Jeremiah 40

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

Daytoy ti sao nga immay kenni Jeremias manipud kenni Yahweh kalpasan a pinalubosan isuna ni Nebuzaradan, a kapitan dagiti agbanbantay iti ari a mapan idiay Rama. Dayta ti lugar a nakaiyapanan ni Jeremias, ken ti lugar a nangrimpunganda kenkuana babaen kadigiti kawar. Kaduana dagiti amin a natiliw idiay Jerusalem ken Juda a maipan kas balud idiay Babilonia.

2 And the captain of the body-guard took Jeremiah, and said unto him, Jehovah thy God pronounced this evil upon this place,

Innala ti pangulo dagiti agbanbantay ni Jeremias ket kinunana kenkuana, “Inkeddeng ni Yahweh a Diosmo daytoy a didigra a maibusor iti daytoy a lugar.

3 and Jehovah hath brought [it about] and done according as he said; for ye have sinned against Jehovah, and have not hearkened unto his voice, therefore this thing is come upon you.

Isu nga inyeg ni Yahweh daytoy. Inaramidna no ania iti inkeddengna, agsipud ta nagbasolkayo a tattao kenkuana ken saankayo a nagtulnog iti timekna. Dayta ti makagapu a napasamak daytoy a banag kadakayo a tattao.

4 And now, behold, I loose thee this day from the chains that are upon thy hand. If it seem good in thy sight to come with me to Babylon, come, and I will keep mine eye upon thee; but if it seem ill unto thee to come with me to Babylon, forbear. See, all the land is before thee: whither it seemeth good and right in thy sight to go, thither go.

Ngem ita kitaem! Winayawayaanka itan manipud kadagiti kawar nga adda kadagiti imam. No iti panagkitam ket nasayaat a kumuyogka kaniak a mapan idiay Babilonia, umayka, ket aywananka. Ngem no iti panagkitam ket saan a nasayaat a kumuyogka kaniak idiay Babilonia, saanmo ngarud nga aramiden. Kumitaka iti entero a daga iti sangoanam. Mapanka iti sadinoman a kayatmo a papanan.”

5 And while he had not yet given answer; [he said, ] Yea, go back to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hath appointed over the cities of Judah, and abide with him in the midst of the people; or go wheresoever it seemeth right in thy sight to go. And the captain of the body-guard gave him provisions and a present, and let him go.

Idi saan a simmungbat ni Jeremias, kinuna ni Nebuzaradan, “Mapanka kenni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam a putot ni Safan, a dinutokan ti ari ti Babilonia a mangimaton kadagiti siudad ti Juda. Makipagnaedka kenkuana a kaduam dagiti tattao wenno mapanka iti sadinoman a kayatmo a papanan.” Inikkan isuna ti pangulo dagiti agbanbantay iti ari iti taraon ken sagut, ket pinalubosanna isuna a pumanaw.

6 And Jeremiah came unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah, and abode with him among the people that remained in the land.

Napan ngarud ni Jeremias kenni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam, idiay Mizpa. Nakipagnaed isuna kenkuana a kaduana dagiti tattao a nabati iti daga.

7 And all the captains of the forces that were in the fields, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam over the land, and had committed unto him men, and women, and children, and of the poor of the land, of them that had not been carried away captive to Babylon.

Ita, dagiti dadduma a mangidadaulo kadagiti suldado a Judio nga adda pay laeng idiay away-isuda ken dagiti tattaoda - ket nadamagda a dinutokan ti ari ti Babilonia ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam, nga agbalin a gobernador iti entero a daga. Nadamagda pay a dinutokan ni Nebucadnesar ni Gedalias a mangimaton kadagiti lallaki, babbai, ken ubbing, a kakukurapayan a tattao iti daga, dagidiay saan a naipan a kas balud idiay Babilonia.

8 And 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.

Napanda ngarud kenni Gedalias idiay Mizpa. Dagitoy a lallaki ket ni Ismael a putot ni Netanias; ni Johanan ken ni Jonatan, a putot ni Karea; ni Seraias a putot ni Tanhumet; dagiti lallaki a putot ni Efai a taga-Netofa; ken ni Jezanias a taga-Maaca-ken dagiti soldadoda.

9 And Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan swore 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.

Nagsapata ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam a putot ni Safan kadakuada ken kadagiti tattaoda, ket kinunana kadakuada, “Saankayo nga agbuteng nga agserbi kadagiti opisial a Caldeo. Agnaedkayo iti daga ket agserbikayo iti ari ti Babilonia ket awanto ti pakaan-anoanyo.

10 And as for me, behold, I dwell at Mizpah, to stand before the Chaldeans, who will come unto us; and ye, gather wine, and summer fruits, and oil, and put [them] in your vessels, and dwell in your cities which ye have taken.

Ket kitaenyo, agnanaedak idiay Mizpa tapno makisinnarak kadagiti Caldeo nga immay kadatayo. Isu nga agurnongkayo iti arak, bungbunga a maapit iti tiempo ti kalgaw, ken lana ket idulinyo kadagiti pagkargaanyo. Agnaedkayo kadagiti siudad a sinakupyo.”

11 Likewise all the Jews that were in Moab, and among the children of Ammon and in Edom, and that were in all the lands, heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant in Judah, and that he had appointed over them Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan;

Ket nadamag dagiti amin a Judio idiay Moab, Ammon, ken Edom, ken iti tunggal daga a pinalubosan iti ari ti Babilonia nga agtalinaed dagiti nabatbati a tattao iti Juda, ket dinutokanna ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam a putot ni Safan a mangituray kadakuada.

12 and all the Jews returned out of all the places whither they had been driven, and came to the land of Judah to Gedaliah, unto Mizpah, and gathered wine and summer fruits in great abundance.

Isu a nagsubli dagiti Judio manipud kadagiti lugar a nakaiwarawaraanda. Nagsublida iti daga ti Juda, kenni Gedalias idiay Mizpa. Nangurnongda iti nakaad-adu nga arak ken bungbunga iti tiempo ti kalgaw.

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

Ni Johanan a putot ni Karea ken dagiti amin a mangidadaulo kadagiti armada idiay away ket napan kenni Gedalias idiay Mizpa.

14 and said unto him, Dost thou indeed know that Baalis the king of the children of Ammon hath sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to smite thee to death? But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam believed them not.

Kinunada kenkuana, “Ammom kadi nga imbaon ni Baalis nga ari dagiti tattao ti Ammon ni Ismael a putot ni Nethanias tapno papatayennaka?” Ngem saan a namati ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikim kadakuada.

15 And Johanan the son of Kareah spoke to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, Let me go, I pray thee, and I will smite Ishmael the son of Nethaniah and no man shall know it: why should he take thy life, and all they of Judah who are gathered unto thee be scattered, and the remnant of Judah perish?

Isu a ni Johanan a putot ni Karea, kinatungtongna iti nalimed ni Gedalias idiay Mizpa ket kinunana, “Palubosannak a mapan mangpapatay kenni Ismael a putot ni Netanias. Awanto ti mangpanunot a siak ti nangpapatay kenkuana. Apay koma a papatayennaka? Apay a palubosam a mawarawara ti entero a Juda a naguummong kenka ken mapukaw dagiti nabatbati a tattao ti Juda?”

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.

Ngem kinuna ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam kenni Johanan a putot ni Karea, “Saamo nga aramiden daytoy a banag, ta agul-ulbodka maipapan kenni Ismael.”
