Jeremia 46
1 Ma e wach Jehova Nyasaye mane obirone janabi Jeremia kuom ogendini:
The word of the LORD which came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Gentiles;
2 Kuom Misri: Ma e ote ne jolwenj Farao Neko ruodh Misri, mane oloo Karkemish e Aora mar Yufrate gi Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon e higa mar angʼwen mar Jehoyakim wuod Josia ruodh Juda:
Against Egypt, against the army of Pharaoh-necho king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah.
3 “Ikuru okumba magu, madongo kod matindo, kendo uwuog udhi e kedo!
Order ye the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle.
4 Gauru farese, idhuru farese! Kawuru kereu kurwako oguteu mag lweny! Piaguru tongeu, rwakuru okumba mau!
Harness the horses; and get up, ye horsemen, and stand forth with [your] helmets; furbish the spears, [and] put on the brigandines.
5 En angʼo ma aneno? Kihondko ogoyogi, kendo giringo ka gia kar lweny nikech thuondi mag-gi mag lweny oselo. Giringo ka luoro omakogi ma ok gingʼi ngʼegi, kendo gin-gi luoro malich koni gi koni,” Jehova Nyasaye wacho.
Wherefore have I seen them dismayed [and] turned away back? and their mighty ones are beaten down, and are fled apace, and look not back: [for] fear [was] round about, saith the LORD.
6 “Joma yot ok nyal ringo kata joma otegno ok nyal tony. E yo nyandwat but Aora Yufrate gichwanyore kendo gipodho.
Let not the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape; they shall stumble, and fall toward the north by the river Euphrates.
7 “Ma en ngʼa magingore ka aora Nael kendo mana ka aore ma pigegi bubni?
Who [is] this [that] cometh up as a flood, whose waters are moved as the rivers?
8 Misri bubni ka aora Nael kendo mana ka aore ma pigegi bubni. Owacho ni, ‘Abiro gingora kendo anapongʼ piny; anaketh mier madongo kod ji modakie.’
Egypt riseth up like a flood, and [his] waters are moved like the rivers; and he saith, I will go up, [and] will cover the earth; I will destroy the city and the inhabitants thereof.
9 Wuoguru, yaye farese! Yaye, un joriemb geche, riembgiuru matek! Dhiuru nyime, yaye un jolweny machwo moa Kush, gi Put motingʼo okumbini, kaachiel gi chwo Lidia maywayo atungʼ.
Come up, ye horses; and rage, ye chariots; and let the mighty men come forth; the Ethiopians and the Libyans, that handle the shield; and the Lydians, that handle [and] bend the bow.
10 To odiechiengno en mar Ruoth, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ma en odiechiengʼ, ma ochuloe kuor ni wasike. Ligangla noneki nyaka owinj ni orome, kendo nyaka otiek riyo mare gi remo. Nimar Ruoth, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, nochiw misango e piny mantie yo nyandwat but Aora Yufrate.
For this [is] the day of the Lord GOD of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for the Lord GOD of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.
11 “Dhiyo nyaka Gilead kendo imany yath, yaye Nyar Misri Mangili. To kata obedo ni imedo manyo yedhe to imenyo kayiem kendo ok inichangi.
Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou use many medicines; [for] thou shalt not be cured.
12 Ogendini nowinj wichkuot momaki; ywakni nopongʼ piny. Jolweny nochwanyre kuom moro ka moro; giduto ginipodhi kanyakla.”
The nations have heard of thy shame, and thy cry hath filled the land: for the mighty man hath stumbled against the mighty, [and] they are fallen both together.
13 Ma e ote mane Jehova Nyasaye owachone Jeremia janabi kuom biro Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon mondo omonj Misri:
The word that the LORD spake to Jeremiah the prophet, how Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon should come [and] smite the land of Egypt.
14 “Land wachni e piny Misri, kendo igo milome e Migdol; Memfis gi Tapanhes ni: ‘Kawuru kereu kendo ikreuru, nimar ligangla nego jogo molwori.’
Declare ye in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Noph and in Tahpanhes: say ye, Stand fast, and prepare thee; for the sword shall devour round about thee.
15 En angʼo momiyo jolweny magu opie piny? Ok ginyal chungʼ, nimar Jehova Nyasaye nolwargi piny.
Why are thy valiant [men] swept away? they stood not, because the LORD did drive them.
16 Ginichwanyre moluwore oluwore; giniluowre kuom jowetegi. Giniwachi ni, ‘Aa malo, wadog ir jowa wawegi; kendo e pinywa owuon, mabor gi ligangla mar joma thiro ji.’
He made many to fall, yea, one fell upon another: and they said, Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our nativity, from the oppressing sword.
17 E kanyono giniwach ni, ‘Farao ruodh Misri en mana jakoko matek, nikech thuolo mane en-go nobaye.’”
They did cry there, Pharaoh king of Egypt [is but] a noise; he hath passed the time appointed.
18 Ruoth wacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon, ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ngʼato achiel nobi machalo gi Tabor e dier gode, kata ka Got Karmel mantie but nam.
[As] I live, saith the King, whose name [is] the LORD of hosts, Surely as Tabor [is] among the mountains, and as Carmel by the sea, [so] shall he come.
19 Pang gigi mar dhiyoe twech, un joma odak Misri, nimar Memfis nowe gunda, kendo tieke chuth maonge ngʼama nodagie.”
O thou daughter dwelling in Egypt, furnish thyself to go into captivity: for Noph shall be waste and desolate without an inhabitant.
20 “Misri en nyaroya maber neno, to kalabugo birone koa yo nyandwat.
Egypt [is like] a very fair heifer, [but] destruction cometh; it cometh out of the north.
21 Jolweny mondiki chal gi nyiroye machwe. Gin bende ginilokre kendo giring kanyakla, ok giniriti, nimar odiechiengʼ mar masira biro kuomgi, kinde margi mar kum.
Also her hired men [are] in the midst of her like fatted bullocks; for they also are turned back, [and] are fled away together: they did not stand, because the day of their calamity was come upon them, [and] the time of their visitation.
22 Misri nokudhi ka thuol maringo ka jasigu masudo machiegni gi teko; giniked kode gi ledhi, mana ka chwo matongʼo yiende.”
The voice thereof shall go like a serpent; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.
23 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Ginibet bungu mare, kata obedo ni oyugno kamano. Gingʼeny moloyo dede, ok nyal kwan-gi.
They shall cut down her forest, saith the LORD, though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the grasshoppers, and [are] innumerable.
24 Nyar Misri nomi wichkuot, kendo nochiwe ne jogo moa yo nyandwat.”
The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded; she shall be delivered into the hand of the people of the north.
25 Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho niya, “Achiegni kelo kum kuom Amon ma nyasach Thebes, kuom Farao, kuom Misri gi nyisechene kod ruodhi mage, kod jogo mogeno kuom Farao.
The LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saith; Behold, I will punish the multitude of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods, and their kings; even Pharaoh, and [all] them that trust in him:
26 Anachiwgi ne jogo madwaro ngimagi, ne Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon gi jotende. To kata kamano ji nodhi nyime dak Misri kaka chon,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
And I will deliver them into the hand of those that seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old, saith the LORD.
27 “Kik iluor; yaye jatichna Jakobo; bende kik ibwogi, yaye Israel. Adiera abiro resi e piny mabor, kaachiel gi nyikwayi e piny mane otergie twech. Jakobo nodhi nyime ka nigi kwe gi dak maonge luoro, kendo onge ngʼama nobwoge.
But fear not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel: for, behold, I will save thee from afar off, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in rest and at ease, and none shall make [him] afraid.
28 Kik iluor, yaye Jakobo jatichna, nimar an kodi. Kata obedo ni atieko ogendini duto ma asekeyou e diergi, ok anatieku chuth. Anakumu to mana gi bura makare; ok anaweu ngangʼ ma ok akumou,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
Fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith the LORD: for I [am] with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee: but I will not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly unpunished.
