Jeremiah 36
1 When Jehoiakim had been the king of Judah for almost four years, Yahweh gave this message to me:
In yac se akakosr ma Jehoiakim, wen natul Josiah, el tokosra lun Judah, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
2 “Get a scroll, and write on it the messages that I have given to you regarding Israel, Judah, and the other nations. Write all of the messages, starting from the time that I gave you the first message, when Josiah was the king, up until now.
“Eis sie book limlim ac simusla ma nukewa ma nga tuh fahk nu sum lain Israel ac Judah ac mutunfacl nukewa. Simusla ma nukewa nga tuh fahk nu sum, ke pacl se emeet nga kaskas nu sum in pacl lal Tokosra Josiah nwe misenge.
3 When the people of Judah hear [again] about all the disasters that I plan to cause them to experience, perhaps each one of them will repent. If they do that, I will be able to forgive them for the wrong/evil things that they have done.”
Sahp ke mwet Judah ac lohng ke ma upa nukewa nga akoo in oru nu selos, elos ac forla liki ouiyen moul koluk lalos. Na nga fah nunak munas ke ma koluk ac ma sutuu lalos.”
4 [So] I summoned Baruch, the son of Neraiah. Then, as I dictated to him all the messages that Yahweh had spoken to me, he wrote them on a scroll.
Ouinge nga pangnol Baruch, wen natul Neriah, ac fahkang nu sel ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahkma nu sik. Ac Baruch el simusla ma inge nukewa in sie book limlim.
5 Then I said to him, “I am not allowed to [leave here and] go to the temple.
Na nga fahkang nu sel Baruch ma elan oru: “Tia filfilla nga in som nu in Tempul.
6 So, you go [to the temple] on the [next] day when the people are (fasting/abstaining from food), and read to them the messages from Yahweh that you wrote while I dictated them to you. Read them [aloud] to all the people [who are there, including] the people of Judah who come [there] from their towns.
Ke ma inge kom fah som nu we ke pacl mwet uh ac sifil tukeni in lalo. Kom fah riti book limlim uh elos in lohng ma nukewa LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, ac nga takin nu sum. Riti ma inge ke sie acn ma mwet nukewa ku in lohng kom we, weang mwet Judah su tuku liki siti srisrik selos.
7 Perhaps they will turn from their evil behavior and request Yahweh [to act mercifully toward them]. [They must do that, ] because Yahweh is very angry with them and has threatened to punish them severely.”
Sahp elos fah pre nu sin LEUM GOD, ac forla liki moul koluk lalos, mweyen LEUM GOD El akkalemye tari ma El akoo in sang lainulos ke mulat ac kasrkusrak yohk lal.”
8 Baruch did what I told him to do. He [went to the temple and] read [to the people] all those messages from Yahweh.
Ouinge Baruch el riti kas lun LEUM GOD in Tempul oana ke nga supwal in oru.
9 He did it in December on a day when their leaders had proclaimed that all the people in Jerusalem and the people who had come there from [other] towns in Judah should fast to [please/honor] Yahweh. [It was when] Jehoiakim had been king for almost five years.
In malem se akeu ke yac se aklimekosr ke Jehoiakim, wen natul Josiah, el tokosra lun Judah, mwet Jerusalem nukewa, oayapa mwet nukewa su tuku liki siti srisrik lun Judah, elos tukeni lalo ye mutun LEUM GOD.
10 Baruch read to all the people the messages [that he had written] on the scroll. [He read them while he was] in the temple, in the room where Gemariah stayed. He was the son of Shaphan, [who had previously been the king’s] secretary. That room was close to the upper courtyard [of the temple], near the entrance to the temple that is [called] the New Gate.
Na ke mwet nukewa porongo, Baruch el riti ma nukewa nga tuh fahk nu sel su simla in book limlim sac. El tu in Tempul ke infukil sel Gemariah, wen natul Shaphan mwet sim lun inkul lun tokosra. Infukil se inge oan lucng, apkuran nu ke acn in utyak lun Mutunpot Sasu lun Tempul.
11 When Micaiah, who was the son of Gemariah and grandson of Shaphan, heard those messages from Yahweh,
Micaiah, wen natul Gemariah su ma natul Shaphan, el lohng ke Baruch el riti kas nukewa lun LEUM GOD ma simla in book limlim sac.
12 he went down to the secretary’s room in the palace, where all the king’s officials were meeting. Elishama the [king’s] secretary [was there]. Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, Elnathan the son of Acbor, Gemariah, Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the [other] officials [of the king were also there].
Na el som nu inkul fulat sin tokosra, nu infukil sin mwet sim lun tokosra, yen mwet leum nukewa tukeni we. Elishama, su mwet sim lun tokosra, Delaiah wen natul Shemaiah, Elnathan wen natul Achbor, Gemariah wen natul Shaphan, Zedekiah wen natul Hananiah, ac mwet leum saya nukewa elos oasr we.
13 When Micaiah told them about the messages that Baruch had been reading to the people,
Micaiah el fahkang nu selos ma nukewa ma el lohng Baruch el riti nu sin mwet uh.
14 the officials sent Jehudi, who was the son of Nethaniah and grandson of Shelemiah and great-grandson of Cushi, to tell Baruch to come [and read the messages to them, also]. So Baruch took the scroll and went to them.
Na mwet leum elos supwalla Jehudi (wen natul Nethaniah, su ma natul Shelemiah, su ma natul Cushi) in fahk nu sel Baruch elan use book limlim se ma el tuh riti nu sin mwet ah. Na Baruch el use book limlim sac nu yorolos.
15 They said to him, “Please sit down and read it [to us].” So Baruch did what they requested.
Na elos fahk, “Fahsru muta, ac riti book limlim sacn nu sesr.” Na Baruch el riti nu selos.
16 After they had heard all the messages, they were afraid. They looked at each other and [then] they said, “We must tell these messages to the king!”
Tukun el riti tari, elos ngetani nu sin sie sin sie ke lut ac fosrnga, ac elos fahk nu sel Baruch, “Kut enenu in fahkang ma inge nu sel tokosra.”
17 Then they asked Baruch, “How did you get this scroll? Did Jeremiah dictate to you all the messages on this scroll?”
Na elos siyuk sel Baruch, “Fahk nu sesr lah fuka tuh kom simusla ma inge nukewa? Ya Jeremiah pa fahkot ma kom in simis uh?”
18 Baruch replied, “[Yes], Jeremiah dictated them to me, and I wrote them with ink on this scroll.”
Baruch el topuk, “Jeremiah el fahk kas inge nukewa nu sik, na nga simusla ke ink nu in book limlim se inge.”
19 Then the officials told Baruch, “You and Jeremiah must both hide. Do not tell anyone where you are!”
Na elos fahk nu sel, “Kom ac Jeremiah enenu in som wikla. Taran mwet in tia etu yen komtal wikla we.”
20 They put the scroll in the room of Elishama, the king’s secretary. Then they went to the king, who was in the courtyard, and reported to him everything [that Baruch had read to them].
Mwet leum elos filiya book limlim sac infukil sel Elishama, mwet sim lun tokosra, na elos som nu inkalkal lun tokosra, ac srumunang ma inge nukewa nu sel.
21 Then the king sent Jehudi to get the scroll. Jehudi brought it from Elishama’s room and read it to the king, while all the [king’s] officials were standing there.
Na tokosra el supwalla Jehudi elan use book limlim sac. El som use liki infukil sel Elishama ac riti nu sel tokosra ac mwet leum nukewa su tu raunella.
22 It was in the cold season, and the king was in a part of the palace where he stayed when it was cold. He was sitting in front of a fire [to keep/be warm].
Pacl sac pacl in mihsrisr, ouinge tokosra el muta sisken e se ke nien ta e in lohm se el muta we ke pacl in mihsrisr.
23 Each time Jehudi finished reading three or four columns, the king cut off that section of the scroll with a knife and threw it into the fire. He did that, section by section, until the entire scroll was burned up.
Tukunna Jehudi el ritela tak tolkwe ku akosr kac, na tokosra el sang mitmit srisrik se supukla ac sisang nu in e sac. El sipik, na firri, nwe ke na lisr book limlim sac.
24 Neither the king nor his officials showed that they were afraid [that God would punish them]. They did not tear their clothes [to show that they were sorry for what they had done].
Tokosra ac mwet leum lal nukewa su lohng ma ritiyuk inge tiana luman sangeng ku oela kutu srisrik.
25 Elnathan, Delaiah, and Gemariah pleaded with the king not to burn the scroll, but he did not pay any attention.
Elnathan, Delaiah, ac Gemariah nwe kwafe sel tokosra elan tia isik book limlim sac, a el tiana lohngoltal.
26 Then the king commanded his son Jerahmeel, Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel to arrest Baruch and me. But [they were unable to do that because] Yahweh had hidden us.
Toko el sapkin Fisrak Jerahmeel, welul Seraiah wen natul Azriel, ac Shelemiah wen natul Abdeel, in sruokyuwi ac Baruch mwet sim luk. Tusruktu LEUM GOD El wikinkutla.
27 After the king had burned the scroll on which were written the messages that I had dictated to Baruch, Yahweh said this to me:
Tukun Tokosra Jehoiakim el esukak book limlim se ma nga sap Baruch elan simusla kas nukewa nga fahk nu sel, na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik
28 “Get another scroll, and [tell Baruch to] write everything again, the same messages that he had written on the scroll that the king burned.
ngan eis sie pac book limlim, ac simusla kas nukewa ma oan in book se meet ah.
29 [Then go to] the king and say to him, ‘Yahweh says this: “You burned the scroll [because you did not like] what was written on it, that the king of Babylon would surely [RHQ] come [with his army] and destroy this land and get rid of all the people and the animals.
LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sik in fahk nu sel tokosra, “Kom esukak book limlim sac, ac kom tuh siyuk sel Jeremiah lah efu ku el simusla mu tokosra lun Babylonia ac tuku ac kunausla facl se inge ac onela mwet fac wi pac ma orakrak.
30 Now this is what [I], Yahweh, say about [you], Jehoiakim: 'None of your descendants will rule this kingdom [MTY]. Your corpse will be thrown out [on the ground and not be buried]; it will be under the hot [sun] during the days and [struck by] frost during the nights.
Ke ma inge, Tokosra Jehoiakim, nga, LEUM GOD, fahk nu sum lah wangin sin fwilin tulik nutum ac fah leum fin tokosrai lal David. Mano misa lom ac fah sisila in oan ye fol lun faht ke len, ac ye ohu lun fong uh.
31 I will punish you and your family and your officials for their sins. And I will cause the people of Jerusalem and the people of the [other] towns in Judah to experience all the disasters that I promised, because you all would not pay attention [to what I said]!'” '”
Nga fah kalyei kom ac fwilin tulik nutum ac mwet leum lom, ke sripen orekma koluk nukewa kowos oru. Kowos, oayapa mwet Jerusalem ac mwet Judah, tiana porongo kas in sensenkakin luk nu suwos. Ouinge nga fah use nu fowos nukewa mwe ongoiya ma nga fahk tari mu nga ac oru.”
32 So I took another scroll, and again I dictated the messages to Baruch. He wrote everything that had been written on the [other] scroll, the one that King Jehoiakim had burned in the fire. [But this time, I] added more messages.
Na nga eis sie pac book limlim ac sang nu sel Baruch mwet sim luk, ac el simusla kas nukewa ma nga fahk nu sel. El simusla ma nukewa ma tuh oan in book limlim se ma Tokosra Jehoiakim el tuh esukak, wi pac kutu kas ma nga sang laesla.
