Jeremias 21
1 Kastoy ti sao nga immay kenni Jeremias manipud kenni Yahweh idi imbaon ni ari Zedekias da Pasur a putot ni Malakias ken Sofonias a putot ni Maasias a padi. Kinunada kenkuana,
The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, when King Zedekiah sent to him Pashhur, the son of Malchiah, and Zephaniah, the son of Maaseiah the priest, saying,
2 “Agpabalakadka kenni Yahweh para kadakami, gapu ta gubatennatayo ni Nebucadnesar nga ari ti Babilonia. Nalabit a mangaramid ni Yahweh iti milagro para kadakami, kas iti naglabas a tiempo, ket pagsanudenna ni Nebucadnezar kadakami.”
Will you get directions from the Lord for us; for Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, is making war against us; it may be that the Lord will do something for us like all the wonders he has done, and make him go away from us.
3 Isu a kinuna ni Jeremias kadakuada, “Kastoy ti masapul nga ibagayo kenni Sedekias,
Then Jeremiah said to them, This is what you are to say to Zedekiah:
4 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel: Dumngegkayo, umadanin ti panangisublik kadagiti armas nga adda kadagiti imayo a panggubgubatyo iti ari ti Babilonia ken kadagiti Caldeo a manglaklakub kadakayo iti ruar dagiti pader! Ta ummongekto ida iti tengnga daytoy a siudad.
The Lord God of Israel has said, See, I am turning back the instruments of war in your hands, with which you are fighting against the king of Babylon and the Chaldaeans, who are outside the walls and shutting you in; and I will get them together inside this town.
5 Ket siak a mismo ti makiranget kadakayo babaen iti pannakabalin ken kinapigsak ken babaen iti nakaro unay a pungtotko.
And I myself will be fighting against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even with angry feeling and passion and in great wrath.
6 Ta rautekto dagiti agnanaed iti daytoy a siudad, tao man wenno ayup. Mataydanto babaen iti nakaru a pannakadidigra.
And I will send a great disease on the people living in this town, on man and on beast, causing their death.
7 Kalpasan daytoy-kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh- ni Sedekias nga ari ti Juda, dagiti adipenna, dagiti tattao, ken siasinoman a nabati iti daytoy a siudad kalpasan ti didigra babaen iti kampilan ken panagbisin-Iyawatkonto amin dagitoy iti ima ni Nebucadnesar nga ari ti Babilonia, kadagiti kabusorda, ken kadagiti mangpapatay kadakuada. Ket papatayennanto ida babaen iti kampilan. Saannanto ida a kaasian wenno kailalaan.
And after that, says the Lord, I will give up Zedekiah, king of Judah, and his servants and his people, even those in the town who have not come to their end from the disease and the sword and from need of food, into the hands of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, and into the hands of their haters, and into the hands of those desiring their death: he will put them to the sword; he will not let anyone get away, he will have no pity or mercy.
8 Ket kastoy ti masapul nga ibagam kadagitoy a tattao, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: Adtoy, umadanin nga ikabilko iti sangoananyo ti dalan ti biag ken ti dalan ti patay.
And to this people you are to say, The Lord has said, See, I put before you the way of life and the way of death.
9 Siasinoman nga agtaltalinaed iti daytoy a siudad ket matayto babaen iti kampilan, bisin ken didigra; ngem siasinoman a rumuar ken agparintumeng iti sangoanan dagiti Caldeo a nanglakub kadakayo ket agbiag. Maisalbarnanto ti biagna.
He who keeps in this town will come to his death by the sword and through need of food and through disease; but he who goes out and gives himself up to the Chaldaeans who are shutting you in, will go on living, and will keep his life safe.
10 Ta inkeddengkon ti mangiyeg iti didigra iti daytoy a siudad, a saan ket a mangiyeg iti pagsayaatan-kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh. Naiyawaten daytoy iti ima ti ari ti Babilonia, ket puorannanto daytoy.'
For my face is turned to this town for evil and not for good, says the Lord: it will be given into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he will have it burned with fire.
11 No maipapan iti balay ti ari ti Juda, denggenyo ti sao ni Yahweh.
About the family of the king of Judah. Give ear to the word of the Lord;
12 O balay ni David, kuna ni Yahweh, 'Ipatungpalyo ti hustisia iti agsapa. Ispalenyo ti tao a natakawan babaen iti ima ti manangidadanes, ta no saan gumil-ayabto a kasla apuy ti pungtotko ket pumuor. Ta awan ti makaiddep iti daytoy gapu iti kinadakes dagiti ar-aramidenyo.
O family of David, this is what the Lord has said: Do what is right in the morning, and make free from the hands of the cruel one him whose goods have been violently taken away, or my wrath will go out like fire, burning so that no one may put it out, because of the evil of your doings.
13 Kitaenyo, dakayo nga agnanaed iti tanap! Kabusorkayo, dakkel a bato iti patad-kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh-Kabusorko ti siasinoman a mangibagbaga, “Siasino ngay koma ti sumalog a mangraut kadatayo?” wenno “Siasino ngay koma ti sumrek kadagiti babbalaytayo?”
See, I am against you, you who are living on the rock of the valley, says the Lord; you who say, Who will come down against us? or who will get into our houses?
14 Naikeddengkon a sagrapenyo ti bunga dagiti ar-aramidyo- kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh-mangpasgedakto kadagiti kasamekan, ket puorannanto ti amin nga adda iti aglawlawna.
I will send punishment on you in keeping with the fruit of your doings, says the Lord: and I will put a fire in her woodlands, burning up everything round about her.
