< Jeremiah 26 >

1 At the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, this word came from the LORD:
E chakruok mar loch Jehoyakim wuod Josia ruodh Juda, wachni nobiro koa ir Jehova Nyasaye:
2 “This is what the LORD says: Stand in the courtyard of the house of the LORD and speak all the words I have commanded you to speak to all the cities of Judah who come to worship there. Do not omit a word.
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Chungi e laru mar od Jehova Nyasaye kendo iwuo gi ji duto manie dala mar Juda ma lemoga e od Jehova Nyasaye. Nyisgi gik moko duto manyisi; kik iwe kata wach achiel.
3 Perhaps they will listen and turn—each from his evil way of life—so that I may relent of the disaster I am planning to bring upon them because of the evil of their deeds.
Sa moro ginichik itgi kendo ngʼato ka ngʼato olokre owe yorene maricho. Eka analok pacha kendo ok anakel kuomgi masira mane achano nikech timbe maricho magisetimo.
4 And you are to tell them that this is what the LORD says: ‘If you do not listen to Me and walk in My law, which I have set before you,
Wachnegi ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Ka ok uwinja kendo uluwo chikena, ma aseketo e nyimu,
5 and if you do not listen to the words of My servants the prophets, whom I have sent you again and again even though you did not listen,
kendo ka ok uwinjo weche mag jotichna ma jonabi, maseoronu pile ka pile (kata kamano pod ok uwinjo),
6 then I will make this house like Shiloh, and I will make this city an object of cursing among all the nations of the earth.’”
bangʼe anami odni obed ka Shilo kendo dala maduongʼni ka gima okwongʼ e dier ogendini duto mag piny.’”
7 Now the priests and prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the LORD,
Jodolo, jonabi kod ji duto nowinjo Jeremia kawacho wechegi e od Jehova Nyasaye.
8 and as soon as he had finished telling all the people everything the LORD had commanded him to say, the priests and prophets and all the people seized him, shouting, “You must surely die!
To bangʼ ka Jeremia nosetieko nyiso ji duto gik moko duto mane Jehova Nyasaye ochike mondo owachi, jodolo, jonabi kod ji duto nomake kendo owachone niya, “Nyaka itho!
9 How dare you prophesy in the name of the LORD that this house will become like Shiloh and this city will be desolate and deserted!” And all the people assembled against Jeremiah in the house of the LORD.
Angʼo ma omiyo ikoro e nying Jehova Nyasaye ni odni biro chalo ka Shilo kendo ni dala maduongʼni nojwangʼ kendo nokethi maonge ngʼama nodagie?” Kendo ji duto nochokore kolworo Jeremia e od Jehova Nyasaye.
10 When the officials of Judah heard these things, they went up from the king’s palace to the house of the LORD and sat there at the entrance of the New Gate.
Ka jotend jo-Juda nowinjo wechegi, negia kar dak mar ruoth ma gidhi nyaka e od Jehova Nyasaye kendo negikawo keregi e kar donjo mar Dhorangach Manyien mar od Jehova Nyasaye.
11 Then the priests and prophets said to the officials and all the people, “This man is worthy of death, for he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your own ears!”
Eka jodolo kod jonabi nowachone jotelo kod ji duto niya, “Ngʼatni onego ngʼadne buch nek nikech nokoro kuom dala maduongʼni. Usewinje gi itu uwegi!”
12 But Jeremiah said to all the officials and all the people, “The LORD sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that you have heard.
Eka Jeremia nowachone jotelo duto kod ji duto niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ne oora mondo akor kuom odni kod dala maduongʼni gigo duto musewinjo.
13 So now, correct your ways and deeds, and obey the voice of the LORD your God, so that He might relent of the disaster He has pronounced against you.
Koro lokuru yoreu gi timbeu kendo uluor Nyasachu. Eka Jehova Nyasaye nolok pache kendo ok nokel masira kuomu mosechano timonu.
14 As for me, here I am in your hands; do to me what you think is good and right.
Anto an e lweti; timnauru gima uneno ka ber kendo nikare.
15 But know for certain that if you put me to death, you will bring innocent blood upon yourselves, upon this city, and upon its residents; for truly the LORD has sent me to speak all these words in your hearing.”
To ngʼeuru gadieri ni, ka unega, to unukel ketho kuom chwero remo maonge ketho kuomu uwegi kendo kuom dala maduongʼni gi jogo modak e iye, nimar adiera Jehova Nyasaye oseora iru mondo awachnu wechegi duto ka uwinjo gi itu.”
16 Then the officials and all the people told the priests and prophets, “This man is not worthy of death, for he has spoken to us in the name of the LORD our God!”
Eka jotelo duto kod ji duto nowachone jodolo gi jonabi niya, “Ngʼatni ok onego ngʼadne buch tho! Osewuoyonwa e nying Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa.”
17 Some of the elders of the land stood up and said to the whole assembly of the people,
Jodongo moko mag piny nosudo nyime e lela kendo owachone chokruok mangima mar ji ni,
18 “Micah the Moreshite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah and told all the people of Judah that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Zion will be plowed like a field, Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble, and the temple mount a wooded ridge.’
“Mika maa Moresheth nokoro e ndalo Hezekia ruodh Juda. Nonyiso jo-Juda duto ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho: “‘Sayun ibiro pur ka puodho, Jerusalem biro dongʼ gunda, got matin mogerie hekalu nobed ka bungu motwere moyugno.’
19 Did Hezekiah king of Judah or anyone else in Judah put him to death? Did Hezekiah not fear the LORD and seek His favor, and did not the LORD relent of the disaster He had pronounced against them? But we are about to bring great harm on ourselves!”
Bende Hezekia ruodh Juda kata ngʼato angʼata man Juda nonegi? Donge Hezekia noluoro Jehova Nyasaye kendo omanyo ngʼwono mare? Kendo donge Jehova Nyasaye noloko pache, mi omiyo ne ok okelo masira kuomgi? Wachiegni kelo masira malich kuomwa wawegi!”
20 Now there was another man prophesying in the name of the LORD, Uriah son of Shemaiah from Kiriath-jearim. He prophesied against this city and against this land the same things that Jeremiah did.
(Koro Uria wuod Shemaya moa Kiriath Jearim ne ngʼat machielo mane okoro e nying Jehova Nyasaye; nokoro mana gik machalre kuom dala maduongʼni kendo pinyni mana kaka Jeremia notimo.
21 King Jehoiakim and all his mighty men and officials heard his words, and the king sought to put him to death. But when Uriah found out about it, he fled in fear and went to Egypt.
Ka Ruoth Jehoyakim kod jotende duto nowinjo wechege, ruoth ne dwaro mondo onege. To Uria nowinjo ma kendo oringo ka luoro omake nyaka Misri.
22 Then King Jehoiakim sent men to Egypt: Elnathan son of Achbor along with some other men.
Ruoth Jehoyakim, kata kamano, nooro Elnathan wuod Akbor nyaka Misri, kaachiel gi chwo mamoko.
23 They brought Uriah out of Egypt and took him to King Jehoiakim, who had him put to the sword and his body thrown into the burial place of the common people.
Negigolo Uria Misri kendo gitere ne Ruoth Jehoyakim, mane omiyo onege gi ligangla kendo dende owiti e kar yiko mar ji ajiya.)
24 Nevertheless, Ahikam son of Shaphan supported Jeremiah, so he was not handed over to the people to be put to death.
Bende, Ahikam wuod Shafan noriwo Jeremia lwedo, kendo omiyo ne ok ochiwe e lwet jogo mondo onege.
