1Shephatiah wen natul Mattan, ac Gedaliah wen natul Pashhur, ac Jehucal wen natul Shelemiah, ac Pashhur wen natul Malchiah, elos lohngak lah nga fahk nu sin mwet uh lah
1Shephatiah the son of Mattan, Gedaliah the son of Pashhur, Jucal the son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur the son of Malchijah heard the words that Jeremiah spoke to all the people, saying,
2LEUM GOD El fahk mu, “Kutena mwet su mutana in siti uh fah misa ke mweun ku ke masrinsral ku ke mas upa. A kutena mwet su illa ac sifacna eisalosyang nu inpoun mwet Babylonia fah tia anwuki — elos ac mukaimtalla tuh elos ac moul.”
2“The LORD says, ‘He who remains in this city will die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, but he who goes out to the Chaldeans will live. He will escape with his life and he will live.’
3Nga oayapa fahk nu selos lah LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fah sang siti se inge nu inpoun mwet mweun lun Babylonia, ac elos fah eisla.”
3The LORD says, ‘This city will surely be given into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, and he will take it.’”
4Na mwet leum elos som nu yorol tokosra ac fahk, “Enenu mwet se inge in anwuki. Ke el kaskas ouinge el akmunasye insien mwet mweun in siti uh, ac el oayapa akmunasye insien mwet nukewa ma lula in siti uh. El tia srike elan kasru mwet uh; el lungsena fahk ma in akkolukyalos.”
4Then the princes said to the king, “Please let this man be put to death, because he weakens the hands of the men of war who remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words to them; for this man doesn’t seek the welfare of this people, but harm.”
5Na Tokosra Zedekiah el topuk, “Wona. Oru ma kowos lungse oru nu sel an. Nga ac tia ikolkowosi.”
5Zedekiah the king said, “Behold, he is in your hand; for the king can’t do anything to oppose you.”
6Ouinge elos usyula ac kukinyuwi ke sucl nu in lufin kof se lal Fisrak Malchiah, ma oan inkul sin tokosra. Wangin kof in luf sac, a fohk furarrar na, ac nga tili nu loac.
6Then they took Jeremiah and threw him into the dungeon of Malchijah the king’s son, that was in the court of the guard. They let down Jeremiah with cords. In the dungeon there was no water, but mire; and Jeremiah sank in the mire.
7Ebedmelech, sie mwet Ethiopia ac el sie eunuch su orekma inkul fulat sin tokosra, el lohng lah elos filiyuwi in lufin kof uh. In pacl sac tokosra el muta ke nien nununku ke Mutunpot Benjamin.
7Now when Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, a eunuch, who was in the king’s house, heard that they had put Jeremiah in the dungeon (the king was then sitting in Benjamin’s gate),
8Ouinge Ebedmelech el som nu we ac fahk nu sel tokosra,
8Ebedmelech went out of the king’s house, and spoke to the king, saying,
9“Leum Fulat luk, arulana koluk ma mwet inge oru ke elos kukinilya mwet palu Jeremiah nu in lufin kof sac. El ac misa we ke masrinsral, mweyen wanginla mongo in siti uh.”
9“My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the dungeon. He is likely to die in the place where he is, because of the famine; for there is no more bread in the city.”
10Na tokosra el sapkin nu sel Ebedmelech elan eis tolu mwet in welul amakinyuyak liki luf sac meet liki nga misa.
10Then the king commanded Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, “Take from here thirty men with you, and take up Jeremiah the prophet out of the dungeon, before he dies.”
11Ouinge Ebedmelech el us mwet inge som nu nien filma ke lohm sin tokosra, ac eis kutu mahn nuknuk ac kwiya ke sucl nu yuruk.
11So Ebedmelech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took from there rags and worn-out garments, and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah.
12El sap nga in sang mahn nuknuk ah nu ye pouk, sucl ah in tia kanteyuwi. Nga oru oana,
12Ebedmelech the Ethiopian said to Jeremiah, “Now put these rags and worn-out garments under your armpits under the cords.” Jeremiah did so.
13ac elos amakinyuyak liki luf sac. Toko elos sap nga muta ke kalkal lun mwet san ke inkul lun tokosra.
13So they lifted Jeremiah up with the cords, and took him up out of the dungeon; and Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.
14Ke sie pac pacl ah, Tokosra Zedekiah el sap in utuku nga nu yorol, ke nien utyak se aktolu nu in Tempul, ac el fahk, “Oasr ma nga ke siyuk sum, na kom in fahkma nufon pwayeiya uh.”
14Then Zedekiah the king sent and took Jeremiah the prophet to himself into the third entry that is in the LORD’s house. Then the king said to Jeremiah, “I will ask you something. Hide nothing from me.”
15Na nga topuk, “Nga fin fahkot in suwohs, kom ac uniyuwi. Ac nga finne sot kas in kasrekom, kom ac tiana lohang nu kac.”
15Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, “If I declare it to you, will you not surely put me to death? If I give you counsel, you will not listen to me.”
16Na Tokosra Zedekiah el wulema nu sik in lukma, “Nga fulahk ke Inen God moul, God se su ase moul nu sesr, lah nga fah tia unikomi ku eiskomyang nu inpoun mwet ma kena unikomi.”
16So Zedekiah the king swore secretly to Jeremiah, saying, “As the LORD lives, who made our souls, I will not put you to death, neither will I give you into the hand of these men who seek your life.”
17Na nga fahkang nu sel Zedekiah lah LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, El fahk, “Kom fin sifacna eiskomyang nu sin Tokosra Babylonia ac mwet lal, kom ac tia misa, ac siti se inge ac tia isisyak. Kom, ac sou lom kewa, ac fah moul.
17Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, “The LORD, the God of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘If you will go out to the king of Babylon’s princes, then your soul will live, and this city will not be burned with fire. You will live, along with your house.
18Tusruktu kom fin tia eiskomyang nu selos, na siti se inge ac fah itukyang nu inpaolos, ac elos ac fah esukak, na kom ac tia ku in kaingla lukelos.”
18But if you will not go out to the king of Babylon’s princes, then this city will be given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they will burn it with fire, and you won’t escape out of their hand.’”
19Tusruktu tokosra el fahk, “Nga sangeng sin mwet lasr ma som liki kut nu yurin mwet Babylonia. Sahp ac ku in itukyang nga nu selos ac elos ac akkeokyeyu.”
19Zedekiah the king said to Jeremiah, “I am afraid of the Jews who have defected to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hand, and they mock me.”
20Na nga fahk, “Kom ac fah tia itukyang nu inpaolos. Nga kwafe sum kom in akos kas lun LEUM GOD ; na ma nukewa ac fah wo nu sum, ac kom ac moulna.
20But Jeremiah said, “They won’t deliver you. Obey, I beg you, the LORD’s voice, in that which I speak to you; so it will be well with you, and your soul will live.
21Tusruktu LEUM GOD El akkalemye nu sik in sie aruruma ma ac sikyak kom fin srunga eiskomyang nu selos.
21But if you refuse to go out, this is the word that the LORD has shown me:
22In aruruma sac nga liye mutan lula nukewa inkul fulat sin tokosra Judah, kokola elos nu yurin mwet fulat lun Tokosra Babylonia. Porongo ma elos fahk ke elos fahla: ‘Mwet kawuk saok lun tokosra kifasulla, Elos toanya ma el nunku. Ac inge, ke nial tilla in fohk furarrar, Mwet kawuk lal elos som lukel.’”
22‘Behold, all the women who are left in the king of Judah’s house will be brought out to the king of Babylon’s princes, and those women will say, “Your familiar friends have turned on you, and have prevailed over you. Your feet are sunk in the mire, they have turned away from you.”
23Na nga tafwela ac fahk, “Mutan kiom nukewa ac tulik nutum nukewa ac fah utukla nu yurin mwet Babylonia, ac kom sifacna fah tia ku in kaingla lukelos. Kom ac fah utukla mwet kapir sin tokosra lun Babylonia, ac siti se inge ac fah isisyak nwe ke apatla.”
23They will bring out all your wives and your children to the Chaldeans. You won’t escape out of their hand, but will be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon. You will cause this city to be burned with fire.’”
24Zedekiah el topuk, “Nimet srumun nu sin mwet saya ma kut sramsram kac inge, na kom fah tia fosrnga ke moul lom.
24Then Zedekiah said to Jeremiah, “Let no man know of these words, and you won’t die.
25Mwet leum inge fin lohng lah nga sramsram nu sum, elos ac tuku siyuk sum lah mea kut srumun ah. Elos ac wuleot mu elos ac tia unikomi kom fin fahkang ma nukewa nu selos.
25But if the princes hear that I have talked with you, and they come to you, and tell you, ‘Declare to us now what you have said to the king; don’t hide it from us, and we will not put you to death; also tell us what the king said to you;’
26Fahk na nu selos mu kom kwafe nga in tia folokinkomla nu in presin in lohm sel Jonathan, mweyen kom ac tuh misa we.”
26then you shall tell them, ‘I presented my supplication before the king, that he would not cause me to return to Jonathan’s house, to die there.’”
27Na mwet leum nukewa elos tuku siyuk sik, na nga fahk oana ma tokosra el fahk nga in tuh fahk ah. Wangin ma elos ku in oru, mweyen wangin mwet lohng sramsram se lasr ah.
27Then all the princes came to Jeremiah, and asked him; and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they stopped speaking with him, for the matter was not perceived.
28Na filiyuki nga in kalkal lun mwet san ke inkul sin tokosra nwe ke na len se ma sruoh acn Jerusalem.
28So Jeremiah stayed in the court of the guard until the day that Jerusalem was taken.
