Jeremiah 20
1 Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the cohen, who was chief officer in the house of the LORD, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.
Rĩrĩa Pashuri ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, mũrũ wa Imeri, o ũcio warĩ mũnene wa arĩa angĩ kũu hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova, aiguire Jeremia akĩratha maũndũ macio-rĩ,
2 Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the Upper Gate of Benjamin, which was in the house of the LORD.
agĩathana Jeremia ũcio mũnabii ahũũrwo na oohererwo magũrũ ndungu-inĩ hau Kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa Rũgongo kĩa Benjamini, o kũu hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
3 It happened on the next day, that Pashhur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him, "The LORD has not called your name 'Pashhur,' but 'Magor-Missabib.'
Mũthenya ũcio warũmĩrĩire, rĩrĩa Pashuri aamuohorithirie ndungu magũrũ, Jeremia akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Rĩĩtwa rĩrĩa Jehova agũtuĩte ti Pashuri, no ũrĩĩtagwo Magori-Misabibu.
4 For thus says the LORD, 'Look, I will make you a terror to yourself, and to all your friends; and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes shall see it; and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive to Babylon, and shall kill them with the sword.
Nĩ ũndũ Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Nĩngũtũma ũtuĩke ta ũndũ wa kũguoyohia kũrĩ wee mwene o na wa kũmakia arata aku othe; nĩũkeyonera na maitho maku rĩrĩa andũ acio makooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora rwa thũ ciao. Nĩnganeana andũ a Juda othe kũrĩ mũthamaki wa Babuloni, nake amatahe amatware Babuloni, kana amooragithie na rũhiũ rwa njora.
5 Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all its gains, and all the precious things of it, yes, all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies; and they shall make them a prey, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.
Nĩnganeana ũtonga wothe wa itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene kũrĩ thũ ciao: maciaro marĩo mothe, indo ciothe ciarĩo cia bata, o na mĩthithũ yothe ya athamaki a Juda. Nĩmagacitaha macitware Babuloni.
6 You, Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house shall go into captivity; and you shall come to Babylon, and there you shall die, and there you shall be buried, you, and all your friends, to whom you have prophesied falsely.'"
Nawe Pashuri, na arĩa othe matũũraga gwaku nyũmba, nĩ mũgaatahwo mũtwarwo Babuloni. Kũu nĩkuo ũgaakuĩra na ũthikwo o kuo, wee hamwe na arata aku othe arĩa ũrathagĩra ũhoro wa maheeni.’”
7 LORD, you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded. You are stronger than I am, and have prevailed. I have become a laughing-stock all day long; everyone mocks me.
Wee Jehova, nĩwaheenereirie, na niĩ ngĩheeneka, wangĩririe hinya ũkĩĩhoota. Ndindaga ngĩthekererwo mũthenya wothe; nyũrũragio nĩ mũndũ o wothe.
8 For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, "Violence and destruction." because the word of the LORD is made a reproach to me, and a derision, all the day.
Rĩrĩa rĩothe ngwaria-rĩ, nyanagĩrĩra ngĩhunjanagĩria ũhoro wa maũndũ ma ũhinya, na ma mwanangĩko. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova ĩndeeheire o kũrumwo na kũnyararwo mũthenya wothe.
9 If I say, "I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name," then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I can't contain it.
No ingiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndigũcooka kũmũgweta kana kwaria ngĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩake,” ndũmĩrĩri yake ĩrĩa ĩrĩ ngoro-inĩ yakwa ĩhaana ta mwaki, o ta mwaki ũhingĩrĩirio mahĩndĩ-inĩ makwa. Nĩnogetio nĩkũmĩiga thĩinĩ wakwa, na ti-itherũ ndingĩhota.
10 For I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side. "Denounce, and we will denounce him," say all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall; "perhaps he will be persuaded, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him."
Nĩnjiguaga andũ aingĩ makĩheehana atĩrĩ, “Itua-nda rĩrĩ mĩena yothe! Nĩacukanĩrĩrwo! Nĩtũmũcuukanĩrĩre!” Arata akwa othe metereire ndenderũke, makiugaga atĩrĩ, “Hihi nĩekũheeneka; hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩtũkũmũtooria, twĩrĩhĩrie harĩ we.”
11 But the LORD is with me as an awesome mighty one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail; they shall be utterly disappointed, because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which shall never be forgotten.
No rĩrĩ, Jehova arĩ hamwe na niĩ ta njamba ĩrĩ hinya; nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ arĩa maanyariiraga nĩmakahĩngwo na matikahootana. Nĩmagaconorithio mũno nĩgũkorwo matigaatooria; kũnyararwo kwao gũtikariganĩra o na rĩ.
12 But, the LORD of hosts, who tests the righteous, who sees the heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance on them; for to you have I revealed my cause.
Wee Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, wee ũtuĩragia andũ arĩa athingu, na ũkoiruuria maũndũ ma ngoro na ma meciiria, reke ndĩĩonere wee ũkĩndĩhĩria harĩ andũ aya, nĩgũkorwo wee nĩwe ndekereirie maũndũ makwa mothe.
13 Sing to the LORD, praise the LORD; for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.
Inĩrai Jehova! Goocai Jehova! Nĩgũkorwo nĩahonokagia mĩoyo ya arĩa abatari, akamĩruta moko-inĩ ma arĩa aaganu.
14 Cursed is the day in which I was born: do not let the day in which my mother bore me be blessed.
Mũthenya ũrĩa ndaciarirwo ũrogwatwo nĩ kĩrumi! Mũthenya ũrĩa maitũ aanjiarire-rĩ, ũroaga kũrathimwo!
15 Cursed is the man who brought news to my father, saying, A boy is born to you; making him very glad.
Mũndũ ũrĩa waheire baba ũhoro ũcio arogwatwo nĩ kĩrumi, ũrĩa watũmire akene mũno, rĩrĩa aamwĩrire atĩrĩ, “Nĩũciarĩirwo mwana wa kahĩĩ!”
16 Let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and did not repent: and let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime;
Mũndũ ũcio-rĩ, arotuĩka o ta matũũra marĩa Jehova aangʼaũranirie atarĩ na tha. Arotũũra aiguaga mũkayo o rũciinĩ, na akaigua mbu ya mbaara mĩaraho.
17 because he did not kill me from the womb; and so my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.
Nĩ ũndũ ndanjũragire ndĩ nda ya maitũ, nĩguo maitũ atuĩke o taarĩ mbĩrĩra yakwa, nayo nda yake ĩtũũre ĩimbĩte nginya tene.
18 Why came I forth out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
Rĩu-rĩ, ndoimire nda ya maitũ nĩkĩ, nyonage o thĩĩna na kĩeha, na ndĩkĩrĩrie matukũ makwa njonokete?
