Jeremiah 17
1 The sinne of Iudah is written with a pen of yron, and with the poynt of a diamonde, and grauen vpon the table of their heart, and vpon the hornes of your altars.
“Atĩrĩrĩ, mehia ma Juda makururĩtwo na karamu ga kĩgera, magakururwo na mũthia mũũgĩ wa kahiga ka nyaigĩ, ihengere-inĩ cia ngoro ciao, o na magakururwo hĩa-inĩ cia igongona ciao.
2 They remember their altars as their children, with their groues by the greene trees vpon the hilles.
O na ciana ciao nĩiririkanaga igongona ciao na itugĩ cia Ashera iria ciahaandĩtwo rungu rwa mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩruru, o na tũrĩma-inĩ tũrĩa tũraihu na igũrũ.
3 O my mountaine in the fielde, I will giue thy substance, and all thy treasures to be spoyled, for the sinne of thy high places throughout all thy borders.
Kĩrĩma gĩakwa kĩrĩa kĩrĩ bũrũri-inĩ, o hamwe na ũtonga waku, na mĩthiithũ yaku yothe-rĩ, nĩngacirekereria itahwo, o hamwe na kũndũ gwaku kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, nĩ ũndũ wa mehia marĩa maiyũrĩte guothe bũrũri-inĩ waku.
4 And thou shalt rest, and in thee shall be a rest from thine heritage that I gaue thee, and I will cause thee to serue thine enemies in the land, which thou knowest not: for yee haue kindled a fire in mine anger, which shall burne for euer.
Nĩ ũndũ wa kwĩhia gwaku wee mwene, nĩũkoorwo nĩ igai rĩrĩa ndaakũheire. Nĩngagũtua ngombo ya thũ ciaku thĩinĩ wa bũrũri ũtooĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩũtũmĩte marakara makwa maakane, na megũtũũra makanaga nginya tene.”
5 Thus saith the Lord, Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arme, and withdraweth his heart from the Lord.
Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Kũgwatwo nĩ kĩrumi nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wĩhokaga mũndũ, o ũcio wĩhokaga mũndũ nĩ ũndũ wa hinya wake, ngoro yake ĩkahutatĩra Jehova.
6 For he shall be like the heath in the wildernesse, and shall not see when any good commeth, but shall inhabite the parched places in the wildernesse, in a salt land, and not inhabited.
Agaatuĩka o ta kĩhinga kĩrĩ werũ-inĩ ũtarĩ kĩndũ; ndakoona ũgaacĩru ihinda rĩakinya. Agaatũũra kũndũ kũmũ na kũrĩ nyoota werũ-inĩ, o kũu bũrũri-inĩ wa cumbĩ gũtatũũraga mũndũ.
7 Blessed be the man, that trusteth in ye Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.
“No kũrathimwo nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wĩhokaga Jehova, o ũrĩa ũigĩte mwĩhoko wake harĩ we.
8 For he shall be as a tree that is planted by the water, which spreadeth out her rootes by the riuer, and shall not feele when the heate commeth, but her leafe shall be greene, and shall not care for the yeere of drought, neyther shall cease from yeelding fruit.
Agaatuĩka ta mũtĩ ũhaandĩtwo hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia maaĩ, ũrĩa ũtaambagia mĩri yaguo ĩgakinya rũũĩ-inĩ. Ndwĩtigagĩra hĩndĩ ya ũrugarĩ wa riũa wakinya; mathangũ maguo makoragwo marĩ maruru. Ndũngĩũma mwaka ũrĩa gũtarĩ mbura, na ndwagaga gũciara maciaro maguo.”
9 The heart is deceitfull and wicked aboue all things, who can knowe it?
Ngoro ya mũndũ nĩĩheenanagia gũkĩra ciũmbe iria ingĩ ciothe, na nĩ njaganu mũno. Nũũ ũngĩhota gũthuuthuuria ũhoro wayo?
10 I the Lord search the heart, and try ye reines, euen to giue euery man according to his wayes, and according to the fruite of his workes.
“Niĩ Jehova thuthuuragia ngoro, na ngoiruuria maũndũ marĩa mahithe meciiria-inĩ, nĩgeetha ndaathime mũndũ o mũndũ kũringana na maũndũ marĩa ekaga, o na kũringana na ũrĩa ciĩko ciake itariĩ.”
11 As the partryche gathereth the yong, which she hath not brought forth: so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leaue them in the middes of his dayes, and at his ende shall bee a foole.
O ta ũrĩa ngware ĩkomagĩrĩria matumbĩ marĩa ĩtareketie-rĩ, ũguo noguo mũndũ ũrĩa wĩtongagia na njĩra itarĩ cia kĩhooto atariĩ. O matukũ ma muoyo wake magĩthiĩ kũigananĩria-rĩ, ũtonga ũcio nĩũkamweherera, nake marigĩrĩrio-inĩ nĩakeyonania arĩ mũkĩĩgu.
12 As a glorious throne exalted from the beginning, so is the place of our Sanctuarie.
Handũ haitũ harĩa haamũre, hahaanaine na gĩtĩ gĩa ũthamaki kĩrĩa kĩrĩ riiri, kĩrĩa gĩtũũrĩte gĩtũũgĩrĩtio kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria,
13 O Lord, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee, shall be confounded: they that depart from thee, shalbe written in the earth, because they haue forsaken the Lord, the fountaine of liuing waters.
Wee Jehova, o wee mwĩhoko wa Isiraeli, arĩa othe magũtirikaga nĩmagaconorithio. Arĩa makũhutatagĩra makoima harĩwe-rĩ, makaandĩkwo marĩĩtwa mao rũkũngũ-inĩ rwa thĩ, nĩ ũndũ nĩmatirikĩte Jehova, o we gĩthima kĩa maaĩ ma muoyo.
14 Heale me, O Lord, and I shall bee whole: saue me, and I shall bee saued: for thou art my prayse.
Wee Jehova-rĩ, honia na nĩngũhona; honokia na nĩngũhonoka, nĩ ũndũ wee nowe ngoocaga.
15 Behold, they say vnto me, Where is the word of the Lord? let it come nowe.
Andũ manjũũragia atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova ĩkĩrĩ kũ? Nĩĩkĩhingio rĩu!”
16 But I haue not thrust in my selfe for a pastour after thee, neither haue I desired the day of miserie, thou knowest: that which came out of my lips, was right before thee.
Niĩ ndiũrĩte ngatiga gũtuĩka mũrĩithi waku; wee nĩũũĩ atĩ ndiĩrirĩirie mũthenya wa mũtino. Ũrĩa wothe njaragia na kanua gakwa ndũhithĩtwo harĩwe.
17 Be not terrible vnto mee: thou art mine hope in the day of aduersitie.
Ndũgatuĩke itua-nda harĩ niĩ; wee nĩwe kĩĩhitho gĩakwa mũthenya wa mwanangĩko.
18 Let them bee confounded, that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be afraide, but let not me be afraide: bring vpon them the day of aduersitie, and destroy them with double destruction.
Arĩa maanyariiraga maroconorithio, no niĩ-rĩ, ndũkanareke njonoke; maronyiitwo nĩ kĩmako, no niĩ-rĩ, ndũkanareke nyiitwo nĩ kĩmako. Makinyĩrĩrie mũthenya wa mwanangĩko; maniine na iniinana inene maita meerĩ.
19 Thus hath the Lord said vnto me, Goe and stande in the gate of the children of the people, whereby the Kings of Iudah come in, and by the which they goe out, and in all ye gates of Ierusalem,
Jehova aanjĩĩrire atĩrĩ: “Thiĩ ũrũgame kĩhingo-inĩ kĩrĩa gĩĩtagwo kĩhingo kĩa andũ, kĩrĩa athamaki a Juda mageraga magĩtoonya itũũra-inĩ na makiuma; ningĩ ũrũgame ihingo-inĩ iria ingĩ ciothe cia Jerusalemu.
20 And say vnto them, Heare the word of the Lord, ye Kings of Iudah, and al Iudah, and all the inhabitants of Ierusale, that enter in by these gates.
Mũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Ta thikĩrĩriai ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova, inyuĩ athamaki a Juda, na andũ othe a Juda, na mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ũtũũraga Jerusalemu, ũrĩa ũtoonyagĩra ihingo-inĩ ici.
21 Thus sayth the Lord, Take heede to your soules, and beare no burden in the Sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Ierusalem.
Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Mwĩmenyererei mũtikanakuue mũrigo mũthenya wa Thabatũ, kana mũũtoonyerie ihingo-inĩ cia Jerusalemu.
22 Neither cary foorth burdens out of your houses in the Sabbath day: neither doe yee any worke, but sanctifie the Sabbath, as I commanded your fathers.
Mũtikanakuue mũrigo mũũrute nyũmba-inĩ cianyu, kana mũrute wĩra o na ũrĩkũ mũthenya wa Thabatũ, no rĩrĩ, mũthenya wa Thabatũ mũwamũrage, o ta ũrĩa ndaathire maithe manyu mekage.
23 But they obeied not, neither inclined their eares, but made their neckes stiffe and would not heare, nor receiue correction.
No matiigana gũthikĩrĩria kana kũrũmbũiya ũhoro ũcio: moomirie ngingo, makĩaga gũthikĩrĩria, o na makĩrega gũtaarwo.
24 Neuerthelesse if ye will heare me, sayth the Lord, and beare no burden through the gates of the citie in the Sabbath day, but sanctifie ye Sabbath day, so that ye do no worke therein,
Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, mũngĩmenyerera mũnjathĩkĩre na mwage gũkuua mĩrigo mũmĩtoonyerie ihingo-inĩ cia itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene mũthenya wa Thabatũ, no mũmenyerere mũthenya wa Thabatũ mũwamũre na ũndũ wa kwaga kũruta wĩra mũthenya ũcio-rĩ
25 Then shall the Kings and the princes enter in at the gates of this citie, and shall sit vpon the throne of Dauid, and shall ride vpon charets, and vpon horses, both they and their princes, the men of Iudah, and the inhabitants of Ierusalem: and this citie shall remaine for euer.
hĩndĩ ĩyo athamaki arĩa maikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũthamaki kĩa Daudi nĩmagatoonyera ihingo cia itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene marĩ na anene ao. O, hamwe na anene ao, nĩmagooka makuuĩtwo nĩ ngaari cia ita, na mahaicĩte mbarathi, marĩ hamwe na andũ a Juda, na andũ arĩa matũũraga Jerusalemu, narĩo itũũra rĩu-rĩ, nĩrĩgatũũrwo nĩ andũ nginya tene.
26 And they shall come from the cities of Iudah, and from about Ierusalem, and from the land of Beniamin, and from the plaine, and from the mountaines, and from the South, which shall bring burnt offrings, and sacrifices, and meate offrings, and incense, and shall bring sacrifice of prayse into the house of the Lord.
Andũ nĩmagooka moimĩte matũũra-inĩ ma Juda, o na tũtũũra-inĩ tũrĩa tũrigiicĩirie Jerusalemu, na moime bũrũri wa Benjamini na bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ magũrũ-inĩ ma irĩma cia mwena wa ithũĩro, na moime bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma o na wa Negevu, moke marehe indo cia maruta ma njino na cia magongona, na maruta ma mũtu, na ũbumba, na maruta ma gũcookia ngaatho nyũmba-inĩ ya Jehova.
27 But if ye will not heare me to sanctifie the Sabbath day, and not to beare a burden nor to go through the gates of Ierusalem in the Sabbath day, then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall deuoure the palaces of Ierusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
No rĩrĩ, mũngĩrega kũnjathĩkĩra, na mwage kwamũra mũthenya wa Thabatũ na ũndũ wa kwaga gũkuua mũrigo o na ũrĩkũ rĩrĩa mũgũtoonyera ihingo-inĩ ici cia Jerusalemu mũthenya wa Thabatũ-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩngaakia mwaki ũtangĩhoreka ihingo-inĩ cia Jerusalemu nĩguo ũcine ciikaro ciao iria njirigĩre.’”
