2 Ekibbo ekimu kyalimu ettiini nga nnungi nnyo ng’eyo esooka okwengera, n’ekibbo ekirala kyalimu ettiini nga mbi nnyo, ezitayinza kuliika.
Kɛntɛn baako mu borɔdɔma no yɛ papa te sɛ deɛ ɛbere ntɛm; borɔdɔma a ɛwɔ kɛntɛn a ɛka ho no mu no nyɛ mma sɛdeɛ wɔdie mpo.
3 Mukama n’ambuuza nti, “Olaba ki Yeremiya?” Ne muddamu nti, “Ndaba ettiini. Ennungi nga nnungi nnyo naye embi nga mbi nnyo ezitayinza kuliika.”
Na Awurade bisaa me sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wohunu, Yeremia?” Mebuaa sɛ, “Borɔdɔma, deɛ ɛyɛ pa ara, ne deɛ ɛnyɛ mma sɛdeɛ wɔdie mpo.”
4 Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira nti,
Ɛna Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,
5 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, ‘Ng’ettiini zino ennungi, ndaba nti abawaŋŋanguse b’omu Yuda balungi, be natwala okuva mu kifo kino eri mu nsi ey’Abakaludaaya.
“Yei ne deɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn seɛ: ‘Borɔdɔma papa no gyina hɔ ma atukɔfoɔ a wɔfiri Yuda, wɔn a metwaa wɔn asuo kɔɔ Babilonia asase so no.
6 Amaaso gange gajja kubalabirira olw’obulungi bwabwe, era nzija kubakomyawo mu nsi eno. Nzija kubazimba era nneme kubamenyaamenya: nzija kubasimba nneme kubakuula.
Mɛma mʼani aku wɔn ho, ama wɔn yiedie, na mɛsane de wɔn aba ha bio. Mɛsiesie wɔn na merensɛe wɔn. Mɛdua wɔn, na merentu wɔn ase.
7 Ndibawa omutima bammanye, nti nze Mukama. Balibeera bantu bange, nange ndibeera Katonda waabwe, kubanga balidda gye ndi n’omutima gwabwe gwonna.
Mɛma wɔn akoma a wɔde bɛhunu me sɛ, me ne Awurade. Wɔbɛyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ, na mɛyɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔde wɔn akoma nyinaa bɛsane aba me nkyɛn.
8 “‘Naye ng’ettiini embi, embi ennyo ezitayinzika kuliika, bwe ntyo bwe nnaakola Zeddekiya kabaka wa Yuda, n’abakungu be n’abo abaasigalawo mu Yerusaalemi, oba abaasigalawo mu nsi eno oba abo ababeera mu Misiri,’ bw’ayogera Mukama.
“‘Nanso te sɛ borɔdɔma a ɛnyɛ no, deɛ ɛnyɛ mma sɛdeɛ wɔdie mpo no,’ deɛ Awurade seɛ nie, ‘saa ara na mɛyɛ Yudahene Sedekia, nʼadwumayɛfoɔ ne Yerusalem nkaeɛfoɔ, sɛ wɔte asase yi so anaa wɔte Misraim.
9 ‘Ndibafuula kyennyinnyalwa era eky’omuzizo eri amawanga g’ensi, eky’okusekererwa era olugero obugero, ekintu eky’okusekererwa era eky’okukolimirwanga yonna gye nnaabagoberanga.
Mɛma wɔn ayɛ akyiwadeɛ ne mfomsodeɛ ama ahennie a ɛwɔ asase so nyinaa, wɔbɛyɛ ahɔhora na wɔabɔ wɔn din bɔne, wɔbɛyɛ asredeɛ ne mmusuo baabiara a mɛpam wɔn akɔ.
10 Ndireeta ekitala, n’ekyeya, ne kawumpuli okubalumba okutuusa lwe balizikirira babule ku nsi gye nabawa ne bakitaabwe.’”
Mɛsoma akofena, ɛkɔm ne yaredɔm akɔ wɔn so kɔsi sɛ wɔbɛsɛe wɔn koraa afiri asase a mede maa wɔn ne wɔn agyanom.’”
