And these [are] [the] words of the letter which he sent Jeremiah the prophet from Jerusalem to [the] remainder of [the] elders of the exile[s] and to the priests and to the prophets and to all the people which he had taken into exile Nebuchadnezzar from Jerusalem Babylon towards.
2 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí Jekoniah, ọba, àti ayaba, àti àwọn ìwẹ̀fà, àti àwọn ìjòyè Juda àti Jerusalẹmu, àwọn gbẹ́nàgbẹ́nà àti àwọn olùyàwòrán tí wọ́n lọ ṣe àtìpó láti Jerusalẹmu.
After went out Jeconiah the king and the queen-mother and the court-officials [the] officials of Judah and Jerusalem and the craftsman and the smith from Jerusalem.
3 Ó fi lẹ́tà náà rán Eleasa ọmọ Ṣafani àti Gemariah ọmọ Hilkiah, ẹni tí Sedekiah ọba Juda rán sí Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli. Wí pé.

4 Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Alágbára Israẹli sọ fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí mo kó lọ ṣe àtìpó láti Jerusalẹmu ní Babeli:
Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel to all the exile[s] whom I sent into exile from Jerusalem Babylon towards.
5 “Ẹ kọ́ ilé kí ẹ sì máa gbé ibẹ̀, ẹ dá oko, kí ẹ sì máa jẹ èso ohun ọ̀gbìn oko yín.
Build houses and dwell and plant gardens and eat produce their.
6 Ẹ ṣe ìgbéyàwó, kí ẹ sì bí ọmọkùnrin àti ọmọbìnrin, ẹ gbé ìyàwó fún àwọn ọmọkùnrin yín, kí ẹ sì fi àwọn ọmọbìnrin yín fún ọkọ. Kí àwọn náà lè ní ọmọkùnrin àti ọmọbìnrin. Ẹ máa pọ̀ sí i ní iye, ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ dínkù ní iye níbẹ̀ rárá.
Take wives and father sons and daughters and take for sons your wives and daughters your give to husbands so they may bear sons and daughters and multiply there and may not you diminish.
7 Bákan náà, ẹ máa wá àlàáfíà àti ìre ìlú, èyí tí mo kó yín lọ láti ṣe àtìpó. Ẹ gbàdúrà sí Olúwa fún ìre ilẹ̀ náà; nítorí pé bí ó bá dára fún ilẹ̀ náà, yóò dára fún ẹ̀yin pẹ̀lú.”
And seek [the] welfare of the city where I have sent into exile you there towards and pray for it to Yahweh for in welfare its it will belong to you welfare.
8 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí: “Ẹ má ṣe gbà kí àwọn wòlíì èké àti àwọn aláfọ̀ṣẹ àárín yín tàn yín jẹ. Ẹ má ṣe fetísílẹ̀ sí àlá, èyí tí ẹ gbà wọ́n níyànjú láti lá.
For thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel may not they deceive you prophets your who [are] in midst your and diviners your and may not you listen to dreams your which you [are] dreaming.
9 Wọ́n ń sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ èké fún yín lórúkọ mi, Èmi kò rán wọn níṣẹ́,” ni Olúwa wí.
For with falsehood they [are] prophesying to you in name my not I sent them [the] utterance of Yahweh.
10 Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: “Nígbà tí ẹ bá lo àádọ́rin ọdún pé ní Babeli, èmi yóò tọ̀ yín wá láti ṣe àmúṣẹ ìlérí ńlá mi fún un yín, àní láti kó o yín padà sí Jerusalẹmu.
That thus he says Yahweh if to [the] mouth will be completed for Babylon seventy year[s] I will give attention to you and I will carry out on you word my good by bringing back you to the place this.
11 Nítorí mo mọ èrò tí mo rò sí yín,” ni Olúwa wí, “àní èrò àlàáfíà, kì í sì ṣe fún ibi, èrò láti fún un yín ní ìgbà ìkẹyìn àti ìrètí ọjọ́ iwájú.
For I I know the plans which I [am] planning on you [the] utterance of Yahweh plans of well-being and not for harm to give to you a future and a hope.
12 Nígbà náà ni ẹ̀yin yóò ké pè mí, tí ẹ̀yin yóò sì gbàdúrà sí mi, tí èmi yóò sì gbọ́ àdúrà yín.
And you will call on me and you will come and you will pray to me and I will listen to you.
13 Ẹ̀yin yóò wá mi, bí ẹ̀yin bá sì fi gbogbo ọkàn yín wá mi: ẹ̀yin yóò rí mi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run wí.
And you will seek me and you will find [me] if you will seek me with all heart your.
14 Èmi yóò di rí rí fún yín ni Olúwa wí, Èmi yóò sì mú yín padà kúrò ní ìgbèkùn. Èmi yóò ṣà yín jọ láti gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè àti ibi gbogbo tí Èmi ti lé yín jáde, ni Olúwa wí. Èmi yóò sì kó yín padà sí ibi tí mo ti mú kí a kó yín ní ìgbèkùn lọ.”
And I will let myself be found by you [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will turn back (captivity your *Q(k)*) and I will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I banished you there [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will bring back you to the place where I sent into exile you from there.
15 Ẹ̀yin lè wí pé, “Olúwa ti gbé àwọn wòlíì dìde fún wa ní Babeli.”
For you have said he has raised up for us Yahweh prophets Babylon.
16 Ṣùgbọ́n èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ní ti ọba tí ó jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ Dafidi àti ní ti gbogbo ènìyàn tó ṣẹ́kù ní ìlú yìí; àní ní ti àwọn ènìyàn yín tí kò bá yín lọ sí ìgbèkùn,
For thus - he says Yahweh concerning the king who sits to [the] throne of David and concerning all the people which dwells in the city this countrymen your who not they went out with you in the exile.
17 bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, báyìí ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí pé, “Èmi yóò rán idà, ìyàn àti àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn sí àárín wọn; Èmi yóò ṣe wọ́n bí èso ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ búburú tí kò ṣe é jẹ.
Thus he says Yahweh of hosts here I [am] about to send on them the sword famine and pestilence and I will make them like figs rotten which not they will be eaten from badness.
18 Èmi yóò fi idà, ìyàn àti àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn lépa wọn, Èmi yóò sì sọ wọ́n di ìríra lójú gbogbo ìjọba ayé, fún ègún, àti ìyanu, àti ẹ̀sín, àti ẹ̀gàn láàrín gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ayé, ní ibi tí Èmi yóò lé wọn sí.
And I will pursue after them with the sword with famine and with pestilence and I will make them (into a terror *Q(K)*) to all - [the] kingdoms of the earth into a curse and into a waste and into a hissing and into a reproach among all the nations where I have banished them there.
19 Nítorí wọ́n kọ̀ láti gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ mi,” ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run wí. Ọ̀rọ̀ tí mo tún ti ẹnu àwọn ìránṣẹ́ mi wòlíì sọ ní ẹ̀yin tí ń ṣe àtìpó kò gbọ́ ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run wí.
Because that not they listened to words my [the] utterance of Yahweh [those] whom I sent to them servants my the prophets rising early and sending and not you listened [the] utterance of Yahweh.
20 Nítorí náà, gbogbo ẹ̀yin ìgbèkùn, ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, ẹ̀yin tí mo rán lọ kúrò ní Jerusalẹmu lọ sí Babeli.
And you hear [the] word of Yahweh O all the exile[s] whom I sent from Jerusalem Babylon towards.
21 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọ́run Israẹli sọ nípa Ahabu ọmọ Kolaiah àti nípa Sedekiah ọmọ Maaseiah tí wọ́n ń sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ èké fún un yín lórúkọ mi: “Èmi yóò fi wọ́n lé Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli lọ́wọ́. Òun yóò sì gba ẹ̀mí wọn ní ìṣẹ́jú yìí gan an.
Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel concerning Ahab [the] son of Kolaiah and to Zedekiah [the] son of Maaseiah who are prophesying to you in name my falsehood here I - [am] about to give them in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and he will strike down them to eyes your.
22 Nítorí tiwọn, ègún yìí yóò ran gbogbo àwọn àtìpó tó wà ní ilẹ̀ Babeli láti Juda: ‘Olúwa yóò ṣe yín bí i Sedekiah àti Ahabu tí ọba Babeli dáná sun.’
And it will be taken from them a curse by all [the] exile[s] of Judah who [are] in Babylon saying may he make you Yahweh like Zedekiah and like Ahab whom he roasted them [the] king of Babylon in the fire.
23 Nítorí wọ́n ti ṣe ibi ní ilé Israẹli, wọ́n ti ṣe àgbèrè pẹ̀lú àwọn ìyàwó aládùúgbò wọn, àti ní orúkọ mi ni wọ́n ti ṣe èké, èyí tí Èmi kò rán wọn láti ṣe. Ṣùgbọ́n, Èmi mọ àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí, mo sì jẹ́ ẹlẹ́rìí sí i,” ni Olúwa wí.
Because that they did folly in Israel and they committed adultery [the] wives of neighbors their and they spoke a word in name my falsehood which not I commanded them and I ([am he] who knows *Q(K)*) and a witness [the] utterance of Yahweh.
24 Wí fún Ṣemaiah tí í ṣe Nehalami pé,
And to Shemaiah the Nehelamite you will say saying.
25 “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Alágbára Israẹli wí: Ìwọ fi lẹ́tà ránṣẹ́ sí gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ní Jerusalẹmu sí Sefaniah ọmọ Maaseiah tí í ṣe àlùfáà ní orúkọ mi; ó sì sọ fún Sefaniah wí pé,
Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel saying because that you you sent in own name your letters to all the people which [is] in Jerusalem and to Zephaniah [the] son of Maaseiah the priest and to all the priests saying.
26 ‘Olúwa ti yàn ọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àlùfáà rọ́pò Jehoiada láti máa jẹ́ alákòóso ilé Olúwa, kí o máa fi èyíkéyìí nínú àwọn aṣiwèrè tó bá ṣe bí i wòlíì si inú àgò irin.
Yahweh he has made you priest in place of Jehoiada the priest to be overseers [the] house of Yahweh to every person [who] is mad and [who] prophesies and you will put him into the stock[s] and into the iron collar.
27 Nítorí náà, èéṣe tí o kò fi bá Jeremiah ará Anatoti wí. Ẹni tí ó ń dúró bí i wòlíì láàrín yín?
And therefore why? not have you rebuked Jeremiah the Anathothite who is prophesying to you.
28 Ó ti rán iṣẹ́ yìí sí wa ni Babeli wí pé, àtìpó náà yóò pẹ́ kí ó tó parí, nítorí náà, ẹ kọ́ ilé kí ẹ sì máa gbé ibẹ̀, ẹ dá oko, kí ẹ sì máa jẹ èso ohun ọ̀gbìn oko yín.’”
For since he has sent to us Babylon saying [will be] a long [time] it build houses and dwell and plant gardens and eat produce their.
29 Sefaniah àlùfáà ka lẹ́tà náà sí etí ìgbọ́ Jeremiah tí í ṣe wòlíì.
And he read aloud Zephaniah the priest the letter this in [the] ears of Jeremiah the prophet.
30 Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Jeremiah wá wí pé,
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah saying.
31 “Rán iṣẹ́ yìí sí gbogbo àwọn ìgbèkùn wí pé: ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí ní ti Ṣemaiah, ará Nehalami: Nítorí pé Ṣemaiah ti sọtẹ́lẹ̀ fún un yín, ṣùgbọ́n èmi kò ran an, tí òun sì ń mú u yín gbẹ́kẹ̀lé èké.
Send to all the exile[s] saying thus he says Yahweh concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite because that he has prophesied to you Shemaiah and I not I sent him and he has made rely you on falsehood.
32 Nítorí náà báyìí ni Olúwa wí: Wò ó, èmi yóò bẹ Ṣemaiah, ará Nehalami wò, àti irú-ọmọ rẹ̀; òun kì yóò ní ọkùnrin kan láti máa gbé àárín ènìyàn yìí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì yóò rí rere náà tí èmi yóò ṣe fún àwọn ènìyàn mi ni Olúwa wí, nítorí ó ti ti kéde ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí mi.’”
Therefore thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to visit [judgment] on Shemaiah the Nehelamite and on offspring his not he will belong to him anyone - dwelling - in among the people this and not he will look on the good which I [will be] doing for people my [the] utterance of Yahweh for rebellion he has spoken on Yahweh.
