37:1
וַיִּ֨מְלׇךְ־מֶ֔לֶךְ צִדְקִיָּ֖הוּ בֶּן־יֹאשִׁיָּ֑הוּ תַּ֗חַת כָּנְיָ֙הוּ֙ בֶּן־יְה֣וֹיָקִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר הִמְלִ֛יךְ נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּ֥ר מֶלֶךְ־בָּבֶ֖ל בְּאֶ֥רֶץ יְהוּדָֽה׃
ὁ λόγος ὁ γενόμενος πρὸς Ιερεμιαν παρὰ κυρίου εἰπεῖν
Et regnavit rex Sedecias filius Josiae pro Jechonia filio Joakim, quem constituit regem Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis in terra Juda :
ወነግሠ፡ ሴዴቅያስ፡ ወልደ፡ ኢዮስያስ፡ ህየንተ፡ ኢኮንያን፡ ወልደ፡ ኢዮአቄም፡ ዘአንገሦ፡ ናቡከደነፆር፡ ንጉሠ፡ ባቢሎን፡ በምድረ፡ ይሁዳ።
Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned as king instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah.
37:2
וְלֹ֥א שָׁמַ֛ע ה֥וּא וַעֲבָדָ֖יו וְעַ֣ם הָאָ֑רֶץ אֶל־דִּבְרֵ֣י יְהֹוָ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֣ר דִּבֶּ֔ר בְּיַ֖ד יִרְמְיָ֥הוּ הַנָּבִֽיא׃
οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ λέγων γράψον πάντας τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἐχρημάτισα πρὸς σέ ἐπὶ βιβλίου
et non obedivit ipse, et servi ejus, et populus terrae, verbis Domini, quae locutus est in manu Jeremiae prophetae.
ወለሊሁ፡ ኢሰምዖ፡ ወደቁሂ፡ ወሕዝበ፡ ምድር፡ ዘነገረ፡ እግዚአብሔር፡ በእደ፡ ኤርምያስ፡ ነቢይ።
But neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land, listened to Yahweh’s words, which he spoke by the prophet Jeremiah.
37:3
וַיִּשְׁלַח֩ הַמֶּ֨לֶךְ צִדְקִיָּ֜הוּ אֶת־יְהוּכַ֣ל בֶּן־שֶׁלֶמְיָ֗ה וְאֶת־צְפַנְיָ֤הוּ בֶן־מַעֲשֵׂיָה֙ הַכֹּהֵ֔ן אֶל־יִרְמְיָ֥הוּ הַנָּבִ֖יא לֵאמֹ֑ר הִתְפַּלֶּל־נָ֣א בַעֲדֵ֔נוּ אֶל־יְהֹוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃
ὅτι ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται φησὶν κύριος καὶ ἀποστρέψω τὴν ἀποικίαν λαοῦ μου Ισραηλ καὶ Ιουδα εἶπεν κύριος καὶ ἀποστρέψω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν ἔδωκα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν καὶ κυριεύσουσιν αὐτῆς
Et misit rex Sedecias Juchal filium Selemiae, et Sophoniam filium Maasiae, sacerdotem, ad Jeremiam prophetam, dicens : Ora pro nobis Dominum Deum nostrum.
ወፈነዎ፡ ንጉሥ፡ ሴዴቅያስ፡ ለኢዮአካዝ፡ ወልደ፡ ሴሌምዩ፡ ወሰፎንያስ፡ ወልደ፡ ማሴው፡ ካህን፡ ኀበ፡ ኤርምያስ፡ እንዘ፡ ይብል፡ ጸሊ፡ በእንቲአነ፡ ኀበ፡ እግዚአብሔር፡ አምላክነ።
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 Yahweh our God for us.”
37:4
וְיִרְמְיָ֕הוּ בָּ֥א וְיֹצֵ֖א בְּת֣וֹךְ הָעָ֑ם וְלֹא־נָתְנ֥וּ אֹת֖וֹ בֵּ֥ית (הכליא) [הַכְּלֽוּא]׃
καὶ οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι οὓς ἐλάλησεν κύριος ἐπὶ Ισραηλ καὶ Ιουδα
Jeremias autem libere ambulabat in medio populi : non enim miserant eum in custodiam carceris. Igitur exercitus Pharaonis egressus est de Aegypto, et audientes Chaldaei qui obsidebant Jerusalem, hujuscemodi nuntium, recesserunt ab Jerusalem.
ወኤርምያስ፡ ይበውአ፡ ወይወፅእ፡ ማእከለ፡ ሕዝብ፡ ወኢያብእዎ፡ ውስተ፡ ቤተ፡ ሞቅሕ።
Now Jeremiah came in and went out among the people, for they had not put him into prison.
37:5
וְחֵ֥יל פַּרְעֹ֖ה יָצָ֣א מִמִּצְרָ֑יִם וַיִּשְׁמְע֨וּ הַכַּשְׂדִּ֜ים הַצָּרִ֤ים עַל־יְרוּשָׁלַ֙͏ִם֙ אֶת־שִׁמְעָ֔ם וַיֵּ֣עָל֔וּ מֵעַ֖ל יְרוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם׃ {פ}
οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος φωνὴν φόβου ἀκούσεσθε φόβος καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν εἰρήνη
Et factum est verbum Domini ad Jeremiam prophetam, dicens :
ወኮነ፡ ቃለ፡ እግዚአብሔር፡ ኀበ፡ ኤርምያስ፡ እንዘ፡ ይብል፡ ከመዝ፡ ይቤ፡ እግዚአብሔር፡ አምላከ፡ እስራኤል።
Pharaoh’s army had come out of Egypt; and when the Chaldeans who were besieging Jerusalem heard news of them, they withdrew from Jerusalem.
37:6
וַֽיְהִי֙ דְּבַר־יְהֹוָ֔ה אֶל־יִרְמְיָ֥הוּ הַנָּבִ֖יא לֵאמֹֽר׃
ἐρωτήσατε καὶ ἴδετε εἰ ἔτεκεν ἄρσεν καὶ περὶ φόβου ἐν ᾧ καθέξουσιν ὀσφὺν καὶ σωτηρίαν διότι ἑώρακα πάντα ἄνθρωπον καὶ αἱ χεῖρες αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τῆς ὀσφύος αὐτοῦ ἐστράφησαν πρόσωπα εἰς ἴκτερον
Haec dicit Dominus Deus Israël : Sic dicetis regi Juda, qui misit vos ad me interrogandum : Ecce exercitus Pharaonis, qui egressus est vobis in auxilium, revertetur in terram suam in Aegyptum :

Then Yahweh’s word came to the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
37:7
כֹּה־אָמַ֤ר יְהֹוָה֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל כֹּ֤ה תֹֽאמְרוּ֙ אֶל־מֶ֣לֶךְ יְהוּדָ֔ה הַשֹּׁלֵ֧חַ אֶתְכֶ֛ם אֵלַ֖י לְדׇרְשֵׁ֑נִי הִנֵּ֣ה׀ חֵ֣יל פַּרְעֹ֗ה הַיֹּצֵ֤א לָכֶם֙ לְעֶזְרָ֔ה שָׁ֥ב לְאַרְצ֖וֹ מִצְרָֽיִם׃
ἐγενήθη ὅτι μεγάλη ἡ ἡμέρα ἐκείνη καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν τοιαύτη καὶ χρόνος στενός ἐστιν τῷ Ιακωβ καὶ ἀπὸ τούτου σωθήσεται
et redient Chaldaei, et bellabunt contra civitatem hanc, et capient eam, et succendent eam igni.
ወይትመየጡ፡ ከለዳውያን፡ ወይትቃተልዋ፡ ለዛሀገር፡ ወይነሥእዋ፡ ወያውዕይዋ፡ በእሳት።
“Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘You shall tell the king of Judah, who sent you to me to inquire of me: “Behold, Pharaoh’s army, which has come out to help you, will return to Egypt into their own land.
37:8
וְשָׁ֙בוּ֙ הַכַּשְׂדִּ֔ים וְנִלְחֲמ֖וּ עַל־הָעִ֣יר הַזֹּ֑את וּלְכָדֻ֖הָ וּשְׂרָפֻ֥הָ בָאֵֽשׁ׃ {פ}

Haec dicit Dominus : Nolite decipere animas vestras, dicentes : Euntes abibunt, et recedent a nobis Chaldaei : quia non abibunt.

37:9
כֹּ֣ה׀ אָמַ֣ר יְהֹוָ֗ה אַל־תַּשִּׁ֤אוּ נַפְשֹֽׁתֵיכֶם֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר הָלֹ֛ךְ יֵלְכ֥וּ מֵעָלֵ֖ינוּ הַכַּשְׂדִּ֑ים כִּי־לֹ֖א יֵלֵֽכוּ׃

Sed etsi percusseritis omnem exercitum Chaldaeorum qui praeliantur adversum vos, et derelicti fuerint ex eis aliqui vulnerati, singuli de tentorio suo consurgent, et incendent civitatem hanc igni.

“Yahweh says, ‘Don’t deceive yourselves, saying, “The Chaldeans will surely depart from us;” for they will not depart.
37:10

37:11

egressus est Jeremias de Jerusalem ut iret in terram Benjamin, et divideret ibi possessionem in conspectu civium.
ወፅአ፡ ኤርምያስ፡ እምኢየሩሳሌም፡ ለሐዊር፡ ምድረ፡ ብንያም፡ ይንበር፡ ህየ፡ ማእከለ፡ ሕዝብ።
When the army of the Chaldeans had withdrawn from Jerusalem for fear of Pharaoh’s army,
37:12
וַיֵּצֵ֤א יִרְמְיָ֙הוּ֙ מִיר֣וּשָׁלַ֔͏ִם לָלֶ֖כֶת אֶ֣רֶץ בִּנְיָמִ֑ן לַחֲלִ֥ק מִשָּׁ֖ם בְּת֥וֹךְ הָעָֽם׃
οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἀνέστησα σύντριμμα ἀλγηρὰ ἡ πληγή σου
Cumque pervenisset ad portam Benjamin, erat ibi custos portae per vices, nomine Jerias filius Selemiae filii Hananiae : et apprehendit Jeremiam prophetam, dicens : Ad Chaldaeos profugis.
ወኮነ፡ ውእቱ፡ በአንቀጽ፡ ዘብንያም፡ ወሀሎ፡ በህየ፡ ብእሲ፡ ዘየዐቅብ፡ አንቀጸ፡ ወስሙ፡ ስርዋስ፡ ወልደ፡ ሴሌምዩ፡ ወልደ፡ ሐናንያ፡ ወአኀዞ፡ ለኤርምያስ፡ ነቢይ፡ ወይቤሎ፡ ኀበ፡ ከለዳውያን፡ አንተ፡ ታመሥጥ።
then Jeremiah went out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, to receive his portion there, in the middle of the people.
37:13
וַֽיְהִי־ה֞וּא בְּשַׁ֣עַר בִּנְיָמִ֗ן וְשָׁם֙ בַּ֣עַל פְּקִדֻ֔ת וּשְׁמוֹ֙ יִרְאִיָּ֔יה בֶּן־שֶׁלֶמְיָ֖ה בֶּן־חֲנַנְיָ֑ה וַיִּתְפֹּ֞שׂ אֶֽת־יִרְמְיָ֤הוּ הַנָּבִיא֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר אֶל־הַכַּשְׂדִּ֖ים אַתָּ֥ה נֹפֵֽל׃
οὐκ ἔστιν κρίνων κρίσιν σου εἰς ἀλγηρὸν ἰατρεύθης ὠφέλεια οὐκ ἔστιν σοι
Et respondit Jeremias : Falsum est : non fugio ad Chaldaeos. Et non audivit eum, sed comprehendit Jerias Jeremiam, et adduxit eum ad principes :
ወይቤሎ፡ ኤርምያስ፡ ሐሰ፡ ኢያመሥጥ፡ ውስተ፡ ከለዳውያን፡ አነ።
When he was in Benjamin’s gate, 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!”
37:14
וַיֹּ֨אמֶר יִרְמְיָ֜הוּ שֶׁ֗קֶר אֵינֶ֤נִּי נֹפֵל֙ עַל־הַכַּשְׂדִּ֔ים וְלֹ֥א שָׁמַ֖ע אֵלָ֑יו וַיִּתְפֹּ֤שׂ יִרְאִיָּיה֙ בְּיִרְמְיָ֔הוּ וַיְבִאֵ֖הוּ אֶל־הַשָּׂרִֽים׃
πάντες οἱ φίλοι σου ἐπελάθοντό σου οὐ μὴ ἐπερωτήσουσιν ὅτι πληγὴν ἐχθροῦ ἔπαισά σε παιδείαν στερεάν ἐπὶ πᾶσαν ἀδικίαν σου ἐπλήθυναν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου
quam ob rem irati principes contra Jeremiam, caesum eum miserunt in carcerem qui erat in domo Jonathan scribae : ipse enim praepositus erat super carcerem.

Then Jeremiah said, “That is false! I am not defecting to the Chaldeans.” But he didn’t listen to him; so Irijah seized Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes.
37:15
וַיִּקְצְפ֧וּ הַשָּׂרִ֛ים עַֽל־יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ וְהִכּ֣וּ אֹת֑וֹ וְנָתְנ֨וּ אוֹת֜וֹ בֵּ֣ית הָאֵס֗וּר בֵּ֚ית יְהוֹנָתָ֣ן הַסֹּפֵ֔ר כִּי־אֹת֥וֹ עָשׂ֖וּ לְבֵ֥ית הַכֶּֽלֶא׃

Itaque ingressus est Jeremias in domum laci et in ergastulum : et sedit ibi Jeremias diebus multis.

The princes were angry with Jeremiah, and struck him, and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe; for they had made that the prison.
37:16
כִּ֣י בָ֧א יִרְמְיָ֛הוּ אֶל־בֵּ֥ית הַבּ֖וֹר וְאֶל־הַחֲנֻי֑וֹת וַיֵּשֶׁב־שָׁ֥ם יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ יָמִ֥ים רַבִּֽים׃
διὰ τοῦτο πάντες οἱ ἔσθοντές σε βρωθήσονται καὶ πάντες οἱ ἐχθροί σου κρέας αὐτῶν πᾶν ἔδονται ἐπὶ πλῆθος ἀδικιῶν σου ἐπληθύνθησαν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου ἐποίησαν ταῦτά σοι καὶ ἔσονται οἱ διαφοροῦντές σε εἰς διαφόρημα καὶ πάντας τοὺς προνομεύοντάς σε δώσω εἰς προνομήν
Mittens autem Sedecias rex, tulit eum : et interrogavit eum in domo sua abscondite, et dixit : Putasne est sermo a Domino ? Et dixit Jeremias : Est : et ait : In manus regis Babylonis traderis.

When Jeremiah had come into the dungeon house and into the cells, and Jeremiah had remained there many days,
37:17
וַיִּשְׁלַח֩ הַמֶּ֨לֶךְ צִדְקִיָּ֜הוּ וַיִּקָּחֵ֗הוּ וַיִּשְׁאָלֵ֨הוּ הַמֶּ֤לֶךְ בְּבֵיתוֹ֙ בַּסֵּ֔תֶר וַיֹּ֕אמֶר הֲיֵ֥שׁ דָּבָ֖ר מֵאֵ֣ת יְהֹוָ֑ה וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יִרְמְיָ֙הוּ֙ יֵ֔שׁ וַיֹּ֕אמֶר בְּיַ֥ד מֶלֶךְ־בָּבֶ֖ל תִּנָּתֵֽן׃
ὅτι ἀνάξω τὸ ἴαμά σου ἀπὸ πληγῆς ὀδυνηρᾶς ἰατρεύσω σε φησὶν κύριος ὅτι ἐσπαρμένη ἐκλήθης θήρευμα ὑμῶν ἐστιν ὅτι ζητῶν οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτήν
Et dixit Jeremias ad regem Sedeciam : Quid peccavi tibi, et servis tuis, et populo tuo, quia misisti me in domum carceris ?
ወይቤሎ፡ ኤርምያስ፡ ለንጉሥ፡ ሴዴቅያስ፡ ምንት፡ ኃጢአትየ፡ ለከ፡ ወለአግብርቲከ፡ ወለዝንቱ፡ ሕዝብ፡ ከመ፡ ተሀቡኒ፡ በቤተ፡ ሞቅሕ።
then Zedekiah the king sent and had him brought out. The king asked him secretly in his house, “Is there any word from Yahweh?” Jeremiah said, “There is.” He also said, “You will be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon.”
37:18
וַיֹּ֣אמֶר יִרְמְיָ֔הוּ אֶל־הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ צִדְקִיָּ֑הוּ מֶה֩ חָטָ֨אתִֽי לְךָ֤ וְלַעֲבָדֶ֙יךָ֙ וְלָעָ֣ם הַזֶּ֔ה כִּֽי־נְתַתֶּ֥ם אוֹתִ֖י אֶל־בֵּ֥ית הַכֶּֽלֶא׃
οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστρέψω τὴν ἀποικίαν Ιακωβ καὶ αἰχμαλωσίαν αὐτοῦ ἐλεήσω καὶ οἰκοδομηθήσεται πόλις ἐπὶ τὸ ὕψος αὐτῆς καὶ ὁ ναὸς κατὰ τὸ κρίμα αὐτοῦ καθεδεῖται
ubi sunt prophetae vestri, qui prophetabant vobis, et dicebant : Non veniet rex Babylonis super vos, et super terram hanc ?

Moreover Jeremiah said to King Zedekiah, “How have I sinned against you, against your servants, or against this people, that you have put me in prison?
37:19
(ואיו) [וְאַיֵּה֙] נְבִ֣יאֵיכֶ֔ם אֲשֶׁר־נִבְּא֥וּ לָכֶ֖ם לֵאמֹ֑ר לֹא־יָבֹ֤א מֶֽלֶךְ־בָּבֶל֙ עֲלֵיכֶ֔ם וְעַ֖ל הָאָ֥רֶץ הַזֹּֽאת׃

Now where are your prophets who prophesied to you, saying, ‘The king of Babylon will not come against you, nor against this land’?
37:20
וְעַתָּ֕ה שְֽׁמַֽע־נָ֖א אֲדֹנִ֣י הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ תִּפׇּל־נָ֤א תְחִנָּתִי֙ לְפָנֶ֔יךָ וְאַל־תְּשִׁבֵ֗נִי בֵּ֚ית יְהוֹנָתָ֣ן הַסֹּפֵ֔ר וְלֹ֥א אָמ֖וּת שָֽׁם׃

Praecepit ergo rex Sedecias ut traderetur Jeremias in vestibulo carceris, et daretur ei torta panis quotidie, excepto pulmento, donec consumerentur omnes panes de civitate : et mansit Jeremias in vestibulo carceris.

Now please hear, my lord the king: please let my supplication be presented before you, that you not cause me to return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there.”
37:21
וַיְצַוֶּ֞ה הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ צִדְקִיָּ֗הוּ וַיַּפְקִ֣דוּ אֶֽת־יִרְמְיָ֘הוּ֮ בַּחֲצַ֣ר הַמַּטָּרָה֒ וְנָתֹן֩ ל֨וֹ כִכַּר־לֶ֤חֶם לַיּוֹם֙ מִח֣וּץ הָאֹפִ֔ים עַד־תֹּ֥ם כׇּל־הַלֶּ֖חֶם מִן־הָעִ֑יר וַיֵּ֣שֶׁב יִרְמְיָ֔הוּ בַּחֲצַ֖ר הַמַּטָּרָֽה׃

——
Then Zedekiah the king commanded, and they committed Jeremiah into the court of the guard. They gave him daily a loaf of bread out of the bakers’ street, until all the bread in the city was gone. Thus Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.
37:23—
ὅτι ὀργὴ κυρίου ἐξῆλθεν θυμώδης ἐξῆλθεν ὀργὴ στρεφομένη ἐπ’ ἀσεβεῖς ἥξει
——
For the wrath of the Lord has gone forth in fury; a whirling wrath has gone forth; it shall come upon the ungodly.
37:24—
οὐ μὴ ἀποστραφῇ ὀργὴ θυμοῦ κυρίου ἕως ποιήσῃ καὶ ἕως καταστήσῃ ἐγχείρημα καρδίας αὐτοῦ ἐπ’ ἐσχάτων τῶν ἡμερῶν γνώσεσθε αὐτά
——
The wrath of the Lord's fury shall not turn back until he has done it, and until he has established the undertaking of his heart; in the last of the days you shall understand these things.
