Ermiyaas 39
1 Akki Yerusaalem itti fudhatamte kana ture: Bara Zedeqiyaa Mooticha Yihuudaa keessa jiʼa kurnaffaa waggaa saglaffaatti, Nebukadnezar mootichi Baabilon loltoota isaa hunda wajjin duulee Yerusaalemin marse.
And it came to pass, when Jerusalem was taken, (in the ninth year of Zedekiah, the king of Judah, in the tenth month, came Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, and all his army, against Jerusalem, and besieged it;
2 Bara Zedeqiyaa keessa bultii saglaffaa jiʼa afuraffaa waggaa kudha tokkoffaatti, dallaan magaalaa sanaa ni cabsame.
and in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month, was the city broken into, )
3 Ergasii qondaaltonni mootii Baabilon hundi dhufanii Karra Giddu Galeessa dura tataaʼan; isaanis Nergaal-Sharezer namicha Samgaar, Neboo-Sarsekiim ajajaa hangafa, Nergaal-Sharezer shuumii hangafaa fi qondaaltota mootii Baabilon hundaa dha.
that all the chieftains of the king of Babylon came, and stationed themselves in the middle gate, Nergalsharezer, Samgarnebo, Sarsechim, prefect of the eunuchs, Nergalsharezer, prefect of the magians, and all the rest of the princes of the king of Babylon.
4 Zedeqiyaa Mooticha Yihuudaatii fi loltoonni hundi yommuu jara arganitti ni baqatan; isaanis halkaniin karaa biqiltuu mootichaatiin magaalaa keessaa baʼanii karra dallaa lamaan gidduutiin gara Arabbaatti qajeelan.
And when Zedekiah, the king of Judah, and all the men of war, saw them, they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the king's garden, through the gate between the two walls; and they went forth toward the plain.
5 Loltoonni Baabilonotaa garuu isaan ariʼanii dirree Yerikoo irratti Zedeqiyaa in qaqqaban. Isaanis isa qabanii Riiblaa Hamaati keessatti gara Nebukadnezar mooticha Baabilonitti geessan; mootichis achitti isatti mure.
But the army of the Chaldaeans pursued them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and they took him, and brought him to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he gave judgment concerning him.
6 Mootiin Baabilonis achuma Riiblaatti ijuma isaa duratti ilmaan Zedeqiyaa gorraʼee namoota Yihuudaa bebeekamoo hundas ajjeese.
And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah at Riblah before his eyes; and all the nobles of Judah did the king of Babylon slay.
7 Innis ergasii Zedeqiyaa keessaa ija isaa baasee Baabilonitti isa geessuuf foncaa naasiitiin isa hidhe.
And he put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, to carry him to Babylon.
8 Baabilononnis masaraa mootiitii fi manneen sabaatti ibidda qabsiisanii dallaa Yerusaalem diigan.
And the Chaldaeans burned the king's house, and the houses of the people, with fire, and they broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
9 Nebuzaradaan ajajaan eegumsaa, namoota magaalaa keessatti hafan, namoota isatti harka kennatanii fi namoota kaan wajjin boojiʼee Baabilonitti geesse.
And the residue of the people that remained in the city, and the deserters who had come over to him, the residue of the people that remained, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the guard, carried away to Babylon.
10 Nebuzaradaan ajajaan eegumsaa sun garuu hiyyeeyyii homaa hin qabne tokko tokko biyya Yihuudaatti hambise; innis yeroo sanatti iddoo dhaabaa wayiniitii fi lafa qotiisaa kenneef.
But the poor of the people, who had nothing, Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, left in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.
11 Nebukadnezar mootichi Baabilon akkana jedhee karaa Nebuzaradaan ajajaa eegumsaa sanaatiin waaʼee Ermiyaas ajaja kenne:
And Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, gave charge concerning Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, saying,
12 “Isa fuudhiitii akka gaarii kunuunsi; waan inni barbaadu kam iyyuu godhiif malee isa hin miidhin.”
“Take him, and have thine eyes upon him, and do him no harm; but do to him even as he shall say to you.”
13 Kanaafuu Nebuzaradaan ajajaan eegumsaa sun Nebuushazbaan shuumiin hangafti, Nergaal-Sharezer shuumiin ol aanaan, akkasumas qondaaltonni mootii Baabilon kaan hundi
Then sent Nebuzaradan, the captain of the guard, and Nebushasban, prefect of the eunuchs, and Nergalsharezer, prefect of the magians, and all the princes of the king of Babylon,
14 ergamanii oobdii eegumsaa keessaa Ermiyaasin baasisan. Isaanis akka Gedaaliyaas ilmi Shaafaan, ilmi Ahiiqaam mana isaatti isa geessuuf imaanaa itti kennan. Ermiyaasis akkasiin saba ofii isaa keessa jiraate.
they sent and took Jeremiah out of the court of the prison, and committed him to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should carry him home; and he dwelt among the people.
15 Utuma Ermiyaas oobdii eegumsaa keessatti hidhamee jiruu dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara isaa dhufe:
Now the word of Jehovah had come to Jeremiah, while he was shut up in the court of the prison, saying:
16 “Dhaqiitii Ebeed-Melek namicha Itoophiyaa sanaan akkana jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: Ani dubbii koo waan tolaadhaaf utuu hin taʼin waan hamaadhaaf magaalaa kana irratti fiixaan nan baasa. Yeroo sanatti wanni kun ijuma kee duratti fiixaan baʼa.
Go and speak to Ebedmelech, the Ethiopian, and say: Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I bring my words upon this city for evil and not for good, and with thine own eyes shalt thou see it in that day.
17 Ani garuu gaafas sin oolcha, jedha Waaqayyo; ati dabarfamtee warra sodaattu sanatti hin kennamtu.
But I will deliver thee in that day, saith Jehovah; and thou shalt not be given into the hand of the men of whom thou art afraid.
18 Ani sin baasa; ati waan na amanattuuf lubbuu keetiin baata malee goraadeedhaan hin duutu, jedha Waaqayyo.’”
But I will surely deliver thee, and thou shalt not fall by the sword, but thy life shall be to thee as a prey; because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith Jehovah.
