2 Umlawuli wabalindi esethole uJeremiya wathi kuye, “UThixo uNkulunkulu wakho wamisela indawo le umonakalo lo.
Captain fulat sac el pangonyu ac fahk nu sik, “LEUM GOD lom El sulkakin tari lah mwe ongoiya inge ac tuku nu fin facl se inge.
3 Khathesi uThixo usewulethile; usenze ayethe uzakwenza. Konke lokhu kwenzakala ngoba lina bantu lona kuThixo njalo kalimlalelanga.
Na inge El oru oana ma El fahk. Ma inge nukewa sikyak ke sripen mwet lom orekma koluk lain LEUM GOD ac tia aksol.
4 Kodwa lamhla ngiyakukhulula amaketane ezihlakaleni zakho. Hamba lami eBhabhiloni, nxa uthanda, ngizakugcina; kodwa nxa ungafuni, ungahambi. Khangela, ilizwe lonke liphambi kwakho; yana loba kungaphi lapho ofuna khona.”

5 Kodwa-ke kwathi uJeremiya engakasuki ukuba ahambe, uNebhuzaradani wengeza wathi, “Buyela kuGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikhami, indodana kaShafani, osebekwe yinkosi yaseBhabhiloni ukuba abuse amadolobho akoJuda, uhlale laye phakathi kwabantu, kumbe uye loba kungaphi lapho ofuna khona.” Emva kwalokho umlawuli wamnika umphako lesipho wasesithi kahambe.
Na ke nga pahtlac in topkol, Nebuzaradan el fahk, “Kom fin lungse mutana inge, kom ku in folokla nu yorol Gedaliah, wen natul Ahikam su ma natul Shaphan, su tokosra lun Babylonia el tuh sulella elan governor ke siti lun Judah. Kom ku in muta yorol inmasrlon mwet uh, ku kom ku in som nu kutena acn kom lungse muta we.” Na el se nu sik mwe kite se ac mwe mongo nga in us, ac filiyula in som.
6 Ngakho uJeremiya waya kuGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikhami eMizipha wahlala phakathi kwabantu ababetshiywe elizweni.
Na nga folokla nu yorol Gedaliah in acn Mizpah, ac muta inmasrlon mwet ma lula in facl sac.
7 Kwathi zonke izikhulu zabalawuli bamabutho lamabutho azo ayesegangeni sebezwe ukuthi inkosi yaseBhabhiloni yayisibeke uGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikhami ukuba abe ngumbusi welizwe njalo imenze waba ngumphathi wamadoda labesifazane kanye labantwana ababengabayanga bokucina elizweni njalo ababengasiwanga ekuthunjweni eBhabhiloni,

9 UGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikhami, indodana kaShafani, wafunga isifungo ebathembisa labantu babo, wathi, “Lingesabi ukusebenzela amaKhaladiya. Hlalani elizweni lisebenzele inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, konke kuzalilungela.
Na Gedaliah el fahk nu selos, “Nga fahk na pwaye nu suwos lah kowos tia enenu in sangeng in filikowosyang nu sin mwet Babylonia. Kowos in oakwuki in facl se inge ac orekma nu sin tokosra lun Babylonia, ac ma nukewa ac fah wo nu suwos.
10 Mina ngokwami ngizahlala eMizipha ukuba ngilimele kumaKhaladiya eza kithi, kodwa lina vunani iwayini lezithelo zasehlobo kanye lamafutha, likufake ezimbizeni zokugcinela, lihlale emadolobheni eseliwaphethe.”

11 Kwathi bonke amaJuda baseMowabi, e-Amoni le-Edomi lawo wonke amanye amazwe sebezwe ukuthi inkosi yaseBhabhiloni yayitshiye insalela koJuda njalo ibeke uGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikhami indodana kaShafani, ukuba ngumbusi wabo,
In pacl sac pacna, mwet Israel nukewa su muta Moab, Ammon, Edom ac kutu pac facl saya, lohngak lah tokosra lun Babylonia el lela kutu sin mwet Israel in mutana in facl Judah, ac el srisrngilya Gedaliah elan governor lalos.

14 bathi kuye, “Kawazi na ukuthi uBhahalisi inkosi yama-Amoni usethume u-Ishumayeli indodana kaNethaniya ukuba akubulale?” Kodwa uGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikhami kakukholwanga lokho.
ac fahk nu sel, “Ya kom etu lah Tokosra Baalis lun Ammon el supwalma Ishmael elan akmusekomi?” Tusruktu Gedaliah el tiana lulalfongi.
15 UJohanani indodana kaKhareya wasekhuluma ngasese loGedaliya eMizipha esithi, “Yekela ngihambe ngiyebulala u-Ishumayeli indodana kaNethaniya, kakho ozakwazi lokho. Kungani kumele akubulale enze ukuba abakoJuda bonke ababuthene kuwe bahlakazeke, lensalela yakoJuda ibhubhe na?”
Na Johanan el tuku nu yorol in lukma ac fahk nu sel, “Lela nga in som unilya Ishmael, ac wangin mwet ac etu lah su orala. Efu ku in filfilla elan akmusekomi?

16 Kodwa uGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikhami wathi kuJohanani indodana kaKhareya, “Ungenzi into enjalo. Lokhu okutshoyo ngo-Ishumayeli akusiqiniso.”
Tusruktu Gedaliah el topuk, “Nimet oru ma sacn! Tia pwaye ma kom fahk kacl Ishmael!”
