< Yeremia 42 >
1 Kisha amri wote wa jeshi na Yonathan mwana wa Karea, Jezania mwana wa Hoshaia, na watu wote kutoka mdogo kwa mkubwa walimkaribia Yeremia nabii.
And alle the princes of werriours neiyiden, and Johannan, the sone of Caree, and Jeconye, the sone of Josie, and the residue comyn puple, fro a litil man `til to a greet man.
2 Walisema naye, “Acha maombi yetu yaje mbele yako. Omba kwa ajili yetu kwa Yahwe Mungu wako kwa ajili ya watu hawa ambao wanabaki kwani tuko wachache katika idadi, kama unavyoona.
And thei seiden to Jeremye, the profete, Oure preier falle in thi siyt, and preie thou for vs to thi Lord God, for alle these remenauntis; for we ben left a fewe of manye, as thin iyen biholden vs; and thi Lord God telle to vs the weie,
3 Muulize Yahwe Mungu wako atuambia sisi njia yakuendea na nini tufanye.”
bi which we schulen go, and the word which we schulen do.
4 Basi Yeremia nabii alisema nao, “Nimewasikia, Tazama, Nitaomba kwa Yahwe Mungu wenu kama mlivyoomba. Vyovyote Yahwe ananijibu, Nitawambia. Sitawaficha chochote ninyi.”
Forsothe Jeremye, the profete, seide to hem, Y haue herd; lo! Y preye to oure Lord God, bi youre wordis; Y schal schewe to you ech word, what euere word the Lord schal answere to me, nether Y schal hide ony thing fro you.
5 Walisema na Yeremia, “Na Yawhe awe shahidi mkweli na mwaminifu dhidi yenu, kama hatutafanya kila kitu ambacho Yahwe Mungu wenu anatuambia kufanya.
And thei seiden to Jeremye, The Lord be witnesse of treuthe and of feith bitwixe vs; if not bi ech word, in which thi Lord God schal sende thee to vs, so we schulen do, whether it be good ether yuel.
6 Hata kama ni vizuri au vibaya, tutatii sauti ya Yahwe Mungu wetu, ambaye tunawatuma ninyi, ili kwamba iwe vizuri pamoja nasi wakati tunatii sauti ya Yahwe Mungu wetu.”
We schulen obeie to the vois of oure Lord God, to whom we senden thee, that it be wel to vs, whanne we han herd the vois of oure Lord God.
7 Basi ilitokea kwamba baada ya siku kumi, neno la Yahwe lilikuja kwa Yeremia.
Forsothe whanne ten daies weren fillid, the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye.
8 Kwa hiyo Yeremia alimwita Yonathan mwana wa Karea na amri wote jeshi pamoja naye, na watu wote kutoka mdogo kwa mkubwa.
And he clepide Johannan, the sone of Caree, and alle the princes of werriours, that weren with hym, and al the puple fro the leste `til to the mooste; and he seide to hem,
9 Na alisema nao, “Yahwe, Mungu wa Israel, ambaye umenituma mimi ili niweze kuweka maombi yako mbele zake. Yahwe asema hivi,
The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, to whom ye senten me, that Y schulde mekeli sette forth youre preyeris in his siyt.
10 Kama mtarudi na kuishi katika nchi hii, basi nitawajenga na sitawararua chini; Nitapanda na sitawangoa, kwa kuwa nitageuza maafa ambayo nimeleta juu yako.
If ye resten, and dwellen in this lond, Y schal bilde you, and Y schal not distrie; Y schal plaunte, and Y schal not drawe out; for now Y am plesid on the yuel which Y dide to you.
11 Msimugope mfalme wa Babeli, ambaye mnamuogopa. Msimuogope-hili ni tamko la Yahwe kwani niko pamoja nanyi kuwahifadhi na kuwaokoa toka mkono wake.
Nyle ye drede of the face of the kyng of Babiloyne, whom ye `that ben ferdful, dreden; nyle ye drede hym, seith the Lord, for Y am with you, to make you saaf, and to delyuere fro his hond.
12 Kwa kuwa nitawapa rehema. Nitakuwa na huruma juu yenu, na nitawarudisha kwenye nchi yenu.
And Y schal yyue mercies to you, and Y schal haue merci on you, and Y schal make you dwelle in youre lond.
13 Lakini tudhani kusema kwamba, “Hatutakaa katika nchi hii”- kama hamtasikiliza sauti yangu, sauti ya Yahwe Mungu wenu.
Forsothe if ye seien, We schulen not dwelle in this lond, nether we schulen here the vois of oure Lord God, and seie,
14 Tudhani kwamba mnasema, “Hapana! Tutaenda kwenye nchi ya Misri, ambayo hatutaona vita yoyote, ambayo hatutasikia sauti ya tarumbeta, na hatutaona njaa ya chakula. Tutaishi huko.”
Nai, but we schulen go to the lond of Egipt, where we schulen not se batel, and schulen not here the noise of trumpe, and we schulen not suffre hungur, and there we schulen dwelle;
15 Sasa sikiliza neno hili la Yahwe, wewe mabaki ya Yuda. Yahwe wa majeshi, Mungu wa Israel, asema hivi, 'Kama kweli mtatoka kwenda Misri, kwenda na kuishi huko,
for this thing, ye remenauntis of Juda, here now the word of the Lord. The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, If ye setten youre face, for to entre in to Egipt, and if ye entren,
16 basi upanga ambao mnauogopa utawapita huko kwenye nchi ya Misri. Njaa ambayo mnawasiwasi nayo itawafatilia huko Misri. Na mtakufa huko.
to dwelle there, the swerd whiche ye dreden schal take you there in the lond of Egipt, and the hungur for which ye ben angwischid schal cleue to you in Egipt; and there ye schulen die.
17 Basi itatokea kwamba wanaume wote waliondoka kwenda Misri kuishi huko watakufa kwa upanga, njaa, au pigo. Hapatakuwa na mwathirika wao, hakuna atakayetoroka maafa ambayo nitaleta juu yao.
And alle the men that settiden her face, to entre in to Egipt, and to dwelle there, schulen die bi swerd, and hungur, and pestilence; no man of hem schal dwelle stille, nether schal aschape fro the face of yuel, which Y schal brynge on hem.
18 Kwa kuwa Yahwe wa majeshi, Mungu wa Israel, asema hivi: Kama gadhabu yangu na hasira yangu imemwanga juu ya wakazi wa Yerusalem, kwa njia hiyo hasira yangu itamwangwa juu yenu kama mtaenda Misri. Mtakuwa sababu ya hasira na hofu, sababu la kuzungumza laana, na kitu kisichokuwa na heshima. Na hamtaona eneo hili tena.”
For why the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, As my strong veniaunce and myn indignacioun is wellid togidere on the dwelleris of Jerusalem, so myn indignacioun schal be wellid togidere on you, whanne ye han entrid in to Egipt; and ye schulen be in to sweryng, and in to wondring, and in to cursyng, and in to schenschipe; and ye schulen no more se this place.
19 Basi Yeremia alisema, “Yahwe amezungumza kuhusu ninyi - mabaki ya Yuda. Msiende Misri! Unajua kwa hakika kwamba nimekuwa shahidi dhidi yenu leo.
The word of the Lord is on you, ye remenauntis of Juda; nyle ye entre in to Egipt; ye witinge schulen wite, that Y haue witnessid to you to dai;
20 Kwa kuwa mmejidanganya vibaya wenyewe wakati mliponituma mimi kwenda kwa Yahwe Mungu wenu na kusema, 'Omba kwa Yahwe Mungu wetu kwa ajili yetu. Kila kitu ambacho Yahwe Mungu wetu asema, tuambie, na tutaibeba.'
for ye han disseyued youre soulis, for ye senten me to youre Lord God, and seiden, Preye thou for vs to oure Lord God, and bi alle thingis what euer thingis oure Lord schal seie to thee, so telle thou to vs, and we schulen do.
21 Kwa kuwa nimekwisha toa taarifa kwako leo, lakini hajusikiliza sauti ya Yahwe Mungu wenu au kwa chochote kuhusu ambacho alinituma mimi kwako.
And Y telde to you to dai, and ye herden not the vois of youre Lord God, on alle thingis for whiche he sente me to you.
22 Basi sasa, utajua kwa hakika kwamba utakufa kwa upanga, njaa, na pigo katika eneo ambalo ulitamani kwenda kuishi.”
Now therfor ye witynge schulen wite, for ye schulen die bi swerd, and hungur, and pestilence, in the place to which ye wolden entre, to dwelle there.
