Jeremia 10
1 Winji gima Jehova Nyasaye wachoni, yaye od Israel.
Heare ye the worde of the Lord that he speaketh vnto you, O house of Israel.
2 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Kik ipuonjri yore ogendini kata ibed gi bwok gi ranyisi manie kor polo, kata obedo ni gibwogo ogendini.
Thus saith the Lord, Learne not the way of the heathen, and be not afraid for the signes of heauen, though the heathen be afraid of such.
3 Nimar kit jogi kod timbegi onge tiende; gingʼado yien koa e bungu, bangʼe japecho paye gi koyo mare.
For the customes of the people are vaine: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest (which is the worke of the handes of the carpenter) with the axe,
4 Giwire gi fedha gi dhahabu; giriwe motegno gi musmal ka gigoye gi nyundo, mondo kik oyiengni.
And another decketh it with siluer, and with golde: they fasten it with nailes, and hammers, that it fall not.
5 Mana kaka gima ibwogogo gik moko e puothe mag budho, e kaka nyisechegi manonogo ok nyal wuoyo; nyaka tingʼ-gi nikech ok ginyal wuotho. Kik uluorgi; ok ginyal hinyou kata timonu gima ber.”
The idoles stande vp as the palme tree, but speake not: they are borne because they cannot go feare them not, for they cannot do euill, neither can they do good.
6 Onge ngʼama chalo kodi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; iduongʼ, kendo nyingi maratego nigi teko.
There is none like vnto thee, O Lord: thou art great, and thy name is great in power.
7 En ngʼa ma ok onego miyi luor, yaye Ruodh ogendini? Ma gima iwinjori godo. Kuom jorieko duto mag ogendini kod kuom pinjeruodhigi duto, onge ngʼama chalo kodi.
Who would not feare thee, O King of nations? for to thee appertaineth the dominion: for among all the wise men of the Gentiles, and in al their kingdomes there is none like thee.
8 Giduto gionge paro kendo gifuwo; ipuonjogi gi nyiseche manono mag bepe mopa maonge tich.
But, altogether they dote, and are foolish: for the stocke is a doctrine of vanitie.
9 Fedha mothedhi ikelo koa Tarshish kendo dhahabu koa Ufaz. Gima japecho kod jatheth oseloso irwako gi lewni marambulu gi maralik, giduto olosgi gi jotich molony.
Siluer plates are brought from Tarshish, and golde from Vphaz, for the worke of the workeman, and the handes of the founder: the blewe silke, and the purple is their clothing: all these things are made by cunning men.
10 To Jehova Nyasaye e Nyasaye madieri; en e Nyasaye mangima, Ruoth manyaka chiengʼ. Ka iye owangʼ, to piny tetni; ogendini ok nyal mirimbe.
But the Lord is the God of trueth: he is the liuing God, and an euerlasting King: at his anger the earth shall tremble, and the nations cannot abide his wrath.
11 “Nyisgi ma: ‘Nyiseche manonogi, mane ok ochweyo polo gi piny, nolal nono e piny kendo e bwo polo.’”
(Thus shall you say vnto them, The gods that haue not made the heauens and the earth, shall perish from the earth, and from vnder these heauens)
12 To Nyasaye nochweyo piny gi tekone; ne ochako piny gi riekone, kendo oyaro polo gi ngʼeyo mare.
He hath made the earth by his power, and established the worlde by his wisedome, and hath stretched out the heauen by his discretion.
13 Ka omor ka polo, to pige manie polo wuo; omiyo boche polo dhwolore koa e giko piny. Ooro mil polo gi koth kendo okelo yamo koa e kuondege mag keno.
Hee giueth by his voyce the multitude of waters in the heauen, and he causeth the cloudes to ascend from the endes of the earth: he turneth lightnings to rayne, and bringeth forth the winde out of his treasures.
14 Ji duto parogi ok ti kendo gionge ngʼeyo; jotheth duto wigi kuot gi nyisechegi manono ma githedho. Kido mage moloso gin gik manono; gionge muya eigi.
Euery man is a beast by his owne knowledge: euery founder is confounded by the grauen image: for his melting is but falsehood, and there is no breath therein.
15 Gionge tich, gin gik minyiero; ka ndalogi mar ngʼado bura ochopo, to ginilal nono.
They are vanitie, and the worke of errours: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
16 Jalno ma en Pok mar Jakobo ok chal kodgi, nimar en e Jachwech mar gik moko duto, nyaka Israel, ma en dhood girkeni mare, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego e nyinge.
The portion of Iaakob is not like them: for he is the maker of all things, and Israel is the rodde of his inheritance: the Lord of hostes is his Name.
17 Chokuru giu duto mondo ua e pinyno, un joma ogengʼnigi.
Gather vp thy wares out of the land, O thou that dwellest in the strong place.
18 Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “E kindeni machalo kama, abiro daro ji modak e pinyni; anakel sandruok kuomgi mondo mi omakgi.”
For thus sayth the Lord, Beholde, at this time I will throwe as with a sling the inhabitants of the lande, and will trouble them, and they shall finde it so.
19 To mano kaka litna nikech hinyruok mara! Adhonda ok thiedhre! Kata kamano awacho ne an owuon ni, “Ma en twona, kendo nyaka angʼi kode.”
Wo is me for my destruction, and my grieuous plague: but I thought, Yet it is my sorow, and I will beare it.
20 Hemba okethi; tonde mitweyego duto ochodi. Yawuota oweya kendo ok gin koda; onge ngʼama odongʼ manyalo gurona hemba kata gerona kambi.
My tabernacle is destroyed, and all my coardes are broken: my children are gone from me, and are not: there is none to spread out my tent any more, and to set vp my curtaines.
21 Jokwath onge rieko to bende ok gipenj Jehova Nyasaye wach; mano emomiyo ok gidhi nyime maber kendo rombe mag-gi duto oke.
For the Pastours are become beasts, and haue not sought the Lord: therefore haue they none vnderstanding: and all the flockes of their pastures are scattered.
22 Chik iti! Wach biro niya, tungni maduongʼ koa e piny man yo nyandwat! Anami dala mag Juda odongʼ nono, kama ondiegi ema odakie.
Beholde, the noyse of the brute is come, and a great commotion out of the North countrey to make the cities of Iudah desolate, and a denne of dragons.
23 Angʼeyo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ni ngima dhano ok en mare owuon; ok en mar dhano mondo ochik yorene.
O Lord, I knowe, that the way of man is not in himselfe, neyther is it in man to walke and to direct his steps.
24 Rieya, Jehova Nyasaye, to mana gi bura makare ma ok e ich wangʼ, ka ok kamano to ditieka chuth.
O Lord, correct mee, but with iudgement, not in thine anger, least thou bring mee to nothing.
25 Ol mirimbi kuom ogendini ma ok ongʼeyi, kuom ji ma ok luong nyingi. Nimar gisetieko Jakobo; gisetieke chuth kendo giseketho dalane.
Powre out thy wrath vpon the heathen, that knowe thee not, and vpon the families that call not on thy Name: for they haue eaten vp Iaakob and deuoured him and consumed him, and haue made his habitation desolate.
