Jeremiah 15
1 Then sayde the Lord vnto me, Though Moses and Samuel stoode before mee, yet mine affection coulde not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them depart.
Ningĩ Jehova akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ: “O na korwo Musa na Samũeli maarũgama mbere yakwa-rĩ, ngoro yakwa ndĩngĩerekera kũrĩ andũ aya. Maingatei mehere mbere yakwa! Nĩmarekwo mathiĩ!
2 And if they say vnto thee, Whither shall we depart? then tell them, Thus saith the Lord, Such as are appointed to death, vnto death: and such as are for the sworde, to the sworde: and such as are for the famine, to the famine: and such as are for the captiuitie, to the captiuitie.
Nao mangĩkũũria atĩrĩ, ‘Tũgũgĩthiĩ kũ?’ Ũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Jehova ekuuga: “‘Arĩa maathĩrĩirio gũkua-rĩ, magakue; arĩa maathĩrĩirio kũũragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora-rĩ, makooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora; arĩa maathĩrĩirio ngʼaragu-rĩ, makooragwo nĩ ngʼaragu; arĩa maathĩrĩirio gũtahwo-rĩ, matahwo matwarwo bũrũri ũngĩ.’
3 And I wil appoint ouer them foure kindes, sayth the Lord, the sworde to slay, and the dogs to teare in pieces, and the soules of the heauen, and the beastes of the earth to deuoure, and to destroy.
“Nĩngamarehithĩria mĩthemba ĩna ya aniinani mamookĩrĩre.” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga, “Rũhiũ rwa njora rũgooka rũũrage andũ, namo magui mamakururie, nacio nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ, o na nyamũ cia gũkũ thĩ imatambuure, imaniine.
4 I will scatter them also in all kingdomes of the earth, because of Manasseh the sonne of Hezekiah King of Iudah, for that which he did in Ierusalem.
Nĩngatũma matuĩke andũ a gũthũũrwo nĩ mothamaki mothe ma gũkũ thĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa Manase mũrũ wa Hezekia mũthamaki wa Juda eekire gũkũ itũũra-inĩ rĩa Jerusalemu.
5 Who shall then haue pitie vpon thee, O Ierusalem? or who shalbe sorie for thee? or who shall go to pray for thy peace?
“Nũũ ũgaakũiguĩra tha, wee Jerusalemu? Nũũ ũgaagũcakaĩra? Nũũ ũgaakerũra gwaku oke akũũrie ũrĩa ũhoro waku ũtariĩ?”
6 Thou hast forsaken me, sayth the Lord, and gone backward: therefore wil I stretch out mine hand against thee, and destroy thee: for I am weary with repenting.
Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩũndegete, wee ũtũũrĩte ũcookaga na thuutha. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngũgũtambũrũkĩria moko ngũniine; ndingĩĩricũkwo rĩngĩ.
7 And I wil scatter them with the fanne in the gates of the earth I haue wasted, and destroyed my people, yet they would not returne from their wayes.
Nĩngamahuha ta mahuti makĩhuhwo na gĩtarũrũ ihingo-inĩ cia itũũra inene rĩa bũrũri. Nĩngarehe gĩkuũ na mwanangĩko kũrĩ andũ akwa, nĩgũkorwo nĩmagĩte kũgarũrĩra mĩthiĩre yao.
8 Their widdowes are increased by mee aboue the sande of the sea: I haue brought vpon them, and against the assembly of the yong men a destroyer at noone day: I haue caused him to fal vpon them, and the citie suddenly, and speedily.
Nĩngatũma atumia ao a ndigwa maingĩhe, makĩre mũthanga wa iria-inĩ. Nĩngarehithia mũniinani hĩndĩ ya mĩaraho okĩrĩre manyina ma aanake ao; ngaamarehera ruo rũnene na makorererwo nĩ kĩeha kĩnene o rĩmwe.
9 Shee that hath borne seuen, hath bene made weake: her heart hath failed: the sunne hath failed her, whiles it was day: she hath bene confounded, and ashamed, and the residue of them will I deliuer vnto the sworde before their enemies, sayth the Lord.
Nyina wa ciana mũgwanja nĩakaringĩka, akue. Nĩagathũĩrĩrwo nĩ riũa kũrĩ o mũthenya barigici; nĩagaconorithio na anyararwo. Arĩa magaatigara ngaamaneana kũrĩ thũ ciao, maniinwo na rũhiũ rwa njora,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
10 Wo is mee, my mother, that thou hast borne mee, a contentious man, and a man that striueth with the whole earth I haue neither lent on vsury, nor men haue lent vnto me on vsurie: yet euery one doeth curse me.
Wũi-ĩiya-wakwa maitũ-ĩ, wee wanjiarire! Nduĩkĩte mũndũ wa kũgianagwo na kũhũũranagwo na niĩ nĩ bũrũri wothe! Niĩ ndikombithĩtie kana ngakomberwo kĩndũ nĩ mũndũ, no numagwo nĩ andũ othe.
11 The Lord sayd, Surely thy remnant shall haue wealth: surely I will cause thine enemie to intreate thee in the time of trouble, and in the time of affliction.
Jehova oigĩte atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ nĩngagũkũũra ndĩ na muoroto mwega harĩwe; ti-itherũ nĩngatũma thũ ciaku igũthaithe mahinda ma mwanangĩko na mahinda ma mĩnyamaro.
12 Shall the yron breake the yron, and the brasse that commeth from the North?
“Mũndũ no oine kĩgera: kĩgera kĩrĩa kiumĩte gathigathini, kana oine gĩcango?
13 Thy substance and thy treasures wil I giue to be spoyled without gaine, and that for all thy sinnes euen in all thy borders.
Nĩnganeana ũtonga waku na igĩĩna ciaku itahwo hatarĩ irĩhi, nĩ ũndũ wa mehia maku mothe marĩa maneekwo bũrũri-inĩ waku wothe.
14 And I wil make thee to go with thine enemies into a land that thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger, which shall burne you.
Nĩngamũtua ngombo cia thũ cianyu thĩinĩ wa bũrũri mũtooĩ, nĩ ũndũ marakara makwa nĩmagaakana ta mwaki, ũmũcine.”
15 O Lord, thou knowest, remember me, and visite me, and reuenge me of my persecuters: take mee not away in the continuance of thine anger: know that for thy sake I haue suffered rebuke.
Wee Jehova-rĩ, nĩwe ũũĩ; ndirikana na ũũmenyagĩrĩre. Ndĩhĩria kũrĩ arĩa maanyariiraga. Wee nĩũkiragĩrĩria; ndũkanjeherie; ririkana ũrĩa ndananyariirĩka nĩ ũndũ waku.
16 Thy wordes were founde by me, and I did eate them, and thy worde was vnto me the ioy and reioycing of mine heart: for thy Name is called vpon me, O Lord God of hostes.
Rĩrĩa ciugo ciaku cianginyĩrĩire-rĩ, nĩndacirĩire; ciarĩ gĩkeno gĩakwa, na igĩcanjamũra ngoro yakwa, nĩgũkorwo nĩnjĩtanĩtio na rĩĩtwa rĩaku, Wee Jehova Ngai-Mwene-Hinya-Wothe.
17 I sate not in the assembly of the mockers, neither did I reioyce, but sate alone because of thy plague: for thou hast filled me with indignation.
Ndirĩ ndaikara thiritũ-inĩ ya arĩa mekenagia, o na kana ngĩĩkenia magĩĩkenia; ndaikarire ndĩ wiki nĩ ũndũ guoko gwaku kwarĩ igũrũ rĩakwa, nawe nĩwanjiyũrĩtie marakara.
18 Why is mine heauines continuall? and my plague desperate and cannot be healed? why art thou vnto me as a lyar, and as waters that faile?
Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ruo rwakwa rwage gũthira, na kĩronda gĩakwa gĩkeeha, gĩkaaga kũhona? Anga ũgũtuĩka harĩ niĩ ta karũũĩ gatangĩĩhokwo, kana ta gĩthima kĩa maaĩ kĩrĩa kĩhũũaga?
19 Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou returne, then wil I bring thee againe, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take away the precious from the vile, thou shalt be according to my worde: let them returne vnto thee, but returne not thou vnto them.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Ũngĩĩrira, nĩngũgũcookereria nĩgeetha ũndungatagĩre; akorwo nĩũrĩaragia maũndũ marĩa marĩ bata, no ti marĩa matarĩ bata, nĩũgũtuĩka wa kũnjarĩrĩria. Andũ aya nĩmagũcookerere, no wee ndũkamacookerere.
20 And I will make thee vnto this people a strong brasen wall, and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not preuaile against thee: for I am with thee to saue thee and to deliuer thee, saith ye Lord.
Nĩngagũtua ta rũthingo harĩ andũ aya, ngũtue rũthingo rũrũmu rwa gĩcango; nĩmakarũa nawe, no matigagũtooria, nĩgũkorwo niĩ ndĩ hamwe nawe, nĩguo ngũteithũre na ngũhonokie,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
21 And I will deliuer thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeeme thee out of the hand of the tyrants.
“Nĩngakũhonokia kuuma moko-inĩ ma andũ arĩa aaganu, na ngũkũũre ngũrute moko-inĩ ma andũ arĩa matarĩ tha.”
