1 Ɔsahene Nebusaradan a otua ɔhene awɛmfo ano no gyaa Yeremia wɔ Rama akyi no, asɛm no fi Awurade nkyɛn baa Yeremia hɔ. Ohuu sɛ wɔagu Yeremia nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn wɔ nnommum a wofi Yerusalem ne Yuda a na wɔde wɔn rekɔ Babilonia no mu.
Ko e folofola naʻe hoko meia Sihova kia Selemaia, hili hono tukuange ia mei Lama ʻe Nepusaatani ko e ʻeiki ʻoe kau leʻo, he naʻe haʻisia ʻaki ia ʻae maea ukamea fihifihi fakataha mo e kau pōpula kotoa pē ʻo Selūsalema mo Siuta, ʻaia naʻe ʻave fakapōpula ki Papilone.
2 Bere a ɔsahene a otua awɛmfo no ano no huu Yeremia no, ɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Awurade, wo Nyankopɔn, na ɔhyɛɛ saa amanehunu yi maa beae yi.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau leʻo kia Selemaia, “Kuo fakahā ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻae kovi ni, ki he potu ni.
3 Na afei, Awurade ama aba mu, wayɛ sɛnea ɔkaa se ɔbɛyɛ no. Eyinom nyinaa baa mu, efisɛ mo saa nnipa yi yɛɛ bɔne tiaa Awurade na moanyɛ osetie amma no.
Pea ko eni, kuo fakahoko ia ʻe Sihova, pea kuo fai ʻo hangē ko ʻene folofola: koeʻuhi kuo mou fai angahala kia Sihova, pea ʻikai talangofua ki hono leʻo, ko ia kuo hoko ai ʻae meʻa ni kiate kimoutolu.
4 Nanso nnɛ mereyi wo afi nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a egu wo nsa no mu. Sɛ wopɛ a, ma yɛnkɔ Babilonia na mɛhwɛ wo so, nanso sɛ wompɛ de a, mma. Hwɛ ɔman no nyinaa na ɛda wʼanim no, kɔ baabiara a wopɛ.”
Pea ko eni, vakai, kuo u vete mei ho nima he ʻaho ni ʻae maea ukamea fihifihi. Pea kapau ʻoku lelei kiate koe ke tā ʻo mo au ki Papilone, haʻu; pea te u fai lelei kiate koe: pea kapau ʻoku kovi kiate koe ke tā ʻo mo au ki Papilone, tuku: vakai ʻoku ʻi ho ʻao ʻae fonua kotoa pē: pea ko e potu ʻoku lelei mo ʻaonga kiate koe ke ʻalu ki ai, ke ke ʻalu ki ai.”
5 Na ansa na Yeremia bɛdan ne ho akɔ no, Nebusaradan ka kaa ho se, “San kɔ Ahikam babarima Gedalia a, ɔyɛ Safan nena, a Babiloniahene apa no sɛ ɔnhwɛ Yuda nkurow so no nkyɛn na wo ne no nkɔtena wɔ nnipa no mu, anaasɛ kɔ baabi foforo biara a wopɛ.” Na ɔsahene no maa Yeremia aduan ne akyɛde, na ɔmaa no kɔe.
Pea ʻi he teʻeki ai te ne liliu atu, naʻa ne pehē, “Ko ia ke ke nofo mo Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami ko e foha ʻo Safani, ʻaia naʻe fakanofo ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ke pule ki he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, pea ke ke nofo mo ia mo e kakai: pe te ke ʻalu ki ha potu ʻoku lelei kiate koe ke ʻalu ki ai,” Pea naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe kau leʻo ʻae ʻoho mo e totongi, pea tukuange ia.
6 Enti Yeremia kɔɔ Ahikam babarima Gedalia nkyɛn wɔ Mispa, na ɔne no tenaa nnipa a wɔkaa wɔ asase no so no mu.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ai ʻa Selemaia kia Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami ʻi Misipa; ʻo nofo mo ia pea mo e kakai naʻe toe ʻi he fonua.
7 Bere a asraafo mpanyimfo no nyinaa ne wɔn mmarima a wɔda so wɔ wuram no tee sɛ, Babiloniahene ayɛ Ahikam babarima Gedalia amrado wɔ asase no so, na ɔde mmarima, mmea ne mmofra a wɔyɛ ahiafo wɔ asase no so, na wɔamfa wɔn ankɔ nnommum mu wɔ Babilonia ahyɛ ne nsa no,
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻae ʻeikitau kotoa pē ʻaia naʻe ʻi he ngaahi ngoue, ʻakinautolu mo honau kakai, kuo fakanofo ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻa Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami ke pule ʻi he fonua, pea kuo tukuange kiate ia ʻae kau tangata, mo e kau fefine, mo e fānau, pea mo e kakai masiva ʻoe fonua, ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻikai fetuku fakapōpula ki Papilone;
8 wɔbaa Gedalia hɔ wɔ Mispa: Netania babarima Ismael, Karea mmabarima Yohanan ne Yonatan, Tanhumet babarima Seraia, Efai a ofi Netofa mmabarima, Yesania a ɔyɛ Maakatni babarima ne wɔn mmarima.
Naʻa nau haʻu kia Ketalia ʻi Misipa, ʻio, ko ʻIsimeʻeli ko e foha ʻo Natania, pea ko Sohanani mo Sonatani ko e ongo foha ʻo Kalia, pea ko Selaia ko e foha ʻo Tanumeti, pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo ʻIfai ko e tangata Nitofa, pea mo Seasania ko e foha ʻoe tangata mei Meaka, ʻakinautolu mo honau kau tangata.
9 Na Ahikam babarima Gedalia a ɔyɛ Safan nena no kaa ntam de hyɛɛ wɔn ne wɔn mmarima den se, “Munnsuro sɛ mobɛsom Babiloniafo. Montena asase no so na monsom Babiloniahene, na ebesi mo yiye.
Pea naʻe fuakava kiate kinautolu mo ʻenau kakai ʻe Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami ko e foha ʻo Safani, ʻo pehē, “ʻOua naʻa mou manavahē ke tauhi ki he kau Kalitia: mou nofo ʻi he fonua, pea tauhi ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea ʻe lelei ia kiate kimoutolu.
10 Me de, mɛtena Mispa, na masi mo anan mu wɔ Babiloniafo a, wɔba yɛn nkyɛn no mu, na mo de, monkɔboaboa nsa, ahohuru bere mu nnuaba ne ngo ano ngu adekora nkuruwa mu wɔ twabere mu, na montenatena nkurow a moafa no so.”
Pea ko eni, vakai, te u nofo ʻi Misipa, ke tauhi ʻae kau Kalitia, ʻakinautolu ʻe haʻu kiate kitautolu: ka ko kimoutolu, ke mou tānaki ʻae uaine, mo e ngaahi fua momoho, mo e lolo, pea tuku ia ki he ngaahi puha, pea nonofo ʻi homou ngaahi kolo ʻaia kuo mou maʻu.”
11 Bere a Yudafo a wɔwɔ Moab, Amon, Edom ne aman ahorow a aka no, tee sɛ Babiloniahene agyaw nkae bi wɔ Yuda na wayi Ahikam babarima Gedalia a ɔyɛ Safan nena sɛ amrado wɔ wɔn so no,
Pea kuo fanongo foki ʻae kau Siu kotoa pē naʻe ʻi Moape, pea ʻi he kau ʻAmoni, pea ʻi ʻItomi, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻi he ngaahi potu, kuo tuku ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻae toenga kakai ʻi Siuta, pea kuo fakanofo ke pule kiate kinautolu ʻa Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami ko e foha ʻo Safani;
12 wɔn nyinaa san baa Yuda asase so fi aman a wɔbɔɔ wɔn petee no so, kɔɔ Gedalia hɔ wɔ Mispa. Na wɔboaboaa nsa ne ahohuru bere mu nnuaba bebree ano wɔ twabere mu.
Naʻe liliu mai ʻae kau Siu kotoa pē mei he ngaahi potu kotoa pē naʻe kapusi ʻakinautolu ki ai, ʻonau haʻu ki he fonua ʻo Siuta, kia Ketalia ʻi Misipa: pea naʻa nau tānaki ʻae uaine mo e ngaahi fua momoho ʻo lahi ʻaupito.
13 Na Karea babarima Yohanan ne ntuano asraafo a wɔda so wɔ wuram no baa Gedalia nkyɛn wɔ Mispa
Pea naʻe haʻu kia Ketalia ʻi Misipa, ʻa Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Kalia, pea mo e houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻoe kau tau naʻe ʻi he ngoue.
14 na wɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Wunnim sɛ, Amonhene Baalis asoma Netania babarima Ismael se, ommekum wo ana?” Nanso Ahikam babarima Gedalia annye wɔn anni.
Pea nau pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ke ʻilo pau kuo fekau ʻe Pelisi ko e tuʻi ʻoe kau ʻAmoni ʻa ʻIsimeʻeli ko e foha ʻo Natania ke tāmateʻi koe?” Ka naʻe ʻikai tui kiate kinautolu ʻe Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami.
15 Na Karea babarima Yohanan ka kyerɛɛ Gedalia wɔ kokoa mu wɔ Mispa se, “Ma minkokum Netania babarima Ismael, na obiara rente. Adɛn nti na ɛsɛ sɛ okum wo na ɔma Yudafo a wɔatwa wo ho ahyia no bɔ ahwete, na Yudafo nkae no yera?”
Pea naʻe lea fakafufū ʻa Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Kalia kia Ketalia ʻi Misipa, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke u ʻalu, pea te u tāmateʻi ʻa ʻIsimeʻeli ko e foha ʻo Natania, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻilo ia ʻe ha tangata ʻe tokotaha: te ne tāmateʻi koe, koeʻumaʻā; ke fakamovetevete ʻae kau Siu kotoa pē kuo fakataha kiate koe, pea ʻauha ʻae toenga kakai ʻi Siuta?”
16 Nanso Ahikam babarima Gedalia ka kyerɛɛ Karea babarima Yohanan se, “Nyɛ saa ade yi! Nea woka fa Ismael ho no nyɛ nokware.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami kia Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Kalia, “ʻE ʻikai te ke fai ʻae meʻa ni: he ʻoku ke lohiakiʻi ʻa ʻIsimeʻeli.”
