Jeremias 14
1 AND THE WORD OF THE LORD CAME TO JEREMIAS CONCERNING THE DROUGHT.
Ma e wach Jehova Nyasaye mane omiyo Jeremia e wach oro:
2 Judea has mourned, and her gates are emptied, and are darkened upon the earth; and the cry of Jerusalem is gone up.
“Juda ywak, mieche madongo winjo lit; gidengo ne piny, kendo ywak winjore koa Jerusalem.
3 And her nobles have sent their little ones to the water: they came to the wells, and found no water: and brought back their vessels empty.
Joka ruoth oro jotichgi manyo pi; gidhi e sokni to ok giyud pi. Gidwogo gi agulni mag-gi ka ok otuome pi, ka giluor kendo gibuok, giumo wiyegi.
4 And the labours of the land failed, because there was no rain: the husbandmen were ashamed, they covered their heads.
Lo nigi okak nikech onge koth e piny; jopur luoro omako kendo giumo wiyegi.
5 And hinds calved in the field, and forsook [it], because there was no grass.
Kata mwanda manie puodho jwangʼo nyathine nikech onge lum.
6 The wild asses stood by the forests, and snuffed up the wind; their eyes failed, because there was no grass.
Punde mag bungu chungʼ ka kuonde motwo motingʼore gi malo, kendo gigamo yweyo ka ondiegi; wengegi ok nyal neno nimar onge kar kwath.”
7 Our sins have risen up against us: O Lord, do you for us for your own sake; for our sins are many before you; for we have sinned against you.
Kata obedo ni richowa nyisowa ni wan joketho, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, tim gimoro nikech nyingi. Wasebaro waweyo yoreni; kendo wasetimo richo e nyimi.
8 O Lord, [you are] the hope of Israel, and deliver [us] in time of troubles; why are you become as a sojourner upon the land, or as one born in the land, yet turning aside for a resting-place?
Yaye geno mar Israel, Jares mare e kinde mag thagruok, en angʼo momiyo ichalo wendo e piny, kaka jawuoth mobuoro otieno achiel?
9 Will you be as a man asleep, or as a [strong] man that can’t save? yet you are amongst us, O Lord, and your name is called upon us; forget us not.
Ere gima omiyo ichalo gi ngʼat mobuok, kata ka jalweny maonge gi teko ma dokonygo ngʼato? In e dierwa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, kendo iluongowa kod nyingi; kik ijwangʼwa!
10 Thus says the Lord to this people, They have loved to wander, and they have not spared, therefore God has not prospered them; now will he remember their iniquity.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho kuom jogi: “Gihero bayo alanda kendo tiendegi ok ywe. Kuom mano, Jehova Nyasaye ok orwakogi; omiyo koro obiro paro timbegi mamono, kendo okumgi kuom richogi.”
11 And the Lord said to me, Pray not for this people for [their] good:
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachona, “Kik ilam mondo jogi odhi maber.
12 for though they fast, I will not hear their supplication; and though they offer whole burnt offerings and sacrifices, I will take no pleasure in them: for I will consume them with sword, and with famine, and with pestilence.
Kata ka gitweyo chiemo; ok anawinj ywakgi; kata bed ni gichiwo misango miwangʼo pep kod chiwo mag cham, ok anarwakgi. To kata kamano ananeg-gi gi ligangla, kech kod dera.”
13 And I said, O [ever] living Lord! behold, their prophets prophesy, and say, You shall not see a sword, nor shall famine be amongst you; for I will give truth and peace on the land, and in this place.
To ne awacho niya, “Yaye, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, jonabi osebedo kanyisogi ni, ‘Ok unune ligangla kata kech bende ok nokau. Adiera, anamiu kwe mochwere kaeni.’”
14 Then the Lord said to me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, and I commanded them not, and I spoke not to them: for they prophesy to you false visions, and divinations, and auguries, and devices of their own heart.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachona, “Jonabigo koro miriambo e nyinga. Pok aorogi, kata walogi kata wuoyo kodgi. Ginyisou fweny manono, gikoro weche manono gilamo nyiseche manono kod pachgi giwegi morundore.
15 Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the prophets that prophesy lies in my name, and I sent them not, who say, Sword and famine shall not be upon this land; they shall die by a grievous death, and the prophets shall be consumed by famine.
Emomiyo, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho kuom jonabi makoro e nyinga: Ne ok aorogi, kata bed ni giwacho niya, ‘Onge ligangla kata kech manobi e pinyni.’ Jonabi gogo-go notiek gi ligangla kod kech.
16 And the people to whom they prophesy, they also shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem, because of the sword and famine; and there shall be none to bury them: their wives also, and their sons, and their daughters [shall die thus]; and I will pour out their wickedness upon them.
Kendo jogo ma gikorone nowit oko e yore mag Jerusalem nikech kech kod ligangla. Onge ngʼama noikgi kata mondegi, yawuotgi kata nyigi. Anaol kuomgi masiche mowinjore kodgi.
17 And you shall speak this word to them; Let your eyes shed tears day and night, and let them not cease: for the daughter of my people has been sorely bruised, and her plague is very grievous.
“Wachnegi wachni: “‘Mad wangʼa pongʼ gi pi wangʼ otieno gi odiechiengʼ ma ok rum; ne nyara mangili, joga, osewinjo lit mar adhola, gi hinyruok mapek.
18 If I go forth into the plain, then behold the slain by the sword! and if I enter into the city, then behold the distress of famine! for priest and prophet have gone to a land which they knew not.
Ka adhi e pinyno, aneno jogo monegi gi ligangla; ka adhi e dala maduongʼ, to aneno masiche ma kech okelo. Janabi kaachiel gi jadolo osedhi e piny ma ok gingʼeyo.’”
19 Hast you utterly rejected Juda? and has your soul departed from Sion? therefore has you struck us, and there is no healing for us? we waited for peace, but there was no prosperity; for a time of healing, and behold trouble!
Bende isekwedo Juda chuth? Dibed ni ichayo Sayun? Angʼo momiyo isehinyowa ma ok wanyal chango? Ne wageno kwe to onge ber mosebiro, kinde mar chang to nitie mana thagruok.
20 We know, O Lord, our sins, [and] the iniquities of our fathers: for we have sinned before you.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, wayie gi timbewa mamono kod ketho mag wuonewa; adiera wasetimoni richo.
21 Refrain for your name's sake, destroy not the throne of your glory: remember, break not your covenant with us.
Ne kuom nyingi kik ijarwa; kik ijwangʼ kom duongʼ mari malich. Par singruok mari kodwa kendo kik ikethe.
22 Is there any one amongst the idols of the Gentiles that can give rain? and will the sky yield his fulness [at their bidding]? Are not you he? we will even wait on you, O Lord: for you have made all these things.
Bende nyiseche manono maonge tich mar ogendini bende nyalo kelo koth? Bende boche kendgi kelo ngʼidho? Ooyo, en in, yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa. Emomiyo genowa ni kuomi, nimar in ema itimo magi duto.
