1 N ana moan ririki Tairati+ ae Ueani Botia, ao Iehova e a kauekea nanon Tairati are Ueani Botia bwa e aonga ni kakororaoaki ana taeka Iehova are e taekinna Ieremia,+ bwa e na katanoataa rinanon aaba ake e tautaekan, are e koreia+ naba ni kangai:
2 “E kangai ana taeka Tairati are Ueani Botia, ‘E a tia Iehova ae Atuani karawa n anganai taian tautaeka n uea ni kabane n te aonnaba,+ ao e mwiokoai bwa N na katea ana auti i Ierutarem,+ are i Iuta.
3 Ngkana iai ana aomata i buakomi ni kabane, ao ke e memena Atuana irouna, ao ke e nako Ierutarem, are i Iuta, ao ni manga katea ana auti Iehova ae Atuan Iteraera. Bon te Atua ae koaua ngaia, are e mena i Ierutarem ana auti.*
4 Ane e maeka n iruwa+ n te tabo teuana ane e mena iai, ao ke e buokaki irouia kaain rarikina,* n aroia n anganna te tirewa, te koora, bwaai, ao nanai ni man, n ikotaki ma te karea ni kan anga ibukin ana auti te Atua ae koaua,+ are i Ierutarem.’”
5 Ao a katauraoiia tibun Iuta ma tibuni Beniamin aika mataniwi i aoia aia koraki mairoun tamaia, ao ibonga* ma tibun Rewi, ake te koraki ni kabane ake a kauekeaki nanoia iroun te Atua ae koaua, bwa a na waerake ao ni manga katea ana auti Iehova, are i Ierutarem.
6 Ao a bane aomata ake i rarikia ni boutokaiia, n aroia n angania* baika karaoaki man te tirewa, te koora, ao bwaai, nanai ni man, ao baika kakawaki, i rarikin taiani karea ni kan anga ni kabane.
7 Ao te Uea are Tairati e kaotinakoi naba bwain ana auti Iehova, ake e anai Nebukaneta mai Ierutarem ni kaaki n ana auti atuana.+
8 E kaotinakoi baikai Tairati are Ueani Botia i aan ana tararua Miteretata are te tia kawakini baika kakawaki, are e wareki mwaitiia ao n angan Tietibatara*+ are te mataniwi i aon Iuta.
9 Ao aikai mwaitini baika karinanaki: bwaene aika 30 aika koora, bwaene aika 1,000 aika tirewa, 29 bwaai riki tabeua aika nneni bwaai,
10 boora aika uarereke aika 30 aika koora, boora aika uarereke aika 410 aika tirewa, ao bwaai ni mwakuri riki tabeua aika 1,000.
11 Bon 5,400 bwaai ni kabane ake a karaoaki man te koora ao te tirewa. E uotii baikai ni kabane Tietibatara, ngke a kaotinakoaki taenikai+ mai Baburon nako Ierutarem.
