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 which came unto Jeremiah from Yahweh, in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, —the same, was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar;
2 Jolwenj ruodh Babulon ne monjo Jerusalem, kendo Jeremia janabi ne otwe e agola moriti e kar dak mar ruodh Juda.
and, then, the forces of the king of Babylon were besieging Jerusalem, —and, Jeremiah the prophet, had been shut up in the guard-court, which was in the house of the king of Judah;
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.
whom Zedekiah king of Judah, had shut up, saying, —Why art thou prophesying, saying, —Thus, saith Yahweh, Behold me! giving up this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall capture 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, Zedekiah king of Judah! shall not be delivered out of the hand of the Chaldeans, —for he shall be wholly given up, into the hand of the king of Babylon, and shall speak—the mouth of the one to the mouth of the other, and the eyes of the one into the eyes of the other, shall look;
5 Noter Zedekia Babulon, kama enosikie nyaka atimne gima adwaro, Jehova Nyasaye owacho. Ka ukedo gi jo-Babulon, to ok unulogi.’”
and into Babylon, shall he lead Zedekiah and, there, shall he remain, until I visit him, Declareth Yahweh, —though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper?
6 Jeremia nowacho niya, “Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona:
And Jeremiah said, —The word of Yahweh came unto 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.’
Lo! Hanameel son of Shallum thine uncle, hath come unto thee saying, —Buy thee my field that is in Anathoth, for, thine, is the right of redemption to buy it.
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;
So Hanameel son of mine uncle, came unto me, according to the word of Yahweh into the guard-court, and said unto me, Buy, I pray thee my field that is in Anathoth which is in the land of Benjamin, for, thine, is the right of inheritance, and, thine, the redemption, —buy it for thyself. So I knew, that the word of Yahweh, it was.
9 omiyo ne angʼiewo puodho man Anathoth kuom wuod owadgi wuonwa Hanamel kendo apimone shekel apar gabiriyo mar fedha.
And I bought the field from Hanameel son of mine uncle that was in Anathoth, —and weighed him the silver, seventeen shekels, was the silver;
10 Ne aketo seyi kendo agoyo amuri, ka joneno obedo, kendo apimo fedha e ratil.
and I wrote in the scroll and sealed it, and took in attestation witnesses, —and weighed the silver 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
Then took I the scroll of purchase, both that which was sealed—the title and the conditions—and that which was open;
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 gave the scroll of purchase unto Baruch son of Neriah son of Mahseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine uncle[’s son], and in the sight of the witnesses who subscribed the scroll of purchase, —in the sight of all the Jews who were sitting in the guard-court.
13 “E nyimgi ne amiyo Baruk puonjgi:
Then charged I Baruch in their sight 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 Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, Take thou these scrolls, this scroll of purchase even that which is sealed, and this scroll that is open, and put them in an earthen vessel, —that they may remain 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 Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel: Again, shall houses and fields and vineyards, be bought, in this land.
16 “Bangʼ kane asechiwo barup ngʼiepo ne Baruk wuod Neria, ne alamo Jehova Nyasaye kama:
Then prayed I unto Yahweh, —after I had delivered the scroll of purchase unto Baruch son of Neriah, saying: —
17 “Yaye, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, isechweyo polo gi piny kuom tekoni maduongʼ kod badi malach. Onge gima tekni.
Alas! My Lord, Yahweh! Lo! thou thyself, didst make the heavens, and the earth, by thy great might, and by thine outstretched arm, —There is nothing, too wonderful for 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,
Executing lovingkindness unto thousands, But recompensing the iniquity of fathers, into the bosom of their children, after them, Thou GOD, the great the mighty, Yahweh of hosts, is his 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 mighty in deed, —Whose eyes are open on all the ways of the sons of men, to give unto every one, According to his ways, and According to the fruit of his doings:
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 didst set signs and wonders, in the land of Egypt, unto this day, and in Israel and among mankind, —And didst make for thyself 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 didst bring forth thy people Israel out of the land of, Egypt, With signs and with wonders, and With a strong hand, and With an outstretched arm, and With great terror;
22 Ne imiyogi pinyni mane isesingone kweregi, piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich.
And didst give unto them this land, which thou hadst sworn to their fathers to give unto 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 took possession of it But hearkened not unto thy voice Nor in thy law, did they walk, Nought of what thou hadst commanded them to do, did they do, —And so thou hast caused to befall them all this calamity.
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.
Lo! the earthworks! they have entered the city, to capture it, And the city, hath been given into the hand of the Chaldeans, who are fighting against it, because of the sword and the famine and the pestilence, —And so what thou didst speak, hath come to pass, And there thou art looking on!
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.’”
Yet, thou thyself, saidst unto me, O My Lord, Yahweh, Buy thee the field for silver And take in attestation, witnesses, —Whereas, the city, hath been given into the hand of the Chaldeans!
26 Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia:
Then came the word of Yahweh, unto Jeremiah, saying: —
27 “An Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach ogendini duto. Bende nitiere gima tekna?
Lo! I, am Yahweh, God of all flesh, —For me, is any thing too wonderful?
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 Yahweh, —Behold me! giving this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and he shall capture 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, who are fighting against this city, Shall enter, and Shall set this city on fire, and Shall consume it, —With the houses on whose roofs they burned incense to Baal and poured out drink-offerings to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger;
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 sons of Israel and the sons of Judah have been nothing but doers of wickedness in my sight from the days of their youth, —For the sons of Israel have been doing nothing but provoke me to anger by the workmanship of their hands, Declareth Yahweh;
31 Kochakore odiechiengʼ mane ogere nyaka sani, dala maduongʼni osemedo wangʼo iya kendo miya mirima ma chuna ni nyaka agole e nyim wangʼa.
For According to mine anger, and According to mine indignation, hath been to me this city, from the day when they built it even unto this day, —that I should pull it down from before my face:
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 wickedness of the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger, they, their kings their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, 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.
Thus have they turned unto me the back, and not the face, —Though I instructed them, betimes, instructing them, Yet have they not been hearkening, to receive correction;
34 Negiketo nyisechegi manono e ot ma Nyinga nitiere kendo ginjawe.
But have set their abominations in the house on which my name hath been called, 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 have built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of Ben-hinnom, To cause their sons and their daughters to pass through unto Molech, Which I commanded them not Neither came it up on my heart, That they should do this horrible thing, —Causing, Judah, 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:
Now therefore, because of this, —Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, —Concerning this city, whereof ye are saying, It hath been delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon, by 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 me! gathering them out of all the lands whither I have driven them—In mine anger and In mine indignation and In great vexation, —And I will cause them to return into this place, And will make them dwell, securely;
38 Ginibed joga, kendo anabed Nyasachgi.
And they shall become my people, —And, I, will become 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 revere me, all the days, —For the good of them and of 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 solemnise to them an age-abiding covenant, That I will not turn away from following them, to do them good, —But the reverence of myself, will I put in their heart, so that they shall not turn away 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, to do them good, —And will plant them in this land in truth, with all my 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 Yahweh, Like as I have brought upon this people all this great calamity, So, am I bringing upon them all the good that I am speaking concerning them.
43 Ka puothe mangʼeny osengʼiew e pinyni ma uwacho ni, ‘En kama ninono, maonge ji kata le, nimar osechiwe ne jo-Babulon.’
Therefore shall fields be bought in this land, —whereof ye are saying, It is, a desolation, Without man or beast, It hath been given into the hand 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—for silver, shall men buy, And write in scrolls And seal them, And take in attestation, witnesses, In the land of Benjamin, and In the places round about Jerusalem, and In the cities of Judah, and In the cities of the hill country, and In the cities of the lowland and In the cities of the South, —For I will cause them of their captivity to return Declareth Yahweh.
