< Jeremiah 34 >

1 The word which came to Jeremiah from YHWH, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of it, saying:
Ka Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon kod jolweny mage duto gi pinjeruodhi duto gi ji duto mane ni e gwengʼ mane orito ne kedo gi Jerusalem kod dala mane olwore duto, wachni nobiro ne Jeremia koa ir Jehova Nyasaye:
2 "Thus says YHWH, the God of Israel, 'Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, "Thus says YHWH, 'Look, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire:
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach Israel, wacho: Dhi ir Zedekia ruodh Juda kendo inyise kama, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Achiegni chiwo dala maduongʼni ne ruodh Babulon, kendo enowangʼe pep.
3 and you shall not escape out of his hand, but shall surely be taken, and delivered into his hand; and your eyes shall see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he shall speak with you mouth to mouth, and you shall go to Babylon.'
Ok initony ngangʼ e wachni to adiera enomaki kendo nochiwi ne en. Inine ruodh Babulon gi wengeni iwuon, kendo enowuo kodi wangʼ gi wangʼ kendo inidhi Babulon.
4 Yet hear the word of YHWH, O Zedekiah king of Judah: thus says YHWH concerning you, 'You shall not die by the sword;
“‘Kata kamano winj singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye, yaye Zedekia ruodh Juda. Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho kuomi: Ok enonegi gi ligangla;
5 you shall die in peace; and with the burnings of your fathers, the former kings who were before you, so shall they make a burning for you; and they shall lament you, saying, "Ah Lord." for I have spoken the word,' says YHWH."'"
initho gi kwe. Kaka ji noloso mach mar liel mar miyo wuonu luor; ruodhi machon mane otelo nyimi, mondo omi gilos mach mar miyi luor kendo mar ywak, “Aa, yaye jatelo!” An awuon aketo singoni, Jehova Nyasaye owacho.’”
6 Then Jeremiah the prophet spoke all these words to Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,
Eka Jeremia janabi nonyiso Zedekia ruodh Juda gigo duto e Jerusalem,
7 when the king of Babylon's army was fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish and against Azekah; for these alone remained of the cities of Judah as fortified cities.
sa mane jolweny mar ruodh Babulon ne kedo gi Jerusalem kod mier madongo mamoko mag Juda mane pod odongʼ, ma gin Lakish kod Azeka. Magi kende e mier madongo mochiel motegno gohinga mane odongʼ e Juda.
8 The word that came to Jeremiah from YHWH, after that the king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people who were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty to them;
Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia bangʼ ka Zedekia noloso winjruok gi ji duto man Jerusalem mondo oland ni wasumbini owe thuolo.
9 that every man should let his male servant, and every man his female servant, who is a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, go free; that none should keep a fellow Judean in bondage.
Ngʼato ka ngʼato ne onego we misumbane ma ja-Hibrania, madichwo kod ma dhako; onge ngʼama ne dongʼ gi ja-Yahudi wadgi e twech.
10 And all the officials and all the people obeyed, who had entered into the covenant, that everyone should let his male servant, and everyone his female servant, go free, that none should make bondservants of them any more; they obeyed, and let them go:
Omiyo jotelo duto kod ji mane odonjo e winjruokni noyie ni giniwe thuolo wasumbini mag-gi machwo kod mamon kendo ok ginibed e twech kendo. Ne giyie, kendo ne giwegi thuolo.
11 but afterwards they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids, whom they had let go free, to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.
To bangʼe negiloko pachgi mi gikawo kendo wasumbinigi mane giseweyo thuolo mi giketogi gibedo wasumbini kendo.
12 Therefore the word of YHWH came to Jeremiah from YHWH, saying,
Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia kama:
13 "Thus says YHWH, the God of Israel: 'I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying,
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach Israel, wacho: Ne aketo winjruok gi kwereu mane agologi gia Misri, e piny mar bedo misumba. Ne awacho ni,
14 "At the end of seven years you shall let go every man his brother who is a Hebrew, who has been sold to you, and has served you six years, you shall let him go free from you": but your fathers did not listen to me, neither inclined their ear.
‘E higa mar abiriyo ka higa mar abiriyo ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu nyaka we ja-Hibrania wadgi thuolo ma osebedo katiyone. Bangʼ ka osetiyone kuom higni auchiel, nyaka iweye thuolo.’ Wuoneu, kata kamano, ne ok owinja kata luoro chikna.
15 You had now turned, and had done that which is right in my eyes, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbor; and you had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name:
Kinde mosekadho machiegni, ne ikwayo weruok kendo ne itimo gima nikare e nyim wangʼa: Un duto ne uyie weyo oweteu thuolo. Bende ne utimo singruok e nyima e ot motingʼo Nyinga.
16 but you turned and profaned my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom you had let go free at their pleasure, to return; and you brought them into subjection, to be to you for servants and for handmaids.
To koro uselokoru kendo usedwanyo nyinga; uduto usekawo wasumbini machwo kod mamon mane useweyo thuolo mondo gidhi kama gidwaro. Usechunogi mondo gibed wasumbini magu kendo.
17 Therefore thus says YHWH: "You have not listened to me, to proclaim liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbor: look, I proclaim to you a liberty, says YHWH, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth.
“Emomiyo, ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Pod ok uluora; pod ok uyie weyo oweteu thuolo. Omiyo koro awacho mondo owenu thuolo mondo onegu gi ligangla, masiche kod kech. Anami ogendini manie piny duto bedo gibuok ka ginenou.
18 I will give the men who have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me, when they cut the calf in two and passed between its parts;
Chwo duto ma oseketho winjruokna kendo pod ok ochopo winjruok mane giloso e nyima, nakawgi ka nyaroya mane gingʼado nyadiriyo kendo giwuotho e kind lemogo.
19 the officials of Judah, and the officials of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, who passed between the parts of the calf;
Jotend Juda gi Jerusalem, jotelo mag agola, jodolo kod ji duto mag pinyni mane owuotho e kind lemo ariyogo,
20 I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life; and their dead bodies shall be for food to the birds of the sky, and to the animals of the earth.
anachiwgi ne wasikgi madwaro ngimagi. Ringregi motho nobed chiemb winy mafuyo e kor polo kod le manie piny.
21 And Zedekiah king of Judah and his officials will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, who have gone away from you.
“Anachiw Zedekia ruodh Juda kod jotende ne wasike madwaro ngimagi, ne jolwenj ruodh Babulon, mosengʼanyo oa kuomu.
22 Look, I will command, says YHWH, and cause them to return to this city; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire: and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant."'"
Anachiw chik, Jehova Nyasaye wacho, kendo anadwog-gi e dala maduongʼni. Giniked kode, ginikawe kendo giwangʼe pep. Kendo anaketh dala mag Juda mondo kik ngʼato angʼata dag kanyo.”
