2 Omuduumizi w’abaserikale yatwala Yeremiya n’amugamba nti, “Mukama Katonda wo, ye yaleeta ekivume kino ku kifo kino.

Esi aʋafia la ke ɖe Yeremia ŋu la, egblɔ nɛ be, “Yehowa, wò Mawu lae gblɔ dzɔgbevɔ̃e sia ɖe teƒe sia ŋu.

3 Kaakano Mukama akireese era akikoze nga bwe yasuubiza. Bino byonna byabaawo kubanga abantu bo baasobya eri Mukama ne batamugondera.

Ke azɔ la, Yehowa na wòva eme tututu abe ale si wògblɔe la ene. Esia katã va eme elabena mi ame siawo miewɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe Yehowa ŋu eye mieɖo toe o.

4 Naye leero nkusumulula okuva mu njegere ez’oku mikono gyo. Jjangu tugende ffembi e Babulooni obanga oyagala, nnaakulabirira; naye bw’oba nga toyagala, tojja. Laba, ensi yonna eri mu maaso go, genda yonna gy’oyagala.”

Ke egbe la, meɖe ga le alɔnu na wò, ne elɔ̃ la, kplɔm ɖo míayi Babilonia, makpɔ dziwò nyuie, gake ne melɔ̃ o la, ate ŋu anɔ anyi faa. Kpɔ ɖa, anyigba blibo la le ŋkuwò me, yi afi sia afi si nèlɔ̃ la faa.”

5 Wabula Yeremiya nga tannaba kukyuka kugenda, Nebuzaladaani n’ayongerako nti, “Ddayo eri Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu mutabani wa Safani, kabaka w’e Babulooni gw’afudde Gavana w’ebibuga bya Yuda, obeere naye mu bantu, oba genda yonna gy’osiima okubeera.” Awo omuduumizi w’abambowa n’amuwa ebyokulya n’ekirabo n’amuleka.

Gake hafi Yeremia natrɔ be yeadzo la, Nebuzaradan gblɔ kpe ɖe eŋu nɛ be, “Trɔ yi ɖe Gedalia, Ahikam ƒe vi, Safan ƒe vi ame si Babilonia fia tsɔ ɖo Yuda duwo nu la gbɔ eye nànɔ egbɔ le ameawo dome alo nàyi afi sia afi si nèlɔ.” Emegbe aʋafia la tsɔ nu hiahiã aɖewo kple nunana aɖe nɛ eye wòɖe asi le eŋu.

6 Awo Yeremiya n’agenda ewa Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu e Mizupa n’abeera naye n’abantu abaaliyo abaali balekeddwa mu nsi eyo.

Esi asrafowo ƒe amegã siwo le aʋagbedzi se be Babilonia fia tsɔ Ahikam ƒe vi, Gedalia ɖo mɔmefiae ɖe anyigba la dzi, hetsɔ ŋutsuwo, nyɔnuwo kple ɖeviwo, ame siwo nye ame dahewo eye womekplɔ wo yi aboyo mee le Babilonia o la de eƒe dzikpɔkpɔ te la,

8 Awo Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya, ne Yokanaani ne Yonasaani batabani ba Kaleya, ne Seraya mutabani wa Tanukumesi, ne batabani ba Efayi Omunetofa, ne Yezaniya omwana w’omu Maakasi, ne bagenda n’abasajja baabwe eri Gedaliya e Mizupa.

10 Nze kennyini nzija kusigala e Mizupa okubakiikirira eri Abakaludaaya abajja gye tuli, naye mmwe mukungule emizabbibu, n’ebibala eby’omu kyeya, mukuŋŋaanye n’omuzigo mubiteeke mu materekero gammwe, mubeere mu bibuga bye mufuga.”

13 Awo Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya n’abakulu bonna ab’ebibinja bya magye abaali mu byalo ne bajja eri Gedaliya e Mizupa.

Karea ƒe vi, Yohanan kple asrafomegã siwo gale gbea dzi la va Gedalia gbɔ le Mizpa

14 Ne bamugamba nti, “Tomanyi nga Baalisi kabaka w’abaana ba Amoni atumye Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya okukutta?” Naye Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu teyakikkiriza.

eye wogblɔ nɛ be, “Mènya be Amonitɔwo ƒe fia Balis dɔ Netania ƒe vi, Ismael be wòava ɖe wò agbe ɖa oa?” Ke Ahikam ƒe vi, Gedalia mexɔ woƒe nya la dzi se o.

Tete Karea ƒe vi, Yohanan ɖe kpɔ Gedalia le Mizpa hegblɔ nɛ be, “Na mayi aɖawu Netania ƒe vi, Ismael eye ame aɖeke manya o. Nu ka ta wòaɖe wò agbe ɖa, ahawɔe be Yudatɔ siwo katã ƒo ta kpli ɖe ŋuwò la nakaka eye Yuda ƒe ame mamlɛawo natsrɔ̃?”

16 Naye Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu n’agamba Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya nti, “Tokola kintu bwe kityo! Ky’oyogera ku Isimayiri si kituufu.”

Ke Gedalia, Ahikam ƒe vi, ɖo eŋu na Yohanan, Karea ƒe vi la be, “Mègawɔ nenema o! Nya si gblɔm nèle la nye alakpa nèle dadam ɖe Ismael si.”
