Ɔde krataa no hyɛɛ Safan babarima Elasa ne Hilkia babarima Gemaria nsa, wɔn na Yudahene Sedekia somaa wɔn kɔɔ Ɔhene Nebukadnessar nkyɛn wɔ Babilonia no. Krataa no mu nsɛm ni:

4 Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri, ng’agamba abo bonna be natwala mu buwaŋŋanguse okuva mu Yerusaalemi okugenda mu Babulooni nti,

Nea Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, ka kyerɛ wɔn a mema wɔfaa wɔn nnommum fi Yerusalem kɔɔ Babilonia no nyinaa ni:

5 “Mwezimbire amayumba mutuule omwo; mulime ennimiro mulye ebibala byamu.

“Munsisi afi, na momfa mmɔ atenase; monyɛ nturo na munni mu aba.

6 Muwase muzaale abaana aboobulenzi n’aboobuwala; muwasize batabani bammwe abakazi, ne bawala bammwe mubafumbize, nabo bazaale abaana abalenzi n’abawala. Mweyongere obungi eyo, temukendeera.

Monwareware, na monwowo mmabarima ne mmabea. Monhwehwɛ yerenom mma mo mmabarima na momfa mo mmabea nso mma aware, na wɔn nso nwowo mmabarima ne mmabea. Monnɔ wɔ hɔ na mo so antew.

7 Era munoonye emirembe n’okukulaakulana kw’ekibuga gye mbatutte mu buwaŋŋanguse. Musabenga Mukama, ekibuga mukisabire kubanga bwe kikulaakulana nammwe mujja kukulaakulana.”

Afei, monhwehwɛ kuropɔn a mema wotuu mo kɔtenaa so no asomdwoe ne yiyedi. Mommɔ Awurade mpae mma no, efisɛ ne yiyedi mu na mo nso mubedi yiye.”

8 Ddala kino Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri ky’agamba nti, “Temukkiriza bannabbi n’abalaguzi abali mu mmwe kubalimbalimba. Temussaayo mwoyo ku birooto byabwe bye babalootolola.

Yiw, sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn se: “Mommma adiyifo ne nkɔmhyɛfo a wɔwɔ mo mu no nnaadaa mo. Munntie wɔn adae a mohyɛ wɔn nkuran ma wɔsoso no.

9 Babategeeza obunnabbi bwa bulimba mu linnya lyange. Sibatumanga,” bw’ayogera Mukama.

Wɔhyɛ atoro nkɔm wɔ me din mu. Mensomaa wɔn,” Awurade na ose.

10 Ddala ddala bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Emyaka nsanvu nga giweddeko e Babulooni, ndijja gye muli ntuukirize ekisuubizo kyange eky’ekisa mbakomyewo mu kifo kino.

Nea Awurade se ni: “Sɛ mosom Babilonia mfe aduɔson a, mɛba abɛhwɛ mo na mɛma mʼadom mu bɔhyɛ sɛ mede mo bɛba ha bio no aba mu.

11 Kubanga mmanyi enteekateeka ze nnina gye muli, enteekateeka ez’okubakulaakulanya so si okubakolako akabi, enteekateeka ez’okubawa essuubi era n’obulamu obw’omu maaso,” bw’ayogera Mukama.

Minim nhyehyɛe a mewɔ ma mo,” Awurade na ose, “Nhyehyɛe a ɛde mo besi yiye na ɛrenhaw mo, nhyehyɛe a ɛbɛma mo anidaso ne awiei pa.

12 “Awo mulimpita ne mujja ne munsaba, nange ne mbawulira,” bw’ayogera Mukama.

Afei mobɛfrɛ me na moaba abɛbɔ me mpae, na metie mo.

13 “Mulinnoonya ne mundaba bwe mulinnoonya n’omutima gwammwe gwonna.

Mobɛhwehwɛ me na mubehu me, sɛ mode mo koma nyinaa hwehwɛ me a.

14 Mulinzuula era ndibakomyawo okubaggya mu buwaŋŋanguse. Ndibakuŋŋaanya mu mawanga gonna n’ebifo byonna, gye nabagobera, era ndibakomyawo mu kifo mwe nabaggya okubatwala mu buwaŋŋanguse,” bw’ayogera Mukama.

Mubehu me,” Awurade na ose, “na meyi mo afi nkoasom mu de mo asan aba. Mɛboaboa mo ano afi amanaman ne mu ne faako a mepam mo kɔɔ no nyinaa,” Awurade na ose, “na mede mo bɛsan aba faako a mituu mo fi kɔɔ nnommum mu no bio.”

15 Muyinza okugamba nti, “Mukama atuyimusirizza bannabbi mu Babulooni.”

Mobɛka se, “Awurade ama yɛn adiyifo wɔ Babilonia,”

16 Naye kino Mukama ky’agamba ku kabaka atuula ku ntebe ya Dawudi n’abantu bonna abaasigala mu kibuga kino, n’abantu ab’ensi yammwe abataagenda nammwe mu buwaŋŋanguse.

nanso, sɛɛ na Awurade ka fa ɔhene a ɔte Dawid ahengua so ne nnipa a wɔaka wɔ kuropɔn no mu nyinaa, mo manfo a wɔne mo ankɔ nnommum mu no.

17 Bw’ati bwayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Ndisindika ekitala, n’enjala ne kawumpuli okubalumba era mbafuule ng’emitiini emibi ennyo egitayinza kuliika olw’obubi bwagyo.

Yiw, nea Asafo Awurade se ni: “Mɛma afoa, ɔkɔm ne ɔyaredɔm aba wɔn so, na wɔayɛ sɛ borɔdɔma a asɛe enti wontumi nni.

18 Ndibagoberera n’ekitala, n’enjala ne kawumpuli ne mbafuula ekyenyinyalwa eri obwakabaka bwonna obw’ensi era ekikolimo n’ekikangabwa, n’eky’okusekererwa n’okuvumwa eri amawanga gonna gye ndibagobera.

Mede afoa, ɔkɔm ne ɔyaredɔm betiw wɔn, na mɛyɛ wɔn atantanne ama ahenni a ɛwɔ asase no so nyinaa, ne nnome ne ahodwiriwde, fɛwdi ne animtiaabude wɔ amanaman a mepam wɔn kɔɔ so no mu.

19 Kubanga tebaawuliriza bigambo byange,” bwayogera Mukama, “ebigambo bye nabatumira emirundi emingi mu baweereza bange bannabbi. Era nammwe abawaŋŋanguse temuwulirizza,” bw’ayogera Mukama.

Efisɛ, wɔantie me nsɛm,” sɛɛ na Awurade se, “nsɛm a mede somaa mʼasomfo adiyifo mpɛn bebree baa mo nkyɛn. Na mo nnommum nso antie,” Awurade na ose.

20 Noolwekyo, muwulirize ekigambo kya Mukama, mmwe mwenna abali mu buwaŋŋanguse be nagoba mu Yerusaalemi okugenda mu Babulooni.

Afei muntie Awurade asɛm, mo nnommum a mama mo afi Yerusalem akɔ Babilonia no nyinaa.

21 Kino Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri, ky’ayogera ku Akabu mutabani wa Kolaya ne Zeddekiya mutabani wa Maaseya, abaawa obunnabbi mu linnya lyange nti, “Ndibawaayo eri Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni, abatte nga mulaba.

Sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn ka fa Kolaia babarima Ahab ne Maaseia babarima Sedekia a wɔde me din rehyɛ mo atoro nkɔm no ho ni: “Mede wɔn bɛhyɛ Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar nsa, na wakum wɔn wɔ mo anim.

22 Olw’abasajja abo, abali mu buwaŋŋanguse bonna abaava mu Yuda abali mu Babulooni balikozesa ekikolimo kino nti, ‘Mukama akukole nga bwe yakola Zeddekiya ne Akabu, kabaka w’e Babulooni be yayokya mu muliro.’

Esiane wɔn nti, Yuda nnommum a wɔwɔ Babilonia nyinaa de saa nnome yi bɛdome sɛ: ‘Awurade nyɛ wo sɛ, Sedekia ne Ahab a Babiloniahene hyew wɔn wɔ ogya mu no.’

23 Kubanga bakoze eby’ekivve mu Isirayiri; bakoze obwenzi ne baka baliraanwa baabwe era ne boogera eby’obulimba mu linnya lyange, bye sibagambanga kwogera. Nkimanyi era ndi mujulirwa ku ekyo,” bw’ayogera Mukama.

Na wɔayɛ akyiwade a ɛboro so wɔ Israel: wɔne wɔn yɔnkonom yerenom adeda de asɛe aware, na wɔde me din adi atoro a menka nkyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ. Minim na midi ho adanse,” Awurade na ose.

24 Semaaya Omunekeramu mugambe nti,

Ka kyerɛ Nehelamni Semaia se,

25 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, Waweereza ebbaluwa mu mannya go eri abantu bonna mu Yerusaalemi, eri Zeffaniya mutabani wa Maaseya kabona ne bakabona bonna. Wagamba Zeffaniya nti,

“Nea Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn se ni: Wokyerɛw krataa wɔ wo din mu kɔmaa nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem nyinaa, ɔsɔfo Maaseia babarima Sefania, ne asɔfo a aka no nyinaa. Woka kyerɛɛ Sefania se,

26 ‘Mukama yakuteekawo okuba kabona mu kifo kya Yekoyaada okutwala obuvunaanyizibwa ku nnyumba ya Mukama; oteekwa okuteeka omulalu yenna eyefuula nga nnabbi mu nvuba ne mu masamba.

‘Awurade ahyɛ wo sɔfo asi Yehoiada anan mu se hwɛ Awurade fi no so; Ɛsɛ sɛ wode nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn ne dade konnua gu obiara a wabɔ dam na ɔyɛ ne ho sɛ odiyifo no.

27 Noolwekyo lwaki tokangavudde Yeremiya ow’e Yanasosi, eyefuula nnabbi wakati mu mmwe?

Afei adɛn nti na wonka Yeremia a ofi Anatot a ɔyɛ ne ho sɛ odiyifo wɔ mo mu no anim?

28 Atuweerezza obubaka buno mu Babulooni ng’agamba nti, Obuwaŋŋanguse bwammwe bujja kubeera bwa bbanga ddene. Noolwekyo mwezimbire amayumba mutereere mu nsi, mulime ennimiro mulye ebibala byamu.’”

Ɔde saa nkra yi abrɛ yɛn wɔ Babilonia: Ɛbɛkyɛ. Ɛno nti munsisi afi mfa nyɛ atenae; monyɛ nturo na munni mu aba.’”

29 Wabula Zeffaniya kabona nasomera nnabbi Yeremiya ebbaluwa eno.

Ɔsɔfo Sefania kenkan krataa no kyerɛɛ odiyifo Yeremia.

30 Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Yeremiya nti,

Na Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia nkyɛn se,

31 “Muweereze obubaka buno eri abawaŋŋanguse nti, ‘Kino Mukama ky’agamba ku Semaaya Omunekeramu. Kubanga Semaaya yakuwa obunnabbi, wadde nga ssamutuma, era akutuusizza ku kwesiga eby’obulimba,

“Fa saa nkra yi kɔma nnommum no nyinaa se, ‘Eyi ne nea Awurade ka fa Nehelamni Semaia ho: Esiane sɛ wahyɛ mo nkɔm a mpo mansoma no, na wama moagye atoro adi nti,

32 kino Mukama ky’agamba nti, Ddala ddala ndibonereza Semaaya Omunekeramu n’abantu b’omu nju ye. Tewaliba n’omu alisigalawo ku bantu be, wadde aliraba ebirungi bye ndikolera abantu bange, kubanga ayigirizza abantu okunjeemera, bw’ayogera Mukama.’”

nea Awurade se ni: Nokware, mɛtwe Nehelamni Semaia ne nʼasefo aso. Ɔrennya obiara a ɔbɛka wɔ saa nkurɔfo yi mu, na ɔrenhu nneɛma pa a mɛyɛ ama me nkurɔfo, efisɛ waka atuatew nsɛm atia me,’” Awurade na ose.
