Jeremiah 19
1 Thus says the Lord: “Go, and take a potter’s earthen bottle from the elders of the people and from the elders of the priests.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Dhiyo kendo ingʼiew njage mar lowo kuom jachwe agulni. Dhi gi jodong ji moko kod jodolo
2 And go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is near the entrance to the earthen gate, and there you shall proclaim the words that I will speak to you.
kendo idhi e Holo mar Ben Hinom, mantiere machiegni gi kar donjo mar Dhoranga Potshad. Go milome kanyo mar weche manyisi,
3 And you shall say: Listen to the word of the Lord, O kings of Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem. Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will lead an affliction over this place, so much so that it will ring in the ears of all who hear about it.
kendo iwach ni, ‘Winjuru wach Jehova Nyasaye, yaye ruodhi mag Juda kod jo-Jerusalem. Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Winjuru! Anakel masira kae mano mi it ngʼato ka ngʼato mowinjo nosakni,
4 For they have abandoned me, and they have made this place foreign, and they have offered libations in it to foreign gods, whom neither they, nor their fathers, nor the kings of Judah have known. And they have filled this place with the blood of the innocent.
nimar gisejwangʼa mi giseketo ka obedo mar nyiseche mamoko, gisewangʼo misengini e iye ne nyiseche ma gin kata wuonegi kata ruodhi mag Juda ne ok ongʼeyo, kendo gisepongʼo kae gi remb joma onge ketho.
5 And they have built the exalted places of Baal, in order to burn their children with fire as a holocaust to Baal, something that I did not instruct or speak of, nor did it enter into my heart.
Gisegero kuonde motingʼore gi malo ne Baal mondo giwangʼ yawuotgi e mach kaka chiwo ne Baal, gimoro mane ok achiko kata tuomo, bende ne onge e pacha.
6 Because of this, behold, the days are approaching, says the Lord, when this place will no longer be called Topheth, or the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter.
Omiyo tangʼ, kinde biro, Jehova Nyasaye owacho, ma ji ok nochak oluong kae ni Tofeth kata Holo mar Ben Hinom, to noluonge ni Holo mar Nek.’
7 And I will scatter the counsel of Judah and of Jerusalem in this place. And I will overthrow them with the sword, in the sight of their enemies and by the hand of those who seek their lives. And I will give their carcasses to the birds of the air and to the beasts of the land as food.
“‘Ka eri ema nakethie chenro mag Juda kod Jerusalem. Anawe neg-gi gi ligangla e nyim wasikgi, e lwet jogo madwaro ngimagi, kendo anachiw ringregi kaka chiemo ne winy mafuyo e polo kod le manie piny.
8 And I will set this city amid stupor and hissing. Everyone who passes by it will be stupefied, and they will hiss over all its wounds.
Anaketh dala maduongʼni kendo mi obed gima ijaro; jogo duto makalo bute nohum nono kendo gininyiere ka gineno adhondene duto.
9 And I will feed them with the flesh of their sons and with the flesh of their daughters. And each one of them will eat the flesh of his friend during the blockade and the embargo by which their enemies, and those who seek their lives, will enclose them.
Anami gicham ringre yawuotgi kod nyigi, kendo ginichamre kendgi e kinde marach ma wasikgi ogengʼonigi ka dwaro ngimagi.’
10 And you shall crush the bottle in the sight of the men who will go with you.
“Bangʼe initoo njageno ka jok midhigo neno,
11 And you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord of hosts: In the same way, I will crush this people and this city, just as the potter’s vessel was crushed and cannot be made whole again. And they will be buried at Topheth, because there will be no other place for burial.
kendo iwachnegi, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho: Anaketh pinyni kod dala maduongʼni mana kaka aguch jachwecho itoyo mi ok nyal los kendo. Giniyik joma otho ei Tofeth ma thuolo nobed maonge.
12 So will I do to this place and to its inhabitants, says the Lord. And I will make this city to be like Topheth.
Ma e gima anatimne pinyni kod joma odak ka, Jehova Nyasaye owacho. Anami dala maduongʼni chal gi Tofeth.
13 And the houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah will be unclean, just like the place of Topheth: all the houses on whose roofs they sacrificed to all the armies of heaven and poured out libations to strange gods.”
Ute man Jerusalem kod mago mag ruodhi Juda nodwany mana machal gi ute man Tofeth, mane giwangʼoe ubani ewi tado mag udi ne gik mochwe mae kor polo kendo olo misango miolo piny ne nyiseche manono.’”
14 Then Jeremiah arrived from Topheth, where the Lord had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the atrium of the house of the Lord, and he said to all the people:
Bangʼe Jeremia noduogo koa Tofeth, kama Jehova Nyasaye noore mondo okore wach, kendo nochungʼ e agola mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye mi owachone ji duto ni,
15 “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will lead over this community, and over all its cities, all the evils that I have spoken against it. For they have hardened their necks, so that they would not heed my words.”
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: ‘Winjuru! Adhi kelone dala maduongʼni kod gwenge molwore masiche duto mane alando kuomgi, nikech ne tokgi tek ta kendo ne ok ginyal winjo wechena.’”
