< Yeremia 39 >
1 Yudahene Sedekia dii ade no, ne mfe akron mu, ɔsram a ɛto so du so no, Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar ne nʼasraafo nyinaa tuu Yerusalem so sa, wotuaa kuropɔn no na wɔyɛɛ mpie twaa ho hyiae.
Ngomnyaka wesificamunwemunye kaZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda, ngenyanga yetshumi, kwafika uNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni lebutho lakhe lonke, bamelana leJerusalema, bayivimbezela.
2 Sedekia adedi afe a ɛto so dubaako, ɔsram a ɛto so anan no da a ɛto so akron no, wobubuu kuropɔn no afasu.
Ngomnyaka wetshumi lanye kaZedekhiya, ngenyanga yesine, ngolwesificamunwemunye lwenyanga, umuzi wafohlelwa.
3 Na Babiloniahene adwumayɛfo no nyinaa bɛtenaa Mfimfini Pon hɔ: Nergal-Sareser a ofi Samgar ne Nebo-Sarsekim a ɔyɛ ɔsraani panyin ne Nergal-Sareser a ɔyɛ otitiriw, ne Babiloniahene adwumayɛfo a wɔaka no nyinaa.
Zonke iziphathamandla zenkosi yeBhabhiloni zasezingena, zahlala esangweni eliphakathi, oNerigali-Sharezi, uSamiganebo, uSarisekimi, uRabisarisi, uNerigali-Sharezi, uRabimagi, lazo zonke ezinye iziphathamandla zenkosi yeBhabhiloni.
4 Bere a Yudahene Sedekia ne nʼasraafo nyinaa huu wɔn no, woguanee, wɔfaa ɔhene turo mu fii kuropɔn no mu anadwo, kɔfaa ɔpon a ɛwɔ afasu abien no ntam, de wɔn ani kyerɛɛ Araba.
Kwasekusithi lapho uZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda lawo wonke amadoda empi bezibona, babaleka, baphuma emzini ebusuku ngendlela yesivande senkosi, ngesango eliphakathi kwemiduli emibili; waphuma ngendlela yamagceke.
5 Nanso Babilonia asraafo no taa wɔn kɔtoo Sedekia wɔ Yeriko tataw so. Wɔfaa no dommum de no kɔmaa Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar wɔ Ribla a ɛwɔ Hamat asase so, na hɔ na obuu no atɛn.
Kodwa ibutho lamaKhaladiya laxotshana labo, lamfica uZedekhiya emagcekeni eJeriko; selimbambile lamenyusela kuNebhukadinezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni eRibila, elizweni leHamathi, owakhuluma izigwebo ezimelene laye.
6 Ribla hɔ na Babiloniahene kunkum Sedekia mmabarima wɔ nʼanim na okum Yudafo mmapɔmma nyinaa nso.
Inkosi yeBhabhiloni yasibulala amadodana kaZedekhiya eRibila emehlweni akhe; inkosi yeBhabhiloni yabuya yabulala zonke izikhulu zakoJuda.
7 Afei otutuu Sedekia ani, de kɔbere mfrafrae mpokyerɛ guu no sɛ ɔde no rekɔ Babilonia.
Yasiphumputhekisa amehlo kaZedekhiya, yambopha ngamaketane ethusi amabili ukuze imuse eBhabhiloni.
8 Babiloniafo no de ogya too ahemfi no ne nnipa no afi mu, na wodwiriw Yerusalem afasu no.
AmaKhaladiya asetshisa indlu yenkosi lezindlu zabantu ngomlilo, adilizela phansi imiduli yeJerusalema.
9 Ɔsahene Nebusaradan a otua ɔhene awɛmfo ano no de kuropɔn no mu nkae, wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho kɔmaa no ne nnipa a wɔaka no kɔɔ nkoasom mu wɔ Babilonia.
Lensali yabantu eyayisele emzini, lalabo ababehlubukile, ababehlubukile kuyo, lensali yabantu eyayisele, uNebuzaradani induna yabalindi yabathumba yabasa eBhabhiloni.
10 Nanso ɔsahene Nebusaradan a otua awɛmfo no ano no gyaa ahiafo a wonni hwee no mu bi wɔ Yuda asase so, na saa bere no ɔmaa wɔn bobe nturo ne nsase.
Kodwa uNebuzaradani induna yabalindi watshiya elizweni lakoJuda ebantwini ababengabayanga ababengelalutho, wabanika izivini lamasimu ngalolosuku.
11 Na Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar afa ɔsahene Nebusaradan a otua ɔhene awɛmfo ano no so ama saa ɔhyɛ nsɛm yi a ɛfa Yeremia ho se,
UNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni waselaya ngesandla sikaNebuzaradani induna yabalindi ngoJeremiya esithi:
12 “Fa no na hwɛ no so; nhaw no na nea obisa biara no, yɛ ma no.”
Mthathe, umise amehlo akho kuye, ungamenzeli ulutho olubi, kodwa njengokukhuluma kwakhe kuwe wenze njalo ngaye.
13 Enti ɔsahene Nebusaradan a otua awɛmfo no ano, Nebusaradan, adwumayɛfo panyin, Nergal-Sareser a ɔyɛ otitiriw ne Babiloniahene adwumayɛfo a wɔaka no nyinaa
Ngakho bathuma oNebuzaradani induna yabalindi, loNebushazibani, uRabisarisi, loNerigali-Sharezi, uRabimagi, lazo zonke induna zenkosi yeBhabhiloni,
14 soma ma wɔkɔfaa Yeremia fii awɛmfo adiwo hɔ bae. Wɔde no hyɛɛ Safan babarima Gedalia babarima Ahikam nsa sɛ ɔmfa no nkɔ ne fi. Enti Yeremia tenaa nʼankasa nkurɔfo mu.
bathuma, bamthatha uJeremiya egumeni lentolongo, bamnikela kuGedaliya, indodana kaAhikhamu, indodana kaShafani, ukuze amkhuphe amuse endlini yakhe. Wasehlala phakathi kwabantu.
15 Bere a Yeremia da so da afiase wɔ awɛmfo adiwo hɔ no, Awurade asɛm baa ne nkyɛn se,
Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kuJeremiya esavalelwe egumeni lentolongo, lisithi:
16 “Kɔka kyerɛ Kusni Ebed-Melek se, ‘Sɛnea Asafo Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, se ni: Me nsɛm a etia kuropɔn yi, mede refa amanehunu so na ɛnyɛ yiyedi so ama aba mu. Saa bere no ɛbɛba mu wɔ wʼanim.
Hamba ukhulume kuEbedimeleki umEthiyophiya uthi: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Khangela, ngizakwehlisela amazwi ami kulumuzi ngokubi kungeyisikho ngokuhle, njalo azakuba phambi kwakho ngalolosuku.
17 Nanso megye wo saa da no, Awurade na ose; wɔremfa wo nhyɛ wɔn a wusuro wɔn no nsa.
Kodwa ngizakophula ngalolosuku, itsho iNkosi, njalo kawuyikunikelwa esandleni sabantu obesabayo.
18 Megye wo nkwa, na worentɔ wɔ afoa ano na mmom wubenya wo ti adidi mu, efisɛ wugye me di, Awurade, na ose.’”
Ngoba ngizakukhulula isibili, kawuyikuwa-ke ngenkemba, kodwa impilo yakho izakuba yimpango kuwe, ngoba uthembele kimi, itsho iNkosi.
