Dey live Migdol, Tahpanhes, an Memphis towns, an from dea, up da Nile Riva valley. 2 Jeremiah tell: “Dis wat Da One In Charge, da God Ova All Da Armies, da God fo da Israel peopo tell: ‘You guys wen see all da bad kine stuff I make happen to Jerusalem an all da Judah towns. Now dey stay all bus up, an no mo nobody live ova dea! 3 Az cuz da peopo ova dea wen do real bad kine stuff. Dey make me come real huhu wen dey burn incense an do any kine stuff fo da idol kine gods. Dem guys an you guys an yoa ancesta guys, dey neva know dose gods befo time. 4 Ova an ova, I wen sen you guys all my worka guys dat talk fo me. Dey tell: “Nah, no go do dis kine pilau kine stuff I hate!” 5 But dey neva lissen me, dey ony make deaf ear. Dey no come sorry an dey still yet stay do bad kine stuff. Ova an ova dey stay burn incense fo da odda kine gods. 6 Az why I come real huhu agains da peopo inside da Judah towns an on top da Jerusalem streets. Cuz I wen get mad, da towns stay all bus up an no mo peopo dea now.’

7 “An now, dis wat Da One In Charge, da God Ova All Da Armies, da God fo da Israel peopo, tell: ‘How come you guys stay do all dis real bad kine stuff? You da ones get hurt cuz a dat. You guys cut off erybody from da Judah land, da guys, da wahines, da kids, an da small bebes. An cuz a dat, no mo nobody from yoa peopo alive ova dea. 8 How come you guys make me come real huhu wit yoa idol kine gods dat you guys make wit yoa hands, aah? Cuz you guys burn incense fo da odda gods inside Egypt wea you guys live now! You guys come wipe out. You goin make all da odda peopos on top da earth like put kahuna on top you. Dey goin poin finga you cuz a all da bad stuff you do. 9 How come you guys foget awready, all da real bad kine stuff dat yoa ancesta guys an da Judah kings an queens wen do, aah?! An all da real bad kine stuff you guys an yoa wifes wen do inside da Judah land an on top da Jerusalem streets! 10 Even today you guys no show you come sorry fo wat you wen do. You guys no show respeck fo me. You no follow my rules, an all da stuff I wen tell you guys an yoa ancesta guys dat you gotta do.

11 “ ‘Az why me, Da One In Charge, I go tell you dis. I da God Ova All Da Armies, da God fo da Israel peopo. Dis me, an fo shua, I goin make bad kine stuff happen to you guys, an I goin wipe out all you Judah peopo. 12 I goin take away all da Judah peopo dat stay alive still yet, dat get hard head an go Egypt side fo live ova dea. Dey all goin come wipe out Egypt side cuz a da war, o dey goin come wipe out cuz no mo food. No matta dey importan o not importan, dey goin mahke cuz a da war o cuz no mo food. Dey all goin come wipe out. Odda peopo goin come sked cuz a wat happen to dem, an goin like put kahuna on top dem, an da odda peopo goin poin finga dem fo all da bad stuff dey wen do. 13 I goin punish dose Judah peopo dat live inside Egypt, jalike I wen punish da Jerusalem peopo—wit war, no mo food, an da real bad kine sick. 14 From da Judah peopo dat wen go Egypt side fo live dea, no mo nobody goin run away fo save dea life, o get outa dea fo go back Judah side. No matta how much dey like go home fo live dea, ony litto bit peopo goin stay alive fo go back dea.’ ”

15 Had plenny guys dea dat know dea wifes stay burn incense fo odda gods dat not da real God. An had odda wahines dat wen come togedda dea too, wit da res a dem. All dose Judah peopo dat live on da north side an da south side inside Egypt, dey tell Jeremiah, 16 “No ways! We no goin lissen wat you tell us guys, no matta you tell us you stay talk fo Da One In Charge! 17 Fo shua we goin do eryting we tell we goin do. We goin burn incense fo oua wahine god da Queen Inside Da Sky. We goin pour out drink sacrifices fo her, jalike us guys, oua ancesta guys, da king guys, an oua leada guys wen do inside da Judah towns an on top da Jerusalem streets. Befo time, wen we make lidat, we get plenny food, an we stay rich, an we no suffa notting bad. 18 But you know wat?! Wen we stop burn incense fo da Queen Inside Da Sky, an pour out da drink offering fo her, us no mo notting, an mo an mo peopo mahke cuz a da war an cuz no mo food!”

19 An da wahines tell: “Wen we stay burn incense fo da Queen Inside Da Sky, an pour out drink offering fo her, you tink oua husbans neva know dat we make small kine bread dat look jalike her, an pour out da drink offering fo her? Fo shua dey know!”

20 Den Jeremiah tell all da peopo, da guys an wahines dat stay in his face, 21 “You guys tink Da One In Charge foget da incense you wen burn, o wat?! You guys, an yoa ancesta guys, an yoa king guys, an yoa leada guys, an da peopo inside da land wen burn um inside da Judah towns an on top da Jerusalem streets?! Fo shua, Da One In Charge neva foget bout all dat kine stuff! 22 You guys all da time wen do da worses pilau kine stuff eva. But Da One In Charge, he had it awready wit you guys. Az how come yoa land come all wipe out. An dass goin get one bad rep dat peopo like use fo put kahuna on top somebody, cuz no mo peopo live ova dea. An dass how stay today. 23 You guys burn incense an wen do bad kine stuff agains Da One In Charge. You guys no lissen wat Da One In Charge tell you, o follow his rules, o do da odda stuff he tell you guys you gotta do. You no live da way he like you fo live. An az why all dis bad kine stuff happen to you guys, jalike how stay now.”

24 Den Jeremiah tell all da peopo, an all da wahines too: “Lissen wat Da One In Charge tell, all you Judah peopo dat stay Egypt side. 25 Dis wat Da One In Charge, da God Ova All Da Armies, da God fo da Israel peopo, tell: ‘You guys an yoa wifes wen make one spesho promise. You tell dat fo shua you goin do eryting you wen make spesho promise fo do, fo burn incense fo da Queen Inside Da Sky, an pour out drink offering fo her. An now you guys stay do jalike you wen promise fo do.’

“Kay den, go ahead! Do wat you wen promise fo do! Make shua you do eryting you wen make one spesho kine promise fo do! 26 But lissen wat Da One In Charge tell, all you Jews dat live inside Egypt! He tell: ‘Me, Da One In Charge, I get da rights fo make dis spesho promise cuz a who me, I da greates. No mo nobody from Judah goin use my name fo make one spesho kine promise, o go tell stuff like “I tell dis cuz I stay shua Da One In Charge a me stay alive!” fo make dea promise come strong, any place ova dea inside Egypt. 27 I watch dem real good. So den watevas dey do wrong, I goin bus um up, an no do good kine stuff fo dem. All da Jews Egypt side goin mahke cuz a da war an cuz no mo food, till no mo nobody goin stay alive. 28 But if get anybody dat no mahke cuz a da war, an dey get away an go back inside da Judah land from Egypt, ony goin be litto bit peopo. Den all da Judah peopo dat wen come fo live Egypt side goin know fo shua who stay tell da trut, me o dem.’ ”

29 Da One In Charge tell: “All dis goin be jalike one sign fo show you guys dat I goin punish you guys inside dis place. Dass how you guys goin know, all dat I tell bout da bad kine stuff, I goin make happen to you guys.”
