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?”
Concerning the Ammonites, thus saith the LORD; Hath Israel no sons? hath he no heir? why [then] doth their king inherit Gad, and his people dwell 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 behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard in Rabbah of the Ammonites; and it shall be a desolate heap, and her daughters shall be burned with fire: then shall Israel be heir to them that were his heirs, saith 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.
Howl, O Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste: cry, ye daughters of Rabbah, gird you with sackcloth; lament, and run to and fro by the hedges; for their king shall go into captivity, [and] his priests and his princes together.
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?
Why gloriest thou in the valleys, thy flowing valley, O backsliding daughter? that trusted in her treasures, [saying], Who shall come to 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.
Behold, I will bring a fear upon thee, saith the Lord GOD of hosts, from all those that are about thee; and ye shall be driven out every man right forth; and none shall gather up him that wandereth.
6 “Kata kamano bangʼe, anaduog mwandu jo-Amon,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
And afterward I will bring again the captivity of the children of Ammon, saith the LORD.
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?
Concerning Edom, thus saith the LORD of hosts; [Is] wisdom no more in Teman? hath counsel perished from the prudent? hath their wisdom vanished?
8 Lokreuru kendo uringi, ponduru e rogo mopandore, un joma odak Dedan, nimar anakel masira ne Esau e kinde ma anakume.
Flee ye, turn back, dwell deep, O inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, the time [that] I will visit him.
9 Ka jopon olemb mzabibu obiro iru, donge digiwe olemb mzabibu matin? Ka jokwoge obiro gotieno, donge gibiro kwalo mwandu magu kaka ginyalo?
If grape-gatherers come to thee, would they not leave [some] gleaning grapes? if thieves by night, they will destroy till they have enough.
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.
But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he shall not be able to hide himself: his seed is laid waste, and his brethren, and his neighbors, and he [is] not.
11 Weuru kiye mau; anares ngimagi. Mondu duto ma chwogi otho, bende nyalo keto geno mag-gi kuoma.”
Leave thy fatherless children, I will preserve [them] alive; and let thy widows 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 saith the LORD; Behold, they whose judgment [was] not to drink of the cup have assuredly drank; and [art] thou he [that] shall altogether go unpunished? thou shalt not go unpunished, but thou shalt surely drink [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 have sworn by myself, saith the LORD, that Bozrah shall become a desolation, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all her cities shall be perpetual wastes.
14 Asewinjo wach koa kuom Jehova Nyasaye kama: Jaote oseor mondo owach ne ogendini niya, “Chokreuru mondo umonje! Chungʼuru malo wadhi e kedo!”
I have heard a rumor from the LORD, and an embassador is sent to the heathen, [saying], Assemble, and come against her, and rise up to the battle.
15 “Koro abiro miyo udok matin e kind ogendini, kendo joma ijaro e dier ji.
For lo, I will make thee 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 terribleness hath deceived thee, [and] the pride of thy heart, O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, that holdest the hight of the hill: though thou shouldst make thy nest as high as the eagle, I will bring thee down from thence, saith the LORD.
17 “Edom nobed gima bwogo ji; jogo duto makalo bute nohum nono, kendo gininyiere ka gineno adhondene duto.”
Also Edom shall be a desolation: every one that goeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss at all her plagues.
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 overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighboring [cities], saith the LORD, no man shall abide there, neither shall a son of man dwell 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?”
Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of Jordan against the habitation of the strong: but I will suddenly make him run away from her: and who [is] a chosen [man], [that] I may appoint over her? for who [is] like me? and who will appoint me the time? and who [is] that shepherd that will stand 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 hear the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Edom; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: surely the least of the flock shall draw 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 moved at the noise of their fall, at the cry the noise of it was 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 up and fly as the eagle, and spread his wings over Bozrah: and at that day shall the heart of the mighty men of Edom be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
23 Kuom Damaski: “Hamath gi Arpad luoro omako, nimar giwinjo wach marach, chunygi omoko, kendo nigi chandruok ka nam mogingore.
Concerning Damascus. Hamath is confounded, and Arpad: for they have heard evil tidings: they are faint-hearted; [there is] sorrow on the sea; it cannot be quiet.
24 Damaski osebedo maonge teko, osea gi ngʼwech, kendo achiedh-nade osemake; lit gi rem osemake, kaka rem mar dhako mamuoch kayo.
Damascus hath become feeble, [and] turneth herself to flee, and fear hath seized on [her]: anguish and sorrows have taken her, as a woman in travail.
25 Angʼo momiyo ok osejwangʼ dala maduongʼ mongʼere; dala mamor godo?
How is the city of praise not left, the city of my joy!
26 Adiera, joge matindo nopodh e yore; jolweny mage duto nolingʼ thi odiechiengno,” Jehova Nyasaye Maratego owacho.
Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets, and all the men of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the LORD of hosts.
27 “Anawangʼ ohingini mag Damaski; notiek kuonde mochiel motegno mag Ben-Hadad.”
And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall consume the palaces of Ben-hadad.
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.
Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon shall smite, thus saith the LORD; Arise ye, go up to Kedar, and lay waste 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: they shall take to themselves their curtains, and all their vessels, and their camels; and they shall cry to them, Fear [is] on every 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 far off, dwell deep, O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith the LORD; for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath conceived a purpose against you.
31 “Chunguru kendo umonj pinyni momewo, modak kodhil,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho, “piny maonge dhorangeye kata lodi; joge odak kendgi.
Arise, go up to the wealthy nation, that dwelleth without care, saith the LORD, which have neither gates nor bars, [which] dwell 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 booty, and the multitude of their cattle a spoil: and I will scatter into all winds them [that are] in the utmost corners; and I will bring their calamity from all sides of it, saith 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] a desolation for ever: there shall no man abide there, nor [any] son of man dwell in it.
34 Ma e wach Jehova Nyasaye mane obirone janabi Jeremia kuom Elam, e ndalo chakruok mar loch Zedekia ruodh Juda:
The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
35 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, wacho: “Ne, anatur atung Elam, girgi maduongʼ mar tekogi.
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
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 upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them towards all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts 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 dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life: and I will bring evil upon them, [even] my fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them:
38 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Anaket koma mar duongʼ ei Elam, kendo atiek ruodhe kod jotende.”
And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence the king and the princes, saith the LORD.
39 “Kata kamano anaduog mwandu Elam e ndalo ma biro,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
But it shall come to pass in the latter days, [that] I will bring again the captivity of Elam, saith the LORD.
