Jeremiah 42
1 Then all the captains of the forces, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least even to the greatest, came near,
Eka jotend lweny duto, kaachiel gi Johanan wuod Karea kod Jezania wuod Hoshaya, kod ji duto chakre matin nyaka maduongʼ nodhi ir
2 and said to Jeremiah the prophet, "Please let our petition be presented before you, and pray for us to the LORD your God, even for all this remnant; for we are left but a few of many, as your eyes do see us:
janabi Jeremia kendo owachone niya, “Kiyie to iwinj kwayowa kendo ilamnwa Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi ne joma otonygi duto. Nimar kaka ineno sani, kata obedoni chon ne wangʼeny, to koro sani ji matin ema odongʼ.
3 that the LORD your God may show us the way in which we should walk, and the thing that we should do."
Lem mondo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi onyiswa kuma wanyalo dhiyoe kendo gima wanyalo timo.”
4 Then Jeremiah the prophet said to them, "I have heard you; look, I will pray to the LORD your God according to your words; and it shall happen that whatever thing the LORD shall answer you, I will declare it to you; I will keep nothing back from you."
Janabi Jeremia nodwoko niya, “Asewinjou. Adier nyaka analamnu Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha kaka usekwayo; ananyisu gimoro amora ma Jehova Nyasaye owacho kendo onge gima anapandnu.”
5 Then they said to Jeremiah, "The LORD be a true and faithful witness among us, if we do not do according to all the word with which the LORD your God shall send you to us.
Eka negiwachone Jeremia, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye bed ja-adiera kendo janeno makare kuomwa ka dipo ni timbewa ok oluwore gi gimoro ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi ooroi godo irwa.
6 Whether it be good, or whether it be evil, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God, to whom we send you; that it may be well with us, when we obey the voice of the LORD our God."
Kowinjore kata ka ok owinjore, wanaluor Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa, ma waori ire, mondo omi obed maber kodwa, nimar wanaluor Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa.”
7 It happened after ten days, that the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah.
Bangʼ ndalo apar wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia.
8 Then called he Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, and all the people from the least even to the greatest,
Omiyo noluongo Johanan wuod Karea kod jotend lweny mane ni kode kod ji duto chakre matin nyaka maduongʼ.
9 and said to them, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, to whom you sent me to present your petition before him:
Nowachonegi niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach Israel, mane uora ire mondo aterne kwayou, wacho:
10 'If you will still live in this land, then will I build you, and not pull you down, and I will plant you, and not pluck you up; for I grieve over the distress that I have brought on you.
‘Ka idak e pinyni, anageru kendo ok anatieku; anapidhu to ok pudhou oko, nimar asebedo gi lit kuom masiche masekelo kuomu.
11 Do not be afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom you are afraid; do not be afraid of him, says the LORD: for I am with you to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.
Kik uluor ruodh Babulon, makoro uluoro. Kik uluore, Jehova Nyasaye wacho, nimar an kodu kendo anaresu ua e lwetene.
12 I will grant you mercy, that he may have mercy on you, and cause you to return to your own land.'
Anatimnu ngʼwono mondo omi en bende ongʼwonnu kendo odwoku e pinyu.’
13 But if you say, 'We will not dwell in this land'; so that you do not obey the voice of the LORD your God,
“To ka uwacho, ‘Ok wanadagie pinyni,’ mamano mi ubed ma ok uluoro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu,
14 saying, 'No; but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we shall see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor have hunger of bread; and there will we dwell':
kendo ka uwacho ni, ‘Ooyo, wanadhi kendo wadag Misri, kama ok wana neye lweny kata winjo turumbete kata bedo gi kech mar makati,’
15 now therefore hear the word of the LORD, O remnant of Judah: Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, 'If you indeed set your faces to enter into Egypt, and go to live there;
to uwinj wach Jehova Nyasaye, yaye joma otony modongʼ mag Juda. Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: ‘Ka uramo ni nyaka udhi Misri kendo udhi udak kanyo,
16 then it shall happen, that the sword, which you fear, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt; and the famine, about which you are afraid, shall follow close behind you there in Egypt; and there you shall die.
to ngʼeuru ni ligangla ma uluoro nomaku, kendo kech mabwogou noluu nyaka Misri, kendo kanyo ema unuthoe.
17 So shall it be with all the men who set their faces to go into Egypt to live there: they shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence; and none of them shall remain or escape from the evil that I will bring on them.'
Adiera, jogo duto moramo mondo odhi odag Misri noneg gi ligangla, kech kod masira maonge ngʼato angʼata ma notony e chandruok mabiro kelo kuomgi.’
18 For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: 'As my anger and my wrath has been poured forth on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so shall my wrath be poured forth on you, when you shall enter into Egypt; and you shall be an object of horror, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach; and you shall see this place no more.'
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: ‘Kaka ich wangʼ mara kod mirimba aseolo kuom jogo modak Jerusalem, e kaka mirimba ibiro olo kuomu ka udhi Misri. Inibed gir kwongʼ kendo mabwogo ji, gima ingʼadogo bura kendo gir ajara; ok unuchak une kaeni kendo.’
19 The LORD has spoken concerning you, remnant of Judah, 'Do not go into Egypt': know certainly that I have testified to you this day.
“Yaye jo-Juda modongʼ, Jehova Nyasaye osenyisou ni, ‘Kik udhi Misri.’ Beduru gadiera kuom ma: Asiemou kawuono
20 For you have dealt deceitfully against your own souls; for you sent me to the LORD your God, saying, 'Pray for us to the LORD our God; and according to all that the LORD our God shall say, so declare to us, and we will do it':
ni ne uketho ketho malich kane uora ir Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kendo uwacho ni, ‘Lamnwa Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa; nyiswa gik moko duto mowacho kendo wanatim kamano.’
21 and I have this day declared it to you; but you have not obeyed the voice of the LORD your God in anything for which he has sent me to you.
Asewachonu kawuono, to pod ok uluoro Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kuom gigo duto mane oora mondo anyisu.
22 Now therefore know certainly that you shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, in the place where you desire to go to live there."
Omiyo koro, beduru gadieri kuom ma: Nonegu gi ligangla, kech kod masira kuma udwaro dhiye mondo udagie.”
