< Jeremiah 18 >

1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i,
2 Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words.
“Dia ofodo hahamosu dunu ea diasuga masa. Amasea, Na da Na sia: ne iasu dima imunu.”
3 Then I went down to the potter's house, and behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.
Amaiba: le, na da amoga asili, ofodo hahamosu dunu ea sisiga: i hahamosu liligi amoga ofodo hamonanebe ba: i.
4 And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to make [it].
E da laga osoboga hamone, ofodo da fonobahadi wadela: i ba: sea, e da amo laga osobo mugululi, eno ofodo hamosu.
5 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Amalalu, Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i,
6 O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clay [is] in the potter's hand, so [are] ye in my hand, O house of Israel.
“Ofodo hahamosu dunu da wadela: i ofodo mugululi, eno hamoi. Na da dilia Isala: ili dunu ilima, amo hou defele hamomu da defea. Laga osobo da ofodo hahamosu dunu ea lobo ganodini hi hanaiba: le hamoma: ne diala. Amo defele, dilia da Na lobo ganodini diala.
7 [At what] instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy [it];
Na da eso enoga fi afae amo mugululi, wadela: lesimusa: sia: sea,
8 If that nation against which I have pronounced, shall turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do to them.
be amo fi da ilia wadela: i hou fisili, Nama sinidigisia, Na da Na ilegei sia: i amo hame hamomu.
9 And [at what] instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant [it];
Be Na da fi eno amo Na da bugima: ne amola bagadewane gaguma: ne sia: sea,
10 If it shall do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, with which I said I would benefit them.
be amo fi da Na sia: mae nabawane, wadela: i hou bagade hamosea, Na da amo fi ilima Na sia: i liligi hame hamomu.
11 Now therefore come, speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I frame evil against you, and devise a device against you: return ye now every one from his evil way, and make your ways and your doings good.
Defea! Wali Yuda fi dunu amola Yelusaleme dunu ilima Na ilima se ima: ne ilegelala. Ilia da wadela: i hou hamonanebe fisima: ne, amola ilia hou afadenema: ne sia: ma.
12 And they said, There is no hope: but we will walk after our own devices, and we will every one do the imagination of his evil heart.
Be ilia da bu amane adole imunu, ‘Hame mabu! Ninia abuliba: le sinidigima: bela: ? Ninia da gasa fili, ninia hanaiga fawane hamomu.’”
13 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Ask ye now among the heathen, who hath heard such things: the virgin of Israel hath done a very horrible thing.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Fifi asi gala huluane ilima adole ba: ma! Agoai hou da musa: ba: sula: ? Isala: ili dunu da baligili wadela: i bagade hamoi dagoi.
14 Will [a man] leave the snow of Lebanon [which cometh] from the rock of the field? [or] shall the cold flowing waters that come from another place be forsaken?
Lebanone gele goumi da eso huluane mu gohona: amoga dedeboi dagole hame gasi ahoa. Ilia anegagi hano ahoabe da hafoga: su hame dawa:
15 Because my people hath forgotten me, they have burned incense to vanity, and they have caused them to stumble in their ways [from] the ancient paths, to walk in paths, [in] a way not cast up;
Be Na fi dunu da Na gogolei dagoi. Ilia da ogogosu loboga hamoi ‘gode’ amoma nodomusa: , gabusiga: manoma ulagisa. Ilia da logodafa amoga sadenane dafabeba: le, logo hisu amoga da dawa: digisu alalo hame gala, amoga ahoa.
16 To make their land desolate, [and] a perpetual hissing; every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and wag his head.
Ilia da Na soge wadela: lesiba: le, eno dunu da amoba: le beda: iwane fofogadigisa. Ilia da Na soge eso huluane higamu. Nowa da baligimusa: ahoasea, da fofogadigibiba: le, ilia dialuma fofoga: mu.
17 I will scatter them as with an east wind before the enemy; I will show them the back, and not the face, in the day of their calamity.
Ilia ha lai da ilima hasalasima: ne, Na da Na fi dunu afagogomu. Ilia da dou gusudili mabe fo amoga gaguli ahoabe agoane ba: mu. Na da ilima Na baligi olelemu. Wadela: mu eso da doaga: sea, Na da ili hame fidimu.”
18 Then said they, Come, and let us devise devices against Jeremiah; for the law shall not perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come, and let us smite him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words.
Amalalu, dunu ilia amane sia: i, “Ninia Yelemaia wadela: musa: ilegela: di. Gobele salasu eno da ninima olelelala. Amola bagade dawa: su dunu ilima ninia da dawa: laha. Amola balofede dunu eno da Gode Ea sia: ninima olelelala. Ninia da Yelemaia ea sia: mae nabawane, ema fofada: mu da defea.”
19 Give heed to me, O LORD, and hearken to the voice of them that contend with me.
Amaiba: le, na da Godema amane sia: ne gadoi, “Hina Gode! Na sia: be nabima! Amola nama ha lai, amo ilia da nama gadele sia: be nabima!
20 Shall evil be recompensed for good? for they have digged a pit for my soul. Remember that I stood before thee to speak good for them, [and] to turn away thy wrath from them.
Hou ida: iwane hamoi da wadela: i dabe lamu da defeala: ? Hame mabu! Be ilia da na ganodini dafama: ne, uli dogoi dagoi. Dawa: ma! Na da ili gaga: ma: ne Dima misini, Di da ougiba: le se baligili ilima mae ima: ne sia: i.
21 Therefore deliver their children to the famine, and pour out their [blood] by the force of the sword; and let their wives be bereaved of their children, and [be] widows; and let their men be put to death; [let] their young men [be] slain by the sword in battle.
Be wali, Hina Gode! Ilia mano ha: ga bogogia: ma: ne amola ilia gegesu ganodini bogoma: ne, logo doasima. Uda da ilia egoa amola mano fisima: ne amola dunu da oloiba: le bogoma: ne amola ayeligi da gegesu ganodini bogoma: ne, logo doasima.
22 Let a cry be heard from their houses, when thou shalt bring a troop suddenly upon them: for they have digged a pit to take me, and hid snares for my feet.
Ilima sisasu mae sia: ne, Dia gasa fi dunu ilia liligi lale, diasu mugulumusa: asunasima. Ilia da beda: iba: le bagade wele sia: ma: ne hamoma. Bai ilia da na dafama: ne, uli dogoi, amola na sa: ima: ne, sani bagohame gei dagoi.
23 Yet, LORD, thou knowest all their counsel against me to slay [me]: forgive not their iniquity, neither blot out their sin from thy sight, but let them be overthrown before thee; deal [thus] with them in the time of thy anger.
Be, Hina Gode! Ilia na medole legemusa: ilegei, amo huluane Di dawa: Ilia wadela: i hou amo Dia mae gogolema: ne olofoma. Dia da ilima ougiba: le, amo dunu hasalima: ne, gisalugala: ma.”
