩrĩrehe kuuma kanyũmba-inĩ ka Elishama, ũrĩa mwandĩki, akĩrĩthomera mũthamaki na anene acio othe marũgamĩte hau harĩ mũthamaki.
So the King sent Iehudi to fet the roule, and he tooke it out of Elishama the Chancellours chamber, and Iehudi read it in the audience of the King, and in the audience of all the princes, which stoode beside the King.
22 Kwarĩ mweri wa kenda, nake mũthamaki aikarĩte nyũmba-inĩ ĩrĩa aikaraga hĩndĩ ya kĩmera kĩa heho, na haarĩ na mwaki waakanaga riiko-inĩ hau mbere yake.
Nowe the King sate in the winter House, in the ninth moneth, and there was a fire burning before him.
23 Jehudi aathoma icigo ithatũ kana inya cia ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo-rĩ, mũthamaki nake agacitinia na kahiũ ka mwandĩki, agacikia riiko-inĩ, o nginya rĩrĩa ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo rĩacinirwo rĩothe.
And when Iehudi had read three, or foure sides, hee cut it with the penknife and cast it into the fire, that was on the hearth vntil all the roule was consumed in the fire, that was on the hearth.
24 Mũthamaki na andũ arĩa othe maamũtungataga arĩa maiguire mohoro macio matiigana gwĩtigĩra, o na kana magĩtembũranga nguo ciao.
Yet they were not afraide, nor rent their garmets, neither the King, nor any of his seruants, that heard all these wordes.
25 O na gũtuĩka Elinathani, na Delia, na Gemaria nĩmathaithire mũthamaki ndagacine ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo-rĩ, nĩaregire kũmathikĩrĩria.
Neuerthelesse, Elnathan, and Delaiah, and Gemariah had besought the King, that he would not burne ye roule: but he would not heare them.
26 Handũ ha ũguo, mũthamaki agĩatha Jerameeli, mũrũ ũmwe wa mũthamaki, na Seraia mũrũ wa Azirieli, na Shelemia mũrũ wa Abideli, nĩguo manyiite Baruku ũcio mwandĩki, na Jeremia ũrĩa mũnabii. No rĩrĩ, Jehova nĩamahithĩte.
But the King commanded Ierahmeel the sonne of Hammelech, and Seraiah the sonne of Azriel, and Shelemiah the sonne of Abdiel, to take Baruch the scribe, and Ieremiah the Prophet, but the Lord hid them.
27 Thuutha wa mũthamaki gũcina ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo rĩrĩa rĩandĩkĩtwo mohoro nĩ Baruku ta ũrĩa eerĩtwo nĩ Jeremia andĩke-rĩ, ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova nĩyakinyĩrĩire Jeremia, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
Then the word of the Lord came to Ieremiah (after that the King had burnt the roule and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Ieremiah) saying,
28 “Oya ibuku rĩngĩ rĩa gĩkũnjo wandĩke thĩinĩ warĩo mohoro marĩa mothe maarĩ ibuku-nĩ rĩu rĩa mbere, rĩu Jehoiakimu mũthamaki wa Juda aacinire.
Take thee againe another roule and write in it all ye former words that were in the first roule which Iehoiakim the King of Iudah hath burnt,
29 Ningĩ wĩre Jehoiakimu mũthamaki wa Juda atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Nĩwacinire ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo, ũkĩũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte wandĩke atĩ, ti-itherũ mũthamaki wa Babuloni nĩagooka kwananga bũrũri ũyũ na eherie andũ na nyamũ kuo?”
And thou shalt say to Iehoiakim King of Iudah, Thus saith the Lord, Thou hast burnt this roule, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, that the King of Babel shall certainly come and destroye this land, and shall take thence both man and beast?
30 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ ũndũ ũkoniĩ Jehoiakimu mũthamaki wa Juda: Ndakagĩa na mũndũ wa gũikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa Daudi; kĩimba gĩake gĩgaateeo, na kĩanĩkĩrwo riũa mũthenya, na kĩhĩe nĩ mbaa ũtukũ.
Therefore thus saith the Lord of Iehoiakim King of Iudah, Hee shall haue none to sit vpon the throne of Dauid, and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heate, and in the night to the frost.
31 Nĩngamũherithia we hamwe na ciana ciake, na arĩa mamũtungataga, nĩ ũndũ wa waganu wao; nĩngarehithĩria arĩa othe matũũraga Jerusalemu na andũ a Juda mwanangĩko ũrĩa wothe ndaaririe ũhoro waguo ũmakoniĩ, tondũ nĩmagĩte gũthikĩrĩria.’”
And I will visite him and his seede, and his seruants for their iniquitie, and I will bring vpon them, and vpon the inhabitants of Ierusalem, and vpon the men of Iudah all the euil that I haue pronounced against them: but they would not heare.
32 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jeremia akĩoya ibuku rĩngĩ rĩa gĩkũnjo, akĩrĩnengera Baruku mũrũ wa Neria ũcio mwandĩki, nake akĩandĩka ibuku-inĩ rĩu mohoro mothe marĩa aacookire kũheo nĩ Jeremia, o macio maandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩrĩa Jehoiakimu mũthamaki wa Juda aacinĩte na mwaki; na hakĩongererwo mohoro mangĩ maingĩ maahaanaine na macio ma mbere.
Then tooke Ieremiah another roule, and gaue it Baruch the scribe the sonne of Neriah, which wrote therein at the mouth of Ieremiah all the wordes of the booke which Iehoiakim King of Iudah had burnt in the fire, and there were added besides them many like wordes.
