Yeremia 35

1 Yei ne asɛm a ɛfiri Awurade nkyɛn baa Yeremia hɔ ɛberɛ a na Yudahene Yosia babarima Yehoiakim di adeɛ no:

Kino kye kigambo kya Mukama ekyajjira Yeremiya mu bufuzi bwa Yekoyakimu kabaka wa Yuda, mutabani wa Yosiya nga kigamba nti,

2 “Kɔ Rekabfoɔ abusua no nkyɛn, na to nsa frɛ wɔn na wɔmmra Awurade efie no mpia baako mu, na ma wɔn nsã nnom.”

“Genda eri ekika eky’Abalekabu obayite bajje mu kimu ku bisenge mu nnyumba ya Mukama obawe envinnyo banywe.”

3 Enti, mekɔpɛɛ Habasinia babarima Yeremia babarima Yaasania ne ne nuammarima ne ne mmammarima nyinaa, Rekabfoɔ abusuadɔm no.

Awo ne ntwala Yaazaniya mutabani wa Yeremiya, mutabani wa Kabazziniya ne baganda be ne batabani be bonna, ekika kyonna eky’Abalekabu.

4 Mede wɔn baa Awurade efie, na mede wɔn kɔɔ Onyame onipa Yigdalia babarima Hanan mmammarima dan mu. Ɛno na ɛdi adwumayɛfoɔ dan a ɛsi ɔpono ano hwɛfoɔ Salum babarima Maaseia dan atifi no so.

Ne mbayingiza mu nnyumba ya Mukama, mu kisenge kya batabani ba Kanani mutabani wa Igudaliya omusajja wa Katonda. Kyali kiriraanye ekisenge kya bakungu, ekyali waggulu w’ekisenge kya Maaseya mutabani wa Sallumu omukuumi w’oluggi.

5 Afei mede nkuruwa ne nkora a nsã wɔ mu bɛsisii Rekabfoɔ abusua mma no anim na meka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monnom nsã kakra.”

Ne nteeka ebibya ebijjudde envinnyo n’ebikopo ebimu mu maaso g’abasajja ab’ennyumba y’Abalekabu ne mbagamba nti, “Munywe ku nvinnyo.”

6 Nanso wɔbuaa sɛ, “Yɛnnom nsã, ɛfiri sɛ yɛn nana Rekab babarima Yehonadab maa yɛn ɔhyɛ nsɛm yi sɛ, ‘Ɛnsɛ sɛ mo anaa mo asefoɔ nom nsã.

Naye ne baddamu nti, “Tetujja kunywa nvinnyo kubanga jjajjaffe Yonadabu mutabani wa Lekabu yatulagira nti, ‘Tewabanga n’omu ku mmwe wadde abaana bammwe anywanga envinnyo.

7 Na afei ɛnsɛ sɛ mosisi afie, modua anaa moyɛ bobe nturo, ɛnsɛ sɛ moyɛ yeinom mu biara, na mmom montena ntomadan mu ɛberɛ biara. Ɛno na mo nkwa nna bɛware, wɔ asase a moyɛ atutenafoɔ wɔ so no so.’

Era temuzimbanga ennyumba, wadde okusiganga ensigo wadde okusimba emizabbibu; temubanga na bintu bino byonna, naye mubeeranga mu weema zokka. Olwo munaawangaliranga mu nsi gye munaaberangamu.’

8 Yɛatie biribiara a yɛn nana Rekab babarima Yonadab hyɛɛ yɛn no. Na yɛn, yɛn yerenom, mmammarima ne mmammaa nnom nsã da

Twagondera ekiragiro kya jjajjaffe Yonadabu mutabani wa Lekabu kye yatulagira. Ffe wadde bakazi baffe wadde batabani baffe wadde bawala baffe tetunywangako ku nvinnyo,

9 na yɛnsisii afie ntenaa mu anaa yɛnnyaa bobe nturo anaa mfuo anaa nnɔbaeɛ.

oba okuzimba ennyumba okusulamu oba okuba n’ennimiro ez’emizabbibu, oba ebibanja oba ebirime.

10 Yɛatenatena ntomadan mu, na yɛadi biribiara a yɛn nana Yehonadab hyɛɛ yɛn no so pɛpɛɛpɛ.

Tusula mu weema era tugondedde bulambalamba byonna jjajjaffe Yonadabu bye yatulagira.

11 Nanso, ɛberɛ a Babiloniahene Nebukadnessar tuu asase yi so sa no, yɛkaa sɛ, ‘Mommra, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkɔ Yerusalem na yɛdwane firi Babiloniafoɔ ne Aramfoɔ akodɔm anim.’ Ɛno enti yɛaka Yerusalem.”

Naye Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni bwe yazinda ensi eno ne tugamba nti, ‘Tugende e Yerusaalemi tuwone eggye ery’Abakaludaaya n’ery’Abasuuli,’ kyetuvudde tubeera mu Yerusaalemi.”

12 Afei, Awurade asɛm baa Yeremia nkyɛn sɛ,

Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Yeremiya nti,

13 “Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, seɛ: Kɔ na kɔka kyerɛ mmarima a wɔwɔ Yuda ne Yerusalemfoɔ sɛ, ‘Morensua biribi na morentie mʼasɛm anaa?’ Awurade na ɔseɛ.

“Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, Genda ogambe abantu ba Yuda n’ab’omu Yerusaalemi nti, ‘Temuyinza kubaako kye muyiga, ne mugondera ebigambo byange?

14 ‘Rekab ba Yehonadab hyɛɛ ne mmammarima sɛ wɔnnom nsã, na wɔadi saa ɔhyɛ yi so. Ɛbɛsi ɛnnɛ wɔnnom nsã, ɛfiri sɛ wɔdi wɔn agyanom ahyɛdeɛ so. Na makasa akyerɛ mo mpɛn bebree, nanso montiee me.

Yonadabu mutabani wa Lekabu yalagira batabani be obutanywa nvinnyo n’ekiragiro kino kyakumibwa. Okutuusa ne leero tebanywa nvinnyo, kubanga baagondera etteeka lya jjajjaabwe. Naye njogedde nammwe emirundi mingi, naye temuŋŋondedde.

15 Mesomaa mʼasomfoɔ adiyifoɔ nyinaa baa mo nkyɛn mpɛn bebree. Wɔkaa sɛ, “Ɛsɛ sɛ mo mu biara sesa firi nʼamumuyɛ akwan ho, na moma mo akwan tene; monni anyame foforɔ akyi na monnsom wɔn. Ɛno na mobɛtena asase a mede ama mo ne mo agyanom yi so.” Nanso mommuaa me na monntiee me.

Emirundi mingi, natuma abaddu bange bonna bannabbi gye muli. Babagamba nti, “Buli omu ku mmwe ateekwa okuva mu makubo ge amabi akyuse ebikolwa bye, muleme kugoberera bakatonda balala okubaweereza, mulyoke mubeere mu nsi gye nabawa ne bajjajjammwe.” Naye temwanfaako wadde okumpuliriza.

16 Rekab babarima Yehonadab asefoɔ adi ahyɛdeɛ a wɔn agyanom de maa wɔn no so, nanso saa nnipa yi ntie mʼasɛm.’

Ab’enda ya Yonadabu mutabani wa Lekabu baakuuma ekiragiro jjajjaabwe kye yabalagira, naye abantu bano tebaŋŋondedde.’

17 “Ɛno enti, yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade Onyankopɔn, Israel Onyankopɔn no seɛ: ‘Montie! Mede amanehunu biara a mahyɛ ama Yuda ne obiara a ɔte Yerusalem no bɛba wɔn so. Mekasa kyerɛɛ wɔn, nanso wɔantie, mefrɛɛ wɔn nanso wɔannye so.’”

“Noolwekyo, bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, ‘Muwulirize, ŋŋenda kuleeta ku Yuda ne ku buli muntu yenna atuula mu Yerusaalemi buli kibonoobono kye naboogerako. Nayogera nabo, naye tebampuliriza; nabayita, naye tebanziramu.’”

18 Afei, Yeremia ka kyerɛɛ Rekab abusua no sɛ, “Yei ne deɛ Asafo Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn no seɛ: ‘Moayɛ ɔsetie ama mo nana Yehonadab ahyɛdeɛ no, na moadi ne nkyerɛkyerɛ so, na moayɛ biribiara a ɔhyɛɛ mo no.’

Awo Yeremiya n’agamba ennyumba y’Abalekabu nti, “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, ‘Mugondedde ekiragiro kya jjajjaammwe Yonadabu ne mukwata byonna bye yabalagira ne mutuukiriza byonna bye yabagamba.’

19 Ɛno enti, deɛ Asafo Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn no seɛ nie: ‘Rekab babarima Yehonadab bɛnya ɔbarima a ɔbɛsom me ɛberɛ biara.’”

Noolwekyo, bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, ‘Yonadabu mutabani wa Lekabu talirema kuba na mwana we alimpeereza.’”
