Yeremia
4 “Bo Israel, kɛ́ oku osɛɛ lɛ,” Yehowa kɛɛ,
“Kɛ́ oku osɛɛ kɛba miŋɔɔ
Ni kɛ́ ojie omagai ni yɔɔ nyaŋemɔ lɛ kɛje mihiɛ lɛ,
No lɛ, obɔŋ ko dɔŋŋ.+
2 Ni kɛ́ okã kitã akɛ,
‘Gbii abɔ ni Yehowa hiɛ kã nɛɛ!’ yɛ anɔkwale kɛ jalɛsaneyeli kɛ jalɛ nifeemɔ mli lɛ,
No lɛ, jeŋmaji lɛ baatsɔ enɔ amɛná jɔɔmɔ amɛhã amɛ diɛŋtsɛ amɛhe,
Ni amɛbaashwã yɛ ehewɔ.”+
3 Ejaakɛ nɔ ni Yehowa kɛɔ Yuda hii lɛ kɛ Yerusalem nɛ:
“Nyɛhua shikpɔŋ kpakpa nɔ nyɛhãa nyɛhe,
Ni nyɛkpaa nii ni nyɛduɔ yɛ ŋmei ateŋ lɛ.+
4 Nyɛ Yuda hii kɛ nyɛ mɛi ni nyɛyɔɔ Yerusalem,
Nyɛfolɔa nyɛhe ketia nyɛhãa Yehowa,+
Ni nyɛjiea nyɛtsui ketia naa loo lɛ,
Koni mimlifu lɛ akatso tamɔ la
Ni eshã ni mɔ ko nyɛɛɛ agbe,
Yɛ nyɛnifeemɔi fɔji lɛ ahewɔ.”+
5 Nyɛjajea yɛ Yuda, ni nyɛshiɛa yɛ Yerusalem.
Nyɛbolɔa ni nyɛkpãa tɛtɛrɛmantɛrɛ* yɛ shikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ fɛɛ.+
Nyɛboa waa nyɛkɛa akɛ: “Nyɛbuaa nyɛhe naa
Ni nyɛhãa wɔjoa foi kɛyaa maji ni atswa gbogboi awo amɛhe lɛ amli.+
6 Nyɛwóa okadi* ko nɔ nyɛtsɔa Zion gbɛ.
Nyɛtaoa abobaahe, ni nyɛkawaa nyɛdamɔa shi,”
Ejaakɛ mikɛ sane fɔŋ, hiɛkpatamɔ kpele miiba kɛmiijɛ kooyigbɛ.+
Ejɛ he ni eyɔɔ lɛ kɛmiiba koni ehã oshikpɔŋ lɛ atsɔ nɔ ko ni baahã mɛi ahe ajɔ̃ amɛhe.
Abaakpãtã omaji lɛ ahiɛ kwraa, ni mɔ ko mɔ ko ehiŋ mli.+
8 No hewɔ lɛ, nyɛbua kpekpe,*+
Nyɛyea awerɛho* ni nyɛfóa waa,
Ejaakɛ Yehowa mlifu ni naa wa lɛ ejeko wɔnɔ.
9 “Nakai gbi lɛ nɔ lɛ,” Yehowa kɛɛ, “maŋtsɛ lɛ tsui baafã,+
Lumɛi lɛ hu atsui baafã;
Osɔfoi lɛ ahe baajɔ̃ amɛhe, ni gbalɔi lɛ anaa baakpɛ amɛhe.”+
10 Ni mikɛɛ akɛ: “Ao Nuŋtsɔ Ofe Yehowa! Lɛɛlɛŋ, olaka maŋ nɛɛ+ kɛ Yerusalem kwraa okɛɛ akɛ, ‘Nyɛbaaná toiŋjɔlɛ,’+ be mli ni klante lɛ ma wɔkuɛ he.”*
11 Nakai be lɛ mli lɛ, abaakɛɛ maŋ nɛɛ kɛ Yerusalem akɛ:
“Kɔɔyɔɔ ni mli edɔ baajɛ shikpɔŋ kpataa lɛ nɔ gɔŋkpɔi kpatai lɛ anɔ aba

Ebaaa ni ebasha ŋmaa* mli loo ejie emli muji lɛ.
12 Mi mihãa kɔɔyɔɔ ni naa wa lɛ jɛɔ nɛkɛ hei nɛɛ kɛbaa.

14 Bo Yerusalem, fɔflɔmɔ efɔŋfeemɔ kɛje otsui mli koni ahere bo.+
Mɛɛ be okɛ ojwɛŋmɔi fɔji lɛ baato omli kɛyashi?
15 Ejaakɛ gbee ko tswaa adafi kɛjɛɔ Dan,+

16 Hɛɛ, nyɛshiɛa enɛ nyɛhãa jeŋmaji lɛ;
Nyɛtswaa adafi nyɛshia Yerusalem.”
“Mɛi ejɛ shikpɔŋ ko ni yɔɔ shɔŋŋ nɔ kɛmiiba amɛbakpa maŋ lɛ shi,*
Ni amɛbaahole amɛgbei anɔ amɛshi Yuda maji lɛ.
18 “Akɛ bo diɛŋtsɛ ogbɛi lɛ kɛ onifeemɔi lɛ baaba onɔ.+
Sane fɔŋ ni baaba onɔ lɛ naa baawa waa,*
Ejaakɛ ebaashɛ otsui mli tɔ̃ɔ!”
Miipiŋ yɛ mitsui mli diɛŋtsɛ.*
Mitsui miitswa yɛ mimli.
20 Abɔ sane fɔŋ ni nyiɛ sane fɔŋ sɛɛ he amaniɛ,
Ejaakɛ akpãtã shikpɔŋ muu lɛ fɛɛ hiɛ.
Akpãtã mi diɛŋtsɛ mimama tsũi lɛ ahiɛ trukaa,

22 “Ejaakɛ mimaŋbii lɛ, buului ji amɛ;+
Ejaakɛ amɛkɛ amɛjwɛŋmɔ emaaa minɔ.
Bii kwashiai ni nuuu nii ashishi ji amɛ.
Nilelɔi* ji amɛ yɛ efɔŋfeemɔ gbɛfaŋ,

23 Mikwɛ shikpɔŋ lɛ, ni naa! nɔ ko nɔ ko bɛ nɔ, ni etsɔ amaŋfɔ.+
Mikwɛ ŋwɛii hu, ni amɛkpɛɛɛ la dɔŋŋ.+
24 Mikwɛ gɔji lɛ, ni naa! amɛmiihoso,

26 Mikwɛ, ni naa! aduawa ŋmɔ lɛ etsɔ ŋa,
Ni akumɔ emaji lɛ fɛɛ ashwie shi.+
Yehowa hewɔ ni eba lɛ nakai,
Emlifu ni naa wa lɛ hewɔ eba lɛ nakai.
27 Ejaakɛ nɔ ni Yehowa kɛɛ nɛ: “Shikpɔŋ muu lɛ fɛɛ baatsɔ amaŋfɔ,+
Shi mikpãtãŋ nibii ahiɛ kɛgbeŋ naa.
29 Maŋ muu lɛ fɛɛ baajo foi+
Yɛ okpɔŋɔnɔtaralɔi lɛ kɛ gãitsɛ̃lɔi lɛ ahoofeemɔ lɛ naa.

30 Amrɔ nɛɛ ni akpãtã ohiɛ nɛɛ, mɛni obaafee?
No mli lɛ, owoɔ atade tsuru,
Okɛ shika tsuru hewulamɔnii wulaa ohe,

Egbɛɔ eniji amli ni ekɛɔ akɛ:+
“Kpoo hã mi, ejaakɛ gbɔmɔgbelɔi lɛ ehã etɔ mi!”*
