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.
1Now these are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem to the residue of the elders of the captivity, and to the priests, to the prophets, and to all the people whom Nebuchadnezzar had carried away captive 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(after Jeconiah the king, the queen mother, the eunuchs, the princes of Judah and Jerusalem, the craftsmen, and the smiths had departed 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:
3by the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent to Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon). It said:
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:
4The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says to all the captives whom I have caused to be carried away captive 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 dwell in them. Plant gardens and eat their fruit.
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 father sons and daughters. Take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters. Multiply there, and don’t be diminished.
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 peace of the city where I have caused you to be carried away captive, and pray to the LORD for it; for in its peace you will have peace.”
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 the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Don’t let your prophets who are among you and your diviners deceive you. Don’t listen to your dreams which you cause to be dreamed.
9Elos fahk kas na kikiap Inek. Nga tiana supwalos. Nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.’
9For they prophesy falsely to you in my name. I have not sent them,” says 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 the LORD says, “After seventy years are accomplished for Babylon, I will visit you and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return 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 thoughts that I think toward you,” says the LORD, “thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.
12In pacl sacn kowos ac fah pang nu sik. Kowos ac tuku pre nu sik, ac nga fah topuk kowos.
12You shall call on me, and you shall go 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 shall 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,” says the LORD, “and I will turn again your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places where I have driven you,” says the LORD. “I will bring you again to the place from where I caused you to be carried away captive.”
15“Kowos fahk mu oasr mwet palu LEUM GOD El tuh sot nu suwos in Babylonia.
15Because you have said, “The LORD has raised us up 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.
16the LORD says concerning the king who sits on David’s throne, and concerning all the people who dwell in this city, your brothers who haven’t gone with you into captivity,
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.
17the LORD of Armies says: “Behold, I will send on them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like rotten figs that can’t be eaten, they are so bad.
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 after them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth, to be an object of horror, an astonishment, a hissing, and a reproach among all the nations where I have driven 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.
19because they have not listened to my words,” says the LORD, “with which I sent to them my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but you would not hear,” says the LORD.
20Kowos nukewa su nga supwala nu ke sruoh Babylonia, porongo ma nga, LEUM GOD , fahk nu suwos.’
20Hear therefore the LORD’s word, all you captives whom 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.
21The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says concerning Ahab the son of Kolaiah, and concerning Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, who prophesy a lie to you in my name: “Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and he will kill them before your 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!’
22A curse will be taken up about them by all the captives of Judah who are in Babylon, saying, ‘The LORD make you like Zedekiah and like 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.”
23because they have done foolish things in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbors’ wives, and have spoken words in my name falsely, which I didn’t command them. I am he who knows, and am witness,” says the LORD.
24Nu sel Shemaiah, mwet Nehelam, kom fah fahk,
24Concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite you shall speak, saying,
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,
25“The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says, ‘Because you have sent letters in your own name to all the people who are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, and to all the priests, saying,
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 made you priest in the place of Jehoiada the priest, that there may be officers in the LORD’s house, for every man who is crazy and makes himself a prophet, that you should put him in the stocks and in shackles.
27Efu ku kom tia oru ouinge nu sel Jeremiah mwet Anathoth, su kaskas oana sie mwet palu nu sin mwet uh?
27Now therefore, why have you not rebuked Jeremiah of Anathoth, who makes himself a prophet to 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’”
28because he has sent to us in Babylon, saying, The captivity is long. Build houses, and dwell in them. Plant gardens, and eat their fruit?”’”
29Zephaniah el riti leta sac nu sik,
29Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the hearing of Jeremiah the prophet.
30na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik
30Then the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
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 to all of the captives, saying, ‘The LORD says concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite: “Because Shemaiah has prophesied to you, and I didn’t send him, and he has caused you to 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.”
32therefore the LORD says, “Behold, I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite and his offspring. He will not have a man to dwell among this people. He won’t see the good that I will do to my people,” says the LORD, “because he has spoken rebellion against the LORD.”’”
