Jeremia 3
1 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Ka dichwo oriembo chiege kendo chiege odhi moweye mi okende gi dichwo machielo, bende dodog ir dhakoni kendo? Donge pinyni dibed mochido chuth? To isedak kaka ochot man-gi johera mangʼeny bende koro diduog ira?
They say, If a man put away his wife, and she goe from him, and become another mans, shall hee returne againe vnto her? shall not this land be polluted? but thou hast played the harlot with many louers: yet turne againe to mee, sayeth the Lord.
2 Tingʼ wangʼi malo mondo ingʼiane kuonde motimo ongoro motingʼore mondo ine. Bende nitiere kamoro amora modongʼ e piny mapok iterorigo? E dir yo ne ibet piny ka irito johera magi, ibet piny ka jakwath mamanyo pi ne dhoge e piny motwo. Isedwanyo piny gi chode mari, kod timbegi mamono.
Lift vp thine eyes vnto the hie places, and beholde, where thou hast not plaied the harlot: thou hast sit waiting for them in the waies, as the Arabian in the wildernesse: and thou hast polluted the lande with thy whoredomes, and with thy malice.
3 Emomiyo osetuonu koth, kendo kodh chwiri pod ok ochwe. Kata kamano in gi neno machalo gi mar ochot; wiyi bende ok kuodi nikech ionge gi wichkuot.
Therefore the showres haue beene restrained, and the latter raine came not, and thou haddest a whores forehead: thou wouldest not bee ashamed.
4 Donge koro eka iwachona kama: Wuonwa, osiepna chakre tin-na,
Diddest thou not stil crie vnto me, Thou art my father, and the guide of my youth?
5 inisik ka iyi owangʼ? Bende mirimbi biro bedo manyaka chiengʼ? Ma e kaka iwuoyo, to itimo timbe mamono duto minyalo.”
Wil he keepe his anger for euer? will he reserue it to the ende? thus hast thou spoken, but thou doest euill, euen more and more.
6 E kinde mar loch Ruoth Josia, Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Bende iseneno gima Israel ma ok ja-ratiro otimo? Osedhi ewi gode duto matindo maboyo kendo e bwo yiende duto motimo otiep mi osechodo kanyo.
The Lord saide also vnto me, in the daies of Iosiah the King, Hast thou seene what this rebell Israel hath done? for she hath gone vp vpon euery high mountaine, and vnder euery greene tree, and there plaied the harlot.
7 Ne aparo ni kane osetimo magi duto to ne odhi duogo ira makmana ne ok odwogo, kendo kata mana nyamin mare ma Juda ma ok ja-ratiro noneno mano.
And I sayde, when shee had done all this, Turne thou vnto me: but she returned not, as her rebellious sister Iudah sawe.
8 Ne amiyo Israel maonge gi yie baruwa mar weruok kendo mi ariembe nikech timbene duto mag chode. Kata kamano ne aneno ka nyamin-gi ma Juda maonge ratiro ne ok oluor; en bende nodhi kendo ochodo.
When I sawe, howe that by all occasions rebellious Israel had plaied the harlot, I cast her away, and gaue her a bill of diuorcement: yet her rebellious sister Iudah was not afraied, but shee went also, and plaied the harlot.
9 Nikech anjawo mar Israel nonenore gima tin, ne gidwanyo piny ka gilamo kite kod bepe.
So that for the lightnesse of her whoredome shee hath euen defiled the lande: for shee hath committed fornication with stones and stockes.
10 To kuom magi duto, nyamin mare ma Juda ma ok ja-adiera ka en ne ok odwogo ira gi chunye duto, to mana kuom wuondruok,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
Neuerthelesse for all this, her rebellious sister Iudah hath not returned vnto mee with her whole heart, but fainedly, sayth the Lord.
11 Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Israel maonge gi yie ler moloyo Juda ma ok ja-adiera.
And the Lord said vnto me, The rebellious Israel hath iustified her selfe more then the rebellious Iudah.
12 Dhi mondo iland wachni yo nyandwat ni: “Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, ‘Duogi in Israel maonge gi yie, ok anabed gi mirima kodi kendo, nimar an jangʼwono, iya ok bi wangʼ kodi nyaka chiengʼ.
Goe and crie these woordes towarde the North and say, Thou disobedient Israel, returne, sayeth the Lord, and I will not let my wrath fall vpon you: for I am mercifull, sayeth the Lord, and I will not alway keepe mine anger.
13 Yie kethoni kende nikech isengʼanyone Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi, isekayo timbegi mag ngʼwono mana ne nyiseche manono e bwo yiende motimo otiep, kendo pod ok iluora,’” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
But knowe thine iniquitie: for thou hast rebelled against the Lord thy God, and hast scattered thy waies to the straunge gods vnder euery greene tree, but yee woulde not obey my voyce, sayeth the Lord.
14 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Dwoguru ira, un joga maonge yie, nimar an e chworu. Abiro yierou ka ngʼato achiel oa e dala to ji ariyo koa e anywola mi akelu Sayun.
O yee disobedient children, turne againe, sayeth the Lord, for I am your Lord, and I will take you one of a citie, and two of a tribe and wil bring you to Zion,
15 Eka anamiu jokwath ma chunygi chal koda, mabiro telonu gi rieko kod winjo.”
And I will giue you pastours according to mine heart, which shall feede you with knowledge and vnderstanding.
16 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “E ndalogo, kakwanu osemedore mangʼeny e piny, ji ok nochak owuo kawacho ni, ‘Sandug Muma mar singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye.’ Ok enodonji e parogi bende ok ginipare; ok nodware, kata moro ok nolosi kendo.
Moreouer, when yee be increased and multiplied in the land, in those daies, saieth the Lord, they shall say no more, The Arke of the couenant of the Lord: for it shall come no more to minde, neither shall they remember it, neither shall they visite it, for that shalbe no more done.
17 E kindeno gibiro luongo Jerusalem ni Kom Loch mar Jehova Nyasaye, kendo ogendini duto nochokre ei Jerusalem mondo omi nying Jehova Nyasaye duongʼ. Ok ginichak gitim tim wich teko, bende ok ginibed gi chuny mar timo richo.
At that time they shall cal Ierusalem, The throne of the Lord, and all the nations shall be gathered vnto it, euen to the Name of the Lord in Ierusalem: and thence foorth they shall follow no more the hardnesse of their wicked heart.
18 E ndalogo od Juda biro riwore gi od Israel, kendo giduto ginibi ka gia e piny ma yo nyandwat nyaka e piny mane amiyo kwereu kaka girkeni.
In those daies ye house of Iudah shall walke with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the lande of the North, into the lande, that I haue giuen for an inheritance vnto your fathers.
19 “An awuon ne awacho niya, “‘Mano kaka dabed mamor ka akawou kaka yawuota kendo amiu piny mowinjore, girkeni maber mogik mar piny moro amora.’ Ne aparo ni unyalo luonga ni ‘Wuonwa,’ kendo ni ok unuwe luwa.
But I sayde, Howe did I take thee for children and giue thee a pleasant lande, euen the glorious heritage of the armies of the heathen, and saide, Thou shalt call mee, saying, My father, and shalt not turne from me?
20 To mana ka dhako ma ok ja-ratiro ne chwore, omiyo usebedo maonge gadieri kuoma, yaye od Israel,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
But as a woman rebelleth against her husband: so haue yee rebelled against me, O house of Israel, sayeth the Lord.
21 Ywak iwinjo e kuonde motingʼore motimo ongoro, en kuyo gi secho mar jo-Israel, nikech gisejwangʼo yoregi, kendo wigi osewil gi Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi.
A voice was heard vpon the hie places, weeping and supplications of the children of Israel: for they haue peruerted their way, and forgotten the Lord their God.
22 “Dwoguru, un joma onge yie; abiro thiedhou kuom baro weyo yo.” “Ee, wabiro biro iri, nimar in Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa.
O yee disobedient children, returne and I wil heale your rebellions. Behold, we come vnto thee, for thou art the Lord our God.
23 Adiera lamo nyiseche mopa ewi gode matindo, kod gode madongo en wuond; adier kuom Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasachwa, ema warruok mar Israel yudore.
Truely the hope of the hilles is but vaine, nor the multitude of mountaines: but in the Lord our God is the health of Israel.
24 Chakre tinwa nyiseche manono mag wichkuot osechamo olemb tije wuonewa, ma gin kweth mar jamni, kod kweth mag dhok, yawuotgi kod nyigi.
For confusion hath deuoured our fathers labour, from our youth their sheepe and their bullocks, their sonnes and their daughters.
25 We wanind piny e wichkuot marwa, kendo we timbewa maricho oumwa. Wasetimo richo ne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa, wan kaachiel gi wuonewa; chakre ndalo mane wan rowere nyaka odiechiengni pod ok waluoro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa.”
Wee lie downe in our confusion, and our shame couereth vs: for we haue sinned against the Lord our God, we and our fathers from our youth, euen vnto this day, and haue not obeyed the voyce of the Lord our God.
