37 Nohamba Sedekia, omonamati waJosia, oya hovela okupangela ponhele yaKonia,* omonamati waJehoiakim, osheshi ohamba yaBabilon, Nebukadnesar,* oye mu ninga ohamba moshilongo shaJuda.
2 Ashike yo novapiya vayo nosho yo ovanhu vomoshilongo inava pwilikina keendjovo daJehova, odo da popiwa okupitila momuprofeti Jeremia.
3 Nohamba Sedekia oya tuma Jukal, omonamati waSelemia, naSefania, omonamati womupristeri Maasea, komuprofeti Jeremia tai ti: “Alikana, ilikana ponhele yetu kuJehova, Kalunga ketu.”
4 Jeremia okwa li ha endaenda a manguluka mokati kovanhu, osheshi kava li natango ve mu tula modolongo.
5 Etangakwaita laFarao ola dja mo muEgipiti, nOvakaldea, ovo va li va kondeka Jerusalem, ova uda ehokololo li na sha navo. Onghee ova efa po okulwifa Jerusalem.
6 Opo nee ondjovo yaJehova oye uya komuprofeti Jeremia tai ti:
7 “Eshi osho Jehova, Kalunga kaIsrael, ta ti, ‘Eshi osho mu na okulombwela ohamba yaJuda oyo ye mu tuma kwaame, mu pule nge tamu ti: “Tala! Etangakwaita laFarao, olo tali uya oku ku kwafela, oli na okushuna koshilongo shalo, Egipiti.
8 NOvakaldea otava ka aluka nokulwifa oshilando eshi, ndele tave shi kwata ko noku shi xwika po nomundilo.”
9 Eshi osho Jehova ta ti, “Inamu lifufya nye vene* tamu ti, ‘Ovakaldea otava ka dja po filufilu pufye,’ molwaashi itava ka dja po.
10 Nokuli nonande omu dipae etangakwaita alishe lOvakaldea, olo tali mu lwifa, ndele tapa fyaala ashike ovalumenhu, ovo va ehamekwa, natango otava ka dja momatwali avo, ndele tava xwike po oshilando eshi nomundilo.”’”
11 Eshi etangakwaita lOvakaldea la efa po okulwifa Jerusalem omolwetangakwaita laFarao,
12 Jeremia okwa dja mo muJerusalem, a ya kedu laBenjamin, a ka pewe oshitukulwa shaye oko mokati koshiwana shavo.
13 Ndele eshi a fika pomuvelo waBenjamin, omupashukili wovanangeli wedina Iria, omonamati waSelemia, omonamati waHanania, okwa kwata omuprofeti Jeremia, ndele ta ti: “Ove oto ke liyandja kOvakaldea!”
14 Ashike Jeremia okwa ti: “Kashi fi shoshili! Ame itandi ke liyandja kOvakaldea.” Ndele ina pwilikina kuye. Onghee Iria okwa kwata po Jeremia, ndele te mu twala mo komalenga.
15 Omalenga okwa li a handukila neenghono Jeremia, nokwe mu denga, ndele ta e mu tula modolongo,* meumbo lahamushanga, Jehonatan, olo la ningwa odolongo.
16 Jeremia okwa li a tulwa meemhango,* meenduda dokoshi yedu, nokwa kala mo omafiku mahapu.
17 Opo nee ohamba Sedekia oye mu tuma ko, noye mu pulapula meholeko meumbo* layo. Oya pula ya ti, “Kape na ondjovo ya dja kuJehova?” Jeremia okwa ti, “Ope na!” nokwa twikila ko, “Oto ka yandjwa meke lohamba yaBabilon!”
18 Jeremia okwa pula yo ohamba Sedekia ta ti: “Onda nyona shike kwoove nokovapiya voye nosho yo kovanhu ava, opo mu tule nge modolongo?
19 Paife ovaprofeti voye, ovo ve ku xunganekela kutya ‘Ohamba yaBabilon itai uya i ku lwife nosho yo oshilongo eshi ove li peni’?
20 Alikana, paife pwilikina, akutu omwene wange, ohamba. Alikana, uda eindilo lange li na sha nokufilwa onghenda. Ino shunifa nge keumbo lahamushanga Jehonatan, ngeenge hasho ohandi ka fila ko.”
21 Onghee ohamba Sedekia oya yandja elombwelo kutya Jeremia na tulwe modolongo mOmukala wOvanangeli, nokwa li ha pewa omungome wongonga efiku keshe wa dja mepandavanda lovateleki, fiyo osheshi omingome adishe da pwa mo moshilando. Na Jeremia okwa kala mOmukala wOvanangeli.
