Jeremia 32
1 Ma e wach mane obirone Jeremia koa kuom Jehova Nyasaye e higa mar apar mar Zedekia ruodh Juda, ma ne en higa mar apar gaboro mar Nebukadneza.
The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord in the tenth year of Sedecias king of Juda: the same is eighteenth year of Nabuchodonosor.
2 Jolwenj ruodh Babulon ne monjo Jerusalem, kendo Jeremia janabi ne otwe e agola moriti e kar dak mar ruodh Juda.
At that time the army of the king o Babylon besieged Jerusalem: and Jeremias the prophet was shut up in the court of the prison, which was in the house of the king of Juda.
3 Koro Zedekia ruodh Juda nokete e twech kanyo, kawacho niya, “Angʼo momiyo ikoro wach kamano? Ka iwacho ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye owacho: Achiegni chiwo dala maduongʼni ne ruodh Babulon, kendo enoloye.
For Sedecias king of Juda had shut him up, saying: Why dost thou prophesy, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it?
4 Zedekia ruodh Juda ok notony e lwet jo-Babulon to enochiwe ne ruodh Babulon, kendo enowuo kode wangʼ gi wangʼ mi enonene gi wengene owuon.
And Sedecias king of Juda shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans: but he shall be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon: and he shall speak to him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall see his eyes.
5 Noter Zedekia Babulon, kama enosikie nyaka atimne gima adwaro, Jehova Nyasaye owacho. Ka ukedo gi jo-Babulon, to ok unulogi.’”
And he shall lead Sedecias to Babylon: and he shall be there till I visit him, saith the Lord. But if you will fight against the Chaldeans, you shall have no success.
6 Jeremia nowacho niya, “Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona:
And Jeremias said: The word of the Lord came to me, saying:
7 Hanamel wuod Shalum ma wuod owadgi wuonu nobi iri kendo nowach ni, ‘Ngʼiew lopa man Anathoth, nikech kaka watna machiegni koda en ratiro mari kendo tiji mondo ingʼiewe.’
Behold, Hanameel the son of Sellum thy cousin shall come to thee, saying: Buy thee my field, which is in Anathoth, for it is thy right to buy it, being akin.
8 “Eka, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosewacho, omera Hanamel nobiro ira e agola mar jarito kendo owacho ni, ‘Ngʼiew puotha man Anathoth kama Benjamin orito. Nikech en ratiro mari mondo ingʼiewe kendo ikawe, ngʼiewe ne in owuon.’ “Ne angʼeyo ni ma ne en wach Jehova Nyasaye;
And Hanameel my uncle’s son cam to me, according to the word of the to the entry of the prison, and said me: Buy my held, which is in in the land of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thins, and thou art next of kin to possess it. And I understood this was the word of the Lord.
9 omiyo ne angʼiewo puodho man Anathoth kuom wuod owadgi wuonwa Hanamel kendo apimone shekel apar gabiriyo mar fedha.
And I bought the held of my uncle’s son, that is in Anathoth: and I weighed him the money, seven staters, and ten pieces of silver.
10 Ne aketo seyi kendo agoyo amuri, ka joneno obedo, kendo apimo fedha e ratil.
And I wrote it in a book and sealed it, and took witnesses: and I weighed him the money in the balances.
11 Ne akawo barup ngʼiepo, mano mogoye amuri momwon motingʼo singruok kod chike mag ngʼiewo lowo, to gi mano ma ok omuon
And I took the deed of the purchase that was sealed, and the stipulations, and the ratifications with the seals that were on the outside.
12 kendo ne achiwo baruwani ne Baruk wuod Neria, wuod Maseya, e nyim omera Hanamel kod joneno mane ogo seyi e barup winjruok kod jo-Yahudi mane obet e agola mar jarito.
And I gave the deed of the purchase to Baruch the son of Neri the son of Maasias in the sight of Hanameel my uncle’s son, in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, and before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.
13 “E nyimgi ne amiyo Baruk puonjgi:
And I charged Baruch before them, saying:
14 ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Kaw barupegi, mago momwon kod ma ok omuon, kendo iketgi e agulu mar lowo mondo omi gibed amingʼa.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Take these writings, this deed of the purchase that is sealed up, and this deed that is open: and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may continue many days.
15 Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Udi, puothe kod puothe mzabibu bende ibiro chak ngʼiew e pinyni.’
For thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Houses, and fields, and vineyards shall be possessed again in this land.
16 “Bangʼ kane asechiwo barup ngʼiepo ne Baruk wuod Neria, ne alamo Jehova Nyasaye kama:
And after I had delivered the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neri, I prayed to the Lord, saying:
17 “Yaye, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, isechweyo polo gi piny kuom tekoni maduongʼ kod badi malach. Onge gima tekni.
Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God, behold thou hast made heaven and earth by thy great power, and thy stretched out arm: no word shall be hard to thee:
18 Inyiso herani ne ji alufu to ikelo kum mar wuone ni nyithindgi. Yaye Nyasaye maduongʼ kendo maratego, ma nyinge en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego,
Thou shewest mercy unto thousands, and returnest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: O most mighty, great, and powerful, the Lord of hosts is thy name.
19 chenro magi dongo kendo timbegi lich. Wengeni oyawore ne yore duto mag ji; imiyo ngʼato mich kaluwore gi kite, kendo mowinjore gi timbene.
Great in counsel and incomprehensible in thought: whose eyes are open upon all the ways of the children of Adam, to render unto every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his devices.
20 Ne itimo ranyisi kod honni e piny Misri kendo isiko kodgi nyaka kawuono, ei Israel kendo e dier ji duto, kendo pod in ngʼat marahuma nyaka chil kawuono.
Who hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt even until this day, and in Israel, and amongst men, and hast made thee a name as at this day.
21 Ne igolo jogi Israel oa Misri gi ranyisi kod honni, gi lweti maratego kod badi moyarore kod bwok malich.
And hast brought forth thy people Israel, out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and a stretched out arm, and with great terror.
22 Ne imiyogi pinyni mane isesingone kweregi, piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich.
And best given them this land which thou didst swear to their fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey.
23 Negibiro kendo gikawo pinyno, to ne ok gilwori kata luwo chikeni; ne ok gitimo gik mane ichikogi mondo gitim. Omiyo ne ikelo kuomgi masichegi duto.
And they came in, and possessed it: but they obeyed not thy voice, and they walked not in thy law: and they did not any of those things that thou didst command them to do, and all these evils are come upon them.
24 “Ne kaka oger pidhe madongo but dala maduongʼ mondo gimonje kendo gikawe. Nikech ligangla, kech kod masiche, dala maduongʼ nochiwne jo-Babulon ma monje. Gima ne iwacho osetimore kaka koro inene.
Behold works are built up against the city to take it: and the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans, who fight against it, by the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken, is all come to pass, as thou thyself seest.
25 To kata obedo ni dala maduongʼ enochiw ne jo-Babulon, in, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, wachona ni, ‘Ngʼiew puodhoni gi fedha kendo ngʼiepone mondo obed gi joneno.’”
And sayest thou to me, O Lord God: Buy a field for money, and take witnesses, whereas the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans?
26 Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia:
And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:
27 “An Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach ogendini duto. Bende nitiere gima tekna?
Behold I am the Lord the God of all flesh: shall any thing be hard for me?
28 Emomiyo, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Achiegni chiwo dala maduongʼni ne jo-Babulon kendo ne Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon, ma biro monje kendo kawe.
Therefore thus saith the Lord: Behold I will deliver this city into the hands of the Chaldeans, and into the hands of the king of Babylon, and they shall take it.
29 Jo-Babulon mamonjo dala maduongʼni nodonji kendo ginimok kuome mach; giniwangʼe pep, kaachiel gi udi kamane ji owangʼoe iya kuom wangʼo ubani ewi tedni ne Baal kendo kuom chiwo misango miolo piny ne nyiseche manono.
And the Chaldeans that fight against this city, shall come and set it on fire, and burn it, with the houses upon whose roofs they offered sacrifice to Baal, and poured out drink offerings to strange gods, to provoke me to wrath.
30 “Jo-Israel gi jo-Juda pok otimo gimoro makmana timbe mamono e nyim wangʼa chakre tin-gi; adiera, jo-Israel pok otimo gimoro makmana chwanya gi gik ma lwetgi oloso, Jehova Nyasaye wacho.
For the children of Israel, and the children of Juda, have continually done evil in my eyes from their youth: the children of Israel who even till now provoke me with the work of their hands, saith the Lord.
31 Kochakore odiechiengʼ mane ogere nyaka sani, dala maduongʼni osemedo wangʼo iya kendo miya mirima ma chuna ni nyaka agole e nyim wangʼa.
For this city hath been to me a provocation and indignation from the day that they built it, until this day, in which it shall be taken out of my sight.
32 Jo-Israel gi jo-Juda osechwanya gi timbegi duto mamono magisetimo, gin ruodhi mag-gi kod jotelo, jodolo kod jonabi mag-gi, joma chwo mag Juda kod Jerusalem.
Because of all the evil of the children of Israel, and of the children of Juda, which they have done, provoking me to wrath, they and their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets, the men of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
33 Negilokona ngʼegi ma ok wengegi; kata obedo ni apuonjogi kendo amedo puonjogi, ne ok ginyal chiko itgi kata luwo puonjna.
And they have turned their backs to me, and not their faces: when I taught them early in the morning, and instructed them, and they would not hearken to receive instruction.
34 Negiketo nyisechegi manono e ot ma Nyinga nitiere kendo ginjawe.
And they have set their idols in the house, in which my name is called upon, to defile it.
35 Negigero kuonde motingʼore gi malo ne Baal e Holo mar Ben Hinom mondo gitim misango gi yawuotgi kod nyigi ne Molek, kata kamano ne ok amiyogi chik mar timo kamano, kata mano ne onge e pacha niginyalo timo gima mono kamano kendo gimi Juda tim richo.
And they have built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Ennom, to consecrate their sons and their daughters to Moloch: which I commanded them not, neither entered it into my heart, that they should do this abomination, and cause Juda to sin.
36 “Iwuoyo kuom dala maduongʼni ni, ‘Gi ligangla, kech kod masiche enochiwe ne ruodh Babulon.’ To ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach Israel, wacho:
And now, therefore, thus saith the Lord the God of Israel to this city, whereof you say that it shall be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence:
37 Adiera anachokgi duto gia e pinje duto kamane ariembogie gi ich wangʼ kod mirimba mager; anadwog-gi kae kendo awegi gidag gi kwe.
Behold I will gather them together out of all the lands to which I have cast them out in my anger, and in my wrath, and in my great indignation: and I will bring them again into this place, and will cause them to dwell securely.
38 Ginibed joga, kendo anabed Nyasachgi.
And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
39 Anami gibed gi chuny achiel kod tim achiel, mondo omi giluora manokel negiber kod nyithindgi manobi bangʼ-gi.
And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me all days: and that it may be well with them, and with their children after them.
40 Analos singruok manyaka chiengʼ kodgi: Ok anawe timonegi maber, kendo anamigi giluora, mondo omi kik gilokre giweya.
And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, and will not cease to do them good: and I will give my fear in their heart, that they may not revolt from me.
41 Anabed gi mor kuom timonegi maber kendo adiera anaketgi e pinyni gi chunya duto kod parona duto.
And I will rejoice over them, when I shall do them good: and I will plant them in this land in truth, with my whole heart, and with all my soul.
42 “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Kaka asekelo masiche malich kama ne jogi, omiyo koro anamigi mwandu mane asingonegi.
For thus saith the Lord: As I have brought upon this people all this great evil: so will I bring upon them all the good that I now speak to them.
43 Ka puothe mangʼeny osengʼiew e pinyni ma uwacho ni, ‘En kama ninono, maonge ji kata le, nimar osechiwe ne jo-Babulon.’
And fields shall be purchased in this land: whereof you say that it is desolate, because there remaineth neither man nor beast, and it is given into the hands of the Chaldeans.
44 Puothe nongʼiew gi fedha, kendo barupe lowo nogoye sei kendo nogosingo kendo nobedgi joneno e gwengʼ Benjamin, e mier molworo Jerusalem, e mier mag Juda kendo e mier manie piny mantiere got matin, mar tiend gode ma yo podho chiengʼ kendo e Negev, nikech anadwog-gi ka gia e twech, Jehova Nyasaye wacho.”
Fields shall be bought for money, and deeds shall be written, and sealed, and witnesses shall be taken, in the land of Benjamin, and round about Jerusalem, in the cities of Juda, and in the cities on the mountains, and in the cities of the plains, and in the cities that are towards the south: for I will bring their captivity, saith the Lord.
