Jeremiah 39
1 Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí a kó Jerusalẹmu, ní ọdún kẹsànán Sedekiah, ọba Juda, nínú oṣù kẹwàá, Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli gbógun ti Jerusalẹmu pẹ̀lú gbogbo ogun rẹ̀, wọ́n sì dó tì í.
In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army came against Jerusalem, and besieged it.
2 Ní ọjọ́ kẹsànán, oṣù kẹrin ọdún kọkànlá Sedekiah, ni a wó odi ìlú náà.
In the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a breach was made in the city.
3 Nígbà náà ni gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè ọba Babeli wá, wọ́n sì jókòó ní àárín ẹnu ibodè, àní Nergali-Ṣareseri ti Samgari, Nebo-Sarsikimu olórí ìwẹ̀fà, Nergali-Ṣareseri, olórí amòye, pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè ọba Babeli yóò kú.
All the princes of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the middle gate: Nergal Sharezer, Samgarnebo, Sarsechim the Rabsaris, Nergal Sharezer the Rabmag, with all the rest of the princes of the king of Babylon.
4 Nígbà tí Sedekiah ọba Juda àti àwọn ọmọ-ogun rí wọn, wọ́n sá, wọ́n kúrò ní ìlú ní alẹ́, wọ́n gba ọ̀nà ọgbà ọba lọ láàrín ẹnu ibodè pẹ̀lú odi méjì, wọ́n dojúkọ aginjù.
When Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, then they fled and went out of the city by night, by the way of the king’s garden, through the gate between the two walls; and he went out toward the Arabah.
5 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí àwọn ọmọ-ogun Babeli lé wọn, wọ́n bá Sedekiah láàrín aginjù Jeriko. Wọ́n mú un ní ìgbèkùn, wọ́n sì mú u tọ Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli àti Ribla ní ilẹ̀ Hamati, níbi tí wọ́n ti ṣe ìdájọ́ rẹ̀.
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. When they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he pronounced judgment on him.
6 Níbẹ̀ ní Ribla, ni ọba Babeli ti dúńbú àwọn ọmọ Sedekiah lójú rẹ̀, tí ó sì tún pa gbogbo àwọn ọlọ́lá ilẹ̀ Juda.
Then the king of Babylon killed Zedekiah’s sons in Riblah before his eyes. The king of Babylon also killed all the nobles of Judah.
7 Nígbà náà ni ó fọ́ ojú Sedekiah, ó sì dè é pẹ̀lú ẹ̀wọ̀n láti gbé e lọ sí ilẹ̀ Babeli.
Moreover he put out Zedekiah’s eyes and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
8 Àwọn Babeli dáná sun ààfin ọba àti ilé àwọn ènìyàn, wọ́n sì wó odi Jerusalẹmu.
The Chaldeans burned the king’s house and the people’s houses with fire and broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
9 Nebusaradani olórí àwọn ọmọ-ogun mú lọ sí ìgbèkùn Babeli pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn tí ó ṣẹ́kù nínú ìlú.
Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the rest of the people who remained in the city, the deserters also who fell away to him, and the rest of the people who remained.
10 Ṣùgbọ́n Nebusaradani olórí ogun fi àwọn aláìní sílẹ̀ ní Juda, àwọn tí kò ní ohun kankan ní àkókò náà, ó fún wọn ní ọgbà àjàrà àti oko.
But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, who had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.
11 Nísinsin yìí, Nebukadnessari ọba àwọn Babeli pàṣẹ lórí Jeremiah, láti ọ̀dọ̀ Nebusaradani olórí ogun wá wí pé:
Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon commanded Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard concerning Jeremiah, saying,
12 “Ẹ gbé e, kí ẹ sì bojútó o. Ẹ má ṣe ṣe ohun búburú fún un, ṣùgbọ́n ohunkóhun tó bá béèrè ni kí ẹ fi fún un.”
“Take him and take care of him. Do him no harm; but do to him even as he tells you.”
13 Bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ pẹ̀lú, Nebusaradani balógun ìṣọ́, àti Nebusaradani olórí ìwẹ̀fà, àti Nergali-Ṣareseri, olórí amòye àti gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè ọba Babeli,
So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, Nebushazban, Rabsaris, and Nergal Sharezer, Rabmag, and all the chief officers of the king of Babylon
14 ránṣẹ́ láti mú Jeremiah kúrò nínú túbú. Wọ́n gbé e lọ fún Gedaliah ọmọ Ahikamu ọmọ Ṣafani láti mú padà lọ sí ilé àti máa wà pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
sent and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guard, and committed him to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should bring him home. So he lived among the people.
15 Nígbà tí Jeremiah wà nínú túbú, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ ọ́ wá wí pé:
Now the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah while he was shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
16 “Lọ sọ fún Ebedimeleki ará Kuṣi, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí: Èmi ṣetán láti mú ọ̀rọ̀ mi ṣẹ lórí ìlú yìí nípa àjálù kì í ṣe àlàáfíà. Ní àkókò náà ni yóò ṣẹ lójú rẹ.
“Go, and speak to Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, ‘The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will bring my words on this city for evil, and not for good; and they will be accomplished before you in that day.
17 Ṣùgbọ́n, Èmi yóò gbà ọ́ lọ́jọ́ náà ni Olúwa wí. A kò ní fi ọ́ lé ọwọ́ àwọn tí o bẹ̀rù.
But I will deliver you in that day,” says the LORD; “and you will not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid.
18 Èmi yóò gbà ọ́ là; o kò ní ṣubú láti ipa idà; ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ yóò sá àsálà fún ẹ̀mí rẹ, nítorí pé ìwọ ní ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé nínú mi, ni Olúwa wí.’”
For I will surely save you. You will not fall by the sword, but you will escape with your life, because you have put your trust in me,” says the LORD.’”
