Jeremiah 36
1 In yac se akakosr ma Jehoiakim, wen natul Josiah, el tokosra lun Judah, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
And it happened in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah: it happened that this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying:
2 “Eis sie book limlim ac simusla ma nukewa ma nga tuh fahk nu sum lain Israel ac Judah ac mutunfacl nukewa. Simusla ma nukewa nga tuh fahk nu sum, ke pacl se emeet nga kaskas nu sum in pacl lal Tokosra Josiah nwe misenge.
“Take the volume of a book, and you shall write in it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel and Judah, and against all the nations, from the day when I first spoke to you, from the days of Josiah, even to this day.
3 Sahp ke mwet Judah ac lohng ke ma upa nukewa nga akoo in oru nu selos, elos ac forla liki ouiyen moul koluk lalos. Na nga fah nunak munas ke ma koluk ac ma sutuu lalos.”
Perhaps it may be that the house of Judah, upon hearing all the evils that I have decided to do to them, may return, each one from his wicked way, and then I will forgive their iniquity and their sin.”
4 Ouinge nga pangnol Baruch, wen natul Neriah, ac fahkang nu sel ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahkma nu sik. Ac Baruch el simusla ma inge nukewa in sie book limlim.
Therefore, Jeremiah called Baruch, the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote, from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken to him, in the volume of a book.
5 Na nga fahkang nu sel Baruch ma elan oru: “Tia filfilla nga in som nu in Tempul.
And Jeremiah instructed Baruch, saying: “I am confined, and so I am unable to enter into the house of the Lord.
6 Ke ma inge kom fah som nu we ke pacl mwet uh ac sifil tukeni in lalo. Kom fah riti book limlim uh elos in lohng ma nukewa LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ac nga takin nu sum. Riti ma inge ke sie acn ma mwet nukewa ku in lohng kom we, weang mwet Judah su tuku liki siti srisrik selos.
Therefore, you shall enter and read from the volume, in which you have written from my mouth the words of the Lord, in the hearing of the people in the house of the Lord on the day of the fast. Moreover, you shall also read them in the hearing of all those of Judah who are arriving from their cities.
7 Sahp elos fah pre nu sin LEUM GOD, ac forla liki moul koluk lalos, mweyen LEUM GOD El akkalemye tari ma El akoo in sang lainulos ke mulat ac kasrkusrak yohk lal.”
Perhaps it may happen that they pray in the sight of the Lord, and each one may return from his wicked way. For great is the fury and indignation that the Lord has declared against this people.”
8 Ouinge Baruch el riti kas lun LEUM GOD in Tempul oana ke nga supwal in oru.
And Baruch, the son of Neriah, acted in accord with all that Jeremiah, the prophet, had instructed him, reading from the volume the words of the Lord, in the house of the Lord.
9 In malem se akeu ke yac se aklimekosr ke Jehoiakim, wen natul Josiah, el tokosra lun Judah, mwet Jerusalem nukewa, oayapa mwet nukewa su tuku liki siti srisrik lun Judah, elos tukeni lalo ye mutun LEUM GOD.
And it happened that, in the fifth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, in the ninth month, they proclaimed a fast, in the sight of the Lord, to all the people in Jerusalem, and to the entire multitude which had flowed together, from the cities of Judah, into Jerusalem.
10 Na ke mwet nukewa porongo, Baruch el riti ma nukewa nga tuh fahk nu sel su simla in book limlim sac. El tu in Tempul ke infukil sel Gemariah, wen natul Shaphan mwet sim lun inkul lun tokosra. Infukil se inge oan lucng, apkuran nu ke acn in utyak lun Mutunpot Sasu lun Tempul.
And Baruch read from the volume the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord, at the treasury of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, the scribe, in the upper vestibule, at the entrance to the new gate of the house of the Lord, in the hearing of all the people.
11 Micaiah, wen natul Gemariah su ma natul Shaphan, el lohng ke Baruch el riti kas nukewa lun LEUM GOD ma simla in book limlim sac.
And when Micaiah, the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard all the words of the Lord from the book,
12 Na el som nu inkul fulat sin tokosra, nu infukil sin mwet sim lun tokosra, yen mwet leum nukewa tukeni we. Elishama, su mwet sim lun tokosra, Delaiah wen natul Shemaiah, Elnathan wen natul Achbor, Gemariah wen natul Shaphan, Zedekiah wen natul Hananiah, ac mwet leum saya nukewa elos oasr we.
he descended to the house of the king, to the treasury of the scribe. And behold, all the leaders were sitting there: Elishama, the scribe, and Delaiah, the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah, the son of Hananiah, and all the leaders.
13 Micaiah el fahkang nu selos ma nukewa ma el lohng Baruch el riti nu sin mwet uh.
And Micaiah announced to them all the words that he had heard when Baruch read from the volume to the ears of the people.
14 Na mwet leum elos supwalla Jehudi (wen natul Nethaniah, su ma natul Shelemiah, su ma natul Cushi) in fahk nu sel Baruch elan use book limlim se ma el tuh riti nu sin mwet ah. Na Baruch el use book limlim sac nu yorolos.
And so, all the leaders sent Jehudi, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, “Take in your hand the volume, from which you have read in the hearing of the people, and come.” Therefore, Baruch, the son of Neriah, took the volume in his hand, and he went to them.
15 Na elos fahk, “Fahsru muta, ac riti book limlim sacn nu sesr.” Na Baruch el riti nu selos.
And they said to him, “Sit and read these things in our hearing.” And Baruch read in their hearing.
16 Tukun el riti tari, elos ngetani nu sin sie sin sie ke lut ac fosrnga, ac elos fahk nu sel Baruch, “Kut enenu in fahkang ma inge nu sel tokosra.”
Therefore, when they had heard all the words, each one looked at his neighbor in astonishment, and they said to Baruch: “We ought to report all these words to the king.”
17 Na elos siyuk sel Baruch, “Fahk nu sesr lah fuka tuh kom simusla ma inge nukewa? Ya Jeremiah pa fahkot ma kom in simis uh?”
And they questioned him, saying, “Describe to us how you wrote all these words from his mouth.”
18 Baruch el topuk, “Jeremiah el fahk kas inge nukewa nu sik, na nga simusla ke ink nu in book limlim se inge.”
Then Baruch said to them: “He was speaking with his mouth, as if reading to me. And I wrote in a volume with ink.”
19 Na elos fahk nu sel, “Kom ac Jeremiah enenu in som wikla. Taran mwet in tia etu yen komtal wikla we.”
And the leaders said to Baruch: “Go away and hide, you and Jeremiah, and let no one know where you are.”
20 Mwet leum elos filiya book limlim sac infukil sel Elishama, mwet sim lun tokosra, na elos som nu inkalkal lun tokosra, ac srumunang ma inge nukewa nu sel.
And they entered to the king, in the court. Furthermore, they stored the volume in the treasury of Elishama, the scribe. And they announced all the words in the hearing of the king.
21 Na tokosra el supwalla Jehudi elan use book limlim sac. El som use liki infukil sel Elishama ac riti nu sel tokosra ac mwet leum nukewa su tu raunella.
And the king sent Jehudi to take the volume. And bringing it from the treasury of Elishama, the scribe, he read it in the hearing of the king and of all the leaders who were standing around the king.
22 Pacl sac pacl in mihsrisr, ouinge tokosra el muta sisken e se ke nien ta e in lohm se el muta we ke pacl in mihsrisr.
Now the king was sitting in the winter house, in the ninth month. And there was a hearth placed before him, filled with burning coals.
23 Tukunna Jehudi el ritela tak tolkwe ku akosr kac, na tokosra el sang mitmit srisrik se supukla ac sisang nu in e sac. El sipik, na firri, nwe ke na lisr book limlim sac.
And when Jehudi had read three or four pages, he cut it with a small knife, and he threw it into the fire which was upon the hearth, until the entire volume was consumed by the fire which was upon the hearth.
24 Tokosra ac mwet leum lal nukewa su lohng ma ritiyuk inge tiana luman sangeng ku oela kutu srisrik.
And the king and all his servants, who had heard all these words, were not afraid, and they did not rend their garments.
25 Elnathan, Delaiah, ac Gemariah nwe kwafe sel tokosra elan tia isik book limlim sac, a el tiana lohngoltal.
Yet truly, Elnathan, and Delaiah, and Gemariah contradicted the king, so that he might not burn the book. But he did not listen to them.
26 Toko el sapkin Fisrak Jerahmeel, welul Seraiah wen natul Azriel, ac Shelemiah wen natul Abdeel, in sruokyuwi ac Baruch mwet sim luk. Tusruktu LEUM GOD El wikinkutla.
And the king instructed Jerahmeel, the son of Amelech, and Seraiah, the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah, the son of Abdeel, so that they would apprehend Baruch, the scribe, and Jeremiah, the prophet. But the Lord concealed them.
27 Tukun Tokosra Jehoiakim el esukak book limlim se ma nga sap Baruch elan simusla kas nukewa nga fahk nu sel, na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik
And after the king had burned the volume and the words that Baruch had written from the mouth of Jeremiah, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, the prophet, saying:
28 ngan eis sie pac book limlim, ac simusla kas nukewa ma oan in book se meet ah.
“Again, take another volume and write in it all the former words, which were in the first volume that Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, has burned.
29 LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sik in fahk nu sel tokosra, “Kom esukak book limlim sac, ac kom tuh siyuk sel Jeremiah lah efu ku el simusla mu tokosra lun Babylonia ac tuku ac kunausla facl se inge ac onela mwet fac wi pac ma orakrak.
And you shall say to Jehoiakim, the king of Judah: Thus says the Lord: You have burned that volume, saying: ‘Why have you written in it, announcing that the king of Babylon will advance quickly, and will devastate this land, and will cause both man and beast to cease from it?’
30 Ke ma inge, Tokosra Jehoiakim, nga, LEUM GOD, fahk nu sum lah wangin sin fwilin tulik nutum ac fah leum fin tokosrai lal David. Mano misa lom ac fah sisila in oan ye fol lun faht ke len, ac ye ohu lun fong uh.
Because of this, thus says the Lord against Jehoiakim, the king of Judah: There will be, from him, no one who may sit upon the throne of David. And his dead body shall be cast out: to the heat by day, and to the frost by night.
31 Nga fah kalyei kom ac fwilin tulik nutum ac mwet leum lom, ke sripen orekma koluk nukewa kowos oru. Kowos, oayapa mwet Jerusalem ac mwet Judah, tiana porongo kas in sensenkakin luk nu suwos. Ouinge nga fah use nu fowos nukewa mwe ongoiya ma nga fahk tari mu nga ac oru.”
And I will visit against him, and against his offspring, and against his servants for their iniquities. And I will lead over them, and over the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and over the men of Judah, all the evil that I have declared against them, for they have not listened.”
32 Na nga eis sie pac book limlim ac sang nu sel Baruch mwet sim luk, ac el simusla kas nukewa ma nga fahk nu sel. El simusla ma nukewa ma tuh oan in book limlim se ma Tokosra Jehoiakim el tuh esukak, wi pac kutu kas ma nga sang laesla.
Then Jeremiah took up another volume, and he gave it to Baruch, the son of Neriah, the scribe, who wrote in it, from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the book that Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, had burned with fire. And moreover, there were many more words added than there had been before.
