< Jeremiah 27 >

1 In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, came this word unto Jeremiah from the LORD, saying:
E chakruok mar loch Zedekia wuod Josia ruodh Juda, wachni nobiro ne Jeremia koa ir Jehova Nyasaye:
2 'Thus saith the LORD to me: Make thee bands and bars, and put them upon thy neck;
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye nowachona: “Los jok gi tol kod lodi moriw kendo ikete e ngʼuti.
3 and send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the children of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Zidon, by the hand of the messengers that come to Jerusalem unto Zedekiah king of Judah;
Eka ior wach ne ruodhi mag Edom, Moab, Amon, Turo kod Sidon kokalo kuom jombetre mosebiro Jerusalem ir Zedekia ruodh Juda.
4 and give them a charge unto their masters, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Thus shall ye say unto your masters:
Migi ote mar jotendgi kendo iwachi ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ma, Nyasach Israel, wacho: “Nyisuru jotendu kama:
5 I have made the earth, the man and the beast that are upon the face of the earth, by My great power and by My outstretched arm; and I give it unto whom it seemeth right unto Me.
Kuom tekona maduongʼ asechweyo piny gi joge kod le duto manie iye, kendo achiwo gigagi ne ngʼato angʼata mahero.
6 And now have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, My servant; and the beasts of the field also have I given him to serve him.
Koro anachiw pinjeu ne jatichna Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon; anami kata le mag bungu winje.
7 And all the nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son's son, until the time of his own land come; and then many nations and great kings shall make him their bondman.
Ogendini duto notine kod wuode kod nyakware ma wuowi nyaka kinde mar pinye chopi; eka pinje mangʼeny kod ruodhi maroteke nokete obed jatichgi.
8 And it shall come to pass, that the nation and the kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I visit, saith the LORD, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.
“‘“Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya: Kapo ni piny kata gwengʼ moro amora ok noti ne Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon kata kulo wiye e bwo jok mare, to anakum pinyno gi ligangla, kech kod masira, nyaka ane ni atieke gi lwete.
9 But as for you, hearken ye not to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor to your dreams, nor to your soothsayers, nor to your sorcerers, that speak unto you, saying: Ye shall not serve the king of Babylon;
Omiyo kik uchik itu ne jonabi magu, jokor wach magu, joloknu lek, jo-nyakalondo kata ajuoke magu manyisou ni ok unutine ruodh Babulon.
10 for they prophesy a lie unto you, to remove you far from your land; and that I should drive you out and ye should perish.
Gikoronu miriambo ma biro miyo idarou mabor gi pinyu; anariembu kendo unutho.
11 But the nation that shall bring their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him, that nation will I let remain in their own land, saith the LORD; and they shall till it, and dwell therein.'
To ka oganda moro amora enokulre e bwo jok mar ruodh Babulon mi otine, to anami ogandano odongʼ e pinye owuon mondo opure kendo mondo odagi kanyo, Jehova Nyasaye owacho.”’”
12 And I spoke to Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying: 'Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live.
Ne amiyo Zedekia ruodh Juda wach achielni. Ne awacho niya, “Kul wiyi e bwo jok mar ruodh Babulon; tine kod joge, to ibiro dak.
13 Why will ye die, thou and thy people, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as the LORD hath spoken concerning the nation that will not serve the king of Babylon?
Angʼo madimi in kod jogi tho e dho ligangla, kech kod masira mano ma Jehova Nyasaye osechano timo ni ogendini ma ok bi tiyone ruodh Babulon?
14 And hearken not unto the words of the prophets that speak unto you, saying: Ye shall not serve the king of Babylon, for they prophesy a lie unto you.
Kik uchik itu ne jonabi mawachonu ni, ‘Ok ubi tiyone ruodh Babulon,’ nimar gikoronu miriambo.
15 For I have not sent them, saith the LORD, and they prophesy falsely in My name; that I might drive you out, and that ye might perish, ye, and the prophets that prophesy unto you.'
Jehova Nyasaye wacho ni, ‘Ok aorogi. Gikoro miriambo e nyinga. Emomiyo, anariembu kendo unulal nono, un kaachiel gi jonabi ma koronu.’”
16 Also I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying: 'Thus saith the LORD: Hearken not to the words of your prophets that prophesy unto you, saying: Behold, the vessels of the LORD'S house shall now shortly be brought back from Babylon; for they prophesy a lie unto you.
Eka ne awachone jodolo kod jogi duto niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Kik uchik itu ne jonabi mawacho ni, ‘Machiegnini koro gigo duto moa e od Jehova Nyasaye ibiro duogi koa Babulon.’ Gikoronu miriambo.
17 Hearken not unto them; serve the king of Babylon, and live; wherefore should this city become desolate?
Kik iwinjgi. Tine ruodh Babulon, to inibed mangima. Angʼo momiyo dala maduongʼni nyaka kethi?
18 But if they be prophets, and if the word of the LORD be with them, let them now make intercession to the LORD of hosts, that the vessels which are left in the house of the LORD, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, go not to Babylon.
Ka gin jonabi kendo gin-gi wach Jehova Nyasaye, to mondo gikwa Jehova Nyasaye Maratego gigo mabeyo modongʼ e od Jehova Nyasaye kod e kar dak mar ruodh Juda kod e Jerusalem kik ter Babulon.
19 For thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the residue of the vessels that remain in this city,
Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho kuom sirni, Nam, gik minyalo tingʼ kod gik mamoko modongʼ e dala maduongʼni,
20 which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took not, when he carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon, and all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem;
mane Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon ne ok okawo sa mane otero Jehoyakin wuod Jehoyakim ruodh Juda e twech kogole Jerusalem nyaka Babulon kaachiel gi joka ruoth moa Juda gi Jerusalem,
21 yea, thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning the vessels that remain in the house of the LORD, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem:
ee, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho kuom gigo mane odongʼ e od Jehova Nyasaye kendo e kar dak mar ruodh Juda kod e Jerusalem:
22 They shall be carried to Babylon, and there shall they be, until the day that I remember them, saith the LORD, and bring them up, and restore them to this place.'
‘Notergi Babulon kendo kanyo ginidongʼ nyaka odiechiengʼ ma anabi kawogie. Eka anadwog-gi kendo aketgi kae.’” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
