< Jeremia 49 >

1 Wach kuom jo-Amon: Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Onge yawuowi e Israel? Oonge gi jarit girkeni mage? To kare angʼo momiyo Molek osekawo mwandu Gad? Angʼo momiyo joge odak e dalane?”
Unto the children of Ammon thus saith the Lord, Hath Israel no sonnes? or hath he none heire? Why then hath their king possessed God? and his people dwelt in his cities?
2 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “To ndalo biro, ma anagoye koko mar lweny mondo oked gi Raba mar jo-Amon; enobed pith mar kethruok, kendo gwenge molworogi nowangʼ. Eka Israel noriemb jogo mane oriembogi,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
Therefore beholde the dayes come, sayeth the Lord, that I will cause a noyse of warre to be heard in Rabbah of the Ammonites, and it shall be a desolate heape, and her daughters shall be burnt with fire: then shall Israel possesse those that possessed him, sayeth the Lord.
3 “Dengi, yaye Heshbon, nimar Ai okethi! Ywaguru, yaye joma odak Raba! Rwakuru lepu mag ywak kendo uywagi; ringuru koni gi koni, e alwora mar dala, nimar Molek noter e twech, kaachiel gi jodolo mage kod jotelo mage.
Howle, O Heshbon, for Ai is wasted: crie ye daughters of Rabbah: girde you with sackecloth: mourne and runne to and from by the hedges: for their King shall goe into captiuitie; and his Priestes, and his princes likewise.
4 Angʼo momiyo usungoru kuom holo mau, sungruok kuom holo mau manyak? Yaye nyako ma ok ja-ratiro, igeno kuom mwandu magi kendo iwacho niya, Ngʼama biro monja?
Wherefore gloriest thou in the valleis? thy valley floweth away, O rebellious daughter: she trusted in her treasures, saying, Who shall come vnto me?
5 Anakel luoro kuomu koa kuom jogo duto man butu,” Ruoth, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ema owacho. “Un duto noriembu, kendo onge ngʼama nochok joma noringo moke.
Beholde, I will bring a feare vpon thee, sayth the Lord God of hostes, of all those that be about thee, and ye shalbe scattered euery man right foorth, and none shall gather him that fleeth.
6 “Kata kamano bangʼe, anaduog mwandu jo-Amon,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
And afterward I will bring againe the captiuitie of the children of Ammon.
7 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho kuom Edom: “Bende pod nitie rieko ei Teman? To puonj oselalne jorieko? To rieko mag-gi osetop?
To Edom thus sayeth the Lord of hostes: Is wisdome no more in Teman? is counsel perished from their children? is their wisdome vanished?
8 Lokreuru kendo uringi, ponduru e rogo mopandore, un joma odak Dedan, nimar anakel masira ne Esau e kinde ma anakume.
Flee, ye inhabitants of Dedan (they are turned backe, and haue consulted to dwell) for I haue brought the destruction of Esau vpon him, and the time of his visitation.
9 Ka jopon olemb mzabibu obiro iru, donge digiwe olemb mzabibu matin? Ka jokwoge obiro gotieno, donge gibiro kwalo mwandu magu kaka ginyalo?
If the grape gatherers come to thee, would they not leaue some grapes? if theeues come by night, they will destroy till they haue ynough.
10 To analony Esau duk; anael kuondege malingʼ-lingʼ, mondo omi kik opondi. Nyithinde, wedene gi jomodak bute nolal nono, kendo ok nochak obed chutho.
For I haue discouered Esau: I haue vncouered his secrets, and he shall not be able to hide himselfe: his seede is wasted, and his brethren and his neighbours, and there shall be none to say,
11 Weuru kiye mau; anares ngimagi. Mondu duto ma chwogi otho, bende nyalo keto geno mag-gi kuoma.”
Leaue thy fathers children, and I will preserue them aliue, and let thy widowes trust in me.
12 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Ka jogo ma ok owinjore omadh kikombe nyaka madhe, to angʼo momiyo ok anyal kumi? Ok initony ma ok okumi, to nyaka imadhe.”
For thus sayth the Lord, Beholde, they whose iudgement was not to drinke of the cuppe, haue assuredly drunken, and art thou he that shall escape free? thou shalt not goe free, but thou shalt surely drinke of it.
13 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon, ni Bozra nokethi kendo nobed gir bwogo ji, gir jaro kendo nobed gir kwongʼ, kendo mieche duto nokethi chuth.”
For I haue sworne by my selfe, sayeth the Lord, that Bozrah shall be waste, and for a reproche, and a desolation, and a curse, and all the cities thereof shall be perpetuall desolations.
14 Asewinjo wach koa kuom Jehova Nyasaye kama: Jaote oseor mondo owach ne ogendini niya, “Chokreuru mondo umonje! Chungʼuru malo wadhi e kedo!”
I haue heard a rumour from the Lord, and an ambassadour is sent vnto the heathen, saying, Gather you together, and come against her, and rise vp to the battell.
15 “Koro abiro miyo udok matin e kind ogendini, kendo joma ijaro e dier ji.
For loe, I will make thee but small among the heathen, and despised among men.
16 Luoro musemiyo ji kod sunga manie chunyu osewuondou, un jogo modak e kind lwendni, modak kuonde motingʼore gi malo mar got. Kata obedo ni ugero uteu mabor ka od otenga, koa kuno abiro dwokou piny,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
Thy feare, and ye pride of thine heart hath deceiued thee, thou that dwellest in the cleftes of the rocke, and keepest the height of ye hil: though thou shouldest make thy nest as hie as the eagle, I wil bring thee downe from thece, sayth the Lord.
17 “Edom nobed gima bwogo ji; jogo duto makalo bute nohum nono, kendo gininyiere ka gineno adhondene duto.”
Also Edom shall be desolate: euery one that goeth by it, shall be astonished, and shall hisse at all the plagues thereof,
18 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Mana kaka Sodom gi Gomora nokethi, kaachiel gi mier mokiewo kodgi, e kaka en bende nobedi maonge ngʼato angʼata modak kanyo kendo.
As in the ouerthrowe of Sodom, and of Gomorah, and the places thereof neere about, saieth the Lord: no man shall dwell there, neither shall the sonnes of men remaine in it.
19 “Ka sibuor mabiro koa e bungu moyugno mar Jordan nyaka kar kwath man-gi lum, anariemb Edom oa e pinye kadiemo wangʼ. En ngʼa mowal manyalo yiero ne ma? En ngʼa machalo koda kendo manyalo chungʼ koda? Koso jakwath mane manyalo chungʼ koda?”
Beholde, hee shall come vp like a lyon from the swelling of Iorden vnto the strong dwelling place: for I will make Israel to rest, euen I will make him to haste away from her, and who is a chosen man that I may appoynt against her? for who is like mee? and who will appoint me the time? and who is the shepheard that will stande before me?
20 Emomiyo, winj gima Jehova Nyasaye osechano timo ne Edom, gima oseramo ni nyaka otimne joma odak Teman: Nyithi rombe bende nokaw; enoketh chuth kuondegi mag kwath nikech gin.
Therefore heare the counsell of the Lord that hee hath deuised against Edom, and his purpose that hee hath conceiued against the inhabitants of Teman: surely the least of the flocke shall drawe them out: surely he shall make their habitations desolate with them.
21 Piny noyiengni kowinjo ni ologi; ywakgi nowinjre nyaka e Nam Makwar.
The earth is mooued at the noyse of their fall: the crie of their voice is heard in the red Sea.
22 Ne! Otenga nofu kochomo malo kendo piny koyaro bwombene ewi Bozra. E odiechiengno chunje jolweny mag Edom nochal gi chuny dhako mamuoch kayo.
Behold, he shall come vp, and flie as the Egle, and spreade his wings ouer Bozrah, and at that day shall the heart of the strong men of Edome be as the heart of a woman in trauaile.
23 Kuom Damaski: “Hamath gi Arpad luoro omako, nimar giwinjo wach marach, chunygi omoko, kendo nigi chandruok ka nam mogingore.
Vnto Damascus he sayeth, Hamath is confounded and Arpad, for they haue heard euill tidings, and they are faint hearted as one on the fearefull sea that can not rest.
24 Damaski osebedo maonge teko, osea gi ngʼwech, kendo achiedh-nade osemake; lit gi rem osemake, kaka rem mar dhako mamuoch kayo.
Damascus is discouraged, and turneth her selfe to flight and feare hath seased her: anguish and sorowes haue taken her as a woman in trauaile.
25 Angʼo momiyo ok osejwangʼ dala maduongʼ mongʼere; dala mamor godo?
How is the glorious citie not reserued, the citie of my ioy?
26 Adiera, joge matindo nopodh e yore; jolweny mage duto nolingʼ thi odiechiengno,” Jehova Nyasaye Maratego owacho.
Therefore her yong men shall fall in her streetes, and all her men of warre shall be cut off in that day, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
27 “Anawangʼ ohingini mag Damaski; notiek kuonde mochiel motegno mag Ben-Hadad.”
And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, which shall cosume the palaces of Benhadad.
28 Kuom Kedar gi pinyruodhi mag Hazor, mane Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon omonjo: Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Chungʼuru malo, kendo umonj Keda, mi utiek joma aa yo wuok chiengʼ.
Vnto Kedar, and to the kingdomes of Hazor, which Nebuchad-nezzar, king of Babel shall smite, thus sayeth the Lord, Arise, and goe vp vnto Kedar, and destroy the men of the East.
29 Hembegi gi jambgi nokaw; kar dak margi nowal oko, kaachiel gi mwandugi duto kod ngamia. Ji nogonegi koko ni, ‘Masira maduongʼ koni gi koni!’”
Their tents and their flocks shall they take away: yea, they shall take to themselues their curtaines and all their vessels, and their camels, and they shall crie vnto them, Feare is on euery side.
30 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Ringuru piyo uayi! Daguru e rogo matut, un joma odak Hazor. Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon nigi paro marach kuomu; osechano timonu marach.
Flee, get you farre off (they haue consulted to dwell) O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith the Lord: for Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel hath taken counsell against you, and hath deuised a purpose against you.
31 “Chunguru kendo umonj pinyni momewo, modak kodhil,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho, “piny maonge dhorangeye kata lodi; joge odak kendgi.
Arise, and get you vp vnto the welthy nation that dwelleth without care, saith the Lord, which haue neither gates nor barres, but dwel alone.
32 Ngamia mag-gi noyaki kendo kweth mag dhogi nope. Anake joge mantie kuma bor e tunge piny kendo anakelnegi masira koa koni gi koni,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
And their camels shall be a bootie, and the multitude of their cattel a spoile, and I will scatter them into all windes, and to the vtmost corners, and I will bring their destruction from al the sides thereof, sayeth the Lord.
33 “Hazor nobed thim mar ondiegi, kama ojwangʼ nyaka chiengʼ. Onge ngʼama nodag kanyo; onge ngʼama nodag e iye.”
And Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons, and desolation for euer: there shall no man dwell there, nor the sonnes of men remaine in it.
34 Ma e wach Jehova Nyasaye mane obirone janabi Jeremia kuom Elam, e ndalo chakruok mar loch Zedekia ruodh Juda:
The woordes of the Lord that came to Ieremiah the Prophet, concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reigne of Zedekiah King of Iudah, saying,
35 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, wacho: “Ne, anatur atung Elam, girgi maduongʼ mar tekogi.
Thus sayeth the Lord of hostes, Beholde, I will breake the bowe of Elam, euen the chiefe of their strength.
36 Anamonj Elam gi yembe angʼwen moa e tunge angʼwen mar polo; anakegi e yembe angʼwen-go kendo onge piny ma jo-Elam momaki ok nodhiye.
And vpon Elam I will bring the foure windes from the foure quarters of heauen, and will scatter them towardes all these windes, and there shall bee no nation, whither the fugitiues of Elam shall not come.
37 Anami Elam ongʼengʼ e nyim wasike, e nyim jogo madwaro tieko ngimagi; anakel masiche kuomgi, ma en mirimba mager,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho. “Analawgi gi ligangla manyaka atiekgi.”
For I will cause Elam to be afraied before their enemies, and before them that seeke their liues, and will bring vpon them a plague, euen the indignation of my wrath, saieth the Lord, and I wil sende the sworde after them till I haue consumed them.
38 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Anaket koma mar duongʼ ei Elam, kendo atiek ruodhe kod jotende.”
And I wil set my throne in Elam, and I wil destroy both the King and the princes from thence, saith the Lord:
39 “Kata kamano anaduog mwandu Elam e ndalo ma biro,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
but in the latter daies I wil bring againe the captiuitie of Elam, sayeth the Lord.
