Jeremia 48
1 To kuom Moab: Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel wacho: “Mano kaka nobed malit ne Nebo, nimar enokethe. Kiriathaim nokuod wiye kendo enomake; kar pondogi nobed kama inyiero kendo nomuke.
Against Moab thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Woe to Nabo, for it is laid waste, and confounded: Cariathaim is taken: the strong city is confounded and hath trembled.
2 Pak mar Moab ok nobedi kendo; ji nochan kethruokne ei Heshbon kagiwacho kama: ‘Biuru, watiek pinyni.’ Yaye joma odak Madmen, un bende ligangla nolawu mulingʼ thii.
There is no more rejoicing in Moab over Hesebon: they have devised evil. Come, and let us cut it off from being a nation. Therefore shalt thou in silence hold thy peace, and the sword shall follow thee.
3 Winj ywak moa Horonaim, ywak mar duwruok maduongʼ gi kethruok.
A voice of crying from Oronaim: waste, and great destruction.
4 Moab nokethi; nyithinde matindo noywagre.
Moab is destroyed: proclaim a cry for her little ones.
5 Giidho ka giluwo yo madhi Luhith, gi ywak malit ka gidhi; e yo maridore kadhi Horonaim kendo ywak malit mar kethruok winjore.
For by the ascent of Luith shall the mourner go up with weeping: for in the descent of Oronaim the enemies have heard a howling of destruction.
6 Ringuru! Ringuru ukony ngimau; muchal gi bungu manie thim!
Flee, save your lives: and be as heath in the wilderness.
7 Nikech ugeno kuom timbeu kod mwandu mau, un bende nomaku, kendo Kemosh noter e twech, kanyakla gi jodolo mage kod jotelo mage.
For because thou hast trusted in thy bulwarks, and in thy treasures, thou also shalt be taken: and Chamos shall go into captivity, his priests, and his princes together.
8 Jaketh gik moko nobi e dala ka dala kendo onge dala ma notony. Holo noum kendo got mar mesa nomuki, nikech Jehova Nyasaye osewacho.
And the spoiler shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape: and the valleys shall perish, and the plains shall be destroyed, for the Lord hath spoken:
9 Ket chumbi kuom Moab, nimar enotieke; miechgi nodongʼ gunda, maonge ngʼama nodagi eigi.
Give a flower to Moab, for in its flower it shall go out: and the cities thereof shall be desolate, and uninhabited.
10 “Okwongʼ ngʼat mayom yom e tich Jehova Nyasaye! Okwongʼ ngʼat ma okano liganglane ma ok ochwerogo remo!
Cursed be he that doth the work of the Lord deceitfully: and cursed be he that withholdeth his sword from blood.
11 “Moab oseyweyo chakre tin-ne, ka divai mowe mos e aguche, ma ok ool koa ei agulu achiel kiloko machielo kendo pod ok odhi e twech. Omiyo ndhathe pod nikare, kendo tik mare ok olokore.”
Moab hath been fruitful from his youth, and hath rested upon his lees: and hath not been poured out from vessel to vessel, nor hath gone into captivity: therefore his taste hath remained in him, and his scent is not changed.
12 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Kinde biro, ma anaor ji manopuke oko, kendo gini ole oko; giniwe agulni mage nono kendo toyo agulni mage.
Therefore behold the days come, saith the Lord, and I will send him men that shall order and overturn his bottles, and they shall cast him down, and shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles one against another.
13 Eka Moab wiye nokuodi gi Kemosh, mana kaka od Israel wiye nokuot, kane gin-gi geno kuom Bethel.
And Moab shall be ashamed of Chamos, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel, in which they trusted.
14 “Ere kaka inyalo wacho ni, ‘Wan jokedo, ji mathuondi maroteke e lweny’?”
How do you say: We are valiant, and stout men in battle?
15 Ruoth, ma nyinge Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Moab nokethi kendo mier mage nomonji; yawuote mabeyo noter e kar nek.
Moab is laid waste, and they have cast down her cities: and her choice young men are gone down to the slaughter: saith the king, whose name is the Lord of hosts.
16 Podho mar Moab osechopone; masichene nobi mapiyo.
The destruction of Moab is near to come: the calamity thereof shall come on exceeding swiftly.
17 Ywageuru, un jogo duto modak machiegni kode, un jogo duto mongʼeyo humbe; wachuru ni, ‘Mano kaka otur odunga mar loch maratego, mano kaka otur ludh duongʼ!’
Comfort him, all you that are round about him, and all you that know his name, say: How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod?
18 “Auru malo e duongʼu ulor piny kendo ubedi e lowo motwo, yaye jodak mar Nyar Dibon, nimar ngʼama oketho Moab nobi mondo oked kodu, kendo otiek miechu madongo mochiel motegno gohinga.
Come down from thy glory, and sit in thirst, O dwelling of the daughter of Dibon: because the spoiler of Moab is come up to thee, he hath destroyed thy bulwarks.
19 Chunguru e bath yo kendo ungʼi, un joma odak Aroer. Penj dichwo maringo kod dhako maringo, ni, Angʼo mosetimore?
Stand in the way, and look out, O habitation of Aroer: inquire of him that fleeth: and say to him that hath escaped: What Is done?
20 Okuod wi Moab, nimar ongʼinje matindo tindo. Dengi kendo iywag matek! Land e Arnon ni Moab okethi.
Moab is confounded, because he is overthrown: howl ye, and cry, tell ye it in Amen, that Moab is wasted.
21 Ngʼado bura osebiro e got mar mesa kuom Holon, Jaza kod Mefath,
And judgment is come upon the plain country: upon Helon, and upon Jasa, and upon Mephaath.
22 kuom Dibon, Nebo kod Beth Diblathaim,
And upon Dibon, and upon Nabo, and upon the house of Deblathaim,
23 kuom Kiriathaim, Beth Gamul kod Beth Mion,
And upon Cariathaim, and upon Bethgamul, and upon Bethmaon,
24 kuom Kerioth gi Bozra, kuom mier duto mag Moab, man mabor kod mago man machiegni.
And upon Carioth, and upon Bosra: and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
25 Tung Moab ongʼad oko; bade otur,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, saith the Lord.
26 “Kete omer, nimar osetamore winjo Jehova Nyasaye. We Moab odwanyre e ngʼokne; we obed gima ijaro.
Make him drunk, because he lifted up himself against the Lord: and Moab shall dash his hand in his own vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
27 Donge Israel ema ne ijaro? Bende nomake e dier jokwoge, ma itengʼone wiyi gi achaya sa moro amora miwuoyo kuome?
For Israel hath been a derision unto thee: as though thou hadst found him amongst thieves: for thy words therefore, which thou hast spoken against him, thou shalt be led away captive.
28 Jwangʼuru miechu kendo udagi e kind lwendni, un joma odak Moab. Chaluru ka akuch odugla maloso ode e dho rogo.
Leave the cities, and dwell in the rock, you that dwell in Moab: and be ye like the dove that maketh her nest in the mouth of the hole in the highest place.
29 “Wasewinjo sunga mar Moab, sungane mokadhore gi miriambo, sunga mare gi jendeke mare kod ngʼayi mar chunye.”
We have heard the pride of Moab, he is exceeding proud: his haughtiness, and his arrogancy, and his pride, and the loftiness of his heart.
30 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Angʼeyo mirimbe to oonge tiende, kendo ngʼayi mage ok nyal gimoro.
I know, saith the Lord, his boasting, and that the strength thereof is not according to it, neither hath it endeavoured to do according as it was able.
31 Emomiyo aywak kadengo kuom Moab, nimar kuom Moab duto aywak, aywago jo-Kir Hareseth.
Therefore will I lament for Moab, and I will cry out to all Moab, for the men of the brick wall that mourn.
32 Aywagou, kaka Jazer ywak, yaye mzabibu mag Sibma. Bedeni kar machopo e nam; negichopo nyaka e nam mar Jazer. Jaketh gik moko osepodho e olembegi mochiek kod olemo mar mzabibu.
O vineyard of Sabama, I will weep for thee, with the mourning of Jazer: thy branches are gone over the sea, they are come even to the sea of Jazer: the robber hath rushed in upon thy harvest and thy vintage.
33 Ilo gi mor orumo e puoth olembe kod puothe mag Moab. Asechungo chwer mar divai koa e kuonde mibiyogie; onge ngʼama nyonogi gi koko mar ilo. Kata obedo ni nitiere koko, ok gin koko mar ilo.
Joy and gladness is taken away from Carmel, and from the land of Moab, and I have taken away the wine out of the presses: the treader of the grapes shall not sing the accustomed cheerful tune.
34 “Dwond ywak mag-gi winjore koa Heshbon nyaka Eleale gi Jahaz, koa Zoar nyaka chop Horonaim gi Eglath Shelishiya, nimar kata pige mag Nimrim bende osetwo.
From the cry of Hesebon even to Eleale, and to Jasa, they have uttered their voice: from Segor to Oronaim, as a heifer of three years old: the waters also of Nemrim shall be very bad.
35 E Moab anatiek jogo matimo misengini e kuonde motingʼore gi malo, kendo ma wangʼo ubani ne nyisechegi,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
And I will take away from Moab, saith the Lord, him that offereth in the high places, and that sacrificeth to his gods.
36 “Omiyo chunya ywagorene Moab ka asili; oywagore ka asili ne jo-Kir Hareseth. Mwandu mane giyudo oserumo.
Therefore my heart shall sound for Moab like pipes: and my heart a sound like pipes for the men of the brick wall: because he hath done more than he could, therefore they have perished.
37 Wich ka wich oliel kendo yie tik ka yie tik ongʼad oko; lwedo ka lwedo otongʼ oko kendo nungo ka nungo oum gi law ywak.
For every head shall be bald, and every beard shall be shaven: all hands shall be tied together, and upon every back there shall be haircloth.
38 Ewi tat udi duto man Moab kendo e laru mar galamoro onge gimoro makmana ywak, nimar aseketho Moab ka agulu motore maonge ngʼama dwaro,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
Upon all the housetops of Moab, and in the streets thereof general mourning: because I have broken Moab as an useless vessel, saith the Lord.
39 “Mano kaka otieke! Mano kaka gidengo! Mano kaka Moab loko ngʼeye kopondo nikech wichkuot! Moab osebedo gir ajara, gima bwogo ji duto man bute.”
How is it overthrown, and they have howled! How hath Moab bowed down the neck, and is confounded! And Moab shall be a derision, and an example to all round about him.
40 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Ne! Otenga fuyo kochiko piny, oyaro bwombene ewi Moab.
Thus saith the Lord: Behold he shall fly as an eagle, and shall stretch forth his wings to Moab.
41 Kerioth nomaki kendo kuondegi mag pondo nokaw. E odiechiengno chunje mag jolwenj Moab nochal gi chuny dhako mamuoch kayo.
Carioth is taken, and the strong holds are won: and the heart of the valiant men of Moab in that day shall be as the heart of a woman in labour.
42 Moab notieki kaka oganda nikech ne otamore winjo Jehova Nyasaye.
And Moab shall cease to be a people: because he hath gloried against the Lord.
43 Masira maduongʼ gi bur matut kod otegu ritou, yaye jo-Moab,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
Fear, and the pit, and the snare come upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, saith the Lord.
44 “Ngʼatno manotem tony nikech masira nolwar e bur matut, ngʼatno manotem kawuok ei bur matut, nomak gi obadho; nimar anakel magi kuom Moab e higa mar kum,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
He that shall flee from the fear, shall fall into the pit: and he that shall get up out of the pit, shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring upon Moab the year of their visitation, saith the Lord.
45 “E tipo mar Heshbon joma noringo odongʼ ka ok nyal, nimar mach osemoko liel Heshbon kendo ligek mach osewuok e dier Sihon; owangʼo lela wangʼ Moab, kod choke wich mag jongʼayigo!
They that fled from the snare stood in the shadow of Hesebon: but there came a fire out of Kesebon, and a flame out of the midst of Seen, and it shall devour part of Moab. and the crown of the head of the children of tumult.
46 Mano kaka inine malit, yaye Moab! Jo-Kemosh otieki; yawuoti oter e twech, kendo nyigi oket wasumbini.
Woe to thee, Moab, thou hast perished, O people of Chamos: for thy sons, and thy daughters are taken captives.
47 “Kata kamano anaduog gweth mag Moab e ndalo mabiro,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho. Ma e giko mar ngʼadone Moab bura.
And I will bring back the captivity of Moab in the last days, saith the Lord. Hitherto the judgments of Moab.
