Yeremia 39
1 Katika mwaka wa tisa na mwezi wa kumi wa Sedekia mfalme wa Yuda, Nebukadreza mfalme wa Babeli alikuja pamoja na jeshi lake lote dhidi ya Yerusalem na kuizingira.
In the nynethe yeer of Sedechie, kyng of Juda, in the tenthe monethe, Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, and al his oost cam to Jerusalem, and thei bisegiden it.
2 Katika mwaka wa kumi na moja na mwezi wa nne wa Sekeia, siku ya tisa ya mwezi, mji uliharibiwa.
Forsothe in the enleuenthe yeer of Sedechie, in the fourthe monethe, in the fyuethe day of the monethe, the citee was opened;
3 Kisha maafisa wote wa mfalme wa Babeli walikuja na kukaa kwenye lango la katikati: Nergali Sharezeri, Samgari Nebo, na Sarsechimu, afisa muhimu. Nerga Sharezeri alikuwa afisa mkuu na wote waliobaki maafisa wa mfalme wa Babeli.
and alle the princes of the kyng of Babiloyne entriden, and saten in the myddil yate, Veregel, Fererer, Semegar, Nabusarrachym, Rapsaces, Neregel, Sereser, Rebynag, and alle othere princes of the kyng of Babiloyne.
4 Ilitokea kwamba wakati Sedekia, mfalme wa Yuda, na wanaume wapiganaji wake wote walipowaona, walikimbia. Walitoka nje usiku toka kwenye mji kwa njia ya bustani ya mfalme, kupitia lango la kati la kuta mbili. Mfalme alitoka nje katika mwelekeo wa Arabah.
And whanne Sedechie, the kyng of Juda, and alle the men werriouris hadden seien hem, thei fledden, and yeden out bi niyt fro the citee, bi the weie of the gardyn of the kyng, and bi the yate that was bitwixe twei wallis; and thei yeden out to the weie of desert.
5 Lakini jeshi la Wakaldayo walimfatilia na kumpata Sedekia kwenye tambarare za mto Yordani karibu na Yeriko. Kisha walimshika na kumleta kwa Nebukadreza, mfalme wa Babeli, Riblah kwenye nchi ya Hamath, ambapo Nebukadreza alipitisha sentensi juu yake.
Forsothe the oost of Caldeis pursueden hem, and thei token Sedechie in the feeld of wildirnesse of Jericho; and thei token hym, and brouyten to Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, in Reblatha, which is in the lond of Emath; and Nabugodonosor spak domes to hym.
6 Mfalme wa Babeli alimchinja binti wa Sedekia mbele ya macho yake huko Ribla. Pia aliwachinja wanaume wote wa heshima wa Yuda.
And the kyng of Babiloyne killide the sones of Sedechye in Reblatha, bifor hise iyen; and the kyng of Babyloyne killide alle the noble men of Juda.
7 Kisha alingoa macho ya Sedekia na kumfunga mnyororo wa shaba ili kusudi kumpeleka Babeli.
Also he puttide out the iyen of Sedechie, and boond hym in feteris, that he schulde be led in to Babiloyne.
8 Kisha Wakaldayo walichoma nyumba ya mfalme na nyumba za watu. Pia walivunja kuta za Yerusalem.
And Caldeis brenten with fier the hous of the kyng, and the hous of the comun puple, and distrieden the wal of Jerusalem.
9 Nebukadreza, nahodha wa walinzi wa mfalme, waliwachukua katika mateka watu wengine waliobaki katika mji. Hii ilijumuisha watu waliotoka jangwa kwenda Wakaldayo na watu wengine walioachwa katika mji.
And Nabusardan, the maister of knyytis, translatide in to Babiloyne the residues of the puple, that dwelliden in the citee, and the fleeris awei, that hadden fled ouer to hym, and the superflue men of the comyn puple, that weren left.
10 Lakini Nebukadreza nahodha wa walinzi wa mfalme aliwaruhusu watu maskini ambayo hawakuwa na chochote wao kubaki katika chi ya Yuda. Aliwapa mashamba ya mizabibu na maeneo katika siku ile.
And Nabusardan, the maistir of knyytis, lefte in the lond of Juda, of the puple of pore men, and yaf to hem vyneris and cisternes in that dai.
11 Nebukadreza mfalme wa Babeli alikuwa ametoa amri kuhusu Yeremia kwa Nebuzaradani nahodha wa walinzi wa mfalme. Alikuwa amesema,
Forsothe Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, hadde comaundid of Jeremye to Nabusardan, maister of chyualrie, and seide,
12 “Mchukue na umjali. Usimdhuru. Fanya kwa ajili yake chochote anachokuambia.”
Take thou him, and sette thin iyen on hym, and do thou no thing of yuel to him; but as he wole, so do thou to hym.
13 Basi Nebuzaradani nahodha wa walinzi wa mfalme, Nebushazbani mkuu wa matoashi, Nergali Sharezeri afisa mkuu, na wote maafisa wa muhimu wa mfalme wa Babeli walituma watu nje.
Therfor Nabusardan, the prynce of chyualrie, sente Nabu, and Lesban, and Rapsases, and Veregel, and Sereser, and Rebynag, and alle the principal men of the kyng of Babiloyne,
14 Watu wao walimchukua Yeremia kutoka uwanja wa mlinzi na kumkabidhi kwa Gedalia mwana wa Ahikami mwana wa Shafani, kumchua nyumbani, basi Yeremia alibaki miongoni mwa watu.
senten, and token Jeremye fro the porche of the prisoun, and bitokun hym to Godolie, the sone of Aicham, sone of Saphan, that he schulde entre in to the hous, and dwelle among the puple.
15 Sasa neno la Yahwe lilikuwa limekuja kwa Yeremia wakati alipokuwa chini ya kifungo kwenye uwanja wa mlinzi, na alisema,
Forsothe the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye, whanne he was closid in the porche of the prisoun, and seide,
16 “Zungumza kwa Ebedi Meleki Mkushi na sema, 'Yahwe wa majeshi, Mungu wa Israel, asema hivi: Ona, Nimekaribia kubeba maneno yangu dhidi ya mji huu kwa ajili ya janga na si kwa uzuri. Kwa kuwa yatakuwa kweli mbele yako katika siku hiyo.
Go thou, and seie to Abdemelech Ethiopien, and speke thou, The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal brynge my wordis on this citee in to yuel, and not in to good; and tho schulen be in thi siyt in that dai.
17 Lakini nitakuokoa katika siku hiyo - hili ni tamko la Yahwe - na hautatiwa katika mkono wa wanaume ambayo unawaogopa.
And Y schal delyuere thee in that day, seith the Lord, and thou schalt not be bitakun in to the hondis of men, whiche thou dreddist;
18 Kwa kuwa nitakuokoa hakika. Hautaanguka kwa upanga. Utatoroka pamoja na maisha yako, kwani unanitumaini - hili lilikuwa tamko la Yahwe.”
but Y delyuerynge schal delyuere thee, and thou schalt not falle doun bi swerd; but thi soule schal be in to helthe to thee, for thou haddist trist in me, seith the Lord.
