< Jeremiah 33 >

1 While Jeremiah was still confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the LORD came to him a second time:
Kane pod Jeremia oketi e agola kamane irite, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirone mar ariyo ni:
2 “Thus says the LORD who made the earth, the LORD who formed it and established it, the LORD is His name:
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho, en ema nochweyo piny, Jehova Nyasaye mane olose kendo oketo mise mare, Jehova Nyasaye e nyinge:
3 Call to Me, and I will answer and show you great and unsearchable things you do not know.
‘Bi ira, kendo anaduoki, kendo ananyisi gik madongo ma ok ingʼeyo.’
4 For this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says about the houses of this city and the palaces of the kings of Judah that have been torn down for defense against the siege ramps and the sword:
Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach Israel, wacho kuom ute manie dala maduongʼni kod kuonde dak mar ruodh Juda ma osemuki mondo tigo kaka pidhe kod ligangla
5 The Chaldeans are coming to fight and to fill those places with the corpses of the men I will strike down in My anger and in My wrath. I have hidden My face from this city because of all its wickedness.
kuom kedo gi jo-Babulon: ‘Ginipongʼ-gi gi ringre joma otho mabiro nego gi ich wangʼ mara kod mirimba. Anapand wangʼa ne dala maduongʼni nikech timbegi duto mamono.
6 Nevertheless, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal its people and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.
“‘Kata kamano, anamigi ngima kendo chang; anachang joga kendo anami gibed gi mor kuom kwe mathoth kod rit mogundho.
7 I will restore Judah and Israel from captivity and will rebuild them as in former times.
Anaduog Juda kod Israel koa e twech kendo analosgi gibed kaka ne gin chon.
8 And I will cleanse them from all the iniquity they have committed against Me, and will forgive all their sins of rebellion against Me.
Anapwodhgi kuom richo magisetimona kendo anawenegi richogi duto mag ngʼanyona.
9 So this city will bring Me renown, joy, praise, and glory before all the nations of the earth, who will hear of all the good I do for it. They will tremble in awe because of all the goodness and prosperity that I will provide for it.
Eka dala maduongʼni nomi abed gihuma, ilo, pak kod luor e nyim ogendini duto manie piny mawinjo gik moko duto mabeyo masetimone; kendo ginibed gi luoro mi ginitetni kuom gweth mogundho kod kwe masechiwone.’
10 This is what the LORD says: In this place you say is a wasteland without man or beast, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem that are deserted—inhabited by neither man nor beast—there will be heard again
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Uwuoyo kuom dala maduongʼni niya, “Osedongʼ nono chuth, maonge ji kata jamni modakie.” Kata obedo ni mier mag Juda kod yore mag Jerusalem odongʼ nono kamano, maonge ji kata jamni modakie, to ubiro chako winjo,
11 the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of the bride and bridegroom, and the voices of those bringing thank offerings into the house of the LORD, saying: ‘Give thanks to the LORD of Hosts, for the LORD is good; His loving devotion endures forever.’ For I will restore the land from captivity as in former times, says the LORD.
mor gi ilo kuondego, dwond miaha kod wuon kisera, kod dwond jogo makelo chiwo mar goyo erokamano ne od Jehova Nyasaye. Negiwacho niya, “‘“Goneuru Jehova Nyasaye Maratego erokamano, nimar Jehova Nyasaye ber; herane osiko nyaka chiengʼ.” Nimar anaduog gweth ne piny mane gin-go chon,’ Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
12 This is what the LORD of Hosts says: In this desolate place, without man or beast, and in all its cities, there will once more be pastures for shepherds to rest their flocks.
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho: ‘Ka eri, mamono kendo maonge ji kata le, tiende ni e dalane duto nobedi kar kwath ma jokwath kwayoe rombegi.
13 In the cities of the hill country, the foothills, and the Negev, in the land of Benjamin and the cities surrounding Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks will again pass under the hands of the one who counts them, says the LORD.
E dala manie piny gode, mago mantie e tie gode man yo podho chiengʼ kod mago man Negev, mantiere e gwenge mag Benjamin, e mier molworo Jerusalem kod dala mag Juda, rombe nokal kendo e lwet ngʼatno ma kwanogi,’ Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
14 Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will fulfill the gracious promise that I have spoken to the house of Israel and the house of Judah.
“‘Ndalo biro ma abiro chopo singruokna mar ngʼwono mane aloso gi od Israel kod gi od Juda,’ Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
15 In those days and at that time I will cause to sprout for David a righteous Branch, and He will administer justice and righteousness in the land.
“‘E ndalogo kendo e kindeno anami Bad Yath makare owuog e koth Daudi; enotim gima ratiro kendo nikare e piny.
16 In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell securely, and this is the name by which it will be called: The LORD Our Righteousness.
E ndalogo Juda noresi kendo Jerusalem nodag gi kwe. Ma e nying ma ibiro luongego: Jehova Nyasaye mamiyo wabedo jo-ratiro.’
17 For this is what the LORD says: David will never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel,
Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Daudi ok nobed maonge gi ngʼato manobedi e kom duongʼ mar od Israel,
18 nor will the priests who are Levites ever fail to have a man before Me to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to present sacrifices.”
kata jodolo, ma jo-Lawi, bende ok nobed maonge gi ngʼato machungʼ e nyima seche duto mar chiwo misengini miwangʼo pep, ka giwangʼo misengini mag cham kendo chiwo misengini.’”
19 And the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia:
20 “This is what the LORD says: If you can break My covenant with the day and My covenant with the night, so that day and night cease to occupy their appointed time,
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Ka inyalo ketho singruokna modiechiengʼ kod singruokna motieno, mondo omi odiechiengʼ kod otieno kik bi e sechegi mowinjore,
21 then My covenant may also be broken with David My servant and with My ministers the Levites who are priests, so that David will not have a son to reign on his throne.
bangʼe singruokna gi Daudi jatichna kod singruokna gi jo-Lawi ma gin jodolo ma yalo e nyima inyalo kethi to Daudi ok nobed gi nyakware manobed gi loch e kom duongʼ mare.
22 As the hosts of heaven cannot be counted and as the sand on the seashore cannot be measured, so too will I multiply the descendants of My servant David and the Levites who minister before Me.”
Anami nyikwa Daudi jatichna kod jo-Lawi ma yalo e nyima bed mangʼeny mokalo akwana ka sulwe manie kor polo kendo ma ok nyal pim ka kwoyo manie dho nam.’”
23 Moreover, the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia:
24 “Have you not noticed what these people are saying: ‘The LORD has rejected the two families He had chosen’? So they despise My people and no longer regard them as a nation.
“Bende isefwenyo ni jogi wachoni ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye osekwedo dhoudi ariyo mane oyiero’? Omiyo gijaro joga kendo ok gikawo joga ka oganda achiel.
25 This is what the LORD says: If I have not established My covenant with the day and the night and the fixed order of heaven and earth,
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Ka dipo ni pod ok aketo singruokna godiechiengʼ gi otieno kod chike mogurore mar polo kod piny,
26 then I would also reject the descendants of Jacob and of My servant David, so as not to take from his descendants rulers over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will restore them from captivity and will have compassion on them.”
eka anakwed nyikwa Jakobo kod Daudi jatichna kendo ok anayier achiel kuom yawuote mondo obed jatelo ewi nyikwa Ibrahim, Isaka kod Jakobo. Nimar anaduognegi mwandugi mi anangʼwon-negi.’”
