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:

That same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the LORD’s house, 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.

“The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says, ‘I have broken 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 I will bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORD’s house that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away 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.’”

I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, who went to Babylon,’ says the LORD; ‘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 the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people who stood in the LORD’s house,

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.

even the prophet Jeremiah said, “Amen! May the LORD do so. May the LORD perform your words which you have prophesied, to bring again the vessels of the LORD’s house, and all those who are captives, from Babylon to this place.

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

Nevertheless listen now to this word that I speak in your 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 you of old prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, of evil, and of pestilence.

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

As for the prophet who prophesies of peace, when the word of the prophet happens, then the prophet will be known, that the LORD has truly sent him.”

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

Then Hananiah the prophet took the bar from off 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.

Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, “The LORD says: ‘Even so I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from off the neck of all the nations within two full years.’” Then 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 the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, after Hananiah the prophet had broken the bar from off 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, ‘The LORD says, “You have broken the bars of wood, but you have made in their place bars 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 the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says, “I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they will serve him. I have also given him the animals of the field.”’”

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

Then the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet, “Listen, Hananiah! The LORD has not sent you, but you make this people 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 the LORD says, ‘Behold, I will send you away from off the surface of the earth. This year you will die, because you have spoken rebellion against the LORD.’”

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

So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.
