< Jeremiah 15 >

1 And the Lord said to me: If Moses and Samuel shall stand before me, my soul is not towards this people: cast them out from my sight, and let them go forth.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachona kama: “Kata dabed ni Musa gi Samuel ema nyalo chungʼ e nyima, to ok anyal weyonegi richogi. Golgi oko e nyima! Wegi gidhi!
2 And if they shall say unto thee: Whither shall we go forth? thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord: Such as are for death, to death: and such as are to the sword, to the sword: and such as are for famine, to famine: and such as are to captivity, to captivity.
To ka gipenji ni, ‘Ere kama wanyalo dhiyoe?’ To nyisgi ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “‘Mago matho ochomo, tho nonegi; mago ma ligangla ochomo, noneg gi ligangla; to mago ma kech ochomo, kech nonegi; to mago ma twech ochomo, noter e twech.’”
3 And I will visit them with four kinds, saith the Lord: The sword to kill, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the air, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.
Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya, “Abiro oro masiche angʼwen mopogore opogore, ma gin ligangla mar nek kod guogi maywayo gi mabor gi winy mafuyo e kor polo gi ondiegi mag bungu mondo okidhgi kendo tiekogi.
4 And I will give them up to the rage of all the kingdoms of the earth: because of Manasses the son of Ezechias the king of Juda, for all that he did in Jerusalem.
Anami pinjeruodhi duto mag piny bed gibuok kuomgi nikech gima Manase wuod Hezekia ruodh Juda notimo e Jerusalem.
5 For who shall have pity on thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan thee? or who shall go to pray for thy peace?
“Ere ngʼama nokechi, yaye Jerusalem? Ere ngʼama biro ywagi? Ere ngʼama nochungʼ ma penji kaka idhi?”
6 Thou hast forsaken me, saith the Lord, thou art gone backward: and I will stretch out my hand against thee, and I will destroy thee: I am weary of entreating thee.
Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya, “Isedaga. Isiko mana kibaro iweyo yo. Omiyo anaket lweta kuomi kendo tieki; ok anatimni ngʼwono kendo.
7 And I will scatter them with a fan in the gates of the land: I have killed and destroyed my people, and yet they are not returned form their ways.
Anapiedhgi gi odhech pietho e dhorangeye mag dala maduongʼ mar piny. Anakel lit kod kethruok ne joga, nimar gitamore loko yoregi.
8 Their widows are multiplied unto me above the sand of the sea: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young man a spoiler at noonday: I have cast a terror on a sudden upon the cities.
Anami mon ma chwogi otho mag-gi bedo mathoth moloyo kwoyo manie dho nam. E odiechiengʼ tir anakel ngʼama nego mana rowere; kendo apoya nono anakelnegi lit kod bwok maduongʼ.
9 She that hath borne seven is become weak, her soul hath fainted away: her sun is gone down, while it was yet day: she is confounded, and ashamed: and the residue of them I will give up to the sword in the sight of their enemies, saith the Lord.
Miyo man-gi nyithindo abiriyo nobed mool matho. To chiengʼ marienyne nopodhi kapod en odiechiengʼ; wiye nokuodi kendo chunye nochandre. Ananeg jogo motony gi ligangla, e nyim wasikgi,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
10 Woe is me, my mother: why hast thou borne me a man of strife, a man of contention to all the earth? I have not lent on usury, neither hath any man lent to me on usury: yet all curse me.
Wuololo, minwa, angʼo momiyo ne inywola, an ngʼat ma piny ngima piemgo kendo kedogo! Pok aholo ngʼato kata an bende pok ohola, to kata kamano ji duto kwongʼa.
11 The Lord saith to me: Assuredly it shall be well with thy remnant, assuredly I shall help thee in the time of affliction, and in the time of tribulation against the enemy.
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho, “Adier anaresi gi gima omiyo maber; adier anami wasiki sayi, e kinde mag masira kod kinde mag thagruok.
12 Shall iron be allied with the iron from the north, and the brass?
“Bende dhano nyalo turo chuma, chuma moa yo nyandwat kata mula?
13 Thy riches and thy treasures I will give unto spoil for nothing, because of all thy sins, even in all thy borders.
“Mwandu magu kod mago ma ukano anachiw mondo yaki, maonge chudo, nikech richo magu duto e pinyu mangima.
14 And I will bring thy enemies out of a land, which thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in my rage, it shall burn upon you.
Anaketu ubed wasumbini ne wasiku e piny ma ok ungʼeyo, nimar mirimba biro moko mach mabiro wangʼou.”
15 O Lord, thou knowest, remember me, and visit me, and defend me from them that persecute me, do not defend me in thy patience: know that for thy sake I have sufferred reproach.
In ingʼeyo, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; para kendo konya. Chul kuor ne joma sanda. Isenano koda omiyo kik iweya; par kaka osesanda kochaya nikech in.
16 Thy words were found, and I did eat them, and thy word was to me a joy and gladness of my heart: for thy name is called upon me, O Lord God of hosts.
Ka wechegi nobiro, ne achamogi; ne gin morna, kendo ilo mar chunya, nimar iluonga gi nyingi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Maratego.
17 I sat not in the assembly of jesters, nor did I make a boast of the presence of thy hand: I sat alone, because thou hast filled me with threats.
Ne ok abedo e kanyakla mar jojaro, ne ok atimo nyasi kodgi; to ne abedo kenda nikech lweti ne ni kuoma kendo ne ipongʼa gi mirima.
18 Why is my sorrow become perpetual, and my wound desperate so as to refuse to be healed? it is become to me as the falsehood of deceitful waters that cannot be trusted.
Angʼo momiyo rem mara ok rum kendo adhonda lich ma ok nyal thiedhore? Bende inyalo bedona ka aora modwono, mana ka soko motwo?
19 Therefore thus saith the Lord: If thou wilt be converted, I will convert thee, and thou shalt stand before my face; and if thou wilt separate the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: they shall be turned to thee, and thou shalt not be turned to them.
Emomiyo ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Ka ilokori iweyo richoni, anaduogi mondo itina; ka iwacho weche mowinjore, ma ok manono, to ni inibed ngʼat ma wuoyo e loya. We jogi oduog ira, to in kik idog irgi.
20 And I will make thee to this people as a strong wall of brass: and they shall fight against thee, and shall not prevail: for I am with thee to save thee, and to deliver thee, saith the Lord.
Anaketi ibed ohinga ne jogi, ohinga moger motegno mar mula; giniked kodi to ok gini loyi, nimar an kodi mondo akonyi kendo resi,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
21 And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the mighty.
“Anaresi e lwet joma timbegi mono kendo akonyi e lwet joma ger.”
