< Selemaia 36 >
1 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Siosaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, naʻe hoko ʻae folofola ni kia Selemaia meia Sihova, ʻo pehē,
And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, [that] this word came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
2 “Toʻo kiate koe ʻae tohi tākai, pea tohi ai ʻae ngaahi lea kotoa pē kuo u lea ʻaki kiate koe ki ʻIsileli, mo Siuta, mo e kakai kotoa pē, talu mei he ʻaho naʻaku fua lea ai kiate koe, ʻo fai mei he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Siosaia, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spoke unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day.
3 Pea ʻe fanongo nai ʻe he fale ʻo Siuta ʻae kovi kotoa pē ʻaia ʻoku ou tokanga ke fai kiate kinautolu; koeʻuhi ke nau tafoki ʻae tangata taki taha mei hono hala kovi; koeʻuhi ke u fakamolemole ai ʻenau hia, pea mo ʻenau angahala.”
It may be the house of Judah will hear all the evil that I purpose to do unto them, that they may return every man from his evil way, and that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
4 Pea naʻe toki ui ʻe Selemaia kia Paluki ko e foha ʻo Nelia: pea tohi ʻe Paluki mei he ngutu ʻo Selemaia ʻi he tohi tākai ʻae ngaahi folofola kotoa pē ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki kiate ia.
And Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Nerijah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of Jehovah, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book.
5 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Selemaia, kia Paluki, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ou nofo pōpula au, ʻoku ʻikai te u faʻa ʻalu ki he fale ʻo Sihova:
And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up, I cannot go into the house of Jehovah; but go thou in,
6 Ko ia ke ke ʻalu koe, pea lau ʻi he tohi, ʻaia kuo ke tohi mei hoku ngutu, ʻae ngaahi folofola ʻa Sihova ke fanongo ʻae kakai ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ʻaukai: pea ke ke lau foki ia ki Siuta kotoa pē, ʻakinautolu kuo haʻu mei honau ngaahi kolo.
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; and thou shalt also read them in the ears of all Judah that come from their cities.
7 Heiʻilo pe te nau fai ʻenau lotu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea taki taha tafoki mei hono hala kovi: he ʻoku lahi ʻae houhau mo e tuputāmaki kuo fakahā ʻe Sihova ki he kakai ni.”
It may be they will present their supplication before Jehovah, and that they will return every one from his evil way; for great is the anger and the fury that Jehovah hath pronounced against this people.
8 Pea naʻe fai ʻe Paluki ko e foha ʻo Nelia ʻo hangē ko e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fekau ʻe Selemaia ko e palōfita kiate ia, ʻo ne lau ʻi he tohi ʻae ngaahi folofola ʻa Sihova ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova.
And Baruch the son of Nerijah did according to all that the prophet Jeremiah commanded him, reading in the book the words of Jehovah in Jehovah's house.
9 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi hono nima taʻu ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Siosaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea ʻi hono hiva māhina naʻa nau fanongonongo ʻae ʻaukai ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻi Selūsalema, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē naʻe haʻu mei he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta ki Selūsalema.
And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, in the ninth month, [that] they proclaimed a fast before Jehovah, for all the people in Jerusalem, and for all the people that came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem.
10 Pea naʻe toki lau ʻe Paluki ʻi he tohi ʻae ngaahi lea ʻa Selemaia ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, ʻi he potu fale ʻo Kemalia ko e foha ʻo Safani ko e tangata tohi, ʻi he potu lahi, ʻi he hūʻanga ʻoe matapā foʻou ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe fanongo ʻae kakai kotoa pē.
And Baruch read 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 upper court, at the entry of the new gate of the house of Jehovah, in the ears of all the people.
11 Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻa Mikaia ko e foha ʻo Kemalia, ko e foha ʻo Safani, ki he ngaahi folofola kotoa pē ʻa Sihova mei he tohi,
And Micah the son of Gemariah the son of Shaphan heard out of the book all the words of Jehovah;
12 Naʻe toki ʻalu hifo ia ki he fale ʻoe tuʻi, ki he potu fale ʻoe kau tangata tohi: pea vakai, ko e houʻeiki kotoa pē naʻe nofo ai, ko ʻIlisama ko e tangata tohi, mo Telaia, ko e foha ʻo Simaia, pea mo Elinatani ko e foha ʻo ʻAkipoa, mo Kemalia ko e foha ʻo Safani, mo Setikia ko e foha ʻo Hanania, pea mo e houʻeiki kotoa pē.
and he went down to the king's house, into the scribe's chamber, and behold, 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 Pea naʻe fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻe Mikaia ʻae ngaahi lea naʻa ne fanongo ki ai, ʻi he lau ʻe Paluki mei he tohi ʻi he telinga ʻoe kakai.
And Micah declared unto them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read in the book in the ears of the people.
14 Ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe he houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻa Sehuti, ko e foha ʻo Netania, ko e foha ʻo Selemaia, ko e foha ʻo Kusi, kia Paluki, ʻo pehē, “Toʻo ʻi ho nima ʻae tohi tākai ʻaia naʻa ke lau ʻi he telinga ʻoe kakai, pea ke ʻalu ange.” Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Paluki ko e foha ʻo Nelia ʻae tohi tākai ʻi hono nima, pea haʻu kiate kinautolu.
And all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thy hand the roll in which thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. And Baruch the son of Nerijah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.
15 Pea naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, “Nofo ki lalo, pea lau ia ʻi homau telinga.” Pea naʻe lau ia ʻe Paluki ka nau fanongo.
And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. And Baruch read [it] in their ears.
16 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻenau fanongo ki he ngaahi lea kotoa pē, naʻa nau fesiofaki ʻi he ilifia, pea nau pehē kia Paluki, “Ko e moʻoni te mau fakahā ki he tuʻi ʻae ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē.”
And it came to pass, when they heard all the words, they turned in fear one toward another, and said unto Baruch, We will certainly report to the king all these words.
17 Pea naʻa nau fehuʻi kia Paluki, ʻo pehē, “Fakahā mai eni, naʻa ke tohi fēfē ʻae ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē mei hono ngutu?”
And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words from his mouth?
18 Pea pehēange ʻe Paluki kiate kinautolu, “Naʻa ne lea ʻaki mei hono ngutu ʻae ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē kiate au, pea u tohi ʻaki ia ʻae vaitohi ʻi he tohi.”
And Baruch said unto them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, and I wrote [them] with ink in the book.
19 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he houʻeiki kia Paluki, “ʻAlu, ʻo fufū koe, ʻa koe mo Selemaia; pea ʻoua naʻa ʻilo ʻe ha tangata pe ʻoku mo ʻi fē.”
And the princes said unto Baruch, Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah; that none may know where ye are.
20 Pea naʻa nau ʻalu ki he tuʻi ki he fale fakaʻeiʻeiki, ka nau tuku ʻae tohi tākai ʻi he potu ʻi ʻolunga ʻo ʻIlisama ko e tangata tohi, pea naʻe fakahā ʻae ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻi he telinga ʻoe tuʻi.
And they went in unto the king into the court, but they laid up the roll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe; and they told all the words in the ears of the king.
21 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi kia Sehuti ke ʻomi ʻae tohi tākai: pea ne ʻomi ia mei he potu fale ʻo ʻIlisama ko e tangata tohi. Pea lau ia ʻe Sehuti ʻi he telinga ʻoe tuʻi, pea ʻi he telinga ʻoe houʻeiki kotoa pē naʻe tutuʻu fakataha mo e tuʻi.
And the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll, and he fetched 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 that stood beside the king.
22 Pea naʻe ʻafio ʻae tuʻi ʻi he fale mumū ʻi hono hiva ʻoe māhina: pea naʻe ʻi hono ʻao ʻae afi kakaha ʻi he matanavu.
Now the king was sitting in the winter-house in the ninth month, and with the fire-pan burning before him.
23 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili hono lau ʻe Sehuti ʻae vahe ʻe tolu pe fā, naʻa ne hifi ʻaki ia ʻae hele, pea laku ia ki he afi naʻe ʻi he matanavu, pea fakaʻauha ʻae tohi tākai kotoa pē ʻi he afi naʻe ʻi he matanavu.
And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four columns, he cut it with the scribe's knife, and cast it into the fire that was in the pan until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was in the pan.
24 Ka naʻe ʻikai te nau manavahē, pe mahaehae honau kofu, ʻae tuʻi, pe ko ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki naʻe fanongo ki he ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē.
And they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, [neither] the king nor any of his servants that heard all these words.
25 Ka naʻe kole ʻa Elinatani mo Telaia mo Kemalia ki he tuʻi ke ʻoua naʻa tutu ʻae tohi tākai: ka naʻe ʻikai te ne fie fanongo kiate kinautolu.
Moreover, Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the roll; but he would not hear them.
26 Ka naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi kia Silamili ko e foha ʻo Hameleki, pea mo Selaia ko e foha ʻo ʻAsilieli, pea mo Selemaia ko e foha ʻo ʻApitili, ke puke ʻa Paluki ko e tangata tohi mo Selemaia ko e palōfita: ka naʻe fufū ʻakinaua ʻe Sihova.
And the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but Jehovah hid them.
27 Pea naʻe toki hoko ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Selemaia, hili hono tutu ʻae tohi tākai ʻe he tuʻi, pea mo e ngaahi lea ʻaia naʻe tohi ʻe Paluki mei he ngutu ʻo Selemaia ʻo pehē;
And after that the king had burned the roll, and the words that Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
28 “Ke ke toe toʻo ʻae tohi tākai ʻe taha, pea tohi ki ai ʻae ngaahi lea kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe tuʻu ʻi he ʻuluaki tohi tākai, ʻaia naʻe tutu ʻe Sihoiakimi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta.
Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.
29 Pea te ke lea ʻo pehē kia Sihoiakimi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; “Naʻa ke tutu ʻae tohi tākai ni, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā naʻa ke tohi ai? ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni ʻe haʻu ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻo fakaʻauha ʻae fonua ni pea fakatangaʻi ʻae tangata pea mo e manu?’””
And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thus saith Jehovah: Thou hast burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from it man and beast?
30 Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova kia Sihoiakimi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta; “ʻE ʻikai te ne maʻu ha taha ke nofo ʻi he nofoʻanga fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻo Tevita: pea ʻe lī atu hono ʻangaʻanga ki he pupuha ʻi he ʻaho, pea ki he momoko ʻi he pō.
Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: He shall have none 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 Pea te u tautea ia mo hono hako mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki koeʻuhi ko ʻenau angahala; pea te u ʻomi kiate kinautolu, pea mo e kakai ʻo Selūsalema, pea mo e kau tangata ʻo Siuta, ʻae kovi kotoa pē ʻaia kuo u fakahā kiate kinautolu: ka naʻe ʻikai te nau fanongo.”
And I will visit their iniquity upon him, and upon his seed, and upon his servants; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; and they have not hearkened.
32 Pea naʻe toki toʻo ʻe Selemaia ʻae tohi tākai ʻe taha, pea foaki ia kia Paluki ko e tangata tohi, ko e foha ʻo Nelia; ʻaia naʻe tohi mei he ngutu ʻo Selemaia, ʻae ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻoe tohi ʻaia naʻe tutu ʻi he afi ʻe Sihoiakimi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta: pea naʻe fakalahi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea pehē kiate kinautolu.
And Jeremiah took another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Nerijah; and he wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the book that Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and there were added besides unto them many like words.
