Yeremia 40

1 Ɔsahene Nebusaradan a ɔtua ɔhene awɛmfoɔ ano no gyaee Yeremia wɔ Rama akyi no, asɛm no firi Awurade nkyɛn baa Yeremia hɔ. Ɔhunuu sɛ, wɔagu Yeremia nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn wɔ nnommumfoɔ a wɔfiri Yerusalem ne Yuda a na wɔde wɔn rekɔ Babilonia no mu.

The word that was maad of the Lord to Jeremye, aftir that he was delyuered of Nabusardan, maister of chyualrie, fro Rama, whanne he took hym boundun with chaynes, in the myddis of alle men that passiden fro Jerusalem, and fro Juda, and weren led in to Babyloyne.

2 Brɛ a ɔsahene a ɔtua awɛmfoɔ no ano no hunuu Yeremia no, ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, na ɔhyɛɛ saa amanehunu yi maa beaeɛ yi.

Therfor the prince of chyualrie took Jeremye, and seide to hym, Thi Lord God spak this yuel on this place,

3 Na afei, Awurade ama aba mu. Wayɛ sɛdeɛ ɔkaa sɛ ɔbɛyɛ no. Yeinom nyinaa baa mu, ɛfiri sɛ, mo saa nnipa yi yɛɛ bɔne tiaa Awurade na moanyɛ ɔsetie amma no.

and the Lord hath brouyt, and hath do, as he spak; for ye synneden to the Lord, and herden not the vois of hym, and this word is doon to you.

4 Nanso, ɛnnɛ mereyi wo afiri nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a ɛgu wo nsa no mu. Sɛ wopɛ a, ma yɛnkɔ Babilonia na mɛhwɛ wo so, nanso sɛ wompɛ deɛ a ɛmma. Hwɛ ɔman no nyinaa na ɛda wʼanim no, kɔ baabiara a wopɛ.”

Now therfor lo! Y haue releessid thee to dai fro the chaynes that ben in thin hondis; if it plesith thee to come with me in to Babiloyne, come thou, and Y schal sette myn iyen on thee; sotheli if it displesith thee to come with me in to Babiloyne, sitte thou here; lo! al the lond is in thi siyt, that that thou chesist, and whidur it plesith thee to go, thidur go thou,

5 Na ansa na Yeremia bɛdane ne ho akɔ no, Nebusaradan ka kaa ho sɛ, “Sane kɔ Ahikam babarima Gedalia a, ɔyɛ Safan nana, a Babiloniahene apa no sɛ ɔnhwɛ Yuda nkuro so no nkyɛn na wo ne no nkɔtena wɔ nnipa no mu, anaasɛ kɔ baabi foforɔ biara a wopɛ.” Na ɔsahene no maa Yeremia aduane ne akyɛdeɛ, na ɔmaa no kɔeɛ.

and nyle thou come with me. But dwelle thou with Godolie, sone of Aicham, sone of Saphan, whom the kyng of Babiloyne made souereyn to the citees of Juda; therfor dwelle thou with hym in the myddis of the puple, ether go thou, whidir euer it plesith thee to go. And the maister of chyualrie yaf to hym metis, and yiftis, and lefte hym.

6 Enti, Yeremia kɔɔ Ahikam babarima Gedalia nkyɛn wɔ Mispa, na ɔne no tenaa nnipa a wɔkaa wɔ asase no so no mu.

Forsothe Jeremye cam to Godolie, sone of Aicham, in to Masphat, and dwellide with hym, in the myddis of the puple that was left in the lond.

7 Ɛberɛ a asraafoɔ mpanimfoɔ no nyinaa ne wɔn mmarima a wɔda so wɔ wiram no tee sɛ, Babiloniahene ayɛ Ahikam babarima Gedalia amrado wɔ asase no so, na ɔde mmarima, mmaa ne mmɔfra a wɔyɛ ahiafoɔ wɔ asase no so, na wɔamfa wɔn ankɔ nnommumfa mu wɔ Babilonia ahyɛ ne nsa no,

And whanne alle princes of the oost hadden herd, that weren scatered bi cuntreis, thei and the felowis of hem, that the kyng of Babiloyne hadde maad Godolie souereyn of the lond, the sone of Aicham, and that he hadde bitake to Godolie men, and wymmen, and litle children, and of pore men of the lond, that weren not translatid in to Babiloyne,

8 wɔbaa Gedalia hɔ wɔ Mispa: Netania babarima Ismael, Karea mmammarima Yohanan ne Yonatan, Tanhumet babarima Seraia, Efai a ɔfiri Netofa mmammarima, Yesania a, ɔyɛ Maakani babarima ne wɔn mmarima.

thei camen to Godolie in Masphat; and Ismael, the sone of Nathanye, and Johannan, the sone of Caree, and Jonathan, and Sareas, the sone of Tenoemeth, and the sones of Offi, that weren of Nethophati, and Jeconye, the sone of Machati; bothe thei and her men camen to Godolie.

9 Na Ahikam babarima Gedalia a ɔyɛ Safan nana no kaa ntam de hyɛɛ wɔn ne wɔn mmarima den sɛ, “Monnsuro sɛ mobɛsom Babiloniafoɔ. Montena asase no so na monsom Babiloniahene, na ɛbɛsi mo yie.

And Godolie, sone of Aicham, sone of Saphan, swoor to hem, and to the felowis of hem, and seide, Nyle ye drede to serue Caldeis; but dwelle ye in the lond, and serue ye the kyng of Babiloyne, and it schal be wel to you.

10 Me deɛ, mɛtena Mispa, na masi mo anan mu wɔ Babiloniafoɔ a wɔbɛba abɛhyia yɛn no mu, na mo deɛ, monkɔ boaboa nsã, ahuhuro berɛ mu nnuaba ne ngo ano ngu adekora nkuruwa mu wɔ twaberɛ mu, na montenatena nkuro a moafa no so.”

Lo! Y dwelle in Mesphath, for to answere to the comaundement of Caldeis, that ben sent to vs; forsothe gadere ye vyndage, and ripe corn, and oile, and kepe ye in youre vessels, and dwelle ye in youre citees whiche ye holden.

11 Ɛberɛ a Yudafoɔ a wɔwɔ Moab, Amon, Edom ne aman ahodoɔ a aka no, tee sɛ Babiloniahene agya nkaeɛfoɔ bi wɔ Yuda na wayi Ahikam babarima Gedalia a ɔyɛ Safan nana sɛ amrado wɔ wɔn so no,

But also alle the Jewis, that weren in Moab, and in the oostis of Amon, and in Ydumee, and in alle the cuntreis, whanne it is herd, that the kyng of Babiloyne hadde youe residues, ether remenauntis, in Judee, and that he hadde maad souereyn on hem Godolie, the sone of Aicham, sone of Saphan,

12 wɔn nyinaa sane baa Yuda asase so firi aman a wɔbɔɔ wɔn peteeɛ no so, kɔɔ Gedalia hɔ wɔ Mispa. Na wɔboaboaa nsã ne ahuhuro nnuaba bebree ano wɔ twaberɛ mu.

sotheli alle Jewis turneden ayen fro alle places, to whiche thei hadden fled; and thei camen in to the lond of Juda, to Godolie in Masphat, and gaderiden wyn and ripe corn ful myche.

13 Na Karea babarima Yohanan ne akodɔm ntuanofoɔ a wɔda so wɔ wiram no baa Gedalia nkyɛn wɔ Mispa

Forsothe Johannan, the sone of Caree, and alle the princes of the oost, that weren scaterid in the cuntreis, camen to Godolie in Masphath,

14 na wɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Wonnim sɛ, Amonhene Baalis asoma Netania babarima Ismael sɛ, ɔmmɛkum wo anaa?” Nanso, Ahikam babarima Gedalia annye wɔn anni.

and seiden to hym, Wite thou, that Bahalis, kyng of the sones of Amon, hath sent Ismael, the sone of Nathanye, to smyte thi lijf. And Godolie, the sone of Aicham, bileuyde not to hem.

15 Na Karea babarima Yohanan ka kyerɛɛ Gedalia wɔ kɔkoam wɔ Mispa sɛ, “Ma menkɔkum Netania babarima Ismael, na obiara rente. Adɛn enti na ɛsɛ sɛ ɔkum wo na ɔma Yudafoɔ a wɔatwa wo ho ahyia no bɔ hwete, na Yudafoɔ nkaeɛfoɔ no yera?”

Forsothe Johannan, the sone of Caree, seide to Godolie asidis half in Masphath, and spak, Y schal go, and sle Ismael, the sone of Nathanye, while no man knowith, lest he sle thi lijf, and alle the Jewis ben scatered, that ben gaderid to thee, and the remenauntis of Juda schulen perische.

16 Nanso, Ahikam babarima Gedalia ka kyerɛɛ Karea babarima Yohanan sɛ, “Ɛnyɛ saa adeɛ yi! Deɛ woka fa Ismael ho no nyɛ nokorɛ.”

And Godolie, the sone of Aicham, seide to Johannan, the sone of Caree, Nyle thou do this word, for thou spekist fals of Ismael.
