Jeremiah 43
1 And it came to pass, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking unto the whole people all the words of the Lord their God, with which the Lord their God had sent him to them, [namely, ] all these words,
Rĩrĩa Jeremia aarĩkirie kũhe andũ acio ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova Ngai wao, ũhoro ũrĩa wothe Jehova aamũtũmĩte akameere-rĩ,
2 That then spoke 'Azaryah the son of Hosha'yah, and Jochanan the son of Kareach, and all the presumptuous men, saying unto Jeremiah, Thou speakest falsely: the Lord our God hath not sent thee to say, Ye shall not go into Egypt to sojourn there;
Azaria mũrũ wa Hoshaia, na Johanani mũrũ wa Karea, marĩ hamwe na andũ othe arĩa etĩĩi, makĩĩra Jeremia atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩũraheenania! Jehova Ngai witũ ndagũtũmĩte ũũke ũtwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Mũtikanathiĩ bũrũri wa Misiri gũtũũra kuo.’
3 But Baruch the son of Neriyah setteth thee on against us, in order to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they may put us to death, or carry us away as exiles to Babylon.
No rĩrĩ, Baruku mũrũ wa Neria nĩwe ũkũringĩrĩirie ũtũũkĩrĩre, nĩguo tũneanwo kũrĩ andũ a Babuloni, nĩguo matũũrage, kana matũtahe, matũtware Babuloni.”
4 So Jochanan the son of Kareach, and all the captains of the armies, and all the people, hearkened not to the voice of the Lord, to remain in the land of Judah.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Johanani mũrũ wa Karea marĩ hamwe na anene othe a mbũtũ cia ita, o na andũ othe, makĩrega gwathĩkĩra watho wa Jehova wa gũikara kũu bũrũri wa Juda.
5 But Jochanan the son of Kareach, and all the captains of the armies, took all the remnant of Judah, that were returned from all the nations, whither they had been driven, to sojourn in the land of Judah;
Handũ ha ũguo, Johanani mũrũ wa Karea hamwe na anene othe a mbũtũ cia ita magĩtongoria matigari mothe ma andũ a Juda, o acio macookete nĩguo maikare kũu bũrũri wa Juda moimĩte ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ ciothe kũrĩa mahurunjĩtwo.
6 The men, and the women, and the children, and the king's daughters, and every person that Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left with Gedalyahu the son of Achikam the son of Shaphan; and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriyah;
Ningĩ magĩtongoria arũme othe, na andũ-a-nja na ciana, o na airĩtu a mũthamaki acio Nebuzaradani mũnene wa arangĩri a mũthamaki aatigĩire Gedalia mũrũ wa Ahikamu, mũrũ wa Shafani, o na magĩtongoria Jeremia ũcio mũnabii, na Baruku mũrũ wa Neria.
7 And they entered into the land of Egypt; for they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord; and they came as far as Thachpanches.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩthiĩ bũrũri wa Misiri, makĩremera Jehova, na magĩthiĩ o nginya Tahapanahesi.
8 Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah in Thachpanches, saying,
Na marĩ kũu Tahapanahesi, ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova ĩgĩkinyĩra Jeremia, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
9 Take great stones in thy hand, and hide them in the mortar in the brick-kiln which is at the entrance of Pharaoh's house in Thachpanches, before the eyes of the Jewish men;
“Oya mahiga manene na guoko gwaku, Ayahudi makwĩroreire, ũthiĩ ũmathike na rĩũmba hau nja haarĩtwo maturubarĩ itoonyero-inĩ rĩa nyũmba ya Firaũni kũu Tahapanahesi.
10 And thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Behold, I will send for and take Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and I will set his throne above these stones that I have hidden; and he shall spread his royal pavilion over them.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo ũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli, ekuuga: Nĩngũtũmanĩra ndungata yakwa Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni, na nĩngahaanda gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũthamaki igũrũ rĩa mahiga maya ndathika haha; nĩakamba hema yake ya ũnene igũrũ rĩamo.
11 And he shall come and smite the land of Egypt: such as are destined for death shall be given to death; and such as are destined for captivity, to captivity; and such as are destined for the sword, to the sword.
Nĩagooka atharĩkĩre bũrũri wa Misiri, oragithie andũ arĩa maathĩrĩirio gũkua, na atũme arĩa maathĩrĩirio gũtahwo matahwo, nao arĩa maathĩrĩirio kũũragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora mooragwo naruo.
12 And I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt, and he shall burn them, and carry them away captive: and he shall wrap around him the land of Egypt, as a shepherd wrappeth his garment around him; and he shall go forth from there in peace.
Nĩagacina hekarũ cia ngai cia Misiri; agaacina hekarũ ciao na atahe ngai ciao. O ta ũrĩa mũrĩithi ehumbaga nguo yake, noguo akehumba bũrũri wa Misiri, acooke oime kuo atarĩ mũhutie.
13 And he shall break the statues of Bethshemesh, which is in the land of Egypt; and the houses of the gods of the Egyptians shall he burn with fire.
Nĩakoinanga itugĩ iria ihooyagwo, iria irĩ thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya riũa kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, na acooke acine hekarũ cia ngai cia bũrũri wa Misiri ithire.’”
