Jeremiah 7
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Ma e wach mane obirone Jeremia koa kuom Jehova Nyasaye:
2 "Stand in the gate of the LORD's house, and proclaim there this word, and say, 'Hear the word of the LORD, all you of Judah, who enter in at these gates to worship the LORD.
“Chungi e dhorangach mar od Jehova Nyasaye kendo kanyo land wachni: “‘Winjuru wach Jehova Nyasaye, un jo-Juda duto madonjo gie dhorangeyegi mondo olam Jehova Nyasaye.
3 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, Nyasach jo-Israel, wacho: Lok yoreu kod timbeu, to anami udagi kaye.
4 Do not trust in lying words, saying, "The LORD's temple, The LORD's temple, The LORD's temple, are these."
Kik ugen kuom weche mag miriambo ka uwacho niya, “Ma en hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye!”
5 For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings; if you thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor;
Ka uloko yoreu gi timbeu adier kendo ungʼadone ngʼato ka ngʼato bura makare,
6 if you do not oppress the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your own hurt:
kendo ka ok umayo jadak, kiye kata mon ma chwogi otho kendo ok uchwero remb joma onge ketho, kendo ka ok uluwo bangʼ nyiseche manono ma dihinyu un uwegi,
7 then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even forevermore.
to anami udag kae, e piny mane amiyo kwereu mondo odagie manyaka chiengʼ.
8 Look, you trust in lying words, that can't profit.
To neuru, ugeno kuom weche mag miriambo maonge tich.
9 Will you steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods that you have not known,
“‘Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, Bende unukwal kendo uneki, uterru kendo ukwongʼru gi miriambo, uwangʼ ubani ni Baal kendo ulu bangʼ nyiseche manono ma pod ok ungʼeyo,
10 and come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, "We are delivered"; that you may do all these abominations?
to bangʼe ubiro kendo uchungʼ e nyima e odni, ma Nyinga nitie, kendo uwacho ni, “Wasetony” utony mondo utim gik mamonogi?
11 Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Look, I, even I, have seen it, says the LORD.
Dibedi ni odni, ma iluongogo Nyinga, osebedonu kar pondo mar jomecho? To neuru arange! An Jehova Nyasaye ema asewacho kamano.
12 But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.
“‘Koro dhi sani kama iluongo ni Shilo kama ne akwongo alosoe kar dak mar Nyinga, kendo mondo ine gima ne atimone nikech timbe mamono mag joga Israel.
13 Now, because you have done all these works, says the LORD, and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you did not hear; and I called you, but you did not answer:
E sa ma ne utimo gigi duto, Jehova Nyasaye wacho, ne awuoyo kodu anwoya, to ne ok uchiko itu; ne aluongou, to ne ok udwoka.
14 therefore I will do to the house which is called by my name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh.
Emomiyo, gima ne atimone Shilo koro abiro timo ne ot miluongogo Nyinga, hekalu ma ugeno kuomeno, kama ne amiyou kod wuoneu.
15 I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brothers, all the descendants of Ephraim.
Anadaru e nyima, mana kaka ne atimone oweteu duto, ma jo-Efraim.’
16 Therefore do not pray for this people, neither lift up a cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me; for I will not hear you.
“Omiyo kik ilamne jogi kata chiwo kwayo moro amora kata kwayonegi lamo; kik isaya, nimar ok anawinji.
17 Do you not see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Bende ineno gima gitimo e mier mag Juda kod yore mag Jerusalem?
18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
Nyithindo choko yien, wuone moko mach, to mon dwalo mogo mondo gilos godo makati ne Ruoth ma Dhako mar Polo. Gichiwo misango miolo piny ne nyiseche manono mondo ochwanya ma mi iya wangʼ.
19 Do they provoke me to anger?" says the LORD. "Do they not provoke themselves, to the confusion of their own faces?"
To uparo ni An ema gichwanyo? Jehova Nyasaye penjo. Donge gihinyore kendgi, kendo gikelo wichkuot ne gin giwegi?
20 Therefore thus says the LORD: "Look, my anger and my wrath shall be poured out on this place, on man, and on animal, and on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched."
“‘Emomiyo ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: Ich wangʼ mara kod mirimba nool kaeni, kuom dhano kod le, kuom yiende manie puothe kod kuom olembe mag lowo, kendo nowangʼ ma ok nyal neg majno.
21 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: "Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices, and eat meat.
“‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel wacho: Dhiuru nyime, meduru chiwo magu mag misengini miwangʼo pep e misengini magu mamoko kendo ucham ringʼogo un uwegi!
22 For I did not speak to your fathers, nor command them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:
Nimar kane agolo kwereu Misri kendo awuoyo kodgi, ne ok amiyogi mana chike kuom misango miwangʼo pep kod misengini mamoko,
23 but this thing I commanded them, saying, 'Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people; and walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.'
to ne achiwo chikni: Luorauru, to anabed Nyasachu kendo unubed joga. Wuothuru e yore duto machikou, mondo duto odhi kodu maber.
24 But they did not listen nor turn their ear, but walked in their own counsels and in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
To ne ok gichiko itgi kata winja; makmana, negiluwo timbegi mag tok teko mag chunjegi maricho. Negidok chien ma ok gidhi nyime.
25 Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt to this day, I have sent to you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them:
Kochakore e kinde mane kwereu oa Misri nyaka sani, odiechiengʼ ka odiechiengʼ, ne asiko aoronegi jotich ma jonabi.
26 yet they did not listen to me, nor inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff: they did worse than their fathers."
To ne ok gichiko itgi kata winja. Tokgi ne tek ta kendo negitimo gik maricho moloyo mag kweregi.’
27 "You shall speak all these words to them; but they will not listen to you: you shall also call to them; but they will not answer you.
“Ka inyisogi magi duto, ok giniwinji; ka iluongogi, ok gini miyi dwoko.
28 You shall tell them, 'This is the nation that has not listened to the voice of the LORD their God, nor received instruction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.
Emomiyo wachnegi ni, ‘Ma en oganda mapok omiyo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache luor kata ok giwinj puonj. Adiera oselalnigi; kendo osea e dhogi.
29 Cut off your hair, and throw it away, and take up a lamentation on the bare heights; for the LORD has rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.'"
“‘Lieluru yie wiyeu oko kendo uwitgi; ywaguru e kuonde motingʼore malo motwo, nimar Jehova Nyasaye osekwedo kendo osejwangʼo tiengʼni mantiere e bwo mirimbe.
30 "For the people of Judah have done that which is evil in my sight," says the LORD: "they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it.
“‘Jehova Nyasaye wacho ni jo-Juda osetimo timbe maricho e nyima. Giseketo nyisechegi manono e ot ma Nyinga nitiere kendo gisenjawe.
31 They have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the Valley of Ben Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I did not command, nor did it come into my mind.
Gisegero kuonde motingʼore malo mar Tofeth e Holo mar Ben Hinom mondo gi wangʼ yawuotgi kod nyigi e mach ma en gima ne ok achiko, kata ne ok odonjo e pacha.
32 Therefore look, the days come," says the LORD, "that it shall no more be called Topheth, nor The Valley of Ben Hinnom, but The Valley of Slaughter: for they shall bury in Topheth, until there is no place to bury.
Omiyo bed motangʼ, ndalo biro, Jehova Nyasaye owacho, ma ji ok nochak oluonge ni Tofeth kata Holo mar Ben Hinom, to ni Holo mar Yengʼo, nimar giniyik joma otho ei Tofeth maonge thuolo modongʼ.
33 The dead bodies of this people shall be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth; and none shall frighten them away.
Eka ringre jogi nobed chiemo mar winy mafuyo e kor polo kod le mag bungu manie piny, kendo onge ngʼama nobwog-gi mondo gia.
34 Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for the land shall become a waste."
Anatieki koko mar ilo gi mor kendo gi dwond miaha kod wuon kisera e dala Juda kod yore mag Jerusalem, nimar piny nodongʼ gunda.
