Lamentations 2
1 How hath the Lord in his anger covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud! He hath cast down from the heavens unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger.
Mano kaka Ruoth Nyasaye osekumo Nyar Sayun gi mirimbe motwere ka rumbi! Duongʼ mar Israel ma yande otundo nyaka e polo, osewito piny, bende kuom mirimbe ok oseparo ni en raten mar tiende.
2 The Lord hath swallowed up all the dwellings of Jacob, and hath not spared; he hath thrown down in his wrath the strongholds of the daughter of Judah: he hath brought [them] down to the ground; he hath profaned the kingdom and the princes thereof.
Ruoth Nyasaye oseketho mier duto mag Jakobo ka ok odewo; nikech mirimbe osemuko kuonde mochiel motegno mag Nyar Juda. Nokuodo wi jopinyno gi jotende mi odwoko lochgi chien.
3 He hath cut off in fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he hath withdrawn his right hand from before the enemy; and he burned up Jacob like a flaming fire, devouring round about.
Osetieko teko mar jo-Israel gi mirimbe mager, kendo osejwangʼogi e lwet wasikgi. Osewengʼo ka Jakobo kaka mach mager makakni ma wangʼo gik moko duto molwore.
4 He hath bent his bow like an enemy; he stood with his right hand as an adversary, and hath slain all that was pleasant to the eye: in the tent of the daughter of Zion, he hath poured out his fury like fire.
Oseywayo atungʼe mar kedo gi joge mana ka gima gin wasike. Kaka jasigu neko, osenego jogo duto mane nenore mabeyo e wangʼ, kendo oseolo mirimbe oko ka mach kuom hemb Nyar Sayun.
5 The Lord is become as an enemy: he hath swallowed up Israel; he hath swallowed up all her palaces; he hath destroyed his strongholds, and hath multiplied in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.
Ruoth Nyasaye chalo gi jasigu; kendo osetieko Israel! Osemuko ute Israel duto mag ruoth kendo oseketho mieche mochiel motegno. Osemedo ywagruok kod kuyo ne Nyar Juda.
6 And he hath violently cast down his enclosure as a garden; he hath destroyed his place of assembly: Jehovah hath caused set feast and sabbath to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger king and priest.
Oseketho kare mar dak mana ka puodho moketh chambe modongʼ nono, kendo osemuko kare mar romo. Jehova Nyasaye osemiyo Sayun wiye owil kod sewni moyier gi Sabatoge; kendo kuom mirimbe mager, osejwangʼo ruoth kaachiel gi jadolo.
7 The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath rejected his sanctuary; he hath given up into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces: they have made a noise in the house of Jehovah, as on the day of a set feast.
Ruoth Nyasaye osedagi kendone mar misango kendo jwangʼo kare maler mar lemo. Osechiwo ohinga mag kuonde mag dak e lwet wasigu; gisegoyo koko e od Jehova Nyasaye mana kaka ne itimo e odiechiengʼ mar sawo moyier.
8 Jehovah hath purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion: he hath stretched out the line, he hath not withdrawn his hand from destroying; and he hath made the rampart and the wall to lament: they languish together.
Jehova Nyasaye osechano muko ohinga molworo Nyar Sayun. Oserieyo rapim kendo ne ok ogengʼo lwete mondo kik okethe. Nomiyo chiel ma oko mar dala kod ohinga oyiengni, giduto kaachiel ne gimukore mi gigore piny.
9 Her gates are sunk into the ground; he hath destroyed and broken her bars. Her king and her princes are among the nations: the law is no [more]; her prophets also find no vision from Jehovah.
Dhorangeyene osegore piny molal ei lowo, oseturo lodi mage kendo kethogi. Ruodhe gi jodonge oke e kind ogendini, chik onge koro, to jonabi mage koro ok yud fweny moa kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, they keep silence; they have cast dust upon their heads, they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their head to the ground.
Jodongo mag nyar Sayun, obedo piny kolingʼ thi, gisebuko wiyegi gi buru kendo girwako piende gugru. Nyi Jerusalem osekulo wiyegi piny.
11 Mine eyes are consumed with tears, my bowels are troubled; my liver is poured upon the earth, because of the ruin of the daughter of my people; because infant and suckling swoon in the streets of the city.
Wangʼa ojony nikech ywak, chunya ool, kendo chandore malit nikech joga osetieki, kendo nyithindo kod nyithindo mayom kech nego e yore mag dala maduongʼ.
12 They say to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? when they swoon as the wounded in the streets of the city; when they pour out their soul into their mothers' bosom.
Kech negogi e kor minegi, ka jogo mohiny e lweny e yore mag dala maduongʼ, mi gipodhi, omiyo gipenjo minegi niya, “Ere chiemo kod divai?”
13 What shall I take to witness for thee? what shall I liken unto thee, daughter of Jerusalem? What shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, virgin daughter of Zion? For thy ruin is great as the sea: who will heal thee?
Yaye Nyar Jerusalem, en angʼo madawach kuomi? Koso en angʼo ma dapimigo? Yaye Nyar Sayun mapok ongʼeyo dichwo, en angʼo ma dapimigo, koso en angʼo ma dahoyigo? Adhola ma in-go tut mana ka nam. Ere ngʼama dithiedhnigo?
14 Thy prophets have seen vanity and folly for thee; and they have not revealed thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee burdens of falsehood and causes of expulsion.
Fweny mane jonabi magi oneno ne ok adiera, to gin mana miriambo lilo, ne ok ginyisi richoni mondo omi kik teri e twech. To fweny mane ginyisi ne gin mana weche mag miriambo kendo ma wito ji.
15 All that pass by clap [their] hands at thee; they hiss and shake their head at the daughter of Jerusalem: Is this the city which they called, The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?
Ji duto makadho buti pamo ni lwetegi; gijari kendo gikino wigi kuom gigo mosetimorene Nyar Jerusalem, ka gipenjore niya, “Bende ma e dala maduongʼ ma yande ongʼere ni dala maler, kendo mor mar piny mangima?”
16 All thine enemies open their mouth against thee, they hiss and gnash the teeth: they say, We have swallowed [her] up; this is forsooth the day that we looked for: we have found, we have seen [it].
Wasiki duto wuoyo marach kuomi; gijari ka gikayo lekegi kagiwacho niya, “Wasetieke chuth. Ma e ndalo mane wasebedo ka warito; adier, osechopo ma wanene.”
17 Jehovah hath done what he had devised; he hath fulfilled his word which he had commanded from the days of old: he hath thrown down, and hath not spared, and he hath caused the enemy to rejoice over thee; he hath set up the horn of thine adversaries.
Jehova Nyasaye osetimo gima ne osechano; osechopo mano mane owacho, ma en gima nochiko chon. Osetieki ma ok odewo, kendo osemiyo wasigu goyoni siboi, komedogi teko.
18 Their heart cried unto the Lord. O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a torrent day and night: give thyself no respite; let not the apple of thine eye rest.
Chunje ji ywak ni Ruoth Nyasaye. Yaye ohinga mar Nyar Sayun, we pi wangʼi omol ka aora, odiechiengʼ gotieno; kik iywe kata matin, kendo pi wangʼi kik chogi.
19 Arise, cry out in the night, in the beginning of the watches; pour out thy heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young children, who faint from hunger at the top of all the streets.
Aa malo, ywagi otieno duto, e kindego mag arita ma otieno chakore, kendo weche duto manie chunyi ol oko ka pi e nyim Ruoth Nyasaye. Tingʼ bedeni malo kilame nikech nyithindi, ma kech nego e wangʼ yore duto.
20 See, Jehovah, and consider to whom thou hast done this! Shall the women eat their fruit, the infants that they nursed? Shall priest and prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye winjie wachni: En ngʼa misetimone gima lit machal kama? Bende mon dicham nyithindgi ma giserito maber kama? Koso jodolo gi jonabi dinegi e kama ler mar lemo mar Ruoth Nyasaye adier?
21 The child and the old man lie on the ground in the streets; my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword: thou hast slain [them] in the day of thine anger; thou hast killed, thou hast not spared.
Jomatindo gi jomadongo nindo e yore motimo buru; yawuota gi nyiga oseneg gi ligangla. Isenegogi ka in gi mirima kendo isetiekogi ka ok idewo.
22 Thou hast called up, as on the day of a set feast, my terrors on every side; and in the day of Jehovah's anger there was none that escaped or remained: those that I have nursed and brought up hath mine enemy consumed.
Ne iluongo masira koa kuonde duto mana ka ji mabiro e nyasi moro maduongʼ. E odiechiengʼ mar mirimb Jehova Nyasaye onge ngʼato mane otony kata mane odongʼ kangima. Kuom joga mane apidho kendo arito, wasika osetieko.
