Jeremia 28

1 E dwe mar abich mar higa nogono, higa mar angʼwen, e chakruok mar loch mar Zedekia ruodh Juda, janabi Hanania wuod Azur, manoa Gibeon, nowachona e od Jehova Nyasaye e nyim jodolo kod ji duto ni:

And it came to pass in the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananiah, the son of Azur the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,

2 “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: ‘Anatur jok mar ruodh Babulon.

Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: “I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3 Kuom higni ariyo abiro duogo kae gik moko duto mag od Jehova Nyasaye mane Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon ogolo kae kendo otero Babulon.

Within two full years will I bring again to this place all the vessels of the house of Jehovah, which Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon took from this place, and carried to Babylon.

4 Bende anaduog kae Jehoyakin wuod Jehoyakim ruodh Juda kod jogo mamoko duto mane oter e twech koa Juda mane odhi Babulon,’ Jehova Nyasaye owacho, ‘nimar anatur jok mar ruodh Babulon.’”

And Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the captives of Judah that went to Babylon, will I bring again to this place, saith Jehovah; for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.”

5 Eka janabi Jeremia nodwoko janabi Hanania e nyim jodolo kod ji duto mane ochungʼ e od Jehova Nyasaye.

Then Jeremiah the prophet spake to Hananiah the prophet, in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people that stood in the house of Jehovah.

6 Nowacho niya, “Amin! Mad Jehova Nyasaye tim kamano! Mad Jehova Nyasaye chop singruok mar weche misekoro kuom kelo gige od Jehova Nyasaye kod joma notwe duto kae koa Babulon.

And Jeremiah the prophet said, Amen! So may Jehovah do! May Jehovah fulfill thy words which thou hast prophesied, and bring back the vessels of the house of Jehovah, and all the captives from Babylon to this place!

7 Kata kamano, chik iti ne gima adwaro wachonu ka uwinjo kendo ka ji duto winjo:

Nevertheless, hear now this word, which I speak in thine ears, and in the ears of all the people.

8 E kinde machon jonabi mane obiro moteloni kendo otelona nokoro kuom lweny, chandruok kod masira kuom pinje mangʼeny kod pinjeruodhi madongo.

The prophets who have been before me and before thee from ancient times have also prophesied against many nations, and against great kingdoms, of war, of calamity, and of pestilence.

9 To janabi makoro kwe nowinji mana ka ngʼatno moor gi Jehova Nyasaye adier mana ka gima okoro otimore.”

The prophet who prophesieth of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall he be known as a prophet whom Jehovah hath truly sent.

10 Eka janabi Hanania nogolo jok e ngʼut janabi Jeremia kendo oture,

Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and broke it.

11 kendo nowacho e nyim ji duto niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Mana e yo machalre gima ema anagolie jok mar Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon mane oketo e ngʼut ogendini kapok higni ariyo orumo.’” Bangʼ wacho ma, janabi Jeremia nochungo modhi.

And Hananiah spake in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus saith Jehovah: In this manner will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, from the neck of all the nations, within the space of two full years. And the prophet Jeremiah went his way.

12 Mapiyo bangʼ ka janabi Hanania ne oseturo jok e ngʼut janabi Jeremia, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia:

Then came the word of Jehovah to Jeremiah, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying:

13 “Dhiyo kendo inyis Hanania, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Iseturo jok mar bao, to e kar mano enoketni jok mar chuma.

Go and tell Hananiah, saying: Thou hast broken a yoke of wood, but thou shalt make instead of it a yoke of iron.

14 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Anaket jok mar chuma e ngʼut ogendinigi mondo gitine Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon, kendo ginitine. Kendo anamiye teko ewi le mag bungu.’”

For thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: A yoke of iron do I put upon the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon; and they shall serve him. The beasts of the field also do I give to him.

15 Eka janabi Jeremia nowachone janabi Hanania, “Winji Hanania! Jehova Nyasaye pok oori, to isehoyo ogandagi mondo ogen kuom miriambo.

Jeremiah the prophet said also to Hananiah the prophet: Hear now, Hananiah! Jehovah hath not sent thee; but thou makest this people to trust in a lie.

16 Emomiyo, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Achiegni goli e pinyni. Mana e higani idhi tho, nikech iseyalo ngʼanyo ne Jehova Nyasaye.’”

Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will cast thee off from the face of the earth. This year thou shalt die; for thou hast spoken rebellion against Jehovah.

17 E dwe mar abiriyo mar higa onogono, Hanania janabi notho.

And Hananiah the prophet died in the same year, in the seventh month.
