< Jeremiah 28 >

1 And it came about in that year, when Zedekiah first became king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananiah, the son of Azzur the prophet, who came from Gibeon, said to Jeremiah in the house of the Lord, before the priests and all the people,
E dwe mar abich mar higa nogono, higa mar angʼwen, e chakruok mar loch mar Zedekia ruodh Juda, janabi Hanania wuod Azur, manoa Gibeon, nowachona e od Jehova Nyasaye e nyim jodolo kod ji duto ni:
2 These are the words of the Lord of armies, the God of Israel: By me the yoke of the king of Babylon has been broken.
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: ‘Anatur jok mar ruodh Babulon.
3 In the space of two years I will send back into this place all the vessels of the Lord's house which Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, took away from this place to Babylon:
Kuom higni ariyo abiro duogo kae gik moko duto mag od Jehova Nyasaye mane Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon ogolo kae kendo otero Babulon.
4 And I will let Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, come back to this place, with all the prisoners of Judah who went to Babylon, says the Lord: for I will have the yoke of the king of Babylon broken.
Bende anaduog kae Jehoyakin wuod Jehoyakim ruodh Juda kod jogo mamoko duto mane oter e twech koa Juda mane odhi Babulon,’ Jehova Nyasaye owacho, ‘nimar anatur jok mar ruodh Babulon.’”
5 Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah, before the priests and all the people who had come into the house of the Lord,
Eka janabi Jeremia nodwoko janabi Hanania e nyim jodolo kod ji duto mane ochungʼ e od Jehova Nyasaye.
6 The prophet Jeremiah said, So be it: may the Lord do so: may the Lord give effect to the words which you have said, and let the vessels of the Lord's house, and all the people who have been taken away, come back from Babylon to this place.
Nowacho niya, “Amin! Mad Jehova Nyasaye tim kamano! Mad Jehova Nyasaye chop singruok mar weche misekoro kuom kelo gige od Jehova Nyasaye kod joma notwe duto kae koa Babulon.
7 But still, give ear to this word which I am saying to you and to all the people:
Kata kamano, chik iti ne gima adwaro wachonu ka uwinjo kendo ka ji duto winjo:
8 The prophets, who were before me and before you, from early times gave word to a number of countries and great kingdoms about war and destruction and disease.
E kinde machon jonabi mane obiro moteloni kendo otelona nokoro kuom lweny, chandruok kod masira kuom pinje mangʼeny kod pinjeruodhi madongo.
9 The prophet whose words are of peace, when his words come true, will be seen to be a prophet whom the Lord has sent.
To janabi makoro kwe nowinji mana ka ngʼatno moor gi Jehova Nyasaye adier mana ka gima okoro otimore.”
10 Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from the neck of the prophet Jeremiah and it was broken by his hands.
Eka janabi Hanania nogolo jok e ngʼut janabi Jeremia kendo oture,
11 And before all the people Hananiah said, The Lord has said, Even so will I let the yoke of the king of Babylon be broken off the necks of all the nations in the space of two years. Then the prophet Jeremiah went away.
kendo nowacho e nyim ji duto niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Mana e yo machalre gima ema anagolie jok mar Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon mane oketo e ngʼut ogendini kapok higni ariyo orumo.’” Bangʼ wacho ma, janabi Jeremia nochungo modhi.
12 Then after the yoke had been broken off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah by Hananiah the prophet, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,
Mapiyo bangʼ ka janabi Hanania ne oseturo jok e ngʼut janabi Jeremia, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia:
13 Go and say to Hananiah, This is what the Lord has said: Yokes of wood have been broken by you, but in their place I will make yokes of iron.
“Dhiyo kendo inyis Hanania, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Iseturo jok mar bao, to e kar mano enoketni jok mar chuma.
14 For the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: I have put a yoke of iron on the necks of all these nations, making them servants to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon; and they are to be his servants: and in addition I have given him the beasts of the field.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Anaket jok mar chuma e ngʼut ogendinigi mondo gitine Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon, kendo ginitine. Kendo anamiye teko ewi le mag bungu.’”
15 Then the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet, Give ear, now, Hananiah; the Lord has not sent you; but you are making this people put their faith in what is false.
Eka janabi Jeremia nowachone janabi Hanania, “Winji Hanania! Jehova Nyasaye pok oori, to isehoyo ogandagi mondo ogen kuom miriambo.
16 For this reason the Lord has said, See, I will send you away from off the face of the earth: this year death will overtake you, because you have said words against the Lord.
Emomiyo, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Achiegni goli e pinyni. Mana e higani idhi tho, nikech iseyalo ngʼanyo ne Jehova Nyasaye.’”
17 So death came to Hananiah the prophet the same year, in the seventh month.
E dwe mar abiriyo mar higa onogono, Hanania janabi notho.
