1 Ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Yeremiya, nga Nebuzaladaani omuduumizi w’abambowa amusumuludde e Laama, bwe yamusanga ng’asibiddwa mu masamba n’abasibe abalala bonna ab’e Yerusaalemi ne Yuda abaali batwalibwa e Babulooni mu busibe.
Ɔsahene Nebusaradan a otua ɔhene awɛmfo ano no gyaa Yeremia wɔ Rama akyi no, asɛm no fi Awurade nkyɛn baa Yeremia hɔ. Ohuu sɛ wɔagu Yeremia nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn wɔ nnommum a wofi Yerusalem ne Yuda a na wɔde wɔn rekɔ Babilonia no mu.
2 Omuduumizi w’abaserikale yatwala Yeremiya n’amugamba nti, “Mukama Katonda wo, ye yaleeta ekivume kino ku kifo kino.
Bere a ɔsahene a otua awɛmfo no ano no huu Yeremia no, ɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn, na ɔhyɛɛ saa amanehunu yi maa beae yi.
3 Kaakano Mukama akireese era akikoze nga bwe yasuubiza. Bino byonna byabaawo kubanga abantu bo baasobya eri Mukama ne batamugondera.
Na afei, Awurade ama aba mu, wayɛ sɛnea ɔkaa se ɔbɛyɛ no. Eyinom nyinaa baa mu, efisɛ mo saa nnipa yi yɛɛ bɔne tiaa Awurade na moanyɛ osetie amma no.
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.”
Nanso nnɛ mereyi wo afi nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a egu wo nsa no mu. Sɛ wopɛ a, ma yɛnkɔ Babilonia na mɛhwɛ wo so, nanso sɛ wompɛ de a, mma. Hwɛ ɔman no nyinaa na ɛda wʼanim no, kɔ baabiara a wopɛ.”
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.
Na ansa na Yeremia bɛdan ne ho akɔ no, Nebusaradan ka kaa ho se, “San kɔ Ahikam babarima Gedalia a, ɔyɛ Safan nena, a Babiloniahene apa no sɛ ɔnhwɛ Yuda nkurow so no nkyɛn na wo ne no nkɔtena wɔ nnipa no mu, anaasɛ kɔ baabi foforo biara a wopɛ.” Na ɔsahene no maa Yeremia aduan ne akyɛde, na ɔmaa no kɔe.
6 Awo Yeremiya n’agenda ewa Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu e Mizupa n’abeera naye n’abantu abaaliyo abaali balekeddwa mu nsi eyo.
Enti Yeremia kɔɔ Ahikam babarima Gedalia nkyɛn wɔ Mispa, na ɔne no tenaa nnipa a wɔkaa wɔ asase no so no mu.
7 Awo abakulu b’eggye lya Yuda bonna n’abasajja baabwe abaali bakyali mu byalo ne bawulira nti, Kabaka w’e Babulooni alonze Gedaliya omwana wa Akikamu okuba Gavana w’ensi era ng’amuwadde obuvunaanyizibwa bw’abantu bonna, abasajja, n’abakazi, n’abaana, n’abaali basembayo obwavu mu nsi abataatwalibwa mu buwaŋŋanguse e Babulooni.
Bere a asraafo mpanyimfo no nyinaa ne wɔn mmarima a wɔda so wɔ wuram no tee sɛ, Babiloniahene ayɛ Ahikam babarima Gedalia amrado wɔ asase no so, na ɔde mmarima, mmea ne mmofra a wɔyɛ ahiafo wɔ asase no so, na wɔamfa wɔn ankɔ nnommum mu wɔ Babilonia ahyɛ ne nsa no,
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.
wɔbaa Gedalia hɔ wɔ Mispa: Netania babarima Ismael, Karea mmabarima Yohanan ne Yonatan, Tanhumet babarima Seraia, Efai a ofi Netofa mmabarima, Yesania a ɔyɛ Maakatni babarima ne wɔn mmarima.
9 Awo Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu mutabani wa Safani n’abalayirira bo n’abasajja baabwe ng’ayogera nti, “Temutya kuweereza Bakaludaaya. Mubeere mu nsi, muweereze kabaka w’e Babulooni munaaba bulungi.
Na Ahikam babarima Gedalia a ɔyɛ Safan nena no kaa ntam de hyɛɛ wɔn ne wɔn mmarima den se, “Munnsuro sɛ mobɛsom Babiloniafo. Montena asase no so na monsom Babiloniahene, na ebesi mo yiye.
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.”
Me de, mɛtena Mispa, na masi mo anan mu wɔ Babiloniafo a, wɔba yɛn nkyɛn no mu, na mo de, monkɔboaboa nsa, ahohuru bere mu nnuaba ne ngo ano ngu adekora nkuruwa mu wɔ twabere mu, na montenatena nkurow a moafa no so.”
11 Awo Abayudaaya bonna mu Mowaabu, ne Amoni, ne Edomu n’ensi endala zonna bwe baawulira nti, Kabaka w’e Babulooni yali aleseeyo abantu mu Yuda era nga ataddewo Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu, mutabani wa Safani okuba Gavana waabwe,
Bere a Yudafo a wɔwɔ Moab, Amon, Edom ne aman ahorow a aka no, tee sɛ Babiloniahene agyaw nkae bi wɔ Yuda na wayi Ahikam babarima Gedalia a ɔyɛ Safan nena sɛ amrado wɔ wɔn so no,
12 bonna ne bakomawo mu nsi ya Yuda eri Gedaliya e Mizupa, ne bava mu nsi zonna gye baali basaasaanidde. Ne bakungula ebirime mu bungi, emizabbibu n’ebibala eby’omu kyeya.
wɔn nyinaa san baa Yuda asase so fi aman a wɔbɔɔ wɔn petee no so, kɔɔ Gedalia hɔ wɔ Mispa. Na wɔboaboaa nsa ne ahohuru bere mu nnuaba bebree ano wɔ twabere mu.
13 Awo Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya n’abakulu bonna ab’ebibinja bya magye abaali mu byalo ne bajja eri Gedaliya e Mizupa.
Na Karea babarima Yohanan ne ntuano asraafo a wɔda so wɔ wuram no baa Gedalia nkyɛn wɔ Mispa
14 Ne bamugamba nti, “Tomanyi nga Baalisi kabaka w’abaana ba Amoni atumye Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya okukutta?” Naye Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu teyakikkiriza.
na wɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Wunnim sɛ, Amonhene Baalis asoma Netania babarima Ismael se, ommekum wo ana?” Nanso Ahikam babarima Gedalia annye wɔn anni.
15 Awo Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya n’ayogera ne Gedaliya e Mizupa kyama ng’agamba nti, “Ka ŋŋende nkwegayiridde nzite Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya, so tewaliba muntu alikimanya. Lwaki akutta, Abayudaaya bonna abakuŋŋaanidde gy’oli basaasaane, ekitundu kya Yuda ekifisseewo nakyo kizikirire?”
Na Karea babarima Yohanan ka kyerɛɛ Gedalia wɔ kokoa mu wɔ Mispa se, “Ma minkokum Netania babarima Ismael, na obiara rente. Adɛn nti na ɛsɛ sɛ okum wo na ɔma Yudafo a wɔatwa wo ho ahyia no bɔ ahwete, na Yudafo nkae no yera?”
16 Naye Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu n’agamba Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya nti, “Tokola kintu bwe kityo! Ky’oyogera ku Isimayiri si kituufu.”
Nanso Ahikam babarima Gedalia ka kyerɛɛ Karea babarima Yohanan se, “Nyɛ saa ade yi! Nea woka fa Ismael ho no nyɛ nokware.”
