Jeremias 40
1 Daytoy ti sao nga immay kenni Jeremias manipud kenni Yahweh kalpasan a pinalubosan isuna ni Nebuzaradan, a kapitan dagiti agbanbantay iti ari a mapan idiay Rama. Dayta ti lugar a nakaiyapanan ni Jeremias, ken ti lugar a nangrimpunganda kenkuana babaen kadigiti kawar. Kaduana dagiti amin a natiliw idiay Jerusalem ken Juda a maipan kas balud idiay Babilonia.
The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, after that Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had let him go from Ramah, when he had taken him being bound in chains among all the captives of Jerusalem and Judah, who were carried away captive to Babylon.
2 Innala ti pangulo dagiti agbanbantay ni Jeremias ket kinunana kenkuana, “Inkeddeng ni Yahweh a Diosmo daytoy a didigra a maibusor iti daytoy a lugar.
The captain of the guard took Jeremiah, and said to him, "The LORD your God pronounced this evil on this place;
3 Isu nga inyeg ni Yahweh daytoy. Inaramidna no ania iti inkeddengna, agsipud ta nagbasolkayo a tattao kenkuana ken saankayo a nagtulnog iti timekna. Dayta ti makagapu a napasamak daytoy a banag kadakayo a tattao.
and the LORD has brought it, and done according as he spoke: because you have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed his voice, therefore this thing has come on you.
4 Ngem ita kitaem! Winayawayaanka itan manipud kadagiti kawar nga adda kadagiti imam. No iti panagkitam ket nasayaat a kumuyogka kaniak a mapan idiay Babilonia, umayka, ket aywananka. Ngem no iti panagkitam ket saan a nasayaat a kumuyogka kaniak idiay Babilonia, saanmo ngarud nga aramiden. Kumitaka iti entero a daga iti sangoanam. Mapanka iti sadinoman a kayatmo a papanan.”
Now, look, I release you this day from the chains which are on your hand. If it seems good to you to come with me into Babylon, come, and I will take care of you; but if it seems bad to you to come with me into Babylon, do not: look, all the land is before you; where it seems good and right to you to go, there go."
5 Idi saan a simmungbat ni Jeremias, kinuna ni Nebuzaradan, “Mapanka kenni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam a putot ni Safan, a dinutokan ti ari ti Babilonia a mangimaton kadagiti siudad ti Juda. Makipagnaedka kenkuana a kaduam dagiti tattao wenno mapanka iti sadinoman a kayatmo a papanan.” Inikkan isuna ti pangulo dagiti agbanbantay iti ari iti taraon ken sagut, ket pinalubosanna isuna a pumanaw.
Now while he had not yet gone back, "Go back then," he said, "to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people; or go wherever it seems right to you to go." So the captain of the guard gave him food and a present, and let him go.
6 Napan ngarud ni Jeremias kenni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam, idiay Mizpa. Nakipagnaed isuna kenkuana a kaduana dagiti tattao a nabati iti daga.
Then went Jeremiah to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah, and lived with him among the people who were left in the land.
7 Ita, dagiti dadduma a mangidadaulo kadagiti suldado a Judio nga adda pay laeng idiay away-isuda ken dagiti tattaoda - ket nadamagda a dinutokan ti ari ti Babilonia ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam, nga agbalin a gobernador iti entero a daga. Nadamagda pay a dinutokan ni Nebucadnesar ni Gedalias a mangimaton kadagiti lallaki, babbai, ken ubbing, a kakukurapayan a tattao iti daga, dagidiay saan a naipan a kas balud idiay Babilonia.
Now when all the captains of the forces who were in the fields, even they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam governor in the land, and had committed to him men, and women, and children, and of the poorest of the land, of those who were not carried away captive to Babylon;
8 Napanda ngarud kenni Gedalias idiay Mizpa. Dagitoy a lallaki ket ni Ismael a putot ni Netanias; ni Johanan ken ni Jonatan, a putot ni Karea; ni Seraias a putot ni Tanhumet; dagiti lallaki a putot ni Efai a taga-Netofa; ken ni Jezanias a taga-Maaca-ken dagiti soldadoda.
then they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan and Jonathan the sons of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and Jezaniah the son of the Maacathite, they and their men.
9 Nagsapata ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam a putot ni Safan kadakuada ken kadagiti tattaoda, ket kinunana kadakuada, “Saankayo nga agbuteng nga agserbi kadagiti opisial a Caldeo. Agnaedkayo iti daga ket agserbikayo iti ari ti Babilonia ket awanto ti pakaan-anoanyo.
Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan swore to them and to their men, saying, "Do not be afraid to serve the Chaldeans: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.
10 Ket kitaenyo, agnanaedak idiay Mizpa tapno makisinnarak kadagiti Caldeo nga immay kadatayo. Isu nga agurnongkayo iti arak, bungbunga a maapit iti tiempo ti kalgaw, ken lana ket idulinyo kadagiti pagkargaanyo. Agnaedkayo kadagiti siudad a sinakupyo.”
As for me, look, I will dwell at Mizpah, to stand before the Chaldeans who shall come to us: but you, gather wine and summer fruits and oil, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities that you have taken."
11 Ket nadamag dagiti amin a Judio idiay Moab, Ammon, ken Edom, ken iti tunggal daga a pinalubosan iti ari ti Babilonia nga agtalinaed dagiti nabatbati a tattao iti Juda, ket dinutokanna ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam a putot ni Safan a mangituray kadakuada.
Likewise when all the Jews who were in Moab, and among the people of Ammon, and in Edom, and who were in all the countries, heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant of Judah, and that he had set over them Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan;
12 Isu a nagsubli dagiti Judio manipud kadagiti lugar a nakaiwarawaraanda. Nagsublida iti daga ti Juda, kenni Gedalias idiay Mizpa. Nangurnongda iti nakaad-adu nga arak ken bungbunga iti tiempo ti kalgaw.
then all the Jews returned out of all places where they were driven, and came to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah, to Mizpah, and gathered wine and summer fruits very much.
13 Ni Johanan a putot ni Karea ken dagiti amin a mangidadaulo kadagiti armada idiay away ket napan kenni Gedalias idiay Mizpa.
Moreover Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were in the fields, came to Gedaliah to Mizpah,
14 Kinunada kenkuana, “Ammom kadi nga imbaon ni Baalis nga ari dagiti tattao ti Ammon ni Ismael a putot ni Nethanias tapno papatayennaka?” Ngem saan a namati ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikim kadakuada.
and said to him, "Do you know that Baalis the king of the people of Ammon has sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to take your life?" But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam did not believe them.
15 Isu a ni Johanan a putot ni Karea, kinatungtongna iti nalimed ni Gedalias idiay Mizpa ket kinunana, “Palubosannak a mapan mangpapatay kenni Ismael a putot ni Netanias. Awanto ti mangpanunot a siak ti nangpapatay kenkuana. Apay koma a papatayennaka? Apay a palubosam a mawarawara ti entero a Juda a naguummong kenka ken mapukaw dagiti nabatbati a tattao ti Juda?”
Then Johanan the son of Kareah spoke to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, "Please let me go, and I will kill Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man shall know it: why should he take your life, that all the Jews who are gathered to you should be scattered, and the remnant of Judah perish?"
16 Ngem kinuna ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam kenni Johanan a putot ni Karea, “Saamo nga aramiden daytoy a banag, ta agul-ulbodka maipapan kenni Ismael.”
But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam said to Johanan the son of Kareah, "You shall not do this thing; for you speak falsely of Ishmael."
