Zeremaia 47
1 Hagi Fero'a Gaza kumara hara eme huonte'negeno, Filistia vahete'ma fore hania zankura Ra Anumzamo'a kasnampa ne' Jeremaiana amanage huno asami'ne.
Yahweh gave to the prophet Jeremiah a message about the people of Philistia. [The message was given to me] before Gaza [city in Philistia] was captured by [the army of] Egypt.
2 Ra Anumzamo'a huno, antahiho, noti kazigatira mago ranti hageno ne-eankino mopa eme refi'neteno, maka'zanena refitegahie. Ana nehuno rankuma'ene ana kumapima nemaniza vahe'enena zamahe refi'netesige'za, vahe'mo'za tusiza hu'za kezatigahaze. Ana nehanage'za ana mopafima nemaniza vahe'mo'za tusi zavi krafa hugahaze.
This is what Yahweh said: “[An army] [MET] will be coming from the northeast that will cover the land like a flood. They will destroy the land and everything in it; [they will destroy] people and cities. People will scream; everyone in the land will wail.
3 Hagi hosi afutamimo'za zamagare'za ne-esageno, zamagiafintira vagri vagri nehina, karisiramima ne-esigeno agafinti'ma agasasama rania zama vene'nemo'zama antahisu'za, mofavre naga'zamia rukrahera hu'za ozamage fregahaze. Na'ankure zamazamo'a stino zuzufrinige'za anara hugahaze.
[They will hear] the sound of the hooves of the [enemy] horses, and [they will hear] the rumble/noise of the wheels [of their enemies’] chariots. Men [will run away; ] they will not stop to help their children; they will be completely weak and helpless [MTY].
4 Hagi Filistia vahe'ma knazamo'ma eme zamazeri havizama hania knamo'a hago meni efore hu'ne. Ana hu'neanki'za Tairi vahe'ene Saidoni vahera zamaza osugahaze. Na'ankure hageri amu'nompima Kriti kumateti'ma Filistia vahe'ma osi'ama emani'naza vahera, Ra Anumzamo'a knaza zamino zamazeri haviza nehie.
It will be the time for all the people of Philistia to be destroyed, and the time to prevent the remaining soldiers from helping [the people of] Tyre and Sidon [cities]. [I, ] Yahweh, will get rid of the people of Philistia, those whose ancestors [long ago] came from Crete [island].
5 Gaza kumapi vahe'mo'za zamasunku nehu'za zamaseni zamazoka nehare'nageno, Askeloni kumapintira mago zamofo agasasa omanetfa hugahie. Hagi agupo kokampima osi'ama maniza vahe'mota, tamavufgama taga nehazageno korama nehia zana ina zupa atregahaze?
[The people of] Gaza will be humiliated; they will shave off all the hair on their heads [to indicate that they are ashamed]. The [people of] [city] will all be silent [because they will be mourning]. [All you people who live] along the coast [of the Mediterranean Sea] who are still alive, how long [RHQ] will you gash yourselves [because you are mourning]?”
6 Hagi Ra Anumzamofo bainati kazimoka vahe'ma zamazeri havizama nehana zana nazupa atrenka amnea manigahane huta tamagra kezatiho. Kagra bainati kazimoka kuka'afi ufrenka, akohenka umanio.
[The people of Philistia say, ] “Yahweh, when [RHQ] will you [tell our enemies to stop killing us with] [PRS] their swords? Tell them to [PRS] put them back into their sheaths and keep them there!”
7 Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'ma bainati kazimofoma hunteno, Askeloni rankuma'ene hagerimofo ankenaregama nemaniza vahe'enema ha' ome huzamanto huno huntesigeno eno, eri'zama eme e'nerisuno'a, inankna huno mani frua hugahie?
But it would not be right [RHQ] for their swords to stay there, because Yahweh has commanded their enemies [to do something more]; Yahweh intends to tell them to attack [all the people living in] Ashkelon and [in other cities] along the coast.
