< Jeremiah 32 >
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord in the tenth year of Zedekiah, the king of Judah. The same is the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.
Ma e wach mane obirone Jeremia koa kuom Jehova Nyasaye e higa mar apar mar Zedekia ruodh Juda, ma ne en higa mar apar gaboro mar Nebukadneza.
2 It was then that the army of the king of Babylon besieged Jerusalem. And Jeremiah, the prophet, was confined to the atrium of the prison, which was in the house of the king of Judah.
Jolwenj ruodh Babulon ne monjo Jerusalem, kendo Jeremia janabi ne otwe e agola moriti e kar dak mar ruodh Juda.
3 For Zedekiah, the king of Judah, had confined him, saying: “Why do you make predictions, saying: ‘Thus says the Lord: Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will capture it?
Koro Zedekia ruodh Juda nokete e twech kanyo, kawacho niya, “Angʼo momiyo ikoro wach kamano? Ka iwacho ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye owacho: Achiegni chiwo dala maduongʼni ne ruodh Babulon, kendo enoloye.
4 And Zedekiah, the king of Judah, will not escape from the hand of the Chaldeans. Instead, he will be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon. And he will speak to him, mouth to mouth, and he will see him, eye to eye.
Zedekia ruodh Juda ok notony e lwet jo-Babulon to enochiwe ne ruodh Babulon, kendo enowuo kode wangʼ gi wangʼ mi enonene gi wengene owuon.
5 And he will lead Zedekiah to Babylon. And he will be there until I visit him, says the Lord. So then, if you contend against the Chaldeans, you will have no success.’”
Noter Zedekia Babulon, kama enosikie nyaka atimne gima adwaro, Jehova Nyasaye owacho. Ka ukedo gi jo-Babulon, to ok unulogi.’”
6 And Jeremiah said: “The word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Jeremia nowacho niya, “Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirona:
7 Behold, Hanamel, the son of Shallum, your cousin, will come to you, saying: ‘Buy for yourself my field, which is in Anathoth. For it is your right, as next of kin, to buy it.’
Hanamel wuod Shalum ma wuod owadgi wuonu nobi iri kendo nowach ni, ‘Ngʼiew lopa man Anathoth, nikech kaka watna machiegni koda en ratiro mari kendo tiji mondo ingʼiewe.’
8 And in accord with the word of the Lord, Hanamel, the son of my uncle, came to me, to the entrance of the prison, and he said to me: ‘Take possession of my field, which is in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin. For the right of inheritance is yours, and as the next of kin you may possess it.’ Then I understood that this was the word of the Lord.
“Eka, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosewacho, omera Hanamel nobiro ira e agola mar jarito kendo owacho ni, ‘Ngʼiew puotha man Anathoth kama Benjamin orito. Nikech en ratiro mari mondo ingʼiewe kendo ikawe, ngʼiewe ne in owuon.’ “Ne angʼeyo ni ma ne en wach Jehova Nyasaye;
9 And I bought the field, which is in Anathoth, from Hanamel, the son of my uncle. And I weighed out the money to him, seven small coins and ten pieces of silver.
omiyo ne angʼiewo puodho man Anathoth kuom wuod owadgi wuonwa Hanamel kendo apimone shekel apar gabiriyo mar fedha.
10 And I wrote it in a book and signed it, and I summoned witnesses. And I weighed out the silver on a scale.
Ne aketo seyi kendo agoyo amuri, ka joneno obedo, kendo apimo fedha e ratil.
11 And I received the signed deed of possession, and the stipulations, and the ratifications, with the exterior seals.
Ne akawo barup ngʼiepo, mano mogoye amuri momwon motingʼo singruok kod chike mag ngʼiewo lowo, to gi mano ma ok omuon
12 And I gave the deed of possession to Baruch, the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, in the sight of Hanamel, the son of my uncle, in the sight of the witnesses who had been recorded in the book of the purchase, and in the sight of all the Jews who were sitting in the atrium of the prison.
kendo ne achiwo baruwani ne Baruk wuod Neria, wuod Maseya, e nyim omera Hanamel kod joneno mane ogo seyi e barup winjruok kod jo-Yahudi mane obet e agola mar jarito.
13 And I instructed Baruch, in their sight, saying:
“E nyimgi ne amiyo Baruk puonjgi:
14 Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ‘Take these writings, this sealed deed of purchase, and this deed which is open, and place them in an earthen vessel, so that they will be preserved for many days.’
‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Kaw barupegi, mago momwon kod ma ok omuon, kendo iketgi e agulu mar lowo mondo omi gibed amingʼa.
15 For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: ‘Houses, and fields, and vineyards will be possessed still, in this land.’
Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Udi, puothe kod puothe mzabibu bende ibiro chak ngʼiew e pinyni.’
16 And after I had delivered the deed of possession to Baruch, the son of Neri, I prayed to the Lord, saying:
“Bangʼ kane asechiwo barup ngʼiepo ne Baruk wuod Neria, ne alamo Jehova Nyasaye kama:
17 Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God! Behold, you have made heaven and earth, by your great strength and by your outstretched arm. No word is difficult for you.
“Yaye, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, isechweyo polo gi piny kuom tekoni maduongʼ kod badi malach. Onge gima tekni.
18 You act with mercy a thousand-fold, but you repay the iniquity of the fathers into the sinews of their sons after them. The Lord of hosts is your name: most strong, great, and powerful!
Inyiso herani ne ji alufu to ikelo kum mar wuone ni nyithindgi. Yaye Nyasaye maduongʼ kendo maratego, ma nyinge en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego,
19 You are great in counsel and incomprehensible in thought. Your eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of Adam, so that you may repay each one according to his ways and according to the fruit of his intentions.
chenro magi dongo kendo timbegi lich. Wengeni oyawore ne yore duto mag ji; imiyo ngʼato mich kaluwore gi kite, kendo mowinjore gi timbene.
20 You caused signs and portents in the land of Egypt, and in Israel, and among men, even until this day. And you have made a name for yourself, just as in this day.
Ne itimo ranyisi kod honni e piny Misri kendo isiko kodgi nyaka kawuono, ei Israel kendo e dier ji duto, kendo pod in ngʼat marahuma nyaka chil kawuono.
21 And you have led your people Israel away from the land of Egypt, with signs and portents, and with a robust hand and an outstretched arm, and with great terror.
Ne igolo jogi Israel oa Misri gi ranyisi kod honni, gi lweti maratego kod badi moyarore kod bwok malich.
22 And you have given them this land, which you swore, to their fathers, that you would give to them, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Ne imiyogi pinyni mane isesingone kweregi, piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich.
23 And they entered it and possessed it. But they did not obey your voice, and they did not walk in your law. And they did not do all of the things that you commanded them to do. And so, all of these evils have happened to them.
Negibiro kendo gikawo pinyno, to ne ok gilwori kata luwo chikeni; ne ok gitimo gik mane ichikogi mondo gitim. Omiyo ne ikelo kuomgi masichegi duto.
24 Behold, fortifications were built against the city, so as to capture it. And the city was given into the hands of the Chaldeans, who fight against it, before the face of the sword, and of famine, and of pestilence. And what you have spoken has occurred, just as you yourself discern.
“Ne kaka oger pidhe madongo but dala maduongʼ mondo gimonje kendo gikawe. Nikech ligangla, kech kod masiche, dala maduongʼ nochiwne jo-Babulon ma monje. Gima ne iwacho osetimore kaka koro inene.
25 So why, O Lord God, are you saying to me: ‘Buy a field with money, and summon witnesses,’ while the city is being given into the hands of the Chaldeans?”
To kata obedo ni dala maduongʼ enochiw ne jo-Babulon, in, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, wachona ni, ‘Ngʼiew puodhoni gi fedha kendo ngʼiepone mondo obed gi joneno.’”
26 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying:
Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia:
27 “Behold, I am the Lord God; I am above all flesh. Can any word be difficult for me?
“An Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach ogendini duto. Bende nitiere gima tekna?
28 Therefore, thus says the Lord: Behold, I will deliver this city into the hands of the Chaldeans, and into the hands of the king of Babylon, and they will capture it.
Emomiyo, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Achiegni chiwo dala maduongʼni ne jo-Babulon kendo ne Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon, ma biro monje kendo kawe.
29 And the Chaldeans fighting against this city will advance, and set fire to it, and burn it, along with the houses on whose roofs they were offering sacrifice to Baal and were pouring out libations to strange gods, so that they provoked me to wrath.
Jo-Babulon mamonjo dala maduongʼni nodonji kendo ginimok kuome mach; giniwangʼe pep, kaachiel gi udi kamane ji owangʼoe iya kuom wangʼo ubani ewi tedni ne Baal kendo kuom chiwo misango miolo piny ne nyiseche manono.
30 For the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah, from their youth, have continually done evil in my eyes. The sons of Israel, even until now, have been provoking me with the work of their hands, says the Lord.
“Jo-Israel gi jo-Juda pok otimo gimoro makmana timbe mamono e nyim wangʼa chakre tin-gi; adiera, jo-Israel pok otimo gimoro makmana chwanya gi gik ma lwetgi oloso, Jehova Nyasaye wacho.
31 For this city has been a cause of fury and indignation to me, from the day when they built it, until this day, in which it will be taken away from my sight,
Kochakore odiechiengʼ mane ogere nyaka sani, dala maduongʼni osemedo wangʼo iya kendo miya mirima ma chuna ni nyaka agole e nyim wangʼa.
32 because of all the wickedness of the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah, which they have done, provoking me to wrath, they and their kings, their leaders and their priests and their prophets, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Jo-Israel gi jo-Juda osechwanya gi timbegi duto mamono magisetimo, gin ruodhi mag-gi kod jotelo, jodolo kod jonabi mag-gi, joma chwo mag Juda kod Jerusalem.
33 And they have turned their backs to me, and not their faces. And though I taught them and instructed them, rising at first light, they were not willing to listen, so that they would receive discipline.
Negilokona ngʼegi ma ok wengegi; kata obedo ni apuonjogi kendo amedo puonjogi, ne ok ginyal chiko itgi kata luwo puonjna.
34 And they have placed their idols in the house where my name is invoked, so that they defiled it.
Negiketo nyisechegi manono e ot ma Nyinga nitiere kendo ginjawe.
35 And they have built the exalted places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, so that they may initiate their sons and their daughters into Molech, though I did not command, nor did it enter into my heart, that they should do this abomination, and so lead Judah into sin.
Negigero kuonde motingʼore gi malo ne Baal e Holo mar Ben Hinom mondo gitim misango gi yawuotgi kod nyigi ne Molek, kata kamano ne ok amiyogi chik mar timo kamano, kata mano ne onge e pacha niginyalo timo gima mono kamano kendo gimi Juda tim richo.
36 And now, because of these things, thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, to this city, about which you say that it will be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence:
“Iwuoyo kuom dala maduongʼni ni, ‘Gi ligangla, kech kod masiche enochiwe ne ruodh Babulon.’ To ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach Israel, wacho:
37 Behold, I will gather them together from all the lands to which I have cast them out in my fury, and in my wrath, and in my great indignation. And I will lead them back to this place, and I will cause them to live in confidence.
Adiera anachokgi duto gia e pinje duto kamane ariembogie gi ich wangʼ kod mirimba mager; anadwog-gi kae kendo awegi gidag gi kwe.
38 And they will be my people, and I will be their God.
Ginibed joga, kendo anabed Nyasachgi.
39 And I will give to them one heart and one way, so that they may fear me all their days, and so that it may be well with them, and with their sons after them.
Anami gibed gi chuny achiel kod tim achiel, mondo omi giluora manokel negiber kod nyithindgi manobi bangʼ-gi.
40 And I will form an everlasting covenant with them, and I will not cease to do good for them. And I will put my fear into their heart, so that they do not withdraw from me.
Analos singruok manyaka chiengʼ kodgi: Ok anawe timonegi maber, kendo anamigi giluora, mondo omi kik gilokre giweya.
41 And I will rejoice over them, while I do good for them. And I will plant them in this land, in truth, with my whole heart and with my whole soul.
Anabed gi mor kuom timonegi maber kendo adiera anaketgi e pinyni gi chunya duto kod parona duto.
42 For thus says the Lord: Just as I have led over this people all this great evil, so will I lead over them all the good that I am speaking to them now.
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Kaka asekelo masiche malich kama ne jogi, omiyo koro anamigi mwandu mane asingonegi.
43 And fields will be possessed in this land, about which you say that it is desolate because there remains neither man nor beast, and because it has been given into the hands of the Chaldeans.
Ka puothe mangʼeny osengʼiew e pinyni ma uwacho ni, ‘En kama ninono, maonge ji kata le, nimar osechiwe ne jo-Babulon.’
44 Fields will be bought for money, and deeds will be written and signed, and witnesses will be summoned, in the land of Benjamin and all around Jerusalem, in the cities of Judah, and in the cities on the mountains, and in the cities on the plains, and in the cities that are toward the south. For I will convert their captivity, says the Lord.”
Puothe nongʼiew gi fedha, kendo barupe lowo nogoye sei kendo nogosingo kendo nobedgi joneno e gwengʼ Benjamin, e mier molworo Jerusalem, e mier mag Juda kendo e mier manie piny mantiere got matin, mar tiend gode ma yo podho chiengʼ kendo e Negev, nikech anadwog-gi ka gia e twech, Jehova Nyasaye wacho.”
