1 O o Boqor Sidqiyaah oo ahaa ina Yoosiyaah ayaa boqor ka noqday meeshii Konyaah ina Yehooyaaqiim, kaasoo ahaa kii Nebukadresar oo ahaa boqorkii Baabuloon uu isaga boqor uga dhigay dalkii Yahuudah.

Now King Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah.

2 L aakiinse isagii, iyo addoommadiisii, iyo dadkii dalka toona midkoodna ma maqlin erayadii Rabbiga ee uu isagu kaga hadlay Nebi Yeremyaah.

But neither he nor his servants nor the people of the land gave heed to the words of the Lord which He spoke by the prophet Jeremiah.

3 O o Boqor Sidqiyaah wuxuu Nebi Yeremyaah u soo diray Yehuukal ina Shelemyaah, iyo Sefanyaah ina wadaadka Macaseeyaah, oo wuxuu ku soo yidhi, Bal Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ah noo bari.

And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, “Pray now to the Lord our God for us.”

4 O o markaas Nebi Yeremyaah dadka dhexdiisa ayuu gudaha u soo geli jiray oo dibadda uga bixi jiray, waayo, weli ma ay xabbisin.

Now Jeremiah was coming and going among the people, for they had not yet put him in prison.

5 O o ciidankii Fircoon ayaa Masar ka soo baxay, oo reer Kaldayiinkii Yeruusaalem ku hareeraysnaana markay warkoodii maqleen ayay Yeruusaalem ka kala tageen.

Then Pharaoh’s army came up from Egypt; and when the Chaldeans who were besieging Jerusalem heard news of them, they departed from Jerusalem.

6 M arkaasaa eraygii Rabbigu Nebi Yeremyaah u yimid, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,

Then the word of the Lord came to the prophet Jeremiah, saying,

7 R abbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu leeyahay, Boqorka dalka Yahuudah oo ii soo kiin diray inuu wax i weyddiisto waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Bal eeg, ciidanka Fircoon oo u soo baxay inuu ku caawiyo, waxay ku noqon doonaan dalkoodii Masar.

“Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘Thus you shall say to the king of Judah, who sent you to Me to inquire of Me: “Behold, Pharaoh’s army which has come up to help you will return to Egypt, to their own land.

8 O o reer Kaldayiinna way soo noqon doonaan, oo magaaladan bay la diriri doonaan, wayna qabsan doonaan, oo dab bay ku gubi doonaan.

And the Chaldeans shall come back and fight against this city, and take it and burn it with fire.”’

9 R abbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Idinku ha iskhiyaanaynina, oo ha isku odhanina, Hubaal reer Kaldayiin way naga tegayaan, maxaa yeelay, iyagu ma ay tegi doonaan.

Thus says the Lord: ‘Do not deceive yourselves, saying, “The Chaldeans will surely depart from us,” for they will not depart.

10 W aayo, in kastoo aad ciidanka reer Kaldayiin ee idinla diriraya wada baabbi'in lahaydeen, oo rag dhaawac ah mooyaane aan iyaga wax kale ka hadhin, haddana iyaga midkood kastaaba wuxuu ka soo kici lahaa teendhadiisa, oo dab bay magaaladan ku gubi lahaayeen.

For though you had defeated the whole army of the Chaldeans who fight against you, and there remained only wounded men among them, they would rise up, every man in his tent, and burn the city with fire.’” Jeremiah Imprisoned

11 O o markii ciidankii reer Kaldayiin ay Yeruusaalem uga kala tageen cabsi ay ka qabaan ciidankii Fircoon aawadiis

And it happened, when the army of the Chaldeans left the siege of Jerusalem for fear of Pharaoh’s army,

12 a yaa Yeremyaah Yeruusaalem ka baxay oo wuxuu galay dalkii reer Benyaamiin si uu meeshaas qaybtiisa dadka uga dhex helo.

that Jeremiah went out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin to claim his property there among the people.

13 O o markuu iriddii reer Benyaamiin joogay waxaa isna halkaas joogay sirkaal waardiyayaasha madax u ahaa, oo magiciisa la odhan jiray Yiriyaah ina Shelemyaah, oo ahaa ina Xananyaah, oo isna Yeremyaah buu qabtay oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Adigu waxaad u gelaysaa reer Kaldayiin.

And when he was in the Gate of Benjamin, a captain of the guard was there whose name was Irijah the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah; and he seized Jeremiah the prophet, saying, “You are defecting to the Chaldeans!”

14 M arkaas Yeremyaah wuxuu ku yidhi, Taasu waa been, anigu reer Kaldayiin u geli maayo. Laakiinse isagu innaba ma uu dhegaysan, sidaas daraaddeed Yiriyaah wuxuu soo qabtay Yeremyaah, oo amiirradii u keenay.

Then Jeremiah said, “False! I am not defecting to the Chaldeans.” But he did not listen to him. So Irijah seized Jeremiah and brought him to the princes.

15 A miirradiina Yeremyaah bay u cadhoodeen, oo intay garaaceen ayay gurigii Yoonaataan oo karraanigii ahaa ku xabbiseen, waayo, kaasay xabsi ka dhigeen.

Therefore the princes were angry with Jeremiah, and they struck him and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe. For they had made that the prison.

16 M arkii Yeremyaah uu gurigii godka ahaa galay iyo weliba qolalkii hoose, oo uu halkaas maalmo badan ku jiray,

When Jeremiah entered the dungeon and the cells, and Jeremiah had remained there many days,

17 a yaa waxaa isagii u soo cid diray Boqor Sidqiyaah, oo soo bixiyey. Markaasaa boqorkii si qarsoodi ah gurigiisa gudihiisa wax ugu weyddiiyey, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Eray Rabbiga ka yimid miyuu jiraa? Kolkaasaa Yeremyaah ku yidhi, Waa jiraa. Oo wuxuu kaloo yidhi, Adigu waxaa laguu gelin doonaa gacanta boqorka Baabuloon.

then Zedekiah the king sent and took him out. The king asked him secretly in his house, and said, “Is there any word from the Lord ?” And Jeremiah said, “There is.” Then he said, “You shall be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon!”

18 O o weliba Yeremyaah wuxuu Boqor Sidqiyaah ku yidhi, Bal maxaan adiga, amase addoommadaada, amase dadkan u dhimay, oo aad ii xabbisteen?

Moreover Jeremiah said to King Zedekiah, “What offense have I committed against you, against your servants, or against this people, that you have put me in prison?

19 H addaba bal meeye nebiyadaadii wax idiin sii sheegay, oo idinku yidhi, Boqorka Baabuloon ku soo duuli maayo idinka iyo dalkanba?

Where now are your prophets who prophesied to you, saying, ‘The king of Babylon will not come against you or against this land’?

20 H addaba boqorow, sayidkaygiiyow, bal baryadayda maqal, oo waan ku baryayaaye baryootankayga xaggaaga ha laga aqbalo, oo gurigii karraaniga Yoonaataan ha igu celin, waaba intaasoo aan halkaas ku dhintaaye.

Therefore please hear now, O my lord the king. Please, let my petition be accepted before you, and do not make me return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there.”

21 M arkaas Boqor Sidqiyaah wuxuu ku amray in Yeremyaah barxaddii waardiyayaasha lagu daayo, oo waxaa dharaar kasta jidka kibisdubayaasha laga siin jiray xabbad kibis ah, ilamaa kibistii magaaladu ay wada dhammaatay. Oo sidaasuu Yeremyaah barxaddii waardiyayaasha ugu sii hadhay.

Then Zedekiah the king commanded that they should commit Jeremiah to the court of the prison, and that they should give him daily a piece of bread from the bakers’ street, until all the bread in the city was gone. Thus Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison.
