Jeremia 26

1 E chakruok mar loch Jehoyakim wuod Josia ruodh Juda, wachni nobiro koa ir Jehova Nyasaye:

In the beginning of the reign of Joakim the son of Josias king of Juda, came this word from the Lord, saying:

2 “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Chungi e laru mar od Jehova Nyasaye kendo iwuo gi ji duto manie dala mar Juda ma lemoga e od Jehova Nyasaye. Nyisgi gik moko duto manyisi; kik iwe kata wach achiel.

Thus saith the Lord: Stand in the court of the house of the Lord, and speak to all the cities of Juda, out of which they come, to adore in the house of the Lord, all the words which I have commanded thee to to speak unto them: leave not out one word.

3 Sa moro ginichik itgi kendo ngʼato ka ngʼato olokre owe yorene maricho. Eka analok pacha kendo ok anakel kuomgi masira mane achano nikech timbe maricho magisetimo.

If so be they will hearken and be converted every one from his evil way; that I may repent me of the evil that I think to do unto them for the wickedness of their doings.

4 Wachnegi ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Ka ok uwinja kendo uluwo chikena, ma aseketo e nyimu,

And thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord: If you will not hearken to me to walk in my law, which I have given to you:

5 kendo ka ok uwinjo weche mag jotichna ma jonabi, maseoronu pile ka pile (kata kamano pod ok uwinjo),

To give ear to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I sent to you rising up early: and sending, and you have not hearkened:

6 bangʼe anami odni obed ka Shilo kendo dala maduongʼni ka gima okwongʼ e dier ogendini duto mag piny.’”

I will make this house like Silo: and I will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth.

7 Jodolo, jonabi kod ji duto nowinjo Jeremia kawacho wechegi e od Jehova Nyasaye.

And the priests, and the prophets, and all the people heard Jeremias speaking these words in the house of the Lord.

8 To bangʼ ka Jeremia nosetieko nyiso ji duto gik moko duto mane Jehova Nyasaye ochike mondo owachi, jodolo, jonabi kod ji duto nomake kendo owachone niya, “Nyaka itho!

And when Jeremias made an end of speaking all that the Lord had commanded him to speak to all the people, the priests, and the prophets, and all the people laid hold on him, saying: Let him be put to death.

9 Angʼo ma omiyo ikoro e nying Jehova Nyasaye ni odni biro chalo ka Shilo kendo ni dala maduongʼni nojwangʼ kendo nokethi maonge ngʼama nodagie?” Kendo ji duto nochokore kolworo Jeremia e od Jehova Nyasaye.

Why hath he prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying: This house shall be like Silo; and this city shall be made desolate, without an inhabitant? And all the people were gathered together against Jeremias in the house of the Lord.

10 Ka jotend jo-Juda nowinjo wechegi, negia kar dak mar ruoth ma gidhi nyaka e od Jehova Nyasaye kendo negikawo keregi e kar donjo mar Dhorangach Manyien mar od Jehova Nyasaye.

And the princes of Juda heard these words: and they went up from the king’s house into the house of the Lord, and sat in the entry of the new gate of the house of the Lord.

11 Eka jodolo kod jonabi nowachone jotelo kod ji duto niya, “Ngʼatni onego ngʼadne buch nek nikech nokoro kuom dala maduongʼni. Usewinje gi itu uwegi!”

And the priests and the prophets spoke to the princes, and to all the people, saying: The judgement of death is for this man: because he hath prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your ears.

12 Eka Jeremia nowachone jotelo duto kod ji duto niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ne oora mondo akor kuom odni kod dala maduongʼni gigo duto musewinjo.

Then Jeremias spoke to all the princes, and to all the people, saying: The Lord sent me to prophesy concerning this house, and concerning this city all the words you have heard.

13 Koro lokuru yoreu gi timbeu kendo uluor Nyasachu. Eka Jehova Nyasaye nolok pache kendo ok nokel masira kuomu mosechano timonu.

Now therefore amend your ways, and your doings, and hearken to the voice of the Lord your God: and the Lord will repent of the evil that he hath spoken against you.

14 Anto an e lweti; timnauru gima uneno ka ber kendo nikare.

But as for me, behold I am in your hands: do with me what is good and right in your eyes:

15 To ngʼeuru gadieri ni, ka unega, to unukel ketho kuom chwero remo maonge ketho kuomu uwegi kendo kuom dala maduongʼni gi jogo modak e iye, nimar adiera Jehova Nyasaye oseora iru mondo awachnu wechegi duto ka uwinjo gi itu.”

But know ye, and understand, that if you put me to death, you will shed innocent blood against your own selves, and against this city, and the inhabitants thereof. For in truth the Lord sent me to you, to speak all these words in your hearing.

16 Eka jotelo duto kod ji duto nowachone jodolo gi jonabi niya, “Ngʼatni ok onego ngʼadne buch tho! Osewuoyonwa e nying Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa.”

Then the princes, and all the people said to the priests, and to the prophets: There is no judgement of death for this man: for he hath spoken to us in the name of the Lord our God.

17 Jodongo moko mag piny nosudo nyime e lela kendo owachone chokruok mangima mar ji ni,

And some of the ancients of the land rose up: and they spoke to all the assembly of the people, saying:

18 “Mika maa Moresheth nokoro e ndalo Hezekia ruodh Juda. Nonyiso jo-Juda duto ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho: “‘Sayun ibiro pur ka puodho, Jerusalem biro dongʼ gunda, got matin mogerie hekalu nobed ka bungu motwere moyugno.’

Micheas of Morasthi was a prophet in the days of Ezechias king of Juda, and he spoke to all the people of Juda, saying: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Sion shall be ploughed like a field, and Jerusalem shall be a heap of stones: and the mountain of the house the high places of woods.

19 Bende Hezekia ruodh Juda kata ngʼato angʼata man Juda nonegi? Donge Hezekia noluoro Jehova Nyasaye kendo omanyo ngʼwono mare? Kendo donge Jehova Nyasaye noloko pache, mi omiyo ne ok okelo masira kuomgi? Wachiegni kelo masira malich kuomwa wawegi!”

Did Ezechias king of Juda, and all Juda, condemn him to death? did they not fear the Lord, and beseech the face of the Lord: and the Lord repented of the evil that they had spoken against them? therefore we are doing a great evil against our souls.

20 (Koro Uria wuod Shemaya moa Kiriath Jearim ne ngʼat machielo mane okoro e nying Jehova Nyasaye; nokoro mana gik machalre kuom dala maduongʼni kendo pinyni mana kaka Jeremia notimo.

There was also a man that prophesied in the name of the Lord, Urias the son of Semei of Cariathiarim: and he prophesied against this city, and against this land, according to all the words of Jeremias.

21 Ka Ruoth Jehoyakim kod jotende duto nowinjo wechege, ruoth ne dwaro mondo onege. To Uria nowinjo ma kendo oringo ka luoro omake nyaka Misri.

And Joakim, and all his men in power, and his princes heard these words: and the king sought to put him to death. And Urias heard it, and was afraid, and fled and went into Egypt.

22 Ruoth Jehoyakim, kata kamano, nooro Elnathan wuod Akbor nyaka Misri, kaachiel gi chwo mamoko.

And king Joakim sent men into Egypt, Elnathan the son of Achobor, and men with him into Egypt.

23 Negigolo Uria Misri kendo gitere ne Ruoth Jehoyakim, mane omiyo onege gi ligangla kendo dende owiti e kar yiko mar ji ajiya.)

And they brought Urias out of Egypt: and brought him to king Joakim, and he slew him with the sword: and he cast his dead body into the graves of the common people.

24 Bende, Ahikam wuod Shafan noriwo Jeremia lwedo, kendo omiyo ne ok ochiwe e lwet jogo mondo onege.

So the hand of Ahicam the son of Saphan was with Jeremias, that he should not be delivered into the hands of the people, to put him to death.
