Jeremiah 40
1 The worde which came to Ieremiah from the Lord after that Nebuzar-adan the chiefe stewarde had let him goe from Ramath, when hee had taken him being bound in chaines among all that were caried away captiue of Ierusalem and Iudah, which were caried away captiue vnto Babel.
Wach nobiro ne Jeremia koa kuom Jehova Nyasaye bangʼ ka Nebuzaradan ma jatend lweny mar piny nosegonye Rama. Noyudo ka Jeremia otwe gi nyororo e dier joma nomak duto mane oa Jerusalem kod Juda mane oter e twech Babulon.
2 And the chiefe stewarde tooke Ieremiah, and said vnto him, The Lord thy God hath pronounced this plague vpon this place.
Ka jatend lweny noyudo Jeremia, nowachone niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi nochiko masirani ne pinyni.”
3 Nowe the Lord hath brought it, and done according as he hath said: because ye haue sinned against the Lord, and haue not obeyed his voyce, therefore this thing is come vpon you.
Kendo koro Jehova Nyasaye osemiyo otimore; osetimo kaka ne owacho ni obiro timo. Magi duto notimore nikech nutimo richo ne Jehova Nyasaye kendo ne ok gitimo dwaro mare.
4 And nowe beholde, I loose thee this day from the chaines which were on thine handes, if it please thee to come with me into Babel, come, and I will looke well vnto thee: but if it please thee not to come with mee into Babel, tarie still: beholde, all the lande is before thee: whither it seemeth good, and conuenient for thee to goe, thither goe.
To kawuononi aweyi thuolo ka agonyo nyoroche manie ngʼut lweti. Dhi koda Babulon, ka ihero, kendo anariti; to ka ok idwar, to kik ibi. Ne, piny ngima ni e lweti; dhi kamoro amora midwaro.
5 For yet he was not returned: therefore he said, Returne to Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, the sonne of Shaphan, whom the King of Babel hath made gouernour ouer all the cities of Iudah, and dwell with him among the people, or goe wheresoeuer it pleaseth thee to goe. So the chiefe stewarde gaue him vitailes and a rewarde, and let him goe.
Kata kamano, ka Jeremia ne pod ok owuok, Nebuzaradan nomedo kawacho niya, “Dog ir Gedalia wuod Ahikam, ma wuod Shafan, ma ruodh Babulon oseyiero mondo orit mier mag Juda, kendo idag kode kaachiel gi ji, ka ok kamano to idhi kamoro amora mihero.” Eka jatend lweny nomiye gik moko kod mich bangʼe noweye odhi.
6 Then went Ieremiah vnto Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, to Mizpah, and dwelt there with him among the people that were left in the lande.
Omiyo Jeremia nodhi Mizpa ir Gedalia wuod Ahikam mi odak kode kaachiel gi ji mane odongʼ e pinyno.
7 Nowe when all the captaines of the hoste, which were in the fieldes, euen they and their men heard, that the King of Babel had made Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam gouernour in the land, and that he had committed vnto him, men, and women, and children, and of the poore of the lande, that were not caried away captiue to Babel,
Ka jotend jolweny duto kod jogi mane pod ni e piny ma tambarare nowinjo ni ruodh Babulon noseyiero Gedalia wuod Ahikam kaka jatelo maduongʼ kendo okete jatelo mar chwo, mon kod nyithindo mane odhier moloyo e piny kendo mago mane ok oter e twech Babulon,
8 Then they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, euen Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, and Iohanan, and Ionathan the sonnes of Kareah, and Seraiah the sonne of Tanehumeth, and the sonnes of Ephai, the Netophathite, and Iezaniah the sonne of Maachathi, they and their men.
negibiro ir Gedalia e dala miluongo ni Mizpa. Jogo ne gin Ishmael wuod Nethania, Johanan gi Jonathan ma yawuot Karea, Seraya wuod Tanhumeth, yawuot Efai ma ja-Netofath, kod Jazania wuod ja-Maakath, kod jogi.
9 And Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, the sonne of Shaphan sware vnto them, and to their men, saying, Feare not to serue the Caldeans: dwell in the lande, and serue the King of Babel, and it shall be well with you.
Gedalia wuod Ahikam, ma wuod Shafan, nokwongʼore kosingorenegi kaachiel gi jogo mane ni kodgi kawacho niya, “Kik uluor tiyone jo-Babulon. Daguru e pinyni kendo uti ne ruodh Babulon, to unudhi maber.
10 As for me, Beholde, I will dwell at Mizpah to serue the Caldeans, which will come vnto vs: but you, gather you wine, and sommer fruites, and oyle, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities, that ye haue taken.
An awuon anadag Mizpa mondo achungʼ karu e nyim jo-Babulon mabiro irwa, to un onego uka olembe, divai, olembe mag ndalo oro gi mo, kendo uketgi e agulniu mag keno, kendo udag e dala ma usekawo.”
11 Likewise when all the Iewes that were in Moab, and among the Ammonites, and in Edom, and that were in all the countries, heard that the King of Babel had left a remnant of Iudah, and that he had set ouer them Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan,
Ka jo-Yahudi duto man Moab, Amon, Edom kod pinje mamoko nowinjo ni ruodh Babulon noweyo joma notony ei Juda kendo noyiero Gedalia wuod Ahikam, ma wuod Shafan, kaka jatendgi,
12 Euen all the Iewes returned out of all places where they were driuen, and came to the land of Iudah to Gedaliah vnto Mizpah, and gathered wine and sommer fruites, very much.
giduto negibiro e piny Juda, e Mizpa ir Gedalia, ka gia e pinje duto mane okegie. Kendo negikayo divai mathoth kod olembe mag ndalo oro.
13 Moreouer Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste, that were in the fieldes, came to Gedaliah to Mizpah,
Johanan wuod Karea kod jotend lweny duto ma pod ne nitiere e piny ma tambarare nodhi Mizpa ir Gedalia
14 And said vnto him, Knowest thou not that Baalis the King of the Ammonites hath sent Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah to slay thee? But Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam beleeued them not.
kendo owachone niya, “Bende ingʼeyo ni Baalis ruodh jo-Amon oseoro Ishmael wuod Nethania mondo okaw ngimani?” To Gedalia wuod Ahikam ne ok oyie gi wachgino.
15 Then Iohanan the sonne of Kareah spake to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, Let me goe, I pray thee, and I will slay Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, and no man shall know it. Wherefore should he kill thee, that all the Iewes, which are gathered vnto thee, shoulde be scattered, and the remnant in Iudah perish?
Eka Johanan wuod Karea nowachone Gedalia malingʼ-lingʼ ka en Mizpa niya, “Weya adhi kendo aneg Ishmael wuod Nethania, to onge ngʼama nongʼe. Angʼo momiyo odwaro kawo ngimani kendo omi jo-Yahudi duto mochokore buti oke kendo jo-Juda motony olal nono?”
16 But Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam said vnto Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, Thou shalt not doe this thing: for thou speakest falsely of Ishmael.
To Gedalia wuod Ahikam nowachone Johanan wuod Karea niya, “Kik itim gima chalo kamano! Gima iwacho kuom Ishmael ok adiera.”
