Jeremiah 34
1 LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ke pacl se Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia ac un mwet mweun lal, wi kasru lun mutunfacl nukewa ac kain in mwet nukewa su oan ye nununku lal, elos tuh mweuni Jerusalem ac inkul nukewa ma apkuran.
The word that came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth under his dominion, and all the peoples, fought against Jerusalem and against all the cities thereof, saying,
2 LEUM GOD lun Israel El tuh fahk nu sik in som nu yorol Tokosra Zedekiah lun Judah, ac fahk, “Nga, LEUM GOD, fah sang siti se inge nu inpoun tokosra lun Babylonia, ac el ac furreak.
Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: Go and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.
3 Kom ac fah tia kaingla. Ac fah sruoh kom ac utukla kom nu yorol. Komtal ac fah ngetani nu sie, ac kom fah sifacna kaskas nu sel, na toko kom fah som nu Babylonia.
And thou shalt not escape out of his hand, but shalt certainly be taken, and given into his hand; and thine eyes shall behold the eyes of the king of Babylon, and his mouth shall speak with thy mouth, and thou shalt go to Babylon.
4 Zedekiah, porongo ma nga fahk keim uh. Kom ac fah tia anwuki ke mweun.
Only, hear the word of Jehovah, O Zedekiah king of Judah. Thus saith Jehovah as to thee: Thou shalt not die by the sword;
5 Kom fah misa in misla, ac oana ke mwet uh tuh furreak mwe keng ke pacl elos pikinya papa matu nukewa tomom su tuh tokosra mwet liki kom, in ouiya sacna elos fah furreak pac mwe keng keim. Elos fah mwemelil keim ac fahk, ‘We! Tokosra lasr el misa!’ Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
thou shalt die in peace, and with the burnings of thy fathers, the former kings that were before thee, so shall they burn for thee; and they will lament for thee, Ah, lord! for I have spoken the word, saith Jehovah.
6 Na nga sang pweng se inge nu sel Tokosra Zedekiah in Jerusalem
And the prophet Jeremiah spoke all these words unto Zedekiah king of Judah, in Jerusalem.
7 ke pacl se un mwet mweun lun tokosra Babylonia elos mweuni siti sac. Mwet mweun elos oayapa mweuni Lachish ac Azekah, su pwayena siti lula ma potiyukyak in acn Judah.
And the king of Babylon's army fought against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish, and against Azekah; for these were amongst the cities of Judah, the fenced cities that were left.
8 Tokosra Zedekiah ac mwet Jerusalem elos insesela in aksukosokye
The word that came unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, after that king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people that were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty unto them:
9 mwet kohs Hebrew lalos, kewana mukul ac mutan, tuh in fah wangin mwet Israel akkohsyeyuk sin sie pac mwet Israel.
that every man should let his bondman, and every man his bondmaid, the Hebrew and the Hebrewess, go free, that none should exact service of them, [that is, ] of a Jew his brother.
10 Mwet nukewa, wi mwet kol lalos, insesela in tulala mwet kohs lalos ac tia sifilpa akkohsyelos. Ouinge elos aksukosokyalosla.
And all the princes and all the people that had entered into the covenant obeyed, every man letting his bondman and every man his bondmaid go free, that none should exact service of them any more: they obeyed, and let [them] go.
11 Tusruktu tok elos aolla nunak lalos, folokunulosme, ac sifilpa akkohsyelos.
But afterwards they turned, and caused the bondmen and the bondmaids whom they had let go free, to return, and brought them into subjection for bondmen and for bondmaids.
12 Na LEUM GOD,
And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
13 God lun Israel, El tuh fahk nu sik in fahk nu sin mwet uh: “Nga orala sie wuleang yurin mwet matu lowos pacl se nga usalosme liki facl Egypt, ac aksukosokyalosla liki moul in mwet kohs. Nga fahkang nu selos lah
Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying,
14 yac akitkosr nukewa elos in tulala kutena mwet kohs Hebrew su kulansupwalos ke yac onkosr. Tusruktu papa matu tomowos tuh tiana lohma nu sik ku lipsre ma nga fahk ah.
At the end of seven years ye shall let go every man his brother, a Hebrew, who hath sold himself unto thee; when he hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee. But your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined their ear.
15 Na inmasrlon len na pu somla, kowos aolla nunak lowos ac oru ma nga insewowo kac. Kowos nukewa insesela in fuhlela mwet Israel wiowos in sukosok, ac kowos orala sie wuleang ye mutuk in Tempul, yen mwet uh alu nu sik we.
And you, ye had this day turned, and had done right in my sight, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbour; and ye had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name:
16 Na kowos sifilpa aolla nunak lowos ac pilesreyula. Kowos nukewa folokonma mwet kohs lowos su kowos tuh tulala oana ma elos lungse, ac kowos sifilpa akkohsyelos.
but ye have turned and profaned my name, and caused every man his bondman, and every man his bondmaid, whom ye had set at liberty at their pleasure, to return, and ye have brought them into subjection, to be unto you for bondmen and for bondmaids.
17 Ke ma inge nga, LEUM GOD, fahk lah ke sripen kowos seakosyu ac tiana sang tuh mwet Israel wiowos in sukosokla, na nga fah sot sie sukosok nu suwos. Kowos sukosok in misa ke mweun, mas upa, ac masrinsracl. Nga fah oru mutunfacl nukewa fin faclu in sangengla ke ma nga ac oru nu suwos.
Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith Jehovah, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will give you over to be driven hither and thither among all the kingdoms of the earth.
18 Mweyen kowos likinsai wuleang inmasrlosr, ac tia akpwayeye kas in wuleang ma kowos oru ye mutuk, nga fah oru nu suwos oana ke kowos fulungya cow fusr soko, ac fahsr inmasrlon ip luo kac in akkeye wuleang lowos.
And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they had made before me, — the calf which they cut in twain, and passed between the parts thereof,
19 Mwet fulat lun Judah, mwet fulat lun Jerusalem, mwet eunuch, mwet tol, ac mwet nukewa in facl sac su wi fahsr inmasrlon ip luo ke cow fusr soko ah,
— the princes of Judah and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, that passed between the parts of the calf;
20 nga ac fah eisalosyang nu sin mwet lokoalok lalos ac nu selos su suk in onelosi. Mano misa lalos ac fah mongola sin won ac kosro in ima uh.
them will I give into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of them that seek their life; and their carcases shall be food for the fowl of the heavens and for the beasts of the earth.
21 Nga fah oayapa eisalang Tokosra Zedekiah lun Judah, ac mwet fulat lal, nu selos su kena onelosi. Nga fah eisalosyang nu inpoun mwet mweun lun Babylonia, su tui in mweuni kowos in pacl se inge.
And Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, which are gone up from you.
22 Nga fah sap elos in foloko nu in siti se inge. Elos fah mweuni, sruokya, ac esukak. Nga fah oru siti srisrik lun Judah in oana acn mwesis se su wangin mwet muta we. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
Behold, I command, saith Jehovah, and I will cause them to return to this city; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire; and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.
