¹ Ọ̀RỌ ti o tọ̀ Jeremiah wá lati ọdọ Oluwa, lẹhin ti Nebusaradani, balogun iṣọ, ti ranṣẹ pè e lati Rama. Nitori nigbati o mu u, a fi ẹwọn dè e lãrin gbogbo awọn igbekun Jerusalemu ati Juda, ti a kó ni ìgbekun lọ si Babeli.

¹ The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, after that Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard had let him go from Ramah, when he had taken him being bound in chains among all that were carried away captive of Jerusalem and Judah, which were carried away captive unto Babylon.

² Balogun iṣọ si mu Jeremiah, o si wi fun u pe, Oluwa, Ọlọrun rẹ, ti sọ ibi yi si ilu yi.

² And the captain of the guard took Jeremiah, and said unto him, The LORD thy God hath pronounced this evil upon this place.

³ Oluwa si ti mu u wá, o si ṣe gẹgẹ bi o ti wi: nitoripe ẹnyin ti ṣẹ̀ si Oluwa, ẹ kò si gbọ́ ohùn rẹ̀, nitorina ni nkan yi ṣe de ba nyin.

³ Now the LORD hath brought it, and done according as he hath said: because ye have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed his voice, therefore this thing is come upon you.

⁴ Njẹ nisisiyi, wò o, mo tú ọ silẹ li oni kuro ninu ẹ̀wọn ti o wà li ọwọ rẹ: bi o ba dara li oju rẹ lati ba mi lọ si Babeli, kalọ, emi o boju to ọ: ṣugbọn bi kò ba dara li oju rẹ lati ba mi lọ si Babeli, jọwọ rẹ̀; wò o, gbogbo ilẹ li o wà niwaju rẹ, ibi ti o ba dara ti o ba si tọ li oju rẹ lati lọ, lọ sibẹ.

⁴ And now, behold, I loose thee this day from the chains which were upon thine hand. If it seem good unto thee to come with me into Babylon, come; and I will look well unto thee: but if it seem ill unto thee to come with me into Babylon, forbear: behold, all the land is before thee: whither it seemeth good and convenient for thee to go, thither go.

⁵ Bi bẹ̃kọ, pada tọ̀ Gedaliah, ọmọ Ahikamu, ọmọ Ṣafani, ẹniti ọba Babeli ti fi jẹ bãlẹ lori ilu Juda, ki o si mã ba a gbe lãrin ọpọ enia, tabi ibikibi ti o ba tọ li oju rẹ, lati lọ, lọ sibẹ̀. Balogun iṣọ si fun u li onjẹ ati ẹbun; o si jọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ lọwọ.

⁵ Now while he was not yet gone back, he said, Go back also to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hath made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people: or go wheresoever it seemeth convenient unto thee to go. So the captain of the guard gave him victuals and a reward, and let him go.

⁶ Jeremiah si lọ sọdọ Gedaliah, ọmọ Ahikamu, ni Mispa; o si mba a gbe lãrin awọn enia, ti o kù ni ilẹ na.

⁶ Then went Jeremiah unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and dwelt with him among the people that were left in the land.

⁷ Njẹ nigbati gbogbo awọn olori ogun, ti o wà li oko, awọn ati awọn ọkunrin wọn, gbọ́ pe ọba Babeli ti fi Gedaliah, ọmọ Ahikamu, jẹ bãlẹ ni ilẹ na, o si ti fi awọn ọkunrin fun u, ati awọn obinrin, ati awọn ọmọde, ati ninu awọn talaka ilẹ na, ninu awọn ti a kò kó lọ ni igbekun si Babeli.

⁷ Now when all the captains of the forces which were in the fields, even they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam governor in the land, and had committed unto him men, and women, and children, and of the poor of the land, of them that were not carried away captive to Babylon;

⁸ Nwọn tọ̀ Gedaliah wá ni Mispa, ani Iṣmaeli, ọmọ Netaniah, ati Johanani, ati Jonatani, awọn ọmọ Karea, ati Seraiah, ọmọ Tanhumeti, ati awọn ọmọ Efai, ara Netofa, ati Jesaniah, ọmọ ara Maaka, awọn ati awọn ọkunrin wọn,

⁸ Then they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan and Jonathan the sons of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and Jezaniah the son of a Maachathite, they and their men.

⁹ Gedaliah, ọmọ Ahikamu, ọmọ Ṣafani, si bura fun wọn ati fun awọn ọkunrin wọn, wipe: Ẹ má bẹ̀ru lati sìn awọn ara Kaldea: ẹ gbe ilẹ̀ na, ki ẹ si mã sin ọba Babeli, yio si dara fun nyin.

⁹ And Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan sware unto them and to their men, saying, Fear not to serve the Chaldeans: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.

¹⁰ Bi o ṣe ti emi, wò o, emi o ma gbe Mispa, lati sìn awọn ara Kaldea, ti yio tọ wa wá; ṣugbọn ẹnyin ẹ kó ọti-waini jọ, ati eso-igi, ati ororo, ki ẹ si fi sinu ohun-elo nyin, ki ẹ si gbe inu ilu nyin ti ẹnyin ti gbà.

¹⁰ As for me, behold, I will dwell at Mizpah to serve the Chaldeans, which will come unto us: but ye, gather ye wine, and summer fruits, and oil, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities that ye have taken.

¹¹ Pẹlupẹlu gbogbo awọn ara Juda, ti o wà ni Moabu, ati lãrin awọn ọmọ Ammoni, ati ni Edomu, ati awọn ti o wà ni gbogbo ilẹ wọnni gbọ́ pe, ọba Babeli ti fi iyokù silẹ fun Juda, ati pe o ti fi Gedaliah, ọmọ Ahikamu, ọmọ Ṣafani, ṣolori wọn;

¹¹ Likewise when all the Jews that were in Moab, and among the Ammonites, and in Edom, and that were in all the countries, heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant of Judah, and that he had set over them Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan;

¹² Gbogbo awọn ara Juda si pada lati ibi gbogbo wá ni ibi ti a ti lé wọn si, nwọn si wá si ilẹ Juda sọdọ Gedaliah si Mispa, nwọn si kó ọti-waini ati eso igi jọ pupọpupọ.

¹² Even all the Jews returned out of all places whither they were driven, and came to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah, unto Mizpah, and gathered wine and summer fruits very much.

¹³ Ṣugbọn Johanani, ọmọ Karea, ati gbogbo awọn olori ogun ti o wà li oko, tọ̀ Gedaliah wá si Mispa.

¹³ Moreover Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were in the fields, came to Gedaliah to Mizpah,

¹⁴ Nwọn si wi fun u pe, Iwọ ha mọ̀ dajudaju pe: Baalisi, ọba awọn ọmọ Ammoni, ti ran Iṣmaeli, ọmọ Netaniah, lati pa ọ? Ṣugbọn Gedaliah, ọmọ Ahikamu, kò gbà wọn gbọ́.

¹⁴ And said unto him, Dost thou certainly know that Baalis the king of the Ammonites hath sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to slay thee? But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam believed them not.

¹⁵ Nigbana ni Johanani, ọmọ Karea, si sọ nikọkọ fun Gedaliah ni Mispa pe, Jẹ ki emi lọ, mo bẹ ọ, emi o si pa Iṣmaeli, ọmọ Netaniah, ẹnikan kì yio si mọ̀: Ẽṣe ti on o fi pa ọ, ti gbogbo awọn ara Juda ti a kojọ tì ọ, yio tuka, ati iyokù Juda yio ṣegbe?

¹⁵ Then Johanan the son of Kareah spake to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, Let me go, I pray thee, and I will slay Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man shall know it: wherefore should he slay thee, that all the Jews which are gathered unto thee should be scattered, and the remnant in Judah perish?

¹⁶ Ṣugbọn Gedaliah, ọmọ Ahikamu, sọ fun Johanani, ọmọ Karea pe, Iwọ kò gbọdọ ṣe nkan yi, nitori eke ni iwọ ṣe mọ Iṣmaeli.

¹⁶ But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam said unto Johanan the son of Kareah, Thou shalt not do this thing: for thou speakest falsely of Ishmael.
