2 “Dhi kendo igo milome ka Jerusalem winjo ni: “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “‘Aparo kaka ne ichiwori kane in rawera, ne ihera ka nyako moikore ne kend, ne iluwo bangʼa kama otimo ongoro, e piny ma ok purie.
“Hamba umemezele iJerusalema lisizwa uthi: Lokhu yikho okutshiwo nguThixo: ‘Ngiyakukhumbula ukuzinikela kwasebutsheni bakho, ukungithanda kwakho njengomlobokazi ungilandela enkangala, phakathi kwelizwe elingahlanyelwanga.
3 Israel ne en oganda maler ne Jehova Nyasaye, kaka olembege mokwongo chiek; jogo duto mane okidhe nomak kaka joketho, kendo masira nomakogi,’” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
U-Israyeli wayengcwele kuThixo, eyizithelo zakuqala zesivuno sakhe, bonke abamtshwabadelayo baba lecala, behlelwa yincithakalo,’” kutsho uThixo.
4 Winj wach Jehova Nyasaye, yaye od Jakobo, un dhoudi duto mag dhood Israel.

5 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “En ketho mane mane wuoneu oyudo kuoma, momiyo ne gibaro mabor koda? Negiluwo bangʼ nyiseche manono mi gibedo manono gin giwegi.
UThixo uthi: “Yibubi bani okhokho benu ababubona kimi, baze bedukele khatshana kangaka lami? Balandela izithombe eziyize, labo ngokwabo baba yize.
6 Ne ok gipenjo ni, ‘Ere Jehova Nyasaye, mane ogolowa Misri, kendo otelonwa e thim ma ok nyag gimoro, ka wakalo piny motwo kod piny motimo bugni, piny ongoro kod mudho, piny maonge ngʼama wuothoe, kendo onge ngʼama odakie?’
Kababuzanga ukuthi, ‘Ungaphi uThixo, owasikhupha elizweni laseGibhithe wasikhokhela emagangeni alugwadule phakathi kwelizwe lezinkangala lezindonga, ilizwe lokoma lobumnyama, ilizwe elingahanjwa muntu lelingelamuntu ohlala kulo?’
7 Ne akelou e piny momewo mondo ucham olembege kod nyak mage momewo. To ne ubiro mi unjawo pinya kendo umiyo girkeni maga obedo gima odwanyore.
Ngaliletha elizweni elivundileyo ukuba lidle izithelo zalo lezilimo ezinhle. Kodwa lina lafika langcolisa ilizwe lami, lenza ilifa lami langakhwabitheki.
8 Jodolo ne ok openjo, ‘Ere Jehova Nyasaye?’ Jogo matiyo gi chik ne ok ongʼeya; jotelo nongʼanyona. Jonabi nokoro gi Baal, ka giluwo nyiseche manono.”
Abaphristi kababuzanga ukuthi, ‘Ungaphi UThixo?’ Labo abaphatha umthetho abangazanga; abakhokheli bangihlamukela. Abaphrofethi baphrofetha ngoBhali balandela izithombe eziyize.
9 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Emomiyo abiro kumou kendo. Bende abiro kumo nyikwau.
Ngakho-ke ngilethesa amacala futhi,” kutsho uThixo. “Labantwana babantwana benu ngizabethesa amacala.

12 Kuom mano, agolonu chik, un polo, mondo uyiengni malich, kuwuoro kendo kudhier nono,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
Mangalani lokhu, lina mazulu, lithuthumele ngokwesaba okukhulu,” kutsho UThixo.

18 Koro angʼo momiyo udhi Misri mondo umodh pi moa Shihor? Kendo angʼo momiyo udhi Asuria mondo umodh pi moa e Aora?
Khathesi kungani usiya eGibhithe ukuba unathe amanzi eShihori na? Njalo kungani usiya e-Asiriya ukuba unathe amanzi eYufrathe na?
19 Timbeu maricho biro kelonu kum; wech mane uweyago ema biro kelonu kum. Nonuru kendo ubiro ngʼeyo malongʼo, kaka en gima rach kendo lit ne un uwegi, ka ujwangʼo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, kendo ubedo maonge kode gi luor kata matin,” Ruoth Nyasaye ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, owacho kamano.

21 Ne apidhoi kaka mzabibu mar kodhi, moyier makare kendo manyak. Kara ere kaka ne iweya mi idonjo e timbe moduwore, kendo ichalo gi mzabibu mar bungu.
Ngikuhlanyele njengevini elikhethiweyo elohlobo oluqinileyo loluthembekileyo. Pho kwenzakala njani ukuba ungiphendukele ube livini elibolileyo, leganga?
22 Kata bedni ilwoko lweti gi magadi kendo itiyo gi sabun mangʼeny, chilo mar ketho mari pod nitiere e nyima,” Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto owacho.

Njengokuyangeka kwesela nxa selibanjiwe, ngokunjalo abantu bako-Israyeli bayangekile, bona kanye lamakhosi abo lezikhulu zabo, abaphristi babo labaphrofethi babo.

Wena owalesisizukulwane, khumbula ilizwi likaThixo: Ngibe ngiyinkangala ku-Israyeli kumbe ilizwe lomnyama omkhulu na? Kungani abantu bami besithi, ‘Sikhululekile ukuba sizulazule; kasiyikuza kuwe futhi’?
32 Bende miaha diwiye wil gi gik molichorego, kata nyako midhi kendo gi lepe mag kisera? Joga to wigi osewil koda, odiechienge ma ok kwan.
