1 Tokosra Zedekiah lun Judah el supwalma Pashhur wen natul Malchiah, ac mwet tol Zephaniah wen natul Maaseiah, nu yuruk. Elos use enenu se inge:
The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh when sent to him the king Zedekiah Pashhur [the] son of Malkijah and Zephaniah [the] son of Maaseiah the priest saying.
2 “Nunak munas, pre nu sin LEUM GOD kacsr, mweyen Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia ac mwet mweun lal elos kuhlusya siti uh. Sahp LEUM GOD El ac oru sie mwenmen lal ke sripasr, ac ukwalak Nebuchadnezzar liki kut.”
Seek please for us Yahweh for Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon [is] waging war on us perhaps he will do Yahweh with us according to all wonders his and he may go up from on us.
3 Na LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik, ac nga fahk nu sin mwet ma supweyuku nu yuruk
And he said Jeremiah to them thus you will say! to Zedekiah.
4 tuh elos in fahk nu sel Zedekiah lah LEUM GOD lun Israel El fahk, “Zedekiah, nga ac kutangla mwet lom su mweun lain tokosra lun Babylonia ac mwet lal. Nga fah elosak kufwen mwe mweun nutin mwet lom infulwen siti uh.
Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel here I [am] about to turn round [the] weapons of war which [are] in hand your which you [are] fighting by them with [the] king of Babylon and with the Chaldeans who are laying siege on you from [the] outside of the wall and I will gather them into [the] middle of the city this.
5 Nga fah sifacna mweun lain kom ke ku luk nufon, ac ke mulat ac kasrkusrak luk nufon.
And I will fight I with you by a hand outstretched and by an arm strong and in anger and in rage and in wrath great.
6 Nga fah onela ma nukewa su moul in siti se inge: kewana mwet ac ma orakrak ac fah misa ke sie mas upa.
And I will strike down [the] inhabitants of the city this and the humankind and the animal[s] by a pestilence great they will die.
7 A kom, ac mwet pwapa fulat lom, ac mwet su painmoulla ke mweun, sracl, ac mas — nga ac fah lela kowos nukewa in sruoh sel Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar ac mwet lokoalok lowos su lungse unikowosi. Nebachudnezzar el ac fah unikowosi nukewa. El ac tiana nunak munas ku pakomuta kutena suwos. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
And after thus [the] utterance of Yahweh I will give Zedekiah [the] king of Judah and servants his - and the people and those [who] remain in the city this from the pestilence - from the sword and from the famine in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and in [the] hand of enemies their and in [the] hand of [those who] seek life their and he will strike down them to [the] mouth of [the] sword not he will have mercy on them and not he will show pity and not he will have compassion.
8 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik nga in fahkang nu sin mwet uh, “Kowos in porongo! Nga, LEUM GOD, fah sot nu suwos in sulela inmasrlon inkanek nu ke moul ac inkanek nu ke misa.
And to the people this you will say thus he says Yahweh here I [am] putting before you [the] way of life and [the] way of death.
9 Kutena mwet su muta in siti uh ac fah misa ke mweun ku ke masrinsral ku ke mas. Tusruktu kutena mwet su illa liki siti uh, ac sifacna eisalosyang nu inpoun mwet Babylonia su kuhlusya siti uh, ac fah moul.
The [one who] remains in the city this he will die by the sword and by famine and by pestilence and the [one who] goes out and he will fall on the Chaldeans who are laying siege on you (and he will live *Q(K)*) and it will belong to him life his to plunder.
10 Nga sulela ku sik lah nga fah tia molela siti se inge, a nga fah kunausla. Ac itukyang nu inpoun tokosra lun Babylonia, ac el ac fah esukak nwe ke apatla. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
For I have set face my on the city this for harm and not for good [the] utterance of Yahweh in [the] hand of [the] king of Babylon it will be given and he will burn it with fire.
11 Fahk nu sin sou oaleum lun Judah: Lohng kas lun LEUM GOD.
And to [the] house of [the] king of Judah hear [the] word of Yahweh.
12 Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk nu suwos su fwilin tulik natul David: “Liyaung tuh nununku suwohs in orek ke len nukewa. Karinganang mwet ma pisreyukla ma la liki inpoun mwet pisrapasr. Kowos fin tia, na kasrkusrak luk ac fah tayak oana sie e su koflana kuniyukla.
O house of David thus he says Yahweh judge to the morning justice and deliver [one who] has been robbed from [the] hand of an oppressor lest it should go forth like fire rage my and it will burn and there not [will be one who] extinguishes because of [the] wickedness of (deeds your. *Q(K)*)
13 Mwet Jerusalem, kowos muta ke sie acn fulat, lucng liki infahlfal uh, oana sie eot lulap tuyak yen tupasrpasr. Tusruktu nga fah mweun lain kowos. Kowos fahk mu wangin mwet ku in mweuni kowos, ku kunausla pot ku lowos ac utyak nu in siti uh.
Here I [am] against you O inhabitant of the valley O rock of the plain [the] utterance of Yahweh O those [who] say who? will he come down on us and who? will he come in hiding places our.
14 Nga fah kalyei kowos fal nu ke orekma koluk lowos. Nga fah esukak inkul fulat sin tokosra lowos, ac e uh fah esukak ma nukewa ma oan raunela. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
And I will visit [judgment] on you according to [the] fruit of deeds your [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will kindle a fire in forest its and it will consume all around it.
