Jeremia 44
1 Wachni nobiro ne Jeremia kuom jo-Yahudi modak Misri Mamwalo man Migdol, Tapanhes gi Memfis kod Misri Mamalo:
The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews that dwelt in the land of Egypt, that dwelt at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the country of Pathros, saying:
2 “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Ne ineno masira malich mane akelo kuom Jerusalem kod kuom dala duto mag Juda. Kawuono gidongʼ gunda kendo okethgi,
'Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Ye have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Judah; and, behold, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwelleth therein;
3 nikech timbe maricho magisetimo. Negimiya mirima ma iya owangʼ kuom wangʼo ubani kendo lamo nyiseche manono ma gin kata un kata wuoneu ne ok ongʼeyo.
because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke Me, in that they went to offer, and to serve other gods, whom they knew not, neither they, nor ye, nor your fathers.
4 Ne asiko ka aoro jotichna ma jonabi, mane giwacho ni, ‘Kik utim gima mononi ma ok ahero!’
Howbeit I sent unto you all My servants the prophets, sending them betimes and often, saying: Oh, do not this abominable thing that I hate.
5 To ne ok gichiko itgi kata winja; ne ok gilokore gia e timbegi mamono kata weyo wangʼo ubani ne nyiseche manono.
But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to forbear offering unto other gods.
6 Emomiyo, mirimba mager nool oko; mine olandore kobebni e dala mag Juda kod yore mag Jerusalem kendo moketogi gibed gundini mokethore kaka gin kawuono.
Wherefore My fury and Mine anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and desolate, as at this day.
7 “Koro ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Angʼo momiyo ukelo masira malich kuomu ka uweyo chwo gi mon, rawere gi nyithindo mayom, makoro onge joma otony koa kuom jo-Juda?
Therefore now thus saith the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel: Wherefore commit ye this great evil against your own souls, to cut off from you man and woman, infant and suckling, out of the midst of Judah, to leave you none remaining;
8 Angʼo momiyo uwangʼo iya gi gik ma lwetu oloso, uwangʼo ubani ne nyiseche manono ei Misri, kama osebiroe mondo udagie? Unutiekru kendu uwegi ka uloso ne un uwegi gigo mag kwongʼ gi ajara e dier ogendini duto manie piny.
in that ye provoke Me with the works of your hands, offering unto other gods in the land of Egypt, whither ye are gone to sojourn; that ye may be cut off, and that ye may be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?
9 Dibed ni wiu osewil gi timbe maricho mane wuoneu otimo kod mago mane otim gi ruodhi kaachiel gi monde ruodhi mag Juda to gi richo mane utimo kaachiel gi mondeu e piny Juda kod e yore mag Jerusalem?
Have ye forgotten the wicked deeds of your fathers, and the wicked deeds of the kings of Judah, and the wicked deeds of their wives, and your own wicked deeds, and the wicked deeds of your wives, which they committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
10 Nyaka chil kawuono pod ok gibolore kata chiwo luor, bende pod ok girito chikena gi buchena mane amiyou kaachiel gi wuoneu.
They are not humbled even unto this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in My law, nor in My statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.
11 “Emomiyo, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Aramo chuth ni nyaka akel masira kuomu kendo atiek Juda duto.
Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will set My face against you for evil, even to cut off all Judah.
12 Anakaw jo-Juda modongʼ mane oramo ni nyaka dhi Misri mondo gidak kanyo. Giduto ginirum Misri; noneg-gi gi ligangla kata ginitho nikech kech. Kochakore ngʼat matin nyaka ngʼat maduongʼ, noneg-gi gi ligangla kata gi kech. Ginibed gir kwongʼ kod bwok, joma ongʼadnegi bura kendo mijaro.
And I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they shall all be consumed; in the land of Egypt shall they fall; they shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine; they shall die, from the least even unto the greatest, by the sword and by the famine; and they shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.
13 Anakum joma odak Misri gi ligangla, kech kod masira, mana kaka nakumo Jerusalem.
For I will punish them that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;
14 Onge jo-Juda mane odongʼ mane odhi dak Misri ma notony kata kwo ma ok odwogo e piny Juda, ma gigombo duogoe kendo dakie; onge manoduogi makmana ji moko manok manoringo lweny.”
so that none of the remnant of Judah, that are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall escape or remain, that they should return into the land of Judah, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there; for none shall return save such as shall escape.'
15 Eka chwo duto mane ongʼeyo ni mondegi wangʼo ubani ne nyiseche manono, kaachiel gi mon duto mane ni kanyo, ne gin oganda mangʼeny, kod ji duto manodak e piny Misri Mamwalo kod Mamalo, nowachone Jeremia niya,
Then all the men who knew that their wives offered unto other gods, and all the women that stood by, a great assembly, even all the people that dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying:
16 “Ok wanawinj wach miwachonwa e nying Jehova Nyasaye!
'As for the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, we will not hearken unto thee.
17 Adier wanatim gik moko duto mane wawacho ni wanatim: Wanawangʼ ubani ne Ruoth ma Dhako mar Polo kendo wanamiye misango miolo piny mana kaka wan kod wuonewa, ruodhiwa kod jotendwa notimo e dala mag Juda kod yore mag Jerusalem. E kindeno ne wan gi chiemo mathoth kendo ne wamewo kendo ne onge hinyruok moro amora kuomwa.
But we will certainly perform every word that is gone forth out of our mouth, to offer unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink-offerings unto her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then had we plenty of food, and were well, and saw no evil.
18 To nyaka aa kinde mane waweyo wangʼo ubani ne Ruoth ma Dhako mar Polo kendo chiwone misango miolo piny, wasebedo maonge gimoro amora kendo ligangla gi kech osenegowa.”
But since we let off to offer to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink-offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.
19 Mon-go nomedo wacho niya, “Kane wawangʼo ubani ne Ruoth ma Dhako mar Polo kendo chiwone misango miolo piny, donge chwowa nongʼeyo nine waloso kek machalo gi kite kendo wachiwone misango miolo piny?”
And is it we that offer to the queen of heaven, and pour out drink-offerings unto her? did we make her cakes in her image, and pour out drink-offerings unto her, without our husbands?'
20 Eka Jeremia nowachone ji duto, chwo kaachiel gi mon, mane dwoke niya,
Then Jeremiah said unto all the people, to the men, and to the women, even to all the people that had given him that answer, saying:
21 “Uparo ni Jehova Nyasaye ne ok ongʼeyo wach misengini ma un gi kwereu, kod ruodhiu gi jotendu kaachiel gi jopinyu duto ne otimo e miech Juda kendo e yore mag Jerusalem? Koso uparo ni wiye osewil kodgi.
'The offering that ye offered in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye and your fathers, your kings and your princes, and the people of the land, did not the LORD remember them, and came it not into His mind?
22 Ka Jehova Nyasaye ne ok nyal dhi nyime gineno timbeu mamono kod gigo magath mane utimo, pinyu nokwongʼ kendo odongʼ gunda maonge gima odakie, mana kaka en kawuono.
So that the LORD could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which ye have committed; therefore is your land become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day.
23 Nikech usewangʼo ubani kendo usetimo richo ne Jehova Nyasaye kendo pod ok uluore kata luwo chikene kata puonj mage kod dwaro mage, masirani osebiro kuomu, mana kaka unene sani.”
Because ye have offered, and because ye have sinned against the LORD, and have not hearkened to the voice of the LORD, nor walked in His law, nor in His statutes, nor in His testimonies; therefore this evil is happened unto you, as at this day.'
24 Eka Jeremia nowachone ji duto, kaachiel gi mon, “Winjuru wach Jehova Nyasaye, un jo-Juda duto modak Misri.
Moreover Jeremiah said unto all the people, and to all the women: 'Hear the word of the LORD, all Judah that are in the land of Egypt:
25 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Un gi mondu usenyiso gi timbeu gik mane usingoru ka uwacho ni, ‘Nyaka wachop singruok mane waketo mar wangʼo ubani kendo chiwo misango miolo piny ne Ruoth ma Dhako mar Polo.’ “Dhiuru nyime, kendo utim gima ne usingo! Rituru singruoku!
Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying: Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and with your hands have fulfilled it, saying: We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to offer to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink-offerings unto her; ye shall surely establish your vows, and surely perform your vows.
26 To winj wach Jehova Nyasaye, un jo-Yahudi duto modak Misri: ‘Akwongʼora gi nyinga maduongʼ,’ Jehova Nyasaye owacho, ‘ni onge ngʼato angʼata moa Juda modak Misri manochak oluong nyinga kata kwongʼore niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto.”
Therefore hear ye the word of the LORD, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by My great name, saith the LORD, that My name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt saying: As the Lord GOD liveth.
27 Angʼiyo kaka dakelnegi hinyruok, to ok kelonegi ber; nimar un jo-Yahudi man Misri nonegu gi ligangla kod kech nyaka tieku pep.
Behold, I watch over them for evil, and not for good; and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.
28 Jogo mane otonyne ligangla kendo odwogo e piny Juda koa Misri nobed manok. Eka jo-Juda duto mane odongʼ mane obiro dak Misri nongʼe ni en wach ngʼa matiyo, mara koso margi.
And they that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, few in number; and all the remnant of Judah, that are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose word shall stand, Mine, or theirs.
29 “‘Ma ema nobednu ranyisi ni anakumu kaeni, mondo omi ungʼe ni gima asechano timonu notimre.’
And this shall be the sign unto you, saith the LORD, that I will punish you in this place, that ye may know that My words shall surely stand against you for evil;
30 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Anachiw Farao Hofra ruodh Misri ne wasike madwaro ngimane, mana kaka ne achiwo Zedekia ruodh Juda ne Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon jasike mane dwaro ngimane.’”
thus saith the LORD: Behold, I will give Pharaoh Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his life.'
