Ermiyaas 36
1 Bara Yehooyaaqiim ilmi Yosiyaas mootii Yihuudaa ture keessa waggaa afuraffaatti dubbiin akkana jedhu Waaqayyo biraa gara Ermiyaas dhufe:
And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, that this word came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying:
2 “Kitaaba maramaa fudhadhuutii dubbii ani bara mootummaa Yosiyaasii jalqabee hamma ammaatti waaʼee Israaʼelii fi waaʼee Yihuudaa, waaʼee saboota kaan hundaas sitti dubbadhe sana hunda irratti barreessi.
Take thee a book-roll, and write upon it all the words which I have spoken to thee concerning Israel, and concerning Judah, and concerning all the nations, from the day when I began to speak to thee even to this day.
3 Tarii sabni Yihuudaa yeroo waaʼee badiisa ani isaanitti fiduuf yaade hundaa dhagaʼanitti tokkoon tokkoon isaanii karaa isaanii hamaa sana irraa ni deebiʼu taʼa; yoos ani hammina isaaniitii fi cubbuu isaanii nan dhiisaaf.”
It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do to them, and return every one from his evil way, so that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
4 Ermiyaasis Baaruk ilma Neeriyaa waame; Baaruk immoo dubbii Waaqayyo dubbate sana Ermiyaas irraa dhagaʼee kitaaba maramaa irratti barreesse.
Then Jeremiah called Baruch, the son of Neriah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of Jehovah which he had spoken to him, upon a book-roll.
5 Ermiyaas akkana jedhee Baarukin ajaje; “Ani mana Waaqayyoo seenuu dhowwameera.
And Jeremiah commanded Baruch and said: I am shut up; I cannot go into the house of Jehovah;
6 Kanaafuu ati guyyaa soomaa tokko mana Waaqayyoo dhaqiitii dubbii Waaqayyoo kan narraa dhageessee barreessite sana kitaaba maramaa irraa sabaaf dubbisi. Namoota Yihuudaa warra magaalaawwan isaanii irraa dhufan hundaaf dubbii sana dubbisi.
therefore, go thou, and read in the roll which thou hast written from my mouth the words of Jehovah, in the ears of the people, in the house of Jehovah, upon the fast-day; also in the ears of all Judah, that come out of their cities, shalt thou read them.
7 Tarii isaan kadhannaa isaanii fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhiʼeeffatanii tokkoon tokkoon isaanii karaa isaanii hamaa sana irraa ni deebiʼu taʼa; aarii fi dheekkamsi Waaqayyo saba kana irratti labse guddadhaatii.”
It may be that they will prostrate themselves in supplication before Jehovah, and will return every one from his evil way. For great is the anger and the indignation which Jehovah hath denounced against this people.
8 Baaruk ilmi Neeriyaas waan Ermiyaas raajichi isatti hime hunda ni hojjete; mana Waaqayyoo keessattis kitaaba maramaa sana irraa dubbii Waaqayyoo dubbise.
And Baruch, the son of Neriah, did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the words of Jehovah in the house of Jehovah.
9 Bara Yehooyaaqiim ilmi Yosiyaasi mootii Yihuudaa ture keessa jiʼa saglaffaa waggaa shanaffaatti guyyaan fuula Waaqayyo duratti sooman tokko saba Yerusaalem keessa jiraatuu fi warra magaalaawwan Yihuudaatii dhufan hundaaf ni labsame.
And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, that all the people in Jerusalem, and all the people that came out of the cities of Judah, proclaimed a fast before Jehovah, in Jerusalem.
10 Baarukis kutaa Gemaariyaa ilma Shaafaan barreessaa sanaa kan oobdii ol aanaa keessa balbala mana qulqullummaa, kan Karra Haaraa jedhamu biraa sana keessa dhaabatee saba mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa ture hundaaf dubbii Ermiyaas sana kitaaba maramaa irraa dubbise.
Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of Jehovah, in the chamber of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entrance of the new gate of the house of Jehovah, in the ears of all the people.
11 Miikiyaas ilmi Gemaariyaa ilma Shaafaan yeroo dubbii Waaqayyoo hunda kitaaba maramaa irraa dhagaʼetti,
And when Micah, the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard from the book all the words of Jehovah,
12 gara kutaa barreessaa kan masaraa mootummaa keessaa, iddoo qondaaltonni hundi tataaʼaa turanitti gad buʼe; isaanis Eliishaamaa barreessaa, Delaayaa ilma Shemaaʼiyaa, Elnaataan ilma Akboor, Gemaariyaa ilma Shaafaan, Zedeqiyaas ilma Hanaaniyaatii fi qondaaltota biraa hundaa dha.
he went down to the king's house, into the scribe's chamber; and lo, all the princes were sitting there, Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah, the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah, the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
13 Miikiyaas waan yeroo Baaruk kitaaba maramaa irraa uummataaf dubbisetti dhagaʼe sana hunda isaaniitti hime.
Then Micah declared to them all the words which he had heard when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
14 Qondaaltonni hundis akka inni Baarukiin, “Kitaaba maramaa uummataaf dubbifte sana fidii kottu” jedhuuf Yehuudii ilma Naataaniyaa, ilma Shelemiyaa, ilma Kuushii ergan. Kanaafuu Baaruk ilmi Neeriyaa kitaaba maramaa sana harkatti qabatee gara isaanii dhaqe.
Then all the princes sent Jehudi, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, and said, “Take in thy hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come.” So Baruch, the son of Neriah, took the roll in his hand, and came to them.
15 Jarris, “Maaloo, taaʼiitii kitaabicha nuu dubbisi” jedhaniin. Kanaafuu Baaruk kitaaba sana isaaniif dubbise.
And they said to him, “Sit down now, and read it in our ears.” And Baruch read it in their ears.
16 Isaanis yommuu dubbii kana hunda dhagaʼanitti sodaadhaan wal ilaalanii Baarukiin, “Nu waan kana hunda mootichatti himuu qabna” jedhan.
And when they had heard all the words, they looked with consternation upon one another, and they said to Baruch, “We must tell the king of all these things.”
17 Ergasii isaan Baarukiin, “Mee nutti himi; ati akkamitti waan kana hunda barreessite? Ermiyaasitu sitti himee?” jedhanii gaafatan.
And they asked Baruch, saying, “Tell us now, how didst thou write all these words from his mouth?”
18 Baarukis, “Eeyyee, Ermiyaasitu dubbii kana hunda natti hime; ani immoo qalamiidhaan kitaaba maramaa irratti barreesse” jedhee deebise.
And Baruch said to them, “With his mouth he pronounced to me all these words, and I wrote them on the book with ink.”
19 Kana irratti qondaaltonni sun Baarukiin, “Atii fi Ermiyaas dhaqaa dhokadhaa. Namni tokko iyyuu iddoo isin jirtan hin beekin” jedhan.
Then said the princes to Baruch, “Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah, and let no man know where ye are.”
20 Isaanis kitaaba maramaa sana kutaa Eliishaamaa barreessaa sanaa keessa kaaʼanii mooticha bira gara oobdii dhaqanii waan hunda isatti himan.
And they went in to the king into the court; but they laid up the roll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe, and they told all these things in the ears of the king.
21 Mootichis akka inni kitaabicha fiduuf Yihuudii erge; Yehuudiinis kutaa Eliishaamaa barreessaa sanaa keessaa kitaabicha fidee mootichaa fi qondaaltota isa bira dhaabachaa turan hundaaf dubbise.
Then the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll, and he took it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe; and Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes who stood beside the king.
22 Yeroon sun jiʼa saglaffaa ture; mootichis mana itti yeroo gannaa dabarsu keessa taaʼaa ture; ibiddi girgiraa guddaa irratti bobaʼus fuula isaa dura ture.
And the king was sitting in the winter-house, in the ninth month, and a brasier was burning before him.
23 Yommuu Yehuudiin kitaaba maramaa sana keessaa boʼoo sadii yookaan afur dubbisutti, mootichi hamma kitaabni sun guutumaan guutuutti gubatee dhumutti haaduu barreessaatiin kukkutee girgiraa ibiddaatti darbachaa ture.
And when Jehudi had read three or four sections, he [[the king]] cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire, into the brasier, until the whole roll was consumed in the fire in the brasier.
24 Taʼu illee mootichii fi tajaajiltoonni isaa kanneen dubbii kana hunda dhagaʼan hundi homaa hin sodaanne yookaan uffata isaanii hin tarsaafne.
And they were not afraid, and rent not their garments, neither the king, nor any of his servants, who heard all these words;
25 Mootichi yoo Elnaataan, Delaayaa fi Gemaariyaan akka inni kitaabicha hin gubneef isa kadhatan iyyuu isaan hin dhageenye.
and although Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah interceded with the king not to burn the roll, yet he would not hearken to them.
26 Qooda kanaa mootichi akka isaan Baaruk barreessaa sanaa fi Ermiyaas raajicha hidhaniif Yeramiʼeel ilma mootii, Seraayaa ilma Azriiʼeeliitii fi Shelemiyaa ilma Abdiʼeel ajaje. Waaqayyo garuu isaan dhoksee ture.
And the king commanded Jerahmeel, the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah, the son of Azreel, and Shelemiah, the son of Abdeel, to seize Baruch the scribe, and Jeremiah the prophet; but Jehovah had hid them.
27 Erga mootichi kitaaba maramaa kan Baaruk dubbii Ermiyaas irraa dhagaʼe itti barreesse sana gubee booddee dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara Ermiyaas dhufe:
Then came the word of Jehovah to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the roll, and the words which Baruch had written from the mouth of Jeremiah, saying:
28 “Kitaaba maramaa biraa fuudhiitii dubbii kitaabicha duraa kan Yehooyaaqiim mootichi Yihuudaa gube irra ture sana hunda itti barreessi.
Take thee another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim, king of Judah, hath burned.
29 Yehooyaaqiim mooticha Yihuudaatiinis akkana jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Ati kitaaba maramaa sana gubdee, “Ati maaliif akka mootiin Baabilon dhugumaan dhufee biyya kana balleessee namaa fi horii keessaa hobbaasu kitaabicha irratti barreessite?” jettee gaafatte.
And concerning Jehoiakim, king of Judah, thou shalt say, Thou hast burned this roll, saying, “Why hast thou written therein and said, The king of Babylon shall surely come and shall destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from it man and beast?”
30 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo waaʼee Yehooyaaqiim mooticha Yihuudaa akkana jedha: Inni nama teessoo Daawit irra taaʼu hin qabaatu; reeffi isaas gad darbatamee hoʼa guyyaatii fi qorra halkaniitti ni saaxilama.
Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim, king of Judah: He shall have not one to sit upon the throne of David; and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
31 Ani sababii hammina isaaniitiif isa, ijoollee isaatii fi tajaajiltoota isaa nan adaba; sababii isaan na dhaggeeffachuu didaniif ani balaa isaanittin fida jedhee labse sana hunda isaanitti, namoota Yerusaalem keessa jiraatanii fi namoota Yihuudaatti nan fida.’”
And I will punish him, and his offspring, and his servants, for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil which I have pronounced against them, and they have not hearkened.
32 Ergasii Ermiyaas kitaaba maramaa kan biraa fuudhee Baaruk ilma Neeriyaa barreessaa sanatti kenne; Baarukis akkuma Ermiyaas itti himetti dubbii kitaaba maramaa Yehooyaaqiim mootichi Yihuudaa ibiddaan gube sana irra ture hunda itti barreesse. Dubbiin dubbii kana fakkaattu hedduunis itti dabalameera.
Then Jeremiah took another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim had burned in the fire; and there were added to them many words of the same kind.
