1Nga simusla leta se nu sin mwet tol, mwet palu, mwet kol lun mwet uh, ac mwet nukewa ma Nebuchadnezzar el usla liki acn Jerusalem nu ke sruoh in acn Babylonia.
1This is the text of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem to the surviving elders among the exiles and to the priests, the prophets, and all the others Nebuchadnezzar had carried into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon.
2Nga simusla tukun pacl se Tokosra Jehoiachin, wi nina kial, mwet leum inkul fulat, mwet kol lun Judah ac Jerusalem, mwet usrnguk in sroasr, ac mwet pah in orekma ke osra elos utukla nu in sruoh.
2(This was after King Jeconiah, the queen mother, the court officials, the officials of Judah and Jerusalem, the craftsmen, and the metalsmiths had been exiled from Jerusalem.)
3Nga sang leta sac nu sel Elasah wen natul Shaphan, ac Gemariah wen natul Hilkiah, su Tokosra Zedekiah lun Judah el ac supwala nu yorol Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia. Pa inge kas ke leta sac:
3The letter was entrusted to Elasah son of Shaphan and Gemariah son of Hilkiah, whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent to King Nebuchadnezzar in Babylon. It stated:
4“ LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, El fahk nu sin mwet nukewa ma El lela Nebuchadnezzar elan usla liki Jerusalem nu ke sruoh in Babylonia:
4This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says to all the exiles who were carried away from Jerusalem to Babylon:
5‘Kowos in musaela lohm suwos ac okaki we. Yukwiya ima ac mongo ke fokin ima inge.
5“Build houses and settle down. Plant gardens and eat their produce.
6Payukyak ac oswela tulik. Na sang tulik nutuwos an in payukyak, tuh in oasr pac tulik natulos. Enenu kowos in puseni ac tia pueni.
6Take wives and have sons and daughters. Take wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, so that they too may have sons and daughters. Multiply there; do not decrease.
7Kowos orekma in akwoye siti ma nga supwekowosla in mwet sruoh we. Pre kaclos nu sik, mweyen elos fin kapkapak, na kowos ac kapkapak pac.
7Seek the prosperity of the city to which I have sent you as exiles. Pray to the LORD on its behalf, for if it prospers, you too will prosper.”
8Nga, LEUM GOD lun Israel, akasmakye kowos in tiana lela mwet palu su muta inmasrlowos, ku kutepacna mwet su fahk mu ku in palye pacl fahsru, in kiapwekowos. Nimet kowos lohang nu ke mweme lalos.
8For this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: “Do not be deceived by the prophets and diviners among you, and do not listen to the dreams you elicit from them.
9Elos fahk kas na kikiap Inek. Nga tiana supwalos. Nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.’
9For they are falsely prophesying to you in My name; I have not sent them, declares the LORD.”
10“ LEUM GOD El fahk, ‘Ke yac itngoul lun Babylonia inge ac safla uh, nga fah akkalemye pakomuta luk nu suwos, ac akpwayei wulela luk in folokinkowosme nu yen suwos.
10For this is what the LORD says: “When Babylon’s seventy years are complete, I will attend to you and confirm My promise to restore you to this place.
11Nga mukena pa etu ma nga akoo nu suwos — akoo luk uh pa in oru tuh kowos in kapkapak, ac tia in kunauskowosla; ac in sot pacl wo ma kowos finsrak kac.
11For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you a future and a hope.
12In pacl sacn kowos ac fah pang nu sik. Kowos ac tuku pre nu sik, ac nga fah topuk kowos.
12Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.
13Kowos ac sukyu ac fah koneyuyak, mweyen kowos ac sukyu ke insiowos na pwaye.
13You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.
14Aok, nga fahk mu kowos ac koneyuyak, ac nga fah folokinkowosla nu yen suwos. Nga fah uskowoseni liki mutunfacl nukewa ac liki acn nukewa ma nga akfahsryekowoselik nu we, ac nga fah folokinkowosme nu in facl se nga supwekowosla liki nu ke sruoh. Nga, LEUM GOD , pa fahk ma inge.’
14I will be found by you, declares the LORD, and I will restore you from captivity and gather you from all the nations and places to which I have banished you, declares the LORD. I will restore you to the place from which I sent you into exile.”
15“Kowos fahk mu oasr mwet palu LEUM GOD El tuh sot nu suwos in Babylonia.
15Because you may say, “The LORD has raised up for us prophets in Babylon,”
16Porongo ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke tokosra su kol tokosrai ma David el tuh leumi, ac ke mwet in siti se inge — aok, mwet in sou lowos su tia wi kowos utukla nu in sruoh.
16this is what the LORD says about the king who sits on David’s throne and all the people who remain in this city, your brothers who did not go with you into exile—
17LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk, ‘Nga ac use mweun, sracl, ac mas upa nu faclos, ac nga fah oru elos in oana fig ma arulana kolukla, tia ku in mongo.
17this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “I will send against them sword and famine and plague, and I will make them like rotten figs, so bad they cannot be eaten.
18Nga fah oru tuh mweun, sracl, ac mas upa, in ukwalos na, ac mutunfacl nukewa faclu ac fah sangengla ke elos ac liye uh. Yen nukewa nga akfahsryeloselik nu we, mwet uh ac fah lut ac arulana sangeng ke ma sikyak nu selos. Mwet uh ac fah isrunulos, ac orekmakin inelos in mwe selnga lalos.
18I will pursue them with sword and famine and plague. I will make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth—a curse, a desolation, and an object of scorn and reproach among all the nations to which I banish them.
19Ma inge ac sikyak nu selos mweyen elos tia akos kas su nga supuna nu yorolos sin mwet kulansap luk mwet palu. Elos tiana lungse lohng.
19I will do this because they have not listened to My words, declares the LORD, which I sent to them again and again through My servants the prophets. And neither have you exiles listened, declares the LORD.”
20Kowos nukewa su nga supwala nu ke sruoh Babylonia, porongo ma nga, LEUM GOD , fahk nu suwos.’
20So hear the word of the LORD, all you exiles I have sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon.
21“ LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, El kaskas kacl Ahab wen natul Kolaiah, ac kacl Zedekiah wen natul Maaseiah, su fahkot kas kikiap nu suwos Inen LEUM GOD . El fahk mu El ac eisalosyang nu in paol Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia, su ac fah onelosi ye motowos.
21This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says about Ahab son of Kolaiah and Zedekiah son of Maaseiah, who are prophesying to you lies in My name: “I will deliver them to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he will kill them before your very eyes.
22Ke mwet sruoh ma utukla liki acn Jerusalem nu Babylonia elos ac selngawi sie mwet, elos ac fahk, ‘Lela LEUM GOD Elan oru nu sum oana El oru nu sel Zedekiah ac Ahab, su tokosra lun Babylonia el munanla ke eltal moulna!’
22Because of them, all the exiles of Judah who are in Babylon will use this curse: ‘May the LORD make you like Zedekiah and Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire!’
23Pa inge ma ac sikyak nu selos ke sripen ma koluk na yohk elos oru — elos orek kosro yurin mutan kien mwet tulan lalos, ac fahkak kas na kikiap Inen LEUM GOD . Ma inge lain ma lungse lun LEUM GOD . El etu ma elos oru, ac El orek loh lainulos. LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.”
23For they have committed an outrage in Israel by committing adultery with the wives of their neighbors and speaking lies in My name, which I did not command them to do. I am He who knows, and I am a witness, declares the LORD.”
24Nu sel Shemaiah, mwet Nehelam, kom fah fahk,
24You are to tell Shemaiah the Nehelamite that
25“Ouinge LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, El fahk: Kom tuh supwala leta se inem sifacna nu sin mwet nukewa su muta Jerusalem, ac nu sel Zephaniah, mwet tol wen natul Maaseiah, ac nu sin mwet tol nukewa, ac fahk,
25this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: “In your own name you have sent out letters to all the people of Jerusalem, to the priest Zephaniah son of Maaseiah, and to all the priests. You said to Zephaniah:
26‘ LEUM GOD El oru kom in sie mwet tol in aolul Jehoiada, ac inge kom pa kol mwet karingin Tempul uh. Ma kunom in liye lah kutena mwet wel ma oru mu el sie mwet palu, in fah kapiri el in sein, wi sie kala osra rauneak inkwawal.
26‘The LORD has appointed you priest in place of Jehoiada, to be the chief officer in the house of the LORD, responsible for any madman who acts like a prophet—you must put him in stocks and neck irons.
27Efu ku kom tia oru ouinge nu sel Jeremiah mwet Anathoth, su kaskas oana sie mwet palu nu sin mwet uh?
27So now, why have you not rebuked Jeremiah of Anathoth, who poses as a prophet among you?
28Enenu in tulokinyuki el mweyen el fahk nu sin mwet ma muta Babylonia mu elos ac fah mwet sruoh ke pacl na loeloes, ac elos in musa lohm, oakwuki we, yukwiya ima lalos, ac kang fahko kac’”
28For he has sent to us in Babylon, claiming: Since the exile will be lengthy, build houses and settle down; plant gardens and eat their produce.’”
29Zephaniah el riti leta sac nu sik,
29(Zephaniah the priest, however, had read this letter to Jeremiah the prophet.)
30na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik
30Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
31in sapwala kas inge nu sin mwet sruoh nukewa, ac fahk: “Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk kacl Shemaiah mwet Nehelam: Mweyen Shemaiah el fahk kas in palu nu suwos ke nga tia supwal, ac oru kowos lulalfongi kas kikiap lal,
31“Send a message telling all the exiles what the LORD says concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite. Because Shemaiah has prophesied to you—though I did not send him—and has made you trust in a lie,
32nga fah kael Shemaiah ac fwilin tulik natul. Wangin sie mwet lal ac fah moul in liye ma wo ma nga ac oru nu sin mwet luk, mweyen el tuh sapkin mwet uh in lainyu. Nga, LEUM GOD , pa fahk ma inge.”
32this is what the LORD says: ‘I will surely punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite and his descendants. He will have no one left among this people, nor will he see the good that I will bring to My people, declares the LORD, for he has preached rebellion against the LORD.’”
