< Jeremiah 48 >

1 Of Moab. "Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: 'Woe to Nebo, because it is about to be destroyed; Kiriathaim will be put to shame, it will be taken captive. The fortress is put to shame and broken down.
To kuom Moab: Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel wacho: “Mano kaka nobed malit ne Nebo, nimar enokethe. Kiriathaim nokuod wiye kendo enomake; kar pondogi nobed kama inyiero kendo nomuke.
2 The praise of Moab is no more; in Heshbon they have devised evil against her: "Come, and let us cut her off from being a nation." You also, Madmen, shall be brought to silence: the sword shall pursue you.
Pak mar Moab ok nobedi kendo; ji nochan kethruokne ei Heshbon kagiwacho kama: ‘Biuru, watiek pinyni.’ Yaye joma odak Madmen, un bende ligangla nolawu mulingʼ thii.
3 The sound of a cry from Horonaim, "destruction and great calamity."
Winj ywak moa Horonaim, ywak mar duwruok maduongʼ gi kethruok.
4 Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
Moab nokethi; nyithinde matindo noywagre.
5 For by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping shall they go up; for at the descent of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.
Giidho ka giluwo yo madhi Luhith, gi ywak malit ka gidhi; e yo maridore kadhi Horonaim kendo ywak malit mar kethruok winjore.
6 "Flee, save your lives, and be like a shrub in the wilderness."
Ringuru! Ringuru ukony ngimau; muchal gi bungu manie thim!
7 For, because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures, you also shall be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity, his priests and his officials together.
Nikech ugeno kuom timbeu kod mwandu mau, un bende nomaku, kendo Kemosh noter e twech, kanyakla gi jodolo mage kod jotelo mage.
8 The destroyer shall come on every city, and no city shall escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed; as the LORD has spoken.
Jaketh gik moko nobi e dala ka dala kendo onge dala ma notony. Holo noum kendo got mar mesa nomuki, nikech Jehova Nyasaye osewacho.
9 Give wings to Moab, that she may fly and get her away: and her cities shall become a desolation, without any to dwell in them.'
Ket chumbi kuom Moab, nimar enotieke; miechgi nodongʼ gunda, maonge ngʼama nodagi eigi.
10 Cursed is he who does the work of the LORD negligently; and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.
“Okwongʼ ngʼat mayom yom e tich Jehova Nyasaye! Okwongʼ ngʼat ma okano liganglane ma ok ochwerogo remo!
11 'Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his lees, and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither has he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remains in him, and his scent is not changed.
“Moab oseyweyo chakre tin-ne, ka divai mowe mos e aguche, ma ok ool koa ei agulu achiel kiloko machielo kendo pod ok odhi e twech. Omiyo ndhathe pod nikare, kendo tik mare ok olokore.”
12 Therefore look, the days come,' says the LORD, 'that I will send to him those who pour off, and they shall pour him off; and they shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles in pieces.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Kinde biro, ma anaor ji manopuke oko, kendo gini ole oko; giniwe agulni mage nono kendo toyo agulni mage.
13 Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel their confidence.
Eka Moab wiye nokuodi gi Kemosh, mana kaka od Israel wiye nokuot, kane gin-gi geno kuom Bethel.
14 How can you say, "We are mighty men, and valiant men for the war?"
“Ere kaka inyalo wacho ni, ‘Wan jokedo, ji mathuondi maroteke e lweny’?”
15 Moab is laid waste, and they are gone up into his cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter,' says the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.
Ruoth, ma nyinge Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Moab nokethi kendo mier mage nomonji; yawuote mabeyo noter e kar nek.
16 The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hurries fast.
Podho mar Moab osechopone; masichene nobi mapiyo.
17 All you who are around him, bemoan him, and all you who know his name; say, "How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod."
Ywageuru, un jogo duto modak machiegni kode, un jogo duto mongʼeyo humbe; wachuru ni, ‘Mano kaka otur odunga mar loch maratego, mano kaka otur ludh duongʼ!’
18 You daughter who dwells in Dibon, come down from your glory, and sit in thirst; for the destroyer of Moab has come up against you, he has destroyed your strongholds.
“Auru malo e duongʼu ulor piny kendo ubedi e lowo motwo, yaye jodak mar Nyar Dibon, nimar ngʼama oketho Moab nobi mondo oked kodu, kendo otiek miechu madongo mochiel motegno gohinga.
19 Inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and watch: ask him who flees, and her who escapes; say, "What has been done?"
Chunguru e bath yo kendo ungʼi, un joma odak Aroer. Penj dichwo maringo kod dhako maringo, ni, Angʼo mosetimore?
20 "Moab is disappointed; for it is broken down: wail and cry; tell it by the Arnon, that Moab is laid waste."
Okuod wi Moab, nimar ongʼinje matindo tindo. Dengi kendo iywag matek! Land e Arnon ni Moab okethi.
21 Judgment has come on the plain country, on Holon, and on Jahzah, and on Mephaath,
Ngʼado bura osebiro e got mar mesa kuom Holon, Jaza kod Mefath,
22 and on Dibon, and on Nebo, and on Beth Diblathaim,
kuom Dibon, Nebo kod Beth Diblathaim,
23 and on Kiriathaim, and on Beth Gamul, and on Beth Meon,
kuom Kiriathaim, Beth Gamul kod Beth Mion,
24 and on Kerioth, and on Bozrah, and on all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
kuom Kerioth gi Bozra, kuom mier duto mag Moab, man mabor kod mago man machiegni.
25 The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken,' says the LORD.
Tung Moab ongʼad oko; bade otur,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
26 'Make him drunk; for he magnified himself against the LORD: and Moab shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
“Kete omer, nimar osetamore winjo Jehova Nyasaye. We Moab odwanyre e ngʼokne; we obed gima ijaro.
27 For wasn't Israel a derision to you? Was he found among thieves? For as often as you speak of him, you shake your head.
Donge Israel ema ne ijaro? Bende nomake e dier jokwoge, ma itengʼone wiyi gi achaya sa moro amora miwuoyo kuome?
28 You inhabitants of Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock; and be like the dove that makes her nest over the mouth of the abyss.
Jwangʼuru miechu kendo udagi e kind lwendni, un joma odak Moab. Chaluru ka akuch odugla maloso ode e dho rogo.
29 We have heard of the pride of Moab--he is very proud--of his pride, and his vanity, and his arrogance, and the haughtiness of his heart.
“Wasewinjo sunga mar Moab, sungane mokadhore gi miriambo, sunga mare gi jendeke mare kod ngʼayi mar chunye.”
30 I know his wrath,' says the LORD, 'that it is nothing; his boastings have worked nothing.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Angʼeyo mirimbe to oonge tiende, kendo ngʼayi mage ok nyal gimoro.
31 therefore I will wail for Moab; yes, I will cry out for all Moab; I will mourn for the men of Kir Heres.
Emomiyo aywak kadengo kuom Moab, nimar kuom Moab duto aywak, aywago jo-Kir Hareseth.
32 With more than the weeping of Jazer will I weep for you, vine of Sibmah: your branches passed over the sea, they reached even to Jazer; on your summer fruits and on your vintage the destroyer is fallen.
Aywagou, kaka Jazer ywak, yaye mzabibu mag Sibma. Bedeni kar machopo e nam; negichopo nyaka e nam mar Jazer. Jaketh gik moko osepodho e olembegi mochiek kod olemo mar mzabibu.
33 Gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to cease from the wine presses: none shall tread with shouting; the shouting shall be no shouting.
Ilo gi mor orumo e puoth olembe kod puothe mag Moab. Asechungo chwer mar divai koa e kuonde mibiyogie; onge ngʼama nyonogi gi koko mar ilo. Kata obedo ni nitiere koko, ok gin koko mar ilo.
34 From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealeh, even to Jahaz have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even to Horonaim, to Eglath Shelishiyah: for the waters of Nimrim also shall become desolate.
“Dwond ywak mag-gi winjore koa Heshbon nyaka Eleale gi Jahaz, koa Zoar nyaka chop Horonaim gi Eglath Shelishiya, nimar kata pige mag Nimrim bende osetwo.
35 And I will cause to cease in Moab,' says the LORD, 'the one who offers sacrifice upon the high place, and the one who burns incense to his gods.
E Moab anatiek jogo matimo misengini e kuonde motingʼore gi malo, kendo ma wangʼo ubani ne nyisechegi,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
36 Therefore my heart sounds for Moab like pipes, and my heart sounds like pipes for the men of Kir Heres: therefore the abundance that he has gotten is perished.
“Omiyo chunya ywagorene Moab ka asili; oywagore ka asili ne jo-Kir Hareseth. Mwandu mane giyudo oserumo.
37 For every head is bald, and every beard clipped: on all the hands are cuttings, and on the waist sackcloth.
Wich ka wich oliel kendo yie tik ka yie tik ongʼad oko; lwedo ka lwedo otongʼ oko kendo nungo ka nungo oum gi law ywak.
38 On all the housetops of Moab and in its streets there is lamentation every where; for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which none delights,' says the LORD.
Ewi tat udi duto man Moab kendo e laru mar galamoro onge gimoro makmana ywak, nimar aseketho Moab ka agulu motore maonge ngʼama dwaro,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
39 How it is broken down. How they wail. How Moab has turned the back with shame. So shall Moab become a derision and a terror to all who are around him.'
“Mano kaka otieke! Mano kaka gidengo! Mano kaka Moab loko ngʼeye kopondo nikech wichkuot! Moab osebedo gir ajara, gima bwogo ji duto man bute.”
40 For thus says the LORD: 'Look, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread out his wings against Moab.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Ne! Otenga fuyo kochiko piny, oyaro bwombene ewi Moab.
41 Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are seized, and the heart of the mighty men of Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
Kerioth nomaki kendo kuondegi mag pondo nokaw. E odiechiengno chunje mag jolwenj Moab nochal gi chuny dhako mamuoch kayo.
42 Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against the LORD.
Moab notieki kaka oganda nikech ne otamore winjo Jehova Nyasaye.
43 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are on you, inhabitant of Moab, says the LORD.
Masira maduongʼ gi bur matut kod otegu ritou, yaye jo-Moab,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
44 He who flees from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he who gets up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring on him, even on Moab, the year of their visitation,' says the LORD.
“Ngʼatno manotem tony nikech masira nolwar e bur matut, ngʼatno manotem kawuok ei bur matut, nomak gi obadho; nimar anakel magi kuom Moab e higa mar kum,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
45 'Those who fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon; for a fire has gone forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the city of Sihon, and it has destroyed the forehead of Moab, and the crown of the sons of tumult.
“E tipo mar Heshbon joma noringo odongʼ ka ok nyal, nimar mach osemoko liel Heshbon kendo ligek mach osewuok e dier Sihon; owangʼo lela wangʼ Moab, kod choke wich mag jongʼayigo!
46 Woe to you, O Moab. The people of Chemosh is undone; for your sons are taken away captive, and your daughters into captivity.
Mano kaka inine malit, yaye Moab! Jo-Kemosh otieki; yawuoti oter e twech, kendo nyigi oket wasumbini.
47 Yet will I bring back the captivity of Moab in the latter days,' says the LORD. Thus far is the judgment of Moab."
“Kata kamano anaduog gweth mag Moab e ndalo mabiro,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho. Ma e giko mar ngʼadone Moab bura.
