Zeremaia 38

1 Hagi Matani nemofo Sifatiaki, Pasuri nemofo Gadaliaki, Selemaia nemofo Jukaliki, Malkia nemofo Pasuriki hu'za mani'ne'za nentahizageno Jeremaia'a maka vahera amanage huno zamasami'ne,

Then Shephatiah, the son of Mattan, and Gedaliah, the son of Pashhur, and Jehucal, the son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur, the son of Malchiah, heard the words that Jeremiah was speaking to all the people, saying:

2 Ra Anumzamo'a huno, iza'o ama rankuma'mofo agu'afima manisia vahera hapinti ahe frige, ne'zanku huno frige, krimo ahe frige hugahie. Hianagi iza'o Kaldia vahe zamazampima freno vania vahe'mo'a ofri manigahie. Anama ofri manisaza vahera hapinti fenozama rohure'za erizankna hu'za, ozamahe zamatresage'za manigahaze.

“Thus says the Lord: Whoever will remain in this city will die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence. But whoever will flee away from the Chaldeans, will live, and his soul will dwell in safety.

3 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Ama Jerusalemi rankumara Babiloni kini ne'mofo sondia vahe zamazampi erintesuge'za hahugatere'za erigahaze hu'ne.

Thus says the Lord: This city will certainly be delivered into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, and he will capture it.”

4 Hagi Jeremaia'a anagema hige'za anante kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'mo'za kini nera asami'za, ama nera ahe frigahune. Na'ankure amanahu nanekema nehia zamo'a, ama rankumapima nemaniza sondia vahe'ene maka vahemo'zanema koro'ma hanaza naneke nehie. Na'ankure agra ama vahe'mokizmi knare zankura keaga nosianki, hazenkema erisaza nanekege nehie.

And the leaders said to the king: “We petition you to put this man to death. For he is deliberately weakening the hands of the men of war, who have remained in this city, and the hands of the people, by speaking to them with these words. For this man is certainly not seeking peace for this people, but evil.”

5 Hagi anante kini ne' Zedekaia'a huno, antahiho! Agra menina tamagri tamazampi mani'neanki'na, nagra kini ne'mo'na mago zana osugahue.

And king Zedekiah said: “Behold, he is in your hands. For it is not fitting for the king to deny you anything.”

6 Hagi anagema hige'za Jeremaiana avre'za kini ne'mofo nemofo Malkiza tinkerifi ome atrageno urami'ne. Anama ome atre'naza tinkerimo'a sondia vahe'ma nemaniza kumapi me'ne. Ana hu'negeno ana kerifina tina omanegeno hapamoke me'nefi Jeremaiana nofi rentene'za atrazageno anampi uramino hampakane'ne.

Therefore, they took Jeremiah and cast him into the pit of Malchiah, the son of Amelech, which was at the entrance to the prison. And they lowered Jeremiah by ropes into the pit, in which there was no water, but only mud. And so Jeremiah descended into the mire.

7 Hagi mago nera Ebet-Melekikino kini ne'mofo nompi eri'za e'neria nere. Agra Itiopia mopafinti nekino, kini ne'mofo nompi mani'neno, Jeremaiama avre'za tinkerifima ome atre'naza nanekea antahi'ne. Hagi ana zupa kini ne'mo'a rankumamofona Benzameni kafanema nehaza rankafante mani'ne.

Now Ebedmelech, an Ethiopian man, a eunuch who was in the king’s house, heard that they had sent Jeremiah into the pit, and also that the king was sitting at the gate of Benjamin.

8 Hagi Ebet-Meleki'a kini ne'mofo nompima mani'neretira atreno vuno, kini nera amanage huno ome asami'ne.

And so Ebedmelech departed from the king’s house, and he spoke to the king, saying:

9 Kini nera ranimoka, ama vahe'mo'za havi avu'avaza hu'za, kasnampa ne' Jeremaiana avre'za vu'za tinkerifina ome atre'nazankino, anampi manineno agazanku huno frigahie. Na'ankure magore huno rankumapina ne'zana omanetfa hu'ne.

“My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have perpetrated against Jeremiah the prophet, casting him into the pit so that he would die there from famine. For there is no more bread in the city.”

10 Anagema higeno'a kini ne'mo'a Ebet-Melekina amanage huno huntene, Ru frisnigi vunka 30'a vahe ome zamavarenka ana kerifintira kasnampa ne' Jeremaiana ome avre atreho.

And so the king instructed Ebedmelech, the Ethiopian, saying: “Take with you thirty men from here, and lift Jeremiah the prophet from the pit, before he dies.”

11 Anage higeno'a Ebet-Meleki'a ana vahera ome zamavarege'za kini ne'mofo nompi vu'za, feno zama nentaza nomofo fenka kazigama me'nea nompima, tagato tagatu'ma hu'nea kukenane atafa kukenama nentazafinti ana kukena ome eriteno vuno nofi ome anakiteno atregeno Jeremaia'ma kerifima mani'nere urami'ne.

Therefore, Ebedmelech, taking the men with him, entered into the king’s house to a place below the storehouse. And he took from there old garments, no longer in use, and he sent them down by rope to Jeremiah in the pit.

12 Hagi ana Itiopia ne' Ebet-Meleki''a Jeremaiana amanage huno asami'ne, Ana tavarave nofi erinka tarega kazo'namofo fenka kaziga atregeno rugagino, ana hutenka nofimo'ma katama kami'zankura nofira erinka kavuga ana tavravemofo amu'nompi anakio. Higeno anama asamia zana amage anteno Jeremaia'a hu'ne.

And Ebedmelech, the Ethiopian, said to Jeremiah: “Place these old garments, and these cut and decaying cloths, under your arms and over the ropes.” And Jeremiah did so.

13 Ana hute'za ana nofite Jeremaiana ana kerifintira avazuhu anagate'naze. Ana hutazageno kini ne'mofo kumapima sondia vahe'ma nemanizafi mani'ne.

And they pulled up Jeremiah with the ropes, and they led him away from the pit. And Jeremiah remained in the vestibule of the prison.

14 Hagi mago zupa kini ne' Zedekaia'a vahe huzmantege'za vu'za Jeremaiana ome asamizageno Ra Anumzamofo mono nomofona nampa 3 kafama unefrazare mani'negeno eme ke'ne. Higeno kini nemo'a amanage huno Jeremaiana asami'ne. Nagra mago zanku kantahige'za nehuanki magore hunka nagritera eri frara okio.

And king Zedekiah sent and took Jeremiah the prophet to him at the third gate, which was at the house of the Lord. And the king said to Jeremiah: “I will question you about a matter. You shall conceal nothing from me.”

15 Anage higeno Jeremaia'a amanage huno Zedekaiana asami'ne. Nagrama kekare'ma nonama hu'na kasami'nuana nagrira tamagerfa hunka nahe frigahane. Hagi nagrama knare antahintahima kamisuana, ana nanekeni'a ontahigahane.

Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah: “If I announce to you, will you not put me to death? And if I give you counsel, you will not listen to me.”

16 Hianagi kini ne' Zedekaia'a oku'a zanagrake mani'neke Jeremaiana amanage huno huvempa hunte'ne. Ra Anumzana kasefa huno mani'nea Anumzama, tasimu'ma tamigeta mani'nona Anumzamofo avufi huvempa huanki'na kagrira kahe ofrigahue. Ana nehu'na kahe frinaku'ma nehaza vahe zamazampina kavre ontegahue.

Then king Zedekiah swore to Jeremiah, secretly, saying: “As the Lord lives, who made this soul for us, I will not kill you, nor will I deliver you into the hands of those men who are seeking your life.”

17 Anante Jeremaia'a amanage huno Zedekaiana asami'ne. Ra Anumzana Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamo'a huno, ha'ma osu kagrama atrenka Babiloni kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe zamazampima ufresunka, kagra knare hunka manigahane. Ana'ma hananke'za ama Jerusalemi rankumara tevea tagi ontegahaze. Ana hanagenka kagrane nagaka'anena knare huta manigahaze.

And Jeremiah said to Zedekiah: “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: If, having set out, you go to the rulers of the king of Babylon, your soul will live, and this city will not be burned with fire. And you and your house will be safe.

18 Hianagi kagrama atrenka Babiloni kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe zamazampima uofresanke'na, Nagra Kaldia vahe zamazampi ama Jerusalemi rankumara erintesuge'za teve tagintesageno tegahie. Ana hanigenka kagra ana vahe zamazampintira zamatrenka ofregahane.

But if you will not go to the rulers of the king of Babylon, this city will be delivered into the hands of the Chaldeans, and they will burn it with fire. And you will not escape from their hand.”

19 Hagi kini ne' Zedekaia'a amanage huno Jeremaiana asami'ne. Koma Juda vahe'mo'zama atre'za Babiloni vahe'enema umani'naza vaheku koro nehue. Nagri'ma navre'za Babilonima vu'za Juda vahe zamazampi ome antesage'za, nazeri havizama huzanku korora nehue.

And king Zedekiah said to Jeremiah: “I am anxious, because of the Jews who have crossed over to the Chaldeans, lest perhaps I may be delivered into their hands, and they may abuse me.”

20 Higeno Jeremaia'a ana kenona huno, Kagrira kavre'za Juda vahe zamazampina ome ontegahaze. Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma hige'nama kasamua nanekea antahinka amage'anto. Ana'ma hananke'za kagrira kahe ofrisagenka knare hunka manigahane.

But Jeremiah responded: “They will not deliver you. Listen, I ask you, to the voice of the Lord, which I am speaking to you, and it will be well with you, and your soul will live.

21 Hianagi kagrama kema ontahinka, kagraka'ama atrenka Babiloni vahe zamazampima uofresanana, Ra Anumzamo'a amanahu huno ava'nagna zana naveri hige'na ke'noe.

But if you refuse to depart, this is the word that the Lord has revealed to me:

22 Juda kini ne'mofo nompima mani'naza maka a'nane nagara, ana maka zamavare'za vu'za Babiloni kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe ome zami'naze. Ana hazage'za ana a'nemo'za hu'za, kagrama antahima nezamina ronekamo'za kagrira hara hugagatenere'za regavatga hazagenka zamagri nanekea antahi'nane. Ana hankeno kagiamo'ma hapapima hampakanege'za, kagrira rukrahera hu'za onkage'naze.

Behold, all the women who remain in the house of the king of Judah will be led away to the rulers of the king of Babylon. And the women will say: ‘Your men of peacefulness have led you astray, and they have prevailed against you. They have immersed your feet in mud and have set them in a slippery place. And they have withdrawn from you.’

23 Ana maka a'ne naga'kane mofavre nagakanena ana maka zamavare'za vu'za Kaldia vahe ome zamigahaze. Ana hanagenka kagra zamagri zamazampintira zamatrenka ofregahane. Hianagi kagrira Babiloni kini ne'mo'a kaze'nerinige'za ama rankumara teve tagintesageno tegahie.

And all your wives and your sons will be led away to the Chaldeans, and you will not escape from their hands. Instead, you will be seized by the hand of the king of Babylon. And he will burn this city with fire.”

24 Hagi anante Zedekaia'a amanage huno Jeremaiana asami'ne. Amama hana nanekea atregeno mago vahe'mo'a ontahino. Vahe'ma zamasamisanana kagra frigahane.

Then Zedekiah said to Jeremiah: “Let no one know of these words, and you will not die.

25 Hagi kagranema keagama hu'a nanekema nagri eri'za vahe'mo'zama antahisu'za, e'za kagri'ma eme kantahige'za, kagra na'ane hunka hankeno kini ne'mo'a na'ane hifi magore hunka ana nanekea eri frara okinka tasamio. Anama hananketa kagrira kahe ofrigahune hu'za hugahaze.

But if the leaders hear that I have spoken with you, and if they come to you, and say to you: ‘Tell us what you said to the king. Do not conceal it from us, and we will not put you to death. And tell us what the king said to you,’

26 E'inahu nanekema hanagenka kagra amanage hunka zamasamio. Nagrama kini ne'ene keagama huana, nagra Jonatani nompima umanine'na fri'zanku ete natrege'na ana nompina ova'neno hu'na antahige'noe hunka zamasamio.

then you shall say to them: ‘I presented my supplication before the king, so that he would not order me to be led back to the house of Jonathan, to die there.’”

27 Hagi anante maka kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'mo'za Jeremaiante e'za eme antahigageno, kini nemo'ma asami'nea kante anteno agra kenona huzmante'ne. Hige'za Jeremaia'enena mago'ene keaga osu'naze. Na'ankure kini nemo'enema keagama hu'na'a nanekea mago vahe'mo'a ontahitfa hu'negu anara hu'naze.

Then all the leaders came to Jeremiah, and they questioned him. And he spoke to them in accord with all the words that the king had commanded him. And they withdrew from him, for they had learned nothing.

28 Hagi Jeremaia'a sondia vahe'ma nemaniza kumapima kinama huno nemanifi anampinka mani'nege'za, ha' vahe'mo'za e'za Jerusalemi kumara hara eme hugatere'za eri'naze.

Yet truly, Jeremiah remained at the entrance of the prison, until the day when Jerusalem was seized. And it happened that Jerusalem was captured.
