Jeremiah 46
1 The word of the LORD which came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations.
Ma e wach Jehova Nyasaye mane obirone janabi Jeremia kuom ogendini:
2 Of Egypt: concerning the army of Pharaoh-neco king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah.
Kuom Misri: Ma e ote ne jolwenj Farao Neko ruodh Misri, mane oloo Karkemish e Aora mar Yufrate gi Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon e higa mar angʼwen mar Jehoyakim wuod Josia ruodh Juda:
3 Make ready buckler and shield, and draw near to battle.
“Ikuru okumba magu, madongo kod matindo, kendo uwuog udhi e kedo!
4 Harness the horses, and mount, ye horsemen, and stand forth with your helmets; furbish the spears, put on the coats of mail.
Gauru farese, idhuru farese! Kawuru kereu kurwako oguteu mag lweny! Piaguru tongeu, rwakuru okumba mau!
5 Wherefore do I see them dismayed and turned backward? and their mighty ones are beaten down, and they are fled apace, and look not back; terror is on every side, saith the LORD.
En angʼo ma aneno? Kihondko ogoyogi, kendo giringo ka gia kar lweny nikech thuondi mag-gi mag lweny oselo. Giringo ka luoro omakogi ma ok gingʼi ngʼegi, kendo gin-gi luoro malich koni gi koni,” Jehova Nyasaye wacho.
6 The swift cannot flee away, nor the mighty man escape; in the north by the river Euphrates have they stumbled and fallen.
“Joma yot ok nyal ringo kata joma otegno ok nyal tony. E yo nyandwat but Aora Yufrate gichwanyore kendo gipodho.
7 Who is this like the Nile that riseth up, like the rivers whose waters toss themselves?
“Ma en ngʼa magingore ka aora Nael kendo mana ka aore ma pigegi bubni?
8 Egypt is like the Nile that riseth up, and like the rivers whose waters toss themselves; and he saith: 'I will rise up, I will cover the earth, I will destroy the city and the inhabitants thereof.'
Misri bubni ka aora Nael kendo mana ka aore ma pigegi bubni. Owacho ni, ‘Abiro gingora kendo anapongʼ piny; anaketh mier madongo kod ji modakie.’
9 Prance, ye horses, and rush madly, ye chariots; and let the mighty men go forth: Cush and Put, that handle the shield, and the Ludim, that handle and bend the bow.
Wuoguru, yaye farese! Yaye, un joriemb geche, riembgiuru matek! Dhiuru nyime, yaye un jolweny machwo moa Kush, gi Put motingʼo okumbini, kaachiel gi chwo Lidia maywayo atungʼ.
10 For the Lord GOD of hosts shall have on that day a day of vengeance, that He may avenge Him of His adversaries; and the sword shall devour and be satiate, and shall be made drunk with their blood; for the Lord GOD of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.
To odiechiengno en mar Ruoth, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ma en odiechiengʼ, ma ochuloe kuor ni wasike. Ligangla noneki nyaka owinj ni orome, kendo nyaka otiek riyo mare gi remo. Nimar Ruoth, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, nochiw misango e piny mantie yo nyandwat but Aora Yufrate.
11 Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin daughter of Egypt; in vain dost thou use many medicines; there is no cure for thee.
“Dhiyo nyaka Gilead kendo imany yath, yaye Nyar Misri Mangili. To kata obedo ni imedo manyo yedhe to imenyo kayiem kendo ok inichangi.
12 The nations have heard of thy shame, and the earth is full of thy cry; for the mighty man hath stumbled against the mighty, they are fallen both of them together.
Ogendini nowinj wichkuot momaki; ywakni nopongʼ piny. Jolweny nochwanyre kuom moro ka moro; giduto ginipodhi kanyakla.”
13 The word that the LORD spoke to Jeremiah the prophet, how that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon should come and smite the land of Egypt.
Ma e ote mane Jehova Nyasaye owachone Jeremia janabi kuom biro Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon mondo omonj Misri:
14 Declare ye in Egypt, and announce in Migdol, and announce in Noph and in Tahpanhes; say ye: 'Stand forth, and prepare thee, for the sword hath devoured round about thee.'
“Land wachni e piny Misri, kendo igo milome e Migdol; Memfis gi Tapanhes ni: ‘Kawuru kereu kendo ikreuru, nimar ligangla nego jogo molwori.’
15 Why is thy strong one overthrown? He stood not, because the LORD did thrust him down.
En angʼo momiyo jolweny magu opie piny? Ok ginyal chungʼ, nimar Jehova Nyasaye nolwargi piny.
16 He made many to stumble; yea, they fell one upon another, and said: 'Arise, and let us return to our own people, and to the land of our birth, from the oppressing sword.'
Ginichwanyre moluwore oluwore; giniluowre kuom jowetegi. Giniwachi ni, ‘Aa malo, wadog ir jowa wawegi; kendo e pinywa owuon, mabor gi ligangla mar joma thiro ji.’
17 They cried there: 'Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he hath let the appointed time pass by.'
E kanyono giniwach ni, ‘Farao ruodh Misri en mana jakoko matek, nikech thuolo mane en-go nobaye.’”
18 As I live, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts, surely like Tabor among the mountains, and like Carmel by the sea, so shall he come.
Ruoth wacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon, ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ngʼato achiel nobi machalo gi Tabor e dier gode, kata ka Got Karmel mantie but nam.
19 O thou daughter that dwellest in Egypt, furnish thyself to go into captivity; for Noph shall become a desolation, and shall be laid waste, without inhabitant.
Pang gigi mar dhiyoe twech, un joma odak Misri, nimar Memfis nowe gunda, kendo tieke chuth maonge ngʼama nodagie.”
20 Egypt is a very fair heifer; but the gadfly out of the north is come, it is come.
“Misri en nyaroya maber neno, to kalabugo birone koa yo nyandwat.
21 Also her mercenaries in the midst of her are like calves of the stall, for they also are turned back, they are fled away together, they did not stand; for the day of their calamity is come upon them, the time of their visitation.
Jolweny mondiki chal gi nyiroye machwe. Gin bende ginilokre kendo giring kanyakla, ok giniriti, nimar odiechiengʼ mar masira biro kuomgi, kinde margi mar kum.
22 The sound thereof shall go like the serpent's; for they march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.
Misri nokudhi ka thuol maringo ka jasigu masudo machiegni gi teko; giniked kode gi ledhi, mana ka chwo matongʼo yiende.”
23 They cut down her forest, saith the LORD, though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the locusts, and are innumerable.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Ginibet bungu mare, kata obedo ni oyugno kamano. Gingʼeny moloyo dede, ok nyal kwan-gi.
24 The daughter of Egypt is put to shame; she is delivered into the hand of the people of the north.
Nyar Misri nomi wichkuot, kendo nochiwe ne jogo moa yo nyandwat.”
25 The LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saith: Behold, I will punish Amon of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with her gods, and her kings; even Pharaoh, and them that trust in him;
Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho niya, “Achiegni kelo kum kuom Amon ma nyasach Thebes, kuom Farao, kuom Misri gi nyisechene kod ruodhi mage, kod jogo mogeno kuom Farao.
26 and I will deliver them into the hand of those that seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants; and afterwards it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old, saith the LORD.
Anachiwgi ne jogo madwaro ngimagi, ne Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon gi jotende. To kata kamano ji nodhi nyime dak Misri kaka chon,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
27 But fear not thou, O Jacob My servant, neither be dismayed, O Israel; for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall again be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.
“Kik iluor; yaye jatichna Jakobo; bende kik ibwogi, yaye Israel. Adiera abiro resi e piny mabor, kaachiel gi nyikwayi e piny mane otergie twech. Jakobo nodhi nyime ka nigi kwe gi dak maonge luoro, kendo onge ngʼama nobwoge.
28 Fear not thou, O Jacob My servant, saith the LORD, for I am with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee, but I will not make a full end of thee; and I will correct thee in measure, but will not utterly destroy thee.
Kik iluor, yaye Jakobo jatichna, nimar an kodi. Kata obedo ni atieko ogendini duto ma asekeyou e diergi, ok anatieku chuth. Anakumu to mana gi bura makare; ok anaweu ngangʼ ma ok akumou,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
