Ko e ngaahi lea ʻa Selemaia, ko e foha ʻo Hilikia, ko e tokotaha ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki naʻe nofo ʻi ʻAnatoti ʻi he fonua ʻo Penisimani:
2 Awurade asɛm baa ne nkyɛn wɔ Yosia a ɔyɛ Yuda ɔhene Amon babarima adedie afe a ɛtɔ so dumiɛnsa mu.
‌ʻAia naʻe hoko ki ai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Siosaia, ko e foha ʻo ʻAmoni, ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻi hono hongofulu ma tolu taʻu ʻo ʻene pule.

Naʻe hoko foki ia ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Siosaia ko e tuʻi Siuta, ʻo aʻu ki hono fakaʻosi hono hongofulu ma taha taʻu ʻo Setikia ko e foha ʻo Siosaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻo aʻu ki hono ʻave fakapōpula ʻa Selūsalema ʻi hono nima māhina.
4 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ,
Pea naʻe toki hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
5 “Ansa na merebɔ wo wɔ awotwaa mu no, na menim wo; ansa na wɔrebɛwo wo no, meyii wo sii nkyɛn; meyɛɛ wo sɛ odiyifoɔ maa aman no.”
“Naʻaku ʻilo koe ʻi he teʻeki ai te u fakatupu koe ʻi he fatu; pea naʻaku fakatapui koe, pea tuʻutuʻuni koe, ko e palōfita ki he ngaahi puleʻanga, ʻi he teʻeki ai te ke haʻu mei he manāva.”
6 Mekaa sɛ, “Aa, Otumfoɔ Awurade mennim kasa; meyɛ abɔfra.”
Pea naʻaku toki pehē, “ʻOiauē! ʻE ʻEiki ko Sihova! Vakai, ʻOku ʻikai te u faʻa lea: he ko e tamasiʻi au.”
7 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Nka sɛ ‘meyɛ abɔfra.’ Ɛsɛ sɛ wokɔ obiara a mɛsoma wo ne nkyɛn na woka asɛm biara a mɛhyɛ wo sɛ ka no.
Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “ʻOua naʻa ke pehē, ko e tamasiʻi koe: ka ke ʻalu kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ou fekau koe ki ai, pea ko ia te u fekau kiate koe ke ke lea ʻaki.
8 Nsuro wɔn, ɛfiri sɛ meka wo ho, na magye wo,” deɛ Awurade seɛ nie.
Pea ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē ki honau mata: he ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻoku ou ʻiate koe, ke fakamoʻui koe.”
9 Na Awurade tenee ne nsa de kaa mʼano na ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Seesei mede me nsɛm ahyɛ wʼanomu.
Pea naʻe toki mafao mai ʻe Sihova hono nima, ʻo ala ki hoku ngutu. Pea pehē mai ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Vakai, ʻoku ou ʻai ʻeku ngaahi lea ki ho ngutu.
10 Hwɛ, ɛnnɛ mede wo asi aman ne ahennie so sɛ, tutu na dwiri gu, sɛe na tu gu, kyekyere na dua.”
Vakai, Kuo u foaki kiate koe ʻi he ʻaho ni ʻae mālohi ki he ngaahi kakai, mo e ngaahi puleʻanga, ke taʻaki, mo veteki, ke fakaʻauha, mo lī ki lalo, ke langa hake, mo tō.”
11 Na Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wohunu yi, Yeremia?” Na mebuaa sɛ, “Mehunu sorɔno dubaa.”
Pea naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē, “ʻE Selemaia, ko e hā ʻoku ke mamata ki ai?” Pea naʻaku pehē, “ʻOku ou mamata ki he vaʻa ʻoe ʻakau ko e ʻalimoni.”
12 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Wahunu no yie, na merehwɛ anim sɛ mʼasɛm bɛba mu.”
Pea naʻe pehē mai ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Kuo ke mamata totonu: he te u fakavave ʻeku lea ke fakahoko ia.”
13 Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn bio sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wohunu yi?” Mebuaa sɛ, “Mehunu ɛsɛn a ɛrehuru sɛ ano rekyea akyerɛ yɛn firi atifi fam.”
Pea naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ʻo liunga ua kiate au, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke mamata ki ai?” Pea naʻaku pehē, “ʻOku ou mamata ki he kulo vela; ʻoku hanga mai hono ngutu mei he tokelau.”
14 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Wɔbɛfiri atifi fam de amanehunu aba wɔn a wɔte asase no so nyinaa so.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “ʻE tupu mei he tokelau ʻae kovi ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua.
15 Merebɛfrɛ atifi ahennie mu nnipa nyinaa,” deɛ Awurade seɛ nie. “Wɔn ahemfo de wɔn ahennwa bɛba abɛsisi Yerusalem kuropɔn apono ano; wɔbɛto ahyɛ nʼafasuo a atwa ahyia ne Yuda nkuro nyinaa so.
He, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, Vakai, te u ui ki he faʻahinga kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga ʻi he tokelau; “pea te nau haʻu, pea te nau taki taha nofo ʻi hono nofoʻanga ʻi he hūʻanga ki he ngaahi matapā ʻo Selūsalema, pea ki hono ngaahi ʻā kotoa pē ʻo takatakai, pea ki he ngaahi kolo kotoa pē ʻo Siuta.
16 Mɛbu me nkurɔfoɔ atɛn wɔ wɔn amumuyɛ sɛ wɔagya me, sɛ wɔhye nnuhwam ma anyame foforɔ na wɔkoto sɔre deɛ wɔde wɔn nsa ayɛ.
Pea te u fakahā ʻeku ngaahi tautea kiate kinautolu, koeʻuhi ko ʻenau angahala kotoa pē, he kuo nau liʻaki au, pea tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, pea tauhi ki he ngaahi ngāue ʻa honau nima.
17 “Siesie wo ho! Sɔre na ka deɛ mɛka akyerɛ wo biara kyerɛ wɔn. Mma wɔmmmɔ wo hu, anyɛ saa a mɛma woabɔ hu wɔ wɔn anim.
“Ko ia ke ke nonoʻo hoʻo noʻotanga vala, pea tuʻu hake, pea lea ʻaki kiate kinautolu ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ou fekau kiate koe: pea ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē ki honau mata, telia naʻaku fakamaaʻi koe ʻi honau ʻao.
18 Ɛnnɛ, mayɛ wo kuropɔn a ɛwɔ banbɔ, dadeɛ dum ne kɔbere ɔfasuo sɛ wobɛsɔre atia asase no nyinaa, Yuda ahemfo, nʼadwumayɛfoɔ, asɔfoɔ ne nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so.
He vakai, kuo u ngaohi koe he ʻaho ni ko e kolo kuo teu ki he tau, ko e pou ukamea, ko e ngaahi ʻā palasa, ki he fonua kotoa pē, ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta, mo hono houʻeiki, pea ki hono kau taulaʻeiki, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua.
19 Wɔbɛko atia wo nanso wɔrentumi nni wo so nkonim, ɛfiri sɛ meka wo ho, na mɛgye wo,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie.
Pea te nau tauʻi koe; ka ʻe ʻikai te nau mālohi kiate koe;” he ʻoku pehē mai ʻe Sihova, “ʻOku ou ʻiate koe, ke fakamoʻui koe.”
