Zeremaia 39
1 Hagi Juda kini ne' Zedekaia'ma kinima mani'negeno 9nima hia kafumofona 10ni ikante, Babiloni kini ne' Nebukatnesa'ene maka sondia vahe'amo'zane e'za, Jerusalemi kumara eme avazagi kagine'za Jerusalemi vahera hara huzmante'naku hu'naze.
After King Zedekiah had been ruling Judah for almost nine years, King Nebuchadnezzar came in January with his army, and they surrounded Jerusalem.
2 Hagi Zedekaia'ma kinima mani'negeno 11nima hia kafufina 4 ikamofona 9ni zupa kuma keginafinti anafe hu'za Jerusalemi kumapina ufre'naze.
One and a half years later, after Zedekiah had been ruling for almost eleven years, on July 18, [soldiers from Babylonia] broke through the city [wall. Then they rushed in and captured the city].
3 Hagi anante maka Babiloni kini ne'mofo eri'za vahe'mo'za rankumapi ufre'za, kuma keginamofona Amu'no Kafanema nehaza kafante emani'naze. Ana vahe zamagi'a, Negal-Sareseliki Samgal-Neboki Sarsekimiki Rabsarisiki kini ne'ma antahintahima nemia ne' Negal-Sareseli'ene ruga'a Babiloni kini ne'mofo eri'za vahemo'zanena ananteke emani'naze.
Then all the officers of the king of Babylon came in and sat down at the Middle Gate [to decide what they would do to the city. They included] Nergal-Sharezer from Samgar, Nebo-Sarsekim who was one of the chief army officers, another Nergal-Sharezer, the king’s advisor, and many other officials.
4 Hagi Juda kini ne' Zedekaia'ene maka sondia vahe'mo'za ana vahe'ma nezamage'za, zamagra kenage atre'za koro fre'za, kini ne'mofo hozama me'nea kantegama nevaza kantega vu'za, tare keginamofo amu'nompima me'nea kafanteti atirami'za fegi vu'naze. Ana'ma hute'za fre'za Araba kaziga Jodani agupoma me'nerega vu'naze.
When King Zedekiah and all his soldiers realized that [the army of Babylonia had broken into the city], they fled. [They waited until] it was dark. Then they went out of the city through the king’s garden, through the gate that was between the two walls. Then they started [running] toward the Jordan River Valley.
5 Hianagi Babiloni sondia vahe'mo'za zamarotago hu'za vu'za, Zedekaiana Jeriko agupofi ome azeri'naze. Ana hute'za Zedekaiana avre'za Hamati mopafina Ribla kumate Babiloni kini ne' Nebukatnesa'ma mani'nere mareri'naze. Ana hazageno e'inahu knaza erigahie huno anante huama hu'ne.
But the soldiers from Babylonia pursued the king, and they caught him on the plains near Jericho. They took him to the King of Babylon, who was at Riblah [town] in the Hamath [region]. There the king of Babylon told [his soldiers what] they should do to punish Zedekiah.
6 Hagi ana Ribla kumate, Babiloni kini ne'mo'a Zedekaia ne' mofavre nagara, Zedekaia'a negegeno zamahe fri'ne. Ana nehuno Juda mopafi kva vahe'enena maka zamahe fri'ne.
They forced Zedekiah to watch while they killed his sons and all the officials from Judah.
7 Hagi ana'ma huteno'a Zedekaiana tarega avua reragati netreno Babiloni avreno vunaku bronsire seni nofiteti kina hunte'ne.
[Then] they gouged out Zedekiah’s eyes. They fastened him with bronze chains and took him to Babylon.
8 Hagi Babiloni vahe'mo'za kini ne'mofo none, vahe'mokizmi nonena teve tagintageno nerege'za, Jerusalemi kuma'mofo keginaramina rutapage tapagu hutre'naze.
[Meanwhile, ] the Babylonian army burned the palace and all the other buildings in Jerusalem. And they tore down the city walls.
9 Hagi Babiloni sondia vahete'ma ugotama hu'nea ne' Nebusaradani'a Jerusalemi rankumapima mago'ama mani'naza vahera kina ome huzmante'naku Babiloni zamavareno vu'ne. Ana nehuno ruga'a vahe'ene, ko'ma koro'ma fre'za agranema emani'naza vahe'enena zamavareno magoka vu'ne.
Then Nebuzaradan, the captain of the [king’s] bodyguards, forced to go to Babylon [most of] the other people who remained in the city and the Jews who had joined the soldiers of Babylonia.
10 Hianagi ana sondia vahete kva ne' Nebusaradani'a zamunte omane vahe'ma mago'a zazimima omane'nea vahera Juda mopafi zamatreno nevuno, waini hozane hozama ante mopanena nezamino vu'ne.
But he allowed some of the very poor people to remain in Judah, and he gave them vineyards and fields [to take care of].
11 Hagi Babiloni kini ne' Nebukatnesa'a, Jeremaia kazigagura amanage huno sondia vahete kva ne' Nebusaradanina hunte'ne.
King Nebuchadnezzar had [previously] told Nebuzaradan to find me. He said,
12 Kagra vunka Jeremaiana ome avrenka kegavahu so'e nehunka mago hazenkea omio. Ana nehunka nazano huoma huno kasaminia zana amage antenka anazana huo.
“Make sure that no one harms him. Take care of him, and do for him whatever he requests you to do.”
13 Hagi anage nehuno sondia vahete ugota kva ne' Nebusaradaninki, kini ne'mofo eri'za vahete kva ne' Nabusasbaninki kini ne'ma antahintahima nemia ne' Negal-Sareseline mago'a kva vahe'enena huzmantege'za vu'za,
So he and Nebushazban, who was one of their chief officers, and Nergal-Sharezer the king’s advisor, and other officers of the King of Babylon
14 mago'a vahe ome huzmantage'za Jeremaia'ma sondia vahe kumapima kinama huno mani'nefinti ome avre'za e'naze. Ana hazage'za Jeremaiana avre'za Safani negeho ne' Ahikamu nemofo Gedalia azampi antazageno avreno noma'arega vu'ne. Ana higeno Jeremaia'a agra'a vahe'ene magoka mani'ne.
sent [some men] to bring me out of the courtyard outside of the palace. They took me to Gedaliah who was the son of Ahikam and grandson of Shaphan. Then Gedaliah took me to my home, and I stayed [in Judah] among [my own] people [who had been allowed to remain there].
15 Hagi sondia vahe'ma nemaniza kumapima ko'ma Jeremaia'ma kinama huno mani'negeno'a Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno asami'ne.
While I was [still] being guarded in the palace courtyard, Yahweh gave me this message:
16 Itiopia kumate ne' Ebetmelekina amanage hunka ome asamio. Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe'mofo Anumzamo'a huno, Ama kuma'ma eri haviza hugahuema hu'na hu'noa kante amage ante'na ame hu'na eri haviza hugahue. Ana nehu'na azeri knarera osugahue. Ana hanigenka ana zupa kagra kavufinti kegahane.
“Say this to Ebed-Melech, the official from Ethiopia: ‘This is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom [we] Israelis [worship], says: “I will do to this city everything that I said that I would do. I will not enable the people to prosper; I will cause them to experience disasters. You will see Jerusalem being destroyed,
17 Hianagi Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na huanki'na, ana zupa kagu'vazi'na kavretregahue. Ana hanuge'za kagrama zamagoro'ma nehana vahe zamazampina kavreontegahaze.
but I will rescue you from the people whom you are afraid of.
18 Na'ankure kagra Nagrite'ma kamentintima nehana mizama'a kva hugantesuge'za hapintira kahe ofrigahaze, huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
You trusted me, so I will save you. You will not be killed by [your enemies’] swords; you will remain alive. [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.’”
