4 Na Yeremia de ne ho a otumi di nnipa no mu akɔneaba, efisɛ na wɔmfaa no ntoo afiase ɛ.
Na rĩrĩ, ihinda rĩu Jeremia aarĩ na wĩyathi wa gũceeranga gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ, nĩgũkorwo ndaakoretwo aikĩtio njeera.
5 Na Farao asraafo afi Misraim reba, na Babiloniafo a wɔatua Yerusalem no tee wɔn nka no, wofii Yerusalem.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mbũtũ cia ita cia Firaũni nĩcioimagarĩte kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri, na rĩrĩa andũ a Babuloni arĩa maarigiicĩirie Jerusalemu maiguire ũhoro wacio, makĩhũndũka, makĩehera kũu Jerusalemu.
6 Na Awurade asɛm baa odiyifo Yeremia nkyɛn se,
Hĩndĩ ĩyo ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova ĩgĩkinyĩra Jeremia ũcio mũnabii, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ,
7 “Sɛɛ na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, se: Monka nkyerɛ Yudahene a, ɔsomaa mo se mummebisa me hɔ biribi no se, ‘Farao asraafo a wofii adi sɛ wɔrebɛboa mo no bɛsan akɔ wɔn ankasa asase, Misraim so.
“Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, ekuuga atĩrĩ: Ĩra mũthamaki wa Juda, ũcio ũgũtũmĩte ũũke ũhooe kĩrĩra harĩ niĩ, atĩrĩ, ‘Mbũtũ cia ita cia Firaũni icio irooka gũgũteithia-rĩ, nĩigũcooka bũrũri wacio, kũu bũrũri wa Misiri.
8 Na Babiloniafo no bɛsan abɛtow ahyɛ saa kuropɔn yi so; wobegye na wɔahyew kurow no dwerɛbee.’
Hĩndĩ ĩyo nao andũ a Babuloni nĩmagacooka gũkũ na matharĩkĩre itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene, marĩtunyane na marĩcine na mwaki.’
9 “Sɛ Awurade se ni: Monnnaadaa mo ho nsusuw sɛ, ‘Ampa ara Babiloniafo no befi yɛn so akɔ.’ Wɔrenkɔ!
“Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Tigai kwĩheenia, mũgĩĩciiria atĩrĩ, ‘Andũ a Babuloni ti-itherũ nĩmegũtigana na ithuĩ matweherere.’ Matigeeka ũguo!
10 Sɛ mudi Babiloniafo asraafo a wɔatow ahyɛ mo so no so ma ɛka apirafo wɔ wɔn ntamadan mu mpo a, wobefi adi abɛhyew kuropɔn yi dwerɛbee.”
O na mũngĩhoota mbũtũ ciothe cia ita cia andũ a Babuloni icio iramũtharĩkĩra, na gũtuĩke atĩ no andũ arĩa matiihangĩtio matigĩtwo hema-inĩ ciao-rĩ, no moime kũu hema-inĩ na macine itũũra rĩĩrĩ na mwaki.”
11 Babilonia asraafo no fii Yerusalem, esiane Farao asraafo no nti akyiri no,
Thuutha wa mbũtũ icio cia ita cia andũ a Babuloni kwehera kũu Jerusalemu nĩ ũndũ wa mbũtũ cia Firaũni,
12 Yeremia yɛɛ ahoboa sɛ ɔrefi kuropɔn no mu, akɔ Benyamin mantam mu akogye nʼagyapade mu kyɛfa wɔ nkurɔfo a wɔwɔ hɔ no nkyɛn.
Jeremia nĩoimagarire kuuma itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene nĩguo athiĩ bũrũri wa Benjamini akenyiitĩre igai rĩake rĩa gĩthaka gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ arĩa maarĩ kuo.
13 Nanso okoduu Benyamin Pon ano no, awɛmfo no so panyin a wɔfrɛ no Yiria a ɔyɛ Selemia babarima ne Hanania nena kyeree no kae se, “Woreguan agya yɛn akɔ Babiloniafo afa!”
No rĩrĩa aakinyire Kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa Benjamini, mũnene wa arangĩri ũrĩa wetagwo Irija mũrũ wa Shelemia, mũrũ wa Hanania, akĩmũnyiita, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩ kũũra ũroora ũthiĩ ũkeneane kũrĩ andũ a Babuloni!”
14 Yeremia buae se, “Ɛnyɛ nokware. Merenguan nkɔ Babiloniafo afa.” Nanso Yiria antie, na mmom ɔkyeree Yeremia de no kɔmaa ne mpanyimfo.
Jeremia akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Aca ũguo tiguo! Niĩ ti kũũra ndĩroora ngeneane kũrĩ andũ a Babuloni.” No Irija akĩrega kũmũthikĩrĩria; handũ ha ũguo akĩnyiita Jeremia, akĩmũtwara kũrĩ anene.
15 Wɔn bo fuw Yeremia, na wɔma wɔboroo no de no too afiase wɔ ɔkyerɛwfo Yonatan fi a na wɔde ayɛ afiase no.
Anene acio nĩmarakarĩire Jeremia, na magĩathana ahũũrwo na ahingĩrwo nyũmba ya Jonathani ũrĩa mwandĩki, ĩrĩa maatuĩte njeera.
16 Wɔde Yeremia too asase ase afiase, ma odii nna bebree wɔ hɔ.
Nake Jeremia agĩtoonyio mungu-inĩ warĩ kanyũmba ga thĩinĩ mũno kũu kĩoho-inĩ, kũrĩa aikarire matukũ maingĩ.
17 Akyiri no, ɔhene Sedekia soma ma wɔkɔfaa no baa ahemfi, ɛhɔ na obisaa no wɔ kokoa mu se, “Woanya asɛm bi afi Awurade nkyɛn ana?” Yeremia buae se, “Yiw, wɔde wo bɛma Babiloniahene.”
Na thuutha ũcio Mũthamaki Zedekia agĩtũmana areehwo kũu nyũmba-inĩ ya ũthamaki. Arĩ kũu, mũthamaki akĩmũũria na hitho atĩrĩ, “Hihi nĩ harĩ ndũmĩrĩri yumĩte kũrĩ Jehova?” Nake Jeremia akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩ kũrĩ; wee nĩũkaneanwo moko-inĩ ma mũthamaki wa Babuloni.”
18 Afei Yeremia bisaa ɔhene no se, “Dɛn bɔne na mayɛ atia wo, anaa wʼadwumayɛfo anaa nnipa yi a enti wɔde me ato afiase yi?
Ningĩ Jeremia akĩĩra Mũthamaki Zedekia atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ ũrĩkũ ngwĩhĩtie we mwene, kana ndungata ciaku, o na kana andũ aya, nĩguo njikio njeera?
19 Ɛhe na wʼadiyifo a wɔhyɛɛ nkɔm kyerɛɛ wo se, ‘Babiloniahene rentow nhyɛ wo so anaa asase yi so’ no wɔ?
Marĩ ha anabii acio aku, acio maakũrathĩire ũhoro atĩrĩ, ‘Mũthamaki wa Babuloni ndagagũtharĩkĩra wee o na kana bũrũri ũyũ’?
20 Na afei, ɔdɛɛfo, mesrɛ wo tie. Ma memfa me nkotosrɛ nto wʼanim: Mfa me nkɔto ɔkyerɛwfo Yonatan fi hɔ bio, anyɛ saa a mewu wɔ hɔ.”
Na rĩu-rĩ, wee mũthamaki mwathi wakwa, ĩtĩkĩra gũthikĩrĩria. Njĩtĩkĩria ndeehe mathaithana makwa mbere yaku: Ndũkanjookie nyũmba ya Jonathani ũrĩa mwandĩki, ndigakuĩre kuo.”
21 Ɔhene Sedekia hyɛɛ sɛ wɔmfa Yeremia nkɔto awɛmfo adiwo hɔ, na wɔmma no brodo a efi brodotofo borɔn so da biara nkosi sɛ kuropɔn no mu brodo nyinaa bɛsa. Enti Yeremia kaa awɛmfo adiwo hɔ.
Nake Mũthamaki Zedekia akĩruta watho, akiuga atĩ Jeremia aigwo kũu nja ĩrĩa ya arangĩri, na aheagwo mũgate o mũthenya ũrutĩtwo barabara-inĩ ya arugi mĩgate, o nginya rĩrĩa mĩgate ĩgaathira kũu itũũra-inĩ inene. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jeremia agĩikara kũu nja ĩyo ya arangĩri.
