< Jeremiah 49 >
1 Against the children of Ammon. Thus saith the Lord: Hath Israel no sons? or hath he no heir? Why then hath Melchom inherited Gad: and his people dwelt in his cities?
Wach kuom jo-Amon: Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Onge yawuowi e Israel? Oonge gi jarit girkeni mage? To kare angʼo momiyo Molek osekawo mwandu Gad? Angʼo momiyo joge odak e dalane?”
2 Therefore behold the days come, saith the Lord, and I will cause the noise of war to be heard in Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and it shall be destroyed into a heap, and her daughters shall be burnt with fire, and Israel shall possess them that have possessed him, saith the Lord.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “To ndalo biro, ma anagoye koko mar lweny mondo oked gi Raba mar jo-Amon; enobed pith mar kethruok, kendo gwenge molworogi nowangʼ. Eka Israel noriemb jogo mane oriembogi,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
3 Howl, O Hesebon, for Hai is wasted. Cry, ye daughters of Rabbath, gird yourselves with haircloth: mourn and go about by the hedges: for Melchom shall be carried into captivity, his priests, and his princes together.
“Dengi, yaye Heshbon, nimar Ai okethi! Ywaguru, yaye joma odak Raba! Rwakuru lepu mag ywak kendo uywagi; ringuru koni gi koni, e alwora mar dala, nimar Molek noter e twech, kaachiel gi jodolo mage kod jotelo mage.
4 Why gloriest thou in the valleys? thy valley hath flowed away, O delicate daughter, that hast trusted in thy treasures, and hast said: Who shall come to me?
Angʼo momiyo usungoru kuom holo mau, sungruok kuom holo mau manyak? Yaye nyako ma ok ja-ratiro, igeno kuom mwandu magi kendo iwacho niya, Ngʼama biro monja?
5 Behold I will bring a fear upon thee, saith the Lord God of hosts, from all that are round about thee: and you shall be scattered every one out of one another’s sight, neither shall there be any to gather together them that flee.
Anakel luoro kuomu koa kuom jogo duto man butu,” Ruoth, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ema owacho. “Un duto noriembu, kendo onge ngʼama nochok joma noringo moke.
6 And afterwards I will cause the captives of the children of Ammon to return, saith the Lord.
“Kata kamano bangʼe, anaduog mwandu jo-Amon,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
7 Against Edom. Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Is wisdom no more in Theman? counsel is perished from her children: their wisdom is become unprofitable.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho kuom Edom: “Bende pod nitie rieko ei Teman? To puonj oselalne jorieko? To rieko mag-gi osetop?
8 Flee and turn your backs, go down into the deep hole, ye inhabitants of Dedan: for I have brought the destruction of Esau upon him, the time of his visitation.
Lokreuru kendo uringi, ponduru e rogo mopandore, un joma odak Dedan, nimar anakel masira ne Esau e kinde ma anakume.
9 If grapegatherers had come to thee, would they not have left a bunch? if thieves in the night, they would have taken what was enough for them.
Ka jopon olemb mzabibu obiro iru, donge digiwe olemb mzabibu matin? Ka jokwoge obiro gotieno, donge gibiro kwalo mwandu magu kaka ginyalo?
10 But I have made Esau bare, I have revealed his secrets, and he cannot be hid: his seed is laid waste, and his brethren, and his neighbours, and he shall not be.
To analony Esau duk; anael kuondege malingʼ-lingʼ, mondo omi kik opondi. Nyithinde, wedene gi jomodak bute nolal nono, kendo ok nochak obed chutho.
11 Leave thy fatherless children: I will make them live: and thy widows shall hope in me.
Weuru kiye mau; anares ngimagi. Mondu duto ma chwogi otho, bende nyalo keto geno mag-gi kuoma.”
12 For thus saith the Lord: Behold they whose judgment was not to drink of the cup, shall certainly drink: and shalt thou come off as innocent? thou shalt not come off as innocent, but drinking thou shalt drink.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Ka jogo ma ok owinjore omadh kikombe nyaka madhe, to angʼo momiyo ok anyal kumi? Ok initony ma ok okumi, to nyaka imadhe.”
13 For I have sworn by myself, saith the Lord, that Bosra shall become a desolation, and a reproach, and a desert, and a curse: and all her cities shall be everlasting wastes.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon, ni Bozra nokethi kendo nobed gir bwogo ji, gir jaro kendo nobed gir kwongʼ, kendo mieche duto nokethi chuth.”
14 I have heard a rumour from the Lord, and an ambassador is sent to the nations: Gather yourselves together, and come against her, and let us rise up to battle.
Asewinjo wach koa kuom Jehova Nyasaye kama: Jaote oseor mondo owach ne ogendini niya, “Chokreuru mondo umonje! Chungʼuru malo wadhi e kedo!”
15 For behold I have made thee a little one among the nations, despicable among men.
“Koro abiro miyo udok matin e kind ogendini, kendo joma ijaro e dier ji.
16 Thy arrogancy hath deceived thee, and the pride of thy heart: O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, and endeavourest to lay hold on the height of the hill: but though thou shouldst make thy nest as high as an eagle, I will bring thee down from thence, saith the Lord.
Luoro musemiyo ji kod sunga manie chunyu osewuondou, un jogo modak e kind lwendni, modak kuonde motingʼore gi malo mar got. Kata obedo ni ugero uteu mabor ka od otenga, koa kuno abiro dwokou piny,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
17 And Edom shall be desolate: every one that shall pass by it, shall be astonished, and shall hiss at all its plagues.
“Edom nobed gima bwogo ji; jogo duto makalo bute nohum nono, kendo gininyiere ka gineno adhondene duto.”
18 As Sodom was overthrown and Gomorrha, and the neighbours thereof, saith the Lord: there shall not a man dwell there, and there shall no son of man inhabit it.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Mana kaka Sodom gi Gomora nokethi, kaachiel gi mier mokiewo kodgi, e kaka en bende nobedi maonge ngʼato angʼata modak kanyo kendo.
19 Behold one shall come up as a lion from the swelling of the Jordan, against the strong and beautiful: for I will make him run suddenly upon her: and who shall be the chosen one whom I may appoint over her? for who is like to me? and who shall abide me? and who is that shepherd that can withstand my countenance?
“Ka sibuor mabiro koa e bungu moyugno mar Jordan nyaka kar kwath man-gi lum, anariemb Edom oa e pinye kadiemo wangʼ. En ngʼa mowal manyalo yiero ne ma? En ngʼa machalo koda kendo manyalo chungʼ koda? Koso jakwath mane manyalo chungʼ koda?”
20 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the Lord, which he hath taken concerning Edom: and his thoughts which he hath thought concerning the inhabitants of Theman: surely the little ones of the flock shall cast them down, of a truth they shall destroy them with their habitation.
Emomiyo, winj gima Jehova Nyasaye osechano timo ne Edom, gima oseramo ni nyaka otimne joma odak Teman: Nyithi rombe bende nokaw; enoketh chuth kuondegi mag kwath nikech gin.
21 The earth is moved at the noise of their fall: the cry of their voice is heard in the Red Sea.
Piny noyiengni kowinjo ni ologi; ywakgi nowinjre nyaka e Nam Makwar.
22 Behold he shall come up as an eagle, and fly: and he shall spread his wings over Bosra: and in that day the heart of the valiant ones of Edom shall be as the heart of a woman in labour.
Ne! Otenga nofu kochomo malo kendo piny koyaro bwombene ewi Bozra. E odiechiengno chunje jolweny mag Edom nochal gi chuny dhako mamuoch kayo.
23 Against Damascus. Emath is confounded and Arphad: for they have heard very bad tidings, they are troubled as in the sea: through care they could not rest.
Kuom Damaski: “Hamath gi Arpad luoro omako, nimar giwinjo wach marach, chunygi omoko, kendo nigi chandruok ka nam mogingore.
24 Damascus is undone, she is put to flight, trembling hath seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken her as a woman in labour.
Damaski osebedo maonge teko, osea gi ngʼwech, kendo achiedh-nade osemake; lit gi rem osemake, kaka rem mar dhako mamuoch kayo.
25 How have they forsaken the city of renown, the city of joy!
Angʼo momiyo ok osejwangʼ dala maduongʼ mongʼere; dala mamor godo?
26 Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets: and all the men of war shall be silent in that day, saith the Lord of hosts.
Adiera, joge matindo nopodh e yore; jolweny mage duto nolingʼ thi odiechiengno,” Jehova Nyasaye Maratego owacho.
27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, rind it shall devour the strong holds of Benadad.
“Anawangʼ ohingini mag Damaski; notiek kuonde mochiel motegno mag Ben-Hadad.”
28 Against Cedar and against the kingdoms of Asor, which Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon destroyed. Thus saith the Lord: Arise, and go ye up to Cedar, and waste the children of the east.
Kuom Kedar gi pinyruodhi mag Hazor, mane Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon omonjo: Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Chungʼuru malo, kendo umonj Keda, mi utiek joma aa yo wuok chiengʼ.
29 They shall take their tents, and their flocks: and shall carry off for themselves their curtains, and all their vessels, and their camels: and they shall call fear upon them round about.
Hembegi gi jambgi nokaw; kar dak margi nowal oko, kaachiel gi mwandugi duto kod ngamia. Ji nogonegi koko ni, ‘Masira maduongʼ koni gi koni!’”
30 Flee ye, get away speedily, sit in deep holes, you that inhabit Asur, saith the Lord: for Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath conceived designs against you.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Ringuru piyo uayi! Daguru e rogo matut, un joma odak Hazor. Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon nigi paro marach kuomu; osechano timonu marach.
31 Arise, and so up to a nation that is at ease, and that dwelleth securely, saith the Lord: they have neither gates, nor bars: they dwell alone.
“Chunguru kendo umonj pinyni momewo, modak kodhil,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho, “piny maonge dhorangeye kata lodi; joge odak kendgi.
32 And their camels shall be for a spoil, and the multitude of their cattle for a booty, and I will scatter into every wind them that have their hair cut round, and I will bring destruction upon them from I all their confines, saith the Lord.
Ngamia mag-gi noyaki kendo kweth mag dhogi nope. Anake joge mantie kuma bor e tunge piny kendo anakelnegi masira koa koni gi koni,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
33 And Asor shall be a habitation for dragons, desolate for ever: no man shall abide there, nor son of man inhabit it.
“Hazor nobed thim mar ondiegi, kama ojwangʼ nyaka chiengʼ. Onge ngʼama nodag kanyo; onge ngʼama nodag e iye.”
34 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremias the prophet against Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Sedecias king of Juda, saying:
Ma e wach Jehova Nyasaye mane obirone janabi Jeremia kuom Elam, e ndalo chakruok mar loch Zedekia ruodh Juda:
35 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Behold I will break the bow of Elam, and their chief strength.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, wacho: “Ne, anatur atung Elam, girgi maduongʼ mar tekogi.
36 And I will bring upon Elam the four winds from the fear quarters of heaven: and I will scatter them into all these winds: and there shall be no nation, to which the fugitives of Elam shall not come.
Anamonj Elam gi yembe angʼwen moa e tunge angʼwen mar polo; anakegi e yembe angʼwen-go kendo onge piny ma jo-Elam momaki ok nodhiye.
37 And I will cause Elam to be afraid before their enemies, and in the sight of them that seek their life: and I will bring evil upon them, my fierce wrath, saith the Lord: and will send the sword after them, till I consume them.
Anami Elam ongʼengʼ e nyim wasike, e nyim jogo madwaro tieko ngimagi; anakel masiche kuomgi, ma en mirimba mager,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho. “Analawgi gi ligangla manyaka atiekgi.”
38 And I will set my throne in Elam, and destroy kings and princes from thence, saith the Lord.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Anaket koma mar duongʼ ei Elam, kendo atiek ruodhe kod jotende.”
39 But in the latter days I will cause the captives of Elam, to return, saith the Lord.
“Kata kamano anaduog mwandu Elam e ndalo ma biro,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
