Read Jeremiah 38

1 NIGBANA ni Ṣefatiah, ọmọ Mattani, ati Gedaliah, ọmọ Paṣuri, ati Jukali, ọmọ Ṣelemiah, ati Paṣuri ọmọ Malkiah, gbọ́ gbogbo ọ̀rọ ti Jeremiah ti sọ fun gbogbo enia, wipe,

1 Then Shephatiah the son of Mattan, and Gedaliah the son of Pashur, and Jucal the son of Shelemiah, and Pashur the son of Malchiah, heard the words that Jeremiah had spoken unto all the people, saying,

2 Bayi li Oluwa wi pe, ẹniti o ba joko ni ilu yi yio kú nipa idà, nipa ìyan, ati nipa àjakalẹ-àrun, ẹniti o ba si jade tọ̀ awọn ara Kaldea lọ yio yè; a o si fi ẹmi rẹ́ fun u bi ikogun, yio si yè.

2 Thus saith the LORD, He that remaineth in this city shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: but he that goeth forth to the Chaldeans shall live; for he shall have his life for a prey, and shall live.

3 Bayi li Oluwa wi pe, lõtọ a o fi ilu yi le ọwọ ogun ọba Babeli, ẹniti yio si kó o.

3 Thus saith the LORD, This city shall surely be given into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, which shall take it.

4 Awọn ijoye si sọ fun ọba pe, Jẹ ki a pa ọkunrin yi: nitori bayi li o mu ọwọ awọn ologun ti o kù ni ilu yi rọ, pẹlu ọwọ gbogbo enia, ni sisọ iru ọ̀rọ bayi fun wọn: nitori ọkunrin yi kò wá alafia awọn enia yi, bikoṣe ibi wọn.

4 Therefore the princes said unto the king, We beseech thee, let this man be put to death: for thus he weakeneth the hands of the men of war that remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words unto them: for this man seeketh not the welfare of this people, but the hurt.

5 Sedekiah ọba, si wipe, Wò o, on wà li ọwọ nyin, nitori ọba kò le iṣe ohun kan lẹhin nyin.

5 Then Zedekiah the king said, Behold, he is in your hand: for the king is not he that can do any thing against you.

6 Nwọn si mu Jeremiah, nwọn si sọ ọ sinu iho Malkiah ọmọ Hammeleki, ti o wà li agbala ile-túbu: nwọn fi okun sọ Jeremiah kalẹ sisalẹ. Omi kò si si ninu iho na, bikoṣe ẹrẹ̀: Jeremiah si rì sinu ẹrẹ̀ na.

6 Then took they Jeremiah, and cast him into the dungeon of Malchiah the son of Hammelech, that was in the court of the prison: and they let down Jeremiah with cords. And in the dungeon there was no water, but mire: so Jeremiah sunk in the mire.

7 Nigbati Ebedmeleki, ara Etiopia, iwẹfa kan, ti o wà ni ile ọba, gbọ́ pe, nwọn fi Jeremiah sinu iho: ọba joko nigbana li ẹnu-bode Benjamini;

7 Now when Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, one of the eunuchs which was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremiah in the dungeon; the king then sitting in the gate of Benjamin;

8 Ebedmeleki si jade lati ile ọba lọ, o si sọ fun ọba wipe,

8 Ebed-melech went forth out of the king's house, and spake to the king, saying,

9 Oluwa mi, ọba! awọn ọkunrin wọnyi ti ṣe ibi ni gbogbo eyi ti nwọn ti ṣe si Jeremiah woli pe, nwọn ti sọ ọ sinu iho; ebi yio si fẹrẹ pa a kú ni ibi ti o gbe wà: nitori onjẹ kò si mọ ni ilu.

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; and he is like to die for hunger in the place where he is: for there is no more bread in the city.

10 Nigbana ni ọba paṣẹ fun Ebedmeleki, ara Etiopia, wipe, Mu ọgbọ̀n enia lọwọ lati ihin lọ, ki o si fà Jeremiah soke lati inu iho, ki o to kú.

10 Then the king commanded Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying, Take from hence thirty men with thee, and take up Jeremiah the prophet out of the dungeon, before he die.

11 Ebedmeleki si mu awọn enia na pẹlu rẹ̀, o si lọ si ile ọba labẹ iyara iṣura, o si mu akisa ati oṣuka lati ibẹ wá, o si fi okùn sọ̀ wọn kalẹ si Jeremiah ninu iho.

11 So Ebed-melech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took thence old cast clouts and old rotten rags, and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah.

12 Ebedmeleki, ara Etiopia, si sọ fun Jeremiah pe, Fi akisa ati oṣuka wọnyi si abẹ abia rẹ, lori okùn. Jeremiah si ṣe bẹ̃.

12 And Ebed-melech the Ethiopian said unto Jeremiah, Put now these old cast clouts and rotten rags under thine armholes under the cords. And Jeremiah did so.

13 Bẹ̃ni nwọn fi okùn fà Jeremiah soke, nwọn si mu u goke lati inu iho wá: Jeremiah si wà ni agbala ile-tubu.

13 So they drew up Jeremiah with cords, and took him up out of the dungeon: and Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison.

14 Nigbana ni Sedekiah, ọba, ranṣẹ, o mu Jeremiah woli, wá sọdọ rẹ̀ si ẹnu-ọ̀na kẹta ti o wà ni ile Oluwa: ọba si wi fun Jeremiah pe, Emi o bi ọ lere ohun kan: máṣe fi nkankan pamọ fun mi.

14 Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took Jeremiah the prophet unto him into the third entry that is in the house of the LORD: and the king said unto Jeremiah, I will ask thee a thing; hide nothing from me.

15 Jeremiah si wi fun Sedekiah pe, Bi emi ba sọ fun ọ, iwọ kì o ha pa mi nitõtọ? bi mo ba si fi imọran fun ọ, iwọ kì yio fetisi ti emi.

15 Then Jeremiah said unto Zedekiah, If I declare it unto thee, wilt thou not surely put me to death? and if I give thee counsel, wilt thou not hearken unto me?

16 Sedekiah, ọba, si bura nikọkọ fun Jeremiah, wipe, Bi Oluwa ti wà, ẹni ti o da ẹmi wa yi, emi kì yio pa ọ, bẹ̃ni emi kì yio fi ọ le ọwọ awọn ọkunrin wọnyi, ti nwá ẹmi rẹ.

16 So Zedekiah the king sware secretly unto Jeremiah, saying, As the LORD liveth, that made us this soul, I will not put thee to death, neither will I give thee into the hand of these men that seek thy life.

17 Nigbana ni Jeremiah sọ fun Sedekiah pe; Bayi li Oluwa Ọlọrun awọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọrun Israeli, wi pe: Bi iwọ o ba jade nitõtọ tọ̀ awọn ijoye ọba Babeli lọ, nigbana ni ọkàn rẹ yio yè, a ki yio si fi iná kun ilu yi; iwọ o si yè ati ile rẹ.

17 Then said Jeremiah unto Zedekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel; If thou wilt assuredly go forth unto the king of Babylon's princes, then thy soul shall live, and this city shall not be burned with fire; and thou shalt live, and thine house:

18 Ṣugbọn bi iwọ kì yio ba jade tọ awọn ijoye ọba Babeli lọ, nigbana ni a o fi ilu yi le ọwọ awọn ara Kaldea, nwọn o si fi iná kun u, iwọ kì yio si sala kuro li ọwọ wọn.

18 But if thou wilt not go forth to the king of Babylon's princes, then shall this city be given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire, and thou shalt not escape out of their hand.

19 Sedekiah ọba, si sọ fun Jeremiah pe, Ẹ̀ru awọn ara Juda ti o ya tọ awọn ara Kaldea mbà mi, ki nwọn ki o má ba fi mi le wọn lọwọ; nwọn a si fi mi ṣẹsin.

19 And Zedekiah the king said unto Jeremiah, I am afraid of the Jews that are fallen to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hand, and they mock me.

20 Ṣugbọn Jeremiah wipe, nwọn kì yio si fi ọ le wọn lọwọ, emi bẹ̀ ọ, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ Oluwa ti mo sọ fun ọ: yio si dara fun ọ, ọkàn rẹ yio si yè.

20 But Jeremiah said, They shall not deliver thee. Obey, I beseech thee, the voice of the LORD, which I speak unto thee: so it shall be well unto thee, and thy soul shall live.

21 Ṣugbọn bi iwọ ba kọ̀ lati jade lọ, eyi li ohun ti Oluwa ti fi hàn mi:

21 But if thou refuse to go forth, this is the word that the LORD hath shewed me:

22 Si wò o, gbogbo awọn obinrin ti o kù ni ile ọba Juda li a o mu tọ̀ awọn ijoye ọba Babeli lọ, awọn obinrin wọnyi yio si wipe, Awọn ọrẹ rẹ ti tàn ọ jẹ, nwọn si ti bori rẹ: ẹsẹ rẹ̀ rì sinu ẹrẹ̀ wayi, nwọn pa ẹhin dà.

22 And, behold, all the women that are left in the king of Judah's house shall be brought forth to the king of Babylon's princes, and those women shall say, Thy friends have set thee on, and have prevailed against thee: thy feet are sunk in the mire, and they are turned away back.

23 Nwọn o si mu gbogbo awọn aya rẹ ati awọn ọmọ rẹ jade tọ awọn ara Kaldea lọ: iwọ kì yio si sala kuro li ọwọ wọn, ọwọ ọba Babeli yio si mu ọ: iwọ o si mu ki nwọn ki o fi iná kun ilu yi.

23 So they shall bring out all thy wives and thy children to the Chaldeans: and thou shalt not escape out of their hand, but shalt be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon: and thou shalt cause this city to be burned with fire.

24 Sedekiah si wi fun Jeremiah pe, Máṣe jẹ ki ẹnikan mọ̀ niti ọ̀rọ wọnyi, ki iwọ má ba kú.

24 Then said Zedekiah unto Jeremiah, Let no man know of these words, and thou shalt not die.

25 Ṣugbọn bi awọn ijoye ba gbọ́ pe emi ti ba ọ sọ̀rọ, bi nwọn ba si wá sọdọ rẹ, ti nwọn sọ fun ọ pe, Sọ fun wa nisisiyi eyi ti iwọ ti sọ fun ọba, máṣe fi pamọ fun wa, awa kì o si pa ọ; ati eyi ti ọba sọ fun ọ pẹlu:

25 But if the princes hear that I have talked with thee, and they come unto thee, and say unto thee, Declare unto us now what thou hast said unto the king, hide it not from us, and we will not put thee to death; also what the king said unto thee:

26 Nigbana ni ki iwọ ki o wi fun wọn pe, Emi mu ẹ̀bẹ mi wá siwaju ọba, pe ki o má mu mi pada lọ si ile Jonatani, lati kú sibẹ.

26 Then thou shalt say unto them, I presented my supplication before the king, that he would not cause me to return to Jonathan's house, to die there.

27 Gbogbo awọn ijoye si tọ̀ Jeremiah wá, nwọn bi i lere: o si sọ fun wọn gẹgẹ bi gbogbo ọ̀rọ wọnyi ti ọba ti palaṣẹ fun u. Bẹ̃ni nwọn dakẹ nwọn si jọ̃rẹ̀; nitori ẹnikan kò gbọ́ ọ̀ran na.

27 Then came all the princes unto Jeremiah, and asked him: and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they left off speaking with him; for the matter was not perceived.

28 Jeremiah si ngbe agbala ile-túbu titi di ọjọ ti a kó Jerusalemu.

28 So Jeremiah abode in the court of the prison until the day that Jerusalem was taken: and he was there when Jerusalem was taken.
